2021学年-有答案-安徽省滁州市定远县重点中学高一10月月考英语试题
安徽省滁州市定远县重点中学2020-2021学年高一10月月考英语试题一、阅读选择1. I grew up in a home with a mother who believes that vaccines （疫苗） cause brain damage, and do not contribute to the health and safety of a society． The only shot I received was for tetanus （破伤风） when I was two months old． After that, nothing．At the beginning of each school year, I was very nervous． Delayed term paper? Mischievous （捣蛋的）behavior? Late for school? None of them． I'd be pulled out of class and brought to the headmaster's office． The school doctor would tell me I hadn't received any of the necessary shots to attend school． But the same thing occurred each time: my mom would free me from the shots and nothing would happen．After doing a lot of research, I found although people who don't vaccinate their children make up only a relatively small group, they can cause major consequences． People who, for health or age reasons, cannot receive vaccines are at a higher risk of catching a preventable disease．Eventually, I turned 18． In Ohio, where I live, I had to wait until I became a legal adult to make the decision to receive vaccine shots． A huge factor in taking the step to ensure my health was the message board website Reddit． Last November, I asked Reddit users for advice about what vaccines to ask for and how to go about getting them from a doctor． After my post received more than 1, 000 comments, I made an appointment with my family physician． Despite how strongly my mother felt, I went through with it anyway．I did something every person should do． It wasn't special in any way． Vaccines protect the health and safety of not only yourself but also other people． Vaccination is important because someone could die if you don't get vaccinated． This was the biggest reason I got vaccines despite the opposition．（1）Why was the author called to the headmaster's office at the beginning of each school year？________A. He was late for school．B. He didn't behave himself at school．C. He couldn't hand in his term paper on time．D. He was hardly ever vaccinated．．（2）How might the author's mother have felt about his appointment with the family physician？________A. Annoyed．B. Grateful．C. Thrilled．D. Guilty．．（3）What does the author mainly want to tell us through his story？________A. Listening to your mother pays off．B. Doing the right thing matters．C. Keeping fit is the best policy．D. Asking for advice helps．2. People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. I’ll share some of my experience. I once took a school year English course in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English on my own.One thing I can tell you is that, once you start learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I am in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it directly. It is amazing how much this helps.For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I did not want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while traveling in Ameri ca, I’d try to hang out with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me, then so be it. After that, my English started improving much more quickly.Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement.（1）How long did the author learn English in Wuhan University?A.A week.B.A Month.C.A term.D.A year.（2）What is the good way to improve your English according to the author?A.Reading English books.B.Thinking in English.C.Watching English films.D.Learning English grammar.（3）Where did the author improve his English quickly?A.In America.B.In China.C.In the university.D.In the middle school.（4）What is the best title for the text?A.My University LifeB.American EnglishC.My English Learning ExperienceD.The Importance of Learning English3.What will the future school look like is difficult to make clear, but most experts agree that the school will be electronic in the future."Present-day schools will no longer exist in the next century," says a report in The Age. "At that time, future schools will become community-style centers, which run seven days a week, 24 hours a day." At the same time, computers will surely become a central part of the school in the future.According to The Age, the distant learning will be popular and students will listen to teachers on computers. Going into classrooms on their computers, students will study at any time, which is very easy for them. However, it is necessary for students to go to the actual school in order to develop some social skills.The Seashore Primary School is an imaginary school in the future created by the Education Department of Australia. At this school, all the teachers and students have laptop computers. Teachers check messages and call students back on a special telephone system and students use telephones to search for information or speak to their experts who teach their lessons. Besides, all the lessons are related to all sorts of subjects and all the students have their own learning plans created by teachers.As one headmaster says, a laptop computer is students' library, data storage（数据存储）as well as the bridge to a wider world. Technology has changed the emphasis of future learning. Thus, we'll pay more attention to the learning of kids rather than the teaching.（1）According to the report in The Age, students in future schools will ________.A.have no teachersB.study at a set timeC.mainly study onlineD.never go to actual school（2）The example of the Seashore Primary School is given to show ________.A.telephones are important in AustraliaB.students enjoy getting in touch with teachersC.every student needs a learning planD.how future schools will work（3）What does the underlined word "emphasis" in the last paragraph mean?A.lessonB.focusC.attitudeD.score（4）Which of the following is the best title of the text?A.The Seashore Primary SchoolB.Great Changes in TechnologyC.The Schools in the FutureD.Actual Schools to Be Replaced4. Traveling by subway can sometimes be quite an adventure, especially during rush hour． There are the times when you have to avoid cups of coffee that could spill （溅） on you． The smells of some passengers' food are very strong, too． According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations, which went into effect on May15th, passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway． Violators （违反者） who do not stop after being asked to will be asked to get off． The violation will also be recorded in the violators' credit record．Some support the rule． The reason is that the smell of food and drink can annoy other passengers． "The smellof food fills the carriage, causing people discomfort, especially in the hot summer, Besides, eating on the subway produces rubbish． And on subway trains, people often spill their drinks, " said Zheng Yiou, 17, a student from Hefei．