选项中有两项为多余选项。
About 85 percent of the world are right-handed. Of the remaining 15 percent, most are left-handed with a small number, about one in 100, being able to use either hand. Why? 36 Old Theories37 Even in the early mid-20th century, natural left-handers were taught to use their right hand anyway. Such theories have been denied by the scientific community.GeneticsThe leading theories regarding why some people are right-handed or left-handed have something to do with genetics. Geneticists believe that natural selection and human activities over time have favored the gene for right handedness. They attribute the difference to two different genes. The D gene produces right-handed people with the C gene are right-handers, some are left-handers and some are either.BiologyThe biological theory relies on the different abilities of different areas of the brain. __38 Others argue that some people do use the right side for language but this theory wouldn’t explain why there are so few left-handers.The ShieldSome have put forward the idea that left-handedness relates to where a soldier holds his shield. Because the heart is on the left side of the body, a soldier who held his shield with his lefthand would be better protected. __39__CreativitySome have claimed that left-handers are more creative than right-handers, pointing to a long list of famous left-handers including Leonardo Da Vinci and Albert Einstein as examples. __40__ Critics, however, point out that there are also many right-handed creative people and that there are many photos showing Einstein drawing with his right hand.A. There is not enough evidence yet to answer the question.B. Because the left side of the brain handles language in most people, most peoplewould be right-handed.C. If this is true, it might help lead to answers.D. Others point out that according to cave paintings, most were right-handersbefore humans started using shields.E. Left-handedness used to be seen as a sign of brain damage.F. However, people who suffer some type of injury or have a disability in one handfrequently learn to use the other.G. Left-handed people tend to be better at problem-solving skills and have larger vocabularies than the average.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2017年安徽高考英语试卷及英语质量检测试卷(2)DUntil recently, scientists had mapped only about 20 percent of the sea floor. But our knowledge of the deep seas is changing because of information from satellites. Scientists have produced a new map that provides a detailed picture of the oceans. The map is expected to help oceanographers (海洋学家), industry and governments.The new map is twice as detailed as the map made 20 years ago. David Sandwell is a geophysics professor at the University of California. He and other scientists worked on the mapping project. He says they turned to space to look deeper into the ocean.The scientists collected and studied information from two satellites. Some of the data came from the European Space Agency’s Cryo-2 satellite. It was placed in Earth's orbit to watch sea ice. The other satellite is the American space agency's Jason-1. It is studying the surface of the oceans. Scientists combined the satellite data with images gathered by sonar (声波定位仪) equipment on ships. Sonar works by sending sound waves through the water. When the sound waves hit an object, its presence is confirmed.The new map shows the sea floor as it has never been seen before. It shows thousands of underwater mountains and places where continents pulled apart. It shows where earthquakes were active many years ago. They all are buried deep underneath the ocean floor.David Sandwell says the map is a powerful tool for fisheries, those interested in protecting the environment and for oilexploration.“The petrol exploration industry is interested in how to reconnect the continents, bring them back together tectonically so you can map the basins on one continental edge—say, Africa—and use that to establish where the similar basin would be on the other continental edge in South America.”If scientists know that information, they may be able to find oil fields. The new data also will help scientists improve their estimates of ocean depths. This information can help ships travel safely and improve military operations and scientific projects worldwide.Mr. Sandwell thinks scientists will make many more discoveries as they examine the new map and the information it provides.32. Which one is not mentioned about the benefits brought by the new map?A. Fisheries.B. Scientific projects.C. Ship manufacture.D. Oil exploration.33. What can we know about the new map?A. It shows where earthquakes will happen.B. It will be helpful to industry and governments.C. It is three times as detailed as the old one years ago.D. It shows the sea floor as it has ever been seen before.34. The text is likely to appear in _________.A. a newspaperB. an advertisementC. a science magazineD. a finance report35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. The detailed picture of the oceansB. Underwater mountains and placesC. More discoveries about the oceansD. Scientists create new maps of ocean floor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。

2017安徽高考英语试卷及答案及英语调研考试试卷2017安徽高考英语试卷及答案及英语调研考试试卷DIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit(追求)of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culturewhich only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among those who are against competition are young people who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” What is not usually admitted by them is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison withothers. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to disappear can we discover a new meaning in competition.32. What is the best title of this passage?A. Competition! Why Friends Turn into EnemiesB. Competition! What Self-respect Depends onC. New Meaning Found in CompetitionD. Two Mistaken Beliefs about Competition33. Why do some young people suffering from competitive pressures seek failure?A. Because they are aware that they will not succeed in competition.B. Because they don’t think it worthwhile to compete with others.C. Because they are afraid that they would not be valued if they lost.D. Because they are fed up with the great efforts needed to compete with others.34. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?A. One should treat competition as a life-and-death affair.B. One should make every effort to avoid competition.C. One should get rid of the fear of failure in competition.D. One should be given rewards after competing with others.35. The true competitors and those with a desire to fail both believe ________.A. one’s self-worth comes from how well he performs in comparison with othersB. one’s dream can be achieved if he has mastered good communication skillsC. one’s failure happens when he is suffering from emotional problemsD. one’s success is bas ed on how hard he has tried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。

