2018辽宁高考英语模拟试题(含答案)ALearners of English, especially self-taught learners may have trouble in understanding speeches by native speakers. The following ways might help improve their listening ability.First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Go on to the second book only after you are sure you understand the first one.Secondly, stick to one course of study. Don’t change books often. Never le t your attention be attracted by another course just because it seems to be more “fashionable”.Thirdly, listen to the English news program over the radio from time to time. Better go through the news stories in the Chinese-language newspaper first. That will make it easy for you to understand the English news on the radio.Fourthly, if you have time, listen to some interesting stories in some special English programs, such as V.O.A. or other listening materials of the same level as that of your textbook.1. This is a piece of advice to learners of English on how to ______________.A. read fastB. improve their listening abilityC. write better English and read fasterD. speak correctly2. If you want to understand the English news program on the radio, you should________.A. read the Chinese language newspaper step by stepB. read again and again the Chinese language newspaperC. be able to recite the Chinese language newspaperD. go through the Chinese language newspaper first3. The author advised that once you have taken up a course, you _______.A. should begin with the last bookB. should stick to it.C. should take up other courses if they are more fashionableD. shouldn’t do anything else4. In this passage, V.O.A. stands for______________.A. a bookB. a magazineC. a radio stationD. a text-bookBAbout ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green -a strange world Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attractinsects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.5. The passage is mainly about _____________.A. women being luckier than menB. color and its surprising effectsC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness6.

But sometimes it is important to wear the right things.Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.But in Britain, as well as the US, men in office usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women tidy dresses.In any ways, Americans are less formal than Britain people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and follow suit. You’ll feel more comfortable if you don’t look too different from othe rs.12. People in Britain and the US wear informal clothes when they___A. are in officesB. go out to enjoy themselvesC. are in big restaurantsD. go out to work13.

Some people say that parents are purposely taking in their kids by lying to them about Santa. Is it purposely cheating or playing along with the fantasy? There are always those stories about the kindergarten teacher or parent who would tell the kids there’ s no Santa Claus, and they on the lost dreams. But if another teacher goes into a third-grade class and says there is a Santa Claus, they ’ ll all laugh at her.What I say is that if they’ re at the age when they’whyrestillboth e lieving,rto end it?Then how long should parents pretend?

The speed at which it is moving relative to the sun means that it cannot be native to the solar system. Its official name is thus II/2017 UI, with the“ I” standing星for际)”“—theinterfirsttellar(time this name has ever been used.That is exciting. Some scientists, though, entertain an ever more exciting possibility: what if Oumuamua is not an asteroid(小行星 ),as most think, but an alien(外星的 )spacecraft? Asteroid come in ll sorts of shapes and sizes, but Oumuamua seems particularly different. As best as astronomers can tell, it is cigarlike, being roughly 180 meters long but only about 30 meters wide. That makes it longer than anything known of in the solar system. Such a shape would be a sensible choice for a spaceship, sinceit would minimize the scouring(冲洗 )effect of interstellar dust.With that in mind the Breakthrough Listen project, an organization aimed at hunting for alien life, plans to turn the world ’biggest radio telescope, the Green Bank instrument in Virginia, towards Oumuamua to see if it can hear anything interesting. Oumuamua is currently about twice as far from Earth as Earth is from the sun. At that range, the telescope should be sensitive enough to pick up a transmitter about as powerful as a mobile phone after just a few seconds—worth of observations.Will it find anything? Almost certainly not. Oumuamua has the same reddish color as many as asteroids, so probably has a similar composition. And, if it really is a spaceship, it is strange that signsof its artificial origin have not been seen already. It could, in theory, be a derelict(遗弃星球 ). But in that case the telescope is unlikely to hear anything. By far the most likely option is that it is exactly what it seems to be: a huge space rock, one that has come to the solar system from the vast space betweenthe stars. 32. What makes some scientists think Oumuamua is possibly an alien spacecraft?A. Its size.B. Its color.C. Its shape.D. Its speed.33.What does the underlined word“ thatin”the third paragraph probably mean?A.The research into the solar system.B.The purpose of hunting for alien life.C.The effect of interstellar dust on Oumuamua.D.The possibility of Oumuamua being a spaceship. 34.What is Oumuamua most likely to be according to the author?A. An asteroid.B. A space rock.C. Interstellar dust.D35.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that__________.A. Oumuamua will return to where it’ s from soonB.

