of books．I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade．Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share．I tried to ignore it，but as any writer will tell you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down．I didn't have a computer，word processor，or even a typewriter．Still，I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me．When I was done I didn't know how to share it．There was no internet back then，no smart phones，and no social media．I sought out the editor of my local county newspaper andasked him to print what I had written．He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness．He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write．I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well．Years later at the urging of my readers I even self﹣published two collections of my stories in book form．Through my writing I slowly became more than I was．In my writings I encountered my highest self．In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lies in us all．In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well．I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not．With every choice we make，with every thought we hold，and with everything we do we are writing our own life story．Lance Wubbels once wrote："I hope you realize your life is truly your life．It belongs to you．It is your story to write with love．Day by day，line by line，write it well．"（1）As a boy，when the author found he had something to share，．A．he wrote it downB．he ignored itC．he shared it on social mediaD．he told it to a writer（2）How did the author begin his writing career？A．He was hired as a newspaper editor．B．He put his stories online by himself．C．He self﹣published two books．D．He was helped by a local newspaper editor．（3）What does the author think of

following can be the best title for the text？A．A Way to be a WriterB．A Way to Share IdeasC．Living is WritingD．Writing is the Source of Love3．（8分）Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone？If yes，you're not alone．These days，many people suffer from the stress of FOMO （fear of missing out）．They reach for their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning，and for the rest of the day，they constantly scroll down the timelines of their social media apps to get the latest updates．Despite the convenience smartphones bring，many people struggle with their digital habits．As Sameer Samat，US tech company vice president of product management，said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference on May 8，70% of people don't want to spend so much time on their phones．This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version of its Android operating system．This new app includes well﹣being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices．It all starts with a bird's﹣eye view．Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits．For example，users can see how many times they've unlocked their phone and how many times they've checked their social media apps，as well as how much time they spend on each app every day．Once the users see this information，they'll be able to make some changes．With the App Timer functions，users can set a time limit for how long they can use each app for every day．After they've hit the limit，they won't be able to launch the app until the next day．But even if users become more mindful of their usage，they're still likely to be drawn in by notifications （通知）．This is where the Shush feature comes in．It automatically silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts his/her phone face down．If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smartphones，these new functions are just one way of doing that．After all，who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiestanswer would be just to use your willpower？（1）People under the pressure of FOMO may．A．have trouble with their sleepB．find it hard to focus on anythingC．be addicted to their mobile phonesD．prefer to download the latest apps（2）What inspires Google to launch Dashboard？A．The limited functions of current Android system．B．People's complaint about their smartphones．C．Samat's impressive speech at a conference．D．Mobilephone users' great demand．（3）can track users' phone habits in detail．A．AndroidB．TimerC．ShushD．Dashboard（4）What can be learned from the passage？A．Dashboard turned out to be popular．B．Dashboard is a perfect choice to manage time properly．C．Strong willpower is the easiest way to avoid smartphone addiction．D．People are exploring other ways to stop overusing smartphones．4．（8分）Wild animals are known to listen to each other for warnings that predators are near．Some birds，for example，flee when neighbors make a loud noise to announce a snake's presence．The fairy wren is a small Australian songbird．It is not born knowing the "languages" of other birds．But recent research says it can learn the meaning of a few important sounds．Andrew Radford is a biologist at the University of Bristol in England and co﹣writer of the new report published in early August in the journal Current Biology．He told the Associated Press，"We knew before that some animals can translate the meanings of otherspecies' ‘foreign languages，' but we did not know how that ‘language learning' came about．"Birds have several ways of learning life skills．Some knowledge is genetically passed down by their parents and some comes from direct experience with the world．But Radford and other scientists are exploring a third kind of knowledge：information from fellows．Radford and researchers at the Australian National University carried out the study in the country's National Botanic Gardens in Canberra．They attached to their bodies specially﹣designed，sound﹣producing equipment called "tweeter speakers．" They wanted to see if fairy wrens would react to sounds of other birds even if they could not see them．The scientists first played the birds two recorded sounds that they likely had never heard before．One was a warning cry of a thornbill，a bird not native to Australia．The other was a computer﹣generated bird sound called "buzz．"When the 16 fairy wrens in the study first heard the sounds，they had no special reaction．The scientists then tried to train half of the birds to recognize the thornbill's cry as a warning sound．They tried to train the other half to recognize the computer﹣generated "buzz" as a warning call．After three days，the scientists tested what the birds had learned ﹣and their students passed the test．The fairy wrens trained with the thornbill's cry，fled when they heard it．The group trained with the buzz，fled when they heard that sound．Neither group reacted to the sound taught to the other．（1）What does the underlined word "predators" in the first paragraph mean？A．enemiesB．neighborsC．birdsD．snakes（2）Which is the right order of the experiment？a．The fairy wrens were divided into two parts．b．The fairy wrens made no reaction to the strange sounds．c．The fairy wrens wore sound﹣providing equipment．d．The fairy wrens were trained separately．e．The fairy wrens passed the test successfully．A．a b c d eB．c b a d eC．c e b a dD．a c e d b（3）It can be learned from the study that the fairy wrens．A．were not good "foreign language" learnersB．made no reaction to the sounds all the timeC．took both of the sounds as warningsD．fled when hearing the sound trained with（4）The passage is probably taken from．A．A biology textbookB．A science magazineC．A science fictionD．A wildlife brochure第二节（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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5．（10分）Gratitude is not only an art performed in daily life，but also part of our traditional virtue．Has your mother or friend told you that you're an ungrateful person？Do you feel unable to appreciate the world or people around you？Are you obsessed with things you don't have instead of being thankful for what you do have？（1）then you will definitely need to work on being a more grateful person．Showing gratitude has been put forward in the last few decades．（2）But there are still some tips that help make it possible for you to practice gratitude．Refusing to play the victim is the first step you're supposed to take．（3）If you want to be grateful，stop complaining the world，your teachers，your friends and your family about not putting themselves in your shoes，and focus on how much they've helped and cared about you．V olunteering in your community is another effective way to show how grateful you are for what the world has given you．Whether you're helping clean up a local park，working in asoup kitchen，or teaching children or adults in your community to learn to read，your perspective towards life will change positively．（4）（5）You shouldn't always be good only to your close friends or family members．You can help a neighbor look for a lost dog．You can also help an old lady carry her grocery．You don't have to search for these opportunities purposely．Sometimes they will present themselves．So when they come，act with generosity．You'll be more grateful for your role played in the world．A．However hard you try to avoid these questionsB．If you find yourself involved in one of these circumstancesC．Gradually，you'll be more grateful for the chances to repay the societyD．Doing a random act of kindness is also a great way of practicing gratitude．E．While such encouragement is morally meaningful，it seems to be a little abstract．F．Ungrateful persons are always blaming the world for the problems and owing all the faults to othersG．When you reflect on your thoughts，feelings，emotions and actions，you are actually reflecting on your values．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（共20

