Luckily, in the age of social media, we are never truly alone. And with the extra time spent indoors, artists are stepping up to help us all with the following clubs.Drawing from Distance by Sarah Beth MorganLet’s shine some light during this trying time and encourage social distancing! I’m starting this tomorrow myself — but from what I offer, take whatever you please. No rules! Just have fun!Stayathome Art Club byCarsonEllisHello! I’ll be posting art homework here every weekday morning when I can. They’ll be designed for kids and grownups alike. Here is your first homework: Draw a picture of yourself from the shoulders up. You can follow some useful examples. If you want to share or see other people’s self-picture, use these hashtags: #Stayathomeartclub# QACselfportrait30-Day indoor Art by Danielle KrysaOne month of avoiding crowds? I’m in! I challenge you to use this time inside to make one piece every day from now until mid April. Please join me in playing around with some painting ideas that have been rolling around in my head but haven’t found their way onto paper yet. Stay at home, make art, save someone’s life.DIY from Illustoria MagazineWe have been so inspired to see our community come together to provide easy art projects for families during this stay-at-home-time! DIY is actually a fantastic way tosparkyour imagination without breaking a sweat. A video every day will teach you how to DIY something.1. What do we know about Sarah Beth Morgan?A. She is a strict artist.B. She aims at training more artists.C. She prefers to work at home office.D. She will provide a wide range of choices.2. What are you expected to do if you join Stayathome Art Club?A. Hand in homework every day.B. Share other people’s pictures.C. Draw a picture of yourself.D. Show up in person occasionally.3. What does “spark”in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Set off.B. Set down.C. Set aside.D. Set about.B"Long time no see." is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend's e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar and structure! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research onGoogle. com. To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing "Long time no see." Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan's movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective named "Charlie Chan" on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. "Long time no see." was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, "Long time no see." became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.Some scholars compare America to a hugemelting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the colour and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.You can have some examples from other countries such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American's melting pot keeps adding richness and flavour.4. What did the writer himself feel surprised at?A. The Chinglish expression "Long time no see."B. So many literal translations of the expressions used in America.C. "Long time no see." is used as a standard American English greeting.D. Finding out Americans use the expression every day.5. What do the underlined words "melting pot" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Confucius's words.B. Culture mixture.C. A kind of cooked dish.D. American changing cultures.6. According to the passage, what can be inferred?A. Detectives translated the phrase "Long time no see."B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.C. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.D. Hollywood made "Long time no see." popular.7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Some Chinese expressions are introduced into English.B. You'll not be surprised at a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant in America.C. Some American expressions can be used in China.D. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.CTo stay healthy and fit, Chinesestudents do group exercises every day at school. Most of you probably do the same set of exercises. But some school exercises have grown popular online due to their local and innovative designs.Singing in Sichuan dialects with energetic movements and unique mask-changing is not just a Sichuan Opera performance. It’s the routine exercise for students of Mianyang Foreign Languages Experimental School in Sichuan province.“Sichuan Opera is a local opera, and it is now facing a gap in inheritance (传承). Therefore, we cooperated with Mianyang Intangible Cultural Heritage Center to create a simple and easy-to-learn Sichuan Opera exercise,” said Shen Junhua, who is in charge of organizing the school’s exercise between classes.According to Shen, this new type of exercise has been practiced since 2017 and has been popular among students. When students enroll (入学), they will spend several weeks practicing it. At present, almost all of the students and teachers have mastered it.“In fact, we had hardly heard of Sichuan Opera before teachers taught us how to do the Sichuan Opera exercise,” said Li Yangwenwen, 14, an eighth grade student who also joined the school’s Sichuan Opera club out of interest. “It’s very different from normal exercises. After practicing it, we found it very beautiful and becameinterested in it. Now, almost all of the students look forward to our daily exercise time and feel excited to do it.”“By combining opera with daily exercise, the daily class activity allows students to perceive and understand Sichuan Opera’s culture”, Shen said. “After years of continuous effort to spread the seeds of traditional culture, the younger generation is finally catching on.”8. What do students in Shen’s school do during the group exercise?A. They do normal exercise .B. They sing pop songs in Sichuan dialects.C. They do mask-changing in a Sichuan Opera performance.D. They combine group exercise with Sichuan Opera.9. Why do they adopt the new type of exercise?A. To attract new students to the school.B. To inherit local culture.C. To create an easy-to-learn exercise.D. To make the school’s group exercise popular.10. How do teachers and students react to the group exercise?A. Calm.B. Indifferent.C. Enthusiastic.D. Uninterested.11. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Shen’s continuous effort is highly praised.B. The younger generation will have a stronger body.C. The students can better understand their local culture.D. Students help to spread the seeds of traditional culture toyounger generation.DEveryone can be angry. But if you take the time to actually examine your anger instead of just “feeling” angry, you’ll have a better understanding of yourself. Knowing why you feel so angry can provide you with some surprising answers. These answers can enable you to suddenly grow spiritually and mentally.I can give you a personal example. I went to a meeting once and I was verbally attacked over an application I supported at my workplace. Various people went on and on about how terrible this system was and that it never worked. That didn’t bother me that much. I was used to that but one of the comments that was said was, “Your job is pointless.” This really upset meand at the time, I was ly furious(发怒地) with that comment.I was so angry and upset that they would treat me that way. Once I took the time to think about what was really making me so mad. I learned a lot. I realized that the comment was more truethan I wanted to admit. In the big scheme of things, my job was pointless. It wasn’t what I really wanted to be doing with my life and this was what frustrated me the most. Here I was pouring part of my heart and soul into a job I didn’t even really want to do. I was using it as a crutch(拐杖) because I didn’t have the confidence in myself to take the scary road towards what I really wanted to do. As soon as I realized that, a lot of my anger just melted away. I also realized that I needed to start focusing on what I really wanted to do.I now consider this incident as a great gift It got me back on track to moving in the direction I wanted to go with my life. I probably wouldn’t be where I am today if I hadn’t taken the time to figure out why I was really so angry.12. What made the author angry at the meeting?A. The system of the company was terrible.B. Someone said his job is insignificant.C. The policy of the company didn’t work.D. The application he supported was of no effect.13. What brought down the anger of the author?A. The apology someone made at the meeting.B. The crutch he used to take the scary road.C. His awareness of the fact that the comment was true.D. The courage he had to overcome the challenges.14. Why did the author consider the incident as a gift?A. It brought him back on track to the goal.B. It helped him get promoted to a higher position.C. It helped him change his character since then.D. It provided him with confidence in his career.15. What can be the best title of the passage?A. How to Cope with Verbal Attack in a CompanyB. Avoid Being Pointless at WorkC. Anger Is Harmful to HealthD. Understanding Yourself Better Through Anger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。

Here are some hottest travel destinations that offer some of the most beautiful, artistic, and fashionable places on the globe.Ibiza, SpainWhile Ibiza is knownas a party city, there is far more to do in this historic town than simply drink and dance under the stars. Built mainly in the second century, it’s a world heritage site with architecture dating back to as early as the 7th century. Don’t miss Charo Ruiz, Ibiza’s most famous fashion brand. Plus, the Ibiza Fashion Festival takes place every June.Tangier, MoroccoKnown as the “door to Africa”, Tangier has a rich and complex history dating back thirty centuries.

To lead a meaningful life, we have to set up a goal to achieve.For another, there are also some differences between high school life and college life.

