2021年山东省（新高考）高考英语二模试卷（二）一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共37.5分）ANew events and changes of junior golf competition calendar New eventsNotah BegayⅢ Junior Golf National ChampionshipWhat does a junior golfer aim to pursue？One thing is to be noticed, ideally by a college coach.A remarkable opportunity will be offered by the Notah BegayⅢ Junior Golf National Championship to its participants：an event broadcast by Golf Channel. Players aged between eight and 18 can compete in the new event；information about where and when it will be held will be released later.Barbasol Junior ChampionshipBeginning the career in the PGA Tour is something that a junior golfer tends to dream of. The Barbasol Junior Championship, which is scheduled to take place between June 29 and July 2 at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky, will provide such an opportunity. Boys under 19 years old will qualify for this new 54-hole event, and the winner will be awarded a spot at the PGA Tour's Barbasol Championship in July.Changed eventsThunderbird International JuniorThe dates of the AJGA's Thunderbird International Junior have to be changed since the NCAA Championships move to Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona, for the next three years. Generally, the Thunderbird is played at the end of May. However, this year it is scheduled on different dates for the first time, from April 9 to 12，which means, of course, that the finish date is on Masters Sunday.Gator InvitationalJunior golf intends to prepare for the following college golf. If this is the case, then it is crucial to simulate the higher-level experience as much as possible. Because of that, the Gator Invitational, as a junior boys' event, has made a significant decision on becoming a 54-hole event by adding a round this year. The new version will be played from March 13 to 15 at The Country Club of Jackson in Jackson, Mississippi.1.Which event can be watched on TV？______A. Notah BegayⅢ Junior Golf National Championship.B. Barbasol Junior Championship.C. Thunderbird International Junior.D. Gator Invitational.2.When will the Thunderbird International Junior be played？______A. At the end of May.B. From April 9 to 12.C. Between June 29 and July 2.D. From March 13 to 15.3.What has been changed about the Gator Invitational？______A. The award given to the winnerB. The place where it is played.C. The required age of the players.D. The number of rounds it has.BA PhD student in Michigan defended her paper while wearing a skirt made of rejection letters she received while studying. 29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters - from scholarships, academic journals, and conferences - then folded each one into a fan. She connected them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize rejection and take pride in overcoming it. "The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said. "A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way."Caitlin's adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science at Michigan State University, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students. Libarkin believes it's important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way. If a student doesn't get the grant or the spot in the academic journal, that's okay. They'll still have learned something in the process.As for Caitlin？Her rejections over the years have led to great things：Since her doctorate, she's won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture in Germany. Currently, she's a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As for what the future holds？"I'm prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way," she joked heartily, "Maybe I'll make a longer skirt."4.What can we learn about Caitlin Kirby's rejection letters？______A. She received 17 rejections in total.B. 29 of her rejections were from journals.C. The rejections were connected into a fan.D. She made some rejection letters into a skirt.5.What is Julie Libarkin's attitude towards Caitlin's action？______A. Favorable.B. Ambiguous.C. Skeptical.D. Opposed.6.Which of the following words can best describe Catlin？______A. Creative and considerate.B. Caring and determined.C. Optimistic and humorous.D. Generous and intelligent.7.Which of the following may Caitlin agree with？______A. Hard work pays off.B. Education is the entrance to success.C. Self-respect earns more respect.D. One needs to normalize failures.CHoneybees can't swim, and when their wings are wet, they can't fly, either. But Chris Roh and other researchers at the California Institute of Technology found that when bees drop into bodies of water, they can use their wings to produce little waves and slide toward land-like surfers who create and then ride their own waves.As with many scientific advances-Isaac Newton's apple or Benjamin Franklin's lightningbolt-Dr. Roh's experiment began with a walk. Passing Caltech's Millikan Pond in 2016，he observed a bee on the water's surface producing waves. He wondered how an insect known for flight could push itself through water.Dr. Roh and his co-worker, Morteza Gharib, used butterfly nets to collect local Pasadena honeybees