2019届宁夏银川市高三4月教学质量检测英语试卷【含答案及解析】姓名___________ 班级____________ 分数__________一、阅读理解1. I got invited to go with some friends to a game at another school. A senior will be driving us, and I think she’s a good driver, but it’s someone my parents don’t know. I want to tell my parents where I’m going, but what if I ask and they say “no”? I’ll e nd up wishing I never mentioned it and just went ahead and did it anyway.If you want more privileges, it’s best to build a track record of honesty and trust. Letting a par ent know where you’re going is always a good idea.You may worry that telling y our parents puts you at risk of getting “no”for an answer. But there’s a good chance your parents might be OK with you going. If you go but don’t tell them, you risk losing something moreimportant —your parents’ trust.Parents who find out their kids did something behind their backs may be less likely to give permission to do things in the future. When trust is brokenlike this, parents wonder if teens are trying to hide something — and what they imagine can be far worse than the reality.Before you talk to your parents about the game, think about which approachwill help them feel most comfortable with giving you more freedom. Maybethey’d like to meet the person driving or talk to friends who have drivenwith her in the past. If your parents have questions or hesitate about letting you go, find out what their worries are and then do your best to answer them.1. From Paragraph 1 we know that the writer _________.A. appears nervousB. feels confusedC. looks worriedD. seems discouraged2. What is the best way to get parents’ permission according to the passage?A. To get more privileges from them.B. To risk gaining their permission.C. To keep off the track of reality.D. To be honest a nd win their trust.3. What does the writer really want to tell us?A. Which effective approach to use.B. How to deal with strict parents.C. How to win over parents.D. How to get freedom from parents.4. Who do you think the passage is intended for?A. Parents.B. Friends.C. Drivers.D. Teenagers.2. Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support,passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”.Nitrogen(氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi(真菌)networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神经元)inour brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealthto the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awarenessof these highly complex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“We didn't take any notice of it .” Simard says sadly . “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them a chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.1. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB. Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC. Trees Are More Complex Than You ThinkD. Trees Contribute To Our Society2. In Simard's opinion, trees _______ .A. depend on each otherB. protect their own wealthC. compete for survivalD. provide support for dying trees3. We can learn from the passage thatA. “mother trees” are usually of no use to other trees.B. Charles Darwin had the same thought as Simard.C. people know much about the complex “tree societies”.D. if “mother trees” are cut down, the survival for the entire forest will be affected.4. The unde rlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .A. how trees grow oldB. how “tree societies” workC. how forestry industry developsD. how young trees survive3. New Yorkers and visitors to the Big Apple will get to ring in the Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year in the USA, in style with a fireworks display on the Hudson River set to music written by Academy Award-winning composer Tan Dun.The display is part of the second annual “Happy Chinese New Year: Fantastic Art China” festiva l held in New York on February 5-10, 2016. The ChinaCentral Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA), the USA-China Cultural Institute and the Cultural Associate of the Committee of 100 announced this year’s events on November 18 at a press conference at the Lincoln Center.The “Fantastic Art China” festival will feature a larger and more diverse series of artistic and cultural events across New York’s top cultural venues (地点) and landmarks, including the Lincoln Cen ter, Empire State Building and Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.This year’s theme focuses on exploring the complicated relationship between sound and image, said Professor Yu Ding from CAFA, who is also president of Fantastic Art China and in charge of the festival’s design. Lunar New Year, which cele brates the “Year of the Monkey” in 2016, is an opportunity tobring China’s modern art to mainstream America, and the festival serves as an innovative approach to establishing cultural exchange between China and New York City, Yu said.UNESCO Goodwill Amb assador Tan Dun’s music is a new edition that will be featured at several venues, including a major art exhibition at the Javits Center, events at the Lincoln Center and the fireworks display on the Hudson, which will take place on the evening of February 6. Five barges (游艇) on theriver will launch the fireworks designed by CAFA that will tell a story about celebration and conservation.“We Chinese are fond of nature, so the best way to celebrate the Lunar New Year is to salute with the sounds of nature, such as sounds of water, stone and bamboo,” said Tan Dun at the press conference, “And it will be fun to use the music of water during the fireworks display.”In addition to the fireworks, a special lighting show at the Empire State Building will shine on New York City during the holiday.Chinese New Year is being recognized as a public school holiday for the first time in New York. Children from the National Dance Institute, which represents 75 schools, will perform traditional Chinese dances at the Lincoln Center and the Javits Center. And, in celebration of the “Year of the Monkey”, events will feature a conservation message about the endangered golden monkey in China.1. The theme of this year’s celebration is centered on ________.A. relationship between sound and image of natureB. diversity of Chinese traditional festivalsC. endangered species and environmental protectionD. cultural exchange between China and America2. The coming “Year of the Monkey” is to be celebrated in New York by________.A. sailing on the Hudson River along with a new-year speechB. setting off fireworks and holding a special lighting showC. holding a special concert at the Empire State BuildingD. taking a week off and organizing Chinese dance contests3. Wha t does the underlined word “shine on” (in Para. 7) most probably mean?A. lighten.B. surround.C. decorate.D. broaden.4. This passage is written mainly in order to ________.A. compare some traditional festivals in China and AmericaB. attract visitors to America for the coming new-year celebrationC. report celebration activities for the “Year of the Monkey” in New YorkD. strengthen the cultural co-operation between China and America4.

