A（2021·江西南昌市·南昌二中高二期末）Most of us marry creativity to our concept of self either we're "creative" or we aren't, without much of a middle ground. "I'm just not a creative person!" a frustrated student might say in art class, while another might blame her talent at painting for her difficulties in math, giving a comment such as, "I'm very right-brained."Dr. Pillay, a tech entrepreneur and an assistant professor at Harvard University, has been challenging these ideas. He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to ignore the traditional advice that urges you to "believe in yourself." In fact, you should do the opposite: Believe you are someone else.Dr. Pillay points to a 2016 study demonstrating the impact of stereotypes on one's behavior; The authors. educational psychologists Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar, divided their college student subjects into three groups, instructing the members of one to think of themselves as "romantic poets" and the members of another to imagine they were "serious librarians" (the third group was the control). The researchers then presented all the participants with ten ordinary objects, including a fork, a carrot, and a pair of pants, and asked them to come up with as many different uses as possible for each one. Those who were asked to imagine themselves as romantic poets came up with the widest range of ideas, whereas those in the serious-librarian group had the fewest. Meanwhile, the researchers found only small differences in students' creativity levels across academic majors.These results suggest that creativity is not a fixed individual characteristic but a "malleable product of context and perspective, as long as he or she feels like a creative person. Dr. Pillay argues that, besides identifying yourself as creative, taking the bold, creative step of imagining you are somebody else is even more powerful. So, wish you were more creative? Just pretend!1．According to the passage，who is more likely to unlock his creative potential?A．An art major who always believes in himself.B．A math major who has excellent academic performanceC．A physics major who likes to imagine himself as a poet.D．A history major who works as a librarian on weekends.2．What does the Study conducted by Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar focus on?A．The creativity of the college students.B．The stereotypes of the college students.C．The impact of stereotypes on one's behaviorD．The influence of creativity on one's behavior.3．The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means__________?A．stable B．sustainable C．predicable D．changeable 4．Dr Pillay may agree with the statement that__________.A．there is no doubt that we are either creative or notB．a student who doesn't do well in art class is not creativeC．right brain determines whether a person is creative or notD．if we pretend to be creative，then we might be really creativeB（2021·湖南师大附中高三月考）Some people get more unwilling to take risks as the years go by. Not Gail MacCallum, who at age 40 quit a secure job and left the city she had enjoyed her whole adult life to step into the unknown.MacCallum spent her formative years in a farmhouse without electricity and enjoyed the freedom of the natural world. During her adult life, she moved through several jobs before finding her calling in book publishing and then magazines. One day she and her partner Ian Connellan were on a holiday on Hobart, enjoying the chance to get close to wildlife, when they ran into some friends- of-friends, who asked them to dinner. The next day, recalls MacCallum, “They said, ‘We think you should buy our house.’” With no intention of uprooting their lives she and Connellan thought this was “entirely ridiculous", yet they got really excited talking about the possibilities such a move might present. “At last,” we said, “Let's give it a go.”They resigned from their jobs and moved to Hobart. Both of them are brave travelers who had spent time with scientists working in various remote spots around the world. Theywondered if they could make a living by helping others to experience those unique places for themselves. Then came the new company Curious Traveler. “It works brilliantl y. Scientists get helpers and funding. Guests get to see what scientists do and how the world is changing because of it. They leave, excited and inspired,” MacCallum says.In two-and-a-half years, the pair still have to replenish their incomes with some writing and editing, but the business is growing and within five years they hope to be helping fund half a dozen research projects. It is a big task. “Some days we think it would be great to turn it off,” MacCallum says, “but when we see the wonder on the fa ce of a person who is experiencing somewhere like the Galapagos for the first time, we know we are living a wonderful life.”5．