北京市东城区2018届高三4月第一次模拟考试试题One possible version:Last winter, we carried out an activity themed “Helping the Children in the Hope Primary School in Tibet”. In the class meeting, we watched CCTV news and learned about what the life of the children there was like and all of us were shocked. So we decided to do our bit. We put up some posters on the school notice board and gave out the handouts to the schoolmates. The next day, many students took part in the donation on the playground. Some donated their pocket money and some brought their new clothes and quilts. After that, we went to the post office to mail the donations to Tibet. We are more than glad to have such kind of activities, for we not only set up the bridge of friendship with the children in Tibet but also show our love to the children there.第二节开放作文（15分）请根据下面提示，写一篇短文。

One【2018届北京市东城区高三英语一模试题】第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，共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。
DThe cruise（邮轮）tourism is the fastest growing industry in the travel industry. With rapid growth in the number of passengers, the number of cruise ships at sea, and the increased variety of destinations, the fast growth in the industry follows with increasing influences on the environment.Like many travel industries, the negative influences on the environment seem to outweigh the positive ones. Even though the cruise industry is relatively small compared to the airline industry, cruise ships and their passengers generate more waste and pollutant emissions（排放物）while travelling and docked in port. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, a one-week voyage generates more than 50 tons of garbage, and during that same week 3.78 million litres of waste water is produced. That is water which is harmful to the ocean life and cannot be poured back into the ocean without being treated. These numbers are multiplied by more than 200 cruise ships sailing the world 365 days a year.Due to pollution, coral reefs（珊瑚礁）are taking a significant damage. There are 109 countries with coral reefs. In 90 of them, reefs are being damaged by cruise ships. It is said 70% of cruise destinations are in the spots with the existence of a wide variety of sea plants and animal species.However, it is not the amount of pollution generated by cruise ships that is most concerned,but rather, the way cruise ships deal with their waste. The way cruise ships get rid of waste is highly unregulated. Waste can be poured a few short miles off shore, which is later brought backto shore due to ocean currents. In most cases, there was no monitoring or administration from local authorities if cruise ships violated the pollution standards. The cruise industry continues to promote itself as environmentally friendly; the truth is, there are many examples of cruise ships breaking the law.Processing waste on board is not impossible for cruise industries. Since the increased harmful effects on the environment have come to light, some cruise industries have done their part and astechnology increases, their ability to become more eco-friendly has become the most important.Holland American Line has invested $1.5 million into a program called Seawater Scrubber Pilot. This program looks for opportunities to reduce engine emission on its ships. The Sea Water Scrubber system uses the natural chemistry of seawater to remove all harmful materials in the seawater before it is poured overboard. Even though it is only a small step, it makes a big difference.The environmental impact of the cruise industry on the destination has negative effects. However, with effort made, there is still hope that these effects can be limited, or as we wish, reduced.47. What adds to cruise ships’ pollution?A. Lack of proper regulations.B. Growing size of cruise ships.C. Service system on cruise ships.D. Useless water-treating program.48. Why did the author mention Holland American Line?A. To stress environmental protection matters.B. To evaluate the effects of natural chemistry.C. To introduce the Sea Water Scrubber system.D. To prove some anti-pollution measure works.49. What is the passage mainly about?A. Influences of cruise tourism.B. Problems in tourist industry.C. Consequence of ocean pollution.D. Administration of cruise emissions.50. How is the passage developed?A. By analyzing cause and effect.B. By discussing problems and solutions.C. By comparing benefits and disadvantages.D. By presenting similarities and differences.Keys: 47-50 ADABTwo【2018届北京市东城区高三英语二模试题】第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，共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。

My brother Gene was four years older than me. By the time I turned four, I was upset that he could read but I couldn’t. I burned with 16 to read a book like my brother. I begged: “Teach me to read, Mom! Please, please?!”Finally, Mom set aside time after lunch 17 reading lessons, and soon after my fifth birthday, I was reading.I longed for my father, who was a great storyteller, to read me the books that I couldn’t yet read on my own. But my father worked three jobs to feed the family. He didn’t have the time or 18 in the evening to read to me. 19 , every Sunday morning, my brother and I lay next to him in bed, waiting for him to tell stories about his 20 . I can still hear my father’s voice 21 the cold winters on the family farm in Poland. His family didn’t have enough money to burn wood in the fireplace all night. He told us that he always volunteered to help with 22 . I can smell the soup made by my grandma and 23 my father cutting onions, carrots and tomatoes for salad, and when no one was looking, putting a piece into his mouth. “I was always 24 ,”he explained. Hearing my father’s stories 25 me closer to the books and the stories they held.One Saturday afternoon when I was seven, we walked two blocks to the small 26 in our neighborhood, and my dad filled out forms for a card. That Saturday 27 my life: I met Mrs. Schwartz, the librarian, and my dad said, “You’re 28 enough to walk to the library yourself.”And so I did—almost every afternoon.In my mind, Mrs. Schwartz was “the keeper of books and the guardian of stories.” Some days she read aloud to a small group of us 29 . Most of time, Mrs. Schwartz let me 30 myself with books I pulled from the shelves and look through them to see which ones I’d 31 out. I remember that sometimes she’d 32 a book and tell me a part of the story. But she always let me choose. Books became my 33 who were my comfort when I felt lonely.Yes, reading changed me. It gave me the 34 to study hard so I could become a teacher, and share my 35 of reading with my students. And inside my head, I can still hear the voices of my mother, father, and Mrs. Schwartz, which are with me every time I open the first page of a new book. 42816.
