(建议用时：50分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·河南适应性测试)Every year between May and September, all54 employees of Basecamp, a Chicago­based web application company,have a short work week: just four days—a total of 32 hours. Also, theyusually work five days a week for the rest of the year.“That’s plenty of time to get great work done. This is all we expectand all we want from people，”says Jason Fried, a co­founder.“Working 50-，60­，or 70­plus hours is unnecessary. In fact, if you have to work 50­，60­，or 70­plus hours a week, there’s a management problem.”The company’s summer workload must fit reduced hours, Mr.Fried insists, otherwise the benefits of a shorter week—to recover from work, enjoy time with family and pursue(追求) outside interests—would be undone.His new research finds that it is not just long hours that are harmful to employees’physical and mental health. It is also the intensity(强度) of work. Moreover, it suggests that intense work harms career prospects. That is because unbearable hours and intensity are in the opposite direction, reducing the quality of the work.The research concludes that the level of intensity we apply to the work we do is generally “a stronger predictor of unfavorable outcomes than overtime work”．The research compared people of similar jobs and education levels, and found they were more likely to suffer poorer happiness and worse career prospects, including satisfaction, security and promotion, when they worked at an intense level for long periods.【解题导语】本文以一家总部位于芝加哥的网络应用公司Basecamp的54名员工将近半年时间每周只工作4天，共32小时的情况为例说明了较短的工作周有益于人们的身心健康，并以一项研究来证明。