However, Britain is quite an expensive place to study and live in. Tuition fees have now reached £ 9, 250 a year and students also face some of the highest living costs in the world.Fortunately, there are a number of countries where universities offer degree programs entirely in English, along with the chance to learn the local language while you live there. Here are three of the options broken down in detail.University of AmsterdamThe Dutch capital is not a cheap city to live in, but standard tuition fees of £ 1, 800 a year make it significantly cheaper than a British degree.There are 14 bachelor’s degrees onoffer that are taught in English, including Political Science, Economics & Business Economics and Actuarial Science. Nearly all Dutch people speak English, making it an easy country to get by in.Tianjin UniversityMoving to China is not for the faint hearted. Undergraduate degree courses at Tianjinlast four years. Living costs are only around £ 400 a month and tuition fees are £ 2, 300 a year. Flights will cost £ 3, 600 over the four years. The total cost, at £ 28, 800, is still around half that of a three﹣year degree in Britain. Tianjin i s one of the world’s latest cities and is only a half﹣hour train ride from Beijing. Three undergraduate programs are offered in English: Chemical Engineering, Environment & Energy and Pharmaceutical Science. University of MilanThe University of Milan’s fees range from £ 140 to £3, 650 a year.The one bachelor’s degree offered entirely in English﹣Political Science﹣is a three﹣year course. While living costs in Milan are high, the significantly lower fees make it a cheaper option than a British university.(1) Where can you major in Political Science?________A.Amsterdam and London.B.London and Tianjin.C.Amsterdam and Milan.D.Tianjin and Milan.(2) What is probably the total cost of a three﹣year degree in Britain?________A.£ 27,750.B.£ 14,400.C.£ 28,800.D.£ 57,600.(3) What is the purpose of the text?________A.To introduce some affordable universities.B.To encourage people to study abroad.C.To advertise some degree programs.D.To compare tuition fees and living costs.【答案】此题暂无答案【考点】完常综陆阅读射面综合【解析】此题暂无解析【解答】此题暂无解答2. Times are a little tough at our house right now. Neither of us makes a lot ofmoney, but years of experience have taught us how to walk between the raindrops and make it from one month to the next with a fair amount of grace. I cook a lot athome, more when we’re facing lean times. When I know that I have to keep us fed on not much money, I fall back on my grandmother’s recipes. She taught me to cook.When I was a kid, my twin brother and I spent long summer weeks and Christmas vacations with my mother’s parents in the mountains of North Carolina. Rather than go hunting with my grandfather on frozen mornings, I found myself more and more in the kitchen with my grandmother, watching her making a lemon cheese pie with her soft hands. My great﹣grandmother died when my grandmother was 11 years old. As the eldest daughter, she was expected to take on all of the housework while attendingschool. Throughout the Great Depression, she learned how to make a little food go a long way. Vegetables were cheap, so she cooked a lot of them, mostly only using small amounts of meat for seasoning. Roast beef was a twice﹣a﹣month luxury, but there was nothing she couldn’t do with a chicken, every part of it. Nothing went to waste.Now I understand that her food was ________. I feel connected to my grandmother andto hundreds of years of family when I’m in my kitchen making country food. In the delicious smells is a long tale of victory over hard times, of conquering starvation﹣of notjust surviving, but finding joy and pleasure in every meal of every day.From grandmother I learned to take real satisfaction in feeding people, My grandmother would beam with pleasure over a heavily laden table and say, “Do you know what thiswould cost at the restaurant? ” I never knew what restaurant in particular she had inmind, but I knew that the question was totally not fair, because no restaurant anywhere can cook like a grandmother. But now, thanks to her guidance and years of practice, I can.(1) According to the passage, the author cooks a lot at home because________.A.she and her husband are quite particular about food.B.she wants to try out her grandmother’s recipes.C.she enjoys cooking at home.D.she and her husband are embarrassed financially.(2) According to the passage,the author’s grandmother________.A.preferred chicken to beef.B.learned to cook throughout the Great Depression.C.was careful in budgeting.D.was careful in cooking vegetables.(3)What does the underlined word “sacred” mean in paragraph 4?