五校联考英语试题（满分75分，考试时间50分钟）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共7小题；每小题2.5分，满分17.5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。

AThe traffic signals along Factoria Boulevard in Bellevue,Washington,generally don’t flash the same length of green twice in a row,especially at rush hour.At9:30am,the full red/yellow/green signal cycle might be140seconds.By9:33am,a burst of additional traffic might push it to145seconds.Less traffic at9:37am could push it down to135.Just like the traffic itself,the timing of the signals changes.That is by design.Bellevue,a fast-growing city just east of Seattle,uses a system that is gaining popularity around the US:intersection(十字路口)signals that can adjust in real time to traffic conditions.These lights,known as adaptive signals,have led to significant declines in both the trouble and cost of travels between work and home.“Adaptive signals can make sure that the traffic demand that is there is being addressed,”says Alex Stevanovic,a researcher at Florida Atlantic University.For all of Bellevue’s success,adaptive signals are not a cure-all for jammed roadways.Kevin Balke,a research engineer at the Texas A&M University Transportation Institute,says that while smart lights can be particularly beneficial for some cities,others are so jammed that only a sharp reduction in the number of cars on the road will make a meaningful difference.“It’s not going to fix everything,but adaptive signals have some benefits for smaller cities,”he says.In Bellevue,the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming new approaches.In the past,there was often an automatic reaction to increased traffic:just widen the roads,says Mark Poch,the Bellevue Transportation Department’s traffic engineering manager. Now he hopes that other cities will consider making their streets run smarter instead of just making them bigger.1.What does the underlined word“that”in Paragraph2refer to?A.Increased length of green lights.B.Shortened traffic signal cycle.C.Smooth traffic flow on the road.D.Flexible timing of traffic signals.2.What does Kevin Balke say about adaptive signals?A.They work better on broad roads.B.They should be used in other cities.C.They are less helpful in cities seriously jammed.D.They have greatly reduced traffic on the road.3.What can we learn from Bellevue’s success?A.It is rewarding to try new things.B.The old methods still work today.C.It pays to put theory into practice.D.The simplest way is the best way.BAfter years of observing human nature,I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent.I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either.And I have never known an average man who had both.The two belong together.Together,these deep human urges(驱策力)count for much more than ambition.Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground.Like Galileo,all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent,“Why?Why?Why?”Fortunately,curiosity and discontent don’t have to be learned.We are born with them and need only recapture them.“The great man,”said Mencius(孟子),“is he who does not lose his child’s heart.”Yet most of us do lose it.We stop asking questions.We stop challenging custom.We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average.It encourages us to occupy our own little corner,to avoid foolish leaps into the dark,to be satisfied.Most of us meet new people,and new ideas,with hesitation.But once having met and liked them,we think how terrible it would have been,had we missed the chance.We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.How should you start?Modestly,so as not to become discouraged.I think of one friend who couldn’t arrange flowers to satisfy herself.She was curious about how the experts did it.How she is one of the experts,writing books on flower arrangement.One way to begin is to answer your own excuses.You haven’t any special ability?Most people don’t;there are only a few geniuses.You haven’t any time?That’s good,because it’s always the people with no time who get things done.Harriet Stowe,mother of six,wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabin while cooking.You’re too old?Remember that Thomas Costain was57when he published his first novel,and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was78.However you start,remember there is no better time to start than right now,for you’ll never be more alive than you are at this moment.4.What does the example of Galileo tell us?A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.B.Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.C.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.D.Creativity results from challenging authority.5.What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent?A.Observe the unknown around you.B.Develop a questioning mind.C.Lead a life of adventure.D.Follow the fashion.6.What can we learn from Paragraphs6and7?A.Gaining success helps you become an expert.ck of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.C.The genius tends to get things done creatively.D.You should remain modest when approaching perfection.7.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Curious Minds Never Feel ContentedB.Reflections on Human NatureC.Never Too Late to LearnD.The Keys to Achievement第二节（共5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。