What caused MacCallum and Connellan to give up their jobs?A．A casual offer from some friends-of-friends. B．Their childhood experiences with nature. C．Their boredom with their then jobs. D．The desire to protect the wildlife. 6．What does MacCallum and Connellan's company do?A．It promotes tourism in remote places.B．It gets courageous travelers to explore the world.C．It organizes trips to places of scientific research.D．It helps scientists find proper spots for research.7．What mainly inspires MacCallum and Connellan to keep going?A．Their dream for a booming business. B．The financial gain from their work. C．The prospect of research programs. D．The satisfaction of their customers. 8．The underlined word “replenish" in Paragraph 4 means _________.A．consume B．supply C．reduce D．controlC（2021·广东华南师大附中高三月考）Cigarette ends are everywhere--littering our streets and beaches--and for decades they've been thought of as “unrecyclable”. But a New Jersey-based company, called Terracycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and posters, between 2000 and 2014.global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a wholelot of those cigarette ends ended up as trash: Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. “It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of water,” Temacycle’s founder, Tom Swak, said. “Animals can also mistake cigarette ends littered for food.”So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? Terracycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish, and use it onnon-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these. Terracycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.They’re now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can’t be recycled, such as chocolate pack aging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfills, and then get companies to provide money for the process. And now, it works well.“We haven't found anything that we can’t recycle,” communications director of Terracycle, Albe Zakes, said. “But with the amount and varieties of packaging and litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.”9．What does Terracycle intend to do?A．Search for recyclable materials for use.B．Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.C．Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.D．Recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable.10．What does the underlined word “trash” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Rubbish. B．Poison. C．Disaster. D．Ruin. 11．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．The effective use of cigarette ends.B．The process of recycling cigarette ends.C．The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends.D．The reason for breaking down cigarette ends.12．What do A lbe’s words in the last paragraph imply?A．There is more and more waste to be recycled.B．It is difficult for Terracycle to recycle everything.C．Terracycle is trying to meet the challenge of new waste.D．Terracycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste.D（2021·广东实验中学高三月考）Optional Tours in LangkawiLine One(Mangrove tours and eagle feeding)Catch exciting movement and magnificent views of how eagles try to get their food skillfully at kilim river mangrove jungle safari visit limestone bats cave and have lunch on floating restaurant.Price: adult rate RM 160.00/ person child rate (age 3—12yrs) RM 120.00/ person infant (below 3yrs) freeTime: 9:00 am—14:00 pmLine Two(Snorkeling and baby shark feeding)Pulau Payar marine park with spectacular corals and colorful tropical marine life is one of the most beautiful and exotic marine parks in Malaysia.Price: adult rate RM 220.00/ person child rate (age 3—12yrs) RM 150.00/ person infant (below 3yrs) freeTime 8:00 am—17:00 pmLine Three(Day cruise around Langkawi archipelago)Experience swimming among fishes and view spectacular corals and exotic marine life.Price: adult rate RM 450.00/ person child rate (age 3—12yrs) RM 350.00/ person infant (below 3yrs) freeTime 9:00 am—17:00 pmLine Four(Amazing sunset cocktail and dinner cruise)Experience the amazing sunset scenery around the Andaman sea while having cocktail and dinner.Price: adult rate RM 350.00/ person child rate (age 3—12yrs) RM 250.00/ person infant (below 3yrs) freeTime 16:00 pm—21 :00 pm13．What is special about Line One?A．It provides food.

