2020届天津市塘沽区第一中学高三英语模拟试题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AIt looks like 2017 is shaping up to be a record-breaking year in movie History. Here is a list of some of the year’s biggest blockbusters so far.Kong: Skull IslandA reboot (重启) of King Kong would normally get laughed at in this day and age, but it looks like this modem version of the story will be worth watching. With US actress Brie Larson and UK actor Tom Hiddleston in the mix, this film is set to be this year’s biggest monster tale.Release Date:3/10/17Beauty and the BeastDirector Bill Condon is bringing back a part of our childhood in live action, complete with the songs we all remember and love. With British stars Emma Watson and Dan Stevens leading thecast, the classic Walt Disney story already sounds like it’ll be a delight for both children and adults.Release Date:3/17/17The Fate of the FuriousThere was doubt that we’d even get a Fast 8, especially after the fitting ending US actor Paul Walker’s character was given at the end of Furious 7. Fans thought they’d never see Dom and the rest of the crew back in action, but thankfully, US star Vin Diesel himself confirmed that The Fate of the Furious is fueling up for another go.Release Date:4/14/17Spider-Man: HomecomingSpider Man is heading home to Marvel Studios for the first time. The movie will show us Peter Parker’s high school days, and will continue the threads we saw formed during his initial appearance in Captain America: Civil War. We know that Michael Keaton is playing The Vulture in this story, and that both Happy Hogan and Tony Stark, played by US actors Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr., are along for the ride.Release Date:7/7/171.Which of the following movies can’t you see on May Day?A.Kong: Skull Island.B.Beauty and the Beast.C.The Fate of the Furious.D.Spider-Man: Homecoming.2.What can we know about Beauty and the Beast?A.It is fueling up for another go.B.It is produced by Marvel StudiosC.It’ll show us Peter Parker’s school days.D.It’ll be enjoyable for both children and adults.3.What does the underlined word “cast” probably mean?A.Characters.B.Actors.C.Directors.D.Teachers.BSonoma County is adding artificial intelligence to its wildfire fighting. The county has entered into an agreement with the South Korean firm Alchera to equip its network of fire-spotting cameras with software that detects wildfire activity and then issues a warning to authorities.The technology examines past and current images of terrain (地形;地势) and searches for certain changes, such as flames burning in darkness, said Chris Godley, the county’s director of emergency management. But emergency workers will first have to“teach”the system to distinguish between images that show fire smoke, and others that might show clouds, fog etc. The software will use feedback from humans to improve its algorithm(算法) and will eventually be able to detect fires on its own — or at least that’s what county officials hope.“It’s kind of like learning how to read,”Godley said. “What letters can I put together to make up a word?” The county activated the technology Wednesday and received 16 positive reports of smoke — all of which turned out to be permitted burns, he said. Once a seasonal ban on controlled burns goes into effect in April or May, the county plans to speed up the testing and feedback phase. The hope is that by November, the system will no longer need to be taught and can start providing reliable intelligence. Godley said. “It’s going to take us a while to make sure weget the bugs outand that we really can depend on it because ultimately this is a lifesaving mission.”The technology is intended to help officials investigate potential fire starts earlier so they can get personnel out to them more quickly and issue necessary warnings. Officials expect other places will adopt it if the technology is successful, particularly because it plugs into the camera network that’s already in place statewide.“We ultimately believe its potential could be realized in a year or two,” Godley said. “And it could really have a dramatic impact here in California.”4. What does the system first have to do before being put into work?A. Equip its network of fire-spotting cameras with software.B. Learn to tell between images of fire smoke and other pictures.C. Use feedbacks to improve its ability to detect fire independently.D. Examine images of the terrain and search for any possible changes.5. What do local officials expect the technology to accomplish?A. Be able to make positive reports of smoke.B. Be able to control seasonal burns in the area.C. Help them spot potential fire starts as soon as possible.D. Learn how to distinguish pictures of flames from clouds.6. What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 mean?A. kill all the bugs.B. get rid of mistakesC. provide reliable informationD. speed up testing process7. What does the author mainly intend to tell us?A. AI is creating a dramatic impact in California.B. AI is applied to monitor terrains in California.C. A new tool to help detect wildfire in California.D. A new way to put an end to wildfire in California.CJIANLI, Hubei Province, June 2 (Xinhua) — A cruise ship carrying more than 450 people sank in the Yangtze River overnight, which could be China’s worst sinking disaster in decades. As of 6 p.m. Tuesday, 14 peoplehad been rescued from the capsized vessel, with five others confirmed dead. The rest are still missing, although rescuers said there could be more survivors. Strong winds and heavy rain are hampering rescue efforts.The Eastern Star sank in only 15 meters of water “within one or two minutes” of being caught