The first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. They were hunters and gatherers of food who used stone tools and weapons. But the BritishIsles only became islands separate from the rest of Europe about 8, 500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!3, 000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombsfor their dead. Many of these ________s can still be seen.Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4, 500 years ago. Stonehenge is the world's most famous prehistoric monument. We don't know what it meant or what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.3, 000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before, and people had to move down from high ground. A bit later iron started to be sued for tools and weapons instead of bronze. Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don't have any written record of Britain until the Romans came, almost 300 years after he did!(1)This passage mainly tells us________.A The dawn of history in BritainB How English Channel was formedC How the British made a living millions of years agoD When humans appeared on the British Isles.(2)In this passage "the man﹣made hill" probably refers to________.A The small islands in BritainB Earthworks for protection and as tombsC The amazing StonehengeD The farms opened up by the first man.(3)Why did people move to low ground 3,000 years ago?________A Because iron tools were used for farmingB Because the climate made it unfit for manto live there C Because more people arrived from southern Europe D Because the Celts forced them to do so.(4)Only after________ do people have written records about Britain.A the arrival of the CeltsB Stonehenge was begunC Pytheas's visitD the Romans came.3. The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment. These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.David Tilman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how a diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized(工业化), population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people beganto get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk of noninfectious diseases like diabetes(糖尿病)and heart disease.Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, theyare going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. Chinais an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20﹣year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on.And, a diet bad for human beings is also bad for the environment. As the world's population grows, more forests and tropical(热带的)areas will become farmlands for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in the future from agriculture than that coming out of all forms of transportation right now.Mr Tilman calls the link between the diet, the environment and human health, "a trilemma"﹣a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leavingthe Western diet behind.(1)According to the passage, more greenhouse gas might be given off in the futurefrom________.A transportationB developing countriesC agricultureD developed countries.(2)David Tilman believes that________.A the diet, the environment and human health are closely connectedB the Western diet is the only choice as the nation industrializesC people in tropical areas are more likely to have heart diseaseD traditional diets are more balanced than the Western diet.(3)We can infer from the passage that________.A Nigeria has the largest number of diabetes casesB overweight people are at higher risk of infectious diseasesC the examined information comes from developing countriesD industrialization contributes to the spread of the Western diet.(4)The main purpose of the passage is to________.A call on us to protect the environmentB warn us of the danger of the Westerndiet C remind us of the importance of health D advise us to have a balanced diet.4. Mr. Selfridge, the Wisconsin﹣born retailer (零售商) who left school at 14, rose to become a partner in Marshall Field's. Chicago. Founded in 1852, it was one of the first and most ambitious US department scores. Mr. Selfridge had done well with Marshall Field's. He liked to say, "The customer is always right, " which made the Chicago store popular. And he is believed to have invented the phrase "Only [so many] Shopping Daysuntil Christmas".When he visited London on holiday in 1906 he was surprised to find most of the city's department stores were no match of their American and Parisian competitors. This led Selfridge to leave the US and establish Selfridges. a department store named after him. at the west end of London's Oxford Street. In Oxford Street, Selfridge's design team shaped an ambitious classical palacc building with a wall of plate glass windows.Opened in 1909, Selfridges offered customers a hundred departments along withrestaurants, a roof garden, reading and writing rooms, reception areas for foreign visitors, a first aid room and. most importantly, a small army of knowledgeable floor﹣walking assistants who served as guides as well as being thoroughly instructed in the art of making a sale.Mr. Selfridge did much to make the department store a destination rather than just a big and comprehensively stocked city shop. It became a place to meet and for ladies to lunch. Mr. Selfridge later introduced the department store as a key element of the 20th Century culture, and Chaplin acknowledged the growing trend for shopping in the department store in his film The Floorwalker.(1)What can be learned about Mr. Selfridge from Paragraph I ?________A lie was well﹣educated.B He was a gifted businessman.C He was a modest man.D He was dishonest..(2)What made Selfridge build a department store in London?________A The large population in London.B His desire to own a departmentstore. C His confidence in business success. D Affection for London architecture..(3)What was Selfridges' most impressive characteristic?________A The number of departments.B The broad choice of goods.C The small group of guards.D The well﹣trained sales guides..(4)What is the main purpose of the article?________A To introduce the history of Selfridge.B To compare different department stores.C To encourage readers to spend more.D To explain how to start a department store.三.第二节(共1小题;每题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,选项中有两项为多余选项.5.Home on the WayPeople need homes.

