III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: 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.
Over the last 15 years, digital communication has brought in more changes than the printing press did in 1570. And those most likely to use them in this world are teenagers, whose brains appear to have an extraordinary volume to adapt to the world around them, according to Dr Jay Giedd, a(n) 51 brain expert.
We are now discovering that, as a species, our brains during the teenage years are still flexible and capable of 52 . Having a more flexible brain, 53 , means that certain parts of it, such as desire control and the ability to make long-term decisions, haven’t developed yet, which may also explain why we spend a(n) 54 period living under the protection of our parents rather than leaving home at the age of 12 or 13. This also means that the teenage brain can adapt to new technology, enabling teenagers to 55 the increasing pace of digital technology and giving them an advantage when it comes to multitasking.
In the USA, on average teenagers spend 8.5 hours a day using computers, mobiles, and other devices to learn, interact, and play. This increases to 11.5 hours if you include all of the 56 that goes on, such as talking on the phone while watching TV. As they stare at these screens, they’re taking in and sorting through an incredible amount of information.
There are 57 about how social media is affecting the way the brain learns to 58 , as one of the most important skills that we learn as children is how to make friends and interact with people around us. Geidd says that a lot of what goes on inside our brains is social. Social interactions are now being 59 by technology – you could have hundreds of friends, all of whom are real people that you interact with and scientists aren’t sure whether we’ll be able to develop the same 60 using social media.
There is a(n) 61 of the growing digital trend: YouTube shows the teenagers all over the world are watching the same videos and laughing at the same jokes, indicating that they are more 62 than teenagers in the past. They may be keen on 63 their friends and posting updates on social media sites, but teenagers today are probably going to have access to technology and 64 social and educational opportunities that anyone with a less flexible brain may have trouble imagining. Nevertheless, there is a cut-off point, and by the age of 30, our brains in their ways, making it more
65 for us to adapt and cope with new technologies.

52. A. functioning B. noticing C. adjusting D. deciding

Section B
Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. 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)
Sebastian Faulks has written many novels, including Devil May Care, the latest James Bond book. This cutting comes from a very different kind of novel called Charlotte Gray. The setting is a transit(中转)camp near Paris during the Second World War, where a group of people, including two small children, Andre and Jacob, await transport to take them to a concentration camp outside France. Although these people –the ‘deportees’ of the cutting – are not fully aware of this, they face certain death.
The Last Night
Andre was lying on the floor when a man came with postcards on which the deportees might write a final message. He advised them to leave them at the station or throw them from the train as camp orders forbade access to the post. Two or three pencils that had survived the camps search were passed round among the people in the room. Some wrote with weeping passion, some with great care, as though their safety, or at least the way in which they were remembered, depended upon their choice of words.
A woman came with a sandwich for each child to take on the journey. She also had a bucket of water, round which they gathered, holding out food cans they passed from one to another. One of the older boys hugged her in his gratitude, but the bucket was soon empty. When she was gone, there were only the small hours of the night to go through. Andre was lying on the straw, and Jacob leaned close to him for warmth.
Five buses had come in through the main entrance, and now stood trembling in the corner of the yard. At a long table … the commandant of the camp himself sat with a list of names that another policeman was calling out in alphabetical order. Andre heard his name and moved with Jacob towards the bus. From the other side of the courtyard, from windows open on the dawn, a shower of food was thrown towards them by women crying and calling out their names.
Andre looked up, and in a chance angle of light he saw a woman’s face in which the eyes were fixed with terrible fierceness on a child beside him. Why did she stare as though she hated him? Then it came to Andre that she was not looking in hatred, but had kept her eyes so intensely open in order to fix the picture of her child in her mind. She was looking to remember, for ever. …