in freak weather in Jianli, according to the ship’s captain and chief engineer who survived the incident. The ship left the eastern Chinese city ofNanjingon May 28 bound forChongqingMunicipality.The ship was carrying 403 passengers, five tour guides, and 46 crew, rather than the previously reported 47. Most passengers were tourists fromShanghaiand its neighboringprovinceofJiangsu, aged between 3 and 83, with most in their 60s and 70s.The 76.5-meter-long and 11-meter-wide vessel has been in service for nearly 20 years and can carry up to534 people. It is owned by Chongqing Dongfang Shipping. Waterway officials said they have no record of the company being involved in any previous sinking incidents.According to weather forecast, most of the Yangtze basin will be subject to downpours over the next 10 days, with heavy rain expected in the area where the search is underway.Police, waterway authorities and fire departments have sent more than 150 boats and over 4,000 personnel to the scene. The Chinese Navy has sent diving forces to search for the missing. The team is composed of soldiers from the navy’s fleets in the North Sea, East China Sea, andSouth China Sea, as well as students of the Naval University of Engineering. In addition, five helicopters were dispatched fromBeijingandHubei’s provincial capital ofWuhanon Tuesday morning, along with an IL-76 transport plane.8. We can infer from the text that ________.A. the incident was very suddenB. the weather benefited the rescueC. the ship had bad safety recordsD. the ship’s captain was drowned9. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the Eastern Star?A. It was overloaded.B. It’s been launched recently.C. It had 454 people on board.D. Its owner met similar incidents.10. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. How people came to the rescue.B. Why the rescue was quite difficult.C. What the rescue force consisted of.D. How the rescue operation went on.11. The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to ________.A. informB. explainC. describeD. entertainDImagine the feeling of swinging at a baseball going 100 miles per hour—without leaving your living room, or being in race car as it roars down the track, while you are sitting on the couch.These are just some of the ways that sports business leaders say virtual reality (VR) will revolutionize how people train for and experience sports. Virtual and augmented(增强的)realities are together known as mixed reality (MR). “American footballers are already using VR to better train their minds andread the field,” Ludden said. “This can allow players to perfect their skills without risking injury.”Canadian company D-BOX Technologies designs and produces moving seats found in cinema and theme parks. It is now moving into sports, and shows its Formula One (F1) racing simulator(模拟器). The seats stimulate the force of gravity, speed and every shaking as Fl champion Lewis Hamilton zips around city streets.A simulation seat uses pre-programed data now. Someday, though, it could use real-time information sent by the car. “They couldbroadcast live content through a network in pop-up theaters around the world,” Ludden said. Say you want to experience the true stress of a batter being up against major-league baseball pitcher. “You can have a heartbeat added to the sensation on the seat and then you can feel it, boom, boom,” Maheu explained. “When he swings and hits the ball, you can have an impact.”One day, fans around the world could physically experience every game from their favorite player in real time. Ludden said that current and near-future technology could create “augmented stadiums” for live audiences. Panasonic launched its “Smart Venue” plans which included the overlaying of graphics, advertisements, player statistics and replays on the field of play at a pro football game. “If you are seated in the cheap seats, you can see this really useful.” “Fans may someday join in stadium wide games, using the field as a virtual gaming platform,” Ludden added.12. What does the underlined phrase “read the field” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Get off the playing field.B. Build up a football court.C. Judge the situation on the field.D. Ask players to play on the spot.13. What does Maheu think audiences can do in the future baseball game?A. Enjoy live content in any theater.B. Program the simulation seats in advance.C. Control the force and speed of the baseball.D. Experience the real time game with the player.14. What does Ludden mainly describe in the last paragraph?A. The origin of VR.B. A future stadium.C. An advertisement platform.D. The expectations of audiences.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. VR can improve players' skills for sports.B. VR increases fans' joy in the baseball game.C. VR can improve sports experience for players and fans.D. VR promises a new future for football players and games.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。