The Below Zero icecream machine uses a unique technique to freeze alcohol, which allows you to turn beers, cocktails and even spirits (烈酒) into delicious soft —serve ice cream.Rogers was trying to create a highly — caffeinated espresso ice cream flavor when he realized hecould use the same technique with alcoholic beverages. He started experimenting with various gums and stabilizers commonly used in the ice cream industry and eventually patented something called the NEA gel. It’s this magical concoction (调制品) that allows the alcohol to freeze to a near solid inside the Below Zero ice cream machine.Even though Below Zero changes the texture (质地) of beer, cocktails and even spirits, essentially turning them into soft —serve ice cream, it does not affect the alcohol contentat all. The ABV (酒精度) remains exactly the same, which means you can get drunk on ice — cream just as you would on the same concoctions in liquid form.Will Rogers claims that it takes around 30 minutes for beer to go from liquid to ice cream form, but higher alcohol content drinks take longer. Essentially, the higher the alcohol level, the longer the wait.The American inventor plans to sell Below Zero ice cream machines to bars and breweries wanting to surprise their patrons. Metro reports that machines will sell for about 6,000.8. What’s the name of the machine which can change beer and spirits into ice cream?A. Will RogersB. WDS Dessert StationsC. HinkleyD. Below Zero9. What makes alcohol to freeze to a near solid inside the machine?A. gums.B. stabilizers.C. NEA gel.D. ABV.10. What can we know from the passage?A. The machine can change all liquids into ice cream.B. It takes 20 minutes for beer to change into ice cream.C. The higher the alcohol level, the shorter the wait will be.D. The machine changes the texture of beer, cocktails and even spirits.11. What can we infer from the passage?A. The machine affects the alcohol content.B. You can get drunk if you have ice—creams made from spirits.C. The American inventor doesn’t want to sell themagical machine.D. Bars and breweries will not become potential buyers of the machine.DKids often admire well-known celebrities, putting posters of their favorite musicians, movie stars and athletes on their bedroom walls. But rarely does a young person get to meet or talk to their idol. Yet for one young tennis player - Coco Gauff - her chance to do just that happened in an amazing way!Coco was born on March 13, 2004. At the age of 4, she developed an interest in tennis after watching Venus Williams win the Australian Open on TV. Coco began playing at 7 and showed a real talent for the sport.

While she was preparing to go to the academy in 2019, she received a call that would change her plans and her life!Wimbledon（温布尔顿网球比赛）organizers called and offered Gauff entry to the tournament（联赛）as a wildcard（外卡选手）.This madeher one of the youngest players to ever qualify. Before she knew it she was on her way to London. After arriving, she received another surprise. For her Wimbledon debut（首次登场），she would be playing her lifelong hero, Venus Williams! The tennis legend is 24years older than Gauff.The world watched with amazement as young Gauff beat Venus in two straight sets!

" Venus said, “I feel honored that I was on her wall [as a poster] at some point in her life. Soon she will be on other girls' walls.

平阳县第三中学高三英语测试题〔9.22-9.28〕2I still remember the summer when I was with my aunt at the age of seven．One day, she asked me to go to Miss Bee's store with a 36 ．How could I find anything on the 37 shelves around me?I walked up to the counter, 38 up the list, and told the lady behind it I needed those． "So? Go to get them．" She 39 to a sign 〔牌子〕on the door．"There's no one here except you and me and I'm not your servant． 40 yourself a basket and start filling．"The store was a 41 ．I searched shelf after shelf and when I finally 42 it, I was exhausted and it was already sundown．I visited Miss Bee's, 43 with my list, twice a week that summer．Sometimes she short-changed me．Other times she overcharged 44 sold me an old newspaper instead of one that was current．Going to the store was more like going into 45 ． Every time I told her that she had overcharged, she just looked at me 46 her glasses and fixed the price．The moment I remembered the location of an item．Miss Bee rearranged the shelves and made me 47 for it all over again．By summer's end the shopping trip that had 48 taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes．On my last trip to the store．Miss Bee asked: "What did you 49 this summer?"

I pressed my lips together．To my 50 , Miss Bee laughed．"I know what you think of me．But I am 51 to teach every child some life lessons． Whenyou grow up you'll be glad our paths 52 !" Glad I met Miss Bee? I thought it a stupid 53 until one day my daughter came to me with homework troubles．"If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?"

Grandma Moses became famous for her simple, bright, cheerful paintings of American farm life．Her full name was Anna Mary Robertson Moses．But she was known to everyone as Grandma Moses because she did not begin to paint seriously until in her seventies．Born on a farm in New York, Anna had little schooling．Her days were filled with farm chores．But she often found time to make pictures．Soon, however, she became too busy to draw or paint．At the age of 12, she went to work as a servant for a family nearby．She worked for other people for many years．Then, when she was 27, she married Thomas Moses, a farmer．And they began raising a family of their own．Anna Moses could no longer do heavy farm work with age．Then, in her seventies, she began to paint in oils．Her pictures showed things she recalled from childhood-farm scenes, ice-skating, bringing home the Christmas tree．Later, she began to display her art at county fairs．Her pictures recorded a way of life that was quickly passing away．People everywhere loved these happy scenes, and soon her paintings were shown in art galleries．Grandma Moses became famous partially on account of her age, but mainly because her approach to art was modest and simple compared to many other painters of her time．Without formal training or even knowledge of Modernism, she relied on her own simple techniques to create her landscapes andscenes．She continued to paint almost until her death, on December 13, 1961 , at the age of 101．The themes in her paintings provided the comfort of a rural life that many busy Americans treasured from their past．The threat of nuclear arms that appeared on television screens and in magazines had Americans starving for something more．Grandma Moses' art appealed to those who had lost hope for the future．Her classic paintings still appear on TV commercials, greeting cards, and magazine and book covers．56．What can be inferred from the fact that Grandma Moses picked up a paintbrush?A．She had no other ways to kill time． B．Her friend and family suggested it．C．She had had a love for painting since her childhood．D．She needed to make a living by selling her paintings．57．The key reason for her success is ___ .A．her old age B．her plain styleC．her lack of training D．her modern knowledge58．We can know from the passage that ______．A．her paintings raised people's hope for the futureB．her paintings expressed the reality of her old ageC．many Americans were interested in purchasing art worksD．people wanted to get comfort by remembering grandmasBSpeaking two languages rather than just one has obvious practical benefits in an increasingly globalized world．But in recent years, scientists have begun to show that the advantages of bilingualism 〔双语才能〕 are even more important than being able to converse with a wider range of people．Being bilingual, it turns out, makes you smarter．It can have a deep effect on your brain, improving skills not related to language and even protecting against a serious mental disorder in old age．This view of bilingualism is different from the understanding of bilingualism through much of the 20th century．Researchers, educators and policy makers long considered a second language to be an interruption that prevented a child's school work and ability to think and understand things．They were not wrong about the interruption: there is ample evidence that in a bilingual \s brain both language systems are active even when he is using only one language, thus creating situations in which one system disturbs the other．But this interruption, researchers are finding out, isn't so much a disturbance．It forces the brain to solve inside conflict, giving the mind a workout that strengthens its thinking muscles．The key difference between bilinguals and monolinguals may be more basic: a heightened ability to monitor the environment．"Bilinguals have to switch languages quite often—you may talk to your father in one language and to your mother in another language," says Albert Costa, a researcher at the University of Pompea Fabra in Spain．"It requires keeping track of changes around you in the same way that we monitor our surroundings when driving．" In a study comparing German-Italian bilinguals withItalian monolinguals on monitoring tasks, Mr．Costa and his colleagues found that the bilingual subjects not only performed better, but they also did so with less activity in parts of the brain involved in monitoring, showing that they did better in it．59．From the passage we can learn that experts used to believe that ______．A．interruption forced a bilingual's brain to strengthen its thinking ability B．a second language stopped children's studying as well as mental development C．using two languages annoyed the children who have trouble in learning skills D．language systems were busy in a bilingual's brain when he was using languages 60．The underlined word "switch" in Paragraph 3 probably means "______"．A．change B．Use C．speak D．study61．What is the author's attitude towards bilingualism?A．Cautious． B．Doubtful． C．Concerned． D．Favourable．62．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．How Bilinguals Use Languages B．What Bilingualism Is Really about C．Why Bilinguals Are More Intelligent D．When People Learn a Second LanguageCThe Segway Human Transporter was invented by Dean Kamen．It is a two-wheeled vehicle designed for a single rider standing upright over its single axle〔轴〕 and navigate using a set of handlebars resembling those on a bicycle．Electrically powered, it could travel over 15 miles on a single charge and reach speeds up totwelve miles per hour．Its speed and direction can be controlled by riders' changing their weights．A college dropout and self-taught engineer, Kamen already held over 100 patents for his inventions when he developed the one he hoped would revolutionize short-distance travel．While still in college, Kamen started developing the medical devices 〔设备〕 that made his name．Later, he changed focus to the challenges faced by wheelchair users．His robotic wheelchair known as IBOT could climb stairs．This robot ended up paving the way for the Segway．Before showing his most recent invention, Kamen had kept it a top secret for months．When it turned out to be little more than a motor scooter, many publicly expressed their disappointment．On closer examination, however, even his critics 〔批评家〕 had to admit that the vehicle was an engineering achievement．It answered the prayers of anyone who is worn out when walking downtown．Not everyone welcomed the Segway's arrival, though．Some complained it was too expensive, while others said it would further weaken the average American ' s fitness．A Japanese inventor even accused Kamen of stealing the idea for the Segway from him．Despite the controversy, the U．S．postal service began using Kamen's invention a month after its appearance, and a factory was built with plans to produce about 40,000 Segways every month．The argument is still on whether the Segway will be remembered as the greatest invention since the light bulb, or just another forgettable electronic device．Anyway, trips to the local supermarket will never be the same again．63．Which statement best describes the critics' reaction to the Segway?A．Nothing but an electrical device． B．A disappointing engineering mistake．C．An expensive and disappointing invention．D．Disappointing, but still a successful device．64．Which is not a feature of the Segway?A．One person at a time can ride on it． B．It has two wheels with a single axle．C．It is powered by electricity and can go up to 12mph．D．Riders increase the speed by moving the handlebars65．Some people expressed dissatisfaction with the Segway because of its______.A．high cost B．danger to trafficC．being difficult to use D．contribution to laziness66．Shortly after the Segway appeared, there were _________.A．hopes for a larger model of it B．no plans to do anything more with itC．some discussions on the unforgettable deviceD．plans to make tens of thousands of them a monthDIf you're one of the 13 million Americans still struggling to find a job, or wanting to change jobs, a lot of

