II阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
When the SS Gairsoppa was sunk by a German war boat 70 years ago，it took its huge silver cargo to a watery grave. Today, US divers are working to recover what may be the biggest shipwreck treasure ever.
The Florida-based company Odyssey Marine Exploration announced that it had found the Gairsoppa, and cited official documents indicating the British ship was carrying some 219 tons of silver when it sank in 1941 in the North Atlantic f some 300 miles off the Irish coast.
Valued then at￡600,000, the silver today is worth about $ 210 million, which would make it history's largest recovery of precious metals lost at sea.
“We've accomplished the first stage of this project — the location and identification of the target shipwreck — and now we're hard at work planning for the recovery stage，” Odyssey project manager Andrew Craig said.
Under the terms of an agreement reached between Odyssey and the British government，the company will retain 80 percent of the silver it can recover from the wreck.
The 412-foot Gairsoppa had been sailing from India back to Britain in February 1941 carrying a cargo of silver, iron and tea, when a storm hit. Running low on fuel, the ship was forced to change direction and headed for Galway，Ireland，the nearest port of safety.
It never made it，sunk by a German torpedo in the contested waters of the North Atlantic. Of the 85 people on board，only one survived.
The Gairsoppa came to rest nearly 15 ,400 feet below the surface, where for decades it was lost to the world. All previous efforts to locate the shipwreck failed.
New photographs released by the Oddesy show clear details of the ship，including the hole blown open by the torpedo. The find highlights the influential role that modern technologies，such as global positioning systems and deepwater robots，have come to play in the business of finding shipwrecks.
Odyssey president Mark Gordon said, "The majority of the world's ocean floor has not yet been explored. We know more about the surface of the moon than we know about the deepest parts of the oceans. It's exciting to be working at depths like these and to be among the pioneers of this unexplored frontier. ”
26. What caused the ship to sink?
A. A dangerous storm.
B. A German attack.
C. A loss of direction.
D. An accidental explosion.
27. Where was the ship headed when it sank?
A. India.
B. Ireland.
C. The United States.
D. Britain.
28. Which of the following about the Gairsoppa is true?
A. All the passengers aboard were killed.
B. Some of its treasures have already been recovered.
C. It is under more than 15,000 meters of water.
D. It is officially owned by the British government.
29. Why has it taken so many years to find the location of the ship?
A. The required technology was not available before,
B. People had completely forgotten the ship had been sunk.
C. Search permission had previously been refused.
D. Official ship records have only recently been discovered.
30. What does Mark Gordon think of deep-sea exploration?
A. It is more difficult than space exploration.
B. It is a very expensive activity.
C. It is still in its early stage.
D. It can make explorers very rich，
B
I live in Mumbai, India, a big city, but I came from a remote Kerala village. When I was a- boy, hardly anyone spoke English around me. So, at age nine, Dad sent me to Montfort, an exclusive boarding school. There, I had to speak English or be punished. My uniform was typical English
public school：grey jacket，tie，and black leather shoes一so different from the clothes most people in my village wore. And our official school sport was cricket, something I'd never heard of, let alone played, before arriving.
Montfort had been built for the children of the British officials who once ruled India ’ but by the time I arrived in 1961, nearly all the students were from powerful Indian families. Its English traditions, however, continued.
When I returned home for the holidays still wearing my uniform, people stared at me like I was an alien. “Speak some English,”they teased. Looking back, I unwittingly brought a bit of English culture to my village.
But English and too much Western influence are precisely what many traditionalists and politicians fear. They ask：Will such influences finish off our own culture?
Various leaders have tried to erase the British traditions, pulling down old British statues and replacing many British-rule city names with older native names. Some even advocate changing our weekly day of rest from the "Western" Sunday to the “Hindu" Tuesday.
Extreme responses I say. You can't change history, and it's only natural for foreign influences to affect a nation's culture. So Indian culture, as it is today, is really a mixture derived from centuries of foreign invasions.
Add to that the massive changes of the 20th century resulting from the television, jet-age travel, the Internet, etc.
Everything from clothes and language to food keeps changing, yet we remain Indian. I believe that Asian cultures are too ancient and deep-rooted to be weakened by foreign influences.
Allow me to illustrate ray point. Some time ago, I took my visiting Singapore-born-and- raised cousin to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. Later, while driving home，I talked about the fine Chinese food we'd just had.
“Was that Chinese food?”my cousin exclaimed. “Oh, I didn't know. ”It must have tasted too Indian for him to realise it.