2020届天津市塘沽区第一中学高三英语模拟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AThe Internet has revolutionized our lives to such an extent (程度) that for most people, the global network has become more than just a tool but rather an important aid in everyday life. More and more people go online as wireless networks have brought the Internet closer and closer: it’s on our mobile phones, in our cars and TV sets, in hospital surgery rooms and in fishing boats that battle the waves of the Atlantic.And this revolution has brought along with it a new way of shopping. Both big and small, e-business websites have flooded the Internet by the hundreds of thousands. Anything you can buy from a brick and mortar store (实体店) you can also buy online: from food and clothes to toys, no matter what you’re looking for, you’re bound to find the right online store with just a few clicks of the mouse. You can use the Internet to find new suppliers, post buying requests or search for products and services.This revolution has affected brick and mortar business owners greatly. And what was their reaction? They’ve opened online stores to go hand in hand with their conventional business.But do the big players have reasons to be afraid? Are we going to start seeing ghostly, deserted Walmarts (沃尔玛) across the country? Probably not in the near future but the day will come when most people will just stop shopping offline anymore. A trip to Walmart wastes time, burns gas.The recent advancements in mobile technology and the introduction of mobile phones with enhanced (提高的) web capabilities have even made some people order their groceries when they get out from work and have them delivered at their doorstep by the time they get home. And as “Time is money”, this practice is lifesaving for people whowork two jobs.Technology will continue to advance and e-business will follow closely in its footsteps. Everything will become easier and less time consuming, leaving us more time to enjoy the things that really matter in life: the ones we love, our friends and hobbies.1. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A. The popularity of mobile phones.B. The great influence of the Internet.C. The importance of the Internet.D. The function of the global network.2. In response to the threat of online business, the brick-and-mortar store owners________.A. have stopped their traditional businessB. have started their dislike of the InternetC. have established their own websiteD. have opened their online stores3. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A New Way of Shopping.B. The Internet Revolution.C. What is the Reaction to Online Shopping?D. Is Online Shopping the Future of E-business?BWhat a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I'd been at the school for a hundred years!The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn't love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn't stop laughing.My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school. I only hope that my new friends feel the same way too.4. How did the author feel the night before her new school?A. Tired.B. ConfidentC. Worried.D. homesick5. What did the author think of her mother’s advice?A. Clear.B. Funny.C. OptionalD. Respectable6. What happened on the author's first day of school?A. She met many nice people.B. She had a hurried breakfast.C. She learned tome new skills.D. She arrived at school very early.7. What can we infer about Abigail?A. She disliked Stacey.B. She was shy and quiet.C. She got on well with the author.D. She was an old friend of the author.COne of the greatest challenges in caring for such intelligent animals as chimpanzees(猩猩)is providing them with enriching experiences. Every day, the chimpanzees at Project Chimps receive morning and evening food-based enrichment devices, but caregivers are always looking for more ways to keep the chimps mentally engaged. With 79 chimpanzees, each with their distinctive personality, care staff often find that different chimps react differently to new enrichment.Last year, we began inviting musicians to perform for chimps to see what they may respond. A violin performance received quite the response. Additional musicians were lined up to visit but the coronavirus has stopped the activities, which we hope toresumein the near future.This past week, we brought an electric piano for the chimps to investigate. Some chimps, like twins Buttercup and Clarisse, were immediately interested and could not wait to tap out a few notes. Others, like Emma, were more interested in trying to take it apart.29- year-old Precious has very little tolerance for the piano. She sat off to the side for a few minutes, but eventually she decided that was enough. She called an end to the enrichment session by throwing a handful of waste at the piano. Receiving her message loud and clear, we removed the piano.We could never have guessed how 33-year-old Luke would react to it. As with many retired lab chimpanzees Luke has some anxiety issues. He seems particularly distrustful of anything new, including people, food, and enrichment. But when we presented the chimps with the piano, Luke was the first to investigate. We could not believe our eyes — this usually anxious chimpanzee bravely chose to explore something new!To us at Project Chimps, this is what it is all about: giving chimpanzees the freedom to choose. We are honored to be part of their journey.8. Why do chimpanzees respond differently to new enrichment?A. They are of different genders.B. They have natural curiosities.C They are as intelligent as humans. D. They have their unique characters.9. What does the underlined word “resume” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Continue.B. Suspend.C. Monitor.D. Regulate.10. Who showed the least interest in the piano?A. Buttercup and Clarisse.B. Emma.C. Precious.D. Luke.11. What is the text mainly about?A. How caregivers care for the retired chimpanzees.B. What care staff do to enrich chimpanzees' daily life.C. How chimpanzees are trained through various enrichment.D. What Project Chimps does to observe and study wild chimps.DPeople saved a 20-foot orca (虎鲸) that was stuck between rocks on an Alaskan shore by continuously pouring water over it and protecting it from birds who circled above the defenseless whale.The whale was ultimately saved after a six-hour, labor-intensive