However, others question this rule． "Some citizens live so far from their work places that they have limited timeto have breakfast before they go to work． Eating while they travel saves them time and decreases the chance that they will be late for work, " He Songlin, a 17﹣year﹣old student from Chengdu said, "And some people, like those with low﹣ blood sugar levels, get sick if they can't eat when they must．"Other Chinese cities like Nanjing and Chengdu have similar regulations． Some foreign cities also ban eating and drinking on the subway． For example, eating and drinking have long been banned on the subway in Washington DC． Singapore fines people who eat or drink on the subway up to 500 Singapore dollars, which is RMB 2, 417 yuan． Chen Yanyan, a professor from Beijing University of Technology, believed we should consider the need of some people to eat or drink on the subway． "Commuters （上班族） and travelers are sometimes too busy toeat． Maybe we could learn from Tokyo, where there are many subway stations equipped with services, allowing passengers to eat and drink, " she said．（1）In which city was subway passenger regulations carried out on May 15th？________A. Chengdu．B. Nanjing．C.D. Beijing．．（2）What's the punishment for the passengers who break the rules in Singapore？________A. Eating on the subway．B. Drinking on the subway．C. Being fined up to 2417 yuan．D. Being asked to get off the train．．（3）What is Chen Yanyan's atitude to eating or drinking on the subway？________A. Worried．B. Sympathetic．C. Doubtful．D. Uninterested．（4）What would be the best title for the text？________A. Food and Drink Banned on Subway．B. The Adventure of Subway TravelingC. Ways to Eat and Drink on Subway．D. The Services on Subway Stations．二、七选五We have all heard of superfoods whether it is from articles or in the news． But what are they？（1）_______Superfoods are things you eat that do more than satisfy your hunger because they help your body work better． Think of your body as a car． The better the gas you put in your car， the better it will run．（2）_______ As the saying goes， "You are what you eat．" This is very true because if you are eating foods that are full of fat，your body will most likely show it． On the other hand， if you are eating energy﹣filled foods， your body will show that as well．（3）_______They are filled with fiber（纤维），proteins， and important nutrients that are easily used by the body． To become a superfood officially， a food has to meet three requirements． First， it must be available（可获得的）to everyone． Second， it must contain nutrients that help you live longer．（4）_______Eating superfoods can change your life in many ways． Not surprisingly， people who start eating them lose weight quickly． One reason for this is that many superfoods are naturally low in calories（卡路里）．（5）_______With most diets， people concentrate on what shouldn't be eaten． With superfoods， they focus on all the great things they can eat． There are other benefits to adding them to your diet as well． Eating superfoods over time helps keep you looking young， fights heart disease and cures some cancers．A． Some of the top superfoods are berries， nuts， and whole grains．B． Our bodies are just the same．C． Another reason is that sticking to eating them is very easy．D． This is a good question with a simple answer．E． Getting a wide variety of foods， superfood included， is the better solution．F． Lastly， its health benefits must be proven by scientific studies．G． If you want to start adding superfoods to your diet， do it at your own pace．三、完形填空A Dog’s Day in CourtWe used to live about a quarter mile from a train crossing.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑． AMore than four decades ago British scientist Robert Edwards first witnessed the miracle of human life growing inside a test tube at his Cambridge lab. Since that ground-breaking moment, more than four million babies have been born through IVF and in 2021 his great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine.The prize for Dr. Edwards, who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2021, includes a £900,000 check. The Nobel Assembly described IVF as a “milestone in modern medicine〞.With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, the Manchester-born physiologist developed IVF - leading to the birth of the world’s firsttest tube baby. Dr. Steptoe died 10 years later but their work has transformed fertility treatment and given hope to millions of couples.It was a scientific breakthrough that transformed the lives of millions of couples. They said: “His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility, a disease which makes human unable to have a baby. This condition has been afflicting a large percentage of mankind including more than 10% of all couples worldwide.〞Louise Brown, the world’s first test tube baby, made international headlines when she was born in Oldham, Gtr Manchester, in 1978 to parents Lesley and John who had been fruitlessly trying for a baby since 1969.Ivf-in-vitro fertilization is the process whereby egg cells are fertilized outside the body before being implanted in the womb. After a cycle of IVF, the probability of a couple with infertility problems having a baby is one in five—the same as healthy couples who conceive naturally.Professor Edwards, who has five daughters and 11 grandchildren, began his research at Cambridge University in 1963, after receiving his PhD in 1955. He once said: “The most important thing in life is having a child. Nothing is more special than a child.〞 With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, Prof. Edwards founded the Bourn Hall clinic in Cambridge shire, which now treats more than 900 women a year. Each year, more than 30,000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and 11,000 babies are born as a result of the treatment.But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church who sai d it was “unethical and immoral〞.Martin Johnson, professor of reproductive sciences at the University of Cambridge, said the award was “long overdue〞. He said: “We couldn’t understand why the Nobel has come so late but he is delighted - this is the cherry on the cake for him.〞Professor Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said he was “thrilled and delighted〞.1．What is Robert Edwards’ contribution to science?A. Enabling millions of couples to live a better life.B. Seeing the wonder of the first tube baby growingC. Helping couples with infertility to have tube babies.D.

