浙江省杭州市2019届高三高考模拟卷二英语试卷SYS201907080741一、阅读理解详细信息1. 难度：中等Seventy-three-year-old George McNeilon selected his food in Value Mart very carefully. After leaving the cashier, he estimated (估计) that he had saved 80 cents and thought that he had got good value for his money again.At the exit, the chilly wind reminded him of his gloves. “Now where are they?” He searched here and there, but nowhere could he find them. He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. The worried man made a second search in all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. He was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.George bought the gloves at a 25% discount, for just $30, ten years ago. They were genuine lambskin (小羊皮), soft, warm and durable. Until then, he had worn cheaper man-made material that lasted no more than three years. His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. He enjoyed being envied.Bad luck, George thought, to lose his expensive gloves on New Year’s Eve. He reentered the store and followed the same route he had walked before. But several minutes of anxious search turned out to be in vain. “Society has changed. People have changed …” he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if people picked up something lost, they would give it back.”Back home, George was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. If he bought cheap ones, he would have to replace them very soon. If he bought new leather ones, they would cost forty dollars.After the holiday, poor George decided to buy another pair of leather gloves. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office.“What color are they?” the woman in the office asked.“Black,” he answered.She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves.“Are they?”“Yes! Those are mine!”1.Which of the following is the most probable reason for George’s shopping?A. To kill time in Value Mart as usual.B. To prepare for the coming New Year.C. To prove how wise he was with money.D. To see whether there were gloves on sale.2.What do we know about old George McNeilon?A. Pure but impolite.B. Clever but simple.C. Economical but vain.D. Warmhearted but poor.3.What can be inferred from the passage?A. In daily life, accidents will happen.B. Never ever jump to conclusions.C. A penny saved is a penny earned.D. A loss may turn out to be a gain.SYS20190708074详细信息2. 难度：中等Twenty-five years ago, as a parent educator, I began reading about the dangers of praise. I was completely shocked by what I was learning: praise is not good for our kids. How could that be? So I spent years talking with experts, reading about the effects of praise, and finally decided to close the door on praise and focus on building an encouraging family.Even today, with many studies available to parents, I still hear people say, “How can that be? How can saying ‘Good job’ or‘You’re smart’ be bad?” I understand. It can be a difficult habit to break.If we tell a boy “You are so smart!” when he brings home an A in his math test, how does he feel when he comes home with a D? Ifwe’ve told him that he is smart, then he will more likely feel a failure when he struggles with homework —“I’m supposed to be smart. Why can’t I do this?”Praise trains children to depend on constant feedback on what a “great job” they are doing. This dependency shatters rather than builds children’s confidence. Praise trains children to ask, “Do you like it?” “Did I do a good job?” “Are you proud of me?” They begin to believe that what others think is more important than what they think about their achievements and mistakes.Praise breaks the relationship between parents and children. Without even realizing it, parents may be using praise as a tool to direct the child’s behavior. The message is clear — I approve of you when you … and I do not approve of you when you … Living with this kind of constant judgment can damage not only the child’s con fidence but also the relationship.The solution to the problem of praise is encouragement. Encouragement can be given at any time, to anyone, in any situation. It is acomment, an acknowledgment, a statement that focuses on effort, improvement or choice. H earing “You are so smart!” can leave achild at a loss when they don’t do well in a test. Using “That took a lot of work to come home with an A in your test …” gives a child the chance to be something else.1.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?A. Many parents can’t get on well with their children.B. The author never shows any approval to his children.C. It’s hard for many parents to believe praise is harmful.D. The author spent 25 years changing people’s opinion on praise.2.According to the passage, it seems that parents’ praise ______.A. can lead to children’s being smartB. might have just the opposite effectC. is a good tool to educate their childrenD. helps them get along well with their children3.Which of the following is a good example of encouragement?A. You are very good at math.B. You are the best artist I have ever seen.C. You have a problem and you have to fix it.D. You didn’t think you could finish in time, but you did.SYS20190708074详细信息3. 难度：中等The number of giraffes is becoming smaller across Africa, according to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. The total population has dropped by 40 percent in the last 15 years. Surprisingly, even scientists hav en’t given much attention to giraffes. We are learning more about their ecology, but what we know is still way behind what we know about other species. “It’s a silent extinction,” said Dr. Julian Hennessy, a wildlife scientist.“The main reason for the sma ller number of giraffes is their loss of living places,” said Hennessy, “as an increasing part of land is used for farming. But hunting also has a big influence.” You might wonder why hunters would focus on giraffes. First of all, once a giraffe is brought down, there is lots of meat with a small amount of effort. Besides, there is another thing encouraging the hunting. In Tanzania, Hennessy says, the latest word on the street is that eating giraffe meat could cure AIDS. Fresh giraffe heads and bones can be sold at prices of up to $140 per piece.Another widespread misconception about giraffes is that they are everywhere. Look at kids’ books which are full of giraffes. They are always in zoo collections. They can be seen easily, so you don’t think we have to worry about them. But the truth is that they are indanger of extinction. There is a lack of right and true data. Hennessy and other researchers are now pulling together the data needed to improve the situation of the entire giraffe species and all nine subspecies (亚种). The information will be used to change the giraffe’s listing on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, which now lists the species as of “least concern” but two subspecies as “endangered”. “It’s a lot of work to gather the necessary information,” Hennessy says. “And several other giraffe subspecies will be recommended for endangered listings next year or the year after.” He hopes that the world will finally start to take notice of how endangered these beloved animals have become.1.By saying “It’s a silent extinction”, Hennessy tells us that______.A. giraffes are unpopular in AfricaB. the giraffe is always silent in daily lifeC. the ecology of Africa needs more attentionD. the extinction occurs without enough attention2.What has caused the high price of giraffe meat in Tanzania?A. The country’s custom.B. The illegal international trade.C. The cost of hunting a giraffe.D. The idea that it’s a cure for AIDS.3.The misconception in Para. 3 can be corrected by ______.A. preventing illegal hunting in AfricaB. rewriting kids’ books about giraffesC. providing reliable data about giraffesD. spreading scientific knowledge of AIDS4.The final purpose of Hennessy’s great effort is to ______.A. collect more information about giraffesB. raise public awareness of protecting giraffesC. prove giraffes will disappear in the next few yearsD. work with the International Union for Conservation of NatureSYS201907080742二、七选五详细信息4. 难度：中等How old is “old” ? 1.. Two hundred years ago, you were old at 35. That was the average life then. At the turn of this century, as medical knowledge advanced, the average life span(长度) increased to 45. In 1950, 70-year-olds were really old. Today, a healthy 70-year-old is looking forward to many more active years.So, how old is old? The answer is one you’ve heard many times, from all sorts of people. “You are as old (or young) as you feel!” The calendar(日历) simply tells you how many years you have lived. 2. Once an unknown author wrote ,“3. . Nobody grows old by living anumber of years; people grow old by giving up their goals.”4.. Alice Brophy, when she was with the New York City commission for the Aging, said, “It upsets me when people say, ‘Gee, you look young for your age!’ What does that mean? Is there some model that you’re supposed to look a certain way at 65 and 75 and 85? You know you can die old at 30 and live young at 80”There are many wrong ideas about aging.5.. Here are some of the more common ones.For example, most older people are in poor health, or older people are unable to change.A. It’s extremely terrible to be grown old.B. Youth is not a time of life but it is a state of mind.C. These ideas stereotype(固化) people on the basis of age.D. Old is a point of view.E. Older people are stubborn, unable to change.F. The answer has changed over the years.G. Your body tells you how well you’ve lived.SYS201907080743三、完形填空详细信息5. 难度：困难I was eighteen years old and I was the golden girl.

