Concerning.CRoller coasters are popular attractions at amusement parks all over the world, and patrons （顾客）flock to them for thrills, especially in the summer. Some deaths and serious injuries have been associated with them, however, raising concerns about their safety. especially for fragile and elderly riders.Statistically, a roller coaster is not very dangerous, especially if a rider is in good physical condition. Amusement park patrons are far more likely to die in accidents on the way to the park than they are to suffer injuries on a ride, assuming that the equipment is well maintained and run responsibly. Parks run many tests on their equipment to ensure that it is safe for use, including measurements designed to determine the g-forces that riders will be subject to.There are, however, a few instances in which riding a roller coaster may be unsafe. For all riders, riding equipment that is not well maintained is risky. Before riding, it is always a good idea for riders to inspect the equipment as much as possible. They should look for signs of rust, poor repair jobs, or dirt, suggesting that the roller coaster is not well cared for. Small children are especially at risk of falling out of cars with bars, due to their small size, so their guardians must make sure that they are completely and safely restrained.Roller coasters can also be dangerous for people with heart conditions. The sense of excitement that accompanies a ride is also accompanied by an elevated heart rate, which can cause a heart attack. People with known heart conditions should talk to a medical professional about riding any rough ride, because they may be unsafe.In addition, roller coasters have been linked with the appearance of blood clots（凝块）on the brain. This occurs very rarely, but it is linked with rides that subject patrons to high g-forces or instance where a passenger was whipped around as a result of poorly secured safety equipment. Individuals who take blood thinners should avoid such attractions for this reason, and anyone who experiences repeated headaches aftera ride should mention it to a healthcare provider.28. W hy does the author believe a roller coaster is not very dangerous?A. P atrons are usually in good health.B. P arks test it regularly to make it safe for use.C. O nly minor injuries happen on a ride.D. M ost deaths are resulted from road accidents.29. What should riders do before riding?A.Determine the g-forces they will bear.B. Receive a medical examination.C. Read the directions carefully.D. Check the equipment carefully.30. When your child wants to take a roller coaster, you should .A.make him or her safely restrainedB. talk to a medical professionalC. find a car that fits his or her sizeD. check the condition for bad signsA. have a headacheB. feel tiredC. are very nervousD. take blood thinnersDResearchers have developed a GPS-enabled aerial robot that flies out over large bodies of water to drop life preservers near people who are drowning.A working prototype of the robot, called Pars, was developed by RTS Lab, and Iran-based company, which also tested the machine's capabilities in open water. Over the course of four days in August of this year, the Pars development team visited the Caspian Sea to conduct a battery of tests on its brand new prototype. The location was chosen partly because it's been the site of several tragic drownings in the past few years* like the unpleasant incident of 6 students drowning together in July, 2019.The team tested the Pars' stability during flight, the accuracy of the life preserver release mechanism, and the bot's performance in both day and night time conditions, 'Gizmag' reported. According to the researchers at RTS Labs, the prototype bot met their expectations perfectly. The Pars was able to fly for 10 minutes at a top speed of 10 m/s before needing to recharge. This gives it a maximum range of 4. 5 km, making it ideal for emergencies occurring along coastlines and near ships at sea.treacherous（危险的）waters with ease. When conducting a trial rescue mission, the drone（无人驾驶飞机）was able to reach a target 75 m away and drop its payload in about 22 seconds, while a human lifeguard took 91 seconds to swim to the same location.During testing at night, the Pars was also able to illuminate（照亮）targets on the ground and make itself more visible to its controller on land using several bright LEDs. While the aerial bot cannot pull anyone to safety just yet, it could be sent out ahead of rescue crews to provide some initial aid.32. For what purpose do the researchers develop Pars?A. To make the work of lifeguards easier.B. To provide quick aid to drowningpeople.C. To pull drowning people to safety.D. To find drowning people for lifeguards.A. drowning accidents happened here a lotB.it is a good site for swimmingC. it has large open waterD.it is near the research center34. What can we infer from the Paragraph 3?A. Pars needed recharging too often.B. Pars couldn't fly over a long distance.C. Pars can only be used near coastlines.D. The researchers were happy with Pars' performance.35.What does the underlined part "flesh and blood counterparts" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Normal robots.B. Swimmers.C. Human lifeguards.D. Drowning people.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。

高考英语全真模拟卷一、阅读理解（本大题共11小题，共22.0分）AI was in the Sants Cruz Mountains not long ago，speaking and singing at a women's conference．We were focusing on the theme of loving others in practical ways through our gifts，and something in particular happened during one of the sessions（会议）will remain imprinted in memory．A young Syrian woman（Lilith）was invited to the conference at the last minute，and everyone seemed surprised and delighted that she'd actually come．Just a few days earlier，Lilith had fled her country and found refuge with one of the women attending the conference．As an Orthodox Christian in Syria，she and her loved ones had become attacked targets of violent terrorist groups in the country's ongoing civil war．Lilith had witnessed horrors no one of her young age should ever see．Despite the further danger it presented，she'd decided to leave her home and her family to find safety here in America．Knowing some of her story，and seeing her sitting through the sessions at the retreat （畏缩不前）------head，covered in a scarf，bowed toward the floor------broke my heart．Lilith's story touched all of us，including Pam，who was quilt maker．Pam had just finished a beautiful quilt，and had brought it with her．She，along with a few of the leaders，decided to give it to Lilith as a symbol of their comfort and love．During our last session，Lilith was called forward and prayed over，hugged，and wrapped up in that beautiful quilt．I thought of the many hours Pam undoubtedly spent working on it，and the terrible events that led Lilith to this moment-----surrounded by the beauty and love quilt embodied．I wept．When they told her it was for her，she wept．1.What is the purpose of the women's conference？______A. To help others in a practical way．B. To win equal rights for women．C. To get together to dance and sing．D. To exchange gifts with each other．2.Why did Lilith go to America？______A. To attend the women's conference．B. To find safety．C. To find her family．D. To find a better job．3.From this passage，we know that the writer is ______ ．A. enthusiasticB. sympatheticC. intelligentD. talented4.What is the meaning of the underlined word？______A. a place of interestB. a place of dangerC. a place of conferenceD. a place of shelterBYou know the feeling that you have left your phone at home and feel anxious，as if you have lost your connection to the world．"Nomophobia" （无手机恐惧症）affects teenagers andadults alike．You can even do an online test to see if you have it．Last week，researchers from Hong Kong warned that nomophobia is infecting everyone．Their study found that people who use their phones to store，share and access personal memories suffer most．When users were asked to describe how they felt about their phones，words such as "hurt" （neck pain was often reported）and "alone" predicted higher levels of nomophobia．"The findings of our study suggest that users regard smartphones as their extended selves and get attached to the devices，" said Dr．Kim Ki Joon．"People experience feelings of anxiety and unpleasantness when separated from their phones．" Meanwhile，an American study shows that smartphone separation can lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure．So can being without your phone really give you separation anxiety？Professor Mark Griffiths，psychologist and director of the International Gaming Research Unit at Nottingham Trent University，says it is what is on the phone that counts-the social networking that creates Fomo （fear of missing out）．"We are talking about an internet-connected device that allows people to deal with lots of aspects of their lives，" says Griffiths．"You would have to surgically remove a phone from a teenager because their whole life is rooted in this device．"Griffiths thinks attachment theory，where we develop emotional dependency on the phone because it holds details of our lives，is a small part of nomophobia．For "screenagers"，it is Fomo that creates the most separation anxiety．If they can't see what's happening on Snapchat or Instagram，they become panic-stricken about not knowing what's going on socially．"But they adapt very quickly if you take them on holiday and there's no internet，" says Griffiths．5.Which of the following may Dr．Kim Ki Joon agree with？______A. We waste too much time on phones．B. Phones have become part of some users．C. Addiction to phones makes memories suffer．D. Phones and blood pressure are closely linked．6.According to Giffiths，we get nomophobia because ______ ．A. we are accustomed to having a phone on usB. we need our phones to help us store informationC. we worry we may miss out what our friends are doingD. we fear without phones we will run into a lot of trouble7.Where can you probably find the above passage？______A. In a research report．B. In a fashion brochure．C. In a science textbook．D. In a popular science magazine．CAre some people born clever，and others born stupid？Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience？Strangely enough，the answer to these questions is yes．To some degree our intelligence is given to us at birth，and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence．On the other hand，a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings．Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth，whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment．This view，now held by most experts，can be supported in a number of ways．It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with．The closerthe blood relationship between two people，the closer they are likely to be intelligent．Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population，it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different．If，on the other hand，we take two identical twins，they will very likely be as intelligent as each other．Relations like brothers and sisters，parents and children，usually have similar intelligence，and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth．Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments．We might send one，for example，to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring．We would soon find differences in intelligence developing，and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part．This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other，but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence．8.The writer is in favor of the view that man's intelligence is given to him ______ ．A. at birthB. through educationC. both at birth and through educationD. through environment of one's family9.If a child is born with high intelligence，he can ______ ．A. surely become a geniusB. still become a genius if he isn't given good educationC. reach his intelligence limits through his own effortsD. probably reach his intelligence limits in rich and varied surroundings10.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows ______ ．A. the importance of their intelligenceB. the role of environment on intelligenceC. the importance of their positionsD. the part that birth plays11.The best title of the passage can be ______ ．A. On IntelligenceB. On GeniusC. Dependence on EnvironmentD. Effect of Education on Intelligence二、阅读七选五（本大题共7小题，共18.0分）You can either travel or read，but either your body or soul must be on the way．The popular saying has inspired many people to read or go sightseeing．Traveling，just like reading，is a refreshing journey from the busy world．Books，brain food，can keep you company on your travel．1．On the Road，1957，by Jack KerouacThe book is a globally popular spiritual guide book about youth．The main character in the book drives across the US continent with several young people and finally reaches Mexico．After the exhausting and exciting trip，the characters in the book begin to realize the meaning of life．The book can be a good partner with you to explore the United States．2．Life is Elsewhere，1975，by Milan KunderaJean-Jacques Rousseau once said，"Man is born free，and everywhere he is in chains．" The book tells a young artist's romantic but miserable life，about how he reads，dreams and has a relationship．Experience the artist's passionate life in the book during a trip to Central Europe．The book invites you to deeply reflect on your current life．3．The Stories of the Sahara，1967，by SanmaoThe book narrates the author's simple but adventurous life in the Sahara Desert，which seemsa desolate and dull place．The fancy natural scenery and life there，along with the author's romantic and intensive emotions will inspire you to explore the mysterious land．Reading the book is like participating in a dialogue with the author，who is sincere and humorous．4．Lotus，2006，by AnnbabyThis novel set in Tibet，tells three people's stories，each with their unique characteristics．It reveals modern people's emotions and inner life，their confusion about love，and exploration of Buddhism．The book is a good partner to bring you to the scared land Tibet．（1）Which book is about the exploration of life value through a journey？______A．On the Road．B．Life is Elsewhere．C．Lotus．D．The Stories of the Sahara．（2）Whose book is suitable to accompany your trip to Germany？______A．Milan Kundera's．B．Sanmao's．C．Annbaby's．D．Jack Kerouac's．（3）What can we learn from the text？______A．The Stories of the Sahara records the dialogues between the author and her readers．B．Life is Elsewhere promotes readers' consideration of their present lives．C．Lotus is a religious book which explores Buddhist culture in Tibet．D．On the Road is intended to advise a classic route for driving across the US．（4）What is the author's purpose in writing the text？______A．To advertise four travel guidebooks．B．To introduce four novels about traveling．C．To recommend four books linked to destinations．D．To arouse readers' interest in reading books．12.