A restaurant.D. A street stand.BOne Thursday evening,I was trying to parallel-park on a busy street in the city centre. Despite moving back neatly into position between two cars, I was still quite a way from the edge of the pavement. I spent a few minutes inching backwards and forwards but failed to get any closer to it. I was starting to panic, worrying that I'd be late meeting my daughter, when a young man of about 25 got out of the car behind me and knocked on my window.Embarrassed and nervous, I wound down the front side window. “Would you like me to park your car for you?” he asked pleasantly.I gratefully accepted. Taking my handbag with me, I jumped out of the car and handed him my keys. As I watched, he drove the car out into the busy traffic before moving back and parking with swift precision. “Thank you so much,” I said excitedly.While it was a simple act of kindness for this young man to perform, I felt it was quite an unusual thing to occur these days. He politely refused further thanks and hurried away. I related this story to my daughter over dinner and then we went to the Pop Up Theatre to see Hamlet. Sitting in the theatre later, imagine my surprise when the actor playing Rosencrantz-or was it Guildenstern?—turned out to be the same young man.I have seen him in a few other local productions since then. Although I can’t remember his name, he’ll always be the kind young man who parked the car for me.25. Why was the author worried?A. A strange man knocked at her car window.B. Her daughter would be late for school.C. She might fail to meet her daughter in time.D. Her car crashed into another car.26. How did the author react to the young man’s offer?A.

He liked Guildenstern.C. He was like Rosencrantz.D.

But as far back as second grade, I noticed a “darkness” about me. I didn’t enjoy participating in many things.In middle school things in my life began to get even worse. I began withdrawing from everything I once enjoyed. I was always tired. Everything was horrible. Finally, midway through eighth grade, I was told I had a chemical imbalance, diagnosed (诊断) with clinical depression, and had to take medicine. It took months for me to feel the effects of the medicine.When I began to feel happy again is when I realized that I had to take the responsibility for getting better myself, rather than relying o n medicine. Aristotle said, “To live happily is an inward power of the soul,” and I believe that this quote describes what I had to do to achieve happiness. Happiness is a journey. Everyone seems to need different things to be happy.“The essentials (要素) to happiness are something to love, something to do, and something to hope for,” a quote from William Blake sums up what I believe people need to realize to be truly happy in life. People need love; I feel they need their family and their friends more than anything else in the world. People need work to do, something to make them feel they are making a difference in the world. People need to know that more good is to come in the future, so they continue to live for “now” instead of constantly worrying about the bad that could come. Love and hope are happiness.28.

But, since ancient times, the Christmas Eve duty has been performed with distinction by a team of beloved reindeer (驯鹿).Soon, however, Santa Claus may have to start looking around for a stronger type of animal, as a new research shows the species is becoming increasingly puny. A 16-vear survey on the arctic Norwegian island of Svalbard found the reindeer there have declined in weight by an alarming 12 percent.The reduction in average body-mass is being blamed on global warming. In the research presented lately at a meeting of the British Ecological Society in Liverpool, scientists have explained how rising temperatures are robbing female reindeer of nutrients during important periods of pregnancy. are becoming starved, causing them to abort their babies or giving birth to much lighter young.Snow in Svalbard typically covers the ground for eight months of the year, which, combined with low temperatures, limits grass growth to June and July. But as summer temperatures have increased by around 1.5 °C , grass has become more productive, allowing female reindeer to gain more weight by the autumn and therefore to have more babies. However, wanner winters have brought with them greater rainfall which freezes when it settles on the snow. Reindeer can often access the poor food sources beneath the snow by clearing it away with their antlers (鹿角),but they cannot break through the hard ice. As a result, female reindeer are becoming starved, causing them to abort their babies or giving birth to much lighter young.Despite the findings, reindeer appear to be suffering less from the effect of climate change than some other arctic species. Last week the scientists warned that a third of the world’s polarbears could disappear in the next 40 years.32.

Polar bears suffer more from climate change.C. Reindeer have no trouble finding food in winter.D. Polar bears will disappear in the near future.35. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The Christmas Eve duty will still be carried out by reindeer.B. Reindeer has decreased in weight owing to global warming.C. Global warming contributes to more young reindeer.D. Many arctic species are at the risk of dying out.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。
