We were assigned different tasks—cleaning rooms, sorting books, scanning bar codes and so on. My job was to help readers locate the needed books. Their satisfied smiles when they found their books made my day.This experience makes me realize the happiness of labor and the importance of serving the community.(80)Version 2:An Unforgettable Social Practice ActivityI will never forget the social practice activity held by our class committee last summer vacation.We met at the nursing home at 8 o’clock. Upon arrival, we got down to work as arranged. Some helped with daily chores like sweeping, mopping, cleaning or making the bed, others offering to entertain the elderly by chatting or telling jokes. The big smiles of the seniors made us feel fulfilled.I am grateful for this experience, from which I realize the value and happiness of serving society. (87)第二节Version 1I dragged into the headmaster’s office the ne xt day, but this time he looked me in the eyes. “What did your d ad say?” he asked calmly. I looked at him, forcing my eyes to stay dry. “He said if I had to pay, it wouldn’t be a scholarship jacket.” Then I stood up, ready to leave when he stopped me. “Martha, wait. I have discussed with Mr. Schmidt. We’ll make an exception in your case. You’ll be the winner.” I could hardly believe my ears, but his expression told me he was serious. (87)At the end of the day, I met Mr. Schmidt, who smiled, “Congratu lations.”“Thank you, sir.” I burst out. Not knowing how to express my sincere gratitude to the righteous teacher, I bowed deeply and waved goodbye to him. On arriving home, I couldn’t wait to share the news with my dad. Patting me on the shoulder, he said determinedly “My dear little girl, you should keep this in mind. Regardless of race and background, hard work will always pay off.”(68)Version 2I dragged into the headmaster’s office the next day, but this time he look ed me in the eyes. I bit my lip, not knowing how to break the terrible decision to him. Before I chose the words, Mr. Boone said decidedly, “I have changed my mind. We think you should get the jacket. As Mr. Schmidt put it, without justice and fairness, scholarship makes no sense. Brilliant girl, your hard work pays off. You deserve it.” I could hardly believe my ears. Tears clouded my eyes. (69)At the end of the day, I met Mr. Schmidt, who smiled, “Congratulations.”His brilliant smile was like sunshine, melting all the iceberg at the bottom of my heart. Without hesitation, I threw my arms around him and gave him a big hug. He patted me on the shoulder and said gently, “Martha, keep up! Do your best!” I nodded firmly. I knew he had rooted a strong belief in my heart. I would be a person like him, upright, honest and most importantly treating people equally and fairly. (78)读后续写评分标准听力材料(Text 1)W: Hi. Do you have a large size for this blue shirt?M: I’m sorry but we’re out of the large size. But our shop on 7th street has them. If you like, I can make a call now.(Text 2)M: You’ve been quiet since we left the theater. What’s the matter? Didn’t you like the movie?W: No. I’m tired of all that bloo d and people killing each other.M: Hold on! You saw how full the theater was. People like it.(Text 3)W: Tim, I read your online article about animals. You really know a lot about them. You must read lots of books on them.M: Actually I like watching the Animal World program on TV. And I learn from it.(Text 4)W: You are watching TV! Why don’t you share some housework? It is always my turn to empty the dishwasher.M: It isn’t. I did it yesterday —and I’ve cleaned the cooker.(Text 5)W: Good evening, sir. Would you like to start off with something to drink today? We have a wide selection of soft drinks.M: Do you have mineral water as well? I have to take some medicine.第二节(Text 6)M: Ashley, is that true that you’re leaving the company soon?W: Yes, I have no choice. As you know, I’ve been here for years, but this company hasn’t promoted me for five years since I was first promoted. I’ve found a better job.M: We’ve worked together all that time. I know how you feel. The company hasn’t raised our salaries for three years, either.W: Well, once I settle in at my new job, I’ll see if I can help you get a job there as well. It would be great to work together again.(Text 7)W: I heard you were in hospital for a few da ys to have an operation. I hope everything’s OK.M: Yes, fine. I had something wrong with my stomach, but it wasn’t serious.W: It must have really hurt after the operation.M: Well, the nurse gave me plenty of painkillers, but I did feel uncomfortable. I wasn’t permitted to eat anything for 48 hours after the operation. That was the worst thing.W: I’m sure you are ready for a thick juicy steak now. Let’s eat in the restaurant in Garstang Road.M: I’m afraid I can’t. The doctor gave me a list of food I couldn’t eat, and steak is on the list!