Lancom claims that it is unique in its ___________.（）A. personalised coursesB. multiple languagesC. pricing policyD. service teamBBaggy has become the first dog in the UK—and potentially the world—to join the fight against air pollution by recording pollutant levels near the ground.Baggy wears a pollution monitor on her collar so she can take data measurements close to the ground. Her monitor has shown that air pollution levels are higher closer to ground level, which has helped highlight concerns that babies and young kids may be at higher risk of developing lung problems.Conventional air pollution monitors are normally fixed on lampposts at about nine feet in the air. However, since Baggy stands at about the same height as a child in a pushchair（婴儿车）, she frequently records pollution levels which are much higher than the data gathered by the Environment A gency.The doggy data research was the idea of Baggy's 13-vea-old owner Tom Hunt and his dad Matt. The English youngster noticed that pollution levels are around two-thirds higher close to the ground than they are in the air at the height where they are recorded by the agency. Tom has since reported the shocking findings to the government in an attempt to emphasise that babies are at higher risk of developing asthma（哮喘）.Matt Hunt said he was "very proud" of his son because “when the boy gets an idea, he keeps his head down and gets on with it, and he really does want to do some good and stop young kids from getting asthma."“Tom built up a passion for environmental protection at a very early age," Matt added. “He became veryinterested in gadgets（小装置）. A bout one year ago, he got this new piece of tech which is like a test tube. One Sunday afternoon, we went out to do some monitoring, and he said, why don't we put it on Baggy's collar and let her monitor the pollution？'So we did it."Tom said, "Most of the time, Baggy is just like any other dog. But for the rest of the time she is a super dog, and we are all really proud of her."24. With a monitor on her collar, Baggy can ____________.（）A. take pollutant readingsB. record pollutant levelsC. process collected dataD. reduce air pollution25. What can we learn from the Baggy data? （）A. High places are free of air pollution.B. Higher pushchairs are more risky for kids.C. Conventional monitors are more reliable.D. Air is more polluted closer to the ground.26. What is Tom's purpose of doing the research? （）A. To wan of a health risk.B. To find out pollution sources.C. To test his new monitor.D. To prove Baggy's abilities.27. According to the passage, which word can best describe Tom Hunt?（）A. Modest.B. Generous.C. Creative.D. Outgoing.CIn May 1987 the Golden Gate Bridge had a 50th birthday party. The bridge was closed to motor traffic so people could enjoy a walk across it. Organizers expected perhaps 50,000 people to show up. Instead, as many as 800, 000 crowded the roads to the bridge. By the time 250,000 were on the bridge, engineers noticed something terrible：the roadway was flattening under what turned out to be the heaviest load it had ever been asked to carry. Worse, it was beginning to sway（晃动）. The authorities closed access to the bridge and tens of thousands of people made their way back to land. A disaster was avoided.The story is one of scores in To Forgive Design：Understanding Failure, a book that is at once a love letter to engineering and a paean（赞歌）to its breakdowns. Its author, Dr. Henry Petroski, has long been writing about disasters. In this book, he includes the loss of the space shuttles（航天飞机）Challenger and Columbia, and the sinking of the Titanic.Though he acknowledges that engineering works can fail because the person who thought them up or engineered them simply got things wrong, in this book Dr. Petroski widens his view to consider the larger contextin which such failures occur. Sometimes devices fail because a good design is constructed with low quality materials incompetently applied. Or perhaps a design works so well it is adopted elsewhere again and again, with seemingly harmless improvements, until, suddenly, it does not work at all anymore.Readers will encounter not only stories they have heard before, but some new stories and a moving discussion of the responsibility of the engineer to the public and the ways young engineers can be helped to grasp them."Success is success but that is all that it is," Dr. Petroski writes. It is failure that brings improvement.28. What happened to the Golden Gate Bridge on its 50th birthday? （）A. It carried more weight than it could.B. It swayed violently in a strong windC. Its roadway was damaged by vehiclesD. Its access was blocked by many people.29. Which of the following is Dr. Petroski's idea according to paragraph 3? （）A. No design is well received everywhereB. Construction is more important than design.C. Not all disasters are caused by engineering designD. Improvements on engineering works are necessary.30. What does the last paragraph suggest? （）A. Failure can lead to progress.B. Success results in overconfidenceC. Failure should be avoided.D. Success comes from joint efforts.31. What is the text? （）A. A news reportB. A short story.C. A book reviewD. A research article.DRainforests are home to a rich variety of medicinal