2019-2020学年宁夏银川一中高三英语第四次联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AIt was a weeknight and one of my twin daughters marched into the room, waving a book she'd finished. “Dad, why are books with science in them always about boys?” she asked.I told her that simply wasn't true; there were loads of great science fictions with girls in them. She agreed, but argued that in those stories it was the boys who were doing science, and the girls were justalong for the ride. My other daughter took her sister's side and challenged me to give an example.This left me in a difficult position. I could either go through our library to point out some wonderful examples of female-led science fictions, or just admit they were right and remain in my comfortable chair.I've been asked several times how I came up with the idea forA Problematic Paradoxand my answer is always the same: it came to me in a moment of inspiration. I like that answer because it's simple and makes me seem very creative. The fact that this explanation is not true bothers me from time to time. Here's the truth: the story wasn't my idea. It was my daughters who suggested I write something for them that had a girl doing science.My daughters were at an age when many young women turn away from STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), believing those areas of study unfriendly or out-of-the-norm for girls. I also read about how important role models can be to young people. It's one thing to tell a person they can do something, but seeing someone like them doing that thing can be more powerful.So, I kept two guidelines for the book in mind: First, the story had to be fun for anyone, because it's as important for boys to understand that science is for everyone. Second, I wanted the main character, Nikola, to be imperfect. She should be someone with shortcomings as we all have. I think this not only makes a story more interesting to read, but also helps make it clear that the most extraordinary things can be done by ordinary people.1. What does the underlined phrase “along for the ride” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Entering a bike race.B. Offering vital help.C. Doing unimportant things.D. Playing the leading role.2. What do we know about the bookA Problematic Paradox1?A. Its main character is perfect.B. It is a female-led science fiction.C. It is intended to appeal to girls only.D. Its idea comes from the author's inspiration.3. Which of the following best describes the author's book?A. Serious and abstract.B. Simple and practical.C. Creative and well-organized.D. Inspiring and interesting.BIn someareas ofCalifornia, it’s so dry that farmers aren’t willing to plant crops this season. Growers, north ofSan Francisco, have begun pulling out of local farmers markets.CountyLineHarvest, which farms more than 30 acres inPetaluma, hasn’t had enough water to grow all the peppers, lettuces and other produce for a long time, according to a video on its Instagram page. Nearby farms arc saying the same, emphasizing (强调) the effect of theextendeddry periods.Californiagrows a third of theUnited States' vegetables and two-thirds of the nation's fruits and nuts. If dry weather prevents farmers from growing plants, that could lead to pushing up the price of food that's already starting to affect theU.S.economy.“Due to severe drought, for the first time in 21 years, we will not be able to grow this summer inPetaluma,"CountyLinesaid in its post.Drew Lerner, president of World Weather Inc. inKansas, saidCalifornia“missed the rainy season" and won't see much moisture (水分) over the next several months.A La Nina weather pattern in the Pacific pushed winter storms north and away from the state, leaving it with less moisture than usual. AsCaliforniagets most of its water from winter storms, little relief is expected before October.That has left growers such as Shao Shan Fann in a bind. The business can’t offer the selection of Asian vegetables and Bay Area staples it usually grows at its Bolinas location, according to its website.Nearby, Green Valley Community Farm has access to only about 5% of the water it usually relies on, owner David Plescia said. He’s looking for new land with enough water to use, and also has a permit in the works to grow cannabis to make up for the lost income. If it doesn’t make it, he’ll leave the fields empty.“It’s part of our generation’s cross to bear, figuring out how to run small — or medium-scale farm businesses in this kind of atmosphere of highly variable rainfall,” Andrew said.4. What does the underlined word “extended” in the second paragraph mean?A. Hot.B. Short.C. Long.D. Wonderful.5. Which is the result if the dry weather stops famers from planting crops?A. Theincreaseinthe priceof food.B. The growth of economy inU.S.C.Lessmoisture than usual.D. The low price of Asian vegetables.6. From what Andrew said, we can infer (推断) all of the following statements EXCEPT that________.A. The climate is not very goodB. It is part of the burden for people of his generationC. It is hard for him to run his farm businesses insuch bad climateD. He is sure that the serious drought will come to an end soon7. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How do the famers run businesses inCalifornia.B. How does the owner look for new land with enough waterC. California farmers facing drought choose not to plant crops.D. The farm economy of theUnited Stateshas changed a lot.CAn ancient tomb was recently discovered in southern Siberia in which there may be treasure, priceless objects, and the 3, 000-year-old remains of an ice mummy.Swiss scientist Gino Caspari with the University of Bern was looking carefully at the pictures of the area in the Russian Tuva Republic, when he came across what appeared to be a tomb. It is a tomb of the Scythians, an ancient group of Eurasians.This summer, together with researchers from the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Hermitage Museum, a dig at the site not only proved Caspari's idea, but told us the site is the largest and oldest of its kind ever discovered in what's increasingly known as the “Siberian Valley of the Kings.”While any discovery dating back to a period between the Iron Age and Bronze Age is exciting, it's the nature of this site that makes scientists want to begin carefully clearing away the layers of rock and earth. First, the tomb appears to have never been dug, because it is in a Siberian wetland faraway from the nearest place where people live. Second, and most important, is its possible resting place under a thick layer of permafrost.“There's permafrost in the area,” Caspari said. “There are really only a handful of permafrost tombs and very few that have not been damaged, where there have been ice mummies in good condition, and all the things in the tomb are untouched.”While not as large, other tombs discovered in the area have produced fantastical treasures and objects, including thousands of gold objects and other things about the past. By studying all these tombs, researchers hope to have a better understanding of the Scythian people.Caspari said his team is in a race against time to uncover the tomb and find out its secrets. “We now have to act fast,” he said, “because with the rising temperatures, the permafrost could melt and damage all the things in that tomb. And these are things that are over 3,000 years old, that look like new, like they were put there yesterday.”8. How did Caspari discover the tomb?A. By studying pictures.B. By visiting a Russian area.C. By talking with Russian researchers.D. By comparing other scientists,ideas.9. Why has the tomb remained untouched?A. It is covered by a lot of rocks.B. It is well kept by the Scythians.C. It is too small to draw attention.D. It is hidden in a wild cold place.10. Why do scientists want to uncover the tomb?A. To better protect the tomb.B. To save the treasures inside.C. To learn more about the Scythians.D. To have a good understanding of mummies.11. Why is Caspari's team racing against time to dig the tomb?A. The tomb is too old.B. It is getting hotter and hotter.C. Some treasures are being damaged.D. They want to save time for other tombs.DI was in the second year of my Ph. D. program when a colleague asked what I would do if I had an extra hour every day. Without much consideration, I said I would use it to help others. The question kept coming to my mind. Like many graduate students, I was overwhelmed (难以承受的) with research, teaching, coursework, and some attempt at a personal life. Still, I asked myself, "Do I really need a 25th hour to help other people-or do I need to make better use of the 24 hours I have?"I needed something to help me return to my old self. After that conversation with my colleague, I googled (谷歌搜索) “volunteer opportunities near me”. A local organization that drives people to stores or appointments was looking for volunteers. Having grown up in a rural village where everyone knew oneanother and my grandparents were always close by, I thought serving senior citizens in my new hometown might be just what I needed.A short time later, I started to volunteer for an organization that provides transportation for senior citizens and people with disabilities. To my surprise, adding this activity to my busy life was just what I needed to calm the confusion I was feeling as a first-generation international graduate student.I started to volunteer about 3 hours every weekend, the time I otherwise would have wasted oversleeping orscrolling (滚屏) through social media. Sharing stories with my riders was much more rewarding. What they told me about their lives helped me realize that in every corner of the world, humans are connected with the languageof emotions. And seeing how eager my riders were to spend time out and about inspired me to think about how to spend my time, which used to slip away. My previously overwhelming schedule began to feel manageable.I'm proud of who I have become, and I continue to reflect on how I'm using the most valuable thing in life: my time.12. Why did the author ask himself the question in Paragraph 1?A. He wanted to return to normal life.B. He was busy but wanted to help others.C. He couldn't bear too much school work.D. He couldn't answer his colleague's question.13. How did the author find the volunteer job?A. A colleague recommended it.B. A local organization offered it.C. He got it from his grandparents.D. He got it by surfing on the Internet.14. What made the author feel his volunteer job was worth doing?A. Communicating with his riders.B. Improving his language learning.C. Meeting his grandparents often.D. Realizing his previous dream.15. How did volunteering influence the author?A. It helped himbecome confident and efficient.B. He found a good way to live a free and quiet life.C. He realized he had wasted too much time pursuing his Ph.D.D. It inspired him to spare more time to accompany his grandparents.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。

