A. reminding B. remembering C. recalling D. reformingSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Not many people know about the clouded leopard. Even scientists don’t know much about the animal in the wild because it is so private. We do know that the clouded leopard isn’t actually a leopard. It is a species of its own. However, it does have spots like a leopard. They help it blend into the background in the forest.What else do we know about the cat? It is one of the best climbers of all wild cats. This skill is clearly imprinted in the kittens early on by their mothers and by instinct. In the wild, the cat lives in the tropical rain forests of Asia. It hunts small animals, such as squirrels and monkeys. It is listed on the United States Endangered Species Act. This protects it from being hunted. Scientists have speculated that the wild population is getting smaller, but no actual numbers are available.The Clouded Leopard Project works to conserve and protect the population of these cats. The project teaches about clouded leopards, analyzing their habits in captivity by watching their behaviors and interactions. The project realizes it is important to the cats’ survival to breed the animals in zoos. If more clouded leopards aren’t born, the population will be pushed quickly into extinction.The Clouded Leopard Project has recently begun a conservation effort in Thailand. It is a natural home of the clouded leopard. Funds will be given to the Khao Kheow Open Zoo to help with the breeding of these cats. Part of the money also will help save the habitat of the wild cats. People will work to monitor these wild cats. They will be photographed instead of being sedated, or drugged, to be tagged(加标签). Sedating clouded leopards could cause the cats’ bodies to lose too much water, or worse.The project has had some great successes in the last few years. Two cubs were born in the United States, and two were born in Thailand. Members of the Clouded Leopard Project hope the urge to protect such species will become embedded in people’s minds. They sponsor several education programs at zoos. They also sponsor programs to directly help the cats. Through their work they ultimately will increase the population of this species.65. What made a clouded leopard not easy to find in the forest?A. Spots like a leopard.B. A species of its own.C. Best climbing skills.D. Extinction of such animals.66. _____ is not included in the Clouded Leopard Project?A. Breeding clouded leopards in zoos.B. Monitoring the cats by labeling them.C. Starting educational programs at zoos.D. Sa ving the cat’s natural habitat.67. The underlined word “embedded” means _____.A. focusedB. rootedC. determinedD. talented68. Which of the following statement is TRUE?A. Clouded leopard is a rare kind of leopard with nice spots.B. Lack of food in the wild makes the survival of the cats more difficult.C. The Clouded Leopard Project aims at increasing the population of the cat.D. Observing clouded leopards’ behavior protects the cats from being hunted.(B)(C)With greenhouse gas emissions(排放)hitting record levels and passing climate scientist's worst predictions, a new group of Chinese activists is making its voice heard at the United Nations climate talks, the COP17, which was held in Durban, South Africa.The delegation of independent Chinese non-governmental organizations (NGOs) believes that civil society must play a bigger role in the global climate crisis. C Plus is the name given to the project launched by 42 Chinese NGOs, calling for domestic and global action to fight climate change. And they think the best way of demanding governments' action is to take action by themselves. The message is clear: climate action is too important and too urgent. It can't wait. The top-down process of negotiations that we are seeing at the UN is too slow.C Plus has three components, which together explain its name. C Plus stands for: Beyond Commitment. This means that NGOs must put pressure on their governments to achieve targets that are beyond those that have been officially stated. Second is Beyond China -- in other words, NGOs outside and inside of China together must strive to influence their respective governments to take action. Finally, Beyond Climate. The project targets not just carbon reduction but other environmental measures as well such as clean water and air, public education, water conservation and preservation of forests.In the last few years, NGOs have played an active role in influencing the government's policy making, supervising the government's task of environment responsibility and raising public awareness in environment protection.And NGOs can claim some notable successes. NGOs sponsored “26-degree air conditioning office” among the public, which later became a government regulation. A group of Chinese citizens organized together and stopped the construction of a dangerous chemical plant in Xiamen.In total, there are 3,539 environment NGOs in China, in which 55.2 percent now have their own offices, and 26 percent have fixed source