as意为"担任（充当；起…的作用）"，是固定搭配．故填as．2．to celebrate．考查动词不定式．chance后接动词不定式作后置定语．故填to celebrate．3．features．考查动词时态．主语the festival是单数，且表示一般事实，要用一般现在时．故填features．4．written．考查过去分词．book与write之间是动宾关系，用过去分词作后置定语．故填written．5．basic．考查形容词．necessities是名词，要用形容词修饰．故填basic．6．living．考查现在分词．介词后接动词时用动名词形式．故填living．7．first．考查序数词．根据第一段可知，去年举行的是第一次，用序数词first．故填first．8．an．考查冠词．educator是可数名词，单数形式前加不定冠词a表示泛指，因extraordinary读音以发元音开头，用不定冠词an．此处educator and philosopher意为"教育家兼哲学家"，是同一个人．故填an．9．that/who．考查强调句．英语强调句型：It is/ was + 被强调部分（通常是主语、宾语或状语）+ that/ who（当强调主语且主语指人）+ 其他部分．故填that/who．10．consideration．考查名词．介词后接名词作宾语．without consideration意为"不予考虑"．故填consideration．本文主要介绍美籍华人社区团体正准备于9月8日在纽约最东端的法拉盛皇后区举办第二届年度国际孔子文化节．这次活动不仅是一场纪念这位世界著名中国哲学家的盛会，也是一个与其他地方社区一起庆祝中国文化的机会．该艺术节由美国东部的山东商会和孔子教育基金会共同赞助，其特色是背诵"弟子归"，这是一本以孔子的教导为基础的书，强调做一个好人的基本条件和与他人和谐相处的指导原则，以及中国传统舞蹈、山东民间音乐和摄影展．在一篇200词左右的语篇（短文或对话）中留出10处空白，部分空白的后面给出单词的基本形式，要求考生根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容或所提供单词的正确形式，所填写词语不得多于3个单词．要做好语法填空题，理解短文是解题的前提，扎实的词汇、句型和语法知识是基础，英语国家的背景知识是必要的补充．考生须灵活运用语法知识，如单词词性、单词时态、名词单复数、连接词、代词、冠词等判断各空白处应填写的内容．答完后，还要通读全文，核对所填单词形式是否正确，是否符合语境．40.【答案】Dear Mr． Brown，I'm really glad to receive your letter． As you have seen， many Chinese choose to stick t he character Fu on the door upside down during the Spring Festival．【高分句型一】 This actually expresses their best wishes for the new year． In Chinese， the character for "upside down" sounds the same as the character for "to arrive" ，so this means that happiness is arriving． Quite interesting， isn't it？（介绍福字倒贴的原因和这一传统的寓意，）By the way， I'd like to invite you to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival with my family af ter the College Entrance Exam． It's a day in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan and we

Hua【解析】高分句型1．As you have seen，many Chinese choose to stick the character Fu on the door upside down during the Spring Festival．句子里，As 引导非限制性定语从句you have seen，代指主句many Chinese choose to stick the character Fu on the door upside down during the Spring Festival正如你所看到的，许多中国人在春节期间都会把"福"字倒贴在门上．2．It's a day in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan and we usually eat zongzi and enjoy dragon boat races．句子里，固定短语in memory of 表示"纪念"．今天是纪念伟大诗人屈原的日子，我们通常吃粽子，欣赏龙舟比赛．写作中，要注意抓住提示的信息，并注意进行适当发挥．表达中要注意确定句子的时态与语态，注意句式结构的正确和变化多样，适当运用短语、并列句、复合句、介词短语和副词等，以使文章饱满．。

The Special and the Ordinary．BIt was a dinner party from hell（地狱）．Not because of the lovely guests．The problem was that they were all experts in cooking．And they were all waiting for a pudding（布丁）I had cooked for them．I lifted my spoon high above the poached（水煮）peach and readied myself for it to sink easily into the peach．Instead the spoon bent at the neck．The fruit was hard，even though it had been cooked for an hour．It was my stupid mistake．Over the past two years or so，I have passed judgment on the cooking skills of over 100 chefs （厨师）．I thought it could now be fun to get some chefs to pass judgment on me．Little did I know what I was letting myself in for．The starter was a French onion pie．It's a classic dish and would be a test of my skills．And it's the only cooked starter I know how to do．Next，the main course．My wife suggested doing the lamb（羔羊肉）thing first．I agreed ．It' s a good dinner party dish because even if you overcook the meat，it's still a pleasure．The lamb is filled with a mixture of small pieces of bread，tomatoes，olives and so on．The only problem is that in this condition the meat has to come out pink，which fortunately it did．As to the pudding，I would do peaches poached in Muscat wine with cream．There was only one problem that I had forgotten that peaches were out of season and much like rocks．What did the guest chefs say about my cooking ability？"With all good dinner parties，as with the best restaurants，the food is by no means the only important thing and it was exciting that the party combined great diners and my host's generosity．And the food？As it happens ，it was really rather good---should have had a cheese course though．And the plates could have been hotter．"4.What did the author mean by saying it was "a dinner party from hell"？______A.