浙江省平阳县第三中学高三英语测试题（9.8-9.14）2趣味故事阅读Who changed his lifeWhen Charlie died, he left a wife and nine children. They lived in a house with four rooms. John was the oldest boy. He was 16 years old and tall for his age. After his father died, John's mother told him, he would have to take care of the family. So John went into the cornfield（玉米地） behind the small house. There was very little corn and very many weeds（杂草）. His family needed corn and corn needed room to grow. John bent down（弯腰） and began pulling out the weeds.When John came in for supper that night, he told his mother that he had cleaned half the cornfield. She was surprised and immediately went outside to look at what he had done. While she was looking at the field, she remembered that her husband had sold some corn to Judge Don. She also remembered that they had never collected the money for the corn. She told John to go to the judge's house right away （立刻）to get it. John was afraid of Judge Don. The judge was the richest man in town. He own ed a lot of land and everyone owe d （欠）him money. His stone house looked like a palace（宫殿）.John went to the judge's house and knocked on the door. A servant opened it right away and brought John into the judge's office.Judge Don was sitting at his desk. He was a very big man with a red face, long white hair and serious blue eyes. "Hello, John," said the judge, "what do you want?"John told the judge about the money he owe d to his family."Oh, yes," said the judge, "I had forgotten about that. I'm sorry." He stood up and reached into his pocket. Slowly he pulled out a large brown leather wallet(皮的钱包). He opened it and took out a new dollar bill and handed it to John. Then he sat down at his desk again. "How are you and your family doing?" He asked. "All right, sir." John said. "I wouldn't have bother ed you about this money, but we needed it." "That is all right," the judge said slowly, "I should have remembered it. I didn't think of it. Because your father owe d me money. He owe d me forty dollars. And here is the receipt（借条）with your father’s signature(签名) on it." John was so shock ed that he couldn't think of anything to say. Forty dollars was a large sum for him and his family. The judge looked at John for a few moments. "How old are you, boy?" He asked. "Sixteen, sir.""And when do you think you will pay me back the forty dollars your father owe d me?" He asked. John's face turned white. "I don't know, sir." He whisper ed.The judge stood up. "I hope you are not like your father." He said. "He was a lazy man who never worked hard." He held out his hand to the boy. "Good luck to you", he said as he shook John's hand. Then he walked with him to the front door and said good night.During the summer, John worked on other people's farms for forty cents（四十美分） a day. At first, nobody wanted him. People remembered how lazy his father had been. And they gave the work to other boys. But John was a hard worker and he began to get jobs. Soon he was working on other people's farms six days of the week. He worked on his own family's land every evening and all day Sunday. That summer, for the first time, the little farm had enough fruits and vegetables to feed John and his family. There was even some to sell at the market.John used to wonder how his father had always found time to go fishing. John had very little time to fish that summer and when he did have time to relax, he thought about the forty dollars he owe d Judge Don. Then he would go out and look for more work. At first, he gave all the money he earn ed to his mother. But then, he began saving a few cents every time he was paid. By the end of August, he had saved a dollar. As he held the money in his hand, he realized for the first time that someday he might be able to pay off （还清）all the money he owe d to the judge.By the middle of October, John had save d five dollars to give to the judge. So one night after supper, he went back to the judge's big stone house. He found the judge sitting in his office. "Sit down, John." The judge said. "I know you have worked hard this summer. I'll be glad to help you if you need some money for the winter." John felt his face burning. "I didn't come here to ask for anything, Judge." He said. He pushedhis hand deep into his pocket and pulled out his money. "I wanted to pay back some of the money I owe d you. It is only five dollars, but here it is.'' And he hand ed the money to the judge.Judge Don count ed the money. Then he went to his desk and put the money in a drawer（抽屉）. "Where will you find work this winter, John?" "I don't know, sir."Several days later, John's mother asked him to go into town to buy cloth. She wanted to make some warm clothing for the children for the coming winter. On his way into town, John met Seth. Seth was an Indian who also worked on the farms during the summer. But in winter, Seth traveled north and disappeared into the woods （森林）. As they walked toward the town, John told Seth that he had no work for the winter. Seth told John that he went into the woods every winter to hunt（打猎）and trap wild animals for their fur（皮毛）. Seth said he earn ed 200 dollars last winter. "200 dollars!" John thought. He turned shyly to the Indian. "Could I come with you this year?" he asked.Seth looked at John without smiling. "Have you got a gun（枪）and some animal trap s?"John shook his head. "No," he said, "how much would that cost?""75 dollars," the Indian replied." If you can get those things, I will teach you how to catch the animals.I am leaving in two weeks."Only one person could help John. That night he went to the judge's house. The house was dark except for a light that was shining in the judge's office. John could see the judge sitting at his desk. The boy knock ed at the window. Judge Don opened it. When he saw the boy's thin face, he asked, "what do you want?" "Please, Judge," said John, "could I talk to you?"The judge shut the window and opened the front door. They went back to his office."Be as quick as you can," the judge said. "It is late." John had never been so frightened in his life. He couldn't think or speak for a few moments. ''Talk, boy.'' The judge urge d （催促）him. So John told him about Seth and the animal furs, and asked the judge for the money. ''75 dollars?'' The judge said, ''you are asking me to lend that much money to a 16-year-old boy just like that?'' ''I could do it with 50 dollars.'' John said,'' but if you think it is a bad idea, I won't bother you anymore.'' ''Shut up.'' The judge said, ''if I'm going to lend you money, I want to be sure you don't starve to death in the woods. In that case I would never get my money back, would I?'' The judge looked hard at John for a few moments. ''What about this Seth?'' he asked. ''Can you trust him?'' John nod ded his head. ''He has always been nice to me'', he said.The judge pulled out a piece of paper from his desk and wrote something on it. ''Sign this(签字).'' He said when he had finished writing. ''It says you promise to pay me back 75 dollars by next spring.'' John was embarrassed（尴尬的）to tell the judge that he didn't know how to read or write. ''Put a mark at the bottom （底） instead of your name,'' the judge said. ''Here is the money. Don't lose it.'' He shook the boy's hand. ''Good luck. Come here as soon as you get back next spring.''On the first day of November, John kissed his mother goodbye and left home with Seth. On his back he carrieda large bag of food, a new gun and animal traps he had bought with the Judge's money. He and the Indian walked for hours to a cabin(小屋)deep in the forest（森林）. Seth had built the little house several years before. John learned a lot that winter. He learned how to hunt, set traps for wild animals and how to live in the forest. His body grew strong as the forest test ed his strength and made him brave. John trap ped a lot of animals and early March, his pile（堆）of animals' skins was almost as tall as he was. Seth said John should get at least 200 dollars. John was ready to go home but Seth wanted to continue hunting until April. So John decided to go home by himself. Seth helped John pack his fur and traps so he could carry them on his back. Then Seth said: "Now listen to me. When you cross the river, do not walk on the ice. It is very thin now. Find a place where the ice has melt ed（融化）, then tie some logs（木头） together. You can float on them across the river. It will take you a few hours longer to do this, but it is safer." "Yes, I will." John said quickly. He wanted to leave right away. As John walked through the woods that day, he began thinking about his future. He would learn how to read and write. He would buy a bigger farm for his family. Maybe someday he would be as powerful and respected as the Judge. The heavy pack on his back let him think of what he would do when he got home. He would buy a new dress for his mother. He would buy toy s for his brothers and sisters.And he would see the Judge and count the money into the Judge's hand. John could