________A.tasty.B.frightening.C.delightful.D.holy.(4) Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?________A.My Grandmother’s Sacred Food.B.Cook like My Grandmother.C.My Grandmother’s Recipe.D.Joy and Pleasure in Cooking.【答案】此题暂无答案【考点】阅读射面综合完常综陆【解析】此题暂无解析【解答】此题暂无解答3. Do cell phones cause cancer? No one knows for sure. Mobile phones have only been widely used for around 20 years, with the very first ones introduced just over 30 years ago.It’s too soon to tell just how harmful cell phones are.In February 2011, a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association recorded changes in brain glucose metabolism (葡萄糖代谢) during cell phone use. The study became the first to prove that cell phone use changes brain activity by monitoring 47 healthy volunteers seated and on the phone for 50 minutes.The volunteers’ brains were monitored by special scanners to measure glucose metabolism.Then in May 2011, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) added radiation from cell phones to its list of substances that possibly cause cancer in humans.The IARC’S research found that most cell phone use did not lead to more risk of glioma, a dangerous type of brain cancer, or meningioma, a more common, but typically not harmful cancer. However, the study did find enough evidence that using cell phones for long periods of time on the same side of the head could mean an increased risk of glioma.In a contrasting report released in July 2011, a British Institute of Cancer Research study found little evidence of cancer risk in 10 to 15 years of use. The study showed that there have been no increases in brain tumors (肿瘤) in several countries over the last 30years since cell phones were introduced or even in the last 20 years since their use became more widespread.With no long﹣term research available yet, limiting exposure to cell phone radiation by texting more and talking less is recommended. Stay off the phone when you have a weak signal, as ________ will need more radiation to contact the tower. Phone use for children should also be limited because their brains absorb twice as much cell phone radiation.(1)We can’t be sure whether cell phones cause cancer because________.A.if s difficult to track the bad effects of cell phone radiation.B.there has been little research on the problem up to now.C.different studies has been arguing fiercely about this problem.D.there has been little evidence of it given the short history of cell phones.(2) What did the IARC find from their research?________ing cell phone for long periods of time could increase the risk of cancer.B.Radiation from the cell phone is certain to cause some brain cancers.C.Cell phone use is more likely to cause a common cancer than a dangerous one.D.Staying away from cell phones with weak signal can reduce the risk of cancer.(3) What is recommended to reduce the harm from cell phone use?________ing cell phones when the signal is weak.B.Staying far away from the signal tower.C.Limiting children’s exposure to cell phones.D.Talking more and texting less via cell phones.(4)What does “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?________A.The phone user.B.A cell phone.C.The phone radiation.D.The cell phone signal.【答案】此题暂无答案【考点】阅读射面综合【解析】此题暂无解析【解答】此题暂无解答4.NASA might be famous for sending rockets up to space quickly. But it will be more famous for making your next holiday come more quickly.The space agency is working on a new plane, which could solve the problems of supersonic (超音速的)flight and vastly increase the speed of journeys abroad. If successful, the plane would be able to fly between New York and London in just three hours. And it would reduce the time spent flying other journeys by a half, since it could be used more broadly. Until now, the problem with such planes has been the sonic boom(声爆), made famous by the original Concorde. That happens when a plane reaches supersonic speeds. It is a thunderous noise that upsets people on the ground—disturbing animals and even causing physical problems to materials and houses underneath. It was that effect that led Congress to ban such planes from being used over the US land, a decision that in turn was responsible for Concorde’s failing to be commercially used.In view of the problem, the space agency has developed a new technology and tried it out in wind tunnels, and now believes that it could be put to commercial use. That plane will fly as high as 55, 000 feet—far higher than normal planes—and make a sound of only 60 decibels. That’s far less than 90 decibels thrown out by normal planes, and is roughly in line with a car on the motorway or a busy restaurant."As long as we can get endorsement from the general public, the plane will probably be something that’s acceptable," said Peter Coen, project manager for NASA’s commercial supersonic research team, in a new Bloomberg report. “If we get approved, we will have thefull-sized version of the plane tried out and the plane will be put into use.”