Meanwhile, like countless others, my village has transformed over the past decades. Many people wear modern clothes and TV brings cricket into local homes. There's even an English- language school，where you can hear kids giggling，yelling，flirting — all in English，but with an Indian accent. Just like the Chinese food you get in India.
Are these foreign influences something to worry about? I don't think so. India's Chinese food tastes pretty good to me!
31. What can we infer about the author?
A. He was a supporter of British rule in India.
B. He came from a wealthy family.
C. His family was unpopular in the village.
D. He was partly educated in Britain.
32. Which of the following are mentioned by the author as British influences on Indian society?
a. Place names
b. Language
c. Food
d. Architecture
e. Sport
f. Education
A. a, b, d, e
B. b, d, e, f
C. a, b, e, f
D. b, c, e, f
33. Why does the author use the example of Chinese food in India?
A. To show how foreign customs are adapted to suit local conditions.
B. To argue that overseas influences have enriched the lives of local people.
C. To explain why foreign influences on local culture should be limited.
D. To indicate the loss of local cultural traditions resulting from foreign influences.
34. In the last part of the passage, the author again refers to his village to show _________ .
A. life there has improved a lot
B. its culture has become less Indian
C. culture continues to change over time
D. his disapproval of modern youth
35. The main purpose of the passage is to ______ .
A. inform
B. persuade
C. describe
D. criticise
C
Are you an optimist? Do you look at your glass and
see it as half full? Do you believe that every cloud has a
silver lining and that generally things turn out for the best?
Do you believe that if something is meant to be, it will be?
If you reply "yes" to all of these questions, then you are an optimist. You probably are enthusiastic，cheerful and outgoing. You may well be successful at work and in love.
But you may be misguided because things don't turn out for the best. You may believe that when one door closes another one opens (for example，you may fail to land a new job，another chance will come around soon), Wrong. When one door closes, another door slams in your face. That's bitter reality.
Now a book has been published which confirms what we pessimists(悲观者）have suspected all along. It's called The Positive Power of Defensive Pessimism. Its author argues that defensive pessimism can lead to positive results. Defensive pessimism is a strategy used to manage fear，anxiety and worry. Defensive pessimists prepare for things by setting low outcomes for themselves. They carefully consider everything that may go wrong and plan for ways to handle these problems. And this gives them a sense of control. Lawrence Sanno, a psychology professor, says, "What's interesting about defensive pessimists is that they tend to be very successful people, so their low opinion of the situation's outcomes is not realistic. They use it to motivate themselves to perform better. ”
So far, so good. This is not rocket science. Defensive pessimists prepare carefully and consider what might go wrong, whether at work, on a date or even in a sports game. It makes sense to have a back-up plan. There are many sayings in English urging caution. For example, “Don't put all your eggs in one basket," and “ Don't count your chickens until they hatch. “ To have a confident and optimistic approach to life's problems is good. But listen to what Woody Alien ，the American comedian says, ”Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem.“There are pros and cons to being an optimist and a pessimist. Don't feel bad if you see the glass half empty. You are a realist. But lighten up and hook up with someone who sees the same glass half full.
36. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A book that has recently been published.
B. The dangers of being too optimistic.
C. The benefits of defensive pessimism.
D. How to become successful in life.
37. The underlined word “ it" in paragraph 3 refers to_____.
A. the final outcome
B. their low opinion
C. people's motivation
D. their performance
38. The underlined sentence “This is not rocket science" in paragraph 4 means_____.
A. the cost is not so high
B. there is no real proof
C. it's not a dangerous thing to do
D. it is quite simple to understand
39. The writer would probably describe himself as_____.
A. an optimist
B. a realist
C. a defeatist
D. a scientist
40. Which of the following English expressions would a defensive pessimist believe?
A. “Every cloud has a silver lining.”
B.“The glass is half full not half empty.”
C.“Whatever will be, will be.”
D. “Don't put all your eggs in one basket.”
D
During lectures, my students often ask which is the most difficult language to learn. It's not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. For a person's first language these factors are unimportant because people learn their mother tongue naturally. So the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.
Studies have shown that native speakers of Spanish find Portuguese much easier to learn than, say, native speakers of Chinese, because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different. So a person's first language affects their learning of a second language. The greater the differences between a second language and the first, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many Westerners think that Chinese is the hardest language to learn because of its writing system and pronunciation. But for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing is less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.