(Text 8)M: Hi, Julie. Wasn’t the indoor wildlife center wonderful? I’ve never seen such an amazing building.W: Hi Greg. Didn’t you find it tiring though, walking up so many stairs? And it was hard to find your way around. But it was an interesting start down on the basement, where it was so dark that I didn’t see the sharks at first in the water behind the glass.M: I saw them, but they looked quite scary. However, those butterflies right at the top of the building were amazing.W: Yes, they were beautiful. Did you manage to see any tree frogs? They were so cute.M: I spent ages hunting for them, but I couldn’t find a single one.W: That was a pity! By the way, I really can’t wa it to go back because there is just too much to see.M: I think we should read more about the wildlife before we think of going back there.(Text 9)M: Oh, hello. I’m Jack. This is the Law Students Association, right?W: Yes, that’s right. I’m Mary, President of the Association. Are you interested in joining?M: Maybe. What year are you in?W: The fourth year.M: I’m in the first year. I’m not sure if I’ll survive even into the second year.W: I’m sure you’ll make it just fine. It does seem a bit worrying at the beginning, but it gets easier. Trust me.M: That’s hard to imagine. So, do I have to pay to join the association?W: Well, there’s an annual membership fee of 10 pounds, or you can get four-year membership for 35 pounds.M: Mm, what activities do you have?W: We have guest speakers, talking about various topics. There’s a meeting on the first Tuesday of every month.M: That sounds great. I’d love to hear about their experience. But my timetable is so full already. I don’t think I have enough time to go to the meetings. Any other activities?W: Well, we offer some peer coaching.M: What’s that? Sounds like you’re mixing study and sport.W: Not in that way. Peer coaching is when other students help you if you’re having problems with your study. Usually, we get the senior students — the third or fourth years — to do it.M: I see.(Text 10)W: I’m Olga Victoria. Now I’m volunteering as a doctor in MSF, which is one of the world’s largest organizations that provide emergency medical relief. One of the biggest tasks I undertook this year was organizing a team to open a new hospital in a town that had no medical care for three years. The project was a success and the local people were thankful.What qualities and skills do you need to become a volunteer for MSF? You have to be able to deal with stress, and you need to be able to work independently as well as in a team. Besides medical experts, MSF needs the skills of technical staff such as building engineers and food experts. Now HIV and TB doctors are urgently needed. The work is tough and demanding but the rewards can be great. If you think you fit one of the positions, find out how to apply for it on our website .。

2021年大连市实验学校高三英语三模试卷及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AIf you are sending a text message watching TV or listening to the radio, you may stop and give this your full attention. Multitasking shrinks (使.....萎缩)the brain? research suggests.A study found that men and womenwho frequently used several types of technology at the same time had less grey matter in a key part of the brain. University of Sussex researchers said, " Using mobile phones, laptops and other media devicessimultaneouslycould be changing the structure of our brains."Worryingly, the part of the brain that shrinks is involved in processing emotion. The finding follows research which has linked multitasking with a shortened attention span, depression , anxiety and lower grades at school.The researchers began by asking 75 healthy men and women how often they divided their attention between different types of technology. This could mean sending a text message while listening to music and checking e-mail, or speaking on the phone while watching TV and surfing the Internet. The volunteers were then given brain scans which showed they had less grey matter in a region called the anterior cingu-late cortex (ACC)(前扣带皮层).Scientists have proved that brain structure can be changed on exposure to fresh environments and experience.Other studies have shown that training—such as learning to play magic tricks or taxi drivers' learning the map of London―can increase grey matter densities (密度)in certain parts.Experts have also warned of the harmful impact technology can have on our memory and attention span. The University of California team conducted a survey of more than 18,000 people aged between 18 and 99，and found 20%had problems with memory. Researchers were shocked greatly by the 14 % of 18 to 39-year-old people who also worried about their memories.Multitasking may shorten attention span, making it harder to focus and form memories, the researchers said, adding that youngsters may be particularly affected by stress.1. The underlined word " simultaneously" in Paragraph 2 means "________，"A. on one's ownB. at no timeC. at the same timeD. by accident2. All of the following are possible effects of multitasking EXCEPT________ .A. saving timeB. a shortened attention spanC. lower grades at schoolD. depression and anxiety3. Which ofthe following can be the best title of this passage?A. Media multitasking is becoming more popularB. Multitasking shrinks the brainC. Multitasking may shorten attention spanD. People are worried about their memories.BA North Atlantic right whale calf(幼崽) was discovered dead on the beach of an island off North Carolina. The male newborn was found on North Core Banks, part of the Cape Lookout National Seashore.