not wait to pay back the rest of the money that Judge Done said his father had borrowed. By late afternoon, John's legs hurt and the pack on his back was very heavy. He was glad when he finally reached the river because that meant he was almost home. John remembered Seth's advice. But he was too tired to search for a place where the ice had melt ed. He saw a large straight tree growing by the river. It was tall enough to reach the other side of the river. John took out his axe（斧子） and cut down the tree. It fell forming a bridge over the river. John gave the tree a kick but it didn't move. He decided not to do what Seth had said. If he crossed the river on this tree, he would be home in a couple of hours. He could see the Judge that evening.With the furs on his back, and his gun in his arms, he stepped on the fallen tree. He was about half way across the river when the tree trunk（树干）moved suddenly, John fell from it onto the ice. The ice broke and John sank under the water. He didn't have a chance even to yell（叫）. John dropped his gun, the furs and traps slip ped off 滑落his back. He tried to grab（抓） them but swiftly flowing water carried them away. John broke through the ice and struggle d to the river bank. He had lost everything. He lay in the snow for a few moments. Then he got up, found a long stick（棍子）and walked up and down the river bank looking for his furs, traps and gun. Finally, he gave up. He walked straight to the Judge's house. It was very late, but the Judge was still in his office. John knock ed and went in. Cold and still wet, John told the Judge how he had ignore d Seth's advice and what happened. The Judge said nothing until the boy was done. Then Judge Done said: " Everybody has to learn things. It is bad luck for you and me. That's you have to learn like this. Go home, boy."John worked hard that summer planting corn and potatoes for his family. He also worked on other people's farms and saved enough money to pay the Judge another5 dollars. But he still owe d him 30 dollars from his father's debt（债） and 75 dollars for the traps and gun. John felt he could never pay back the Judge. In October, Judge Done sent for him. "John," He said, "you owe d me a lot of money. I had a best way I can get it. It is to give you another chance to hunt and trap this winter. Are you willing to go if I lend you another 75 dollars?" John found the voice to say yes. He had to go into the woods alone that year because Seth had moved to another part of the country. But John remembered everything that his Indian friend had told him. He stayed in Seth's cabin and hunted animals every day of that long lonely winter. This time, he stayed until the end of April, by then he had so many fur s（皮毛） that he had to leave his traps behind. The ice over the river had melt ed when he reach ed it. He built a raft（筏） to take him across even though it took him an extra day. When he got home, the Judge helped him sell the furs for 300 dollars. John paid the Judge the 150 dollars that he had borrowed to buy traps and guns, then he slowly count ed it into the Judge's hands, the money that his father had borrowed.That summer, John worked on his family's farm. He also learned to read and write. Every winter, for the next ten years, he hunted in the woods. He save d the money he earned from the furs. He used it finally to buy a large farm. From time to time, he would visit the Judge in his big stone house. The old man no longer frightened him.By the time John was 30 years old, he had become one of the leaders of his town. When the Judge died that year, he left John his big house and much of his money. He also left J ohn a letter. John opened it and looked at the date. The Judge had written it at the same day that John asked him for the money for his first hunting trip."Dear John," The Judge wrote, "I never lent your father any money. because I never trust ed him, but I liked you when I first saw you. I wanted to be sure you were not like your father. So I put you to the test , that is why I said your father owe d me 40 dollars. Good luck, John." Inside the envelope（信封） was 40 dollars.Paul’s CasePaul hate d school. He did not do his homework. He did not like his teachers. Paul’s father did not know what to do with him. His teachers did not know either. One afternoon, all his teachers at Pittsburgh high school met together with him to discuss his case. Paul was late. When he enter ed the room ,his teachers sat waiting for him.He was tall for his age and very thin. His clothes were too small for him, but they were clean. He had abright red flower in the button (纽扣)hole of his black jacket. One of the teachers asked Paul why he had come to the meeting. Paul said politely that he wanted to do better in school. This was a lie. Paul often lied.His teachers began to speak. They had many complaint s（抱怨）. One said Paul talked to the other students instead of paying attention to the lessons. Another said Paul always fell asleep with his head buried in his hands . A third teacher said Paul looked out of the window instead of looking at him. His teachers attack ed him without mercy.Paul’s eyebrows(眉毛) moved up and down as his teachers spoke. His smile never left his face, but his fingers shook as he touch ed the flower on his coat. At last the meeting was over. Paul’s smile got even wider. He bow ed （鞠躬）gracefully and left the room.His teachers were angry and confused.After the meeting, Paul ran down the hill from the school whistling. He was late for his job at the concert hall. Paul was an usher(引座员)there. He showed people to their seats. He carried messages for them. He brought them their programs with a polite bow. Everyone thought he was a charm ing （有魅力的）boy and the best usher at the hall.Paul rush ed into the concert hall（音乐会大厅） as soon as he had changed clothes. His face became pink and his eyes seemed larger and very bright. At last everyone was seated. The orchestra（管弦乐队） began to play and Paul sat down with a sigh of relief.The music seemed to free something in Paul’s spirit（灵魂）. Then a woman came out and began to sing. She had a rich, strong voice. Paul felt truly happy for the first time that day. After the concert, all the important people went to The Schenley Hotel and Paul followed them. Paul had never been inside it, but he believed if he could only enter this kind of a hotel, he would be able to leave school, his teachers, and his ordinary gray life behind him. . . forever.At last the singer came out of the concert hall. Paul follow ed her as she walked to the hotel. He was part of a large crowd（人群）of admirer s who had waited to see her. When they all reach ed the hotel, she turn ed and wave d. Then the doors opened and she disappear ed inside. Paul stared into the hotel as the doors slowly closed. He could feel the warm, sweet air inside. And for a moment, he felt part of a golden world of sparkling lights and marble （大理石） floors. He thought about the mysterious（神秘的） dishes of food being serve d in the hotels dining room. He thought about bottles of wine（酒）.He turned away from the hotel and walked home. He thought of his room with its horrible（讨厌的）yellow wallpaper, the old bed with its ugly（丑的） red cover. He shook his head. Soon he was walking down the street where he lived. As Paul walked toward his house he felt as if he were drowning in ugliness. He longed for（渴望）cool colors and soft lights and fresh flowers. He didn’t want to see his ugly bedroom or the cold bathroom with its cracked （裂缝的）mirror and gray floor. Paul went around to the back of his father’s house. He found an open window and climb ed （爬）into the kitchen（厨房）. Then he went downstairs to the basement（地下室）. He was afraid of rats（老鼠）. But he did not want to face his own bedroom. Paul couldn’t sleep. He sat on the floor and stared into the darkness until morning came.The following Sunday Paul had to go to church （教堂）with his family. Afterwards, everyone came home and ate a big dinner. Then all the people who lived on the street came outside to visit each other. After supper Paul asked his father if he could visit a friend to get some help with his math （数学）. Paul left the house with his school books under his arm. But he didn’t go to his friend’s house. Instead he went to see Charley Edwards. Charley was a young actor（演员）. Paul liked to spend as much time as he could at the theater（剧院）where Charley Edwards and his group acted in their plays.It was only at the theater and the concert hall that Paul felt really alive. The moment he smelled the air of these places he felt like a prisoner suddenly set free. As soon as he heard the concert hall orchestra play he forgot all the ugly, unpleasant events in his own life.Paul had discover ed that any kind of music awaken ed his imagination. Paul didn’t want to become a musician （音乐家）, however. He didn’t want to become an actor, either. He only wanted to be near people who were actors and musicians. He wanted to see the kind of life these artists led.Paul found the