and observed their surf-like movements. The researchers used a wire to restrict each bee's bodily movement, allowing close examination of their wings. They found that the bee bends its wings at a 30-degree angle, pulling up water and producing a forward force. Bees get trapped on the surface because water is roughly three times heavier than air. But that weight helps to push the bee forward when its wings move quickly up and down. It's a tough exercise for the bees, which the researchers guess could handle about 10 minutes of the activity.The researchers said the surf-like movement hasn't been documented in other insects and mostsemiaquatic insects use their legs for propulsion，which is known as water-walking. It may have evolved in bees, they predicted.Dr. Roh and Dr. Gharib have imagined many practical applications for bees' surfing. One plan is to use their observations to design robots able to travel across sky and sea. "This could be useful for search and rescues, or for getting samples of the surface of the ocean, if you can't send a boat or helicopter," Dr. Gharib said.8.What does the author intend to show by mentioning Newton and Franklin？______A. Roh's admiration for them.B. Roh's chance discovery about bees.C. Their outstanding talent for science.D. Their similar achievements in discovery.9.What plays the most vital role in a bee's moving forward on water？______A. The air weight.B. Its leg extension.C. The water movement.D. Its continuous wingbeat.10.What does the underlined word "propulsion" in Paragraph 4 mean？______A. Fast flight.B. Driving force.C. Pulling speed.D. Explosive power.11.What does the text mainly tell us？______A. Honeybees can surf to safety.B. Bees help scientists make inventions.C. Insects can adapt to the environment.D. Nature is a helpful guide for discovery.DLike all cultural institutions, galleries and art fairs are adapting to a new reality.Art Basel Hong Kong, Asia's biggest contemporary-art fair, was cancelled because of COVID-19，but anyone he who had planned to visit last week could enjoy an experimental alternative：the viewing room. At the click of a keyboard you could enter an overall view but private visual salon, without having to brave the airless Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.There, on one webpage, was Jeff Koons riffing（翻唱）on Botticelli's "Primavera" in a tribute to the history of painting at David Zwirner Gallery. Ota Fine Arts offered one collector the chance to acquire an "infinity（无限）room"，one of the most Instagrammed artworks of recentyears-the creation of the fantasies, nonagenarian （九十多岁）Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama. White Cube presented a large collection of international works by Andreas Gursky （German），Theaster Gates （American）and Beatriz Milhazes （Brazilian）. But not every artist, gallery and form showed to equal advantage in this alternative fair. Not surprisingly, simpletwo-dimensional works in bright colours came across best No sculpture or conceptual art was included.Besides depth and texture, there are aspects of gallery hopping that a website is unlikely to copy. One is serendipity - the sense of wandering between artworks and encountering the unexpected. Another is sociability. Art is a communion between artist and viewer, but galleries and fairs are also places to swap opinions and share enthusiasms.There are ways to compensate or these inevitable（不可避免的）disadvantages. As they shut their physical doors, some of the world's nest galleries and museums are offering advanced interactive visits, 360 degree videos and walk around tours of their collections, all without queues and high ticket prices. One of the best is laid on by the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam；its tour allows visitors to view its Vermeers and Rembrandts, including the magnicent "Night Watch"，far more closely than would normally he possible. Another standout offering is from the Museu de Arte de SPaulo, which has an even broader collection. On its virtual platform, its pain tings, spanning 700 years, appear to be hanging in an open-plan space, seemingly hung on glass panels, or "crystal easels" as the museum calls them, ideal for close-up inspection,12.From the paragraph 3，we may know ______ .A. "Primavera" was originally painted by JeKoonsB. "infinity room" was the most popular artworks of recent years on social mediaC. White Cube displayed a great many works by artists from different nationsD. various paintings and statues showed on the webpage are well-received13.What does the underlined word "serendipity" in Paragraph 4 probably mean？______A. surprise.B. treasure.C. expectation.D. compromise.14.What is the purpose of writing the last paragraph？______A. To introduce some popular art show in the world.B. To show that there are some alternative ways to promote the display during COVID-19 epidemic.C. To prove that paintings hung on glass panels can be ideal for close-up inspection,D. To release some information about some extraordinary art shows.15.What is the best title？______A. Art beyond the internet.B. Fascinating art.C. Art under COVID -19.D. gallery hopping二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.

