2019-2020学年湖北省宜昌市部分示范高中教学协作体联考高三(上)期中英语试卷一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe London Underground (The Tube)The main source of public transport in London revolves around the Underground (or the Tube as it is known to Londoners).This networkof 12 lines can get you to most places in the center of the city quickly.It's almost necessary to get an Oyster Card or a Travelcard.Single tickets are priced starting4.80(Zone1-3),if you pay cash.Using anat the intentionally absurd(荒谬的)price of £2.30 if you are traveling within the central Zone 1.Oyster Card, a single fare is £On hot days it is also advisable to take a bottle of water with you as Underground trains are notair-conditioned.Last trains leave central London at around 00:30 weekdays,23:30 Sundays.First trains leave the suburbs at around 5:00.The Bus SystemOutside the center of London,Tube Stations are farther apart,so buses help fill the gaps.Also,the bus offers a cheaper alternative,even if it is a slower journey.1.50 Cash fares for London buses have been abolished-you cannot pay cash.A bus fare costs £4.40 per day for Oyster or contactless cardif people only use buses,and the fare is capped at £users.Light Rail and TrainsYou can think of the Docklands Light Railway (DLR)and the Tramlink as extensions of the Underground,Travelcards purchased at Tube Stations in East London.The DLR connects with a number of the other train services (including connections at Tower Hill or Bank Stations)and can be used to reach Greenwich,Canary Wharf,and Stratford.River ServicesThere are a number of different routes along the River Thames,The faster commuter services operate all day from Greenwich Pier to Embankment and from Putney and Chelsea harbour to Blackfriars during Peak Hours only.These routes will pass a number of places of interest including the Houses of Parliament and London Bridge. A return fare from Putney to Blackfriars will cost about 12 pounds.National RailOnce you leave Central London or if you are traveling South of the River Thames,the best public transport option will often be National Rail.There are numerous connections to the Rail System from the Tube.Travelcards can be used for travel on the National Rail (but not the Heathrow Express).Oyster cards can be used up to Zone 6 except certain services including Heathrow Express,Heathrow Connect and HS1.1.When taking the London Underground,you ______ .A. should buy tickets with cashB. can go to any place in London quicklyC. can save more money with a single ticketD. are advised to take a bottle of water along on hot days2.If you use river services along the River Thames,you will pass ______ .A. London BridgeB. StratfordC. Canary WharfD. Tower Hill3.To travel South of the River Thames,it is recommended that you use ______ .A. the London UndergroundB. the Bus SystemC. the DLR and the TramlinkD. National RailBI never meant to be a teacher.I watched my mother over the years,and I knew it wasn't for me.Going back to school to learn French and then teach the language,our mother had changed the center of her world when we were pre-teens.I saw how hard our mother worked,the long hours she kept as she graded papers when we went to bed.I knew how worried she could be over her students when they were troubled and how much of their stress she took on herself.What I didn't realize was this life she'd chosen offered her deep rewards.As I grew up,I fell in love with a French-speaking Swiss man who asked me to marry him and move to Switzerland.Years later,when I found myself back in my hometown with a small child and a love of my second language, a chance arose for me to join my mother's world of education,and I accepted.I landed in a primary school in Rocky Mount,North Carolina.From the first week,I knew I'd stick with teaching.This is the most challenging experience I've ever had,and absolutely the best.I teach French,and I have never felt so much excitement as when I receive smiles from children,or praise from other teachers.Most of my students have not traveled outside the town where they live,and for some,a trip to the city museum proves the most adventurous experience in their lives.If I could somehow open the world to these children,and if I could push them a bit,to dream of living in a bigger world,they may work harder and maybe one day venture beyond their neighborhood.I work late into each night creating lessons and activities for the following day,trying to come up with ways to attract my students and connect them to the larger world.I also plan to go back to school for further study so that I can also teach science,math,social studies,reading and writing.4.Why did the author say no to teaching at first?______A. She didn't like to work with children.B. She wasn't sure if she could do it well.C. Her mother wanted her to do something else.D. It would take up too much of her time and energy.5.When did the author fall in love with teaching?______A. When she had her own child.B. Immediately after she started teaching.C. During the time when she lived abroad.D. When she learnt about her students'dreams.6.What can we learn about the author's students?______A. They work hard and dream big.B. Most of them come from poor families.C. They knew nothing about French in the beginning.D. Their lives are mostly limited to their hometown.7.What does the author want to do in the near future?