A recent study reported that British embassy staff found that the second hardest language to learn was Japanese. More surprising was the language that they found most problematic — Hungarian. In this case the issue was not the writing system (as both English and Hungarian use a similar alphabet) but grammatical complexity. Hungarian has 35 cases (forms of a noun according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc. ) and it was this that caused the British diplomatic personnel most difficulty. One suspects they would have even more problems with Tabassaran, a Caucasian
language with 48 cases, if they ever had to learn it.
Teachers and the circumstances in which a language is learned also play important roles，as does each learner's motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day-to-day life.
Put simply，no language is easy Io learn well，though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge, but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another. In the end, it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
41. According to the passage, who is likely to have the most difficulty learning a new language?
A. A Korean person learning French.
B. A Spanish person learning Portuguese.
C. A German person learning English.
D. A Chinese person learning Japanese.
42. Which language do British embassy staff find most difficult to learn? .
A. Japanese.
B. Caucasian.
C. Hungarian.
D. Tabassaran.
43. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor affecting language learning?
A. The amount of time spent studying the new language.
B. The environment in which language learning takes place.
C. The reasons a person has for learning the new language.
D. The similarity between a person's first language and the new language.
44. Why does the author believe there's no single hardest language?
A. All languages are equally difficult to learn well.
B. With enough effort, any language can be learned well.
C. There is not enough evidence to make any final conclusion.
D. People's background and learning situations determine which language is hardest.
45. The writer is probably_____.
A. a language learner
B. a language teacher
C. a newspaper journalist
D. an embassy official

More and more parents are sending their children on “micro-foreign study tours”. Parents hope these tours, typically 10 to 14 days travelling through English-speaking countries such as America or the UK, will help improve their children's language proficiency as well as provide them with a greater understanding of the local customs and culture.
But while these tours are “micro" in terms of time, they certainly aren't micro in price. The average tour costs RMB 30,000！
And just how useful are they? First of all，participating children don't have much time to “study”. Th ey typically attend a few morning lessons then travel to some world-famous universities or scenic spots in the afternoon and on the weekend. Their exposure to the local culture comes mainly during the time they stay with a local family, usually 2 or 3 days. For the rest of the tour they are with their Chinese classmates，almost always speaking Chinese. And on some tours ，organizers take students, who are often too young to make sensible decisions, on shopping trips where they're encouraged to buy all kinds of useless "souvenirs". No wonder when they return, most children talk of the "fun we had，’and "places we saw’’ rather than the "things we learnt".
So some parents are now having second thoughts about the value of these micro-foreign study tours. How much do they really help their children? Are they worth the money? And finally，are the tours meant for study or just for pleasure?

广东省广州市2013年初中毕业生学业考试 英语答案解析 一、听力 略 二、语言知识与运用 第一节单项选择 16.【答案】C 【解析】考查冠词。名词the boy被in white这个介词短语做定语修饰，特指“穿白色衣服”的那个男孩，故用定冠词the。 17.【答案】A 【解析】考查非谓语动词。不定式做tell的宾语补足语，构成tell sb．to do sth的结构。对不定式进行否定在to前加not，即not to do 18.【答案】B 【解析】考查反身代词。by oneself为“靠某人自己”，该题的主语the man为男士，故用himself（他自己）。 19.【答案】C 【解析】考查宾语从句的连词。宾语从句欠缺talk bout的宾语部分，故排除how和when（副词，只能做状语）；根据句意，我无法理解你所正在谈论的事情。故用what（什么）而不是which（哪一个）。 20.【答案】A 【解析】考查情态动词。根据句意，“我必须现在完成作业吗？”由答句可知，你没有必要（现在完成），故用needn't（没必要）；mustn't表“禁止”，shouldn't表“不应该”，can't表“不能”。 21.【答案】D 【解析】考查不可数名词。news为“新闻”，是不可数名词，所以不能用只能修饰可数名词的many和afewalot 后面要加of才能加名词。 22.【答案】B 【解析】考查介词。根据句意，“没有你的帮忙，我没法做这件事情”。故用without（没有，无）；with（有，伴随），for和to（对于），均不符合题意。 23.【答案】C 【解析】考查固定搭配。take away“带走”，take off“起飞”，take care of“照顾”take out of“从…..取出”。 24.【答案】B 【解析】考查时态。when引导一个过去时态的从句，可知主句动作发生在过去，故用一般过去。
广州市2020年高三第二次模拟考试 英语 第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分) 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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 WENQIANG A We can all think of times when people didn't make remembering easy. Directions given at machine-gun speed. New people introduced in a flood of names and handshakes. Whenever information is passed between people, it’s all too easy for it to go in one ear and straight out of the other. Thankfully, the opposite is also true. Look around you, and you’ll see parents who can get their children to rem ember exactly what they were told; advertisers who know how to imprint their sales messages on our brains. So, how do they do? Their secrets can be summed up in four simple words: focus, imagery, reasons and engagement. FOCUS means ensuring that the person you’re talking to can concentrate on learning. Choose your moment carefully. Check that they can properly hear or