classroom even worse after a night at the theater or the concert hall. He hate d the school.He turned away from his dull（乏味的）teachers in their plain（普通的）clothes. He tried to show them how little he thought of them and the studies they taught.He would bring photographs（照片） of all the actors he knew to school. He would tell the other students that he spent his evenings with these people at expensive restaurants. Then he would announce that he was going away to Europe or to California, or to Egypt for a while. The next day he would come to school smiling nervously. His sister was ill, he would say. But he was still planning to make his trip next spring. Paul’s problem s at school became worse. Even after the meeting with his teachers, things did not get better. He told them he had no time to study grammar and maths. He told them he had to help the actors in the theater. They were old friends of his.Finally, his teachers went to Paul’s father. He took Paul out of school and made him get a job as a messenger boy. He told the manager（经理）at the concert hall that Paul could not work there anymore. His father warn ed（警告） the doorman（守门人） at the theater not to let Paul into the place. And Charley Edwards promise d Paul’s father not to see Paul again.Paul did not like his job as a messenger boy. He began to plan his escape. A few weeks later, Paul’s boss, Mr. Denny, gave Paul a large amount of money to take to the bank（银行）. He told Paul to hurry because it was Friday afternoon. He said the bank would close soon and would not open again until Monday. At the bank, Paul took the money out of his pocket. It was 5,000 dollars. Paul put the money back in his pocket. And he walked out of the bank.Paul went to the train station（火车站）and bought a one way ticket for New York City. That afternoon Paul left Pittsburgh forever.The train traveled slowly through a January snowstorm. The slow movement made Paul fall asleep. As the sun was coming up ,Paul heard train whistling and woke up , feeling dirty and uncomfortable. He quickly touch ed his coat pocket. The money was still there. It was not a dream. He really was on his way to New York City with five thousand dollars in his pocket.Finally the train pulled into Central Station. Paul walked quickly out of the station and went immediately to an expensive clothing store. The salesman was very polite when he saw Paul’s money. Paul bought two suits（西装）, several white silk（丝绸） shirts, some silk tie s（领带） of different colors. Then he bought a black tuxedo（晚礼服）suit for the theater, and a warm winter coat. He told the salesman he wanted to wear one of the new suits and the coat immediately. The salesman bow ed and smiled. Paul then took a taxi to another shop where he bought several pairs of leather shoes （皮鞋）and boots（靴子）. His last stop was a luggage（皮箱）store where he had all his new clothes put into expensive suitcases（行李箱）.It was a little before one o’clock in the afternoon when Paul arrived at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. The doormen opened the hotel’s glass doors for Paul and the boy enter ed. The thick carpet （地毯）under his feet had various beautiful colors. Paul told the hotel clerk（职员） he was from Washington, D.C. He said his mother and father were arriving in a few days from Europe. He explaine d he was going to wait for them at the hotel.In his dreams Paul had planned this trip to New York a hundred times. He knew a lot about the Waldorf-Astoria, one of New York’s most expensive hotels. As soon as he enter ed his rooms, he saw that everything was perfect － except for one thing. He rang the bell and asked for fresh flowers to be sent quickly to his rooms. When the flowers came, Paul put them in water and then he took a long, hot bath. He came out of the bathroom, wearing the red silk bathrobe(浴衣). Outside his windows, the snow was falling so fast that he could not see across the street. But inside, the air was warm and sweet. He lay down on the sofa in his sitting room. It had all been so simple, he thought. When they had shut him out of the theater and the concert hall, Paul knew he had to leave. But he was surprised that he had not been afraid to go. He could not remember a time when he had not been afraid of something, even when he was a little boy. But now he felt free. He wasn’t afraid anymore. He watched the snow until he fell asleep.It was four o’clo ck in the afternoon when Paul woke up. He spent nearly an hour getting dressed.He looked at himself often in the mirror. His dark blue suit fit him so well that he did not seem too thin. The white silk shirt and the blue tie felt cool and smooth under his fingers. He was exactly the kind of boy he had always wanted to be.Paul put on his new winter coat and went downstairs. He got into a taxi and told the driver to take him for a ride along Fifth Avenue. Paul stared at the expensive store s.As the taxi stopped for a red light ,Paul notice d a flower shop. Through the window, he could see all kinds of flowers. Then Paul began to feel hungry so he asked the taxi driver to take him back to the hotel. As he enter ed the dining room, the music of the hotel orchestra float ed up to greet him. He sat at a table near a window. The fresh flowers, the white tablecloth, and the colored wine glasses pleased Paul’s eyes. The soft music and the low voices of the people around him whisper ed into Paul’s ears.This is what everyone wants, he thought. He could not believe he had ever lived in Pittsburgh on Cordelia Street! That belonged to another time and place. Paul lifte d the crystal（水晶） glass and drank the cold precious（昂贵的）wine. He belong ed here.Later that evening, Paul put on his black tuxedo（晚礼服）and went to the opera（歌剧）. He felt perfectly at ease. He didn’t talk to anyone. But his eyes record ed everything.Paul’s golden days went by without a shadow（阴影）. He made each one as perfect as he could. On the eighth day after his arrival in New York, he found a report（报道） in the newspaper about his crime（罪）. It said that his father had paid the company the five thousand dollars that Paul had stolen. It said Paul had been seen in a New York hotel. And it said Paul’s father wa s in New York. He was looking for Paul to bring him back to Pittsburgh.Paul’s knees（膝盖） became weak. He sat down in a chair and put his head in his hands. The dream was ended. He had to go back to Cordelia Street. Back to the yellow-papered bedroom, the smell of cooked cabbage, the daily ride to work on the crowded (拥挤的)street buses.Paul pour ed himself a glass of wine and drank it slowly. He pour ed another glass and drank that one, too. Paul had a taxi take him out of the city and into the country. The taxi left him near some railroad tracks. Paul suddenly remember ed all the flowers he had seen in a shop window on his first night in New York. He realize d that by now every one of those flowers was dead. They had had only a very short splendid （辉煌的）moment to challenge winter.A train’s whistle broke into Paul’s thought s. He watch ed as the train grew bigger and bigger. As it came closer, Paul’s body shook. His face wore a frightened smile. Paul looked nervously around as if someone might be watching him.When the right moment came, Paul jump ed. And as he jump ed, he realize d his great mistake. The blue of the ocean and the yellow of the deser t flash ed through his brain(脑). He had not seen them yet! There was so much he had not seen! Paul felt something hit his chest（胸膛）. He felt his body fly through the air far and fast. Then everything ended and Paul drop ped back into a world unknown.1 The Crow and the Pitcher （乌鸦和水罐）Once upon a time a crow was very thirsty, so he was looking for water. He happened to find a pitcher under a tree. There was a little water in it, but he could not reach the water. “I want to drink that water,” said he to himself. “ How can l drink it?” He looked around and saw some small stones. So he flew to them and took one small stone and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he carried another small stone, and dropped it into the pitcher. He went to the stones and carried one stone every time. The water rose higher and higher. At last it came to the top of the pitcher. And now he managed to drink the water.2 The Lion and the Mouse（狮子与老鼠）Once a lion was sleeping in a wood when a little mouse happened to ran over his face. The lion awoke and caught the little mouse in anger. “ Oh, dear kind Lion!” Said the little mouse. " Please forgive me.I didn't mean to do you any harm. Let me go. I shall return your kindness." " Ha, ha," laughed the lion. " How can a little thing like you help a great lion? Anyway, I will let you go this time. " " Thank you very much, kind Lion! I hope that I shall be able to do you a favor in return some day," said the little mouse.Several days later the lion was caught in a trap(陷阱). Just then the little mouse came along. At once she ran up to the lion, and said, " You were very kind to me . Now I'll save your life and repay。