______A. Work in her mother's school.B. Receive further education in teaching.C. Teach more languages besides French.D. Experiment with new teaching methods.CIt might sound like 1.5 million penguins are a hard thing to miss.However,that is indeed thelie penguins who have managed to conceal themselves for case with this super-colony of Adémany years in the Danger Islands of Antarctica.The far-away,difficult to reach land is always circled by thick ice.It was,therefore,believed to be uninhabitable(不适宜居住的)and scientists paid little attention to it.However in 2014,when Stony Brook University scientist Heather Lynch was examining pictures of the islands,she noticed what appeared to be penguin waste.To find out what was happening,Lynch planned an expedition(探险)with a team that included researchers.After several months of preparation,the researchers reached the Danger Islands in December 2015.To their joy ,they were greeted by hundreds of thousands of the nesting birds.Through several days of hard work,the researchers came to the conclusion that the islands are home to over 1.5 million penguins.The discovery is particularly exciting given that on the West Antarctic Peninsula,Adélie penguins numbers are dropping rapidly.With the new additions,scientists now say there are over four million known pairs of the birds in Antarctica.In the study,published in Scientific Reports on March 2,2018,the scientists said one of the things that surprised them about the newly-found penguins was their nesting habits.Unlike other Adélie penguins who nest in a circle to protect themselves,the Danger Islands birds seem to have no such fear and prefer nesting separately.And thanks to the pinkish waste,the researchers know the penguins diet is mainly made up of shrimp(虾)."This exciting discovery shows us just how much more there still is to learn about this amazing animal,"said Rod Downie,head of the polar programs at the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF)."But it also reminds us to protect the waters off the coast of Antarctica to safeguard Adélie penguins from both overfishing and global warming."8.What does the underlined word "conceal" in Paragraph 1 mean?______A. Hide.B. Protect.C. Control.D. Support.9.How was Heather Lynch's expedition?______A. Interesting.B. Unexpected.C. Fruitful.D. Disappointing.10.How do the newly-found penguins differ from other Adélie penguins?______A. In their diet.B. In their appearance.C. In their nesting habits.D. In their way of communication.11.What is the author's purpose in writing this text?______A. To report a discovery.B. To record an expedition.C. To introduce Adélie penguins.D. To call on people to protect penguins.DIt might sound like a terrible dream,but a new design from Dubai-based airline Emirates plans to remove windows from airplanes.Instead of real-life views of clouds and sky,first-class passengers will look out of "virtual(虚拟的)windows," enjoying projected views of the worldpassing by.Emirates' "windows" use real-time high-tech camera technology to provide virtual views of the outside world.Saj Ahmad,Chief Analyst at Strategic Aero Research says,"Windowless airplanes sound great,however,in reality,it won't happen for a number of reasons.For starters,in the event of an emergency,people in the plane often need to look out for reference points.Having visual awareness(视觉意识)is important and in a windowless jet,they don't exist-especially if there is an electrical fault which then means that the ‘electric' windows do not work and you can't see outside."Ahmad was also concerned about passenger comfort."Passengers simply do love the natural view outside," he says."There are also other problems -- the change involved would certainly require new tests."Other futuristic airplane designs are going the opposite way.Boeing's Dreamliner -- its most modern design -- features large windows.Airbus has also designed a plane with transparent (透明的)walls that is presented at the 2011 Paris Air Show.Embraer has planned the Kyoto cabin,designed for its Lineage 1000E aircraft,which features large windows running along the majority of the walls of the cabin.There could also be a move towards pilotless planes in the future -- but Ahmad applies his doubts about windowless planes to drone-flown(无人驾驶的)planes too."The idea of windowless planes is possible -- that doesn't mean it will happen," says Ahmad."The same applies to drone technology -- but that doesn't mean that tomorrow we're suddenly going to see all airplanes being flown without pilots."12.What will Emirates' new planes be like?______A. They will be pilotless.B. They will have open windows.C. They will present outside views on virtual windows.D. They will provide all passengers with windowless experiences.13.What does Saj Ahmad think of the virtual windows?______A. Useful.B. Expensive.C. Impractical.D. Comfortable.14.How is the third paragraph developed?______A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following space order.D. By explaining cause and effect.15.What is the future of drone technology according to Saj Ahmad?______A. It needs more skilled engineers.B. It will take time to develop.C. It will be widely applied.D. It is promising.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Three uncommon methods for a better sleepYou left your phone on the bedside table.