（新课标）2021-2021学年高中英语 Unit3 Life in the future测试题Class: Name: Marks: 总分值（120）第一部份阅读明白得（共两节，总分值40分）第一节（共15小题；每题2分，总分值30分）AMy favorite book that I’ve read is the well-known novel Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. The novel is about a thirteen-year-old boy named Brian Robeson. He goes to meet his father in Canada, but when he’s in the plane heading for his father, something goes terribly wrong — the pilot of the plane gets a sudden heart attack. Brian is stranded (处于窘境) in the Canadian wilderness after the plane crashes, with only a hatchet (手斧) and the clothes on his back.As the plane goes down in the story, the risks ri se for Brian. That’s one reason why this book is so great. Gary Paulsen expl ains Brian’s troubles in simple words, but he also uses lots of those words to describe Brian’s troubles as well.One other reason is that it sparks (激发) your mind into reading or makes you start reading Gary Paulsen’s books. In this novel, the question is, “How will the main character survive?” So it’s obvious that this book is an adventure and a “man against nature” novel. As you have probably guessed, Brian suffers from hunger and searches for food and shelter. When Brian finds any kind of food, he feels as if he just found money in the street.The third reason why this book is so well thought of is the creativity Gary has put into Brian. Brian uses a lot of things in his surroundings in every way: a common stick can be a spear (矛) or an arrow.In a word, when you start this book, you won’t stop reading it until Brian is rescued. I feel that Gary Paulsen gave Brian Robeson life, and that’s what made Hatchet a great book.1. What challenge does Brian have to face?A. He can hardly keep himself warm.B. He is too young to protect himself.C. It’s very difficult to find food.D. He has no tools with him.2. What’s probably the ending of the story?A. The boy is found and saved.B. The boy fails to defeat difficulties.C. The boy manages to fly to his father.D. The boy lives in the wilderness forever.3. We can learn from the text that .A. the novel mainly tells us how to survive in the wildB. hatchet is the only thing that the pilot leaves to BrianC. Gary Paulsen saved Brian Robeson’s lifeD. the author thinks highly of the novelBThe most popular fashion trend (趋势) for 2012 is a modern reinvention of revival (从头流行) styles, particularly styles from the 1960s. This is mostly a result of recent TV shows. Many of the styles on sale look attractive on teenage girls.● Cat eye sunglassesCat eye sunglasses are one of the most fashionable sunglasses shapes for 2021. Cat eye sunglasses are those shaped wider along the top lenses (镜片) and narrower at the bottom. They will immediately make you look up to date with the 1960s revival.● Curve hugging dressesWhen you are young, your body is often in the best shape of your life. So it’s a great time to show it off. Stars like the Kardashian sisters have been making curve hugging dresses really popular. They may come in long sleeve styles if where you live is a little cool in autumn.● Ballet flat shoesBallet flat shoes are a great day-to-day style because they are always very comfortable to walk in. This season many printed styles are appearing in stores. Flower prints are some of the most popular looks.● Color block T-shirtsColor blocking was a trend that first appeared during the 1960s. It is characterized by the use of different solid colors in the one design broken up by lines. During the 1960s, color block dresses were particularly popular. A more modern style is the color block T-shirt. You will find styles which feature one color across the shoulders, another across the chest and yet another on the lower part of the T-shirt.4. The curve hugging dresses can make teenage girls .A. feel a little cold in autumnB. show off the shape of their bodyC. hide their body disadvantagesD. laugh at the Kardashian sisters’ similar dresses5. Which can best describe this year’s ballet flat shoes?A. They are of the printed style.B. They are seldom seen in shops.C. They are uncomfortable but cheap.D. There is nothing special with them.6. It can be inferred that this year’s fashion theme is based on .A. new materialsB. the stars’ lifestyleC. teens’ imagina tionD. elements in the 1960s7. In which part of a newspaper can we read the text?A. Art.B. News.C. Fashion.D. Education.CDroughts (干旱) are a common feature of the weather in the UK, with one around every 5 to 10 years on average. After 18 months since the drought began to hit the UK, most of the east and south-east of England is affected by drought. Luckily, a new water plant in Beckton, East London, is helping to ease the drought by turning seawater into drinking water.The £270-million plant uses a process (进程) called desalination, through which salt and other minerals are taken out of seawater. The plant takes seawater from the Thames Estuary when the sea is at low tide, filters (过滤) it and then pumps it through a membrane (薄膜) with lots of little holes in it. The process makes the water so clean that essential minerals have to be put back into it. Around 150 million liters of water will be produced in this way each day, supplying 1.4 million people with water.With summer drawing near, the project has been developed to help the widespread drought across the UK. Seven water companies have announced the limited use of water, and hosepipe (水龙带) bans are likely to be announced next month. The ban could affect one in three homes and people caught breaking the rules could face a fine of up to £1,000.As the desalination process is expensive to run and uses a lot of energy, it will only be used in times of drought. Martin Baggs, chief executive of Thames Water, said that more money is needed to help build reservoirs (水库) and develop new technology. He added, “People must use less water during extreme conditions.”8. The process of desalination refers to the process of .A. removing salt from seawaterB. adding minerals into seawaterC. taking water from the seaD. supplying people with water9. It is implied in the text that in summer, .A. the drought in the UK will be less severeB. more methods will be used to ease droughtsC. more drinking water will be accessible in the UKD. the UK will be threatened by more serious droughts10. The process of desalination might not be widely used mainly because .A. new technology can be developedB. it costs too much money and energyC. it can’t produce enough drinking waterD. the water made this way isn’t healthy11. What is the text mainly about?A. Droughts have been common in the history of the UK.B. The technology of taking salt out of seawater is being tested.C. Seawater is being turned into drinking water in the UK.D. Different methods are used to ease the droughts in the UK.DNews 1December 18, 2020 —This year shows strong growth for wind power when the total global installed capacity (能量) added a record 62,000 MW, making the total capacity more than 680,000 MW. Wind power is by far the renewable (能再生的) source with the largest growth in worldwide capacity during the last decade. However, the US is quite slow using wind power compared to many European countries. China is the country with the strongest growth in the total capacity, adding another 20% with 154,000 MW installed.News 2March 13, 2025 — New efforts have been made to get in touch with the Voyager probes (探测器)but to no avail and today it is officially announced that we have lost touch with them forever. The last signal from Voyager 1 was received in November 2020 and from Voyager 2 in March 2021. Voyager 1 was launched into space with the target (目标) to explore Jupiter and Saturn and their moons (卫星) and rings.News 3December 15, 2030 — What will the most popular Christmas present be this year? Affected by the launch of the first manned mission to Mars next month, you will most likely get a gift card for a space trip.

More low-cost space lines have entered the market and you can now find space flights for as low as $3,495.12. We can learn from News 1 that .A. wind power develops fast in China in 2020B. the US has the strongest growth in wind power in 2020C.

No notebooks, no textbooks, no test papers. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment.A paperless classroom is what more and more schools are trying to realize. Students don’t do any handwriting in this class. Instead, they use hand-sized, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student’s personal computer.Having computers also means that students can use the Web. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying, from maths to social science.High school teacher Judy Herrel in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web.“Using a book that’s three or four years old is impossible,”she said.A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper each week to each student. “Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers,”she said.But, with all this technology, there’s always the risk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problem, paper textbooks are still widely available （可得到的）for these hi-tech students.1. The underlined word “critical”in the first paragraph probably has the same meaning as “__________”.A. worryingB. dangerous[来源:学#科#网Z#X#X#K]C. happyD. important2. In a paperless classroom, what is a must?A. A pen.B. A computer.C. Information.D. A pencil.3. According to Judy Herrel, __________.A. the Web can take the students everywhereB. the Web can take the place of teachersC. the Web is a better tool for informationD. the Web is for downloading information4. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of apaperless classroom?A. Students won’t have trouble with their pens.B. Computers may break down sometimes.C. Students can get information from the Internet.D. A lot of money and trees will be saved.5. Which of the following is NOT supported by the writer’s opinion?A. The paperless classroom will be good for trees.B. There are s ome differences between thepaperless studies and those in the usual way.C. Paper textbooks are no longer useful.D.