He had bought fruit out of seasonCEvery year，about 75，000 Great White Pelicans fly away from Eastern Europe's cold winter to East Africa，where they spend the summer．It's a long journey and the main stop is in Israel．The Great White Pelican is a huge bird．It's thelargest bird in the world to make such a long journey．Its diet is mainly fish and it eats about 1.4 kilos each day．The pelicans love to gather in large numbers．Until recent years，there were plenty of water supplies （供给）in Israel．Frequently，the pelicans arrive in Israel tired．They cannot continue their long journey until they have rested．However，for a variety of reasons，these water supplies have dried up and the pelicans have had to find other food sources．Fish farming has become big business in Israel．As you may imagine，a fish farm is something pelicans could usually only dream of! In the summer months when the Great White Pelicans passed through，Israel's fish farmers began to lose tons of fish．Some farms were even forced to close their business．Something had to be done．The Israel Ministry of Agriculture considered the problem carefully．How could it stop 75，000 huge pelicans from arriving in Israel？It decided this was not possible．It chose a place with a plentiful supply of water，and provided money for local farmers to buy food，which they fed to the pelicans．The pelicans soon understood this and now arrive at the place to feed and rest．They no longer have to rely on the fish farms for food．It's a solution that seems to have worked．At one point，it looked as if the Ministry would stop the money．One criticism （批评）was that with so much food，the pelicans would never leave and would become even more expensive．However，there was such outcry from environmentalists and farmers that the money remains．Perhaps their large numbers in Israel will attract birdwatchers from all over the world to visit the amazing sight，and tourism can bring new income to the country．8.What can we learn about Great White Pelicans？______A. They are loners．B. They winter in Israel．C. They are good at long-distance flying．D. They reduce their intake during their journey．9.What problem did the fish farmers face？______A. The pelicans damaged the local environment．B. Their farms were closed by the government．C. The water supplies were not enough．D. They suffered a heavy loss of fish．10.What measures did the government take？______A. They prevented the pelicans stopping in Israel．B. They encouraged farmers to develop tourism．C. They gave farmers money to farm more fish．D. They found a new place for the pelicans．11.What is the author's attitude to the pelicans in Israel？______A. Optimistic．B. Unclear．C. Doubtful．D. Unconcerned．DNo one can deny （否认）that LeBron James gets paid a lot of money ---but no one can deny that he hasn't earned it either．He's broken the records of greats like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson．He's a talent（天才）．Professional athletes like LeBron give their lives to their sport to --- training，traveling，and pushing themselves to the limit．And while their lives may seem glamorous，think about this ：Athletes face injuries that can be not only career-ending but also life-changing．In fact，many retired（退休的）athletes have long-term health problems because of how hard they push on their bodies．Retired New York Jets player Wesley Walker said that he suffered so much pain as a result of playing football that today he can hardly open a water bottle．The toll （代价）a professional athlete's career takes on his or her body means more than a lifetime of pain （and medical bills）；it also means a short career．Athletes need pay that will carry them past the 5 to 15 years they are able to play．Without the showstopping performances of stars like Serena Williams and Stephen Curry，many jobs wouldn't exist．Sports reporters，stadium workers，cheerleaders，and coaches are among those who can thank the professional sports industry for their employment．It may seem unfair that athletes get paid to play a game，but remember who they are really playing for：us．We're the ones who fill stadiums in rain and snow to watch their games，who crowd around the television to cheer them on，and who feel immeasurable joy when our team wins．The work of professional athletes certainly pays off for us．Shouldn't it pay off for them too？12.What does the underlined word "glamorous" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？______A.

When I was a child growing up in Ohio, the butterflies would sometimes pass through on their way to Mexico． And it was awesome to see football fields full of them ﹣ and I wanted to revisit that on a larger scale． I knew I had to go to see the migration in Mexico． But I was on a budget． I didn't want to rent a car in Mexico or take a bus to Valle de Bravo, the starting point for most butterfly adventures, so I called the guys at the Muddy Boot, travel experts in Mexico who can make almost anything happen at a reasonable rate． And so, on January 2, I found myself in the Muddy Boot van （货车）, being driven two hours from Mexico City to Valle de Bravo, a lovely town on a volcanic lake which is a central point for the butterfly journeys． I booked a two﹣night stay at the Hotel Rodavento, an all eco﹣friendly hotel with individual wooden houses spread throughout the forest and around a lake．The first sanctuary （保护区） I visited was Piedra Herrada, a popular destination, as it is only 40 minutes away from Valle de Bravo． The climb up is tiring． It is advisable to hire a horse． But the horse cannot take you all the way, and there is some hiking in thin air, so you must be patient, drink a lot of water, and be in reasonably good shape．The walk is more than worth it, though． As I struggled to catch my breath, I looked up and lost my breath again． At first glance, the trees had turned into different shapes, but on closer inspection, every inch of them was covered with butterflies．A few flew through the air （Most of them were not warm enough）． As the sunrose, they began to come alive． Soon the air was filled with flying butterflies, transforming the forest into something magical and straight out of a fairy tale．（1）Why did the author choose to take the Muddy Boot van？________A She couldn't afford to rent a car．B She preferred to travel alone．C She wanted to save some money．D She hoped to reach the destination earlier．．（2）What can we learn about Piedra Herrada？________A It is at a high altitude．B It is far from Valle de Bravo．C It is full of wild animals．D It is only accessible by riding a horse．．（3）What made the author's hiking worthwhile？________A Becoming healthier．B Breathing in fresh air．C Finding trees of different shapes．D Seeing the butterfly migration．．（4）What type of writing is the text？________A A news report．B A scientific paper．C A travel diary．D A commercial ad．3. Why elephants rarely get cancer is a mystery that has confused scientists for decades． A study led by researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute （HCI）, at the University of Utah and Arizona State University may have found the answer．According to the results, elephants have 38 additional modified copies of a gene that encodes p53, a definite tumor ________, as compared to humans, who have onlytwo． Further, elephants may have a more powerful mechanism for killing damaged cells that are at risk for becoming cancerous． In isolated elephant cells, this activity is doubled compared to healthy human cells, and five times that of cells from patients with Li﹣Fraumeni Syndrome, who have only one working copy of p53 and more than a 90 percent lifetime cancer risk in children and adults． The results suggest extra p53 could explain elephants' increased resistance to cancer．"Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer． It's up to us to learn how different animals overcome the problem so we can adapt those strategies to prevent cancer in people, " says co﹣senior author Joshua Schiffman, M．D．, pediatric oncologist （儿科肿瘤医生） at Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah School of Medicine．But Prof Mel Greaves, from the Institute of Cancer Research in London, says we should focus on why humans have such high levels of cancer． He pointed to the rise of unhealthy, cancer﹣causing behaviors, such as obesity and sunbathing． "You've never seen an elephant smoke!" he added．According to Schiffman, elephants have long been considered a walkingproblem． Because they have 100 times as many cells as people, they should be 100 times more likely to have a cell slip into a cancerous state and cause the disease over their long life span of 50 to 70 years． And yet analysis of a large database of elephant deaths estimates a cancer death rate of less than 5 percent compared to 11 to 25 percent in people．（1）Why are elephants less likely to get cancer than humans？________A Elephants are bigger than humans．B Elephants have more p53 genes and mechanism killing damaged cells．C Elephants are not as clever as humans in walking．D Elephants eat more than humans．．（2）Which of the following can be the equivalent of the underlined word "suppressor"？________A multiplierB complexC restrainerD coordinator．（3）What's Prof Mel Greaves' attitude towards the discovery？________A Doubtful．B Neutral．C Critical．D Favorable．．（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？________A Elephants have longer life than people．B There is no chance that elephants diefrom cancer． C The rate of elephants dying from cancer is increasing． D It was thought theoretically that elephants could get cancer more easily．4. The second little pig was unlucky． He built his house from sticks, which was blown away by a wolf． His brother, by contrast, built a wolf﹣proof house from bricks． The fairy tale could have been written by an agent for the construction industry, strongly favoring brick, concrete and steel． However, in the real world it would help reduce pollution and slow global warming if more builders copied the wood﹣loving second pig．No other building material has environmental credentials （认证信息） as exciting and overlooked as wood． The energy required to produce a laminated wooden beam（层压木梁） is one﹣sixth of that required for a steel one of comparable strength． As trees take carbon out of the atmosphere when growing, wooden buildings contribute to negative emissions by storing the stuff． And for refitting older buildings to be more energy efficient, wood is a good insulator （绝缘体）． A softwood window frame provides nearly 400 times as much insulation as a plain steel one of the same thickness and over a thousand times as much as an aluminium（铝） equivalent．But such bigger stories are still uncommon． Governments can help push the industry to use more wood, particularly in the public sector﹣the construction industry's biggest client． That would help wood﹣building specialists achieve greater scale and lower costs． Zero﹣carbon building regulations should be altered to take account of the emissions that are presented in materials．Construction codes could be regulated to make building with wood easier． Here the direction of travel is wrong． Britain, for instance, is banning the use of timber on the outside of tall buildings after 72 people died in a tower fire in London in 2017． That is a nonsense． Grenfell Tower was covered in aluminium and plastic, not wood． Modern cross ﹣laminated timber （交叉层叠木板） panels perform better in fire tests than steel ones do． Carpentry alone will not bring the environmental cost of the world's buildings into line． But using wood can do much more than is appreciated． The second little pig was not wrong, just before his time．（1）The purpose of the writer telling the story in the first paragraph is to________．A attract the readers' attention．B make the argument moreconvincing． C criticize the author of the tale． D lead in the topic of the text．．（2）Paragraph 2 is intended to inform us________．A wood is a good insulator．B such skyscrapers with wood are uncommon currently．C the unique advantages of wood material being friendly environmental．D how wood reduces the emission of carbon dioxide．．（3）Which of the following does NOT belong to the governments' measures to help the scheme？________A To encourage the construction industry's biggest client to use more wood．B Totransform Zero﹣carbon building regulations． C To arouse the public's awareness of protecting the woods． D To regulate the Construction codes．．（4）The author may imply that________．A the second pig in the tale was unlucky．B the outside of tall buildings Grenfell Tower could have been constructed in wood．C we haven't appreciated the characteristics of using wood at all．D wood﹣building specialists will achieve greater profits．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）根据文章内容，从短文后的七个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.

