AMovie theaters around the world have closed during the coronations outbreak. Fortunately, there's never been a better time to catch up on classic old movies. Below, read our picks for best travel movies:‘Thelma and Louise'(1991)“Thelma and Louise,” is a tale of female friendship, and the screen is dominated by the film's two lead females.

The route is from Piedmont via Rome to Amalfi, back to Naples and finally the tony island of Capri.

Nowadays six Amazon Scout delivery robots rolled out in a pilot program in Snohomish County, Wash． The robots carry meals, groceries and packages to homes and offices in this region just north of Seattle． They have appeared on the sidewalks of London, Beijing and other cities and communities worldwide． These machines must overcome pedestrian legs, naughty dogs and broken pavement, which raises some questions．These services are gaining attraction as a growing number of city residents expect immediate or scheduled delivery for just about everything． Between 2017 and 2018 online retail sales in the U．S． increased by 16 percent． On the final step of all these deliveries, called the last mile, humans on bicycles, motorized scooters （电动车） or large delivery trucks typically deliver packages． All the vehicles compete for space on busy urban streets．“Deliveries are trending upwards in all crowded city centers, and if city and state leaders don’t start thinking about creative solutions like robot deliveries, we can expect even worse traffic jams, ” says Paul Mackie, director of a transportation policy research center in Arlington．A study by this center found 73 percent of delivery vehicles in Arlington were parked outside of authorized areas, often blocking bike lanes and crosswalks． By moving the last step of deliveries from the road to the sidewalk, cities could reduce traffic jams and solve the parking problem entirely, Mackie says．Companies such as Amazon are not developing this delivery technology simply to clear up urban traffic． Self﹣driving vehicles and sidewalk robots could cut down last﹣mile delivery costs in cities by as much as 40 percent, according to a 2018 report by a consultancy firm． A delivery robot can cost thousands of dollars to manufacture, and most currently require human management and conservation． But in the long run companies that use autonomous delivery vehicles in the next several years could end up saving billions of dollars, the report stated．（1）Why does Amazon introduce delivery robots？________A.

Unacceptable．【答案】CDBC【考点】说明文阅读科教类阅读【解析】本文是一篇科普类短文阅读．文章主要介绍亚马逊引进送货机器人以帮助缓解交通压力，节约配送成本．【解答】（1）C．推理判断题．根据文章第二段These services are gaining attraction as a growing number of city residents expect immediate or scheduled delivery for just about everything．可知，随着越来越多的城市居民希望几乎所有东西都能立即或按计划交付，这些服务越来越有吸引力，从而可以推断出，亚马逊要引入送货机器人其目的是以满足日益增长的包裹投递需求．故选C．（2）D．细节理解题．根据文章第二段Deliveries are trending upwards in all crowdedcity centers，and if city and state leaders don’t start thinking about creative solutions like robot deliveries， we can expect even worse traffic jams Paul

2020届山东省青岛市高考英语一模试题第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分37.5分）第一节：（共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5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．1．（7.5分）Our 3﹣day tour along the South Coast has it all!Stunning landscapes，the Golden Circle，ice caves，the Jokulsarlon Iceberg Lagoon and Northern Lights watching．On the way we see waterfalls，volcanoes，floating icebergs，cliffs，black sand beaches，geysers，hot springs and so much more．There are even

guidance，2 nights accommodation，glacier﹣hiking/ice﹣caving equipment，super jeep ride for some km，specialized guide to ice cave，entrance fees and northern lights（depending on conditions，visible from

hiking boots，waterproof jacket and pants in the booking process．Ice Cave information：Our main cave is "Crystal Ice Cave"，but if it is inaccessible we will visit another cave．During the summer

three，depending on weather and road conditions．Contact us：If you have a question about this tour you can use the contact form here below．If you have a general