So I continued writing poetry at home.By chance, I 48 some prizes and awards for literature. A young woman from a 49 company came to the college one day. She told me that I won a national poetry award. I 50 at her in astonishment(吃惊) and disbelief. She wanted to make a short 51 about me, to which I said, “ No, I couldn’t do that.” Not that I had any real 52 . I was just frightened. In the end she 53 me that I should do it the following day.So I did. They made a short film of me reading one of my 54 and I became 55 interested in literature than ever. I 56 what I should do after this, and decided some weeks later that I could not 57 myself spending the rest of my days dealing with machines. So one evening, I hesitatingly (犹豫地) told my parents that I wanted to _58 to school. They were greatly surprised and a little afraid, but they did not try to persuade me not to. They wanted to know if I was 59 , and if I knew what it meant and 60 I realized that if I gave up my job training, it would be very difficult to get a good job.

That person never failed to stay16 : The goal was always in sight, and the wish to17 that goal never wavered（动摇）.This story is an example of this:When she looked 18 , Florence Chadwick saw nothing but a solid wall of fog. Her body felt19 . She had been swimming for nearly 16 hours.20 she was the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. Now, at the age of 34, her 21 was to become the first woman to swim the Catalina Channel.That morning the sea was icy cold and the fog was so heavy that she could 22 see her support boats. She struggled on, 23 the frigid（寒冷的）grip of the sea, hour after hour.Alongside Florence in a boat, her father offered 24 . He told her it wasn’t much farther. 25 all she could see was fog. He urged her not to 26 . She never had…until then—with only a half mile to 27 , she asked to be pulled out.Still warming up her chilled body several hours later, she told a reporter,“Look, I’m not 28 myself, but if I could have seen 29 I might have succeeded.”It was not the extreme 30 or cold that defeated her. It was the fog. She was unable to see her goal.Two months later, she tried again. This time, 31 the same dense fog, Florence Chadwick swam with her goal clearly pictured in her mind. She knew that 32 behind the fog was land, and this time she 33 it！Let this 34 forever be kept in your mind.35 take your eyes off your goal, even when you cannot see it.16.

Yes，for fear of flames and hacking.Back in 2008，Garriott paid large amounts of cash to be slingshoted into space by shuttle and stay at hotel International Space Station for a truly “out of this world experience”. And where better to kick back at zero gravity and play some MMORPGs（大型多人在线角色扮演游试），right？Wrong. Because despite the fact that the ISS does have an Internet connection, NASA and their Russian counterparts are apparently extremely concerned that may spawn（招致） a serious space hacking attempt, one they don’t feel able to cope with. Garriott told gaming site Kotaku “they were so worried about people tunneling backwards to the ISS and wreaking havoc that it became a non-starter”. Yes，beware the MMORPG playing teen，for they are more dangerous than alien life forms creeping about your space ship and killing you in the dark. As if that wasn’t bad enough，Garriott also wasn’t allowed to kill the gameless hours in orbit by listening to his iPod either，as apparently the lithium battery was considered a fire danger. “They make you take the battery out and all kinds of crap. It’s a pain in the ass，”he said. “You had to have the lithium battery pulled out，because，hypothetically，it’s a fire danger—it’s not really；it’s actually much worse after you crack the whole thing open, rip the battery out and put wires into it—but anyway, it costs you so much money to even take the iPod，so it justwasn’t worth it.”With no music to float about to, and no gaming to pass the time，it sounds rather like the whole trip wasn’t really worth it to be honest. But what else do rich folks have to waste their money on these days？36. The best title for the passage can be __________.A. Go sightseeing in spaceB. No gaming or iPods allowed in spaceC. The world’s first space touristD. Flames and hacking in space37. According to the passage, we can see the following are right EXCEPT that __________.A. back in 2008, Garriott paid large amounts ofcash to be slingshoted into space by shuttleB. Garriott stayed at hotel International SpaceStation for a truly “out of this world experience”C. in space you kick back at zero gravi tyD. Garriott played some MMORPGs in space38. Richard Garriott is __________.A. an astronautB. a scientistC. a clothing designerD. a game designerBDo you want to live another 100 years or more? Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span.“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality（永生）,”said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. “I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate（保守的估计）.”At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nano technology（纳米技术）make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past.“There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,”he said. “Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less diseases, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. “It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know；could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?”said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre. “At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”39. By saying “…we are knocking at the do or ofimmortality”, Michael Zey means __________.A. they believe that there is no limit oflivingB. they are sure to find the truth about long livingC. they have got some ideas about livingforeverD. they are able to make people live past thepresent life span40. Donald Louria’s attitude towards long living is that__________.A. people can live from 120 to 180 yearsB. it is still doubtful how long humans can liveC. the human body is designed to last past about120 yearsD. it is possible for humans to live longer in thefuture41. The underlined word “it” (Paragraph 4) refers to __________.A. a great pushB. the idea of living beyond the present life spanC. the idea of living from 200 to 300 yearsD. the conservative estimate42. What would be the best title for this text?A. Living Longer or NotB. Science, Technology and Long LivingC. No Limit for Human LifeD. Healthy Lifestyle and Long LivingCpassage?A. It is the jet stream that affects how fastairplanes fly.B. Planes go more slowly when they are movingwith the wind.C. It takes more time to fly from NY to Londonthan from London to NY.D. The jet stream always blows from the east tothe west across the Atlantic.44.