Advertisement.BA struggling Waffle (华夫饼) House employee who was trying to serve nearly 30 people by himself after midnight got a full serving of kindness when some customers jumped behind the counter to help him.Ethan Crispo, 24, witnessed the inspiring scene in the early hours of Nov. 3 at a Waffle House in Birmingham, Alabama.Crispo told TODAY’s Kerry Sanders that he had come to the 24-hour restaurant from a friend’s birthday party and saw the struggling employee, identified only as Ben, trying to cook the food, serve it, set tables and wash dishes while more than 25 people were waiting to eat.“The look on his face was just confusion,” Crispo told Sanders.An unidentified male customer then decided to help him out, grabbing an apron and going behind the counter to wash dishes.Another customer, Alison Stanley, went behind the counter to make some coffee — still dressed from a night out on the town.“I don’t think it’s anything special,” Stanley told Sanders. “He needed help, so I got up and helped out.”Crispo took some photos of the scene as multiple customers worked to clear tables and wash dishes while Ben focused on taking orders and preparing the food.Waffle House told TODAY that Ben was left to support himself due to a scheduling issue.“We had two associates scheduled to leave. However, due to a communication mix-up, their relief did not show up on time,” Waffle House director of PR Pat Warner said in a statement. “That left Ben, our cook, al one in the restaurant with hungry customers. He worked the grill and got the orders out.”The company was also thankful for the customers who joined in and helped Ben out.“We are grateful that many of our customers feel like they are part of our Waffle House family,” Warner said. “There is a sense of community in each and every one of our restaurants, and we appreciate the fact that they consider our associates like family.”“We are also very thankful for Ben, who kept the restaurant open. He is a represen tative of our Waffle House culture by always putting the customers first.”Crispo had his usual order, double plain waffle, as he took in the scene of strangers helping out Ben on his shift.“Humanity truly isn’t good —it’s great!” he said.24. Ben was left to work alone during his midnight shift because ________.A. his associates asked for a leaveB. there was a scheduling mistakeC. few customers needed to be servedD. the restaurant was scheduled to close25. Some customers helped Ben out by ________.A. washing dishesB. taking photosC. taking ordersD. cooking food26. Why did the customers lend a helping hand according to Pat Warner?A. They shared the same community spirit.B. They were family members of Ben.C. They wanted to serve themselves.D. They were too hungry to wait.27. How did Crispo feel as a witness of the scene?A. Lucky and excited.B. Moved and inspired.C. Relieved and hopeful.D. Content and unbelievable.CIt’s common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting seems to look back at viewers, following them with her eyes no matter where they are in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle of 15.4°off to the viewer’s right — well outside the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, “She’s not looking at you.”This is ironic (讽刺), because the entire phenomenon of a person’s gaze (凝视) in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the “Mona Lisa effect”, which is absolutely real. If a person isillustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person’s gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars (虚拟头像) when Horstmann took a long look at the “Mona Lisa” and realized she wasn’t looking at him.To make sure it wasn’t just him, the researchers gathered 24 people to view images of the “Mona Lisa” on a computer screen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected (相交) Mona Lisa’s gaze. To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gaze as she looked at the viewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study. Consistently, the researchers found, participants judged that the woman in the “Mona Lisa” portrait was not looking straight at them, but slightly off to their right.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn’t sure. It’s possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term “Mona Lisa effect” just thought it was a cool name.28. It is generally believed that the woman in the painting “Mona Lisa” ________.A. attracts the viewers to look backB. seems mysterious because of her eyesC. fixes her eyes on the back of the viewersD. looks at observers wherever they stand29. What did the new study find?A. The Mona Lisa effect does not really exist.B. The mystery of the woman’s smile in the painting.C. The angle of the gaze in Mona Lisa effect.D. Mona Lisa effect does not occur with Mona Lisa.30. The experiment involving 24 people was conducted to ________.A. confirm Horstmann’s beliefB. create artificial-intelligence avatarsC. calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gazeD. show how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied31. What can we learn from the passage?A. Horstmann thinks it cool to coin the term “Mona Lisa effect”.B. The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.C. Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.D. The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers’ judgement.DIt’s almost spring, the time of year when the change in seasons could lead to some pretty fascinating cloud activity in the sky. NASA and the GLOBE Program are inviting you to take part in a citizen sciencecloud observation challenge.The GLOBE Program is an international science and education program providing the public with the opportunity to participate in the scientific process. From March 15 through April 15, citizen scientists can make up to 10 cloud observations per day using the GLOBE Observer app or one of the other data entry options (for trained GLOBE members). Challenge participants with the most observations will be c ongratulated by a NASA scientist in a video posted on the GLOBE Program’s website and social media.