of investment. However, most environment NGOs still face problems including difficulty in raising money, shortage in personnel and weak organization ability in their development process.In Durban, Chinese NGOs have arrived as a team and are prepared to state their demands.72. The passage is mainly about _____.A. Durban climate change conferenceB. environment NGOs in ChinaC. C plus project launched by NGOsD. achievements of NGOs73. Which of the following is true about the C Plus?A. It is an organization devoted to controlling the greenhouse gas emission.B. It is a program aiming at influencing government to take action to protect environment.C. It is a project designed by the government to unite NGOs inside and outside China.D. It is a statement calling for public awareness in environment protection.74. Most environment NGOs don’t lack _____.A. financial supportB. human resourcesC. development goalsD. organizational skills75. What can be inferred from the passage about the NGOs?A. They once pushed the government to make a regulation concerning office temperature.B. They pushed forward the slow negotiations by adopting the top-down style.C. They were directly involved in making environment-related policies.D. They successfully pressurized the government to achieve the unofficially stated targets. Section CDirections:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.Autism is a disorder of early development that causes severe problems in thinking, communicating with others, and feeling a part of the outside world. Taken from the Greek word autos meaning “alone,” autism prevents children from developing normal social relationships, even with their parents.Not all autistic infants and children are alike; in fact, there is no single typical clinical picture of the disorder. However, certain types of behavior are noted in a majority of autistic children. Autistic infants will not cuddle, and they do not like to be picked up. The usual things that children do to imitate adults, such as waving goodbye, are not observed in autistic children. Instead, autistic children very often repeat such movements as flicking a hand, twisting an arm or leg, or banging the head over and over. Strange gestures and distorted facial expressions are common.Language develops slowly, if at all. Some autistic children remain totally silent, while others merely repeat words they hear or communicate by gestures. They have little or no interest in making friends. They smile rarely, if ever, and will avoid making eye contact. Unlike normal children, they tend to fixate on a single object or task, such as spinning the wheels on a toy car over and over.At one time autism was blamed on bad parenting. Now it is believed to be caused by abnormalities in the brain. Several possible causes of these abnormalities have been proposed: an illness the mother suffered during her pregnancy; too little oxygen at the time of birth; or possibly an abnormal gene. In some cases, X rays have revealed abnormalities in the structure of the brain itself. There is no way to diagnose autism apart from observing the child's behavior closely over a period of time.Although some patient-tailored programs can help children function better, the life of these children is generally hard to predict. Some will remain severely impaired throughout their lives. A majority always will depend heavily on support from relatives and professional caregivers, and may require special living arrangements and close supervision. However, progressive changes in the treatment of these children have enabled about one in six to live independentlyand work productively. What’s more, the intelligence level of the child partly affects the ability to function.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.If you have been following the news you will know that the world’s population recently reached seven billion – probably on 31st October.The statistics concerning human population growth are astonishing. It was only 12 years ago, in 1999, that the world’s population reached six billion. In 1969 there were 3.5 billion people on the planet, which is to say our numbers have doubled in only 42 years. A century ago, in 1911, there were only 1.8 billion of us: 26% of today’s total.As for future population growth, it seems there will probably be eight billion people by 2030 and nine billion by around 2050. After that, predictions vary: many experts think the total will rise more slowly, perhaps reaching ten billion by the end of the century; but a few believe the fast rise might continue, leading to a global population of as many as 15 billion by 2100.There are big differences between rates of population growth around the world. The fastest rates are generally in the world’s poorer countries, including those in sub-Saharan Africa, while the populations of rich countries are mostly growing much more slowly, or even shrinking in a few cases. (Germany and Japan, for example, will have smaller populations in 2050 than they do now.) This fact explains another interesting