As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes. They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day’s work.The student turned to the professor, saying, “Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them.”“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him. ”The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes. While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, but feeling something hard, he bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face.He fixed his eyes on the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again. He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. His feelings overcame him. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and cried a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke ofhis wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom the timely help, from some unknown hand, would save from dying.The student stood there, deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?”The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.”25. The student wanted to pl ay the poor man a trick to ______.A. find the truthB. show his wisdomC. amuse himselfD.teach him a lesson26. After finding the two coins, the man felt_________.A. helplessB. interestedC. peacefulD. thankful27. What does the story intend to tell us?A. A small act of kindness brings great joy.B. God helps those who help themselves.C. Where there is a will, there is a way.D. Actions speak louder than words.CLife in the ClearTransparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are vi sible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead inits tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a trans parent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much. Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent object doesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it ----you see the things behind it.To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials----skin, fat, and more----and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see-through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-like (果冻状的) material and spread themselves over it .Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how they’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear: for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn non-transparent milky white.28.

One way for an animal to become transparent is to _______.A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter light.C. avoid the ab sorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light.31. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals________.A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreadingD“Down the streets of Portsmouth more than two hundred years ago,” said Lt.General Ira C. Eaker in a speech, “walked a sailor with one arm and one eye. Indeed he would probably have been in a home for incurables were his name not Horatio Nelson. The man’s spirit drove the flesh.”Born in 1758, Nelson was a small and weak child who loved sailing. As a young teenager he joined the British Navy and, while on a journey, caught a fever that seriously damaged his health. But he never allowed this to hold him back. At 18 he was appointed a lieutenant (上尉) in the Royal Navy and by the year 1803 was made commander-in-chief of the British fleet (舰队).Two years later, on 21 October, at the Battle of Trafalgar, Nelson defeated the combined French and Spanish fleets. This naval victory left the British in control of the seas for the rest of the 1800’s. Unfortunately, Nelson was fatally (致命地) wounded during Trafalgar but lived long enough to know that his fleet had won the battle.Nelson believed in his country, in his cause, and in himself. He proved this with his words and more so with his life.The British philosopher John Stuart Mill would agree. He said, “One person with a belief is equal to a force of ninety-nine w ho only have interest.” Why is this so? Beliefs are remarkably powerful in that they are to our lives what a rudder (舵) is to a ship. That is, they control the direction of our lives. Simply put, if I believe I am a failure, I will set myself up to fail. If I believe I am a successful person, I will succeed.Dr. Joyce Brothers, well-known author and psychologist said, “A person’s self-concept is the central part of his personality. It affects every aspect of human behavior. It’s no exaggeration (夸张) to say that a strong positive self-concept is the best possible preparation for success in life.”32. Which of the following can be used to describe Nelson?A. Honest and modest.B. Cautious and friendly.C. Brave and determined.D. Considerate and optimistic.33. Why does the author mention the rudder and the ship?A. To explain the key role of beliefs.B. To show the importance of rudders.C. To explain the beliefs of John Stuart Mill.D. To show the difficulty of controlling directions.34. What is important for success according to the last paragraph?A. Ability.B. Courage.C. Character.D.Confidence.35. What is the text mainly about?A. A UK philosopher’s ideas.B. An unusual British sailor.C. The Battle of Trafalgar.D. The power of beliefs.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。