How much should you pay for a hardcover book describing middle-aged stress?A.$39.92B.$34.99C.$27.99D.$26.99.23. Which of the following books contains some interesting essays?A. Ni a Cubetadas.B. Bullets to Bandages.C. The One Who Shows the Way.D. Bless Your Little Cotton Socks.[B]A new study shows that avoiding your neighbors may actually be bad for your heart and feeling socially connected to your community reduces the risk of a heart attack a lot. While we may agree that having a safe and healthy neighborhood would help residents feel mentally healthy, it's becoming more and more obvious that emotional happiness leads to physical health, particularly heart health.Psychologists(心理学家)at the University of Michigan just completed new research thattested how socially connected people felt and how healthy they were. Participants(参与者) rated how strongly they agreed with statements like, “I really feel part of this area,” and “If I were in trouble, there are lots of people in this area who would help.”For the next four years, the researchers tracked their health.As the leading cause of death for both men and women in the US, heart disease can be caused by many things like poor diet, lack of exercise and stress, and this new research shows that, at least among the 5,276 study participants, those who felt the most socially bonded with their community, had a 67 percent reduced risk of heart attack. Pretty amazing.The study controlled for other known factors of heart disease risk like age and race, but interestingly, also for what they called “dispositional factors”i.e. personality. For example, optimism was measured. Lead researcher and psychologist Eric Kim said, “We're finding that things like increased optimism are associated with reduced risk of heart failure and stroke(中风).” And the beauty of it is that how optimistic and connected you feel is up to you. There are no set standards in order to qualify for the health benefits because your own comfort and emotions are what guide your stress levels and health.Even though there is always some conflicting information in the health area (a recent study says knowing your neighbors doesn't actually make you happier), it seems getting connected with your community is never a bad idea for your health.24. What 's the theme of the text?A. The warning signs of a heart attack.B. The health benefits of physical activity.C. Ties between community and your health.D. The ways to build a friendly neighborhood.25. The statements given in Paragraph 2 focus on the participant's _____.A. personal characterB. experiences in lifeC. living conditionsD. neighborhood relations26. The figures in Paragraph 3 are used to show that _____.A. heart disease is the leading cause of deathB. poor diet is the major cause of heart diseaseC. people should often take exercise in their communityD. good relationships in communities help prevent heart disease27. What can we infer from Eric Kim's words in Paragraph 4?A. One's personality may change with age.B. Being optimistic is good for your heart.C. It's hard to measure optimism accurately.D. Heart health and personality are not related.[C]Perhaps the cleverest scan(骗术) in the animal world can be found in South Africa's Kalahari Desert.At the heart of this scam is the drongo, a bird that likes to hang out with meerkats (a four-toed animal). The meerkats search for insects. While they eat, a meerkat is on duty looking for danger. Drongos have sharp eyesight, and as they can fly and perch(栖息)higher, they often spot(发现) the danger first. Martial eagles are a serious threat. The drongo's alarm alerts(使警觉) the meerkats. They,in turn,call and run for cover.Having their own lookout bird helps the meerkats spend more time feeding. But there is a price to pay. The drongo isn't quite as selfless as he seems, and has learned to turn this alarm to his advantage. He becomes an expert on the meerkats' habits, learning that when an adult finds food, it calls out to the youngsters to share.As the food is about to be exchanged, the drongo calls the alarm, but this time, it's a trick. As the meerkats abandon(抛弃)their food and flee,the drongo steals