“The GLOBE Program is offering this challenge to show how important it is to NASA to have citizen scientist observations from ground up,” said Marile Colon Robles, lead for the GLOBE Clouds team at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia.Researchers use and value this citizen science cloud data because it helps confirm data from Earth-observing instruments.Scientists at Langley work with a set of six instruments known as the Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES). Even though C ERES’ instruments use advanced technology, it is not always easy for researchers to positively identify all types of clouds in their images.For example, it can be difficult to tell thin, wispy cirrus clouds (细小的卷云) from snow, since both are cold and bright; it is even more so when cirrus clouds are above a surface with patchy snow (片状雪) or snow cover. One solution is to look at satellite images from a particular area and compare them to data submitted by citizen scientists on the ground.“Looking at what an observer recorded as clouds and looking at their surface observations really helps us better understand the images that were matched from the satellite,” said Colon Robles.You don’t have to be a cloud-gazing professional to participate. For those who want to be part of the challenge but don’t have a lot of experience identifying clouds, Colon Robles offers the following advice: “Just go outside. The more clouds you observe, the more comfortable you’ll be collecting data.”32. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?A. Provide background information.B. Present an argument.C. Attract readers’ attention.D. Offer advice to readers.33. Why do researchers launch the cloud observation challenge?A. The GLOBE Program is badly short of hands.B. The technology CERES uses is not advanced.C. Cirrus clouds are difficult to identify with snow cover.D. Scientists can compare data from different instruments.34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Citizen observers can only submit data by means of an app.B. Observers with the most observations will receive a special honor.C. Observations from the ground are not as valuable as satellite images.D. The data collected by citizen scientists will be posted on social media.35. Which is the best title for the passage?A. NASA to Employ New MembersB. Cloud Activities Bring a New ChallengeC. Scientists to Teach You to Observe CloudsD. Citizens Gain Experience through Observation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。

Call2Recycle agreed to assist and provided recycling bins for free,which were placed in schools,libraries,and other public places.Nihal’s organization now operates across the U.S.and is expanding to other countries including Canada, Switzerland,and India.“Earth gives us so much—oxygen,food,water—everything!So it’s important that we give something back when we can,”says Nihal.The Barron Prize was founded in2001by author T.A.Barron.“Nothing is more inspiring than stories about heroic people who have truly made a difference to the world,”says T.A.Barron.“And we need our heroes today more than ever.Not celebrities,but heroes—people whose character can inspire us all.That is the purpose of the Barron Prize:to shine the spotlight on these amazing young people so that their stories will inspire others.”4.What does Recycle My Battery intend to do?A.Protect the earth from used batteries.B.Promote used batteries across the globe.C.Make money by collecting used batteries.D.Stop people throwing used batteries away.5.What does the underlined word“Undeterred”in Paragraph3probably mean?A.Undiscouraged.B.Unprepared.C.Unsurprised.D.Uninterested.6.How did Call2Recycle help Nihal’s organization?A.By making it go global.B.By offering free recycling bins.C.By providing financial support.D.By buying more used batteries.7.What is the text mainly about?A.The importance of recycling batteries.B.The impact of batteries on the environment.C.The achievements of the Barron Prize winners.D.The inspiring story of a young environmentalist.CMore than50million people in Asia,Africa,the Middle East and elsewhere follow pastoralism(游牧)as a way oflife.The practice has survived for so long because it is designed to change with the environment.Pastoralists move with animals to find new lands and water,leaving behind eaten plants to regrow.Mongolia is well known for its pastoralism.Agvaantogtokh and his family are herders（牧民）.On horseback,he rides with nearly a thousand sheep and goats to help them find water.Sometimes,he and his wife,Nurmaa,stop to help struggling young ones,weak after a difficult winter.For families like Agvaantogtokh’s,pastoralism is more than a profession.It is a cultural identity that connects generations.At its heart is the human connection to animals.While they consider the animals as their property,they also see them as living beings working alongside them.Researchers say herders believe in“animal agency”.Agvaantogtokh lets his animals choose the food they eat and where they find water.To him,restricting an animal’s movement and asking it to eat the same thing each day is like putting a person in prison.In Mongolia,weather extremes are a part of life.When Agvaantogtokh thinks about climate change,he is concerned about humans and animals.Continuous dry and warm weather affects Mongolia.Since1940,the government says,average temperatures have risen2.2degrees Celsius.To keep their practice alive,pastoralists seek ways to modernize.In Mongolia,Lkhaebum recently began using a small vehicle to more easily search for horses. The family uses electricity and has other technologies including a TV and a washing machine.They also use a cellphone to follow the weather and access social media where herders share information.One of the biggest threats to pastoralism comes from within.Nurmaa and Agvaantogtokh’s18-year-old daughter studies medicine.Their son spoke about becoming a herder when he was a child,but not anymore.