浙江省杭州市2019届高三5月仿真考试英语试卷【含答案及解析】姓名___________ 班级____________ 分数__________一、阅读理解1. On 29 May last year, I was doing my swim training for a half Ironman race in the bay near my home.I was finishing my first loop ( 圈 ) when I felt jaws coming around my body and a sharp pain. The water was dark, so I couldn’t see anything. It just came out of nowhere and then it was gone in a flash. I knew it was something really big and assumed it was a shark. I panicked, but knew I needed to get out of the water. I was kicking wildly in case it came back. There was a lifeguard boat close by, so I waved my arms in the air and screamed for help. It got to me within 20 seconds. At that point I didn’t feel anything; adrenaline ( 肾上腺素 ) had taken over. The lifeguards held me under the arms and pulled me up out of the water. Then the pain kicked in and it was pretty hard to bear. Some muscle had been bitten off my right arm. I felt a lot of warm, gushing blood.My chest felt heavy, as if someone had put their foot on it, and I was having trouble breathing. It was extremely painful. When I got to the hospital, Itold the nurses to put me to sleep because of the pain. I just wanted them to fix me.I woke up after surgery four hours later. My doctor was amazed when I managed to move my fingers: the bite just missed a major nerve. My right lung had been damaged; I had several broken bones and a nerve in my leg was cut, so I have reduced feeling at the top of my leg. The shark also bit through my upper back muscle.Local experts determined that the shark was probably 9-10 feet long. It was young, about seven years old. It just attacked me, left and didn’t come back because it figured I wasn’t food.1. The writer mentions Adrenaline in Paragraph 2 to ________.A. explain why she didn’t feel pain at that timeB. offer a possible reason the shark attacked herC. show how dangerous the situation was thenD. describe the suffering a shark bite could cause2. The writer of the text can be best described as ________.A. gratefulB. confidentC. toughD. aggressive3. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A. A Shark from NowhereB. Surviving a Shark AttackC. A Race against TimeD. No Panic over Sharks at Sea2. It is made from grapes grown without pesticides ( 杀虫剂 ) and chemicals,is kind to the environment and rarely causes hangovers ( 酒后头痛 ). Sales of organic wine are booming in the UK.According to the organic food and farming group Soil Association, sales of organic beers, wines and spirits rose by 14.3% last year to reach nearly £6 million, driven by the demand from consumers who are increasingly seeking “natural” food.“It seems that people are rediscovering their link with the environmen t through organic food. Organic wines also taste better, perhaps due to less use of man-made chemicals.” said Finn Cottle of Soil Association. As well as the benefits of producing grapes without using pesticides, organic wine also contains less sulphur dioxide ( 二氧化硫 ), which can contribute towards hangovers.Supermarkets are increasing supplies on their shelves to meet consumer demand, while the switch to online shopping has also helped, as people are more easily able to find what they are looking for. Vi ntage Roots is now one of the UK’s biggest online shops of organic wine, while Ocado provides more than 100 different organic wines and Daylesford, best-known for its organic vegetable boxes, has branched out into organic wine and spirits.The discount supermarket Aldi is set to start its first collection of so-called “green” wines this week, offering eight wines with organic certificates. Aldi expects the wines to appeal to the young shoppers who are increasingly concerned about the environmental influence of the produce that they are buying and consuming.English organic wine producer Oxney Estate’s Noir Rosé recently won the Waitrose prize for the most outstanding rosé wine at the competition. Aspokeswoman for Waitrose said: “Organic wine is a growin g trend globally and we have seen sales increase by 16% in the last year”.1. Sales of organic wine are increasing probably because ________.A. consumers are now more environmentally awareB. it offers a very different taste from traditional wineC. consumers are tired of hangovers after drinkingD. it contains no sulphur dioxide or pesticide2. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4?A. UK supermarkets welcome organic wine and spirits.B. Online shopping promotes the sales of organic wine.C. There’re not enough supplies of organic wine in the UK.D. Supermarkets should go online to sell more wine.3. “Waitrose” in the last paragraph is probably ________.A. a wine producerB. an organic wineC. a wine competitionD. a news agency4. The writing purpose of the text is to ________.A. persuade readers to go green while drinkingB. compare organic wine and traditional wineC. share with readers wines without hangoversD. introduce a new consuming trend in the UK3. I t’s official. Denmark—as well as being the world’s best country to live in for women with the second-happiest people and one of the best healthcare systems in Europe—has the most contented babies. Or, at least, the ones who cry the least. According to research published in the Journal of Pediatrics , Danish, German and Japanese babies cry the least, while British, Canadian and Italian babies cry the most.“I’m not surprised,” Danish parenting expert and co-author of The Danish Way of Parenting Jessica Ale xander tells me. “The first year of a child’slife is considered so important in Denmark. Danish parents are much less stressed because they get good maternity and paternity leave ( 孕产假 ). The atmosphere is much calmer and, if mothers are getting more time off, that goes hand in hand with less stress, more contact, more routines and less crying.” She pauses before throwing in a final tip: “Oh, and Danish babies sleep outdoors a lot.”In Denmark, a woman is given four weeks pregnancy leave followed by 52 weeks of paid leave that can be shared between parents. And Alexander thinks thereis another important reason why Danish babies cry less: breastfeeding. “It’s just the done thing in Denmark,” she says of a country that has the world’shighest breastfeeding rates. “In other countries, there are continual discussions about whether you should or shouldn’t breastfeed. In Denmark, breastfeeding has never gone out of style. And everyone does it for a year.”For Iben Sandahl, Alexander’s co-author, it comes down to the Danishattitude to life in general. “We are an honest and pure people,” she tells me. “We are surrounded by social support and are less likely to become angry, sad or annoyed when our babies are crying. And we are good at embracing ( 拥抱 ) all kinds o f feelings, so we aren’t scared. Instead, we try to connect with the babies when they cry. It’s how babies communicate and it’s about trying to understand it.”1. Which of the following can make a baby cry less?A. An effective healthcare system.B. More company from a parent.C. An energetic busy mother.D. More chances to meet fellow babies.2. It can be learned from the text that ________.A. something in the milk from breastfeeding can keep babies happyB. Demark is second to none in prote cting its females’ rightsC. Danish parents’ attitudes to a baby’s first year vary considerablyD. breastfeeding is a common and accepted practice in Denmark3.