statistic: in 1900 Europe contained around 25% of the world’s people, but in 2050 it will have less than 10%.There are many reasons for fast population growth, but the most significant include medical advances and generally improved standards of living in poor countries, which mean fewer deaths from diseases or from malnutrition. Indeed, average life expectancy across the world has risen 20 years since the 1950s, from 48 to 68, and the biggest rises have been in poor countries.Some people already talk of a crisis of overpopulation, expecting there to be wars over access to natural resources and warning that, because those resources are limited, it is impossible for seven billion people (let alone nine or ten) to have the kind of high-consumption lifestyles that people in the world’s richer countries currently enjoy. Others, however, believe the planet can accommodate another two or three billion humans without a social or environmental disaster.We can only hope the optimists will be proved right.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS) 81. When was the world’s population half of what it is now?82. There seems to be a connection between a country’s rates of population and_________________________________________.83. What contributed to the fast population growth?84. Some people predicted that the conflict between _______________________ may lead towars.第II卷(共45分)I.Translation (20%)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 是到了我们为国家承担责任的时候了。

D.It saves you time for cooking.BPerhaps thousands of people have searched for a bronze chest full of gold and jewels hidden in the Rocky Mountains between Santa Fe and the Canadian border hidden by a millionaire adventurer. At least four people died in their search for the treasure.But it's all over now. Fenn's Treasure has been found. The 89-year-old adventurer named Forrest Fenn, who created the treasure hunt, announced the news via his website. “I don't know the person who found it, but the poem in my book led him to the precise spot,” Fenn wrote. “The treasure was confirmed by a photograph the lucky finder sent me.”Forrest Fenn, the man who started the hunt, lives in Santa Fe. He was a pilot in the Vietnam War and later accumulated his wealth as a dealer in art and antiques. Fenn was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer in 1988 and had planned to die peacefully in the woods with his treasure. But when his cancer became less serious, he changed his plan, eventually writing the poem that described his dream resting place, which is where he hid the treasure. The poem appeared in a memoir called The Thrill of the Chase. Fenn said that the chest wouldn't be found by accident; only a treasure hunter who correctly interpreted the clues(线索) would find it.Several treasure hunters went missing while attempting to find the chest, including hunter Jeff Murphy and Mike Petersen, both of whom went missing in Yellowstone National Park in 2017. Fenn said that he had never been to the Yellowstone National Park, and that the treasure was not in a dangerous place. "It was in thethick forest of the Rocky Mountains and had not been moved from the spot where I hid it more than 10 years ago," Fenn wrote on his website. It is illegal to remove anything from a national park, which would cause trouble in legally claiming the treasure if it was found there.4.What contributed to the finding of the treasure?A.Fenn's announcement. B.A poem in Fenn's book.C.Fenn’s vivid description.D.A photo on Fenn's website.5.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.Who Forrest Fenn was. B.Where Fenn hid the treasure.C.How the treasure hunt began. D.What Fenn did to find the treasure.6.What can we learn about "Fenn's Treasure”?A.It was in Yellowstone National Park.B.It was found by someone by chance.C.It was moved from one place to another.D.It was in Fenn's chosen resting place.7.What does the underlined word “claiming” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Taking. B.Burying. C.Protecting. D.Acknowledging.CNot buying things can be difficult, even when you're determined not to. For many people, a no-buy year is simply a way of life because their financial situation leaves them no other choice. But for others—myself included—we have enough clothes, shoes, electronic devices, books, and so on. Yet, we continue to buy.If you're going to try a no-buy year, the first step is identifying why you're doing it. Is it to save money? Pay off debt? Have more money for experiences? To be more sustainable? Without a goal, failure is likely. I say this based on my experience.Last year, I wanted to take my sons on vacation where I could afford the rental and good meals. So I set a goal. That goal was not to buy anything I didn't need. A month before we went, I realized I needed to do more.I decided that I wouldn't spend money going out socially. I eventually reached my goal.After vacation, I went back to my regular spending habits. But I wonder what would have happened if I'd maintained the stricter habits. There are many experiences I would