Confusing3．Why did Professor Edwards begin his research on tube baby?A. Because he thought it of great significance to have a child in life.B. Because the birthrate around the world was unexpectedly low then.C. Because a special child did make a difference to an ordinary family.D. Because his fellow scientist wanted to give hope to the unlucky couples.4．It can be inferred from Paragraph 8 and Paragraph 9 that ___________.A. Professor Edwards deserved the prize for his breakthrough.B. different opinions were voiced on Professor Edwards’ finding.C. some people envied Professor Edwards for his being awarded.D. the prize was late because the finding was first considered immoral. 5．What might be the best title for the passage?A. Life Stories of Robert EdwardsB. Preparations for Having a BabyC. Nobel Prize for IVF Expert EdwardsD. Treatment of Infertility in a LabBAn Italian couple are becoming the world’s oldest divorcees, after the 99—year—old husband found that his 96—year—old wife had an affair(婚外情) in the 1940s.The Italian man, called by lawyers in the case as Antonio C，looking through an old drawer when he made the discovery a few days before Christmas.In spite of the time that had passed since the affair, he was so upset that he immediately asked his wife of 77 years, named as Rosa C, whether it was true, and demanded a divorce.Stricken by the guilt, she reportedly admitted everything but was unable to persuade her husband to reconsider his decision, though her children also did much more work.She wrote letters to her lover during a secret affair in the 1940s, according to court papers released in Rome this week , which made people know the truth.The couple are now preparing to split, though the marriage they built has lasted over nearly eight decades- they have five children, a dozen grandchildren and one great- grand child.The discovery of the letters was the final problem for their marriage which had already run into difficulty- 10 years ago the husband brieflyleft their house in Rome and moved in with one of his sons, only to return a few weeks later.The Italian thought the fierce split resulted from the couple’s southern blood- he is originally from Olbia in Sardinia, while his wife was born in Naples. The couple met during the 1930s when Antonio served as a young officer.The case appears to set a new record, at least for the age of the oldest figures- the previous oldest couple to divorce were Bertie and Jessie Wood, both aged 98, from the UK.That pair ended their 36- year marriage in 2021 when they were both two years away from their 100th birthdays. They got married in Elstree,Hertfordshire, in 1972 having both ended previous marriages, before moving to Falmouth, Cornwall four years later.6．Which is true according to the text?A. To find his wife’ affair, Antonio C looked through an old drawer.B. Rosa C’ lover may be Bertie.C. Rosa C admitted what she did because she was sorry for her guilt.D. The Italian thought the fierce split resulted from the discovery of the letters.7．Which word can replace the underlined one in passage5?A. advertisedB. announcedC. concludedD. expressed8．Which of the following best describe Antonio C?A. a childish manB. a rude manC. a romantic manD. a stubborn〔固执(gù zhí)〕man9．The marriage of Antonio C and Rosa C .A. may come to an end because the husband sticks to his decisionB. appears to set a new recordC. may have lasted over 36 yearsD. began in the 1930s before both ending previous marriages10．This passage may come from .A. a text bookB. a newspaperC. a history bookD. an advertisementCYears ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window .I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window .It really looks terrible.〞One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing(批评(pī píng)) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I want ed to judge someone, I asked myself first ,“Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?〞 Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.11．The writer couldn’t see everything clearly through the window because_____.A. the woman’s window was dirtyB. the writer’s window was dirtyC. the woman lived nearbyD. the writer was near-sighted12．The writer was surprised that ________.A. the woman was sitting by her windowB. the woman’s window was clean.C. the woman did cleaning in the afternoonD. the woman’s window was still terrible13．“ It dawned on me〞probably means “______〞.A.I began to understand itB. it cheered me upC. I knew it grew l ightD. it began to get dark14．It’s clear that________.A. the writer had never met the woman beforeB. the writer often washed the windowC. they both worked as cleanersD. they lived in a small town15．From the passage, we can learn_________.A. one shouldn’t criticize others very oftenB. one should often make his windows cleanC. one must judge himself before he judges othersD. one must look at others through his dirty window第二节〔一共(yīgòng)5小题；每一小题2分，满分是10分〕根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