高三英语寒假作业专题02 形容词和副词（学）形容词和副词形容词与副词是高考考查的热点, 高考英语中单项填空、语法填空、短文改错、完形填空、书面表达，任何一项题目中都有可能涉及到形容词等级、辨析和在句中的位置。

关于形容词与副词这一考点，主要考查以下几个方面：在具体的语境中考查不同形容词意义的区别；考查形容词做状语；考查比较级的用法尤其是隐性比较；考查一些习语搭配；与形容词同形的副词与形容词后加ly构成的副词的区别；多个形容词作定语时的排列顺序等。

一、形容词，副词的主要功能1)形容词、副词的功能形容词在句中主要作定语、表语和补语，但有时也作状语，表示伴随原因等。

We find the boy considerate. (宾补)He walked in the snow, cold and hungry . （伴随状语）Afraid of difficulties, they took the easy road. （原因状语）副词作状语主要是用作修饰性状语、评注性状语及连接性状语。

其中后两种状语是现在考查的重点。

He speak English fairly fluently (修饰性状语).Fortunately，none of the them was hurt. (评注性状语)His first response was to say no. Later, however, he changed his mind. (连接性状语)注意：形容词作状语是形容主语的性质，而副词作状语则修饰动词。

如：He walked home slowly.He arrived home safe.二、形容词的位置：1．形容词作定语通常前置，但在下列情况后置：1 修饰some, any, every, no和body, thing, one等构成的复合不定代词时nobody absent, everything possible2 以-able, -ible结尾的形容词可置于有最高级或only修饰的名词之后the best book available, the only solution possible3 Afraid, ashamed, alive, alike, awake, aware,asleep等表语形容词作定语要后置the only person awake4 和空间、时间、单位连用时 a bridge 50 meters long5 形容词短语一般后置 a man difficult to get on with6 个别形容词前置和后置意义不同the members present(在场的，出席的)the present situation(现在的)the concerned parents (焦虑的)the students concerned(有关的)2．多个形容词修饰同一个名词的顺序：多个形容词作定语排列的顺序口诀巧记：限定描绘大长高，形状年龄和新老，颜色国籍跟材料，作用类别往后靠。

英语练习册冀教版第二单元,作文英文部分：Hello everyone, today we are going to explore the joys and challenges of learning English. English is a language that has become crucial in today's globalized world, and it is essential to communicate with people from different cultures and countries. However, learning English can be a challenging task, especially for those who are new to the language.Firstly, learning English is a great way to broaden your horizons and experience a new culture. You can learn about other countries, their history, culture, and traditions by reading books, watching movies, listening to music, and speaking with native speakers. It is a way to break free from your own culture and see the world from a different perspective.Secondly, learning English can help you improve your analytical thinking and problem-solving skills. English is a language that requires precision and accuracy in communication, which helps you develop better analytical and logical thinking.However, learning English can also be challenging. Vocabulary and grammar are two essential components of the language thatrequire time and effort to master. Additionally, pronunciation and accent can be a challenge for some people. But with practice and patience, you can overcome these challenges and become fluent in the language.Therefore, learning English should not be seen as a burden but as an opportunity to learn about different cultures, improve your analytical thinking, and become more confident in speaking a new language. I hope this article has given you an insight into the joy and challenge of learning English.中文部分：大家好，今天我们要探讨英语学习的乐趣与挑战。

But one family has survived four generations and hopes to continue long into the future. The year was 1933 when Ed VanderWal's father first stepped onto the farm. Now 80 years later, Ed carries the passion(热情) his father gave him for farming every daywhile working the fields on the family farm in Volga.“Well, I was in the first grade when my dad moved here to this farm and I grew up on the farm. And that's what I was interested in doing more,” Ed said. But that love of working the land didn't stop with Ed. He's passed it down to his six sons. Some of them run farms of their own now, but two of them, Scott and David, still work side by side with their dad every day.Some people might worry that working sun up to sun down with family seven days a week would lead to a few family spats(争吵). But for the VanderWals, the constant time together works just fine.“When families work together on a farm, it's a challenge at times getting along. Everyone has to pull their weight and do their share. And that, of course, transfers from one generation to the next,” Scott said.And while they all get along like any family, with good days and bad, it's tradition that keeps each generation teaching the next.“But we taught them to work with animals at a young age, like most farmers do. So it's nice to be able to pass that tradition onto the next generation,” Scott said.The youngest generation of the VanderWals, Ed's three grandsons and a granddaughter, all started learning farming techniques at a young age.4.