2020届陕西省西安中学英语高考模拟试题第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共4小题；每小题6分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项．11．（6分）Casting Call for TV RoleGender：FemaleLocation：Hollywood，CaliforniaGenre：TV SerialsProducer：Cooper &

training，Howard was shipped off to Europe．On his maiden flight，his plane was shot down over Austria．The entire crew of eight men landed safely．But a farmer found Howard hiding in his barn and turned him over to a prison of war camp in Barth，Germany．It was freezing and the men almost starved to death eating the guards' garbage．Hungry and homesick，Howard coped the only way he knew how．He drew a comic strip．The book，made of cigarette wrappers bound together with scrap metal，was sent around the camp．Every couple of days he would add a new panel．One panel at a time would be passed around the whole camp．And they'd have something to look forward to．After an entire year of this，they woke one morning to find their guards gone．They fledand Howard finally got to go home．Just lucky to get out alive，he left the book behind．Back home in California，Howard soon had a wife and kids to feed so he had to set aside his dream of becoming an artist．He took a job as a gardener instead．Morgan Weistling shared his father's artistic gifts．At 15 his parents sent him to art school．And Howard got to see his son become a well﹣known painter before he died in 2002．That's how，seven decades after the war，when a stranger in New York googled the name "Weistling，" he found Morgan online．"I get an email from a gentleman and he says，'I think I may have some drawings your father did when he was a POW （prisoner of war）in World War II，'" Morgan recalls．"'Would you like them？' And I just stared at that email and started crying．"Luckily Howard had engraved his name on the comic book，which is how the man from New York City had connected with Morgan．A couple of days later when it arrived in California，Morgan couldn't believe it．"It was like getting my father back，" Morgan says．"It was like him being able to tell me the story over again ﹣only this time it was real in my hands．"（1）The passage details Howard's life as a POW to show that．A．war could not stop his pursuit of successB．loss of

used to spend the second half of Sunday fearing Monday morning．Over the years，little tweaks to my routine have changed things to the point that I am in the "I Love Mondays"camp．Here's what I've found that works：Consider Sunday nights your warm﹣up for Monday．Get everything you need for the morning ready to go．If mornings are a struggle…give it a try at least for Mondays and see if it makes a difference．Once that's done，consider a special "Sunday Night Only" calming down ritual （惯例）．It might be tea and a favorite TV show，or it might be a long hot bath and reading until you're ready for sleep．Whatever it is，enjoy this Monday morning warm ﹣up，and consider sleeping a little earlier than you're used to，in order to help with the second step．One of my favorite parts of the weekend is sleeping in and waking up when I'm ready instead of fighting with the alarm for "Just five more minutes!" Sleeping a little early on Sunday night can help with getting up a little early on Monday morning ﹣not to pack more into your morning to﹣do list，but to give yourself time to take it slowly．When you have a little extra time in the morning，you can gently settle into the day and keep that weekend feeling of ease as you start your new week．Find a theme for the week．Every Monday，I post an inspiring quote or saying．These are intentional! Each week，as part of my Sunday night calming down time，I consider what I'd like to focus on in the coming week，and look for a quote that's a good fit to strengthen it．What are you excited about for the new week？What problem﹣solving opportunities do you have？What's been hanging over your head undone from last week？During your preparation time on Sunday night，think about the week ahead and mark a few things that you want to get done and can reasonably accomplish．If possible，schedule at least one of them for Monday，so you've started your week off feeling successful，instead of feeling like there'sa mountain of tasks ahead of you．The work is the same either way，but our attitudes arealways within our control．When you are intentionally creating a life you love，Mondays begin to feel less like drudgery（单调乏味的苦差事），and more like a beautiful start!（1）The underlined word "tweaks" is the closest in meaning to．A．mistakesB．problemsC．adjustmentsD．encouragements（2）What's the benefit of getting up early enough on Monday morning？A．You can get to your office and start work in time．B．You can have enough time to sit with your tea or coffee．C．You can have the weekend feeling longer by starting slowly．D．You can have enough time to make a to﹣do list for the week．（3）What does the author want to indicate in Para.5？A．Be confident to solve the problems．B．Look for opportunities for the week．C．Arrange your tasks well for the week．D．Positive attitude means a happy Monday．（4）What might be the best title for this passage？A．Monday Morning Warm UpB．How to Love Your MondaysC．How to Spend Your MondaysD．Troublesome Monday Disease14．（8分）Even though vaccination（接种疫苗）is a powerful defense against disease，some voices are against it．In a recent letter，the American Medical Association（AMA）urged big social media including Amazon，Facebook and Google to take action to defend medical science on their platforms．It said that vaccine﹣preventable diseases that do harm to the public health like measles（麻疹）are on the rise．Measles cases worldwide jumped more than 30% in 2017 compared to2016，with the largest increases seen among nations in the Americas，Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean．Vaccine﹣preventable diseases are increasing largely because many people are unwilling to get vaccinated．And some of these people even encourage others to refuse vaccination．So this year，the World Health Organization （WHO）declared the anti﹣vaccination movement a top﹣10 health threat．"Vaccination is one of the most cost﹣effective ways of avoiding disease ﹣it currently prevents 2﹣3 million deaths a year，and a further 15 million could be avoided if global coverage of vaccinations improved，" WHO said．A research article published in 1998 in a medical journal suggested a link between a vaccine and the development of autism（自闭症）in young children．Although the research has been suspected and many other studies have proved that vaccinations do not cause autism，the article is still impressing people strongly today．Another reason for the growth in the anti﹣vaccination movement is widespread misinformation on social media，which can turn people against vaccination．If a concerned parent consistently sees information in their Newsfeed that casts doubt on the safety of vaccines，it could cause them to disregard the advice of their children's physicians and public health experts and refuse to follow the recommended vaccination schedule．So access to true information about vaccine safety is badly needed．（1）What does the AMA require social media to do on their platforms？A．Unite to develop new vaccines．B．Stop vaccine misinformation．C．Give up the anti﹣vaccination movement．D．Introduce vaccine﹣preventable diseases．（2）Why does the author mention the measles cases？A．To declare measles can be prevented．B．To prove vaccination doesn't work well．C．To show the result of anti﹣vaccination．D．To explain the reason for avoiding vaccination．（3）Which of the following DOESN'T play a role in the anti﹣vaccination movement？A．The costs of vaccination．B．People's concerns over vaccine safety．C．A research relating vaccination to autism．D．Misinformation spread on social media platforms．（4）What is the author's attitude towards vaccination？A．DoubtfulB．AmbiguousC．PositiveD．Negative第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）Art galleries are places in which artists can display all types of works of art，including paintings，drawings，photographs，sculptures，etc．（1）At the same time，however，each artwork must be protected from exposure to too much light since that can cause works to fade and therefore get ruined．（2）The most common form of lighting used to light up artwork is indoor spotlights on tracks attached to the ceiling near where the work is being displayed．（3）It permits the lights to be moved more easily when the light patterns require adjusting．Recessed（嵌入的）lights in walls and ceilings can be useful so long as they are not fixed in place but can instead be easily moved to create ideal light patterns．Most art gallery directors state that a combination of tracked and recessed light equipment is ideal because the tracked lights focus directly on the artwork while the recessed lights are used on the nearby walls to provide a surrounding light source．（4）How to angle the lights depends upon the height of the ceiling and the size of the artwork．Caution must be taken to avoid creating too many areas with shadows or to have the lights cause a glare on the artwork．Besides，the lights should not be bare bulbs burning directly on the artwork but should be made in some way to make the lighting softer．According to experts，low voltage（电压）bulbs are the best to use when lighting artwork．（5）Thus artwork should be placed in a room where sunlight can't directly hit it．A．It can make the displays attractive．B．Using tracked lighting is beneficial．C．Light plays a key role in art galleries．D．This light source can better improve the mood surrounding the work．E．To better improve their appearance，the display area needs to be well lit．F．Finding a happy medium between not enough light and too much of it requires considerable skill and experience．G．Above all，natural light should be avoided since direct sunlight will damage artwork，particularly paintings，over time．第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．16．（30分）In 1999，Eve and Norman Fertig，a couple，saved a two﹣week﹣old shepherd （牧羊犬）named Shana．One winter