But did you know that there are ways to make your brain healthier and smarter? Studies show that when the brain is forced to do something new, it creates new neural ( 神经的 ) pathways. 1.● Limit your TV viewing.Watching an average TV show requires very little brain power and brings the same result as neglecting ( 忽视 ) physical exercise. 2. If you watch TV, choose something educational and informative.● Use your non-dominant ( 非支配的 ) hand.If you are right-handed, use your left hand for everyday activities, or use your right hand if you are left-handed. Doing familiar things in a new waywill cause your brain to create new neural networks. Brushing our teeth is something we do daily. 3. But maybe we should. Experts suggest that we can force the brain to work by changing things up and working with our non-dominant hand. So the next time you brush your teeth, open the tube, applyyour toothpaste and brush with the opposite hand.● 4.Jump in the shower and shut your eyes. Even if you drop the soap—that’s okay. 5. Searching for the soap while feeling the textures ( 质地 ) with your eyes closed works. Using your fingers to make fine distinctions betweenobjects or textures can reconnect the brain areas involved in touch, suggests Larry Katz, a professor of neurobiology at Duke University Medical Center and author.A. Shower with your eyes closed.B. Smart people rarely follow a set pattern.C. The more pathways you have, the smarter you will be.D. Use your different senses.E. We really don’t put that much thought into it.F. Put your brain to best use.G. Your brain will become weak just as your muscles do.三、完形填空5.

浙江省杭州市2019届高三高考模拟卷一英语试卷SYS201907100731一、阅读理解详细信息1. 难度：简单A monk lived with his brother, a one-eyed idiot(a very stupid person).One day ,when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(a scientist who studies religions) who had come from far away to meet him, he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theologian arrived. He told his brother:“Receive this scholar and treat him well！Do n’t say a word to him，and everything will be OK.”The monk left the temple. Upon returning, he went to meet his guest. “Did my brother receive you properly?”asked the monk.“You brother is outstanding. He’s a great theologian!”exclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm.“What do you mean? My brother---a theologian?”stuttered(结巴地说)the surprised monk.“We had a passionate conversation,”replied the scholar.“We communicated professionally by means of gestures. I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three fingers I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: Buddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother.“So how did it go earlier with the theologian?”he asked.“Very simple,”said the brother.“He made fun of me ;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he continued, ‘Be that as it may ,between us, we have three eyes.’ That was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Showing him a closed fist, I threatened to lay him out right then and there if he didn’t stop his insulting challenges.”1.According to the passage, the monk’s brother is aperson__________.A. who was a great theologianB. who was a three-eyed idiotC. who was a one-eyed theologianD. who was a fool with only one eye2.The theolo gian thought the monk’s brother as a great theologian because ______.A. the brother was a one-eyed idiotB. the brother could communicate properly and politely by means of gesturesC. the brother had deep thoughts of BuddhismD. the theologian himself mis understood the brother’s gestures3.What would the monk do after he heard of his brother’s explanation on how it went earlier with the theologian?A. The monk would be very angry with his brother and beat him.B. The monk would be very happy and praise him.C. The monk would apologize to the theologian and his brother.D. The monk would think what a funny misunderstanding it was.4.According to what the theologian said, he considered the monk’s brother’s fist to be the meaning of _____________.A. a threat to himB. an encouragement to himC. a unity of the Buddha, theory and the worldD. one eye of himselfSYS20190710073详细信息2. 难度：中等Throughout history, artist, inventors, writers and scientists have solved problems in their dreams. Now, let’s have a look together at some of them.1.Paul McCartney Found Yesterday in a dreamPaul McCartney is one of the most famous singers/songwriters of all time. According to the Guinness Book of Records, his Beatles song Yesterday(1965) has the most cover（翻唱） versions of any song ever written and, according to record label BMI，was performed over seven million times in the 20th century.The tune for Yesterday came to Paul McCartney in a dream.“I woke up with a lovely tune in my head. I thought, ’That’s great, I wonder what that is?’ There was an upright piano next to me, to the right of my bed by the window. I got out of bed, sat at the piano, found G, found F sharp minor---- and that leads you through then to B to E minor, and finally back to E. It all leads forward logically. I liked the _melody a lot, but because I’d dreamed it, I couldn’t believe I’d written it. I thought, ‘No,I’ve never written anything like this before.’ But I had the tune, which was the most magic thing! ”2. Mary Shelley’s Frankentein Inspired by a DreamIn the summer of 1816, nineteen-year-old Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin and her lover, the poet Percy Shelley (whom she married later that year),visited the poet Lord Byron at his villa beside Lake Geneva inSwitzerland. Stormy weather frequently forced them indoors, where they and Byron’s other guests sometimes read from a volume of ghost stories. One evening, Byron challenged his guests to each write one themselves.Mary’s story, inspired by a dream, became Frankentein（科学怪人）. “When I placed my head upon my pillow, I did not sleep, nor could I be said to think----My eyes shut ,I saw------with my acute mental vision----the pale student of unholy arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the ugly figure of a man stretch out, and then , on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and tremble with an uneasy motion, extremely frightful. The next morning I announced that I had thought of a story. I began that day wi th the words, ‘It was on a dull night of November’, making only a transcript(文字稿) of the cruel terror of my waking dream.”1.We can learn from the whole passage that_________A. Some great stories, poems and songs were created while their writers slept.B. Paul McCartney likes writing songs in dreams.C. Frankentein was written by Byron’s guests.D. Byron was an ugly frightful Frankentein.2.The underlined word“melody”has the similar meaning of _______.A. dreamB. songC. tuneD. instrument3.Which is the best title of the whole passage?A. The Greatest writersB. The most famous song and storyC. Great dreams that come trueD. How to dreamSYS20190710073详细信息3. 