What should a runner do to get an award according to the text?A. Make a good start．B. Plan for the race early．C. Run slowly on the starting line．D. Try runningquickly all the time．9. What formed the basis for Aftalion's studying horse race?A The experience and data from previous horse races．B. The benefit of knowing horses' different abilities．C. The success in studying runners' winning strategies．D. The performance of horses on different race distances．10. What does the underlined word“devastating”in the last paragraph mean?A. Boring．B. Damaging．C. Astonishing．D. Puzling．11. What can we infer from the text?A. Runners have the same energy output of muscles．B. Aftalion's findings may help horses to win the race．C. What Jockeys and trainers do makes no sense to horses．D. World champion runners made a contribution to the study．DHave you ever been on social media and seen your favorite celebrity talking about a product? These promotions might not be totally random, and are actually seen as a vital part of the marketing process. The question is: How do social media influencers ‘influence’ what you buy?Human desire for status and making friends, combined with our need to belong to a group, makes us receptive to being ‘socially influenced’. Companies often use that desire to have a similar lifestyle to a celebrity we admire to sell or launch a product. So, what do these promotions actually do?Firstly, they can be used to build brand awareness. A social media influencer should have a strong understanding of the platform they operate on, and therefore can create appealing content that not only sticks to the brand image, but sparks their followers’ interests in a product they might never have seen before.Secondly, influencers can improve a company or product’s relationship with their customer base. According to InMoment’s 2018 US Retail CX Trends Report on customer loyalty, 77% of buyers have been brand loyal for more than ten years. This is also true of 60% of millennials. A popular celebrity can target key customers and talk or blog about a product, which can create an instant and lasting bond with them.Lastly, influencers can improve customer buying habits with seemingly ‘unbiased opinions’. We are more likely to respond to ‘peer recommendation’ than traditional ads, meaning the fact we see an influencer as a ‘friend’ can make us less likely to be doubtful about what we are seeing.So, the next time you see a celebrity talking about a product, you might want to consider that this could be a carefully worked-out marketing strategy designed to target your core needs. If you find yourself examining a product you’ve seen on social media, you may well have been influenced.12. Why do companies invite celebrities to launch products?A. Because celebrities can improve the companies’ public images.B. Because consumers like to share similarity with celebrities.C. Because celebrities want to make more money.D. Because consumers can make friends with celebrities.13. According to the passage, which strategy is often used by influencers?A. Setting up operation platforms.B. Sending gifts to customers.C. Improving relationship with the company.D. Taking advantage of their popularity.14. To customers, the recommendations of influencers seem to be ________.A. offensiveB. subjectiveC. objectiveD. misleading15. The passage is mainly about ________.A. how social media make adsB. how social media influence our lifestyleC. how social influencers affect our buyingD. how celebrities earn fame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。