Scientists took DNA to determine the calf’s mother.This is the beginning of the right whale’s reproduction(繁殖) season, which begins mid-November and runs through mid-April. NOAA called this death a disastrous start to the season. Each new right whale calf brings so much hope for this badly endangered animals, and losses like this have a great impact on their recovery, NOAA said.The right whale is one of the rarest marine mammals(哺乳动物) in the world, according to NOAA. They will soon be extinct unless something is done to save it, researchers warn. This kind of whale has been experiencing an Unusual Death Event over the past three years, according to NOAA. Since 2017, at least 32 dead and 13 seriously wounded whales have been documented by the organization. “This means more than 10 percent of the remaining population,” according to NOAA.NOAA posted a piece of news on Monday, the same day they announced the calf’s death, warning boaters to be watchful as the whales are migrating(迁徙) nearly 1,000 miles along the Atlantic Coast. The organization calls for boaters to be watchful, slow down and to give these endangered whales plenty of room.

So I started to have a lot more free time,” he tells Yahoo Life. “It was really saddening, but it was also something that really surprised me, that our health care workers are facing something like that,” Nigam says. “So I wanted to see what I could do to help them because obviously, they're sacrificing so much and giving so much for all of us. ”In late March, the teen started fundraising efforts with the help of friends and family to help these health care workers receive much-needed meals.

Rising from the center of the Arctic Basin, the flag sent a clear message to the surrounding nations: Russia had just laid claim(权利) to the vast oil and gas reserves contained in this underwater area.AfterRussia, theUnited States,Norway,SwedenandFinlandare all trying to gain profit. Projections show that the area of land and sea that falls within theArctic Circleis home to an estimated 90 billion barrels of oil, an incredible 13% of Earth’s reserves. It’s also estimated to contain almost a quarter of untapped global gas resources. But long before this oil race began, how did theArcticbecome so rich in energy?“The first thing you realize is that theArctic—unlike the Antarctic—is an ocean surrounded by continents”,Alastair Fraser, a geoscientist from Imperial College London, said. Firstly, this means there’s a huge quantity of organic material available, in the form of dead sea creatures such as plankton and algae, which form the basis of what will ultimately become oil and gas. Secondly, the surrounding ring of continents means that the Arctic Basin contains a high proportion of continental crust(大陆地壳), which makes up about 50% of its oceanic area. That’s significant because continental crust typically contains deep depressions called basins, into which organic matter sinks.Here, it gets inserted in rock and preserved in anoxic(缺氧) waters, meaning they contain little oxygen. “Normally, in a shallow sea with lots of oxygen, it would not be preserved. But if the sea is deep enough, the oxygenated waters at the top will be separated from the anoxic conditions at the base,” Fraser explained. Conserved within these oxygen-free basins, the matter maintains compounds that finally make it useful as an energy source for millions of years in the future.12. Why didRussiaplant a national flag onto the Lomonosov Ridge?A. To tell surrounding countries its armed forces.B. To show its advanced technology of submarines.C. To show abundant natural resources in theArcticBasin.D. To claim its privilege to explore for oil and gas in the area.13. What’s the function of the last sentence in paragraph 2?A. Making a comparison.B. Serving as a connecting link.C. Analyzing the cause and effect.D. Drawing the conclusion of the text.14. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Oxygen only exists in the top part of the ocean.B. Organic materials mostly exist in the basins with oxygen.C. Water containing oxygen turns organic materials into oil and gas.D. Oxygen-free environment counts in the formation of the arctic’s rich energy.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. What makes theArcticattractive?B. Why do many nations focus on theArctic?C. Why is there so much oil in theArctic?D. How does theArcticBasincome into being?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground in its entirety and relocated using new technology named the “walking” machine.In the city’s latest effort to preserve historic structures, engineers used nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building. The supports act like robotic legs. They’re split into two groups which in turns rise up and down, imitating the human step. Attached sensors help control how the building moves forward.TheLagenaPrimary School, which weighs 7,600 tons, faced a new challenge — it’s T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or rectangular. Experts and technicians met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the “walking machine”.Over the course of 18 days, the building was rotated 21degrees and