plants, food, birds and animals. Can you believe that a single bush（灌木丛）in the Amazon may have more species of ants than the whole of Britain! About 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hectare of rainforest.Rainforests are the lungs of the planet-storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and producing a significant amount of the world's oxygen. Rainforests have their own perfect system for ensuring their own survival; the tall trees make a canopy（树冠层）of branches and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forestanimals from heavy rain, intense dry heat from the sun and strong winds.Amazingly, the trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches, although close together, never actually touch those of another tree. Scientists think this is the plants' way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects like caterpillars. To survive in the forest, animals must climb, jump or fly across the gaps. The ground floor of the forest is not all tangled leaves and bushes, like in films, but is actually fairly clear. It is where dead leaves turn into food for the trees and other forest life.They are not called rainforests for nothing! Rainforests can generate 75%of their own rain. At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal-and in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches of rain annually. This is real rain-your umbrella may protect you in a shower, but it won't keep you dry if there is a full rainstorm. In just two hours, streams can rise ten to twenty feet. The humidity（湿气）of large rainforests contributes to the formation of rainclouds that may travel to other countries in need of rain.32. What can we learn about rainforests from the first paragraph? （）A. They produce oxygen.B. They cover a vast area.C. They are well managed.D. They are rich in wildlife.33. Which of the following contributes most to the survival of rainforests? （）A. Heavy rainsB. Big trees.C. Small plants.D. Forest animals.34. Why do the leaves and branches of different trees avoid touching each other? （）A. For more sunlight.B. For more growing space.C. For self-protection.D. For the detection of insects.35. What can be a suitable title for the text? （）A. Life-Giving RainforestsB. The Law of the JungleC. Animals in the AmazonD. Weather in Rainforests第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

2021年浙江省高考英语模拟试卷有答案
2021年浙江省高考英语模拟试卷（3月份）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共3小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
1. English learners should not think that mistakes are bad. Alex Poole, a professor of English at Western Kentucky University, advises that language learners should instead see errors as signs of progress. One common problem is that English learners think too much about errors instead of communication. "The goal is to be able to communicate in practical terms. If you have an error, the only time you should worry about it is when it leads to misunderstanding, " Poole said.Poole said when speaking with a native English speaker, you can look for signs of confusion to detect errors. For example, when a person gives an unusual response to something you said, you can then ask them directly what the problem is. It also works if you ask a native speaker about the kinds of things that you say that could cause communication problems if you know him well.When it comes to writing, Poole recommends thinking about errors in a different way. He suggests keeping a list of common errors. When English learners write something, instead of grammars, they should think about the big picture of what they are writing about. Then he advises thinking about how to put those ideas in order. After finishing it, you can go back and use your list to look for errors."My philosophy as a language learner has always been…I'm going to monitor my errors, but I'm never going to be perfect, so that shouldn't bother me. But I should look for things which cause communication problems, and I just have to live with that."You can read more about errors in Poole's new book Learning a Foreign Language﹣Understanding the Fundamentals of Linguistics. In the book, he also writes about study plans, progress and other issues in language learning.（1）English learners should worry about errors when________.A. they misuse practical termsB. they don't know native speakersC. mistakes become signs of slow progressD. errors cause communication breakdown．（2）What should English learners consider first in writing according to Poole？________A. Grammars.B. Main ideas.C. Details.D. Word choice.．（3）What's the author's purpose in writing the text？________A. To introduce a book.B. To explain basic rules.C. To offer practical advice.D. To recommend a professor.．