life-saving operation. Someone spotted the large whale on the Prince of Wales Island near the coast of British Columbia on the morning of July 29th. The Coast Guard was called around 9 a.m. local time. Chance Strickland, the captain of a private yacht in Alaska, and his crew anchored and began life-saving action that were videoed by Aroon Melane and posted on the Internet.Strickland could hear the orca calling out to killer whales swimming in the area. People on other boats stopped with water and buckets to pour water over the animal. “There were tears coming out of its eyes,” Mr. Strickland told the local newspaper. “It was pretty sad.”The group of people formed a chain that passed buckets of seawater back and forth and poured the water on the orca, which seemed to liven it up. It made a noise and raised its tail when it got water.The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was called in, which can be seen on the video using a machine to spray amist of seawater on the orca, which doubled as a way to keep the whale cool and scare the large group of birds that were hoping to feast on the beast.Melane said in her video that the orca was stranded (搁浅) for about six hours until the tide came in andswept it back into the ocean. The group efforts of Strickland’s crew and the NOAA saved the 13-year-old killer whale.12. Why did birds circle above the orca?A. They were eager to eat it.B. They wished to protect it.C. They were attracted by the people.D. They wanted to find a place to rest.13. What did Strickland do immediately after finding the whale?A. Posted pictures online.B. Called friends for help.C. Took action to save it.D. Videoed the trapped animal.14. Why did the whale make a noise and raise its tail?A. To express its eager for water.B. To extend its thanks to people.C. To call out to its fellow whales.D. To show its power and sadness.15. Which can be the best title for the text?A. Killer Whale Got SavedB. The Orca Inspired KindnessC. Combined Efforts WantedD. Animals and Humans United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。

Although its harmful impacts on both species and ecosystems have been documented, a few animals—like bowerbirds and hermit crabs—are doing what they can to recycle it. And according to a recent study, wild bees in Canada have joined the effort, which is a rare observation of behavioral flexibility in species especially insects, in increasingly plastic-rich environments.The researchers found two species of leafcutter bees putting plastic into their nests. One of the bees they studied, the alfalfa leafcutter bee, normally bites off pieces of leaves and flowers while the second bee gathers sticky substances from trees. Leafcutter bees don't build big nests or store honey like honeybees, choosing instead small nests in underground holes, tree holes or cracks(裂缝)in buildings. But the researchers found that three of eight brood cells(育雏巢室)contained pieces of plastic bags, replacing 23 percent of the cut leaves in each cell on average.While they don't make honey,alfalfa leafcutter bees still make money for theU. S. and Canadian farmers by pollinating(给......传授花粉)crops including alfalfa , carrots and melons. The European insects were introduced to North America in the 1930s for that purpose, and they've since become wild, joining the continent's many native species of leafcutter bees.In a separate study conducted in Argentina between 2017 and 2018, researchers found a bee nest made entirely of plastic, which consisted of three separate cells. It's the first known example of such construction worldwide. Compared to the other nests the researchers examined, which were made of natural materials, this one had a pretty lower success rate of the bees' survival. One of the cells had a dead baby bee , another seemed to have housed an adult that had left the nest, and the third was unfinished.4. What does the animals' use of plastic show according to the study?A. How widely plastic is used.B. How strange the behavior of wildlife is.C. How some wildlife is adapting to plastic.D. How plastic pollution has harmed them.5. What do leaves mean to alfalfa leafcutter bees?A. Food.B. Shelter.C A plastic substitute. D. Traditional nest materials.6. Which is one characteristic of leafcutter bees?A. They have great economic value.B. They store honey like honeybees.C. They prefer to live in tree holes.D. They have evolved into a new species.7. What was the nest made entirely of plastic like?A. It might be warmer.B. It might be unhealthy.C. It might be easy to finish.D. It might be recyclable.CThere is an old army joke about an officer who asks some soldiers whether any of them are interested in music. When four hands go up, the officer says, “Right, men. You can carry this grand piano down to the officers mess.”Job recruitment has become more complicated since that story first did the rounds. Today's careers require a lot more than just raw music but that sometimes makes jobs hard to define. An unfortunate result is a form of “adjective inflation” in recruitment ads as employers attempt to make routine tasks sound exciting.Candidates must sometimes wonder whether they are applying for a 9-to-5-role or to become a member of the Marvel “Avengers”. On Indeed, a job-bunting website, a bar was recently looking for "bartenders who are people focused, quality-driven, and have superhero hospitality powers". The ability to give customers the correct change was not mentioned.Another British company advertised for “a call-centre ninja, a superhero in people", a Job description which sounds a little over-the top for what was in fact a role at an insurance company in Isleworth. In case you think that ad was not typical. Indeed also had jobs demanding “ninja-like attention to detail". Short of turning up for the interview dressed head-to-toe in black, and then sneaking up behind the managing director at his desk, it is hard to see how candidates could show their ninja qualities.Not all companies require candidates to possess the qualities of a ninja, of course. Some require applicants to be passionate. The Bluewater shopping mall in southeastEnglandwas looking for “passionate sales-driven brand ambassadors” while “passionate crew members” were needed at a bakery in westLondonfor a wage of just £8. 