They made the arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course particularly features Napoleon.Napoleon （now I know） picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the throne （王权） as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it. Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth, the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the new ruler of Elba.I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother, but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father. Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn't troubled much by this. He was too busy riding everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled （流放的）conqueror's anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.(1) What did the author do for the visit to Elba?A. He did research on its past.B. He arranged transportation.C. He planned bicycling routes.D. He booked accommodation.(2) Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?A. Napoleon and his army.B. Etruscans and other Greeks.C. Dorians.D. Romans.(3) What does the underlined word "ensconced"probably mean?A. Settled.B. Locked.C. Cured.D. Controlled.(4) What came to the author's mind during his visit to Napoleon's gardens?A. Beautiful views on Elba.B. Terrible living conditions on Elba.C. Napoleon's ambition to regain power.D. Hardship of Napoleon's return to France.4、【来源】 2019年广东深圳高三二模（D篇）第32~35题8分2020~2021学年广东深圳龙岗区华中师范大学龙岗附属中学高二上学期期中（D篇）第12~15题10分(每题2.5分)2018~2019学年重庆沙坪坝区重庆市第一中学高二下学期期末（D篇）第32~35题8分An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations （迁徙）.Migratory birds （候鸟） flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is accompanied by some human behavior. "In English-language Wikipedia （维基百科）, the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States, " said the lead author John Mittermeier.And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly 2.5 billion Wikipedia search records, for 32, 000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world's biological diversity. It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation.Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He commented, "I think there's a concern among conservationists （生态环境保护者） that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they're not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people's Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature." Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, "By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help."(1) What have researchers found about species searches?A. They strengthen ties among people.B. They affect the animal movements.C. They differ in language backgrounds.D. They reflect animal migration seasons.(2) What is the purpose of writing Paragraph 3?A. To summarize the research process.B. To further support the research findings.C. To show the variety of species searches.D. To present researchers' heavy work load.(3) How does Mittermeier feel about the search results?A. Satisfied with Wikipedia's service.B. Worried about Wikipedia behavior.C. Amazed at people's care about nature.D. Sad about people's not getting close to nature.(4) Why does Richard think such search data is useful?A. It helps to aim at conservation targets.B. It increases interest in big data approaches.C. It keeps track of trends in biologists' work.D. It pushes people to solve difficult problems.二、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）5、【来源】 2019年广东深圳高三二模第36~40题10分2020~2021学年广东深圳龙岗区华中师范大学龙岗附属中学高二上学期开学考试第36~40题10分2018~2019学年重庆沙坪坝区重庆市第一中学高二下学期期末第36~40题10分Learn to Cite Sources（引用资料）During your university education, you'll be exposed to idea and scientific theories of scholars and scientists. Unavoidably, your own ideas will be shaped by the ideas you comeacross.1That means you should go beyond what you learn in your textbooks or in the library. Your original work is the basis for your professor's evaluation of your performance.Thus, academic honesty is fundamental in your university education. It demands that you cite the source materials you base your own work on.2Correctly citing your sources helps you distinguish your own ideas from those of other scholars. On the readers' side, it permits a reader to determine the depth of yourresearch.3On the contrary, lack of citing will only raise your reader's doubt.So you need to learn when to cite and how to provide an adequate or accurate reference list. If you fail to cite your sources, whether deliberately or carelessly, you will be found responsible for plagiarism（抄袭）.4If you are not sure, ask your professor for guidance before submitting the paper or report. Keep in mind this general rule: when in doubt, cite!5For example, students from East Asia may think that copying directly from sources is the proper way to research. Students in France, preparing for the final examination, may be encouraged to memorize whole passages and copy them into papers. Those cultural differences can lead to false assumptions about academic expectations in the country you study in.A. Some university students may cheat in different ways.B. These include other scholars' ideas, figures, graphs and so on.C. The academic challenge you face is to make something original.D. Often, students want to use others' opinions to support their own essays.E. It also allows a reader to appreciate your original contribution to the research.F. For international students, it is important to know local academic expectations.G. Not knowing academic regulations is an unacceptable excuse for such behavior.三、完形填空（每小题1.5分，共30分）6、【来源】 2019年广东深圳高三二模第41~60题30分2019~2020学年湖北荆州沙市区湖北省沙市中学高二上学期期中第35~55题30分Two-year-old Nancy is deaf.