2. Every summer, three billion birds migrate （迁徙）from southern Africa to Europe. In winter, they return to Africa's warmer shores. Both large and small birds travel thousands of kilometers, often stopping at locations along the way to rest. The migration is long and difficult, and some of the animals die during each trip. However, it is not this twice﹣a﹣year journey that poses the greatest risk to these animals. The main threat to the birds' survival comes from people. All over Mediterranean, millions of birds are killed for food, profit, and sport every year. Consequently, bird populations are dropping all over the region.Countries over the Mediterranean are aware of this, and are taking action. In many European countries, hunting migratory birds is strictly banned. Across the Mediterranean, Nature Conservation Egypt is working to increase protection of its country's wildlife, including migratory birds. As part of a current project, the group is trying to promote activities such as eco﹣tourism along the coasts. The hope is that, as more tourists come to visit protected natural areas, there will be an ________ for local people to care for the birds and their habitats.Wildlife organizations around the Mediterranean are helping to bring about change. "Hunting bans are working, " says Martin Jacoby, a bird expert. But there is still more to do. Environmentalists hope to stop hunting and restore bird habitats all over the Mediterranean. If this can be done, the birds' number will increase. "There is a long way to go, " Jacoby says, "but just like after a long journey in the desert, there will be an oasis（绿洲）."（1）What's the biggest danger to migrating birds？________A. Long distance.B. Human hunters.C. Severe weather.D. Lack of food.．（2）What does the underlined word "incentive" mean in Paragraph 2？________A. Opportunity.B. Bargain.C. Drive.D. Condition.．（3）What's Jacoby's attitude towards the efforts made by wildlife organizations？________A. Approving.B. Reserved.C. Ambiguous.D. Critical.．（4）How is the text mainly developed？________A. By giving examples.B. By presenting problem and solution.C. By making comparison.D. By analyzing cause and effect.．3. Gift givers often make serious mistakes in gift selection during the holidayseason, according to a research article in Current Directions in Psychological Science.The research, led by Jeff Galak, a professor from Carnegie Mellon University Tepper School of Business, suggests that gift givers tend to focus on the moment of exchange when selecting a gift, while gift receivers are more focused on the long﹣term value of the gift."What we found was that the giver wants to 'wow（使喝彩）' the receiver and give a gift that can be enjoyed immediately, in the moment, while the receiver is more interested in a gift that provides value over time, " explained Galak. "Put another way, there may be times when the vacuum cleaner（吸尘器）, a gift that is unlikely to wow most receivers when they open it on Christmas day, really ought to be at the top of the shopping list as it will be well used and liked for a long time. "The researchers found that this different focus on the gifts showed up in a number of different ways. For instance, some gift giving mistakes included giving unrequested gifts in an effort to surprise the receiver, when they are likely hoping for a gift from a planned list.The researchers make recommendations for those hoping to choose better gifts, advising them to better put their feet in gift receivers' shoes when thinking about gifts that would be both appreciated and useful."We exchange gifts with the people we care about, in part, in an effort to make them happy and strengthen our relationships with them, " Galak added. "By considering how valuable gifts might be over time for receivers, rather than how much of a smile it might put on receivers' faces when they are opened, we can meet these goals and provide useful, well ﹣received gifts. "（1）What do the gift givers usually focus on when choosing gifts？________A. Receivers' long﹣term needs.B. Receivers' inner thoughts.C. Receivers' immediate reactions.D. Receivers' lifetime hobbies.．（2）Why does the author mention the vacuum cleaner in Paragraph 3？________A. To give advice on how to choose a gift.B. To show the influence of the wrong gifts.C. To stress the popularity of the vacuum cleaner.D. To show the importance of a gift's long﹣term value.．（3）What can be a suitable title for the text？________A. What a Good Gift Reveals about Personality？B. A Good Gift Well Worth "Wows" and SmilesC. How to Evaluate Value When Choosing a Gift？D. Want to Give a Good Gift？ Consider Practical Value．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I was finishing up the first year of an MFA program in poetry. I was tired and puzzled. "Was I good enough to be in the program?" When a professor asked about our summer plans, I panicked. I didn't want to appear idle(闲散的). "Gardening," I responded immediately. Actually I knew nothing about plants! My professor nodded, saying, "What a good idea, Mari! Emily Dickinson loved gardening." Emily Dickinson had lived in the countryside, studying plants as a child. I was in my late twenties, living in the city without gardening experience.A few days later, I bought a jalapeño seedling(青辣椒秧苗). At least I could say I'd tried gardening. I watered and changed the dirt for my little plant. I even talked to it. And over the summer, it grew bigger and bigger. I was proud. Maybe I didn't have a black thumb after all.I started the second year of my MFA, and then it was almost December and my jalapeño was suffering. It was brown in some places; many of its leaves had fallen off. Would my little guy make it? I prayed, "Please be okay." As if its survival were closely linked to mine.I worked hard in school. Spring came. My jalapeño plant came back to life. It grew bigger, with new leaves. And then it flowered. I handed in my graduate paper--a book of poems--in May. "Your poems are strong," my professor said.A huge weight lifted. I'd done it! At that time, I found the flowers on my jalapeño plant were gone. I watchedcloser. Where a flower had been, a tiny green fruit pushed through. I smiled. I had succeeded in my MFA program, and my jalapeño plant had grown right beside me, and I successfully did things I hadn't thought possible.4．