(C)
Lindsay Renwick, the mayor of Deniliquin, a country town in New South Wales, misses the constant whir (嗡嗡声) of the rice mill whose giant fans dried the rice. The Deniliquin mill, the largest rice mill in the Southern Hemisphere (南半球), once processed enough grain to meet the needs of 20 million people globally. But six years of drought have had a destructiv e effect, reducing Australia’s rice crop by 98 percent and leading to the mothballing of the mill last December.
Drought affects every agriculture industry based in Australia, not just rice – from sheep farming, the country’s other backbone, to the cultiv ation of grapes for wine, the fastest-growing crop there, with that expansion often coming at the expense of rice. The drought’s effect on rice has produced the greatest impact on the rest of the world, so far. It is one factor contributing to skyrocketing prices, and many scientists believe it is among the earliest signs that a warming planet is starting to affect food production.
Researchers are looking for solutions to global rice shortages –for example, rice that blooms earlier in the day, when it is cooler, to fight against global warming. Rice plants that happen to bloom on hot days are less likely to produce grains of rice, a difficulty that is already starting to emerge in inland areas of China and other Asian countries as temperatures begin to cli mb. ―There will be problems very soon unless we have new varieties of rice in place,‖ said Reiner Wassmann, climate change director at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The recent reports on climate change carried a warning that could make the news even worse: that existing models for the effects of climate change on agriculture did not yet include newer findings that global warming could reduce rainfall and make it more variable.
Yet the effects of climate change are not uniformly bad for rice. Rising concentrations (浓度) of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, can actually help rice –although the effect reduces or disappears if the plants face unnecessary heat, inadequate water, severe pollution or other stresses. Still, the flexibility of farmers here has persuaded some climate experts that, particularly in developed countries, the effects of climate change may be relieved, if not completely avoided. ―I’m not as negative as most people,‖ said Will Steffen, director of the Fenner School of Environment and Society at Australian National University. ―Farmers are learning how to do things differently.‖Meanwhile, changes like the use of water to grow wine grapes instead of rice carry their own costs, as the developing world is discovering. ―Rice is an essential food,‖ said Graeme Haley, the general manager of the town of Deniliquin. ―W ine is not.‖
73. By ―the mothballing of the mill‖ (in Paragraph 1) the author mos t probably means the mill is
______.
A. kept unprocessed
B. left unused
C. being entirely restored
D. being pushed round
74. To find the ways to cope with the global rice shortage, researchers are ______.
A. seeking new types of rice which could bloom at a lower temperature
B. building greenhouses which could provide more heat for rice to grow
C. studying climate changes in China which may affect rice growing in Asia
D. looking for alternative agriculture industries which may take the place of rice
75. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?
A. Rice plants are fond of higher temperature in the process of growing.
B. Global warming has shown few signs of influence on agriculture.
C. Rice prices are rising steadily owing to the crop failure in Australia.
D. Global warming may contribute to more complicated weather conditions.
76. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. Australia is the largest rice producing country around the world
B. most people look on the bright side of the flexibility of farmers
C. climate c hanges have simply brought negative effects to people’s lives
D. wine grape cultivation has threatened the rice production in Australia
77. Which of the following best serves as the title of the passage?
A. Rice shortage and wine boom
B. Drought, the enemy of rice production
C. Rice crisis and its solution
D. Rice issue, a focus of the public attention
Section C
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
What colour is it today? What shape is that smell? What does that pain sound like? These questions might seem like nonsense, but four people in 100 might think they make perfect sense. That four percent have synesthesia, and they naturally experience certain senses together. One form of this is pairing numbers or letters with a fixed colour –a blue ―1‖ or a red ―D.‖ Other synesthetes, people with synest hesia, may think the word ―hurricane‖ tastes salty. Yet others with ―mirror-touch synesthesia‖ see someone hit on the head and also feel the hit themselves.
Synesthesia is not completely understood though it is in our genes. The white matter (脑白质) of synesthetes is organized differently from that of people without synesthesia, which may account for the differences in perception (感知). Synesthesia is widely accepted and researched today, but that hasn’t always been true. Though it caught scientific interest in the late 1800s, it was later rejected as a self-created way of thinking. But as people have become more fascinated by the differences in individual perception, a focus on synesthesia has been renewed. At the present time, scientists in various fields are examining the phenomenon.
As scientists continue to study synesthesia, certain advantages have been noticed. Studies show that the sensation connections that synesthetes experience aid them in abilities related to memory. Researchers believe that this advantage may help stop the loss of cognitive(认知) function in the elderly. This aspect of synesthesia could even help patients recover from brain injuries. Synesthetes also tend to be artists, singers Pharrell Williams and Lady Gaga being some famous examples. Most likely, synesthesia doesn’t give artistic sensitivity, but it’s understandable that seeing colours in music, for instance, could inspire art.
Strong drugs and increasing blindness have been known to cause synesthesia, but these are not good options for obvious reasons. One recent emphasis of the study of synesthesia is to determine whether non-synesthetes can acquire it. For now, the University of East London is training adults to establish letter-colour connections for memory improvement to some effect. It may not be long before words taste like our favourite foods and our favourite songs look like fireworks.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)
78. According to the passage synesthetes are those __________________.
79. Why do synesthetes have sensation connections while the others don’t?
80. What groups of people might profit from synesthesia according to the third paragraph?
81. Scientists are training adults to establish letter-colour connections to prove the possibility that