moved 62 meters away to its new location. The old school building is set to become a center for heritage protection and cultural protection. The project marks the first time this “walking machine” method has been used inShanghaito relocate a historical building.In recent years,China’s rapid modernization has seen many historic buildingsrazedto clear land for skyscrapers and office buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage loss as a result of destruction across the country.Shanghaihas beenChina’s most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous Bund district and 19th-century “Shikumen” houses in the repaired Xintiandi neighborhood has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a track record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, which was then considered to beShanghai’s most complex relocation project to date.4. How did the primary school get moved?A. By reducing the weight of it.B. By using movable supports.C. By dividing it into several parts.D. By using robotic legs.5. What does the underlined word “razed” probably mean in Paragraph 5?A. Replaced.B. Burnt.C. Protected.D. Destroyed.6. What can we infer about the heritage preservation inChina?A. The use of advanced technology leads to growing concern.B. Shanghai is the pioneer in preserving architectural heritage.C.A number of old buildings have been given new life.D. Many historic buildings will be relocated.7. What is the passage mainly about?A. New preservation campaigns are launched inChina.B. New technology gives new life to historic buildings.C. A building inShanghai“walks” to a new location.D. “Walking machine” makes heritage protection simpler.CParents and math teachers regularly asked by their school-aged charges whether math matters inreal life now have an answer.In a study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research this week, Harvard Kennedy School Policy Professor Joshua Goodman took a look at what happened to students whose high schools were required in the 1980s to increase the minimum level of coursework required to graduate. What he found is that the students were more likely to increase the number of math courses they took as a result of the change in standards and that translated into higher earnings down the line.Put simply: About 15 years after they graduated, the high school graduates who went to school when these changes took effect saw their average earnings increase about 10% for every extra year of math coursework. The findings may add fuel to the steady drum of education experts, policy makers and others calling for an increasedfocus on science and math education.The increase in required math courses didn’t necessarily produce rocket scientists, Goodman notes, because the extra coursework wasn’t at a particularly high level. But becoming familiar with and practicing ly basic math skills allowed high school graduates to pursue and excel at jobs that required some level of computational knowledge, he said.Goodman acknowledged that the earnings boost for the students connected with the up tick （上升）in math education may be dependent on the state of the economy. When Goodman checked in the late 1990s and early 2000s on the earnings of the students who graduated in the late 1985，he found that their earnings increased significantly if they took more math.8. What does Joshua Goodman’s study find?A. High school graduates earn more.B. High school students prefer math.C. Math matters a lot in one’s income.D. Math is a compulsory course in school.9. Why is increase in required math courses useful?A. It produced rocket scientists.B. It makes high school students smarter.C. It meets the requirements of the government.D. It enables high school graduates to get better jobs.10. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To give a warning to policy makers.B. To seek help for high school students’ problems.C. To show the great importance of learning math.D. To tell a struggling history of high school students.11. What could be the best title for the text?A. Efforts matter mostB. Math makes moneyC. Earnings of different graduatesD. Changes of high school coursesDThe herd of elephants moving north after leaving the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve in Yunnan province has drawn widespread public attention, with tens of millions of people following its movement on TV programs and social media platforms.But this is not because it’s the first time wild Asian Elephants have wandered away from their habitat and headed northward, but for only this time the herd has traveled more than 400 kilometers as far as Kunming. Photographs, videos and stories of the herd’s movement have sparked widespread discussions even overseas.However, there is a need to go behind the “cute photos” and the seemingly “fantastic” event and identify the reasons why wild elephants are leaving their habitat, and find ways to establish harmonious human-animal relationship within habitats and the surrounding forests and human settlements. It is important to scientifically mark the limits of the habitats for elephants and other animals in Xishuangbanna and elsewhere in the country for