(1)Why does the author mention Concorde?A.To stress the negative effect of sonic booms.B.To suggest the rapid development of planes.C.To introduce how a commercial plane is designed.D.To show Congress’ important role in making planes.(2)What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A.The working principle of the new plane.B.The basic data of the new plane.C.The problems of the new plane.D.The potential market of the new plane.(3)What does the underlined word “endorsement” in paragraph 5 mean?mitment.B.Response.C.Investment.D.Agreement.(4)What is the purpose of the passage?A.To prove the disadvantages of supersonic flight.B.To inform people of NASA’s new plane.C.To explain why speed matters in supersonic flight.D.To clarify some misunderstandings about commercial planes.【答案】此题暂无答案【考点】目明意护段表大综说使文以读词较脱测科正知阅读【解析】此题暂无解析【解答】此题暂无解答第二节(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.Things I Wish I’d Known in High SchoolSometimes high school seems like a necessary evil.

The experience will definitely prepare you for future academic challenges.Don’t worry about your grades too much. Getting a B is not the end of the world.(2)_______ I started college with all A’s since seventh grade, and it was hard to deal with not being able to repeat that. I stayed away from taking some harder courses I might have done well in because I was afraid of doing poorly. Now, I can fully accept that if I try my best in at least one harder class and get a B+, that is still something to be proud of.Find your own de﹣stressing routine. Another essential skill to begin building in high school is how to manage work and stress. Maybe you deal with stress by going for a run,or watching a silly movie. Talk with a friend for a while or play with your dog.(3)_______Spend your summers wisely.Don’t take on a full﹣time job the first summer you decide to work.(4)_______Do find something to do that will make the ten weeks worthwhile.

His trained, sensitive hands are acutely aware of every step of the process. Since beginning his craft in 1986, Lenwood has woven about 145, 000 perfect hammocks.Lenwood lost his sight in 1973, at age 18, during a hunting accident. “My whole working career has been blind,” he says. He first found a job as a woodworker, but when that organization closed, the North Carolina Division of Services for the Blind connected him with Hatteras Hammocks. On his first day of wo rk. “I did a total of one hammock,” Lenwood recalls, laughing. “And then I came home and lay down to sleep. I lift weights, but I wasn’t as tough as I thought until I started weaving.lt takes a lot of energy, and you’re standing up all day.”In time, however, Lenwood found he had a knack (窍门) for the job. At first he worked on-site at the company, but after a year Lenwood moved his operation to the home workshop where he had worked for 10 years during his woodworking days.There, he creates dozens of hammocks each week from ropes in a variety of sizes. One day, he realized the step counter on his phone recorded him walking eight miles without ever leaving his shop.The process of weaving a hammock involves making and catching hundreds of loops (环). A single missed stitch (织针) creates a hole that can widen and make the hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use. Experienced weavers miss loops sometimes, but to his company’s knowledge, Lenwood has never turned in a hammock with even one dropped stitch. Lenw ood’s skilled fingers are quick to catch and fix any mistakes.The company has acquired other brands and changed its name to The Hammock Source. Today, it is the world’s largest maker and seller of hammocks, all built by hand.However, Lenwood’s routine ha s changed little. He works his fingers back and forth across the rows, looping the rope and pulling it. With every hammock, Lenwood presents himself a perfect product. “I’m not sure how sighted people do it,” he admits.24. Lenwood stopped doing his first job because .A. it was for people with good eyesight onlyB. the company failed to go on with its businessC. the company didn’t produce hammocksD. he was not skilled at doing woodwork25. It can be learned from the passage that Lenwood .A. has been blind all through his lifeB. used to work as a hunter to support his familyC. was born in the 1950s with good eyesightD. has worked as a hammock weaver for 10 years26. What can we learn about