Section B
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Samuel Morse, the inventor of telegraph was born in the USA in 1791. He had always dreamed of being a painter, but his parents were afraid that he couldn’t make a living as a painter, so they made him become a bookseller. He worked as a bookseller but at night he would paint. Finally, his parents realized how he loved art so they found the money for him to study art in London. Morse painted portraits of people there, but not everyone would pay him, which almost made him quit painting.
One day in 1832, Morse heard some people talking about electricity, and suddenly, he had an idea —maybe electricity could convey messages! At that time messages would take months or even years to reach their destinations, so he started working on an alphabetical system that was later called Morse code. The only symbols he made up were a dash and a dot. Short codes were used for common letters and longer codes for less common letters. Morse code was a brilliant invention and it came into use all over the world in 1844.
Now listen again, please.
Questions:
11. Why didn’t Morse’s parents want him to be a painter?
12. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
13. What does the passage mainly tell us?
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Reality TV began in the early 1980s, when a Japanese television company made a series of programmes called Endurance. The programme hosts made contestants do really difficult and unpleasant things in every show but the number of viewers was enormous.
In Survivor, sixteen people are taken to a remote island and made to stay there for more than a month. They have to find their own food or go hungry. Every three days, one contestant must leave the island and the last person wins one million dollars.
It’s not just adults who take part in these shows. A television series in Britain in 2003, called That’ll teach ’em, took 30 teenagers and put them in a fictional King’s school, where they lived for one month and received ancient-style schooling without anything from modern life. Although there was no prize money in this programme, the teenagers learned a lot from the experience.
In 2004, there was a programme in Britain called Exhausted, where contestants were not allowed to sleep for seven days to win 97,000 pounds prize money.
Programmes like these are broadcast all over the world. But some people think that contestants are often made to do dangerous things to make good television, so these programmes discomfort both the contestants and the viewers.
Now listen again, please.
Questions:
14. Which programme has the rule of kicking one contestant out every three days?
15. What does the speaker think of the television series That’ll teach ’em?
16. What do the four programmes mentioned in the passage have in common?

Additional findings suggest that adolescents internalize their reactions to their mothers’ conflict with adult friends and (30)______they have learned might lead them to anxietyand depression.