I'm going to be completely honest． I have no idea how I ended up with thisopportunity, I have no idea what I'm doing, but I am very happy to be here．Last summer a friend tagged me in a Facebook post from BBC Earth and encouraged me to apply to the BBC Presenter Search 2018． The assignment was easy and hard, make a video shorter than 60 seconds where you talk about something in science you think iscool． Simple concept, but for me it was challenging as I want to talk about bryophytes（苔藓植物） forever （which is slightly longer than 60 seconds）．So I decided to make an attempt． I was going to make a 60 second video about sphagnum （水苔）, commonly known as peat moss and uncommonly known as an unsung climate hero． Sphagnum is the plant genus that holds the most carbon in the world, it slowly builds up its carbon storage over hundreds of thousands of years and if undisturbed, they never let go of the carbon they gathered．Making a short video on this was hard because I wanted to include everything． And it became even harder as I had no one to hold the camera． I tied my camera to the________little tree, swinging in the wind as a bird tried to chase me away from the mud． This chaos ended up as the video "Why sphagnum is awesome" on my channel． I submitted the video, but didn't dare to write in the description section of the video that it was a submission, because I never imagined that I could win!But I did．I waited two months before I could tell people that I had won the search, and when the news came out, I received the most attention I've had in my entire life．No matter your background, whether you want to pass the time or pass an exam, I really hope you enjoy the video!（1）What can we infer about the author from paragraph 1？________A She is uncertain about the result．B She gets used to telling people lies．C She is unable to achieve the goal．D She knows much about the ending．．（2）Which of the following is NOT true about sphagnum？________A It can form its carbon storage in a very slow way．B It is universally recognized as an unknown climate hero．C It won't release the carbon without being disturbed．D It contains a large amount of carbon．．（3）The underlined word "________ in Paragraph 4 probably means________．A weakestB strongestC shortestD most energetic．（4）What can we learn from the author's story？________A She shows great interest in filming the video．B Her knowledge helps overcome all the difficulties．C Her attitude and hard work pay off eventually．D She is more than delighted to gain the most attention．3. Online live streaming（直播） is big business nowadays, making huge profits and attracting hundreds of millions of viewers． In addition to adults, this rapidly expanding industry is now drawing underage live streamers, who are not of legal age． According to a report by the Sina Weibo Data Center, live streamers aged 11﹣16 accounted for 12 percent of all streamers in China． The figure has been rising still, while streamers are gettingyounger．It has been found that a large number of underage streamers are drinking, smoking or even exposing to attract viewers． In the best case, live streaming will affect children's schoolwork and waste their precious youth． In the worst case, they will develop bad values and an improper outlook, which will damage their future．"Webcasts （web broadcast） are suspected of having a hotbed of improper program． Particularly, the involvement of underage streamers in this industry is making the situation more complex" said Mao Jianguo from Southern Metropolis Daily．Some legal experts recently issued a report on protection of the children in the cyberspace （网络空间）, suggesting that those under 14 should be restricted from independently live streaming and posting videos online．However, it is unwise and impossible to totally reject all underage streamers but it's necessary and even urgent to standardize the underage webcast sector．Fortunately, some webcast companies have said that they will not allow streamers under the age of 18 and online live streamers must register by using their ID． However, the reality is that many underage streamers choose to avoid that by using the IDs of adults, who also go through the face scanning required for conditions． All this means that to block underage streamers from webcasting, it's not enough to depend on their self﹣discipline． Parents should tell their children about the disadvantages of getting involved in live streaming so that children develop an objective attitude toward live streaming． Adults should not lend their IDs to children to register for live streaming． And the watchdogs must patrol（巡逻） webcast platforms more actively and remove all unauthorized videos of underage streamers．（1）What are the first and second paragraphs mainly about？________A A new industry of live streaming came into being．B Online live streaming has been a social concern．C Teenagers are curious about live streamingrecently． D Online live streaming is increasingly popular and bringing bad effects．．（2）According to Mao Jianguo's words， we can indicate________．A children's live streaming is the root of all the social problemsB webcasts contribute to the unhealthy trend in underage live streamingC webcasts are less likely to cause more social problemsD webcasts are the main causes of many youth problems．（3）What do we know about standardized measures mentioned in the text？________A Children shall never use a webcast without the IDs．B Self﹣discipline is an effective way to stop underage streaming．C Parents should guide the children to use webcasts properly．D Watchdogs' duty is to stop children from live streaming．．（4）What is the best title of the text？________A A Full Ban against Children's Live StreamingB The Attraction to Children by a Rapidly Expanding IndustryC Different Opinions about Underage Live Streaming．D An Appeal for Keeping Watch on Underage Live Streaming．4. Most squirrels don't hibernate（冬眠）． Instead, they store food for the cold seasonand spend the winter in their nests． But the 13﹣lined ground squirrel, one species of squirrel in the U．S． Midwest, is not the case． For up to 8 months, the tiny mammals won't eat or drink anything at all and the heart rate, metabolism（新陈代谢）, and body temperature dramatically drop during their long rest, which is similar to bears and other hibernating animals．To find out how the hibernating squirrels hold back their thirst, a powerful force that could potentially wake them up, and researchers measured the blood fluid of dozens of squirrels． Generally, a high blood concentration（血液浓度） makes animals, including humans, feel thirty． The sleeping squirrels' blood concentration was low, preventing them from waking up for a drink． Even when researchers woke up the torpid squirrels, they wouldn't drink a drop until the team artificially increased the concentration of their blood serum．Next, the researchers wanted to know how the squirrels' blood concentration dropped so low． Perhaps the squirrels drank a lot of water before hibernation to dilute（稀释） their blood, the researchers thought． But when they filmed squirrels preparing for their winter snooze, they found the animals actually drank less water than they normally did．Instead, chemical tests revealed the squirrels regulate their blood concentration by getting rid of electrolytes（电解质）like sodium and other chemicals like glucose and urea and storing them elsewhere in the body （possibly in the bladder）, the researchers reported last month in Current Biology． The finding could also explain how other hibernating animals stay containing water．This new knowledge might one day help humans with conditions such as diabetes（糖尿病）, or astronauts who have launched on long space flights． Unfortunately, even if people can figure out how to drop their blood concentration, it's unlikely they'll ever be as cute as sleeping squirrels．（1）What do we know about the 13﹣lined ground squirrels？________A They don't hibernate like many other squirrels．B They are endangered species in the U． S． Midwest．C They can live for months without water during hibernation．D Their heart rule and body temperature are extremely abnormal．．（2）The hibernating squirrels don' feel thirsty because of their________．A high blood concentrationB low blood concentrationC low bodytemperature D high heart rate．（3）Hibernating squirrels adjust their blood concentrations by________．A Drinking much water before hibernationB Not eating anything during hibernationC Drinking less water than they normally doD Removing certain chemicals and storing them somewhere．（4）What is the author's attitude towards the new findings？________A ObjectiveB PositiveC DisappointingD Uncaring．第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5. Motivate yourself to be on time， and trick yourself into punctual（准时的） habits，with these tips．Never explain why you're late． If you don't allow yourself to make excuses， you'll stop letting yourself off the hook． And you'll realize how often you've been handing out reasons as if everyone didn't already know them． There's a classic headline， "Woman Constantly Treating Herself for Once．" Don't be "Person Constantly Delayed for This One Good Reason．" （1）_______ That's the decent thing to do．（2）_______ If you're paid hourly， find out how much less you make when you clock in late． If you take more expensive modes of transportation， calculate the cost difference． See how much you spend each year on lateness．Imagine being late to meet someone．（3）_______ Think about the worst﹣case reaction they could have， whether that's frustration or a "not mad just disappointed" that makesyou feel like a real dick． Now visualize being early． Think about the peace of mind as you wait for the other person． Think about standing from your seat and warmly greeting them，grandly forgiving their own lateness．Think about your most chronically late friend or colleague． Gin up all the frustration you've ever felt with them， all the disdain． Wow， kind of harsh on your friend， but now think about other people feeling that way toward you．（4）_______Plan exactly what you'll do on your phone while you wait for everyone else to show up．（5）_______ Get excited， not for the thing you're heading to， but for those five minutes alone before it starts．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）6.