love to have—concerts and music festivals are at the top of the list. Yet, I often buy little things—like $20 shoes instead of tickets to concerts. If I could forgo those little things, I would probably go to a lot more concerts.I think the no-buy movement is something that would bring us some happiness. Still, it's difficult. Eventhough we're surrounded by things, we manage to convince ourselves that none of those things are the “perfect” things for our immediate need.I'm going to set another goal right now. That goal is to go to a big music festival at the end of the summer. To get there, I promise I won't spend money on the things I don't really need. Nowadays, I encourage you to spend some time thinking about what your goals are and how about buying nothing—or at least buying a lot less—can help you reach them.8.Why did the author not continue her social activities?A.To pay off her debt. B.To accompany her sons.C.To realize her sons' goals. D.To save money for their vacation.9.What does the underlined word “forgo” mean in Paragraph 4?A.Quit. B.Afford.C.Maintain. D.Rent.10.What does the author think of the no-buy movement?A.It is beneficial but hard to carry out.B.It shows the true meaning of happiness.C.It finds fault with current spending habits.D.It gives way to big music festivals and musicals.11.What would the best title probably be?A.The No- Buy Movement Is PopularB.Could You Handle A No-Buy Year?C.Financial Situation Affects What We Can BuyD.Do What You Like Even If You May Meet TroubleDThe area around Taal Lake on Luzon Island in the Philippines is known for its natural beauty. Tourism is popular there as travelers go there to see the scenery that surrounds Taal Volcano, one of the most active volcanoes in the country. It was quiet for years until January 12, 2020 when the volcano erupted. Since then, the cities surrounding the volcano have been covered with ash and many people are forced to leave home.But the ash didn't stop the residents of Binan, a city that is 35 km south of Manilla, from finding a way to help their neighbors in the towns that suffered the most from Taal. Binan Mayor Walfredo Dimaguila ordered the city residents to collect the ash and to put it in sacks (麻袋) to be sent to the state-owned factory that can produce 5,000 bricks a day to turn it into bricks to use for rebuilding damaged communities.“What we plan is to turn them into hollow blocks and bricks and sell them to interested companies,” Dimaguila said. But he noted, the money would be donated to the people directly affected by the volcano. “When Batangas (the region where Taal is located) is in recovery, the bricks can not only be used to build schools, community halls and livelihood centers but also help deal with ash pollution for the earth,” Dimaguila said. “The misfortune of our neighbors in Batangas is there. Let's transform this into opportunity.”The Philippines, located in the Pacific “Ring of Fire: zone of fire” and part of the typhoon belt, is a country that is known for natural disasters like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and major storms. But the Filipino people show their strong will and community spirit.12.What has happened to Taal Volcano?A.It attracts more and more visitors. B.It becomes quieter and quieter.C.It is covered with ash completely. D.It causes bad effects on the locals.13.What are people advised to do according to Walfredo Dimaguila?A.To collect volcanic ash for recycling. B.To save sacks for factories to use.C.To set up a factory for making bricks. D.To build communities for people from disasters. 14.What can we infer from Dimaguila's words in Paragraph 3?A.Companies are expected to donate money.B.Bricks made of volcanic ash are popular.C.Batangas has been the most misfortune.D.Turning ash into bricks benefits the earth.15.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Taal Lake on Luzon Island is destroyed. B.Taal Volcano has enjoyed popularity.C.Disasters always hit the Philippines. D.The Filipino people turn ash into treasure.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。

conference where chef Jamie Oliver had spoken about the benefits of healthy eating.This made Musk think a lot—how he might make a difference to the food industry—but beyond expanding his farm-to-table movement along with his restaurant,Musk hadn’t yet broken the code.Then he went sailing down a snowy slope(坡)and fell over,breaking his neck.Musk eventually made a full recovery,but it involved spending two months on his back, which gave him plenty of time to come up with a plan.Since then,he has launched an initiative to put“learning gardens”in public schools across America;attracted Generation Z to the farming profession by changing shipping containers into high-tech,data-driven,year-round farms;and this year,is kicking off a new campaign to create one million at-home gardens.Aimed at reaching low-income families,the Million Gardens Movement was inspired by the pandemic,as both a desire to feel more connected to nature and food insecurity have been at the forefront of so many people’s lives.