AThe country is India. A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by acolonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and anAmerican naturalist.At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an armyofficer. The girl insists women have long outgrown thejumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouseera, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are,arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men.“A woman's reaction in any crisis," the officer says,“is to scream. And while a man mayfeel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has."The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of theother guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of thehostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers tohim. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor theservant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors.The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait fora snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the roombut he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place - under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movementwill frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arrestingthat it quietens everyone.“I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will countthree hundred - that's five minutes - and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying ..o.. hundred and eighty.."when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the snake emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Four orfive screams ring out as he jumps to slam shut the balcony doors.“There is your proof!" the host says.“A man has just shown us real control."“Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess,“How did you know that cobrawas in the room?"A faint smile comes across the woman's face as she repli es. “Because it was lying across myfoot.""21.What is the argument between the army officer and the young girl about?A. Whether women are afraid of mice.B. Whether men are calmer than women.C. Whether men are cleverer than women.D. Whether women would make suitable soldiers.22. Why is the servant asked to put out some milk?A. To play a trick.B. To serve the guests.C. To attract the snake .D. To feed the hostess's pet.23. Why does the scientist suggest the guests play a game?A. He doesn't want anyone to panic.B. He intends to test the officer's theory.C. He sees there was a snake in the room.D. He wants to entertain the other guests.24. What does the author imply through the hostess's final statement?A. The army officer's opinion is wrong.B. The hostess understood the American's intention.C. The American was surprised by the snake's presence.D. The hostess has had previous experience dealing with snakes.B25. What caused musicals to move in a new direction during the 1930's?A. The development of new musical instruments.B. The audience s demand for more realistic art forms.C. The rising popularity of other types of entertainment.D. The greater acceptance of black performers by white audiences.26. In which period did musical theatre become more complex and dramatic?A. Pre - 1900.B. 1900- 1929.C.1940- 1949.D.1950- 1959.27. What can be reasonably inferred about the musical West Side Story?A. It told its story in a new way.B. It was based on a true story.C. It was a non-Broadway show.D. It was not very successful at first.CIn 1874 Francis Galton, a British professor, analysed a sample of English scientists and foundthe vast majority to be first-born sons. This led him to theorise that first-born children enjoyed aspecial level of attention from their parents that allowed them to advance intellctually. Half acentury later Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychologist, made a similar argument relating to personality.First-born children, he suggested, were more diligent, while the later-born were more outgoing andemotionally stable. Many subsequent studies have explored these ideas, but their findings have beenvaried - some supporting and some rejecting the original conclusions.The main problem with the previous studies is that they were too small - often limited to afew dozen individuals. This would be true even if the statistical methods needed to analyse the datawere simple, but they are not. Distinguishing birth-order effects from those caused by family sizecomplicates matters, meaning still bigger samples must be analysed to obtain meaningful results.To overcome the limitation of these earlier studies, German social scientist Dr. HelmetSchmukle and his colleagues analysed three huge sets of data from America, Britain and Germany.These data sets, though collected for other purposes, included personality and intelligence tests on20, 186 people at different stages of their lives. The American tests were on individuals aged between29 and 35. The British tests were conducted on 50-year-olds. The German tests ran the whole span ofadult life, from 18 to 98.Birth order, they found, had no effect on personality: first-borns were no more, nor less,likely than their younger siblings to be hardworking, outgoing or anxious. But it did affectintelligence. In a family with two children, the first child was more intelligent than the second60% of the time, rather than the 50% that would be expected by chance. On average, thistranslated to a difference of 1.5 IQ points between first and second siblings. That figure agreeswith previous studies, and thus looks confirmed.It is, nevertheless, quite a small difference - and whether it is enough to account for Galton'soriginal observation is unclear. In any event, it is certainly not deterministic. Galton was theyoungest of nine.28. Alfred Adler concluded that first-born children were.A. more stableB. more sociableC. more intelligentD. more hardworking29. What does the underlined“they" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The data.B. The analyses.C. The previous studies.D. The statistical methods.30. Why was Schmukle's study considered superior to previous research?A. It involved a wider age range.B. It had a much larger sample size.C. It included a larger number of countries.D. It was conducted over a longer period of time.31. Why does the author mention Galton's family background in the last paragraph?A. To confirm Galton's difficult upbringing.B. To suggest Galton's theory may not be correct.C. To compare his experience with Galton's parents.D. To explain why Galton was interested in birth order.DPhotography has opened our eyes to a multitude of beauties, things we literally could nothave seen before the invention of the frozen image. It has greatly expanded our notion of whatis beautiful, what is aesthetically(审美上) pleasing. Items formerly considered trivial, and notworth an artist's paint, have been revealed and honored by the photograph: things as ordinary as afence post, a chair, a vegetable. And as technology has developed, photographers have exploredcompletely new points of view: those of the microscope, the eagle, the cosmos.What is it that delights the human eye and allows us to claim that a photograph is beautiful?Photography depends on the trinity of light, composition, and moment. Light literally makes therecording of an image possible, but in the right hands, light in a photograph can make the image soar. The same is true with composition. What the photographer chooses to keep in or out of theframe is all that we will ever see - but that combination is vital. And the moment that the shutter ispressed, when an instant is frozen in time, provides the whole image with meaning. When thethree - light, composition, and moment - are in balance, there is visual magic.Light, composition, and moment come together in a photograph to bring us the ultimatereality: a view of the world unknown prior to the invention of the camera. Before photography, thebasic artistic rules of painting were rarely broken. Images were made to please, not to capturereality. But as photography evolved, painterly rules were often reacted in the pursuit of fresh vision.Photographers became interested in the real world, good and bad, and it was the accidental detail thatwas celebrated. Photography invited the world to see with new eyes - to see photographically - andall of the arts have drawn new inspiration from this change.With these basic aesthetic tools, photographers have evolved from scientists longing to“fix"an image - any image - to artistic revolutionaries. Photographs have created a new way of seeing,changed our ideas of beauty and, most importantly, made art more democratic. They have given usvisual proof that the world is grander than we imagined, and that there is beauty, often overlooked,in nearly everything.32. Before the invention of photography, which of the following was least likely to appear in an artistic work?A. A great person.B. A lovely insect.C. A grand building.D. A beautiful landscape.33. What is the function of paragraph 2?A. To argue that photographic beauty is subjective.B. To explain the evolution of the concept of beauty.C. To describe the elements that make a successful photo.D. To illustrate different types of photographic techniques.34. How has photography affected other art forms?A. It has reduced their popularity.B. It has forced them to change their rules.C. It has changed their methods of composition.D. It has provided them with new points of view.35. What does the author mean by saying photography has“made art more demo cratic" ?A. It has expanded the concept of artistic beauty.B. It has challenged the status of traditional art forms.C. It has enabled the development of new artistic tools.D. It has allowed more people to take part in creative activities.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。