难度：困难Education is not a bystanders sport. Numerous researchers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school, and that positive attitudes promote learning. It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom discussion and score lower than boys on SATs.We found that at all grade levels in all communities and in all subject areas boys controlled classroom communication. They participated in more interactions than girls did, and their participation became greater as the year went on.Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention. That teachers talk more to male students is simply becauseboys are more aggressive in grabbing their attention by calling out answers to the teachers’ questions first. While girls sit patiently with their hands raised or keep silent. Psychologist Lisa Serbin and K.Daniel O’Leary, then at the state university of New York at stony brook studied classroom interaction at preschool level and found that teachers gave boys more attention, praised them more often and were at least twice as likely to have extended conversations with them. Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself. It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers. Teachers behave differently depending on whether boys or girls are active to provide answers during discussions. During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys answers with powerful, precise and effective responses, while they often gavegirls mild and unclear reactions because of their silence. Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically. And they are more likely to be boys.This kind of communication game is played at work, as well as at school. As reported in numerous studies, it goes like this.※Men speak more often and frequently interrupt women.※ Listeners recall more from male speakers than from female speakers, even when both use a similar speaking style and cover the same content.※Women participate less actively in conversation. They do more smiling and gazing, and they are more often the passive by standers in professional and social conversations among peers.※Women often their own statements into unsure comments. This is accomplished by using qualifiers and by adding tag question. These uncertain patterns weaken impact and signal a lack of power and influence.Only when girls are active and treated equally in the classroom will they be more likely to achieve equality in the workplace.1.What does the authors mean when they say“Education is not a bystanders sport.”?A. Both boys and girls should do more sports.B. The girl students should be the audience to watch the boy students’ discussions.C. The boy students should not be too active in the classroom discussions.D. Both boy and girl students should take an active part in the classroom discussions.2.Which of the following is Not true?A. G irls’ scores are lower than boys on SATs.B. Girls control classroom discussion in reading while boys in maths.C. Boys control classroom discussion in both reading and maths.D. Boys are more confident in calling out answers to catching the teachers’ atte ntion.3.The factors that contribute to the students’ effective learning are the following except__________A. The students can take an active part in the classroom discussion.B. The students do it themselves.C. Teachers can give students specific and direct feedback thequality of their work and answers.D. Students transform their own statements into uncertain comments.SYS201907100732二、七选五详细信息4. 难度：中等Eight Things That Lead to Success“What leads to success?”This may be a question asked by those who want to make something of their life. For seven years, Richard. John made 500 interviews. Here he wants to tell you what really leads to success.And the first thing is passion.Freeman Thom as says,“I'm driven by my passion.”TED-sters do it for love; they don't do it for money. Carol Coletta says, “I would pay someone to do what I do.” 1.WorkRupert Murdoch said to me, “It's all hard work. Nothing comes easily. But I have a lot of fun.”Did h e say fun? Rupert? Yes!2.I figure, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics（醉心工作者）.Good!Alex Garden says,“To be successful put your nose down in something and get damn good at it”There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice.And it's focus.Norman Jewison said to me, “I think it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing.”And push!David Gallo says, “Push yourself. Physically. mentally, you've got to push, push, push. You gotta push through shyness and self-doubt.”Goldie Hawn says, “I always had self-doubts. I wasn’t good enough; I wasn't smart enough. I didn't thinkI'd make it." 3. (Laughter) Frank Gehry said to me,“My mother pushed me.”Serve!Sherwin Nuland says,“It was a privilege to serve as a doctor.”4. And the first thing I say to them is：“OK, well you can’t serve yourself; you gotta serve others something of value. Because that’s the way people really get rich.”Ideas!TE D-ster Bill Gates says, “I had an idea: founding the first microcomputer software company.”I'd say it was a pretty good idea. And there's no magic to creativity in coming up with ideas- it's just doing some very simple things. And I give lotsof evidence.5.Joe Kraus says, “Persistence is the number one reason for our success.”You got to persist through failu re. You got to persist through CRAP! Which of course means “Criticism, Rejection, Assholes and Pressure.” (Laughter)A. So why don’t I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids?B. And the interesting thing is: If you do it for love, the money comes anyway.C. Now a lot of kids tell they want to be millionaires.D.LED-sters do have fun working. And they work hard.E. Persist!F. Investing their money in pursuing a future lifestyle rather thanin an academic conquest.G. Now it's not always e asy to push yourself, and that’s why they invented mothers.SYS201907100733三、完形填空详细信息5. 难度：中等Dear Mr. Jones,I expect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from someone living as near as your next-door neighbor; but I have to raise a_______that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing.