23 an hour. In fact, passion is pretty hard to keep consistently for 40 hours a week, month after month. Job applicants should find some information from the kind of ads that companies place. If a job ad talks about passion orsuperheroes, run away faster than a speeding Batmobile. Being a ninja should be reserved for teenage mutant ninja turtles.8. Why does the author mention the joke in Paragraph 1?A. To show that officers enjoy playing tricks on soldiers.B. To introduce the topic of overstated job ads.C. To explain the origin of complex job ads.D. To describe soldiers' everyday life.9. Which of the following offers a job demanding ninja qualities?A. The bar.B. The bakery.C. The insurance company.D. The Bluewater shopping mall.10. What does the author say about the ads requiring passion?A. They are unrealistic.B. They are typical of want ads.C. They are appealing to applicants.D. They are uncommon on Indeed.11. How does the author sound when talking about today’s job ads?A. Curious.B. Hesitant.C. Humorous.D. Sympathetic.DWhat a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I'd been at the school for a hundred years!The day started very early at 7:00 am.

I think we should each try to find the opposite; a happy memory, something to lift us up on those inevitable down days. I’m saying this because I think I just found mine!I had some work in Glasgow today. I was on a really tight schedule, which meant I would英语第6页(共17页)have no time for myself (or my own work) all day. I was having one of those days, the train was completely packed out and the conversation going on around me seemed to be particularly inane. On top of all that, I had a bit of a headache.Walking briskly across the concourse, I fished some change from my pocket. There was usually someone at the exit selling The Big Issue (a magazine that helps homeless folk earn a living).As the crowd parted ways at the bottom of the concourse, I saw someone selling the Big Issue. You had to be homeless to s ell the Big Issue. She really looked like she’d been sleeping rough. Her clothes were ragged and she obviously hadn’t had a scrub up for quite a while.As I approached the exit, I saw that she was also rocking from side to side. At first I thought maybe sh e was trying to keep warm against the biting wind. But she wasn’t, she was moving in time to a tune. I couldn’t hear her, but I could see her lips moving.As I got closer, I saw a white cane hanging from her elbow and noticed that she had sunken eyes. She was blind, dirty and living on the streets. I came closer and through the noise of the traffic and the commuters I heard her sing the immortal line, “…and I think to myself, what a wonderful world!”I bought her last magazine for twice what I’d originall y intended. She thanked me, then she picked up her stuff and went tapping off along the pavement - still singing!So, I have my happy memory for the day. And I think it will stay with me a long, long time. Feel free to borrow it if you like.41.Why do some actors keep a sad thought or memory according to the passage?A. Because some of them always feel unhappyB. because they are scolded by the directorC. Because it helps meet the needs of their rolesD. Because they can’t find a happy memory42. What d oes the underlined word “fished” in para3 refer to?A. MadeB. exchangedC. pull intoD. took out43. Which of the following is TURE according to the third para?英语第7页(共17页)A. Only those homeless people can sell the magazineB. The author heard her singing as he came close to the exitC. The girl selling the magazines was blind, dirty and homelessD. The author never heard what the girl was singing44. It can be inferred from the passage that_________A. the author had a headache because of his busy workB. the author bought more magazines than planned toC. the girl went away as soon as she sold out magazinesD. the author felt unhappy because he missed his train45. What’s the best title for the passage?A. A happy Memory to Lift You UpB. An Unforgettable Day I ExperiencedC. The Roses in Her Hand: the Flavor in MineD. A Bird in the Hand is Worth than Two in the Bush.CThe AlphaGo program’s victory is an example of how smart computers have become.But can artificial intelligence (AI) machines act ethically, meaning can they be honest and fair? One example of AI is driverless cars. They are already on California roads, so it is not too soon to ask whether we can program a machine to act ethically. As driverless cars improve, they will save lives. They will make fewer mistakes than human drivers do. Sometimes, however, they will face a choice between lives. Should the cars be programmed to avoid hitting a child running across the road, even if that will put their passengers at risk? What about making a sudden turn to avoid a dog? What if the only risk is damage to the car itself, not to the passengers?Perhaps there will be lessons to learn from driverless cars, but they are not super-intelligent英语第8页(共17页)beings. Teaching ethics to a machine even more intelligent than we are will be the bigger