可再生的海洋能 ①大家应该知道波涛汹涌的大海，本身就是一个巨大的能源库。所谓海洋能，狭义地来说是指海洋本身所蕴含的能量，这是一种几乎无穷无尽的可再生能源。②潮汐现象起因于地球、月亮和太阳相对的天体运动。潮汐发电是利用海水潮涨潮落的势能发电。潮汐能主要集中在狭窄的浅海、港湾和海峡，例如在加拿大芬地湾，潮差可达16米以上，在英国的塞坟河口和法国的朗斯河口，最大潮差可达15.2米和13.5米，我国的钱塘江最大潮差也有9米。 ③人类利用潮汐发电已有近百年历史，潮汐发电是海洋能利用中最现实、技术最成熟也是规模最大的一种。最常见的利用潮汐发电的方法是，在适当的地点建造一个大坝，涨潮时，海水从大海流入坝内水库，带动水轮机旋转发电;落潮时，海水流向大海，同样推动水轮机旋转发电。因此，潮汐发电所用的水轮机需要在正反两个方向的水流作用下均能同向旋转。 ④海浪是由风对海水的摩擦和推压引起的。因此，海浪发电实际上也是风能的另一种形式。海浪能的利用被称为“发明家的乐园”，现在全世界波浪能利用的机械设计数以千计，获得专利证书的也达数百件。英国把波浪发电研究放在新能源开发的首位，以投资多、技术领先而著称。 ⑤除了上述两种以外，海洋能还包括了海流能、盐差能等。但海流发电存在一系列的关键技术问题难以解决，全世界均无大规模海流发电的成效。淡水向盐水渗透形成的盐差能，目前处于实验室试验水平，离实际应用还有较长的路程。 ⑥海洋能的优点十分明显。它是一种可再生能源，而且这种再生过程失十分迅速、短暂。海洋能是一种洁净的能源，它既不会污染大气，也不会带来温室效应。然而，海洋能虽然有着许许多多的好处，但它的获取也是十分困难的。 ⑦海洋能总量巨大，可面对海洋这个巨大水体，人们的活动能力（人力、财力、物力）相对说来极其渺小。而且，大尺度液体流动几乎总是“湍流”——具有不稳定和不规则的特性，海洋也不例外。 ⑧海洋能在空间上的存在也是不可移动的，它不可能像其它载能体一样，按人类希望的时间或空间来进行主管布局，海洋能的获取只可在水介质及沿岸的立体空间内进行。 ⑨随着科学技术的发展进步，海洋能利用的障碍也在一点点被克服。有人说，海洋能将是21世纪的能源，我们期待这样的预言能够真正实现。 15、第②段加点词“也有”在句子中的作用 是： 16、第④段划线句称“海洋能利用”为“发明家的乐园”是因 为（2分） 17、海洋能的优点主要 是：、、 。 人类获取海洋能困难的主要原因有哪些？请分条概述：（9分） （1）；（2）；（3）。 18、第②-⑤段介绍了四种不同类型海洋能，其说明顺序这样安排有什么好处，请简要分析。（4分）

2016年沈阳市高三质量监测（二） A Jack was born without eyes. He was very lucky as he grew up having other kittens(young cats) to socialize（交往）with, and was used to people from the moment he was born. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up. That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no one would like to take him.” Without thinking I told her that I did want the kitten. When we first brought him home, Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had no issues running around and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, he’ll stop. But we just call his name and talk to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us. A few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new barn cat named Bear. Jack and Bear have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can’t see. He always knows when Bear is around. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They run after each other around and wrestle（摔跤）.They’ll lie down in the grass together when tired Jack is truly an inspiration. I’ve owned lots of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest and most playful. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. He doesn’t need pity. I think Jean, owner of Gumbo, an other eyeless cat, said it best when she told me that cats don’t have disabilities, they have adaptabilities. 21. Why did Jack come to our home? A. I cared for an eyeless cat. B. I didn’t mind whether he was blind. C. No other young cats kept him company. D. My friend begged me to take him home. 22. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Jack often wrestles with Bear indoors. B. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat. C. Jack quickly adapts to the new environment. D. Jack is good at talking and playing with people. 23. What does the underlined word “issue” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Trouble B. Fun C. Luck D. Business 24. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. A cat has nine lives. B. All is well that ends well. C. God help those who help themselves. D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