Pycnandra acuminata （喜树） is a rare tree native to New Caledonia that has the rare ability to collect heavy metals like nickel （镍） from the ground． The liquid circulated in its body is blue﹣green and reportedly contains up to 25% nickel．In general, trees and heavy metals like nickel don't really go well together． ButPycnandra acuminata make them live together． And that's what makes Pycnandra acuminata so special． It sucks out normally poisonous levels of heavy metals from the soil and store them in its trunk, leaves and seeds．The evolution of Pycnandra acuminata is believed to have occurred over millions of years, but scientists have yet to identify a universal principle of nickel intake and storage． The reason why such trees have formed the way of absorbing metals is also up for debate．The most popular theory states that the concentration of nickel protects such trees from leaf﹣chewing insects． And studies have shown that nickel accumulated by these trees indeed harms many insects though some have developed a high tolerance to it． Another theory says nickel has effects of resisting bacteria, which protects the trees from various diseases． However, these theories are all just theories．One thing that has been proven is the ability of Pycnandra acuminata to clean the soil with poisonous materials caused by human activity． There's also clear potential for collecting heavy materials like nickel in these kinds of soils that will bring a few profits by conventional ways of mining． People can collect minerals contained in such soils from the blue﹣green trees．Unfortunately, Pycnandra acuminata is recently in a bad situation． Human activity in forests of New Caledonia has made Pycnandra acuminata indanger． Consequently, probably fewer than several hundred trees of this kind have remained as a result of the reduction of our forests．（1）What do we know about Pycnandra acuminata？________A It has a blue﹣green color due to metals collected．B It tends to grow in the soil with much poisonous liquid．C It sucks out a great deal of poisonous underground water．D It is able to collect some heavy metals from the ground．．（2）What do the theories in paragraph 4 say about Pycnandra acuminata？________A It indeed protects many insects．B It stores most nickel in its roots．C It makes its surrounding plants suffer from diseases．D It protects itself through the concentration of nickel．．（3）What does the author mainly want to express in the last paragraph？________A Pycnandra acuminata is in danger．B Forests are to blame for the reduction of trees．C Forests are decreasing as a result of human activity．D Pycnandra acuminata is under the protection of people．．（4）In which section of a magazine is this text most likely to appear？________A Bacteria and disease．B Man and nature．C Fashion and entertainment．D Health and life．4. Fancy your own satellite? Arizona State University is working towards making this a reality with its SunCube FemtoSat project． Smaller than a standard CubeSat, the low﹣cast student﹣designed spacecraft is aimed at providing greater access to space for scientists and hobbyists alike．Assistant professor Jekan Thanga and a team of students have been developing the SunCube FemtoSat for the past two years． The small 3×3×3cm cube weighs in at just 35g and a longer （3×3×9cm, 100g） model has also been designed, which includes storage space．Each SunCube FemtoSat has its own communication, data collection and propulsion （推进） systems and is powered by solar panels． It is made of off﹣the﹣ shelf parts that are available in shops, and the energy﹣efficient solar panels are cut from scrap （碎片）, which makes it save energy, sold at a discount by manufacturers． "With a spacecraft of this size, any university can do it, " says Thanga． "That's part of our major goal﹣space discovery for everybody．"The team says that while launching your own satellite would usually cost between US ＄60, 000﹣70, 000 per kilo, it would only cost ＄1, 000 to send a SunCube FemtoSat to the International Space Station, and ＄3, 000 to send it into low earth orbit． Leaving the earths gravity would cost an estimated ＄27, 000．The FemtoSat would be packed with a "jack in the box" style system that matches standard CubeSat sizes （around 10 cubic cm）, simplifying the process of getting the tiny satellite into orbit． NASA has sent 30 CubeSats into space over the last few years, with another 50 awaiting launch．Thanga and his staff view the FemtoSat as a starting point for scientists and students, and even hope the device could be bought on the website like Amazon one day． Thanga imagines developing four main applications for the device, including hands﹣on testing experiences for students, and artificial gravity experiments． In addition, groups of SunCube FemtoSats could eventually be able to do the job of larger spacecraft at a vastly discounted cost．（1）What is the major goal of the SunCube FemtoSat project？________A To act on teaching in outer space．B To provide access to spacecraftdesign． C To help average individuals explore space． D To help carry out a classroom experiment．．（2）What is special about SunCube FemtoSats？________A They are energy﹣efficient．B They are of the same size．C They are mainly designed for lab use．D They are mainly used to collect information．．（3）What does Thanga expect of SunCube FemtoSats？________A They'll be provided for free．B They'll be available online one day．C They'll match the size of CubeSats．D They'll be sent into space with CubeSats．．（4）What can be the best title for the text？________A FemtoSats Will Rule SpaceB Your Own Satellite Is ComingC Going into Space Has Been AffordableD You Can Design Your Own Spacecraft．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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5.

AYou might have heard a lot about ancient towns and ancient cities in China.