their meal.Onto a good thing, the drongo tries again. But the meerkats know when they've been scammed.And this time, no one reacts at all. So the drongo takes it to the next level. But even screaming the alarm in their face doesn't work. The meerkats are smart enough to know a cheat when they hear one. Or are they? The drongo has another trick to pull. This time the drongo mimics (模仿) the meerkats' own alarm call. It's so accurate that the meerkats are scammed again.Drongos get over a fifth of their daily meals by making false alarms and stealing. When a drongo has exhausted all his tricks, he tries a more brazen (厚颜无耻的) approach. But he's pushed his luck too far. He must try his scams elsewhere.The intelligence of animals is sometimes so extraordinary that it can be truly amazing.28. What do drongos do when spotting danger?A. Run for cover.B. Send out a signal(信号).C. Fly to a higher branch.D. Protect the meerkats first.29. What price do the meerkats have to pay according to Paragraph 3?A. Losing food to drongos.B. Being attacked by drongos.C. Sharing their food selflessly.D. Abandoning their youngsters.30. What are the meerkats like when being tricked for the second time?A. Afraid.B. Cautious.C. Confused.D. Depressed.31. What are drongos good at according to the text?A. Copying.B. Hunting.C. Making friends.D. Fleeing for their life.[D]Daniel Lamplugh remembers going shopping with his dad on Black Friday.“Waking up at 6 a. m. the day after Thanksgiving is what I grew up doing,” says the University of New Orleans film student.A lot has changed since those childhood days. Online retailers(零售商) have forced many chains out of business. Consumers are increasingly shopping with their smart phones. But a funny thing happened on the way to the future: Most shoppers are not going all-digital. Surveys show they are eager for good experiences at retail stores.This November and December, for the first time ever, retailer websites will get more traffic from mobile users than computer users, predicts Adobe Digital Insights. "We live our lives with a combination of the physical and the digital.” says Kit Yarrow, author of the book “Decoding the New Consumer Mind.”“Retailers have to understand it's not a question of either/or. It's a question of combining the two.”Heather Howe, an MBA student, said, “Consumers like shopping on their phones and online because it's more convenient and because there are more options(选择). I went to the Vans store to try on shoes and then I actually purchased them online while I was in the store.”While mobile sales are growing, the widest use of smartphones in stores is researching products or looking up product information (58 percent),closely followed by checking or comparing prices (54 percent), according to a survey.“My phone plays a huge r ole in online shopping, because I am on the email list for all of myfavorite brands, so I get many emails daily informing me of sales,” says Rachel Lynch, who works at a Boston public-relations agency. “ Also, a store has an app that allows me to chat with other users about the products, and read reviews. Online reviews are one of the first things I look at when I am about to buy a new product.”“Electronics and kitchen equipment are definitely online purchases for me, since they're heavy to get home on the subway and often cheaper online,” says Michael Miller-Ernest, a manager in Brooklyn, N.Y.32. What do most shoppers tend to do now?A. Do shopping all-digitally.B. Use computers to do online shopping.C. Do window shopping in shopping malls.D. Go to physical stores with their smartphones.33. What’s Kit Yarrow's suggestion for retailers?A. Reaching both online and offline consumers.B. Focusing on either the physical or the digital.C. Encouraging consumers to use smartphones.D. Providing more convenience for computer users.34. What does Heather Howe think of online stores?A. They offer wider choices.B. They sell high quality goods.C. They will replace physical stores.D. They are burning shoppers’patience.35. What can be inferred about Rachel Lynch's habits?A. She buys heavy goods online.B. She often writes users' reviews.C. She is fond of sending producers emails.D. She tries to learn about other users' experience.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。