The effect was obviouslynamed after Leonardo da Vinci s famous painting featuring the woman with the mysterious smileand the steady stare. But ironically (讽刺地), a new study/ finds that Mona Lisa may not be allthat interested in tracking her observers. Two researchers from Bielefeld University in Germanyfound that the famous subject of the painting, also known, as "La Gioconda"，is actually lookingjust over your right shoulder.For the experiment , Horstmann and his research assistant Sebastian Loth gathered two dozenparticipants to take a look at the eyes of the painting. But they didn't just ask them if they thoughtMona Lisa was looking their way. Instead they displayed part of her face on a computer screen,then asked volunteers to measure her stare using a carpenter's ruler that was held horizontallybetween them and the screen.Although the computer screen and the participants stayed in the same spot, the ruler wasmoved closer and farther from the screen during the trial. In addition, the researchers modified thesize of Mona Lisa 's face and how much of her features were visible to see if that changed theperception of her stare. I he images showed varying degrees of rise一from 30 to70 percent withsome showing her entire face and others showing just her eyes and nose.The researchers also moved the images several centimeters to the left and to the right, so theParticipants wouldn’t just pick the same measurement on the ruler each time.Horstmann and Loth published their results in the journal i-perception where they were veryclear in their conclusion.“We conclude from the measurements that the; lack of evidences due tothe declaration being objectively false: Mona Lisa does not stare at the viewer ,” they bt about the existence of the Mona Lisa effect---it just does not occur withwrote.“There is no douMona Lisa herself.28.