Why did the author begin gardening?A．Just by accident.B．For the love for gardening.C．To express fancy for Emily Dickinson.D．Because of the reminding of a professor.5．When did the author begin her first gardening?A．In her childhood.B．In one of her summer breaks.C．In her teens.D．In her first year of MFA program.6．What does the underlined phrase "a black thumb" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．A talent to grow plants.B．A dirty finger to touch plants.C．A good fortune to do everything.D．An inability to do gardening.7．Which proverb can best describe the story above?A．Nothing is impossible to a willing mind.B．Easier said than done.C．It's never too old to learn.D．Do not teach fish to swim.CCreated in the 1920s by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, the architect who designed Waterloo Bridge, red public telephone boxes, which can be seen all over the UK, are regarded as one of the most typical symbols of this country.However, public phones have had their day despite their lovely housings. While coin-operated and card-operated telephones are on the edge of extinction, mobile phones are playing a significant role in people's lives. Though they are more portable, flexible and extensively used, mobile phones have their weakness: battery life. Instead of trashing the phone booths, a project was then promoted to recycle and reuse them. To be consistent with the environment-friendly preference, people are allowed to rent and repurpose the red phone boxes. In this way, they are making an unusual come back. When you take a walk down Tottenham Court Road in London and find low-battery condition, there happens to be a green option for you. The abandoned the red phone boxes are beingused as free charging stations powered by solar energy.Inside the booths, which are newly painted green, there are various adaptors that can be connected to different brands and models of mobile phones. Just walk in, plug your phone in, and charge it up whenever it needs to be supplied with power. Most people would stay inside the boxes while they charge. Fully aware of this when launching the project, Solarbox can now reach a large quantity of audience by displaying ads on solid equipment. Its advertisers include well-known companies like Uber. Yet 30% of advertising space is reserved for local community projects.Apart from converting phone booths into solar-powered charging stations, other forms of transformation can be found in and outside the UK. For example, there is medical equipment or minilibraries adapted from phone booths, while in America, thousands of phone booths have been transformed into wi-fi hot spots.8．What do you know about the public phones boxes?A．The public phones were abandoned.B．The public phones have been replaced by mobile phones.C．The public phones played a significant role in people's lives.D．The public phones are regarded as typical symbols of this country.9．What does the underlined word "repurpose" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Adapt.B．Produce.C．Unite. D．Build.10．What is an important factor that makes Solarbox launch the project?A．New function.B．Advertising profit.C．People's affection D．Companies support11．What is the text mainly about?A．The future of the public phone.B．The revival of the phone boxes.C．The rise and fall of the red boxes.D．The ups and downs of the payphone.DOver all, Girls perform better than boys in school. It starts as early as kindergarten. By the time students reach college, women graduate at a higher rate than men. But there’s an exception. Boys match the grades of girls in elementary school, a new study has found. For them, the gender achievement gap doesn’t appear until adolescence — at which point they start doing worse as a group than girls.More and more studies have shown that boys’ under-performance is not because of any internal reasons. Instead, it seems, it’s largely because of something external: their school environments and peer influences. Thenew study offers a clue about how much school environments affect boys’ academic achievement. Ms. Hsin found that the gender gap for boys in high school was smaller in schools that were less sports-focused, and where boys did better over all. Other studies have also stressed the importance of the school and social environments, especially for boys. For boys, these influences change in adolescence, Ms. Hsin found, a time when children become more aware of their gender identity and are more influenced by peers.One working paper found that the best-performing students had a combination of behaviors typically considered male and female. It used nationally representative survey data about gender standard for about 12,000 high school students. The most traditionally girls and the most boys had the lowest grades.Researchers have other suggestions. Show them role models who got where they are by doing well in school. Emphasize the importance of hard work and daily practice, and encourage both boys and girls to embrace a full range of fields, and not to feel limited by gender roles. Place high expectations on children, and give them opportunities to meet them.12．