2019年浙江杭州高三下学期高考模拟英语试卷-学生用卷一、阅读理解（共10小题，每小题2.5分，共25分）1、【来源】 2019年浙江杭州高三下学期高考模拟（A篇）第21~23题7.5分Many of us just laugh it away when they are told incredible（难以置信的）stories about other people, but I have a deep interest in these stories and I prefer to believe they are true. Here' one I collected from a total stranger." Well, I was 11 when any family arrived at Fern Lake overlooking Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park. It was so beautiful to look miles across the Rockies and thousands of feet below into the valley. My parents were busy getting lunch out of the trunk so I climbed over the wooden fence to get closer to the cliff edge in the hope that I would' miss any beautiful sight down there.I started down a little hill but soon started sliding on loose pebble rocks（鹅卵石）. I fell on my back, but kept going faster and faster to what seemed the edge of the world （a 2, 000-foot drop）. In seconds I knew I was going to die. My feet and legs went first over the edge at a high speed. Then suddenly I felt two hands push hard on my chest and stopped me dead. My heart was racing and I slowly inched my body back to where I finally could make it back up the hill.My father was waiting there and screaming at me for doing such a dangerous stunt（特技）. I triedto tell him and my mom about the hands that held me back, but to this day they don't believe me. They thought I was just trying to get out of trouble with a made-up story. "We parted ways, but I assured her that I believed every word of her story. I could see a little surprise and happiness on her face.That' why I always ask people to share their miracles（奇迹）. Each real story makes my days full of hope and gratefulness.(1) The girl got closer to the cliff edge to.A. take an adventureB. better enjoy the viewC. collect pebble rocksD. play a joke on her parents(2) In the writer's eyes, the girl·A. made up an exciting storyB. reached the bottom of the valleyC. enjoyed doing dangerous stuntsD. was saved by a magical force(3) The writer is interested in people's miracle stories because they.A. are often told in an amusing wayB. seem unbelievable but actually trueC. prove that life is full of miracleD. help him stay positive about life2、【来源】 2019年浙江杭州高三下学期高考模拟（B篇）第24~27题10分People like to post their selfies（自拍照）on social media. To know more about it, scientists at Syracuse University in New York recently did research and came up with some surprising findings.People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to narcissism （自恋）, the researchers said. Makana Chock, a professor from Syracuse University, said because social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives, it is a good place for people to "work towards satisfying their own TAL#NBSP vanity". Those "likes" under their online selfies make them feel good.Besides, people who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the research found. Some people feel "peer（同伴）pressure" to post selfies and some follow the popular belief that if there is no picture of an event or experience, it does not really happen. "Anyway, it shouldn't be seen as negative. People get sense of satisfaction especially when they get likes. And it does no harm, " Chock said.Other findings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. But men who post selfies show more of a need to be seen as popular than women who post selfies.Chock said posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years. On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phoned to take photos. They would bring back photos to show friends and family. You had no choice but to look at them. You probably commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. They were happy to hear your comments. That was the old way of "clicking like". On social media, however, people can decide not to look at photos-even if they click "like".(1) What is the research mainly about?A. The ways of making people look better in selfies.B. The reasons for people posting selfies on social media.C. The differences between men and women in posting selfies.D. The connections between posting selfies and mental health.(2) What does the word "vanity" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. A deep desire to know about something.B. A special need to be more popular.C. Too much pride in one's own appearance.D. Strong determination to improve oneself.(3) What is Chock's attitude towards selfie posting?A. Ambiguous.B. Cautious.C. Disapproving.D.

For 15 minutes, he didn't get enough oxygen, which severely damagedcertain parts of his brain. "He had to receive treatment on the scene. Luckily, he survived, " says Feddersen, the author of the study.Weeks after the accident, when the young man was ready for recovery treatment, something bizarre happened; When the patient solved Sudoku puzzle, he suddenly had seizures of his left arm—something the medical world hadn't seen before.Feddersen explains:" In order to solve a Sudoku, the patient used parts of his brain which are responsible for vision-space tasks.But exactly those brain parts had been damaged in the accident and then caused the seizures once they were used."This particular case is an example of what doctors call reflex epilepsy（反射性癫痫）, according to Dr. Jacqueline French, professor from NYU Langone School of Medicine."You have to have an injury to your brain first, and then seizures like that can happen, " she says.In the meantime, the patient from the case study stopped solving Sudoku puzzle forever and has been seizure-free for more than five years."

This will be the most important partof the process, because it will determine what career you will choose after college. This decision is not the end; you can definitely change majors once you're in college.2Next, it's time to decide if you want to stay close to your hometown or go away for college. Both options have their own pros and cons. These pros and cons can vary from money and how much financial aid the college will provide for you, job success after graduation, opportunities the college offers such as studying abroad or internships, to how many people attend the college.34Would you mind living in the area surrounding the campus? Does it have a good program for your major? Does the college have big or small classes? Which would you prefer? How is the college ranked? Does ranking matter to you? Is the campus big or small? Which would you prefer? Does the school feel like a good personal fit?Make sure to also do research on alumni（校友）, current students and professors who are present on the different campuses of the colleges you are inquiring about. It's always better to do great research than none at all and pick a college you know nothing about and regret your decision in the end. And if this happens, you'll end up transferring（转学）to another college, which you'll definitely do your research on to not have the same thing happen again.5Now that you have all this new found knowledge on how to choose a college, I hope you are ready to start the process! Good luck!A. No worries, I am here to help you through the process.B. There's no excuse for not visiting the colleges in your local area.C. Other things to consider when choosing a college are as follows.D. You can register for its online college fair at .E. These are all things to take into consideration when choosing a college.F. But note that changing majors can affect how long it will take you to graduate.G. So you might as well get all the research done now, and save yourself both time and money.三、完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分）5、【来源】 2019年浙江杭州高三下学期高考模拟第36~55题30分Last week 26-year-old Zion took a seat and put his food on a table at a McDonald's.