It's consistent with previous studies.DWe have all been there. In a rush to leave the house we grab ou phone6 a head out of the door, realizing all too late that the battery is dead because we forgot 1oprog it into the table cloth. Orperhaps we have not. But this could be be future that scientists hope to explore with eletr6nicsheets that charge our Mobile phones, laptops and other equipment by harvesting energy from theworld around us.In a step in that direction, scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT)havecreated super- thin，bendy materials that absorb wireless Internet and other electromagnetic wavesin the air and turn them into electricity. The lead researcher, Tomas Palacios, said thebreakthrough smoothed the way for energy- harvesting covers ranging from table cloths to giantpacking for buildings that catch energy from the environment to power sensors and otherelectronics.Palacios and his colleagues connected a bendy antenna(天线)to a flexible semiconductor(半导体)layer only three atoms thick. The antenna picks up wifi and other radio frequency signalsand turns them into a current. This flows into a special semiconductor, where it is changed into adirect electrical current. Researchers have made energy-harvesting“rectennas ( rectifyingantenna )”before,but existing equipment is made from conventional semiconductors which are inflexible, fragile and practically impossible to make in large sheets.The wi-fi signals can fill an office with more than 100 microwatts of power that is ripe to becollected by energy-harvesting equipment. The MIT system has an efficiency (效率) of between30% and 40%，producing about 40 microwatts when exposed to signals bearing 150microwatts ofpower in laboratory tests.“It doesn't. sound like much compared with the 60watts that a computergn a wide range of sensors,needs, but you can still do a lot with it,” Palacios said. “ You can desifor environmental monitoring or chemical and biological sensing, which operate at the singlemicrowatt level.”Medical equipment is another potential application. Because wi-fi and similarradio-frequency signals pass through people, energy-harvesting covers could be applied toimplanted sensors to provide them with enough power to send out health data to an outsidereceiver.32. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. The phoneB. The door.C. The sheetD. The table.33. What is special about the new breakthrough?A. It can harvest wi-fi energy.B. It is super thin and flexible.C It can power all the electronicsD. It smooths the way of receiving signals34. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A The team will focus on improving efficiency of the new equipment.B. A single device can harvest half of the energy in an office.C. Palacios is pleased with the fie of the new。