“I won’t regret anything if my child won’t be a herder,”Nurmaa said.“I would like them to do what they desire to do.”8.What contributes to the survival of pastoralism?A.Huge pastoralist populations.B.Adaptation to the environment.C.Herders’desire to travel to new places.D.Slow development of modernization.9.What does pastoralism mean to Agvaantogtokh?A.The distinct identity of animals.B.A poorly-paid profession.C.An out-of-date lifestyle.D.The bond between man and animals.10.What does“animal agency”in Paragraph4refer to?A.Animals’living in cages.B.Animals’eating the same thing.C.Animals’struggling in shelters.D.Animals’moving around freely.11.What is a big challenge for pastoralism?A.Modern technology.B.No government support.C.Young people’s disinterest in it.ck of information exchange.DDr Paul King at Texas Christian University has been an influential scholar in the field of communication studies for30years.I spoke to King about his research into“state anxiety in listening performance”.Most of us believe that anxiety impacts only the person giving the speech or presentation.Dr King has discovered that audience members feel anxiety,too.King says that listening is a tiring activity because the learner is continually adding material to beremembered-retrieved-later.This is what he means by“cognitive backlog(认知积压)”.Put simply,the longer the task or the more information that is delivered,the greater the cognitive load.According to King,listening to a five-minute presentation produces a relatively small amount of cognitive backlog;an18-minute presentation produces a little more, while a60-minute presentation produces so much backlog that you risk seriously upsetting your audience unless you create a very engaging presentation with“soft breaks”—stories,videos,demonstrations,or other speakers.The longer the presentation,the more the listener has to organize,comprehend,and remember.The burden increases along with a listener’s anxiety.They become increasingly frustrated,even angry.King says that the current research into memory processing suggests that it’s better to study content on two or three occasions for a short period of time instead of spending an entire evening cramming(填鸭式学习).King applies the results to his graduate class on research methods.If given a choice,most graduate students would rather attend a single three-hour class than three50-minute classes.When King taught his class once a week,he found that the students returned for the next class having lost most of the information they had learned the prior week. King discovered the“better practice”was to schedule the same content on three separate occasions,such as Monday, Wednesday,and Friday.King said that despite objections,when he taught the class on three occasions his students scored better and exhibited a better memory of the complex material.12.What does Dr Paul King say about“cognitive backlog”?A.It should be prevented from happening.B.It is affected by the number of listeners.C.It changes with the length of a presentation.D.It produces a negative effect on mental health.13.What is the function of“soft breaks”?A.To case listeners’anxiety.B.To show the talents of speakers.C.To add topics to the presentation.D.To make the presentation longer.14.What does Dr Paul King’s new practice focus on?A.Exploring complex materials.pleting a single task at a time.C.Breaking up the whole into parts.D.Grouping students by their levels.15.What can we learn about Dr Paul King’s new class schedule?A.It was welcomed by students.B.It turned out to be a success.C.It made no difference indeed.D.It still had room for improvement.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

And th is stands to reason, if you’re paying $20,000 for your trip to orbit! Strain order for tourism to reach its full potential there’s going to be a need for orbital accommodation---or space hotels. What would a space hotel actually be like to visit? Hotels in orbit will offer the services you expect from a hotel---private rooms, meals, bars. But they’ll also offer two unique experiences: impressive views---of Earth and space---and the endless entertainment of living in zero gravity---including sports and other activities that make use of this.The hotels themselves will vary greatly---from being quite simple in the early days to huge luxury structure at a later date. It’s actually surprising that as later as 1997, very few designs for space hotels were published. This is mainly because those who might be expected to design them haven’t expected launch costs to come down far enough to make them possible.Lots of people who’ve been to space have described vividly what it’s like to live in zero gravity. There are obviously all sort of possibilities for dancing, gymnastics, and zero-G sports. Luckily, you don’t need to sleep much living in zero gravity, so you’ll have plenty of time for relaxing by hanging out in a bar with a window looking down at the turning Earth below.Of course all good things have come to an end. Unfortunately, a nd so after a few days you’ll find yourself heading back enough you’ll be much more expert at exercising in zero gravity than you were when you arrived. You’ll be thinking how soon you can save up enough to get back up again---or maybe you should change jobs to get to work in an orbiting hotel.31.