2019年浙江高三下学期高考模拟英语试卷(浙江省名校新高考联盟（Z20）第三次联考)-学生用卷一、阅读理解（本大题共10小题，每小题2.5分，共25分）1、【来源】 2019年浙江高三下学期高考模拟（A篇）第21~24题10分Several years ago, my mother spent about two weeks in a Montreal hospital following an operation. She was well on the road to recovery and she was wholly determined to return home as soon as possible—then something changed. What followed was as confusing to me as it was to her. She forgot what day it was or who had just visited her. She lost her appetite and her motivation to do the exercises that were helping her heal.I turned to doctors in search of answers, but no one could explain these changes. It wasn't until I came across Sydney Loney's essay "State of Confusion" that I finally found a disease that seemed to fit: hospital-acquired delirium（HAD 医院获得性精神错乱）.Every year, thousands of patients leave Canadian hospitals with HAD. The causes of the condition aren't fully understood but are believed to be partly because of poor nutrition, disturbed sleep and the use of some devices which can cause injury. It can happen to anyone, anywhere. There's the 87-year- old woman who broke her hip and then forgot why she was in the hospital; another elderly woman who started seeing waterfalls coming from the ceiling after being admitted.HAD was first identified in the 1960s, but symptoms in today's patients are still mistaken for everyday signs of aging. HAD may look like dementia（痴呆）, but it is a serious confused state, while dementia is a condition characterized by memory loss. Most importantly, HAD is usually caused by something related to the outside of one's body—which means it could, in theory, be prevented.…I hope my mother's story provides guidance for readers who have experienced similar situations, and that its knowledge helps protect patients during their hospital stays.(1) When did the author know what disease her mother got?A. After reading a relevant article.B. After consulting doctors.C. After asking other patients for advice.D. After seeking medical service.(2) The two examples in paragraph 3 are used to prove that.A. the aged are the major victims of HADB. people with HAD have different symptomsC. HAD is common among patients admitted to hospitalsD. women in hospital are more likely to suffer from HAD(3) We can know from the text that HAD is a disease.A. which first appeared in the 1960sB. whose cause is still not known for sureC. whose symptoms are the same as those of dementiaD. which has something to do with people's inner body(4) What will the author most probably discuss in the missing part following paragraph 4?A. Infection of HAD.B. Causes of HAD.C. Characteristics of HAD.D. Prevention of HAD.2、【来源】 2019年浙江高三下学期高考模拟（B篇）第25~27题7.5分In the US TV series Friends, Rachel Green is a classic example of a pushover. More often than not, she gives in to her childhood friend Monica Geller's demands on trivial（琐碎的） things such as what to eat for a lunch, even if she has her own preference.Like Rachel, some people find themselves being constantly influenced by others. There are all kinds of reasons why they would act as easy- going and flexible as Rachel does. Maybe the topic of discussion just isn't something that interests them. Take household issues for example. Most men don't get overly excited at the idea of buying new kitchenware. So it's not uncommon to hear a husband tell his wife "you can buy whatever you like"or "I don't care". Technically, he's being a pushover. But he's also being flexible, avoiding any future conflict.Have you ever been traveling with friends and disagreed with them about which scenic spots you should visit? Maybe you had your own opinions on where to go, but you just said, "Oh, I'm fine if we don't go there. It's your call." Being easy-going is certainly a virtue that helps sustain good relationships and makes you a person that others want to be around. It can make you look like a pushover to others, but if you're OK with that, then it's fine. There's nothing wrong with it.But if you hate being thought of as a pushover, then maybe it's time you should learn to say "no". No is a simple yet powerful word. You don't have to do or participate in anything that you don't want to. It won't upset the people around you half as much as you fear it will, and if it does then they will get over it in time. Taking a firm stand clearly defines your likes and dislikes, which can also be an endearing（讨人喜欢的） character trait.(1) What is a pushover likely to do when going to the cinema with a friend?A. Hesitate about which film to see.B. Choose to see the film her friend likes.C. Quarrel with her friend about what to see.D. Persuade her friend to see her favorite film.(2) What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph4refer to?A. Doing anything friends ask you to do.B. Hating being considered as a pushover.C. Saying "no" to something you don't want.D. Being easy- going to the people around you.(3) What's the author's attitude towards being a pushover?A. Neutral.B. Disapproving.C. Favorable.D. Reserved.3、【来源】 2019年浙江高三下学期高考模拟（C篇）第28~30题7.5分In 1971, an American computer scientist named Evelyn Berezin changed office life forever When she launched the first word processor（处理器）. The machine was about the size of a fridge, and so basic that it didn't even have a screen, but it allowed text to be edited and reprinted and so freed millions of secretaries and copy typists from the headache problem of having to retype entire documents due to small errors. They were delighted by the new ease with which they could do their jobs; and soon, the word processor was widely used in offices. Berezin was astonished by this development, which she admitted she had not foreseen.Born in 1925, the daughter of immigrant parents from Russia, Evelyn Berezin grew up in the Bronx. She excelled at school, and studied physics at New York University. In 1951, she joined the Electronic Computer Corporation, becoming the only woman in its team of engineers. Later, she designed computers that did office accounts. In the late 1960s, she began to work on the word processor. By then, IBM had launched a machine that used a magnetic（有磁性的） tape drive to record key strokes（击打键盘）, but Berezin's was more advanced since it used semiconductor（半导体） chips. Following the launch of what she called the Data Secretary, orders flooded in and her company, Redactron, grew from having nine employees to 500. Later models had monitors and larger memories. But other tech firms were coming up fast behind, and in the 1980s, the likes of IBM and Wang took off in the market. By that time, she had sold Redactron to the Burroughs Corporation.Sadly, Evelyn Berezin passed away on December 8th, 2018. While her role in the digital revolution has not been much recognized, the Data Secretary is on display at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.(1) What do we know about Berezin's word processor when first launched?A. It freed secretaries from the work of typing documents.B. Its success was within Berezin's expectation.C. It already had monitors and large memories.D. It was technically superior to the one launched by IBM.(2) What does the display of the Data Secretary at the museum show?A. Its unique design and appearance.B. Its wide application in modern offices.C. Its important role in computer history.D. Its strong impact on the future development of computer.(3) What's the best title for the text?A. A Female Computer Pioneer.B. The Data Secretary.C. Innovation in Computer Science.D. Revolution in Word Processor.二、七选五（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）31~35题10分However young or old you are, writing can be so rewarding. For some writers, it's a fun hobby and a creative task; for others, it's a dream career. When you're just getting started, you might feel excited but also a little unconfident.1Try lots of different types of writing. As a beginner, you're in a great position to try out lots of different types of writing, without needing to commit to one in particular: no one is demanding your next book.2You might surprise yourself with what you enjoy.3If you've never written much before, launching straight into a novel probably won't work. Perhaps you'll run out of steam within a few chapters. It's better to develop your skills on something smaller first. Think about short stories if you're a fiction- writer, or short articles or blog posts if you're a non- fiction writer.Write regularly so you don't lose motivation. Some writers think you should write every day. Personally, I don't think that's very good advice. Maybe your weekdays are very busy, but your weekends are clear.4So it's advisable to set a writing schedule that suits you and your life, but do make sure you're allowing yourself time to write on a regular basis.Use clear, straightforward words. As a writer, it's normally best to keep things simple. You should use the word that best fits what you mean. Sometimes a precise, technical word is the best choice, even if it isn't the simplest, but in general, keep George Orwell's advice in mind： "5" and "Never use a foreign phrase or a scientific word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent （对应词）. "A. Always use the simplest word.B. So have a go at a wide range of styles.C. Or perhaps it's the other way round.D. You'd better read various kinds of writing first.E. Start with small projects not book-length works.F. Never use a long word where a short one will do.G.