ecological reasons as well.Planting trees is a key and fundamental step toward restoration of nature. Yet long-term investment and a more scientific approach are needed to maintain the remaining forests as well as to extend the forest cover and strengthen conservation.Nevertheless, tree cover alone doesn’t mean a suitable habitat for all animals, for different species need different types of vegetation to survive and breed. The elephant herd in Yunnan is a reminder that we have to scientifically conserve the existing forests and turn them into suitable habitats for different species of animals and birds, which will ultimately benefit humans.More ambitious targets should be set to rebuild or improve the food chain, and measures taken to ensure forest resources help wildlife flourish, in order to establish a harmonious human-animal relationship.Forests around the globe are still shrinking, particularly those in tropical and developing countries. The next decade therefore will be extremely important for the world’s forests and wildlife, and China can play a leading role in saving them by better protecting its forests and expanding its forest cover.12. Why has the herd of elephants caused so much public interest?A. There exist heated discussions in the whole country even overseas.B. TV programs and social media platforms want to benefit from them.C. They are the first wild Asian Elephants to leave their natural habitat.D. The elephants has traveled a long distance and lived in harmony with humans.13. What can we infer from the third paragraph about the “fantastic” event?A. More research on the reasons behind the event is required.B. Scientists need to limit the habitats for elephants and other animals.C. People should find ways to have a good relationship with elephants.D. There’s an urgent demand for detailed information about the elephants.14. Which method is provided in the passage to restore nature?A. Expanding the coverage of forest.B. Getting the government’s policy support.C. Bringing up various ways to protect the forests.D. Offering more kinds of vegetation to all animals.15. What does this event of elephants leaving their habitats remind us to do?A. To set more goals to change the food chain.B. To be aware of the situation of the existing forests.C. To realize harmonious coexistence of human and nature.D. To reduce the destruction of the forests around the globe.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-­technology（生物技术）. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells（细胞）are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will beable to take medicine to repair their organs（器官）. The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.4. According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.A. diseases and agingB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. heart disease and war5. In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in（在于）________.A. the InternetB. medicineC. brain cellsD. human organs6. Humans may live longer in the future because ________.A. heart disease will be far away from usB. human brains can decide the final deathC. the basic materials of cells will last foreverD. human organs can be repaired by new medicine7. How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A. Over 100 years.B. More than 120 years.C. About 150 years.D. The passage doesn’t tell us.CTo hear people talk about Internet friendships, you would think it was one giant web of cat-fishing and e-crime. While we all undoubtedly have to take measures to remain safe online, assuming every friendship or connection made on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook is cheating or insincere would be a mistake.As a woman who works in the creative industry, I have found real joy in seeking out a community I couldn’t find elsewhere, and making some great friends along the way. My first online friendship was on Twitter with my(now) best friend, during the university exam period. We exchanged study notes in dozens of direct messages, set a study date, and haven’t looked back since.Drawn to each other by similar circumstances, friendships online are similar to offline in that they tend to begin because of shared interest or common ground-maybe they’ve read the post on Instagram. Maybe they have the same taste in food or politics. Or maybe they just love memes too. If online friendships start similar to friendships offline, they grow in the same way, too. Often through mutual support: apart from calling a friend to congratulate him on that new job, you also re-tweet his jokes and praise his Instagram story.Despite my positive experiences when I tell people, most are still suspicious. Eyebrows are raised higher when I explain not only have I found a community online but have made friendships with people I meet face-to-face too. Actually, these are just as valid as other friendships, according to behavioural psychologist Jo Hemmings, who says online friendships can be real.So how do you know if people are there for the real you or just because you’re popular on Instagram?Hemmings has simple rules. She tells me “You have to equally feel comfortable that you’re getting something of each other instead of being used to enable something that isn’t friendship.”Therefore, if all a “friend” online is asking you to do is to promote their work or personal brand and rarely takes an interest in you, then there may be room to question the basis of the friendship. On that note it is worth remembering that just because someone has a lot of followers, it doesn’t necessarily mean they have lots of friends.8. What is most people’s attitude towards online friendship?