see the information. Communicate slowly and clearly enough for their memory to cope. IMAGERY helps information to stick. Do everything your can to make other people “see”the ideas you’re giving them. Add visual details to directions, and illustrate abstract concepts with metaphors. REASONS to remember help people to put in the mental effort. So, make it clear that your words are important, and be explicit about why. Maybe this information will save them time, protectthem from embarrassment, or let them enjoy a particular experience or event. EMGAGEMENT requires you to ask questions. Point out links between new concepts and things listeners already know. Activate their senses, spark their curiosity, get them doing something physical, or simply make them laugh. The next time you’ve got an important message to pass on, put some of these techniques to the test. You’ll discover that there are benefits on both sides when you know how to FIRE people’s memories into action. 21. What is the main purpose of the text? A.To report new research. B.To provide some advice. C.To explain a problem. D.To define some terms. 22. How can you do to help a listener “focus” on w hat you are saying? A.Select the appropriate time to raise the topic. B.Do something humorous to get their attention. C.Make sure the information provided is correct.
第I卷 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 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、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 A Many people would love to leave their jobs behind and have a life-changing adventure overseas. They imagine lying under palm trees as the sun goes down. However, life overseas is not always easy, and many are not prepared for the shock of living in an alien culture. The honeymoon period At first, for those who actually decide to move abroad, life is an exciting adventure. They enjoy exploring their new surroundings, and life seems like an extended holiday. They don’t mind trying the local cuisine and discovering the local culture. They can even afford to practice their foreign-language skills without fear of making mistakes. Trouble in paradise In many cases, when people consider moving to another country, they often fail to realize how different life will be. As time goes by, they become frustrated when language and cultural misunderstandings become a daily headache. In this stage, the visitors begin to withdraw from life in the host country and avoid spending time with local people in favor of mixing with others from their own cultural background. The road to recovery Gradually, most visitors realize they must accept the differences and not fight against them. This change encourages them to improve their language skills and slowly they manage to do the things they could easily do at home, such as opening a bank account. This new-found confidence enables them to see a side of life which very few tourists get to witness. Adjusting to life abroad can often be a real problem. The secret to overcoming it is to stop trying to change your host country: you will not succeed. If not, you risk losing your dream and having to return to the old life you wanted to leave behind. 21. Why do people moving abroad feel excited at first? A. They find foreign living much easier. B. They have the necessary language skills. C. They love the adventure and exploration. D. They enjoy meeting people from different cultures. 22. According to the author, what is the main problem many people moving abroad face? A. Homesickness. B. Culture shock C. Health problems. D. Lack of employment. 23. What would the author suggest people moving abroad do? A. Study the local language. B. Go on holidays frequently. C. Learn how to open a bank account. D. Seek out people from their home country. B Australia loves interesting money. In 1988, it was the first country to replace paper money with special plastic banknotes. Now it’s introduced a new five-dollar bill so technologically advanced that many experts are calling it the money of the future! At first glance, the new note looks much like the old one. It has the same pink colour and main pictures on the front and back. But look closer, and you will notice a clear window running down the middle, surrounded by images of the yellow Prickly Moses, a type of Australian plant. Tilt（使倾斜）the note a little and you will see the Eastern Spinebill, an Australian bird, beating its wings as if trying to fly away. Turn the bill from side to side, and you will notice the picture of a small building at the bottom of the note spins, and the image of “5” changes position. While these moveable features are impressive and entertaining, that was not the reason Australian government officials spent ten years developing them. Their primary purpose was to make it impossible for criminals to produce their own fake notes. The new five-dollar note also has something to help blind people easily identify the money. It has a raised bump alongside the top and bottom, enabling blind people to quickly determine its value. The credit for persuading the Australian government to add this all-important bump goes to 15-year-old Connor McLeod. The blind Sydney teenager came up with the idea in 2014 after being unable to tell how much money he had received for Christmas. Connor says he was so embarrassed at not being able to see the difference between notes that he only carried coins to pay for food at the school cafeteria. To