challenge.About the same time as AlphaGo’s triumph, Microsoft’s ‘chatbot’ took a bad turn. The software, named Taylor, was designed to answer messages from people aged 18-24. Taylor was supposed to be able to learn from the messages she received. She was designed to slowly improve her ability to handle conversations, but some people were teaching Taylor racist ideas. When she started saying nice things about Hitler, Microsoft turned her off and deleted her ugliest messages.AlphaGo’s victory and Taylor’s defeat ha ppened at about the same time. This should be a warning to us. It is one thing to use AI within a game with clear rules and clear goals. It is something very different to use AI in the real world. The unpredictability of the real world may bring to the surface a troubling software problem.Eric Schmidt is one of the bosses of Google, which own AlphaGo. He thinks AI will be positive for humans. He said people will be the winner, whatever the outcome. Advances in AI will make human beings smarter, more able a nd “just better human beings.”46.What does the author want to show with the example of AlphaGo’s victory?A. Computers will prevail(战胜) over human beings.B. Computers have unmatched potential.C. Computers are man’s potential rivals.D. Computers can become highly intelligent.47.What does the author mean by AI machines acting ethically?A. They are capable of predicting possible risks.B. They weigh the gains and losses before reaching a decision.C. They make sensible decisions when facing moral dilemmas.D. They sacrifice everything to save human lives.英语第9页(共17页)48.What is said to be the bigger challenge facing humans in the AI age?A. How to make super-intelligent AI machines share human feelings.B. How to ensure that super-intelligent AI machines act ethically.C. How to prevent AI machines doing harm to humans.D. How to avoid being over-dependent on AI machines.49.What do we learn about Microsoft’s ‘chatbot’ Taylor?A. She could not distinguish good from bad.B. She could turn herself off when necessary.C. She was not made to handle novel situations.D. She was good at performing routine tasks.50. What does Eric Schmidt think of artificial intelligence?A. It will be far superior to human beings.B. It will keep improving as time goes by.C. It will prove to be valuable to human beings.D. It will be here to stay whatever the outcome.DAmericans have always been ambivalent in their attitudes toward education. On the one hand, free and universal public education was seen as necessary in a democracy, for how else would citizens learn how to govern themselves in a responsible way? On the other hand, America was always a country that offered financial opportunities for which education was not needed: on the road from rags to riches, schooling-beyond the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic-was an unnecessary detour.Even today, it is still possible for people to achieve financial success without much education, but the number of situations in which this is possible is decreasing. In today's more complex world, the opportunities for financial success is closely related to the need for英语第10页(共17页)education, especially higher education.Our society is rapidly becoming one whose chief product is information, and dealing with this information requires more and more specialized education. In other words, we grow up learning more and more about fewer and fewer subjects.In the future, this trend is likely to continue. Tomorrow's world will be even more complex than today's world, and, to manage this complexity, even more specialized education will be needed.51. The topic treated in this passage is _____.A. education in generalB. Americans' attitudesC. higher educationD. American education52. Americans' attitudes toward education have always been _____.A. certainB. contradictoryC. ambitiousD. unclear53. Today, financial success is closely related to the need for _____.A. higher educationB. public educationC. responsible citizensD. learning the basics54. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _____.A. information is our only productB. education in the future will be specializedC. we are entering an age of informationD. we are living in an age of information55. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The History of American Education.B. The Need for Specialized Education.C. The Future of the American Educational System.D. Attitudes toward American Education.英语第11页(共17页)保密★启用前2020年塘沽一中高三毕业班复课模拟检测英语笔试第Ⅱ卷注意事项:1.用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。

To start, do as much research as you can and prepare a list of questions to ask. Once the interview starts, try to develop a rapport(融洽的关系) with your "source"—anyone a journalist interviews, but don't waste your time. If your source starts to talk about things that are clearly of no use to you, don't be afraid to gently but firmly turn the conversationback to the topic at hand.It's an old debate among journalists: Which works better when interviewing a source, taking notes (the old-fashioned way) or using a cassette or digital voice recorder? Both have their advantages and disadvantages. A reporter's notebook and a pen or pencil are the easy-to-use, time-honored tools of the interviewing trade, while recorders enable you to get everything someone says word for word. Which works better? It depends on what kind of story you're doing.Many beginning reporters complain that with a notepad and pen, they can never take down everything a source says in an interview. But you don't have to note everything down. Keep in mind that you're probably not going to use everything they say in your story. So don't worry