This entertainment program, whose Chinese name translates to "Sisters Who Brave Winds and Waves , invited 30 established actresses in their thirties, put them up in an apartment where they competed against each other and then selected five among them to form a new star group.While young hopefuls are commonly considered to be the protagonists of music talent show, Sisters Who Brave Winds and Waves" turns out to be an outlier. Apart from showcasing female stars musical talent, this show tries to deliver a positive message that age should not be the barrier for female entertainers to chase their dreams. The reality that most female entertainers have a short “shelf life" needs to be changed.Attracted by the unique theme of Mango TV's new show, many Chinese viewers were desperate for the show's debut. The first episode aired last week received 10 million views within the first 20 minutes. Following the initial success, Mango Excellent Media's stock rose by nearly 9% on Friday and another 7% on Monday. The company's market value has now surpassed 100 billion yuan ( $ 14 billion).The value of this show was not only recognized by the market, but also the majority of Chinese viewers. Many netizens made good comments on the new show as it encouraged them to explore their inner potential no matter how old they are. One wrote, " Of course, young stars in their late teens and early 20s are beautiful. But I feel more impressed by these celebrities over the age of 30. " She went on to say that their confidence and ambitionmake them shine, and that age is just a number.The Mango TV's new show comes as a welcome relief, which demonstrates that charm and ambition is not limited to the young age. In fact, such age equality should extend to all professions to ensure that people with all ages could be treated equally in pursuit of their career goals.24. What does the underlined word "outlier" in paragraph 2 mean?A. surpriseB. successC. failureD. exception25. H ow did the entertainment market react after Mango TV’s new show was released?A. The company's market value has now exceeded 14 billion dollars.B. Mango Excellent Media's stock rose by nearly 16% over the weekend.C. Nearly 10 million viewers watched the first episode within the first hour.D. The debut of the new show did not affect the company's market value.26. What do we know from the netizen's comment on the newly released show?A. She thinks young celebrities are not attractive to the audience.B. She holds the view that Mango TV's new show is conventional.C. She believes charm could make the celebrities shine no matter their age.D. She complains about age discrimination in the entertainment industry,.27. What can we infer about the author from the text?A. He/She aims to purse gender equality.B. He/She protests against age discrimination.C. He/She is a fan of musical shows.D. He/She dreams about being an actor/actress.CIt's been a decade since the launch of Airbnb and Uber, now considered a part of life for many people booking trips and journeys. In that time, several boat sharing apps have been working hard to regulate how people rent boats or book activities on the water.Many of them have a similar business model to Airbnb, where customers rent boats directly from owners. GetMyBoat is the market leader with over 130,000 boats. The founders had the idea when they were sailing in the Atlantic and noticed that large numbers of boats were unused.The company has grown from having a presence primarily in the lop boating cities in the US to having boats available in 9 ,300 destinations across 184 countries. Since it first started, GetMyBoat has sent over 120,000 people out boating. This year, it is projecting to send 65 ,000 people out on the water, a dramatic increase from the 53 people who booked a boat in its first year back in 2013.US competitors include Boatsetter, which has 25 ,000 boats available across the world. Parisian- basedClick&Boal has 30,000 boats globally and in the Mediterranean, Samboat is a major player with 25 ,000 boats.It's an obvious win for boat owners who are looking for ways to minimize （使最小化）the cost of owning a boat by renting it out. And modem technology means that the boat can find nearby customers without being registered to a specific boating agency as in the past.Safety issues are very important. Boatbound failed after a customer lost a leg in an accident because the company didn't require that people hire captains with the boats, something that its competitors do.The market is changing in that fewer people are seeking to buy their own boats, while the number of people who want to experience boating is growing. This new market is allowing people to search for and book water experiences that offer something new.28. What impressed the founders of GetMyBoat during their sailing in the Atlantic?A. The wide use of Airbnb.B. The popularity of water activities.C. The large quantity of unused boats.D. The large number of boats in the world.29. How does the author explain GetMyBoat's business development?A. By listing numbers.B. By making comparison.C. By following the time order.D. By referring to its founders' words.30. Why did Boatbound go downhill?A. Because the company couldn't find ways to minimize the cost of owning a boat.B. Because the competitors lay too much pressure on Boatbound.C. Because the company was in lack of modern technology.D. Because of a safely accident resulting from the company's carelessness.31. What contributes to the boat sharing trend?A. Few people can afford their own boats.B. More people want to experience boating.C. Few boat owners refuse cost-cutting offers.D. More people have free time to try new things.DFor reasons that are deeply rooted in culture and tradition, men significantly outnumber （比... 