高考英语《七选五+完形填空+应用文写作》真题练习含答案Ⅰ.七选五Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. __1__ Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today's world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they're special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it's easy to feel like you're missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. __2__●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on overtouristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it's actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of lessvisited options to choose from. __3__ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination's lesserknown sights?●__4__ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You'll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege (荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. __5__ You may be amazed how much closer you'll feel to the people there.A.Visit during offpeak times.B.So, should we stop traveling?C.Travel for you and no one else.D.Can overtourism be avoided then?E.You can still find relatively undiscovered places.F.You'll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.G.Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与社会——旅游——如何缓解过度旅游【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了缓解过度旅游的一些具体的方法:谨慎选择、有创造性、避开高峰期等。

Stay loose and free.2 Don't worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won't work for everyone, it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. 3 Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄皱) paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle — as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway.The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision. 4 As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. 5 The resulting blank space invites you to revise.A. Make sure your handwriting is neat.B. Let your pen follow the waves of thought.C. The second draft of the essay should be better.D. First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing.E. Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.F. Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.G.

What's the weather like? Whatdoes the air smell like? What are you doing while you're there? How does being there make you feel? You'll instantly feel calmer, lost in the daydream or the memory of your happy place.We can make our situations worse by keeping thinking about negative thoughts. 3 " Bad things always happen to me, " becomes "What lesson can I learn from this situation?" "I wasted the whole day," becomes "I still have 5 more hours left to make today a great day!"Whether it is going for a coffee at your favorite cafe, or catching a movie in the theatre, make sure that once a week you schedule some "me" time. 4 That may mean getting less done during the day, but you deserve to take a mental break, regularly. So give priority to the time you need to recharge.5 Whether it's a rare bit of easy traffic on your way to work or a break in the weather, you won't have time to complain about the negative things because you're so busy being grateful.A.

I had always described it as a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but as soon as I stepped foot on the continent, I immediately knew I needed to return.1 About 50% of the passengers of our expedition (远征) had been to Antarctica at least once before. This goes to show just how magical of a destination it is.That all your senses will be stimulated is the best way I can describe the time on the white continent. How tiny you feel next to towering glaciers and icebergs! The icy water moving through your body as you take the infamous Polar Plunge. The learning of heart-touching stories of survival from explorers of the past. 2Antarctica makes you feel so small and insignificant, in the best way. 3 You get front row seats to witness the most incredible show: nature. It is as much beautiful as cruel. For example, when you see a brown skua (贼鸥) attacking a penguin chick, your heart aches. Then your expedition guide regretfully tells you that a chick that is small in March wouldhave very slim chances of surviving the upcoming winter. The cycle continues, and you're left wondering who to root for.Things move fast in Antarctica, and every month offers something really unique and special to see. In March, the weather is a bit more unpredictable, and the sea ice is beginning to form again. 4 In two more weeks, expedition ships would not be able to break through the ice.The penguins are completing their yearly feather-changing process. 5 The expedition team made sure we kept our distance and did not scare them into hiding under freezing water.These animals, arguably the cutest you will ever see, survive such unfavorable environments. It's absolutely incredible to witness the challenges, the skill, the efforts, all of it. I am forever grateful to have been a visitor.A. The list goes on.B. But this is not always the case.C. Our voyage was the last of the season.D. I was not the only one who felt this way.E. I, years later, did return to this fascinating place.F. They are really weak during this time, and cannot dive.G. Everything has a purpose, and the cycle of life is evident.Passage4语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--健康的生活方式词数:约215routine. 1 Here are several ways for you to keep moving in hot weather and some tips for safely keeping active in the summer heat.2 Drink 16 to 24 ounces of water, sports drinks, or other liquids around twenty minutes before you begin. Try to avoid drinks that contain caffeine, a chemical substance, because that will cause you to lose water.Choose a proper time in the day to exercise. Avoid the hottest time of the day — between 11 am and 3 pm. 3 Also take care to watch the weather and avoid exercising when humidity (湿度) is high.Dress for the heat. Make sure you wear light breathable clothing before working out in the heat. Some materials like nylon easily absorb sweat and evaporate it much better than cotton. 4 If you become very hot, pour cold water into your hat to help you feel cooler.5 Remember to use a sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 30 or higher and apply it every two hours or after you work up a sweat. Avoid getting sunburned because it decreases your body's ability to cool itself down and also increases the risk of skin cancer.A. Wear proper sunscreen.B. Take food and water with you.C.

