2020届上海市嘉定区第一中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ADive with Big SharksOur shark dive adventures make use of hookah systems and shark cages. A hookah system is a system of providing air from the surface to divers down below. Cage divers breathe by using a regulator connected to an air hose.Is SharkDiving Dangerous?Yes. You could get sunburnt. You could hit your head on the top bunk getting out of bed. You could fall overboard. As for a shark attack,according to the International Shark Attack File,you are far more likely to be killed by a dog or a deer.Pricing & DetailsOne day Cage Diver Adventure S 875Our expert shark diver team will accompany you to the best viewing areas within the Marine Sanctuary.There,we'll drop our cage and prepare to provide you with a view you'll never forget.No dive experience is necessary.Our cages sit just below the surface.You'll be able to breathe comfortably from your snorkel or air hose while you move about the cage,taking photos and having fun.Top Shark Adventure S 375If you want to see great white sharks but prefer them a little further away,we offer great top-side shark viewing from our observation deck. Help scan the horizon for fins and watch for sharks attacking their prey（猎物）.Important NoteThere's No Shark GuaranteeAlthough we go to the best places at the best time of year, we cannot guarantee you'll see sharks. We've been very successful in past shark seasons and expect another incredible year. However, if we see nosharks, there is no refund.1.Which of the following isTRUEabout the two adventures?A.Top Shark Adventure makes use of hookah systems.B.Cage Diver Adventure offers you a view of the bottom of the sea.C.Cage Diver Adventure is less interesting than the other.D.Top Shark Adventure is suitable for those worried about danger.2.What is most likely to happen according to the advertisement?A.you fail to achieve your purpose of the trip.B.you are out of breath deep down in the sea.C.you are hurt by a shark while diving there,D.you suffer from lack of skill in shark diving.3.It can be inferred from the advertisement that shark diving is ________A.difficult but excitingB.challenging and tiringC.amazing and enjoyableD.expensive but popularB"Long time no see." is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend's e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar and structure! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research onGoogle. com. To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing "Long time no see." Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan's movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective named "Charlie Chan" on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. "Long time no see." was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, "Long time no see." became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.Some scholars compare America to a hugemelting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the colour and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.You can have some examples from other countries such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American's melting potkeeps adding richness and flavour.4. What did the writer himself feel surprised at?A. The Chinglish expression "Long time no see."B. So many literal translations of the expressions used in America.C. "Long time no see." is used as a standard American English greeting.D. Finding out Americans use the expression every day.5. What do the underlined words "melting pot" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Confucius's words.B. Culture mixture.C. A kind of cooked dish.D. American changing cultures.6. According to the passage, what can be inferred?A. Detectives translated the phrase "Long time no see."B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.C. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.D. Hollywood made "Long time no see." popular.7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Some Chinese expressions are introduced into English.B. You'll not be surprised at a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant in America.C. Some American expressions can be used in China.D. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.CHave you ever noticed that some people can eat what they want and stay in shape, while others carefully watch what they eat and still put on weight? How annoying! However, scientists are beginning to believe that some people get the ability to stay thin from their parents.Scientists say that when some people eat, their bodies will naturally store the excess energy from food as fat. These people gain weight if they eat more than they need each day. Meanwhile, other people eat more than they need but their bodies are able to “burn off” the extra food without making fat, so they rarely have weight problems.To show that this is true, scientists have experimented on laboratory mice. They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat. Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise. Scientists concluded that weight gain seemed tobe influenced by genetic (基因的) factors. They also believe they have now identified the genes that may cause this tendency. These genes, according to the scientists, get passed down the generations. Armed with this knowledge, they believe it may be possible to develop medicines thatcan target the genes and stop people from gaining weight.The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the numbers of people who are overweight continues to grow. In theUnited States, over seventy percent of the population have weight problems. This means they are at risk of illness such as high blood pressure and heart disease.Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects, such as heart problems. However, it takes a long time to develop and thoroughly test new drugs. Therefore, despite this breakthrough in the study of weight-loss drugs, scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy, balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise. This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight, but also help them stay healthy and energetic.8. According to the scientists, some people ________.A. are able to stay thin because of genetic factorsB. can eat what they want and stay healthy foreverC. usually keep doing exercise to lose their weightD. don’t eat anything every day but still put on weight9. Some people don’t need to worry about weight problems because ________.A. they eat many vegetablesB. they eat less than othersC. they don’t store any energy from food as fatD. they can burn off the extra food without making fat10. What can we learn from the passage?A. Fewer people will have weight problems in the future.B. People with weight problems may suffer from heart trouble.C. We now have good medicine for people with weight problems.D. The result of the experiments on mice and humans are different.11. What does the last paragraph imply?A. Current medicine solve weight problems well.B. We should exercise regularly and eat properly.C. Taking exercise every day may cause heart problems.D. Testing new drugs is hard because of the side effects.DHappiness is not a warm phone, according to anew study exploring the link between young life satisfaction and screen time. The study was led by professor of psychology Jean M. Twenge at San Diego State University (SDSU).To research this link, Twenge, along with colleagues Gabrielle Martin at SDSU and W. Keith Campbell at the University of Georgia, dealt with data from the Monitoring the Future (MtF) study, a nationally representative survey of more than a million U. S. 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-graders. The survey asked students questions about how often they spent time on their Phones, tablets and computers, as well as questions about their face-to-face social interactions and their overall happiness.On average found that teens who spent more time in front of screen devices — playing computer games, using social media, texting and video chatting — were less happy than those who invested more time in non-screen activities like sports, reading newspapers and magazines, and face-to-face social interactions."The key to digital media use and happiness is limited use," Twenge said. "Aim to spend no more than two hours a day on digital media, and try to increase the amount of time you spend seeing friends face-to-face and exercising — two activities reliably linked to greater happiness."Looking at historical trends from the same age groups since the 1990s, it's easy to find that the increase of screen devices over time happened at the same time as a general drop-off in reported happiness inU. S.teens. Specifically, young peopled life satisfaction and happiness declined sharply after 2012. That's the year when the percentage of Americans who owned a smartphone rose above 50 percent. By far the largest change in teens' lives between 2012 and 2016 was the increase in the amount of time they spent on digital media, and the following decline in in-person social activities and sleep.12. Which method did Twenge's team use for the study?A. Calculating students' happiness.B. Asking students certain questions.C. Analyzing data from a survey.D. Doing experiments on screen time.13. How does the author develop the finding of the study in paragraph 3?A. By making a comparison.B. By giving an example.C. By making an argument.D. By introducing a concept.14. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To draw a conclusion from the study.B. To offer some advice to the readers.C. To prove social activities' importance.D. To support the researchers' finding.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Quitting Phones Equals HappinessB. Screen Time Should Be BannedC. Teens' Lives Have Changed SharplyD. Screen-addicted Teens Are Unhappier第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Recent development has made possiblemachines that print, cook, and serve foods o n a mass scale. And the industryisn’t stopping there.Food productionWith a 3D printer, a cook canprint complicated chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on awedding cake. Not everybody can do that — it takes years of experience, buta printer makes it easy. A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to”re-create forms and pieces” of food that are “exactly thesame,” freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In another restaurant, allof the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed, rather than farm to table.SustainabilityThe global population is expectedto grow to 9.6 billion by 2050, and some analysts estimate that food productionwill need to be raised by 50 percent to maintain current levels. Sustainabilityis becoming a necessity. 3D food printing could probably contribute to thesolution. Some experts believe printers could use hydrocolloids from plentiful renewables like algae and grass to replace the familiar ingredients. 3D printing can reduce fuel use and emissions. Grocery stores of the future might stock “food” that lasts years on end, freeing upshelf space and reducing transportation and storage requirements.NutritionFuture 3D food printers couldmake processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University,said, “Food printing could allow consumers to print food with customizednutritional content, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterday’sbread from the supermarket, you’d eat something baked just for you ondemand.”ChallengesDespite recent advancements in3D food printing, the industry has many challenges to overcome. Currently, mostingredients must be changed to a paste before a printer can use them,and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interactwith each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D foodprinters now are restricted to dry ingredients, because meat and milk productsmay easily go bad. Some experts are skeptical about 3D food printers, believingthey are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-endrestaurants.（1）What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?A . It helps cooks to create new dishes.B . It saves time and effort in cooking.C . It improves the cooking conditions.D . It contributes to restaurant decorations.（2）What can we learn about 3D food printing from Paragraphs 3?A . It solves food shortages easily.B . It quickens the transportation of food.C . It needs no space for the storage of food.D . It uses renewable materials as sources of food.（3）According to Paragraph 4, 3D-printed food ________.A . is more available to consumersB . can meet individual nutritionalneedsC . is more tasty than food in supermarketsD . can keep all the nutrition in raw materials（4）What is the main factor that prevents 3D food printing from spreading widely?A . The printing process is complicated.B . 