多）women in mathematics-based careers. As students progress through the mathematics courses, girls and boys show little difference in ability, effort, or interest in mathematics until adolescent years when course and career choices begin influencing school effort. Then, as social pressureincreases and career goals are formed, girls' decisions to reduce effort in the study of mathematics progressively cut them off from many professional careers in the future.Many girls drop mathematics in high school or in the transition to college. Others drop out later. Women perform virtually as well as men in college mathematics courses, but beyond the bachelor’s degree women drop out of mathematics at twice the rate of men. Women now enter college nearly as well prepared in mathematics as men, and 46 percent of mathematics baccalaureates （学士学位）go to women. Despite this record, only 35 percent of the master's degrees and 17 percent of the Ph. D degrees in the mathematical sciences are earned by women.Overall, women receive approximately one third of university degrees in science and engineering. The highest percentages of women are found in those sciences with the least mathematical prerequisite：psychology, biology, and sociology. The lowest percentages of women enter fields requiring the most mathematics, namely, physics, engineering, economics, geo- science ,and chemistry. Evidence from many sources suggest that it is differences in course patterns rather than lack of ability that matter most in limiting women's access to careers in mathematically intensive sciences.Widely reported studies concerning the high percentage of boys among mathematical prodigies （天才）---those who at age 12 perform at the level of average college students-often convey the impression that gender differences in mathematics are biologically determined. But evidence from the vast majority of students shows almost no difference in performance among male and female students who have taken equal advantage of similar opportunities to study mathematics. Inferences from very exceptional students——child prodigies—mean little about the performance of the general population.32. Males and females probably have great difference in the learning abilities of in mathematics when they.A. enter high schoolB. acquire their bachelor’s degreeC. enter collegeD. acquire their master's degree33. Of the following degrees, the highest percentage of degree earned by women isA. master’s degree in economicsB. doctor's degree in economicsC. master’s degree in biologyD. doctor's degree in biology34. We can infer from the high percentage of boys among mathematical prodigies thatA. boys and girls usually lake unequal advantage of opportunities lo study mathematicsB. boys are cleverer in mathematics than girlsC. gender differences in mathematics are biologically determinedD. boys work harder than girls35. Which one doesn't belong to the reasons why men significantly outnumber women in mathematics based careers?A. Many girls decide to reduce effort in the study of mathematics as social pressure increases.B. Course pattern is the factor that limits women's access to careers in mathematically intensive sciences.C. Women's less interest in mathematics limits their access to some careers.D. More women drop out of mathematics than men beyond the bachelor’s degree.安徽省皖江名校联盟2021届高三11月第三次联考英语试题第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中，选出最佳选项。

Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling!Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall, the guard said something along these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Childr en, this is the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morning and I hope to see you again soon.”Quite a few people (obviously previous strangers) started talking to one another about the guard’s excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel.I started thinking about this, and then I found the young guard and said “Were you the guard on the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yyyyes.”“Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.”I said.There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefits that accumulate from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine theconversation that guard would have when he got home?24.Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements?A. They usually feel sleepy.B. The messages are unattractive.C.