He is an expert on black holes . He has devoted his whole life to digging into the beginning and the end of the universe. “My goal is simple,” Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe(宇宙), why it is as it is and why it is there at all.”Hawking’s achievements are eve n greater if you think about his disability (残疾). When he was 21, Hawking caught a bad illness that slowly stopped him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼). Later he sat on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moved two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He selected his words from the screen, which were then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).“I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said, “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.”Though Hawking was a disabled man , he made great achievements . He received many awards and prizesfor his work during his lifetime. This included winning the Albert Einstein Award, which stands for the highest achievement in theoretical(理论的) physics.Despite the fact that he is no longer with us, his legacy (遗赠)will surely live on. As Sajid Javid, a UKgovernment minister, put it, “A brief history on Earth; an eternity(永恒的) in the stars.”21. From the text we can learn________.A. Hawking is more famous than Einstein.B. Hawking is less famous than Einstein.C. Both Hawking and Einstein are very famous.D. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous.22. W hat does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph mean?A. The universe.B. The earth.C. The goal.D. The black hole.23. According to the text, which of the following statements is the fact?A. Hawking received many awards and prizes except the Albert Einstein Award.B. The illness kept him from moving and talking.C. He communicated with others by speaking.D. The illness stopped him from being successful.BThere was a boy in India who was sent by his parents to a boarding school(寄宿学校). Before being sent away this boy was the brightest student in his class. He was at the top in every competition. He was a champion.But the boy changed after leaving home and attending the boarding school. His grades started dropping. He hated being in a group. He was lonely all the time. And there were especially dark times when he felt like killing himself. All of this was because he felt worthless and that no one loved him.His parents started worrying about the boy. But even they did not know what was wrong with him. So his dad decided to travel to the boarding school and talk with him.They sat on the bank of the lake near the school. The father started asking him casual questions about his classes, teachers and sports. After some time his dad said,“Do you know son, why I am here today?”The boy answered back, “to check my grades?”“No, no” his dad replied, “I am here to tell you that you are the most important person for me. I want to see you happy. I don’t care about grades. I care about you.I care about your happiness. YOU ARE MY LIFE.”These words caused the boy’s eyes to fill with tears. He hugged his dad. They didn’t say anything to each other for a long time.Now the boy had everything he wanted. He knew there was someone on this earth who cared for him deeply. He meant the world to someone. And today this young man is in college at the top of his class and no one has ever seen him sad!Thanks a lot dad. YOU ARE MY LIFE.24. The father went to the boarding school to_________.A. know if he was still the best studentB. find out what was wrong with his sonC. ask some questions about his classmatesD. talk with the boy’s teacher about his grades25. If we say the questions are casual, we mean they are________.A. unimportantB. strangeC. specialD. difficult26. Why were the boy’s eyes fill ed with tears when he heard what his father said?A. Because his father didn’t care about his grades any more.B. Because he hadn’t had a talk with his father for a long time.C. Because he had a chance to say his worries.D.