For Rich Carryer and Michelle Cefola, two 34-year old twins from Pittsburgh, PA, this was the day when months of hard work and efforts would pay off. Just a short time ago, they were heading down the same road as their father, who had his first bypass surgery（心脏搭桥手术）at age 38. Regular workouts and a sensible diet just weren't part of their lives, Michelle, however, started a regular fitness program, and soon began to run. The going was slow at first, but soon Michelle was averaging 30-40 miles a week. With this new lifestyle Michelle lost over90pounds in 18 months.Rich was inspired by Michelle's success and also began a transformation. Once again, the running came slow and short in the beginning, but soon Rich was also running 30-40 miles a week. With all the running that the two were doing, and with all the hard work they already completed, they decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to run a marathon together as the perfect end to months of hard work.With sponsorship from Rich's employer, an American supermarket chain, Giant Eagle, they started a very strict 18-week marathon training program, which pushed them to their limits. Their weekly running mile age increased to 60 miles some weeks, and included several long runs—two of which were 20 miles long. The Columbus media reported their story; they were interviewed and appeared in "RUNOHIO".And so, on Oct. 21st, Rich and Michelle reached a key moment in their lives.

When buildings fall down, search and rescue dogs help find trapped people. Dogs' amazing nose can pick up the smell of survivors. Now scientists have developed an electronic tool that does the same thing. It's taking smell detection （探测） to a whole new level.The new invention is a sort of electronic nose, which can detect extremely low levels of many compounds （化合物） from people's skin. This isn't the first time engineers have developed such an object. Earlier models, however, have been TAL#NBSP bulky and expensive. They could not detect low levels of target compounds either. The new one is inexpensive and small enough to fit inside handheld equipment.The electronic nose can detect extremely slight smell of more than one compound at the same time. "Being able to do this, in such a small object, is the significant discovery, " says Sotiris E. Pratsinis, Professor of Process Engineering & Materials Science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. His team tested it in special spaces. They were like the small spaces where people might be trapped. Chemicals given off by the volunteers built up inside. The electronic equipment detected those compounds at unbelievable low levels.The results were good news for the research team. But they may be not for our four-legged friends, who could soon he out of a job. "Ideally, this technology could replace search and rescue dogs, " Pratsinis says.Stephen Taylor, an electrical engineer, agreed that the new technology has some benefits over dogs. Still, he thinks it may be too soon to have our trusts friends retire. He suspects, "I foresee that such an object could add to the fine work done by the dogs." Taylor also points out some potential limitations of the new invention. "E-notes are useful.

Mediators are advised to listen attentively, avoid favoring the ideas of one party, and make both sides feel at ease. Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt a hostile（敌对的）attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.Why would adding more negativity（消极性）to an already hostile situation prove beneficial? Consider how parents typically react when they can't get their children to stop quarreling: "I don't care who started it-both of you, go to your rooms!" At first sight, a calm mediator seems likely to be more effective. But as anyone with brothers or sisters knows, parents' seemingly unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect. Children who moments before were troubling each other suddenly become more reasonable due to their unkind parents.In our research, we created situations in which pairs of negotiators were part of a heated conflict. In some cases, the mediator had a "nice" approach-calm and polite. In others, he was hostile-aggressive and somewhat rude. Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.The main result of the test is not that hostility pays off. In feet, recent research has documented the social costs of negative behavior. For example, being the target of rude behavior reduces people's performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.(1) What can we learn about parents' settlement of conflicts in paragraph 2?A. It's calming and wise.B. It's arbitrary but effective.C. It's commonly adopted.D. It harms family relationship.(2) How does the author support his viewpoints?A. By giving examples and experimenting.B. By analyzing causes and effects.C. By presenting facts.D. By making comparison.(3) Which best describes the author's attitude in the text?A. Concerned.B.