By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in “Section L”. I found out later that everyone called Section L “Loserville”. It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that.Ana’s texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, I had to try to make things better.The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn’t. I was still stuck in “Loserville”, and some people were still mean to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new people there, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn’t so hard anymore. Even though I couldn’t change my situation, I could change my attitude—and that made all the difference.4. “Loserville” is a section for ________.A. failuresB. good studentsC. class secretsD. newcomers5. The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.A. Ana didn’t text back to herB. her friends hurt her feelingsC. she was unfairly treatedD. she was a good student6. What made a difference in changing the situation?A. She went back to Illinois.B. She ended friendship with Ana.C. She fought back with her classmates.D. She began to make friends with others.7. The best title for the passage can be ________.A. Lasting FriendshipB. An Incidence at SchoolC. Say Goodbye to “Loserville”D. Unhappiness in “Loserville”CMoscow city authorities have begun using comics（漫画）with characters from Russian fairy tales to explain to migrants（移民）how they should behave. They say a 100-page guide is needed to "keep a positive image" of the city and could help reduce "tensions" between natives and migrants. But critics have pointed out that foreign migrants and natives may be regarded as antagonists in the manual(手册).Russians and migrants have repeatedly flooded in Moscow recently. Many migrants from ex-Soviet republics in Central Asia, the Caucasus（高加索）and North Caucasus, arrive in Moscow every year, attracted by the capital’s job opportunities and relatively high salaries. A significant number of them workin the Russian capital illegally.The new guide in Russian seeks to explain the "dos" and "don’ts" to migrants. They are urged not to cause trouble, by staring at women, or eating or talking loudly on the streets. They are also warned that the police may routinely（例行公事）stop them to check their documents.In the manual, Russia’s famous "three warriors" are meant to represent the city’s law enforcement agencies（执法机关）, while Prince Y uri Dolgoruky (a historical character) is used for tours around Moscow. Meanwhile, Vasilisa the Wise and The Snow Maiden test the reader on Russia’s language a nd history. A special section of the book explains the importance of following Moscow’s strict residency and employment rules, stressing that migrants could otherwise be deported(驱逐出境) or banned from entry.The manual was written primarily for illegal migrants, Alexander Kalinin, who heads the group Support for Working Migrants in Moscow, told BBC Russian."We want to raise their level of law awareness," he added.Migrant characters had initially(最初) been identified as representatives of different nationalities, but the book’s authors later decided to drop this idea so as "not to offend anyone", said Mr. Kalinin."The old conflict between Russian heroes and non-Slavic invaders is being revived," Yevgeny Varshaver, a migration expert told BBC Russian. He also suggested that the language used in the book would be "difficult" to understand for some migrants who were not native Russian speakers.8. The underlined word "antagonists" in Paragraph 1 can probably be replaced by "_____".A. friendsB. acquaintancesC. cooperatorsD. opponents9. People from other countries come to Moscow "_____"A. to find well-paid jobsB. to have a new lifestyleC. to enjoy the fine climateD. to experience a new culture10. The third paragraph is mainly about"_____".A. consequences the migrants may sufferB. the purpose of publishing the handbookC. the measures to attract foreign migrantsD. characters and their functions in Russian fairytales11. Which of the following would be the best title of the text?A. Ways to help foreign migrants to settle in RussiaB. Characters from Russian fairy tales have new jobsC. More and more foreign migrants to work in MoscowD. Moscow fairy tale comics to help migrants behaveDIn this Pennsylvania city, Pittsburgh is shrinking but getting wealthier. Since 2000, its population has declined by 95,000 while its income per capita (人均) has shot up 24 percent. The trend is taking hold in many other cities, like Buffalo in New York, Providence in Rhode Island and New Orleans.Some of these areas have created more high-paying jobs in energy, health care or education. Others have managed to reshape their producing industry for a new economy. Higher-paying jobs have a greater effect because they create demand for additional services. "The story in Pittsburgh is very positive, and other areas are looking at it as an example of the transformation that might be possible，”said Guhan Venkatu, who wrote an economic history of the area called “Rust and Renewal” for the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland.Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh have helped bring tech jobs and innovation(革新) to the area by sponsoring tech centers that help graduates start companies without moving to Silicon Valley or San Francisco. This has helped keep Pittsburgh's educated young population growing even as the entire population in the city has dropped.Pittsburgh has more STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) jobs than other shrinking cities, about 80, 000 or 7% of all jobs. STEM jobs add productivity and income growth to the area. Manufacturers of high-tech medical equipment in the Pittsburgh area also have doubled employment in the last 10 years.However, some experts question whether growing income per capita can really make up for a declining population. According to Patrick Adler, a researcher at the University of Toronto, population loss does matter if it means lower-skilled workers have fled because of a lack of opportunity. What's more, high-paying jobs in education and health care can disappear if the population declines too greatly. So it'd be wise to find ways to increase the population.12. In what aspect does Pittsburgh set a good example?A. Transforming old energy into new energy.B. Creating more well-paid jobs.C. Prohibiting the manufacturing.D. Sponsoring higher education.13. How do some academic institutions help with the local economy?A. By helping to attract more talents from other areas.B. By providing much technical support to local companies.C. By hosting tech centers for local educated graduates.D. By assisting in employing a large number of educated youths.14. Why is Patrick Adler mentioned in the last paragraph?A. To show the disadvantage of a declining population.B. To suggest increasing high-paying jobs.C. To raise doubts about growing income per capita.D. To tell a reason why lower-skilled workers flee.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. How Fast Job Growth Is Related to Population GrowthB. How Less-crowded Cities Plan Their High-tech EconomyC. Why Some Cities Are Losing People but Getting WealthierD. Why Some Cities Are Suffering From a Shrinking Population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 Special and the Ordinary．BIt was a dinner party from hell（地狱）．Not because of the lovely guests．The problem was that they were all experts in cooking．And they were all waiting for a pudding（布丁）I had cooked for them．I lifted my spoon high above the poached（水煮）peach and readied myself for it to sink easily into the peach．Instead the spoon bent at the neck．The fruit was hard，even though it had been cooked for an hour．It was my stupid mistake．Over the past two years or so，I have passed judgment on the cooking skills of over 100 chefs （厨师）．I thought it could now be fun to get some chefs to pass judgment on me．Little did I know what I was letting myself in for．The starter was a French onion pie．It's a classic dish and would be a test of my skills．And it's the only cooked starter I know how to do．Next，the main course．My wife suggested doing the lamb（羔羊肉）thing first．I agreed．It' s a good dinner party dish because even if you overcook the meat，it's still a pleasure．The lamb is filled with a mixture of small pieces of bread，tomatoes，olives and so on．The only problem is that in this condition the meat has to come out pink，which fortunately it did．As to the pudding，I would do peaches poached in Muscat wine with cream．There was only one problem that I had forgotten that peaches were out of season and much like rocks．What did the guest chefs say about my cooking ability？"With all good dinner parties，as with the best restaurants，the food is by no means the only important thing and it was exciting that the party combined great diners and my host's generosity．And the food？As it happens，it was really rather good---should have had a cheese course though．And the plates could have been hotter．"4.What did the author mean by saying it was "a dinner party from hell"？______A. The guests were knowledgeable about cookingB. He was hopelessly disorganizedC. The guests were not welcomedD. He failed to make a pudding5.Why did the author hold the dinner party？______A. To advertise his restaurantB. To find out how it felt to be judgedC. To express his thanks to the 100 chefsD. To ask for opinions about his new dish6.What was the key to the success of the lamb dish？______A. Getting the cooking time right．B. Seasoning the lamb properlyC. Mixing the food in orderD. Using the right cooker7.What was the author's problem according to the guests' judgment？______A. He had presented the meal improperlyB. He had missed out an important dishC. He had served the food on hot platesD. He had bought fruit out of seasonCEvery year，about 75，000 Great White Pelicans fly away from Eastern Europe's cold winter to East Africa，where they spend the summer．It's a long journey and the main stop is in Israel．The Great White Pelican is a huge bird．It's thelargest bird in the world to make such a long journey．Its diet is mainly fish and it eats about 1.4 kilos each day．The pelicans love to gather in large numbers．Until recent years，there were plenty of water supplies （供给）in Israel．Frequently，the pelicans arrive in Israel tired．They cannot continue their long journey until they have rested．However，for a variety of reasons，these water supplies have dried up and the pelicans have had to find other food sources．Fish farming has become big business in Israel．As you may imagine，a fish farm is something pelicans could usually only dream of! In the summer months when the Great White Pelicans passed through，Israel's fish farmers began to lose tons of fish．Some farms were even forced to close their business．Something had to be done．The Israel Ministry of Agriculture considered the problem carefully．How could it stop 75，000 huge pelicans from arriving in Israel？It decided this was not possible．It chose a place with a plentiful supply of water，and provided money for local farmers to buy food，which they fed to the pelicans．The pelicans soon understood this and now arrive at the place to feed and rest．They no longer have to rely on the fish farms for food．It's a solution that seems to have worked．At one point，it looked as if the Ministry would stop the money．One criticism （批评）was that with so much food，the pelicans would never leave and would become even more expensive．However，there was such outcry from environmentalists and farmers that the money remains．Perhaps their large numbers in Israel will attract birdwatchers from all over the world to visit the amazing sight，and tourism can bring new income to the country．8.What can we learn about Great White Pelicans？______A. They are loners．B. They winter in Israel．C. They are good at long-distance flying．D. They reduce their intake during their journey．9.What problem did the fish farmers face？______A. The pelicans damaged the local environment．B. Their farms were closed by the government．C. The water supplies were not enough．D. They suffered a heavy loss of fish．10.What measures did the government take？______A. They prevented the pelicans stopping in Israel．B. They encouraged farmers to develop tourism．C. They gave farmers money to farm more fish．D. They found a new place for the pelicans．11.What is the author's attitude to the pelicans in Israel？______A. Optimistic．B. Unclear．C. Doubtful．D. Unconcerned．DNo one can deny （否认）that LeBron James gets paid a lot of money ---but no one can deny that he hasn't earned it either．He's broken the records of greats like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson．He's a talent（天才）．Professional athletes like LeBron give their lives to their sport to --- training，traveling，and pushing themselves to the limit．And while their lives may seem glamorous，think about this ：Athletes face injuries that can be not only career-ending but also life-changing．In fact，many retired（退休的）athletes have long-term health problems because of how hard they push on their bodies．Retired New York Jets player Wesley Walker said that he suffered so much pain as a result of playing football that today he can hardly open a water bottle．The toll （代价）a professional athlete's career takes on his or her body means more than a lifetime of pain （and medical bills）；it also means a short career．Athletes need pay that will carry them past the 5 to 15 years they are able to play．Without the showstopping performances of stars like Serena Williams and Stephen Curry，many jobs wouldn't exist．Sports reporters，stadium workers，cheerleaders，and coaches are among those who can thank the professional sports industry for their employment．It may seem unfair that athletes get paid to play a game，but remember who they are really playing for：us．We're the ones who fill stadiums in rain and snow to watch their games，who crowd around the television to cheer them on，and who feel immeasurable joy when our team wins．The work of professional athletes certainly pays off for us．Shouldn't it pay off for them too？12.What does the underlined word "glamorous" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？______A. Difficult．B. Tiresome．C. Attractive．D. Organized．13.Which of the following'may the author agree with？______A. Professional athletes have no idea about their limits．B. Injuries are a problem for professional athletes．C. Retired professional athletes are badly treated．D. Professional athletes'careers are short．14.What is the author's attitude to athletes'high salaries？______A. Doubtful．B. Surprised．C. Support1ve．D. Unconcerned．15.What is the best title for the text？______A. The most impressive athletesB. You can't put a price on talentC. You shouldn't push athletes hardD. Salaries in the professional sports industry二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）What does it really mean to be successful？(1) ．It is about being able to live a happy life．If you want to have a successful life，here are three things you need to focus on．© Believe in yourselfIf you don't believe in yourself，how do you expect other people to？When you believe in yourself，it fuels （促进）your creativity and your motivation （动力）to do things．All successful people from Gandhi to Tesla believed in themselves．(2) ．We all have to trust that we have the ability to turn the impossible into the possible．© Know your intention(3) ，it is important to have an understanding of your intention．If your intention is simply rooted in money and fame，you are never going to truly feel successful．Money and fame only serve the ego （自负）and don't provide true feelings of success．For a truly successful life，your intention has to be rooted in your purpose and passions （热情）．When your intention is to serve your purpose，make a change in the world and express your talents，you will feeltrue success and satisfaction．© (4)Success is all around you right now．Stop to take a moment and you'll notice the amazing success that is already present in your life．(5) ．Being thankful for the tiniest successes in life will help you to create more and more success．A．Realize you are already successfulB．Discover the true meaning of successC．This is what gave them the drive to succeedD．If you want to create a good living conditionE．When it comes to achieving greatness in this lifeF．That is when you will start to feel truly successfulG．Success is so much more than just money or fame16.