So what’s wrong with purple? It’s such a popular color1 today. Why would no country use it in their flag? The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just for too expensive.The color1 purple has been associated with royalty power and wealth for centuries. Queen Elizabeth I forbade anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it. Purple’s high status comes from the rarity and cost of the dye (染料)originally used to produce it. Fabric traders got the dye from a small sea snail (海螺)that was only found in the Tyre region of the Mediterranean. More than 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of purple; not to mention a lot of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive.Since only wealthy rulers could afford to buy and wear the color1 , it became associated with the royal family. Sometimes, however, the dye was too expensive even for royalty. Third century Roman Emperor Aurelio famously wouldn’t allow his wife to buy a scarf made from purple silk because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today. Therefore, even the richest countries couldn’t spend that much having purple on their flags.The dye became more accessible to lower-class about a century and a half ago. In 1856, 18-year-old English chemist William Henry Perkin accidentally created a man-made purple compound (化合物)while attemptingto produce an anti-malaria drug. He noticed that the compound could be used to dye fabrics, so he patented the dye, manufactured it and got rich. Purple dye was then mass-produced so everybody could afford it.Till now, a handful of new national flags have been designed and a few of them have chosen to use purple in their flag. So don’t be making any bets just yet.4. Why was color1 purple expensive in the past?A. Because only royal families were allowed to wear purple.B. Because it took a long time to get purple dye from gold.C. Because purple was worth as much as its weight in gold.D. Because purple dye used to be rare and hard to produce.5. Why did Roman Emperor Aurelio forbid his wife to buy a purple scarf?A. Because of poor quality.B. Because of long tradition.C. Because of bad taste.D. Because of high price.6. What is purple's situation now?A. Purple has been widely used on national flags.B. Purple dye is now affordable to ordinary people.C. Royal family stop using purple because it’s toocommon.D. Fewer snails are used to produce purple dye than before.7. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. No Purple Flags?B. Purple vs GoldC. How to Produce Purple Dye?D. The Birth of Purple ColorCThe herd of elephants moving north after leaving the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve in Yunnan province has drawn widespread public attention, with tens of millions of people following its movement on TV programs and social media platforms.But this is not because it’s the first time wild Asian Elephants have wandered away from their habitat and headed northward, but for only this time the herd has traveled more than 400 kilometers as far as Kunming. Photographs, videos and stories of the herd’s movement have sparked widespread discussions even overseas.However, there is a need to go behind the “cute photos” and the seemingly “fantastic” event and identify the reasons why wild elephants are leaving their habitat, and find ways to establish harmonious human-animal relationship within habitats and the surrounding forests and human settlements. It is important to scientifically mark the limits of the habitats for elephants and other animals in Xishuangbanna and elsewhere in the country for ecological reasons as well.Planting trees is a key and fundamental step toward restoration of nature. Yet long-term investment and a more scientific approach are needed to maintain the remaining forests as well as to extend the forest cover and strengthen conservation.Nevertheless, tree cover alone doesn’t mean a suitable habitat for all animals, for different species needdifferent types of vegetation to survive and breed. The elephant herd in Yunnan is a reminder that we have to scientifically conserve the existing forests and turn them into suitable habitats for different species of animals and birds, which will ultimately benefit humans.More ambitious targets should be set to rebuild or improve the food chain, and measures taken to ensure forest resources help wildlife flourish, in order to establish a harmonious human-animal relationship.Forests around the globe are still shrinking, particularly those in tropical and developing countries. The next decade therefore will be extremely important for the world’s forests and wildlife, and China can play a leading role in saving them by better protecting its forests and expanding its forest cover.8. Why has the herd of elephants caused so much public interest?A. There exist heated discussions in the whole country even overseas.B. TV programs and social media platforms want to benefit from them.C. They are the first wild Asian Elephants to leave their natural habitat.D. The elephants has traveled a long distance and lived in harmony with humans.9. What can we infer from the third paragraph about the “fantastic” event?A. More research on the reasons behind the event is required.B. Scientists need to limit the habitats for elephants and other animals.C. People should find ways to have a good relationship with elephants.D. There’s an urgent demand for detailed information about the elephants.10. Which method is provided in the passage to restore nature?A. Expanding the coverage of forest.B. Getting the government’s policy support.C. Bringing up various ways to protect the forests.D. Offering more kinds of vegetation to all animals.11. What does this event of elephants leaving their habitats remind us to do?A. To set more goals to change the food chain.B. To be aware of the situation of the existing forests.C. To realize harmonious coexistence of human and nature.D. To reduce the destruction of the forests around the globe.DJack was born without eyes. He was very lucky as he grew up having other kittens (young cats) to socialize (交往)with, and was used to people from the moment he was born. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up.That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no one would like to take him”. Without thinking I told her that I did want the kitten.When we first brought him home, Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had noissues running around and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, he’ll stop. But we just call his name and talk to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us.A few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new cat named Bear. Jack and Bear have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can’t see. He always knows when Bear is around. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They run after each other around and wrestle (摔跤). They’ll lie down in the grass together when tired.Jack is truly an inspiration. I’ve owned lots of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest and most playful. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. He doesn’t need pity. I think Jean, owner of Gumbo, another eyeless cat, said it best when she told me that cats don’t have disabilities; they have adaptability.12. Why did Jack come to the author’s home?A. The author cared for an eyeless cat.B. The author didn’t mind whether he was blind.C. No other young cats kept him company.D. The author’s friend begged the author to take him home.13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Jack often wrestles with Bear indoors.B. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat.C. Jack quickly adapts to the new environment.D. Jack is good at talking and playing with people.14. What does the underlined word “issue” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Trouble.B. Fun.C. Luck.D. Business.15. What does the passage mainly tell us?A. A cat has nine lives.B. All is well that ends well.C. God helps those who help themselves.D. A good beginning makes a good ending.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。