health newspaper．B．A science fiction．C．A travel website．D．A project handbook．2．（10分）In recent years，stressed﹣out people living in cities have been seeking protection in green spaces for the proven positive impacts on physical and mental health，but the benefits of "blue space"﹣the sea and coastline，but also rivers，lakes，canals，waterfalls，even fountains﹣are less well advertised，yet the science has been consistent for at least a decade：being by water is good for body and mind．"Many of the processes are exactly the same as with green space﹣with some added benefits，"says Dr Mathew White，a senior lecturer at the University of Exeter．White says there are three established pathways by which the presence of water is positively related to health and happiness．First，there are the beneficial environmental factors，such as less polluted air and more sunlight．Second，people who live by water tend to be more physically active．Third﹣and this is where blue space seems to have an advantage over other natural environments﹣water has a psychological recovery effect．When you are sailing，surfing or swimming，says White，"you're really in step with natural forces there．"Catherine Kelly is a wellness practitioner who teaches classes in "mindfulness by the sea"．She says the sea has a quality that can make people thoughtful．"To go to the sea means letting go，" says Kelly．"It could be lying on a beach or somebody handing you a cocktail．For somebody else，it could be a wild，empty coast．But there is this reallyhuman sense of："Oh，look，there's the sea﹣and the shoulders drop．"（1）Why are blue spaces less popular than green spaces？A．Because green spaces are good to people's health．B．Because little research has been done on blue spaces．C．Because green spaces have more benefits than blue spaces．D．Because the benefits of green spaces are better advertised．（2）Where is blue space superior to other natural environments according to White？A．Where there's water，there's fresh air．B．People living near water are healthier．C．Water can help people restore mental health．D．The sea can make people lost in deep thought．（3）What can we learn from the last paragraph？A．The sea will bring you loneliness．B．The sea will hurt your shoulder．C．The sea will put you at ease．D．The sea will make you feel down．（4）What does the author mainly want to tell us？A．People in cities prefer green spaces．B．Blue spaces help both physically and mentally．C．Green spaces have been out of date．D．Ways to keep us healthy．3．（10分）Kevin Randall，a teacher，who teaches biology at Grandville High School，runs the environmental club at the high school，which has around 2，000 students．The club is known as the GHS Green Team，and it aims to raise awareness among students and teachers about sustainability （持续性）．It also works on projects to reduce the environmental footprint of the building itself．One of the club's recent projects focused on reducing waste in the school cafeteria．Randall said their cafeteria supervisor told them that the school went through 54，000 plastic forks every year．The club applied for a financial help，built recycling centers for the cafeteria，and purchased metal silverware．And now every student uses a durable metal fork or a spoon instead of disposables（一次性用品），"and that's just one way we're trying to capture the low﹣hanging fruit，if you will，" Randall said．The efforts of Randall and his students have earned Grandville High School the Michigan Green School certification from the state．In addition to their work reducing waste in the cafeteria，the GHS Green Team has also built a garden with flowers and vegetables on campus，and leads cleanups on site and out in the community．Over the years，Randall and his students have also been working on raising money to install solar panels（太阳能板）on the roof of the high school．Randall said he was motivated to take the lead on environmental issues for his school because he wanted his students to have someone to turn to in the building who understands what's at stake （利害攸关）when it comes to climate change．"And I also felt like I needed to do more in my life for my own two children at home，" Randall added，"They need to know that their dad is working as hard as he can to reduce the effects of climate change，and to spread the word，and to make sure that other students out there are learning about this just the way they are at home．"（1）What is the purpose of the GHS Green Team club？A．To inspire students' love for biology．B．To finish the projects assigned by school．C．To prepare students for their future jobs．D．To promote environmental protection．（2）What's the result of the project on school cafeteria？A．It has changed the outlook of the cafeteria．B．Students can have more fruits in the cafeteria．C．Plastic forks are no longer used in the cafeteria．D．The school has become famous nationwide．（3）What's the fourth paragraph mainly about？A．The classification of the projects．B．The characteristics of the club．C．The activities organized by the club．D．The future of the club．（4）What was Randall's aim by doing the work on environmental issues？A．To educate the young．B．To get material rewards．C．To amuse his children．D．To make himself famous．4．（10分）Hybrid cars are cars that run on both petrol and electricity．They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery and electric motor to provide electric power．There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars，but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol，and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required，for example when going uphill or accelerating．In some hybrid cars the petrol engine turns itself off when not needed，for example when the car has stopped at traffic lights，keeping only the electric engine running．Conventional cars have large engines to cope with driving uphill and accelerating．Most of the time，this high engine capacity is not needed，but the engine continues burning up fuel．Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines，boosted by electric motors when needed，so they use less petrol．Hybrid cars are also lighter and aerodynamically（空气动力学的）designed for greater fuel efficiency．Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of"regenerative braking（刹车）"．The electric motor is used to slow down the car，rather than conventional brakes．The energy produced by the slowing car is transformed into electrical power，which is automatically stored in the battery．In effect，the battery recharges when you brake．In conventional cars the energy produced when braking is wasted．Car manufacturers and engineers have been experimenting with electric and hybrid cars since the late 19th century．In 1928 Ferdinand Porsche built an experimental hybrid car that used both an internal burning engine and electric motors．The first mass﹣produced hybrid car，the Toyota Prius，came out in Japan at the end of 1997．However，Hybrid cars became available in the USA only in 1999，when the Honda Insight went on sale．As they use less fuel，hybrid cars are cheaper to run．There are also many initiatives in place to encourage people to buy them．In some countries，hybrid car owners pay a lower rate of tax，anddon't have to pay on certain toll roads（收费公路）．In some cities around the world，hybrid cars are allowed to park for free．（1）What can we learn from paragraph 2？A．Hybrid cars don't need petrol any more．B．Petrol engine and electric motor work all the way．C．Hybrid cars mainly depend on electric power to run．D．Some hybrid car petrol engines will quit when unnecessary．（2）Which is NOT the reason why hybrid cars consume less energy？A．Smaller petrol engines．B．Scientific design．C．Conventional brakes．D．Energy storage．（3）What can we infer from the last paragraph？A．Hybrid cars are cheaper to buy．B．Hybrid car owners don't have to pay tax．C．Hybrid car owners don't need to pay parking fee．D．Hybrid cars will have a bright future．（4）What's the author's purpose of writing the passage？A．To advertise hybrid cars．B．To introduce hybrid cars．C．To compare conventional cars and hybrid cars．D．To inform the development of hybrid cars．第二节（共1小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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．（12.5分）One truth about modern life is that nobody has any time．（1）So let's try a simple thought experiment．Imagine that you came into possession of a magical new set of technologies that could automate or promote every single part of your job．（2）Maybe you'd pick up a hobby，or have more children，or learn to relax and enjoy yourself in the additional leisure．But what if I told you that you wouldn't do any of those things：You would just work the exact same amount of time as before．（3）But there are simple reasons for this．Better technology means higher expectations﹣and higher expectations create more work．For most of history，humans were forced to suffer from their own dirty and unpleasant substances．Most families' clothes were washed twice a year．The fleet of housework technologies that came into the world suddenly between the late﹣19th and mid﹣20th century created new norms（标准）of cleanliness ﹣for our floors，our clothes，ourselves．（4）Automatic washers and dryers raised our expectations for clean clothes and encouraged people to go out and buy new shirts and pants；housewives therefore had more loads of laundry to wash，dry，and fold．In short，technology made it much easier to clean a house to 1890s standards．（5）They wanted a modern home﹣with dustless windowsills（窗台）and shiny floors﹣and this dustless shiny required a 40﹣to﹣50﹣hour workweek，even with the assistance of modern tools．A．You are wasting your time．B．This might seem impossible．C．New norms meant more work．D．What would you do with the extra time？E．That means you can have more time to relax．F．Everybody is busy，burned out，overloaded．G．But by mid﹣century，Americans didn't want that old house．第二部分语言运用（共两节，满分15分）第一节：完形填空（共1小题；每小题15分，满分15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．6．（15分）The victims were carried in one by one，their paws and fur burned，suffering from