Lenwood from the 4th paragraph?A. He moved very often while he was working on a hammock.B. He had to make different ropes before he wove a hammock.C. He had to stay 8 miles away from the worksite to complete it.D. He needed ropes of about 8 miles long to complete a hammock.27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. the success of the Hammock Source CompanyB. a blind craftsman who makes perfect hammocksC. how to weave perfect hammocks by handD. how to become a successful craftsmanCMichelin inspectors, the super secret spies of the restaurant industry, are the anonymous (匿名的) keepers of the famous Michelin star rating. They’ve been writing anonymous reports of restaurants for over 100 years.“We say it’s a little like the CIA,” said inspector “M” with a laugh. She asked that her identity not be revealed. “My whole life is staying under the radar, staying away from cameras, using fake names, trying to steal in and out of restaurants quietly.”Along with their boss, Jean Luc Naret, the director of the Michelin Guide, about 90 inspectors around the world decide which restaurants will win the cooking equivalent (等价物) of an Oscar, the Nobel Prize and Megamillions jackpot (百万彩票) all at once. The Michelin Guide covers 23 countries, and out of the 45,000 rated restaurants, less than 100 have the top rating — only nine American restaurants carry threestars.If the name “Michelin” brings the tires on your car to mind, you’re not too far off. The Michelin rating began in France in 1900 as a marketing trick. The Michelin brothers thought their customers would bum more rubber if given a list of hotels and restaurants to explore.Inspector “M” admitted being an inspector leads to a lonely dining life. “Most of the time we dine alone,” she said. “It gives us the ability to really focus on the food and the atmosp here and capture the entire experience.” To cover their tracks, “M” said sometimes two inspectors will dine together and write two separate papers. It’s better than saying “table for one”, right?“When you’re really, really into food and very crazy about food, everything else that’s going on around you isn’t so important,” she said.28. The underlined words “under the radar” in Paragraph 2 mean .A. living in dangerB. being the focus of the mediaC. trying to be unnoticedD. making programs on the radio29. The Michelin rating was first carried out in order to .A. open more hotels and restaurantsB. bring more convenience to driversC. make people familiar with “Michelin”D. make a profit by selling more tires of a certain brand30. Sometimes two inspectors dine together so that they can .A. cut the expense on the foodB. protect their identitiesC. save trouble by sharing a paperD. talk about the food over the meal31. What would be the best title for the text?A. M’s experience as a CIAB. The legend of Michelin brothersC. Michelin inspectors: food industry spiesD. Michelin — a giant in tire and restaurant industryDDrive through any suburb in the U.S. Today, and it’s hard to miss the recycling bins that have becomecompanions to America’s trash cans. Recycling has become common, as people recognize the need to care for the environment. Yet most people’s recycling consciousness extends only as far as paper, bottles, and cans. People seldom find themselves facing the growing problem of e-waste.E-waste rapidly increases as the techno- fashionable frequently upgrade to the most advanced devices, and the majority of them end up in landfills (垃圾填埋地). Some people who track such waste say that users throw away nearly 2 million tons of TVs, VCRs, computers, cell phones, and other electronics every year. Unless we can find a safe replacement, this e-waste may get into the ground and poison the water with dangerous toxins (毒素), such as lead, mercury, and arsenic. Burning the waste also dangerously contaminates the air.However, e-waste often contains reusable silver, gold, and other electrical materials. Recycling these materials reduces environmental problems by reducing both landfill waste and the need to look for such metals, which can destroy ecosystems.A growing number of states have adopted laws to ban dumping e-waste. Still, less than a quarter of this waste will reach lawful recycling programs. Some companies advertising safe disposal in fact merely ship the waste to some developing countries, where it still ends up in landfills. These organizations prevent progress by unsafely disposing of waste in an out- of- sight, out- of- mind location.However, the small but growing number of cities and corporations that do handle e- waste responsibly represents progress toward making the world a cleaner, better place for us all.32.