This reminded me of my seventh grade musical — "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky, the female lead who was Tom's girlfriend. 1For starters, Becky had to sing numerous solos, and I couldn't carry a tune. I also didn't have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson, the maid. I had to wear an ugly dress. And I had only one line to learn, " That's what I say. " 2 Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes, and got to repeat. "That's what I say" throughout the play.At last, our production was put onstage. Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped up with "That's what I say". I hadn't known that she — or I — could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. 3That night, I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a standout in a supporting role. Each person, onstage and backstage, is essential in theater. Without everyone doing their part, the play would be dull as dishwater. 4 If everyone is a star then nothing gets done. It's all noise and chaos.And so I believe all children should get the opportunity to play Miss Watson, to become someone they didn't know they wanted to be. 5A. So it is in life.B. It was not to be.C. It was anything but a great part.D. My Miss Watson turned out to be a hit.E. It took the entire cast to make a good show.F. There was an advantage, in my opinion, though.G. I would hope all children could be a hit in life.创新练-高分必抢限时:20 分钟Passage7语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--做人和做事词数:约255 It was time for Macy to move. She booked a few house viewings and after looking at three places, she fell in love with one house. But that night a feeling of doubt and uncertainty entered her head. 1 Will the others be cheaper?We've all found ourselves in such situations, whether we're considering job offers or buying a new car. It's a problem that involves mathematics and psychology. And it's got a name: the optimal (最优的) stopping problem. 2 It's askinghow long we spend sampling options to give the optimal chances of a successful final decision.Mathematicians have given us an answer: 37%. The basic idea is that, if we need to make a decision from 100 different options, we should sample and give up the first 37. 3 It's a period during which we identify what works and what does not. From the rejected 37%, we choose the best and keep that information in our heads moving forward.Mathematics offers us the best answer to the " optimal stopping problem". But there's just one big issue: Humans are not rational(基于理性的)probability-calculating machines. In fact, the opposite is usually true. 4 In the psychological and economics field, there is an " explore/ exploit trade-off (探索/利用权衡)".This asks whether we should go with a guaranteed "win " ( exploit) or risk going somewhere else for an unknown outcome (explore). The degree to which someone will explore or exploit depends on various factors. 5 Of course, different people are more exploitative or exploitative at different times. Teenagers and traders tend to explore more. Adults and managers exploit more.A. What if the next house is better?B. How much does it cost a month?C. The 37% rule is not some mindless, automatic thing.D. And it ties in with how curious or risk-seeking we are.E. It's then necessary for us to improve our computing power.F. So it falls on psychology to tell us about how we actually behave.G. The mathematical question for Macy concerns maximizing probabilities.Passage8语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--日常生活词数:约300 If you’ve ever been bitten by a mosquito, you know how frustrating their bites can be. 1 , creating an itch that once you start scratching only seems to get worse. Why does a mosquito bite itch and what can we do?Why does a mosquito bite itch?When a mosquito bites you, it pierces the skin using a special mouthpart to suck up blood and injects saliva(唾液) into your skin. Mosquitoes’ saliva has lots of proteins in it, some of which our body recognizes as foreign things, and our immune cells spring into action to try to fight them. 2 It's actually the body's response to the foreign mosquito proteins it is trying to fight. That's why some people may only have a mild reaction to bites, while others, more sensitive to the foreign proteins, react with large areas of swelling that are more painful.What helps resist the urge to scratch?"Don't scratch" is the advice that most experts and health professionals give. As hard and sometimes unrealistic as it can sound, scratching inflames(使更棘手)the skin, and the inflammation makes the skin itch more. 3 ,”warned DanielMarkowski, technical adviser for the American Mosquito Control Association, adding that in extreme cases, people can scar themselves.Instead, there are dozens of creams and sprays that promise itch relief as well as home remedies (疗法). Choosing what's right for you can often come down to trial and error. In general, all of the various anti-itch creams are very similar. There is no scientific evidence that these remedies work, and they can come with their own precautions or side effects. 4 5Some people can have serious allergic reactions to mosquitoes, although in practice it is rare, V osshall said.

If you choose a desert cactus (仙人掌) as your starter plant, that's fine. 2 That you see a particular species everywhere doesn't mean it's an easy plant to grow. It may be everywhere because it's easy to reproduce in a greenhouse, not at home. Some houseplants that are easy to care for include sweet flag, bamboo, spider plants, etc.3 With too little light, plants will produce small-sized leaves and become leggy. And too much light can result in plants with burn marks and dry leaves. Therefore, you should know what plants need what light and ensure them the right light.Plants also need water to grow.

Remember, this is only one opportunity, and there will be more.3Once you've spent some time reviewing the interview, ask yourself if there is anything you can learn from your mistakes.

Actually, not simple at all, 2 It will always be more challenging to use. It will likely take more time to use for each function.Worse still, the touch screen mayalso put you at greater risk of being in an accident.In a car with buttons and other physical controls, you can often perform the same tasks without looking. 3 And you most likely receive physical feedback (反馈) through your fingers letting you know you've succeeded. Buttons are probably faster than touch screens. With a button, you reach over and easily get your fingers on it.4 They may be effective, but many also require multiple attempts to work. If you've ever asked your phone to do something, you know there are still challenges in speech recognition.However, if you need to use the touch screen to control systems in your car, I have a few suggestions.Get your basic setup running before your car is running down the road. If you have a passenger, let that person control the touch screen. 5A. But this also means extra steps for each action.B. The touch screen is far more complex than buttons.C.