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Objective.D. Neutral.9. Why does the writer share her own experience in paragraph 2?A. To introduce the background information of the text.B. To convey the writer’s attitude and give the related example.C. To prove the likely risk for people to develop friendship online.D. To remind people of the various benefits of making friends online.10. How can online and offline friendships be deepened?A. They should be based on shared interest.B. They need to have common ground.C. They require support from each other.D. They can’t live without social media.11. According to the author, what’s the golden rule to make friends online?A. A friend to all is a friend to none.B. Without confidence there is no friendship.C. A friend without faults will never be found.D. Friendship cannot stand always on one side.DWatching what you eat can be easier said than done, but a recent study shows it might not just be about what's on your plate — it could be about how quickly it disappears.Japanese researchers followed 1,083 adultsfor five years, splitting them into three categories based on howquickly they ate: slow, normal, and fast. They also answered a questionnaire at the beginning of the study, sharing their diet, physical activity, and medical history. In the beginning, none of the volunteers had metabolic syndrome (新陈代谢综合征) - meaning at least three risk factors — which can lead to health problems like heart conditions and diabetes.When the participants reported back five years later 84 had been diagnosed (诊断) with metabolic syndrome — and their eating speed was a major predictor, according to the results in the journal Circulation. The fast eaters were 89 percent more likely to have metabolic syndrome than slow and normal eaters. Just 2.3 percent of slow eaters received the diagnosis, compared to 11.6 percent of fast eaters. But that's not all. Fast eaters also saw more weight gain, larger waistlines, and higher blood sugar levels than slow eaters.The researchers saygobblingmakes it easier not to take notice of fullness before your body has a chance to signal you to stop. “So when people eat fast they are more likely to overeat,” said Takayuki Yamaji, MD, study author and cardiologist at Hiroshima University in Japan in a statement.Previous research backs up the weight benefits of slow eating, too. One study of New Zealand women found fast eaters have higher body-mass indexes (指数), and a Chinese study found that both healthy and fat men ate less when told to chew 40 times instead of 15 times before swallowing. Initial research even suggests chewing your food longer could bum more calories - up to about 1,000 extra every month.12. What are the participants divided by?A. Medical history.B. Health condition.C. Physical activity.D. Eating speed.13. Which may be the result of the study?A. Fast eaters are 4 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome.B. Normal and slow eaters don’t have metabolic illness.C. 89% of fast eaters have higher blood pressure.D. Slow caters are healthier than fast eaters.14. What does the underlined word “gobbling” in Paragraph 4 best mean?A. Tasting slowly.B. Digesting quickly.C. Eating greedily.D. Cooking carefully.15. What does the last paragraph tell us?A. The importance of eating speed.B. The advantage of eating slowly.C. The result of a Chinese study.D. Fast eating and overeating.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

We should bring our own shopping bags when we go shopping. Second, we should save energy and water. We should turn off the lights and other electrical appliances when we don't use them. We should also take shorter showers and turn offthe tap when we brush our teeth.

2021年辽宁省大连市高考英语双基试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共37.5分）AReaders will discover explorers, landmarks and more in the following maps and travel books. Maps Special Edition, ₤ 25This book was already popular in our children's area and has been made even better with this special edition. The collection of 68 maps takes you through 58 countries and six continents. It is packed with illustrated information, including famous historical figures, local dishes, some festivals, landmarks, etc.Maps of the United Kingdom, ₤17.99Technically aimed at children, it contains lots of information and facts. It's very well put together, especially when it comes to choosing the seven famous people with a connection to their special place. Philip Pullman, for example, is associated with Norfolk.Harry Potter's London, ₤3.99Harry Potter's London is a map that covers information on three walks taken in the best of the central London locations in the hugely popular films.