Forests once cleared for farming have started to grow back and black b ears have returned to them. But the bears are finding that their forest habitat has changed. Instead of thick forests covering thousands of acres, bears now have neighbors nearby. Roads,homes, schools, and shopping centers have been built at the edge of their forest home. And with humans and bears trying to share the same space, problems arise.Black bears usually prefer to avoid people, but their nose may lead them into trouble. Their normal diet includes nuts, insects, and plants. But given the opportunity, they will gladly help themselves to whatever they can find.With the great sense of smell, the bears can sniff out a tasty treat 2 or 3 miles away. Food left out in a park or backyard is an invitation to dinner. And while raiding (劫掠) a cooler, bird feeder (喂鸟器), trash can, car, or even a home, they can do a lot of damage. When that happens, people get angry. If another solution doesn’t immediately appear, they often want the bears killed.Bear Aware, Bear Wise, and Bear Smart are trying to keep that from happening. They want people to respect bears, not fear them, and are suggesting ways to r educe the chances of bears stopping by for a snack. They’re convincing (使相信) people that by following some simple steps, it’s possible to live peacefully with our wild neighbors.56. More black bears have appeared in the US because__________.A. farmers have grown more foodB. fo rests have increased in the USC. people stopped killing black bearsD. roads were built nearer to the forests57. We learn from the text that black bears _________.A. hate insects in forestsB. eat different foodsC. usually live in big groupsD. like to share space with humans58. The underlined words “sniff out” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.A. to express a low opinionB. to find something by chanceC. to refuse something in a proud wayD. to discover something by its smellBAfter the exam ination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s worse, a fter I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out lou d. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.In my room, Mom’s voice competed with the tickin g of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious (珍贵的) gift from a mother to her child.59. Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?A. They all wanted to have a good rest.B. The author didn’t do well in the exam.C. What the doctor said made them worried.D. They focused on the scenery along the road60. How did the author manage to get high marks?A. By being confidentB. By listening carefully.C. By getting help from his classmates.D. By reading as many books as possible.61. We can learn from the text that .A. the author’s sight recovered finallyB. reading made the author more sensitiveC. the author’s mother didn’t work to look after hi mD. reading made the author not worry about his sight62. Which of the following could be the title of the text?A. My eyesight troubleB. An unforgettable experienceC. With ears wide openD. About Mother’s loveCIf you are thinking of putting your child in a private high school instead of a public one, you should do some resear ch. You will find that most private schools offer some advantages.One of the most important details of a good high school is small class size. Many public schools might have 30 or even 35 students in each class. However, many private schools limit the size to about 15 to 20 kids per class. This is a good thing because it allows each teacher to offer every student m ore attention. X k B 1 Another thing to mention is the interesting classes. For example, while the typical (典型的) high school might only offer Spanish and French as foreign languages, private schools often have several other languages to choose from. This is especially important if your child is actually interested in studying a particular language that is not usually offered. Of course, many colleges also consider the various (各种各样的) classes as a good thing, since they can teach students more different subjects than usual. Some colleges actually work closely with schools to make sure students are prepared well to get an advanced education. This means that teachers are careful to teach skills that can be used in college. Also, college teachers may be on-hand to talk to students and give them advice. If you thin k your child could use some help of this kind, which would likely help prepare him or her for college, you should look into schools offering these things.A simple visit to the website or campus (校园) of a local private high school could give you the answers you are looking for. If you think your child would benefit from and appreciate these advantages, you should start researching. You are sure to find at least one that offers these benefits.63. By writing this text, the author is probably encouraging parents to .A. pay attention to their children’s studyB. appreciate the advantages of public schoolsC. help their children choose right collegesD. send their children to private high schools64. In the third paragraph the author stresses the importance of .A. teacher’s roleB. different kinds of classesC. learning foreign languagesD. proper study methods65. According to the text, colleges might like to choose students who .A. live close to collegesB. have interest in sportsC. have wide knowledgeD. come from public high schools短文改错This afternoon I was having a PE lesson while I fell down and hurt my foot.