The passage mainly tells us never to _________.A. send a small boy to a boarding schoolB. care too much about a student’s gradesC. pay no attention to the power of caringD. miss the chance to say thanks to our fathersCMany people tend to complain about not having good friends in their lives. Sadly, they seem to think that their own company(陪伴) is not enough to make them happy. Nothing could be further from the truth, though. In order to get along with others, the first thing you need to do is learn to get along with yourself. Only in this way will you succeed in developing healthy, solid relationships with others.Listen to your inner voice. Remember that inner voice that keeps whispering to you what you really want and need as well as what you do not really want and need. It is about time you started listening to it. In order to get to know yourself in depth, it is important to learn and accept what you want and what you do not want.Learn to enjoy your own company. You will be surprised to find out how many things you can do by yourself and actually have fun in the process. Reading romantic novels, poetry or science fiction is only a few of the things that you can do by yourself, which not only can offer you hours of enjoyment, but also the chance to get to knowyourself better.Satisfy yourself. Pay special attention to your personal hygiene(卫生). Do your hair and nails often and experiment with new styles. Follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly to stay in good shape. No matter how busy your daily schedule is, always find at least an hour per day for yourself, when you can either relax doing absolutely nothing, or doing something that you enjoy.Learn to respect your own boundaries(分界线). Find out what your boundaries are and learn to respect them. You are the only one who knows what you can and what you cannot accept.28. If you want to have a good relationship with others, you should first ________.A. get into the habit of living aloneB. make many friends in societyC. always tell the truthD. learn to be your own best friend29. What is the purpose of listening to your inner voice?A. To keep a good state of mind.B. To know more about yourself.C. To enjoy the time by yourself.D. To form a relationship with others.30. In order to satisfy yourself , the writer gives some suggestions EXCEPT ________.A. eating healthilyB. exercising regularlyC. experimenting with new hair styleD. keeping on cleaning the house31. What is the structure(结构) of the passage?DWhat Is Self-tracking All abo ut”Have you ever monitored(监测)something about yourself? Perhaps you’ve tracked (追踪)how many kilometers you’ve run, how many hours you’ve slept or how many calories you’ve eaten in a day.If so, you’ve taken part in a movement called the “Quantified Self Movement.” Individuals(个人)gather information AD about their daily activities in this popular movement, also called self-tracking. This may sound difficult, but technology is making the process easier.Perhaps you’ve wanted to change a bad habit but couldn’t. Self-tracking may be your answer. The idea is to take information about your everyday activities and analyze them to help form a healthier lifestyle.Recently, tools such as smart phones, journals and apps, along with newly published wearable things, are making self-tracking extremely easy. Today, one can use Fitbit, the Jawbone Up, Google Glass or a smart watch to record personal dataincluding sleeping hours, stress levels, heart rate and mood.So why does a person self-track? Someone may be trying to lose weight or improve their sleep patterns. Another person feels tired after eating. Self-tracking could help him to know what foods make him sleepy and watch his diet.Monitoring daily activities isn’t a new concept. In past years, athletes and their coaches kept notes detailing nutrition(营养), training and sleep patterns in order to achieve an athletic goal. Similarly, doctors have also helped patients to record parts of their lifestyles and eating habits to help fight allergies, headaches and other health problems. However, it wasn’t until 2007 that magazine editors Gary Wolf and Kim Kelly, who started tracking every move they made, coined the term “Quantified Self.” Wolf says that the new tools will change our sense of self with the purpose of making us more effective in the world.Although self-tracking has many advantages, Dennis Nash, president of Data Speaks Health Solutions, says self-tracking has its drawbacks(不利之处). Once people start tracking their daily activities, it can become an addition people like to do often. Also, they might begin to worry too much about their health.While self-tracking doesn’t guarantee(保证)that one’s quality of life will improve, it can highlight(突出,强调)the importance of eating well and exercising daily. After all, the Quantified Self Movement’s focus is motivating people to apply enough energy to make healthier choices.32. People choose self-tracking because _______.A. it collects personal data and leads to self-improvementsB. it records how many hours you sleep a dayC. it watches your eating habitsD. it increases your movement33. The writer mentions tools such as smart phones and apps in Paragraph 4 to show _______.A. we depend too much on themB. it is easier to do self-trackingC. they do harm to people’s healthD. equipment is necessary to do self-tracking34. Self-tracking was firstly put forward by _______.A. scientists of Data Speaks Health SolutionsB. athletes and their coachesC. doctors and their patientsD. two magazine editors35. You can find this article in the part of _______.A. EducationB. TravelC. HealthD. News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。