2019年广东省深圳市高考二模英语试卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）21．The Metropolitan Museum of Art，more commonly known as"the Met"，located in New York City，is the largest art museum in the United States．Its impressive permanent collection is home to over two million works，divided among seventeen specialized departments．It is among the most visited art museums in the world．The main building is one of the world's largest art galleries．On March 18，2016，the museum opened the Met Breuer Museum，greatly enriching the museum's modern and up﹣to﹣date art program．The Mot's permanent collection consists of works of art from classical antiques to ancient Egyptian artifacts （史前古器物），paintings and sculptures from all but a few of the European masters．It also has an outstanding collection of American and modern art and proudly houses extensive holdings of African，Asian，Oceanic，Indian and Islamic art．Visitors can also find large collections of musical instruments and costumes，as well as antique weapons from around the globe．The Metropolitan Museum of Art was found in 1870．It is the result of a project between businessmen，financier and influential thinkers of the day．They all shared the same passion of bringing art and art education to the American people．That dream became a reality when the museum opened its doors on February 20.1872．21．what is special about the Met？A．Its name．B．Its collection．C．Its building．D．Its location．22．What do we know about the Met's collections？A．They are from European masters．B．They mainly come from Europe．C．They are about antique weapons．D．They cover arts of different times．23．Why was the Metropolitan Museum of Art built？A．To show the owners'pride in its large size．B．To invest and make more money in the future．C．To offer art education to the American people．D．To bring the worldwide artists'dream into reality．24．Despite the fact that the Queen is currently alive and well，a secret plan has already been laid out for her death．A code word has already been decided upon to deliver the news of her passing to the highest tiers of the government．While the death of George VI was signalled by the words "Hyde Park Corner"﹣﹣to stop operators at Buckingham Palace learning the news﹣the equivalent （相等的）word for Queen Elizabeth II is"London Bridge is down''．The Prime Minister at the time will be woken，if not already awake，and informed by civil servants that"London Bridge is down"．These words will signify the Queen has passed away，and Operation London Bridge﹣a highly ﹣organised set of arrangements﹣is to start．The Foreign Office's Global Response Centre，located at an undisclosed location in London，will then immediately inform 15 governments outside the UK where the Queen is also the head of state．After this，the centre will pass on the news to the 36 other nations of the Commonwealth （英联邦）for whom the Queen has served as a symbolic figurehead for many decades．It will not be long before the news spreads from world leaders to the general public，with the news of her passing to the Press Association and thus the global media as well．This marks a break from the long﹣held tradition of the BBC being the first news outlet to learn of royal deaths．What's more，while George VI's death was not announced until four hours after he died，news of the Queen's death will be far more instant．A footman in mourning clothes will be sent out of the door at Buckingham Palace at the same time to pin a notice of the news to the gates，while the official palace website will feature ﹣just one page，letting out the news on a dark background．24．What are the code words for the Queen's death？A．Hyde Park Comer．B．Buckingham Palace．C．London Bridge is down．D．Operation London Bridge．25．Why will 15 governments outside the UK be informed of the news

remember that feeling now．Being the first child in the family，I was the one my parents tested their new parenting techniques on．I was their guinea pig．Mark was always the happy one，the joker，the one who won because of my battles with my parents．After too many fights，I declared war on Mark．We were now enemies．All l remember is being jealous of （妒忌） and angry with my innocent little brother．Thus．I made his life a misery．I teased，tricked，embarrassed，and fought with him．often leaving him in floods of tears．Our little sister was born when I was 11．and instantly she and Mark could not be separated．They pushed me aside．Was this because I was becoming a monster，or did I grow into an uglier green ﹣eyed monster because they loved each other so much？Thankfully，Mark quickly grew tall and strong，and our conflict looked more like a cold war than bloodshed （流血）．It all ended suddenly when I went to study abroad．The hatred （仇恨） disappeared and love climbed in．Despite all the abuse Mark suffered he has implied that he has forgiven me，or even that there is nothing to forgive，although I have never brought up the subject in too much detail．I would like to； however，it would be a selfish move to look for more forgiveness．But I prefer to remember the hurt．During all those wasted years，I should have been the loving sister，defending instead of attacking．28．How did the writer feel at the birth of her brother？A．Worried．B．Excited．C．Surprised．D．disappointed．29．Why did the writer consider her brother as her enemy？A．She didn't like her brother．B．She'd like to be a monster．C．She used to be

introduction of many fancy products in the world of VR，including Microsoft's HoloLens and Samsung's Gear VR．All of them offer an exciting look at the new realities"and opportunities that VR brings．These，however，are the early days of a technology that is expected to go from strength to strength．And 2019looks like it is going to be the year in which VR technology really takes off．For a start，using VR will become more normal in 2019．Microsoft and Intel have already discussed their plans for simpler and less expensive VR headsets．The idea of VR will stop being a sci﹣fi （science﹣fiction） idea，and instead it will turn into an industry of real products used as ways to show off imagination．"said Andrew，a designer at US VR Company，Survios．It is also expected that VR products will play a part in more common and real﹣life fieldslike fashion and film．For example，to enjoy the atmosphere and energy of the front row experience at a fashion show，fans will no longer have to go along in the flesh．Instead people will be able to enjoy the experience by just wearing a VR headset at home．You can also expect VR mirrors and fitting﹣rooms sooner rather than later．''This is an