“We were getting a lot of inquiries about gardening from people that had never gardened before,”says Musk.“People were looking to garden for a bunch of reasons:to save money on groceries,to improve the nutritional quality of their diets,or just to cure the boredom that came with the lockdown.”The program offers free garden kits that can be grown indoors or outdoors,and will be distributed through schools that Musk’s non-profit,Big Green,has already partnered with.It also offers free courses on how to get the garden growing and fresh seeds and materials forthe changing growing seasons.“It’s not difficult.Anyone can do this,no matter where you come from,no matter where you live.We are all able to grow something,”says Musk. 4.What inspired Musk to make a difference to food industry?A.The pandemic.B.A skiing accident.C.Jamie Oliver’s speech.D.The farm-to-table movement. 5.What is a cause of people beginning gardening according to Musk?A.To get access to healthy food.B.To make their house beautiful.C.To make money by selling garden produce.D.To build up their strength during the pandemic.6.What does the Million Gardens Movement focus

浙江省2020届高三2月新高考研究卷英语卷(1)英语试题(含答案解析)高考真题高考模拟高中联考期中试卷期末考试月考试卷学业水平同步练习浙江省2020届高三2月新高考研究卷英语卷(1)英语试题(含答案解析)1 The other day I was shopping at a local store and came upon a lady from India squatting (蹲下)on the floor looking for a certain product on the bottom shelf. She sprang up when she saw me as if to get out of my way. Apologetically she explained that she was a cashier at a nearby store and was on her lunch break, trying to get a few needed items before her time was up.I r eassured her, “I am in no hurry. Go ahead and do what you need to do.” While she searched for a particular brand, she said that sometimes customers were rude to her at the store and she really appreciated my kindness. I told her that I had noticed cashiers being treated rudely by some people.I also explained to her that I was a retired nurse and understood some of what she was saying first hand. Sometimes patients, families, or doctors could be very rude or mean. But I tried to understand why they were feeling that way and let it go. “The world would be a better place if we all acted kindly toward each other. Those who are rude may have bad karma coming after them eventually.” I added.She nodded and was surprised, “So you know about karma?” My reply was simple. “A little bit. Karma is the same thing as doing something bad and it comes back to bite you on the butt.” She paused, looked puzzled, then broke out in a big smile and covered her mouth with her hand, laughing as she walked away.It felt so good that in a brief exchange I showed her there were kind people in the world, which might have helped her regain her faith in humanity.1.How did the lady react when she saw the author in the store?A. She apologized for her rude manners.B. She invited her to have lunch together.C. She stood up trying to make way for her.D. She kept searching for the needed product.2.Which of the following best describes the author?A. Kind and understanding.B. Courageous and warm-hearted.C. Responsible and humorous.D. Sympathetic and open-minded.3. What is the main message the author wants to convey?A. Working as a cashier is no easy job.B. Those who are rude deserve bad karma.C. Doing acts of kindness will make people feel good.D. We should treat others the way we want to be treated.【答案解析】 21-23 CAD1.C。

BI now know that life is very often unfair.My own life has gone well,with much happiness and no unbearable sorrow or pain.Yet travel to other countries,experiences closer at hand,and just reading the news show me how hard things are for many people.That contrast(对照) troubles me,and I’m still not sure how best to respond to it.I do believe that those of us who have succeeded should view our good fortune not as a sign of personal merit(功绩),but as a duty to recognize the needs of others.Sadly,I’ve fallen short of my optimistic youthful goal of “doing what must be done”.I try to be a good friend to the people I know and support causes that I respect,but recognize that my efforts have changed the world only in small ways.I believe that it’s good to spend time engaging in the present.I recently heard and admired the sentence “Wherever you are,be there”.This may not work for everyone.But someone like me,who focuses on lists of the next day’s tasks and often reads a newspaper while walking outdoors,should also remember to look up at the sky and at the people around him.I believe that it’s important to recognize and appreciate joy when you feel it.Every once in a while and not just on special occasions,I’ve suddenly realized that I am truly happy right now.This is a precious experience.When I was young,an honest and moral life seemed like a straightforward goal.I now know that it’s not always easy to see what should be done and even harder actually to do it.Nevertheless,I’m grateful that I still have some time to keep trying to get it right and to enjoy remaining days in my life.语篇解读本文是一篇议论文,话题是个人情感类。