It can be inferred that without gravity _________.A. buildings and other structures would float awayB. trees and buildings would not so easily fly offC. something around your head would not floatawayD. everything outside buildings would fly off intospace46. Where can we most probably read this text?A. In a research paper.B. In a short story.C. In a travel magazine.D. In a student's book.DWith the Tesla Roadster and other plug-in electric vehicles hitting the road，demand is growing for accessible refueling points to recharge them. Carbon Day Automotive，a Chicago-based company，has now demonstrated a solar-powered recharging point，known as the Solar Plug-in Station，which lets motorists easily charge their cars using electricity that has been produced without any environmental damage.The Solar Plug-in Station has gone on show in Chicago as part of the city’s bid to host the 2016 Olympic Games. According to Carbon Day Automotive，the solar-powered recharging station is part of the vital infrastructure required for electric vehicles in Chicago and was the focus of a recent visit by the International Olympic Committee.These solar-powered electricity points will be used daily by Chicago to fuel the city’s electric vehicles with power from the sun. By producing the electricity from pollution-free solar cells，the CO2 emissions are reduced to zero.The Solar Plug-in Stati on consists of giant solar panels that shade the tiny Charge Point Networked Charging Station. The solar panel is connected to an underground battery pack，ready for everyday refueling.“Wit hout these stations it would be like driving around traditional cars without the availability of gas stations，” says Scott Emalfarb，CEO at Carbon Day Automotive. “The day of true plug-in electric vehicles will be here sooner than most people realize and the world needs to be ready to accommodate them.”47. The plug-in electric vehicles have an advantage over traditional cars because __________.A. they are environment-friendlyB. they run fasterC. they use more fuelD. they are safe r48. From the last paragraph, we can conclude that __________.A. Scott Emalfarb is optimistic about the future ofplug-in electric vehiclesB. Scott Emalfarb thinks people still liketraditional carsC. the Solar Plug-in Station has no connectionwith electric vehiclesD. the demand of plug-in electric vehicles is onthe increase now49. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Chicago sets up its solar-powered rechargingstationB. Chicago will bid for the 2016 Olympic GamesC. Plug-in electric vehiclesD. Solar energy50.

Research underway will lead to situations where people can put themselves at events like a rock concert so that they can see, hear and even feel the event. And turn down the volume, if it´s too loud.One attendee said she was scared that the possibility could be dehumanizing, but Schmidt replied by holding up his cellphone into the air. “It has an off button and it is here on the right,” Schmidt said. “My point is that it is all about your control. If you don´t like my version of a rock concert, I´m not forcing you to go. In the future, small robots could be used so busy people can send them to events for video and voice transmissions when their presence isn´t required,” Schmidt said.Technology in the near future will redefine the re lationship among people in the world. “Smarter resourceful citizens are going to demand a better deal for their new life,” Schmidt said.1.From the passage, the new technology .A. largely depends on science fictionB. will eventually replace humans´ presenceC. amazingly improves people´s social skillsD. can unexpectedly bring new various choices2.Why did Schmidt give the example in Paragraph 4?A.

Doubtful.Ⅲ. 完形填空Recently I understood the true meaning of love.