Mr. Selfridge, the Wisconsin-born retailer (零售商) who left school at 14, rose to become a partner in Marshall Field's. Chicago. Founded in 1852, it was one of the first and most ambitious US department scores. Mr. Selfridge had done well with Marshall Field's. He liked to say, “The custome r is always right,” which made the Chicago store popular. And he is believed to have invented the phrase “Only [so many] Shopping Days until Christmas”.When he visited London on holiday in 1906 he wassurprised to find most of the city's department stores were no match of their American and Parisian competitors. Thisled Selfridge to leave the US and establish Selfridges. a department store named after him. at the west end ofLondon's Oxford Street. In Oxford Street, Selfridge's design team shaped an ambitious classical palacc building with awall of plate glass windows.Opened in 1909, Selfridges offered customers a hundred departments along with restaurants, a roof garden, reading and writing rooms, reception areas for foreign visitors, a first aid room and. most importantly, a small army ofknowledgeable floor-walking assistants who served as guides as well as being thoroughly instructed in the art of making a sale.Mr. Selfridge did much to make the department store a destination rather thanjust a big and comprehensively stocked city shop.

Assistants who overcook food by ten seconds usually struggle to get out of the kitchen alive. My father was a top chef. We’d had a stormy relationship for years, but I decided to follow in his footsteps anyway, and train as a chef. It was better than the dead-end I ‘d reach with the job I’d been doing.After three years, I became head chef in a restaurant called The Tortoise. As the boss, I made important decision but if anything went wrong, I was the one who shouldtake the responsibility. Experiencing the sweaty kitchens, I learned why my father was the way he was. When I began, I didn’t have my sights set on anything much ---I just wanted a regular job—but soon I realized my career was taking off. The rich and famous started to visit the restaurant and eventually came the time when I had todecide about my future: I could either open my own restaurant or go and work for one of the big ones. Then life made the decision for me. My father tried and I got his job.On my first day, I received an unfriendly welcome. No one would talk to me. What made it worse was that I was ill—I had a cold , and my hands wereshaking as I went into the kitchen. I held my breath, stood up in front of everyone and said, My name is Leah Kleist.

That's what scientists might have thought when they were looking for a safe place to store ice from mountain glaciers from around the world. They’ve decided to store ice in Antarctica because global warming is causing some of the glaciers in placeslike the Alps to melt.Jerome Chappellaz of the French National Centre forScientific Research is involved in creating an ice vault (地下室）there. He says: “We are probably the only scientific community whose sample (样本) is in danger of disappearing from the face of the planet. If you work on rocks oron tree rings, the raw material is still here and willbe for many centuries."And why do scientists need to study ice from the Alps,for example? Ice formed on the top of a mountain is made of snow accumulated over thousands of years. Trapped air bubbles (气泡) contain samples of the atmosphere that existed when that ice was formed. Ice is a record of climate By examining ice. we know carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is higher now than in the last three million years. Researchers use this kind of data to build computer models and tryto predict what might happen in the future.The ice vault will be housed in a snow cave at the Concordia Research Station, which is operated by scientists from France and Italy. The ice samples will be sealed in bags and placed 10 meters below the surface. at a constant temperature of -50*C. This will put the scientists’ minds at rest. Losing the ice samples would be a disaster, and nobody wants to see a mine of scientific knowledge lost forever in a giant pool.1.What makes Antarctica a safe place to store ice?A. Its large mountains.B. Its function as a freezer.C. The abundant ice samples there.D. The absence of global warming.2.Jerome compares ice with rocks and tree rings to state that____________ .A. it's necessary to store iceB. it’s more valuable to study iceC. ice disappears very quicklyD. ice should be stored at home3.What is the researchers' purpose of studying ice?A. To learn about climate.B. To learn about the Alps.C. To trap air bubbles.D. To reduce carbon dioxide.4.What do scientists think of storing ice in Antarctica?A. They consider it an easy job.B. The y’re not optimistic about it.C. They think it will cause disasters.D. They think it’s a reliable way.二、填空题5. 七选五Some people just know how to start a conversation with anyone, in any place.