When do the boys perform as well as the girl?A．In college. B．In kindergarten.C．In elementary school. D．In senior high school.13．What makes the boys perform worse than the girl?A．Their behaviors.B．Their characteristics.C．Their family influences.D．Their school environments.14．What did Ms. Hsin find in his study?A．The boys did better over girls.B．The children are more influenced by peers.C．Social environments influenced boys more.D．The gender gap for girls in high school was smaller in schools.15．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．Children will benefit from role models.B．Children can perform well by working hard.C．Children should be limited by gender roles.D．Children traditionally have the lowest grades in school.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Note that there is one word more than you need.A Special D ay: Microsoft’s 40th AnniversaryEarly on, Paul Allen and I set the goal of a computer on every desk and in every home. It was a brave idea and a lot of people thought we were out of our minds to __41__ it was possible. It is amazing to think about how far computing has come since then, and we can all be proud of the __42__ role Microsoft played in that revolution.Today I am thinking much more about Microsoft’s future than its past, though. I believe computing will __43__ faster in the next 10 years than it ever has before. We already live in a multi-platform world, and computing will become even more spreading. We are nearing the point where computers and robots will be able to see, move, and interact naturally, unlocking many new __44__ and enabling people to do even more.Under Satya’s leadership, Micr osoft is better positioned than ever to lead these advances. We have the resources to drive and solve tough problems. We are __45__in every aspect of modern computing and have the deepest commitment to research in the industry. In my role as technical advisor to Satya, I get to join product reviews and am __46__ by the vision and talent I see. The result is evident in products like Cortana, Skype Translator, and Holo Lens -- and those are just a few of the __47__ that are on the way.In the coming years, Microsoft has the opportunity to reach even more people and organizations around the world. Technology is still out of reach for many people, because it is complex or expensive, or they __48__ do not have access. So I hope you will think about what you can do to make the power of technology accessible to everyone, to connect people to each other, and make personal computing __49__ everywhere even as the very intention of what a PC delivers makes its way into all devices.We have accomplished a lot together during our first 40 years and enable countless businesses and people to realize their full __50__. But what matters most now is what we do next. Thank you for he lping make Microsoft a fantastic company now and for decades to come.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Better Solar Energy Systems: More Heat, More LightSolar photovoltaic thermal energy systems (太阳能光伏热能系统), or PVTs, produce both heat and electricity, but until now they haven’t been very good at the heat-producing part __51__ a stand-alone (单机的) solar thermal collector. That’s because they operate at low temperatures to cool crystalline silicon solar cell s (晶体硅太阳能电池), which lets the silicon produce more electricity but isn’t a very __52__ way to gather heat.That’s a problem of economics. A solar-electric system is run at a comparatively lower __53__, while good solar hot-water systems can harvest much more energy. And it’s also a space problem: photovoltaic (光伏的) cells can __54__ all the space on the roof, leaving little room for thermal applications.In a pair of studies, Joshua Pearce, an associate professor of materials science and engineering, has designed a __55__ in the form of a better PVT made with a different kind of silicon. His research partners are Kunal Girotra from Thin Silicon in California and Michael Pathakand Stephen Harrison from Queen’s University, C anada.Most solar panels (电池板) are made with crystalline silicon, but you can also make solar cells out of amorphous silicon (非晶体硅), __56__ known as thin-film silicon. They don’t create as much electricity, but they are lighter, flexible, and cheaper. Because they __57__ much less silicon, they are more environmental friendly and have a greener footprint. __58__, thin-film silicon solar cells can be easily damaged and are breakable.