A Lovely Morning in SydneyCVery few animals except dolphins, chimpanzees (黑猩猩)，and elephants have ever passed the mirror test for self-recognition. Scientists believe they have found a fish able recognize itself in a mirror. The result is surprising because this ability is usually only found in animals with bigger brains. Even humans don't usually pass the mirror test until they are about a year and a half old.To test the wrasse (隆头鱼), a small fish in the sea, scientists put each wrasse in a tank with a mirror. They gave the fish a chance to get used to the mirror and watched their reactions. At first, the wrasses challenged the "other fish" by swimming up to the mirror and "fighting" them with the mouth. But soon the wrasses seemed to understand that something funny was happening. They began to swim toward the mirror upside down or in other unusual ways. It was like they were testing whether the fish in the mirror were really themselves.Once the wrasses seemed used to the mirror, the scientists gave the wrasses a mark by putting the fish to sleep and injecting something under their skin. Someof the fish got a brown mark. Other fish got a clear "mark" that didn't have a color and couldn't be seen in a mirror.After looking in the mirror, the wrasses with the brown marks would rub the area with the mark against the sand in the bottom of the tank. Then they would go back and look in the mirror again, as if checking if the mark was still there. But when wrasses with brown marks were put in tanks without mirrors, they didn't try to rub their marks away. And wrasses with clear "marks" didn't either, even when they could see themselves in the mirror.The unexpected results are making some people look hard for other ways to explain how the wrasses reacted. So even though the wrasses seem to have passed the mirror test, the scientists will need some time to reflect on exactly what that means.28.Why do the scientists feel surprised about the result?A.The fish has a big brain.B.Elephants failed to pass the mirror test.C.Chimpanzees are as clever as dolphins.D.The fish succeeded in passing the mirror test.29.What did the scientists take notice of about the wrasses at first?A.They swam in unusual ways.B.They were unaware of themselves in the mirror.C.They thought the mirror interesting.D.They wanted to challenge themselves.30.How did the fish with brown marks react in the mirror test?A.They would rub the area with the mark against sand.B.They would pay no attention to marks.C.They would rest in the bottom of the tank.D.They would swim upside down to the mirror.31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.Why Are Fish Smarter than Expected?B.Do Colors Affect the Experiment?C.How Is the Mirror Test Conducted?D.Can Fish Recognize Themselves in the Mirror?DCaptain America and Blackpanther were about to defend Earth from the criminal Thanos when Kevin Foley first noticed something was wrong. Foley, a 46-year old information-technology worker from Kyle, Texas, was heading into the theater to see Avengers: Infinity War when he realized he was having trouble breathing normally. The same symptom struck again during another movie the following night, but more severe this time. Once the cast on the second film rolled, Foley took action: he looked at his wristwatch. It was a bigger step than you might imagine, because Foley was wearing an Apple Watch equipped with medical sensors and experimental software to track basic functions of his heart. And the watch was worried. It had, according to the display, detected signs of an irregular heartbeat.Before long, Foley was in an emergency room, where doctors hooked him up to an ECG (心电图), which showed that he was in atrial fibrillation (心房颤动), an irregular heartbeat that can lead to blood clots (血栓), stroke and other potentially disastrous diseases. Foley spent the next few days in the hospital while doctors worked to return him to a normal heart rhythm eventually turning to a procedure called electrical cardioversion to shock his heart back to normal. Foley is doing fine now. But he believes that, if not for the warning on his watch, he might not have sought help in time. “I would have never known,” he says.Foley and his watch were part of an experiment run by Apple and Stanford’s medical school. But beginning from Dec. 6, anyone can get an on-the-fly heart checkup, assuming they’ve paid $399 or more for an Apple Watch. That’s when Apple will launch a software update that turns its latest model, called the Series 4, into a personal ECG, thanks to an innovative new sensor. Though less complicated than hospital ECG machines, the watch version can still provide basic information and warnings of potential risks worthy of a closer look by a medical professional.32.What was Foley doing when he realized his heart condition was abnormal for the first time?A.He was working in the theatre.B.He was detecting his watch.C.He was on the way to see a film.D.He was equipping his Apple Watch with a medical sensor.33.How can Foley’s wristwatch detect signs of an irregular heartbeat?A.By being hooked straight up to an EGG in an emergency room.B.By being equipped with an innovative new medical sensor.C.By being paid not less than $399 for the latest Apple Watch.D.By being accessible to Food and Drug Administration clearance for the heart monitor.34.According to the passage, if someone wants to get an on-the-fly heart checkup, he or she________.A.can buy a new Apple Watch Series 4B.can purchase an Apple Watch of any modelC.can equip himself/herself with an ECG machineD.can have his or her old Apple Watch updated35.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A.Entertainment.B.Sports.cation.D.Health.第二节.七选五 (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。