3D food printers are too expensive.C . Food materials have to be dry.D . Some experts doubt 3D food printing.（5）What could be the best title of the passage?A . 3D Food Printing: Delicious New TechnologyB . A New Way to Improve 3D Food PrintingC . The Challenges for 3D Food ProductionD . 3D Food Printing: From Farm to Table19. 阅读理解Failure is probably the most exhaustingexperience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this tiredness intwo ways: as start-up fatigue and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keepputting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And thelonger we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is veryreal, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle themost difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, Idetermined to write them in alphabetical, never letting myself leaveout a tough idea. And I always startedthe day’s work with the difficult taskof essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is moredifficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do thejob right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we failagain and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can-then let theunconscious take over.When planning EncyclopaediaBritannica , I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of itsarticles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after dat I keptcoming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almostunbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, Iwrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried toconvince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me.Relived, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke upsuddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, thesolution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at everystep. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now asexciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe musttry to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.（1）People with start-up fatigue are most likely to .A . delay tasksB . work hardC . seek helpD . accept failure（2）What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A . Writing essays in strict order.B . Building up physical strength.C .Leaving out the toughest ideas.D . Dealing with the hardest task first.（3）On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?A . Before starting a difficult task.B . When all the solutions fail.C . If the job is rather boring.D . After finding a way out.（4）According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us .A . ignore mental problemsB . get some nice sleepC . gain complete reliefD . find the right solution（5）What could be the best title for the passage?A . Success Is Built upon FailureB . How to Handle Performance FatigueC . Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD . Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems20. 阅读理解A scientist working at her lab bench and asix-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. Afterall, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature ofthe physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps,but some developmental psychologists have argued that this “play” is morelike a scientific invest igation than one might think.Take a closer look at the babyplaying at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge,it falls in the ground---and, in the process, it belongs out important evidenceabout how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not flood in mid-sit, butrequire support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowingthe basic fact of the universe; nor are they everclearly taught it. Instead,babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experimentsand then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact.Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and thescientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim, overall approach , and logic.Some psychologists suggest thatyoung children learn about more than just the physical world in this way---thatthey investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similarmeans. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering,and finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea thatother people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, forexample, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood developmentas a scientific investigation throws on how children learn, but it also offersan inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children andscientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that scienceas an effort ---the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world---issimply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided humanbabies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adultscientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. Thesame cognitive systems that make young children feel good about feel good aboutfiguring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As somepsychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientis ts butthat scientists are big children.”（1）According to some developmental psychologists .A . a baby’s play is nothing more than a gameB . scientific research into babies; games is possibleC . the nature of babies’ play has been thoroughly investigatedD . a baby’s play is somehow similar to a scientist’s experiment （2）We learn from Paragraph 2 that .A . scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB . scientists and babies often interact with each otherC . babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD . babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do（3）Children may learn the rules of language by .A . exploring the physical worldB . investigating human psychologyC . repeating their own experimentsD . observing their parents’ behaviors （4）What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A . The world may be more clearly explained through children’s play.B . Studying babies’ play may lead to a better understanding of science.C . Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists.D . One’s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.（5）What is the author’s tone when he discusses the connection between scientists’ research and babies’ play?A . Convincing.B . Confused.C . Confidence.D . Cautious.四、任务型阅读（本大题共5小题，共10分）21. 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