“That means that, when you expose them to light, their efficiency __59__ ---- pretty much the worst possible effect for a solar cell,〞 Pearce explains, which is one of the reasons thin-film solar panels make up only a small __60__ of the market.However, Pearce and his team eventually found a way to improve the __61__ of solar panels by uniting thin-film silicon into a whole in a new type of PVT after many experiments. You don’t have to cool down thin-film silicon to make it work and improve its working efficiency. __62__, Pearce’s group discovered that by heating it to solar-thermal operating __63__, near the boiling point of water, they could make thicker cells that largely overcamethe __64__ effect. When they applied the thin-film silicon directly to a solar thermal energy collector, they also found that by baking the solar cell once a day, they __65__ the solar cell’s electrical efficiency by over 10 percent.51.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea. People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt.They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few British people drink tea without milk.At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess(公爵夫人)found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o’clock stopped hergetting “a sinking feeling〞 as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.66. Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into BritainA. British people were the first people in Europe who drank tea.B. It was not until the 17th century that British people had tea.C. British people got expensive tea from India.D. Tea reached Britain from Holland.67. What does this passage most probably talk aboutA. It talks about how British people got the habit of drinking teaB. It talks about how tea became a popular drink in BritainC. It talks about the history of tea drinking in BritainD. It talks about how tea-time was born68. People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because ______.A. tea with milk stopped people getting a sinking feelingB. people followed the way a French lady drank teaC. tea with milk was then a fashionable curiosityD. tea with milk tasted much more pleasant69. We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinkingtea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of ______.A. the upper social classB. the ancient ChineseC. a famous French ladyD. people in Holland(B)HOLIDAYS1.

The Country Garden Hotel(C)It’s true that high-school coding classes aren’t essential for learning computer science in college. Students without experience can catch up after a few introductory courses, said Tom Cortina, the assistant dean at Carnegie Mellon’s School of Computer Science.However, Cortina said, early exposure is beneficial. When younger kids learn computer science, they learn that it’s not just a confusing, endless st ring of letters and numbers —but a tool to build apps, or create artwork, or test hypotheses (假设). It’s not as hard for them to transform their thought processes as it is for older students. Breaking down problems into bite-sized parts andusing code to solve them becomes normal. Giving more children this training could increase the number of people interested in the field and help fill the jobs gap, Cortina said.Students also benefit from learning something about coding before they get to college, where introductory computer-science classes are packed to the edge, which can drive the less-experienced or less-determined students away.The Flatiron School, where people pay to learn programming, started as one of the many coding camps has become popular for adults looking for a career change. The high-schoolers get the same curriculum, but “we try to adjust lessons to things they’re interested in,〞 said Victoria Friedman, an instructor. For instance, one of the apps the students are developing suggests movies based on your mood.The students in the Flatiron class probably won’t drop out of high school and build the next Facebook.Programming languages have a quick turnover, so the “Ruby on Rails〞 language they learned may not even be relevant by the time they enter the job market. But theskills they learn —how to think logically through a problem and organize the results — apply to any coding language, said Deborah Seehorn, an education consultant for the state of North Carolina.Indeed, the Flatiron students might not go into IT at all. But creating a future army of coders is not the only purpose of the classes. These kids are going to be surrounded by computers —in their pockets, in their offices, in their homes —for the rest of their lives. The younger they learn how computers think, how to coax the machine into producing what they want — the earlier they learn that they have the power to do that — the better.74. Cortina holds that early exposure to computer science makes it easier to ______.A. remodel the way of thinkingB. perfect artwork productionC. formulate logical hypothesesD. complete future job training75. Deborah Seehorn believes that the skills learned at Flatiron will ______.A. have to be upgraded when new technologies comeB. need improving when students look for jobsC. help students learn other computer languagesD. enable students to make big quick money76. According to the last paragraph, Flatiron students are expected to ______.A. stay longer in the information technology industryB. become better prepared for the digitalized worldC. bring forth innovative computer technologiesD. compete with a future army of programmers77. The word “coax〞 in the last paragraph is closest inmeaning to ______.A. misguideB. challengeC. frightenD. persuadeI.