if youlet slipa few things.So you've done a long interview with a source, you have pages of notes, and you're ready to write. But chances are you'll only be able to choose a few quotes from that information collected directly from the source. Which ones should you use? Reporters often talk about using only "good" quotes for their stories, but what does this mean? Broadly speaking, when someone says something interesting, and says it in an interesting way, that can make a good quote.4. What is a journalist advised to do during an interview?A. Be gentle with the source.B. Carry on a long conversation.C. Make the conversation interesting.D. Prevent the conversation being off-topic.5. What do the underlined words "let slip" in Paragraph 3 mean?A. give awayB. leave outC. get rid ofD. take up6. What is considered as a good quote for a reporter?A. A direct quote.B. An important point of view.C. A piece of basic information.D. Something funny a source says interestingly.7. What is the text mainly about?A. The job of a journalist.B. The process of interviewing.C Some facts about interviewing. D. The relationship between a journalist and a source.CKids often admire well-known celebrities, putting posters of their favorite musicians, movie stars and athletes on their bedroom walls. But rarely does a young person get to meet or talk to their idol. Yet for one young tennis player - Coco Gauff - her chance to do just that happened in an amazing way!Coco was born on March 13, 2004. At the age of 4, she developed an interest in tennis after watching Venus Williams win the Australian Open on TV. Coco began playing at 7 and showed a real talent for the sport. When young Coco turned 10, she began training at a tennis centre run by Venus's coach, Patrick Mouratoglou. He still remembers the first time he met Coco. He says, “She impressed me with her determination and fighting spirit. ” Convinced of her talent, Mouratoglou sponsored(资助)Coco to attend his academy in France. While she was preparing to go to the academy in 2019, she received a call that would change her plans and her life!Wimbledon(温布尔顿网球比赛)organizers called and offered Gauff entry to the tournament(联赛)as a wildcard(外卡选手).This madeher one of the youngest players to ever qualify. Before she knew it she was on her way to London. After arriving, she received another surprise. For her Wimbledon debut(首次登场),she would be playing her lifelong hero, Venus Williams! The tennis legend is 24years older than Gauff.The world watched with amazement as young Gauff beat Venus in two straight sets! Afterwards, Gauff shook Venus's hand, thanked her and said, “I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. " After the match, Venus said of Gauff, “I think the sky is the limit;it really is. " Venus said, “I feel honored that I was on her wall [as a poster] at some point in her life. Soon she will be on other girls' walls. It's nice because it will keep going from the next generation to the next generation. "8. What can we learn about Coco from the text?A. She took up tennis as career at the age of 4.B. She went to academy at the age of 7.C. She had played against William before 10.D. She beat William at the age of 159. Which of the following can best describe Coco?A. Talented and modest.B. Lucky and responsible.C. Proud and hard-working.D. Respectful and cheerful.10. What can we infer from Venus's words?A. Coco had reached her limits.B. Coco would rise to fame after the match.C. Coco's poster would be passed on.D. Coco had once visited her home.11. What can be a suitable title for the text ?A. Coco Gauff:Tennis's Next Superstar.B. Coco Gauff:A Poster on the Wall.C. What Posters Mean to a Young Girl.D. The Significance of Admiring an Idol.DThe market for tourism in remote areas is booming as never before. Countries all across the world are actively promoting their wilderness regions-such as mountains, Arctic lands, deserts, small islands and wetlands— to high-spending tourists. The attraction of these areas is obvious: by definition, wilderness tourism requires little or no initial investment. But that does not mean that there is no cost.Once a location is established as a main tourist destination, the effects on the local community are profound. Hill-farmers can make more money from foreign travellers than working in their fields. It is not surprising that many o£ them give up their farm-work. In some hill-regions, this has led to a serious decline in farm output and a change in the local diet, because there is lacking labour to maintain terraces and irrigation systems. The result has been that many people in these regions have turned to outside supplies of rice and other foods.InArcticand desert societies, year-round survival has traditionally depended on hunting animals and fish and collecting fruit over a ly short season. However, as some inhabitants become involved in tourism, they no longer have time to collect wild food; this has led to increasing dependence on bought food and stores. What should they do if these new sources of income dry up?The physical impact of visitors is another serious problem associated with the growth in adventure tourism. Much attention has focused on erosion along major roads, but perhaps more important are the forest destruction and impacts on water supplies arising from the need to provide tourists with cooked food and hot showers. In both mountains and deserts, slow-growing trees are often the main sources of fuel and water supplies may be limited through heavy use.12. Why are some countries promoting the wilderness regions to tourists?A. The wildness regions are accessible to tourists.B. The landscapes there are beautiful