ADear Mom,I haven’t written before for quite a while because I have got no energy. I now get around my room and this floor of the hospital with a walking stick but I can go only a little bit at a time because I’m awfully weak yet. My right leg was taken out of the cast (石膏) several days ago and it’s still as stiff as a board and awfully sore from so much carving around the knee joint. But the surgeon says that eventually it will be all right. I’ve included a picture of me in bed. It looks like my left leg is a stump (残肢), but it really isn’t. Just bent so it looks that way...This war makes us a bit less fools than we were. There isn’t going to be any such thing as “foreigners” for me after the war is won. I’ve gotten Italian pretty well. I’ve picked up quite a lot of Polish and my French is improving. You want to be prepared for a lot of visitors after the war now because I’ve a lot of pals coming to see me in Chicago. I don’t know when I’ll be back. I can’t get in the army and they won’t take me with two shaky legs in the draft (征兵) if I go home.So I might as well stay over here and avoid the awkwardness for a while.Also Ma, I’m in love again. Now don’t start worrying about me getting married for I’m not. I’m not even going to get engaged. So don’t write any “God Bless U, My Children”: Not for about 10 years. You’re a dear old kid, and still my best girl. God bless you and write me often... I love you.Ernie21. By mentioning that his right leg would be all right, the writer intends to ___________.A. show the cruelty of the warB. put his mom’s mind at easeC. persuade his girlfriend to marry himD. get his mom’s permission to join the army22. We can learn from the letter that ___________.A. Ernie is able to speak four foreign languagesB. Ernie hardly made any friends before the warC. Ernie hopes to keep in touch with his motherD. Ernie is engaged but hasn’t had the plan for marriage23. What emotion is mainly conveyed in the letter?A. Love for Mom.B. Fear about pain.C. Gratitude for doctors.D. Doubt about friendship.BWhen I heard the piano, I walked to Mrs. Windsor's house and waited outside as I always did. Thatmeant she was working with another student, and I was not supposed to bother them by ringing the bell. Istood against thewall and daydreamed what I' d rather be doing. "Almost anything", I sighed dejectedly.I had been tutored enough to read, understand, and even write some musical compositions, but I justdidn't have a gift for it. It didn’t come to me naturally. I thought back to happier times when I waswriting stories and acting them out with my friends, cutting up old clothes to make dresses that performerswear in plays, and building scenery out of old things we found. But Mrs. Windsor had offered to give methe lessons for free, so I felt my duty to try.The door opened and Wendy Barton came out. I walked in, sat down on the piano bench and began to sort through my sheet music."Hello," I heard a voice behind me say softly, I turned around to see a little girl standing behindme, eating an apple. But before I could make any response, Mrs. Windsor walked into the room in herusual urgent manner and announced,"Jennifer, this is my niece, Pasha. Pasha, this is Jennifer. Pashawill be giving you your lesson today. I'm up to my ears in something else!" she then exited to thekitchen.Pasha set her apple down on the side table and slid beside me on the piano bench."What piece do you like best?"she asked."What do you mean?" I asked. "They're all the same to me. I don't know."You mean you don't have a favorite?"" No, not really. "Pasha looked at me, rather puzzled, then opened my sheet music to the beginning page and asked meto play. I arranged my fingers on the keys and studied the notes on the page for a moment.Then I frownedand concentrated to make the notes on the page match the finger movements, I have to admit I was a rathermechanical pianist.After about a page or two, Pasha gently put her hand on top of mine as if to calm my fingers. Therewas a long pause. "What are you hearing in the music?" I looked at her rather strangely and admitted I didn’t know what she meant."Like a story. What story is being playing out within the music?""I guess I’ve never thought about it before. I don' t know. ""Here, let me try and you listen," Pasha advised.She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, letting her fingers dance lightly over the keys. Then, shebegan to play. "See, it begins here beside some kind of river. Hear the water flowing beside you?"Her fingers rose and fell gently on the keys. "Now the princess ap pears and she’s picking flowers fromthe water’s edge. "A carefree, happy piece of music filled the air in time to Pasha' s dancing fingers. "Oh, but she slips!" The music changed. "And our princess is being carried off bythe fast - flowing stream. Quickly, the princess' s horse sees her plight (因境) ," Pasha continued, and races to the river's edge where he swims out to let her catch hold of him. They make it to the bank and she hugs her faithfulhorse and swears she will never again wear princess skirts that weigh her down. She will only wear jeansand T - shirt from now on. " Pasha finished with a big smile and then looked at me."Aren't you the girl who tells the stories?" she asked."I guess. I do tell a lot of stories. ""Oh, yes! All the kids talk about them. I’ve heard about you. Well, all you have to do is learn tohear the stories in the music. That's all there is to it. ""I’ve never thought it that way. "" Let's try another one, shall we?" Pasha smiled and together we played that afternoon, finding thestories in the music and learning that sometimes it takes a friend to pull you out of the river onto dry landagain.24. Jennifer got lost in thought when she_______.A. played the piano with Pasha for the first timeB. listened to Pasha tell her story about the princessC. remembered happier times of writing stories and acting them outD. discovered that Mrs. Windsor's niece would be giving the piano lesson25. Which of the following can best describe Pasha?A. CreativeB.NaughtyC.HumorousD.Brave26. Which of the following is the hest title for the text?A. Never Give upB.A Piano LessonC. Why I Hated Playing the PianoD.A Friend for Ever27. This text would be probably found in_________.A.a collection of stories about friendship and learningB.a book of daily records about famous young musiciansC.a magazine series about the challenges of overcoming fearsD.a series of newspaper articles about musical instrumentsCWhen Apple cut its expectation benefit for the last quarter of 2018 because of slow sales of iPhones, markets were shocked. The company’s share price, which had been sliding for months, fell by a further 10% on January 3rd, the day after the news came out. Apple’s suppliers’ shares were also hit. But Apple’s pain is humans’ gain. The fact that these magical devices are now so popular is something to be celebrated.Nearly 4bn of the 5.5bn adults on the planet now have one smartphone. They connect billions of people to the internet’s huge amount of information and service s. Phones make markets more efficient and inspire growth. Yes, they can be used for wasting time and spreading disinformation. But the good far outweighs the bad. They might be the most effective tool of development in existence.Actually this slowdown is the result of market saturation (饱和). After a decade of rapid taking-in, there is much less opportunity to sell handsets to first-time buyers as so few of them are left. And replacement cycles are becoming longer as new models offer only insignificant improvements. For all but the craziest fans, the slowing pace of upgrades comes as a welcome relief.Does that mean innovation (创新) is slowing? No. The latest phones contain amazingly clever technology such as 3D face-scanners and cameras assisted by artificial intelligence. Moreover, smartphones also provide a foundation for extra innovations, like mobile payments and video streaming, and for future ones, such as controlling “smart” home equipment or robotaxis.As computers become smaller, still more person al and closer to people’s bodies, many scientists believe that wearable devices will be the next big thing. Even so, finding another product with the range of the smartphone is a tall order. The recent slowing of smartphone sales is bad news for the industry, obviously. But for the rest of humans it is a welcome sign that a transformative technology has become almost universal.28. The writer considers the slowdown of smartphone sales good news because ___________.A. it can make market more efficientB. i t slows crazy fans’ pace of upgradesC. it means less disinformation will spreadD. it indicates the popularity of smartphones29. We can infer from the text that ___________.A. wearable devices will take the place of smartphones very soonB. in the future people might take a smartphone-controlled robotaxiC. Apple’s suppliers’ shares hit a record high after the news came outD. Apple’s share prices are likely to go on sliding in the next decade30. What is the best title for the text?A. A Brand New Age for HumansB. Smartphone, a Good Tool or a Bad Tool?C. New Technology in SmartphonesD. Bad News for Apple, Good News for Humans第二节（共5小题：每小题2分計满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空自处的最佳选项。