Ushorne First Sticker Book Flags, ₤5.99Learn the flag of every country in the world by placing the flag sticker on the correct countries on the maps.

Common people.B. Geography teachers.C. Young readers.D. Map collectors.BProudly reading my words, I looked around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and Miss Lancelot stone-faced. I slowly raised the report, hoping to hide myself and burning to find out "What could be causing everyone to act this way"Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple：go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country,I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow,it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts,while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen,wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice：flip（掷）a coin. Heads-the commander, and tails-the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.When another classmate began his report, it all became clear, "My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution." How could I know that she meant that George Washington？Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I talked to Miss Lancelot,but she insisted：no re-dos；no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather and the headmaster informed me of his approval that I could skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!4.What did the author's classmates think about his report？______A. Amusing.B. Moving.C. Controversial.D. Puzzling.5.What does the underlined word "burning" in Para. 1 probably mean？______A. Ready.B. Annoyed.C. Eager.D. Ashamed.6.Why was the author confused about the task______A. The teacher's instruction was unclear.B. He knew little about American history.C. He was a new comer to the school.D. He followed the advice to flip a coin.7.Why did the author say "Justice is sweet"？______A. He was allowed to redo the test.B. He was devoted to his studies.C. His efforts were recognized by school.D. The punishment was reasonable.CImagine that the genome （基因组）is a book. The book consists of 23 chapters, with thousands of stories made up of paragraphs, words and letters on different levels. There are one billion words in the book, which makes it longer than 500 dictionaries. If I read the genome out to you at the rate of one word per second for eight hours a day, it would take me a century. If I wrote out the human genome, one letter per millimeter, my text would be as long as the River Danube. This enormous document, however, all fits inside the extremely small nucleus（核）of a tiny cell that fits easily upon the head of a pin （针尖）.The idea of the genome as a book is not, strictly speaking, even a metaphor（比喻）. It is true to a great extent. A book is a piece of digital information, written in one-directional form and controlled by a system that translates a small alphabet（字母表）of letters into a large dictionary of meanings through the order of their groupings. So is a genome. The only difference is that all English books read from left to right,while some parts of the genome read from left to right,and some from right to left,though never both at the same time.While English books are written in words of different lengths using twenty-six letters,genomes are written entirely in three-letter words, using only four letters. And instead of being written on flat pages, they are written on long chains of DNA molecules（分子）. The genome is a very clever book, because in the right conditions it can both photocopy itself and read itself.8.What facts do you know about the genome？______A. It has 23 chapters.B. It is extremely long.C. It is in the cell nucleus.D. It is on the pin head.9.In what sense is the genome like a book？______A. Both have digital images.B. Both are read from left to right.C. Both are grouped by subject.D. Both have a translation system.10.What can we know about genomes from paragraph 3？______A. They are nearly of the same length.B. They are made up of DNA.C. They can reproduce each other.D. They are written on flat pages.11.Why did the writer make a comparison of the genome to a book______A. To focus on the differences.B. To emphasize the similarities.C. To simplify the concept.D. To give different description.DWe're loving the sea to death. We swim into it, live near it, build beside it, and even imagine about living under the sea. For much of our history, we have turned to "hard engineering" to control the marine （海洋的）environment and manage its influence on us. We build dams, sea walls and channels. But all these efforts seem to fail, because we've not been thinking about design of structures with respect to ecology. Some coastal structures create shade, which reduces the growth of seaweed. Bright lights at night contuse species such as turtles （海龟）. That's why blue engineering comes in.Johnson, a marine ecologist, is advocating for "blue engineering" - the marine version of the "green engineering" movement on land that has seen nations like Singapore building the walls and roofs of the concrete jungle with plant life.Researchers with the World Harbour Project are creating tiles（瓦片）similar to the natural structures found on rocky shores with 3D printing technology. These make more attractive homes for marine creatures. Researchers are also actively seeding these tiles with local seaweeds and creatures such as the Sydney rock oyster,which is particularly good at improving water quality. Twelve harbors around the world are taking part in this marine tile experiment, each working with their own unique marine life.It's a far cry from the days when huge numbers of old tyres were thrown into the sea to build "artificial reefs（礁石）". Those early attempts are now costing millions to remove, showing just how far we have yet to go in understanding how best to co-habit with the underwater world.12.What do we know about "hard engineering"______A. It has improved sea environment.B. It controls the influence of sea well.C. It has failed to achieve its purpose.D. It makes living under the sea possible.13.What does the underlined word "contuse" in Paragraph 1 mean？