Coho Creek．As I emerged from a forest，I froze in my tracks．No more than 20 paces away in the bog（泥塘）was a huge Alaskan timber wolf﹣caught in one of Trapper George's traps．Old George had died the previous week of a heart attack，so the wolf was lucky．Confused and frightened at my approach，the wolf backed away，pulling hard on the trap chain．Then I noticed something else：It was a female，and her teats（奶头）were full of milk．Somewhere there was aden（窝）of hungry pups waiting for their mother．From her appearance，I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days．That meant her pups were probably still alive．But I suspected that if I tried to release the wolf，she would turn aggressive and try to tear me to pieces．So I decided to search for her pups instead and began to look for incoming tracks that might lead me to her den．Fortunately，there were still a few remaining patches of snow．The tracks led a half mile through the forest，and I finally spotted the den．There wasn't a sound inside．Wolf pups are shy and cautious，and I didn't have much hope of tricking them outside．But I had to try．So I began copying the squeak（吱吱声）of a mother wolf calling her young．No response．A few moments，later，after I tried again，four tiny pups appeared．I extended my hands，and they tentatively（试探性地）suckled at my fingers．Perhaps hunger had helped overcome their natural fear．Then，one by one，I placed them in a bag and headed back．When the mother wolf spotted me，she stood straight．Possibly picking up the scent（气味）of her young，she let out a sorrow﹣stricken crying．I released the pups，and they raced to her．Within seconds，they were slurping（啜食）at her belly．注意：1．所续写的短文的词数应为150左右；2．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好．Paragraph 1：What next？I wondered．_________Paragraph 2：Four years later，I returned to Coho