She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three- and four-year-olds spend the next hour dancing to "La Vaca Lola" , a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger puppets （木偶）to voice what they like and don't like （me gusta, no me gusta） and shouting out which animals are big （grande） or small （pequeño）.She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks, nothing at all, 1 begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake （each lesson works out at about £9） but then I show her "La Vaca Lola" on YouTube.

In my day job, I read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as to when.Then I read Edward Luce's The Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to learn another language. Ideally （理想地）, immediately.I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most important for our future, according to the British Council （others include Arabic, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese）.

According to Conrad King, the researcher who carried out the review, "more than any other senses, the sense of smell goes through the logical part of the brain and acts on the systems concerned with feelings. This is why the smell of baking bread can destroy the best intentions of a dieter."Smell, which dictates（决定） the unbelievable complexity of food tastes, has always been the least understood of our senses. Our noses are able to detect up to 10, 000 distinct smells. Our ability to smell and taste this extremely large range of smells is controlled by something like 1, 000 genes （基因）, which make up an amazing 3% of the human genome. Researchers Richard Axel and Linda Buck were together awarded a Nobel Prize in 2004 for their ground-breaking research on the nature of this extraordinary sense. These two scientists were the first to describe the family of 1, 000 olfactory （嗅觉）genes and to explain how our olfactory system works.According to one study in the research review, smelling fresh pizza or even the packaging of fast foods can be enough to make drivers feel impatient with other road users. They are then more likely to speed and experience uncontrollable anger on roads. The most reasonable explanation is that these can all make drivers feel hungry, and therefore desperate to satisfy their appetites.In contrast, the smells of peppermint and cinnamon were shown to improve concentration levels as well as reduce drivers' impatience. Similarly, the smells of lemon and coffee appeared to promote clear thinking and mental focus.However, the way genes regulate smell differs from person to person. A study by researchers in Israel has identified at least 50 olfactory genes which are switched on in some people and not in others. They believe this may explain why some of us love some smells and tastes while others hate them. The Israel researchers say their study shows that nearly every human being shows a different pattern of active and inactive smell-detecting receptors.(1) What did Richard Axel and Linda Buck find out?A.

It has lain there for more than a century, its rest only occasionally disturbed when the room's three key holders perform a coordinated opening ceremony to let technicians enter and clean this precious piece of metal.First, the cylinder is rubbed with a piece of soft, alcohol-soaked cloth. Then it is steamed with pure water. Finally, the 1kg cylinder is returned, carefully, to its resting place.Such attention to a lump of metal is unusual, but has a purpose. The castle houses the International Bureau of Weights and Measures and that piece of shining, circular metal is its holiest relic. It is the defining mass （质量） against which all other kilograms are measured. This is the international prototype, or standard, of the kilogram. The IPK, in short.Dozens of carefully weighted copies of the original have been made. They are stored around the world and used to standardise individual nations' weights and measures systems.But the days of the IPK, in its current form, are numbered. The International Bureau of Weights and Measures has decided to replace this single physical specimen with a more fundamental measurement –based on electric current – in order to define the mass of an object. The king of kilograms is about tobe dethroned."One key reason for doing this work is to provide international security, " says Bureau spokesman Paul Robinson. "If the castle burned down tomorrow and the kilogram was destroyed, we would have no reference left for the world's metric weights system. There would be chaos. The current definition of the kilogram is the weight of that cylinder in Paris, after all."Another major motivation for the replacement of the IPK is the growing need to be able to carry out more and more precise measurements. "Drug companies will soon be wanting to use ingredients that will have to be measured in terms of a few millionths or even billionths of a gram, " says Robinson. "We need to be prepared to weigh substances with that kind of accuracy."(1) What do we know about the IPK from the first two paragraphs?A. It's cared for with great devotion.B. It's used in religious ceremonies.C. It's beautifully designed and decorated.D. It's the most valuable metal in the world.(2) Which of the following best explains "dethroned" underlined in paragraph 5?A. rebuiltB. destroyedC. removedD. upgraded(3) What is a reason for replacing the current IPK?A. To protect the metal cylinder from damage.B. To make taking measurements more economical.C. To provide all countries with the same standard.D. To satisfy the increasing demand for exactness.(4) What can be a suitable title for the text?A. No more kilosB. A heavy technologyC. The future of the kiloD.