We don’t think about a telephone or a television or a car as being rare. These things have become such an essential part of life that they are no longer noticed, let alone remarked upon.In the same way, within a decade no one will notice the World Wide Web. It will just be there, an essential part of life. It will be a reflex to turn to the web for shopping, education, entertainment and communication, just as it is natural today to pick up the telephone to talk to someone.There is an enormous interest in the Web. Yet it is still in its infancy(婴儿期). The technology and the speed of response are leaping forward. This will move more and more people to the web as part of their everyday lives. Eventually, everyone’s business card will have an electronic mail address. Every lawyer, every doctor and every business---- from large to small----with be connected.To predict that it will take over ten years for these changes to happen is probably pessimistic.

2019-2020学年浙江省平阳县第三中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案

2019-2020学年浙江省平阳县第三中学高三英语月考试卷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AA 21-year-old female student has become the youngest womanever to be elected as Mayor (市长) after first entering politics to campaign about food.Labor Party (工党) member Rosie Corrigan was elected as Mayor of Selby a market town in North Yorkshire, on Monday. The student’s election was unchallenged to the mayoralty, following a year serving as deputy mayor. Corrigan has just finished her second year studying politics at theUniversityofHull. A political activist since secondary school, lifelong Selby citizen Corrigan has always been ambitious. As a member of the UK Youth Parliament, she co-founded the Selby Youth council, and then went on to run for and win the local council election as a Labour candidate (候选人) aged just 18.Corrigan plan to use her year in office to further encourage political awareness in the youth of Selby. By breaking a political record of being the youngest woman ever elected inUKhistory, Corrigan hopes this will break the misunderstanding of Selby being a sleepy town with old-fashioned views. “It’s an honor to be the Mayor of my lovely hometown,” Corrigan told a newspaper. “I plan on using the year to encourage children and young people to champion their communities.”The politics student’s election has been supported whole heartedly by the politicians she has worked with throughout her early-developing career, including thebackingof former deputy Prime Minister (副首相) John Prescott. Simon Darvill said in an interview, “I hope that the success of Rosie and others like her encourages more young people to get involved in politics and change where they live for the better.”1. Which statement is true according to Paragraph 2?A. Corrigan is new to the political scene of Selby.B. Corrigan became interested in politics in childhood.C. Corrigan has been living in Selby since she was born.D. Corrigan founded the Selby Youth council by herself.2. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. Corrigan plans to further her time in office by at least a year.B. The people of Selby are passive and have out-of-date views.C. Corrigan is the youngest person ever elected inUKhistory.D. Corrigan intends to increase Selby’s youth’spolitical involvement.3. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “backing” in Paragraph 4?A. ApprovalB. AppreciationC. PraiseD. SupportBWhen almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline（座机）?These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter（29%）rely only on their smartphones according to a survey（调查）. Of those Australians who still have a landline, a thirdconcedethat it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket — 19 percent say they never use it while a further13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor （因素）— only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlinesnow and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who’ve perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn’t the only factor; I’d say it’s also to do with the makeup of your household.Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who iscalling before we pick up the phone（using Caller ID would take the fun out of it）.How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?4. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobilephones?A. Their target users.B. Their wide popularity.C. Their major functions.D. Their complex design.5. What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Admit.B. Argue.C. Remember.D. Remark.6. What can we say about Baby Boomers?A. They like smartphone games.B. They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.C. They keep using landline phones.D. They are attached to their family.7. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?A. It remains a family necessity.B. Itwill fall out of use some day.C. It may increase daily expenses.D. It is as important as the gas light.CIf you ever find yourself trapped in the wilderness without food, you'llhave to figure out how to feed yourself. Many plants in the wild areedible, but many are also poisonous. So it is necessary to learn how to determine whether the plants you find can be eaten safely.Avoid using this method without careful planning. Some plants can be deadly, and even if you follow these guidelines perfectly, there is always a chance that a plant will make you seriously ill. Prepare yourself for wilderness outings by learning about the local plants, and carry a guidebook to help you identify plants. Even if you are unprepared and cannot find food you know to be safe, remember that, depending on your activity level, the human body can go for days without food, and you’re better off being hungry than being poisoned.Testing the plant in your mouth is dangerous, so go forward very slowly and carefully. First, hold a small portion of the prepared plant part against your lip for 3 minutes. Do not put the plant in your mouth. If you notice any burning, tingling (刺痛), or other reactions, discontinue testing. Second, place another small portion of the plant part on your tongue. Hold the plant on your tongue without chewing for 15 minutes. Discontinue testing if you notice any reaction. Third, chew the plant and holdit in your mouth for 15 minutes. Chew the plant well, and do not swallow. Discontinue testing if you notice any reaction. Fourth, swallow the small portion of the plant. Wait 8 hours. Do not eat or drink anything during this period except purified water. If you feel sick, immediately throw up what you eat and drink plenty of water. If activated charcoal (活性炭) is available, take that with the water.8. What’s the meaning of the underlined world “edible” in paragraph 1?A. Suitable for using as food.B. Widely spread.C. Existing in large quantities.D. Not widely known.9. What can we know from paragraph 2?A. Planning is unnecessary when using the method.B. Not all plants in the wild can serve as food generally.C. Suffering hunger can be more dangerous than testing plants.D. Following the method perfectly can ensure safety.10. Which is the correct order of testing plants in the mouth?① wait and see ② chew it in the mouth③ put it on the tongue④ put it against lips ⑤ swallow itA. ③④②①⑤B. ④③②①⑤C. ③④②⑤①D.④③②⑤①11. Where might the passage come from?A. A student’s diary.B. A science report.C. A guide book for camping.D. A doctor’ s notebook.DOwning a dog is associated with a significantly lower risk of heart disease and death, according to a comprehensive new study published by a team of Swedish researchers on Friday in the journal Scientific Reports.The scientists followed 3.4 million people over the course of 12 years and found that adults who lived alone and owned a dog were 33 percent less likely to die during the study than adults who lived alone without dogs. In addition, the single adults with dogs were 36 percent less likely to die from heart disease.“Dog ownership was especiallyprominentas a protective factor in persons living alone, which is a group reported previously to be at higher risk of heart disease and death than those living in a multi-person household,” Mwenya Mubanga, a Ph.D. student at Uppsala University in Uppsala, Sweden, and the lead junior author of the study, said in a statement announcing its findings. The link between dog ownership and lower mortality(死亡率)was less pronounced in adults who lived either with family members or partners, but still present, according to the study. “Perhaps a dog may stand in as an important family member in the single households,” Mubanga added. “Another interesting findingwas that owners of dogs which were intended originally for hunting were most protected.”The study, which is the largest to date on the health relations of owning a dog, suggested that some of the reasons dog owners may have a lower risk of mortality and heart disease were because dog owners walk more. “These kind of epidemiological (流行病学的)studies look for associations in large populations but do not provideanswers on whether and how dogs could protect their owners from heart disease,” Tove Fall, a senior author of the study and a professor at Uppsala University, said in a statement“We know that dog owners in general have a higher level of physical activity, which could be one explanation to the observed results,” Fall added. “Other explanations include an increased well-being and social contacts or effects of the dog on the bacterial microbiome(微生物菌群) in the owner.” Fall added that because all participants of dog owners in Sweden or other “European populations with similar culture regarding dog ownership.”12. Why did the researchers do the study related to 3.4 million people’s health and the dogs?A. To help Europeans,B. To find their association.C. To protect unhealthy adults.D. To reduce risk of heart disease.13. What does the underlined word “prominent” probably mean in Para.3?A. Universal.B. Confusing.C. Appealing.D. Important14. What’s the main idea of the text?A. Adults living with dogs are less likely to die.B. Swedish people are very fond of animal pets.C. Keeping a dog is a popular and healthy hobby.D. Owning dogs reduces the risk of heart disease.15. What’s the writer’s attitude towards owning a dog?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Contradictory.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。