Feb．18BFor the past few months，my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour every week learning a foreign language．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 Spanishcow，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 （pequeno）．She tells us little about the classes．In fact，for the first few weeks，nothing at all．I 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．She shouts vaca with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent．The wisn to enroll（使…加入）her in language lessons came，like most things，gradually and then in a sudden rush．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）9 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）．But there were no classes for young children nearby ・There were，however，local Spanish classes--the number-one language on the list．When she started to sing "Incy Wincy Spider" in Spanish and English一helped by a Spanish nursery worker一our decision was made．4.What can we learn about the author's daughter from the first paragraph？______A.

Her great interest．C. The nursery worker's suggestion．D. The fast-growing economy．C"You know，the soft subjects，" says the boy in maths．"The easy ones：the stupid girls at the bottom take them・Like dance・It shouldn't even be a subject．" We，re choosing subjects for our A- level taster day at school．I see the raised eyebrows （眉毛）when I explain two of my GCSE （General Certificate of Secondary Education）choices are dance and drama （戏剧）．I was told by advisers that dance and drama wouldn't help me to get a suitable career・My friends told me Fd get bored of dance and switch to science within the first month．But taking GCSE dance was the best decision I ever made・Dance gives me something to pour my head and heart into．It gives me a feeling of belonging，creativity，security and freedom・The education secretary Nicky Morgan has put emphasis on （强调）science，technology，engineering and maths （STEM），saying that students who focus on the arts risk their careers ・Stopping young people from expressing themselves at such a young age is not doing them any favours．Perhaps Nicky Morgan has forgotten to open the door of having a drive to study that subject day in，day out．It shouldn't matter what that subject is．I don't doubt the influence that STEM subjects can have on the people that love them．But to force children into one field is cruel．As much as I try，Um not good at and donlove physics，biology or ma ths．I don't want a career in these areas．There has been a decrease in the number of state schools offering arts subjects taught by specialist teachers．I can't even imagine how it feels to be told that you don't teach a "real subject" by an 8-year-old boy．To the teachers，the parents，the government I say：Let children make their own decisions．Let them live in the present・Let them have a real，unlimited education．8.How does the boy in maths feel about dance？______A.

She allows students to express themselves freely．11.What's the present situation of arts subjects？______A. They attract much attention worldwide．B. They are taught by non-professionals．C. They are considered less important．D. They have made great progress．DSome years ago，Michel-Andre found himself staring at the body of a dead whale on a beach in the Canary Islands・It was obvious that the animal had been struck violently by a ship--but why？Only later，after surveying the whales which lived in the area and measuring the increase of sound pollution from ships did it become clear that there was a link．The whales had become desensitised to the noise of approaching boats and were being struck by them，often seriously．"We never thought that this could be something that could kill，" recalls （回忆）Andre，who is the director of the Laboratory of Applied Bioacoustics at the Technical University of Catalonia，Barcelona．Andre has spent 20 years developing an advanced system to better understand why incidents like this happen．His underwater microphones have exposed a world of deafening sound and animal communication never observed with such clarity （清晰）before．It was not an easy task．Sound waves don't travel through water in the uniform，predictable way they do through the air．Instead，the temperature，salinity （盐度）and，flow of water have great effects on their path．What can be done？One solution is to change shipping routes to courses where ships are statistically less likely to meet animals．It's also possible to slow ships down to 18km/h or less，which is less likely to seriously injure a whale．As for dealing with the root cause of the problem，the UN's International Maritime Organisation has already published guidelines on how to quieten ships，but it will be a while before the effects of such changes might be observed．"The ocean is not our world，" comments Andre．But it is ours to look after．And thanks to his work，we can better understand the effects of subsea sound pollution．12.What does the underlined word "desensitised" in Paragraph 2 mean？______A. Stubborn．B. Flexible．C. Dull．D. Friendly．13.What's one way to solve the problem according to the text？______A. To lower the speed of ships．B. To reduce the number of ships．C. To set up preserves under the sea．D. To give the injured animals timely treatment．14.What is the author's attitude towards what Michel Andre has done？______A. Doubtful．B. Disapproving．C. Positive．D. Uncaring．15.What is the text mainly about？______A. A great expert．B. Noise in the sea．C. Animals in the sea．D.