______A. Injure.B. Heat.C. Defend.D. Involve.14.Which of the following is a form of "blue engineering"______A. Growing plant life on concrete buildings.B. Building rocky shores with 3D printers.C. Creating an artificial reef with old tyres.D. Building structures benefiting sea creatures.15.What's the main idea of the passage？______A. Two ways of sea engineering.B. The green engineering movement.C. Construction of artificial reefs.D. Research on blue engineering.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Human beings learn technology from nature. They tend to imitate it.（1）______ It did take us a while to learn, though. However, not until the mid-twentieth century was the word "biomimicry （仿生学）" first introduced.One of the first examples would be the invention of Velcro（魔术贴），a material that was born after a walk in the countryside by an engineer and his dog. On returning home, he found his socks were filled with little burrs（刺果）.（2）______ They were covered by many tiny hooks （勾）. He used those qualities for some kind of fabric. And then Velcro was born.（3）______ A high-speed train used to create great noise while exiting a tunnel because of the air pressure. Eiji Nakatsu, an engineer and bird-lover,was inspired by the kingfisher's beak （鸟嘴），able to dive into the water at great speed with almost no friction,to create a new design. That's how the modern bullet train, much more efficient and quieter, was born. Secondly, there would be the imitation of Nature's strategies and mechanisms. For instance, dolphins have mastered the art of sending out ultrasound（超声波）without disturbing each other. A team of researchers have analyzed the way dolphins adjust these frequencies.（4）______Finally, there's the imitation of the efficiency within an ecosystem.（5）______ For example,the street is full of tiny holes to empty water in flooding seasons and the foundations of buildings grasp the hillsides like the roots of trees.A.One is the imitation of shapes.B.People imitate forests to build cities.C.For instance, birds taught people to fly.D.He decided to get rid of these little burrs.E.Then he bent down to inspect them closely.F.Urban areas consume more energy than rural areas.G.Based on the analysis, they designed a tsunami alarm system.16.

However, sinceChina's economy took off in the last decade, street vendors have gradually disappeared from the streets and many of them opened shops of their own.Fast forward to today, street vendors have come into our sight again after cities such asChengduand Yantai succeeded in creating hundreds of thousands of jobs by giving street stalls permission to operate.China's tech industry was quick to jump on the street vendor trend, with tech giants including Alibaba, Tencent, Meituan and flocking todish outcheap loans, offer support and payment solutions to millions of owners of newly established small businesses.Ant Financial, Alibaba's fintech arm, promised its mobile wallet app Alipay will give interest-free loans to 30 million vendors, and 70 billion RMB of interest-free credit line to consumers to make purchases everywhere, including street vendors. provided 50 billion RMB worth of quality goods for street vendors, and provided each one of them with a maximum 100,000 RMB interest-free loan to stock up.Tencent's WeChat announced to offer payment solutions, marketing supports and even training for up to 50 million street vendors, with the end goal of digitally transforming them to increase their income.Guangzhoucity partnered with WeChat this month to hold a live streaming shopping festival to improve sales of local produce.

For example, people from southernChinaprefer to eat vegetables, while people from northChinalike to eat meat. According to a new study in a journal, gene variations (变异) might be responsible for these differences. Researchers fromChina’s BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women, who came from 31 provinces and consisted of 36 ethnic minority groups.They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have developed, affecting their food preferences, immunities (免疫力) to illness and physical features.A variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids, which suggests a diet that is rich in flesh. This is due to climate differences.Northern Chinais at a higher latitude. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southernChinacarry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria. Malaria was once quite common in southernChina. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more sensitive to certain illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax, less body smell and fewer sweats. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not develop in their population.8. What did the new study focus on?A. Regions.B. Eating habits.C. Gene variations.D. Ethnic minority groups.9.