浙江省平阳县第三中学高三英语测试题（9.22-9.28）2I still remember the summer when I was with my aunt at the age of seven．One day, she asked me to go to Miss Bee's store with a 36 ．How could I find anything on the 37 shelves around me?I walked up to the counter, 38 up the list, and told the lady behind it I needed those． "So? Go to get them．" She 39 to a sign （牌子）on the door．"There's no one here except you and me and I'm n ot your servant． 40 yourself a basket and start filling．"The store was a 41 ．I searched shelf after shelf and when I finally 42 it, I was exhausted and it was already sundown．I visited Miss Bee's, 43 with my list, twice a week that summer．Sometimes she short-changed me．Other times she overcharged 44 sold me an old newspaper instead of one that was current．Going to the store was more like going into 45 ． Every time I told her that she had overcharged, she just looked at me 46 her glasses and fixed the price．The moment I remembered the location of an item．Miss Bee rearranged the shelves and made me 47 for it all over again．By summer's end the shopping trip that had 48 taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes．On my last trip to the store．Miss Bee asked: "What did you 49 this summer?" That you're mean! I pressed my lips together．To my 50 , Miss Bee laughed．"I know what you think of me．But I am 51 to teach every child some life lessons． When you grow up you'll be glad our paths 52 !" Glad I met Miss Bee? I thought it a stupid 53 until one day my daughter came to me with homework troubles．"If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?" I said．Suddenly, I was back at Miss Bee's store and realized that she had really taught me 54 ．Now it is my turn to share some 55 lessons as Miss Bee did years ago．36．A．basket B．purse C．paper-bag D．list37．A．broken B．fastened C．packed D．locked38．A．holding B．showing C．throwing D．bringing39．A．looked B．led C．pointed D．directed40．A．Get B．Prepare C．Purchase D．Enjoy41．A．circus B．puzzle C．palace

became famous for her simple, bright, cheerful paintings of American farm life．Her full name was Anna Mary Robertson Moses．But she was known to everyone as Grandma Moses because she did not begin to paint seriously until in her seventies．Born on a farm in New York, Anna had little schooling．Her days were filled with farm chores．But she often found time to make pictures．Soon, however, she became too busy to draw or paint．At the age of 12, she went to work as a servant for a family nearby．She worked for other people for many years．Then, whenshe was 27, she married Thomas Moses, a farmer．And they began raising a family of their own．Anna Moses could no longer do heavy farm work with age．Then, in her seventies, she began to paint in oils．Her pictures showed things she recalled from childhood-farm scenes, ice-skating, bringing home the Christmas tree．Later, she began to display her art at county fairs．Her pictures recorded a way of life that was quickly passing away．People everywhere loved these happy scenes, and soon her paintings were shown in art galleries．Grandma Moses became famous partially on account of her age, but mainly because her approach to art was modest and simple compared to many other painters of her time．Without formal training or even knowledge of Modernism, she relied on her own simple techniques to create her landscapes and scenes．She continued to paint almost until her death, on December 13, 1961 , at the age of 101．The themes in her paintings provided the comfort of a rural life that many busy Americans treasured from their past．The threat of nuclear arms that appeared on television screens and in magazines had Americans starving for something more．Grandma Moses' art appealed to those who had lost hope for the future．Her classic paintings still appear on TV commercials, greeting cards, and magazine and book covers．56．What can be inferred from the fact that Grandma Moses picked up a paintbrush?A．She had no other ways to kill time． B．Her friend and family suggested it．C．She had had a love for painting since her childhood．D．She needed to make a living by selling her paintings．57．The key reason for her success is ___ .A．her old age B．her plain styleC．her lack of training D．her modern knowledge58．We can know from the passage that ______．A．her paintings raised people's hope for the futureB．her paintings expressed the reality of her old ageC．many Americans were interested in purchasing art worksD．people wanted to get comfort by remembering grandmasBSpeaking two languages rather than just one has o bvious practical benefits in an incr easingly globalized world．But in recent years, scientists have begun to show that the advantages of bilingualism （双语能力） are even more important than being able to converse with a wider range of people．Being bilingual, it turns out, makes you smarter．It can have a deep effect on your brain, improving skills not related to language and even protecting against a serious mental disorder in old age．This view of bilingualism is different from the understanding of bilingualism through much of the 20th century．Researchers, educators and policy makers long considered a second language to be an interruption that prevented a child's school work and ability to think and understand things．They were not wrong about the interruption: there is ample evidence that in a bilingual \s brain both language systems are active even when he is using only one language, thus creating situations in which one system disturbs the other．But this interruption, researchers are finding out, isn't so much a disturbance．It forces the brain to solve inside conflict, giving the mind a workout that strengthens its thinking muscles．The key difference between bilinguals and monolinguals may be more basic: a heightened ability to monitor the environment．"Bilinguals have to switch languages quite often—you may talk to your father in one language and to your mother in another language," says Albert Costa, a researcher at the University of Pompea Fabra in Spain．"It requires keeping track of changes around you in the same way tha t we monitor our surroundings when driving．" In a study comparing German-Italian bilinguals with Italian monolinguals on monitoring tasks, Mr．Costa and his colleagues found that the bilingual subjects not only performed better, but they also did so with less activity in parts of the brain involved in monitoring, showing that they did better in it．59．From the passage we can learn that experts used to believe that ______．A．interruption forced a bilingual's brain to strengthen its thinking abilityB．a second language stopped children's studying as well as mental developmentC．using two languages annoyed the children who have trouble in learning skillsD．language systems were busy in a bilingual's brain when he was using languages60．The underlined word "switch" in Paragraph 3 probably means "______"．A．change B．Use C．speak D．study61．What is the author's attitude towards bilingualism?A．Cautious． B．Doubtful． C．Concerned． D．Favourable．62．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．How Bilinguals Use Languages B．What Bilingualism Is Really aboutC．Why Bilinguals Are More Intelligent D．When People Learn a Second LanguageCThe Segway Human Transporter was invented by Dean Kamen．It is a two-wheeled vehicle designed for a single rider standing upright over its single axle（轴） and navigate using a set of handlebars resembling those on a bicycle．Electrically powered, it could travel over 15 miles on a single charge and reach speeds up to twelve miles per hour．Its speed and direction can be controlled by riders' changing their weights．A college dropout and self-taught engineer, Kamen already held over 100 patents for his inventions when he developed the one he hoped would revolutionize short-distance travel．While still in college, Kamen started developing the medical devices （设备） that made his name．Later, he changed focus to the challenges faced by wheelchair users．His robotic wheelchair known as IBOT could climb stairs．This robot ended up paving the way for the Segway．Before showing his most recent invention, Kamen had kept it a top secret for months．When it turned out to be little more than a motor scooter, many publicly expressed their disappointment．On closer examination, however, even his critics（批评家） had to admit that the vehicle was an engineering achievement．It answered the prayers of anyone who is worn out w hen walking downtown．Not everyone welcomed the Segway's arrival, though．Some complained it was too expensive, while others said it would further weaken the average American ' s fitness．A Japanese inventor even accused Kamen of stealing the idea for the Segway from him．Despite the controversy, the U．S．postal service began using Kamen's invention a month after its appearance, and a factory was built with plans to produce about 40,000 Segways every month．The argument is still on whether the Segway will be remembered as the greatest invention since the light bulb, or just another forgettable electronic device．Anyway, trips to the local supermarket will never be the same again．63．Which statement best describes the critics' reaction to the Segway?A．Nothing but an electrical device． B．A disappointing engineering mistake．C．An expensive and disappointing