D．A project handbook.In recent years,stressed-out people living in cities have been seeking protection in green spaces for the proven positive impacts on physical and mental health,but the benefits of"blue space"-the sea and coastline,but also rivers,lakes,canals,waterfalls,even fountains-are less well advertised, yet the science has been consistent for at least a decade:being by water is good for body and mind.＂Many of the processes are exactly the same as with green space-with some added benefits," says Dr Mathew White,a senior lecturer at the University of Exeter.White says there are three established pathways by which the presence of water is positively related to health and happiness.First,there are the beneficial environmental factors,such as less polluted air and more sunlight.Second,people who live by water tend to be more physically active. Third-and this is where blue space seems to have an advantage over other natural environments-water has a psychological recovery effect.When you are sailing,surfing or swimming,says White,＂you're really in step with natural forces there."Catherine Kelly is a wellness practitioner who teaches classes in"mindfulness by the sea”.She says the sea has a quality that can make people thoughtful.＂To go to the sea means letting go,"says Kelly."It could be lying on a beach or somebody handing you a cocktail.For somebody else,it could be a wild,empty coast.But there is this really human sense of:'Oh, look,there's the sea-and the shoulders drop."4．Why are blue spaces less popular than green spaces?A．Because green spaces are good to people's health.B．Because little research has been done on blue spaces.C．Because green spaces have more benefits than blue spaces.D．Because the benefits of green spaces are better advertised.5．Where is blue space superior to other natural environments according to White? A．Where there's water,there's fresh air.B．People living near water are healthier.C．Water can help people restore mental health.D．The sea can make people lost in deep thought.6．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．The sea will bring you loneliness.B．The sea will hurt your shoulder.C．The sea will put you at ease.D．The sea will make you feel down.7．What does the author mainly want to tell us?A．People in cities prefer green spaces.B．Blue spaces help both physically and mentally.C．Green spaces have been out of date.D．Ways to keep us healthy.Kevin Randall, a teacher,who teaches biology at Grandville High School,runs the environmental club at the high school,which has around 2,000 students.The club is known as the GHS Green Team,and it aims to raise awareness among students and teachers about sustainability(持续性).It also works on projects to reduce the environmental footprint of the building itself.One of the club's recent projects focused on reducing waste in the schoolcafeteria.Randall said their cafeteria supervisor told them that the school went through 54,000 plastic forks every year.The club applied for a financial help,built recycling centers for the cafeteria,and purchased metal silverware.And now every student uses a durable metal fork or a spoon instead of disposables.(一次性用品),“and that's just one way we're trying to capture the low-hanging fruit,if you will,"Randall said.The efforts of Randall and his students have earned Grandville High School the Michigan Green School certification from the state.In addition to their work reducing waste in the cafeteria, the GHS Green Team has also built a garden with flowers and vegetables on campus,and leads cleanups on site and out in the community.Over the years,Randall and his students have also been working on raising money to install solar panels(太阳能板) on the roof of the high school.Randall said he was motivated to take the lead on environmental issues for his schoolbecause he wanted his students to have someone to turn to in the building who understands what's at stake(利害攸关）when it comes to climate change.＂And I also felt like I needed to do more in my life for my own two children at home," Randall added,"They need to know that their dad is working as hard as he can to reduce the effects of climate change,and to spread the word,and to make sure that other students out there are learning about this just the way they are at home."8．What is the purpose of the GHS Green Team club?A．To inspire students' love for biology.B．To finish the projects assigned by school.C．To prepare students for their future jobs.D．To promote environmental protection.9．What's the result of the project on school cafeteria?A．It has changed the outlook of the cafeteria.B．Students can have more fruits in the cafeteria.C．Plastic forks are no longer used in the cafeteria.D．The school has become famous nationwide.10．What's the fourth paragraph mainly about?A．The classification of the projects.B．The characteristics of the club.C．The activities organized by the club.D．The future of the club.11．What was Randall's aim by doing the work on environmental issues?.A．To educate the young.B．To get material rewards.C．To amuse his children.D．To make himself famous.Hybrid cars are cars that run on both petrol and electricity.They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery and electric motor to provide electric power.There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars,but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol,and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required,for example when going uphill or accelerating.In some hybrid cars the petrolengine turns itself off when not needed,for example when the car has stopped at traffic lights,keeping only the electric engine running.Conventional cars have large engines to cope with driving uphill and accelerating.Most of the time,this high engine capacity is not needed,but the engine continues burning up fuel.Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines,boosted by electric motors when needed,so they use less petrol.Hybrid cars are also lighter and aerodynamically(空气动力学的）designed for greater fuel efficiency.Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of"regenerative braking(刹车）＂。