and unique.C. Developing tourism there doesn't need much investment.D. Lots of high-spending tourists prefer such remote regions.13. What is the effect of tourism on the local community?A. Many hill farmers have turned to outside supplies of foods.B. There is enough labour to maintain terraces and irrigation systems.C. Farm output there has increased and local diet has changed.D. The local people's new sources of income will dry up soon.14. Which might be the best title of the passage?A. The future of wilderness tourism.B. The impacts of wilderness tourism.C. The destruction of wilderness tourism.D. The disadvantages of wilderness tourism.15. If there is one more paragraph following the last paragraph, what will it talk about?A. The effects on local people.B. The solutions tothese problems.C. The choices of adventure tourists.D. The reasons for visiting remote areas.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。

can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room.A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.)cost £169.15 at Booking.com.A week later,the same room cost £118.15.If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid-or you're looking for a big event to pass your time-check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com,which allow you to search for events in the UK by city,date and category.STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train,youmay want to find a good base close to the station,but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.Don't be too choosy about the part of town you stay in.Booking two months in advance,the cheapest room atTravelodge's Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95.A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75.And atFarringdon,a double room cost just £62.95.LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London,Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune,especially at weekends and during big events.As an alternative,consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen.Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings.A great example is the historic O'Neill Flat on Edinburgh's Royal Mile,available for £420 for five days in late September,with room for four adults.GET ON A BIKE London's ‘Boris bikes' have attracted the most attention,but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace,saving you on public transport or car parking costs.Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours)and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes,or £5 per day).The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may ______ .A.help travelers pass timeB.attract lots of travelers to the UKC.allow travelers to make flexible plansD.cause travelers to pay more for accommodation"Farringdon" in Paragraph 3 is most probably ______ .A.a hotel away from the train stationB.the tube line to Covent GardenC.an ideal holiday destinationD.the name of a travel agencyThe passage shows that the O'Neill Flat ______ .A.lies on the ground floorB.is located in central LondonC.provides cooking facilities for touristsD.costs over £100 on average per day in late September Cardiff's program allows a free bike for a maximum period of ______ .A.half an hourB.one hourC.one hour and a halfD.two hoursThe main purpose of the passage is ______ .A.to tell visitors how to book in advanceB.to supply visitors with hotel informationC.to show visitors the importance of self-helpD.to offer visitors some money-saving tips37.I was at my parent's dinner table.Before me was a worn journal of thin and discoloredpages.It was my grandfather's journal and now belonged to my father.My grandfather had passed away in the months leading up to my birth.I never got to visit the places he had frequented and the people who had been a part of his life's journey.I was now about to enter his world,through the words he had left behind.Withinminutes,I was captivated by the power of the written words.In the magical script before me,I was transported to another age when food was an everyday art,planned,prepared and enjoyed in the company of others,and a time when people had the heart to pause their own lives to embrace (拥抱)each other's struggles.All this wasconveyed to me in the beauty of the words that flowedtogether to connect with the writer's mind and understand the world they lived in.That kind of writing seems to be lost on us today.We have gotten used to writing in bite-sized pieces for a public looking for entertainment,and hungry for information.No wonder,there are nearly 200 million bloggers on the Internet and a new blog iscreated somewhere in the world every half a second.Instead of adding to our collective wisdom,most of these writings reflect the superficiality (肤浅)and impatience of our day and age.This not only robs us of the skill of writing impressive essays,but also prevents us from exploring what is truly important.Writing humbles (使谦卑)us in a way that is vital for our character growth,by reminding us about the limits of the self and ourappropriate place in the vast flow of life.Writing frees us by helping us explore theunknown so that we truly open up to the magic of the world around us.I saw all of this in the writings of my grandfather.And I've seen it again and again in the writings of the greatest thinkers of humanity.Their writings reflect deep thought on issues of human importance.The author begins the text with her grandfather's journal in order to ______ .A.recall the days she spent with her grandfatherB.present her grandfather's good habitC.introduce the topic of good writingsD.express her great interest in the journalThe underlined word "captivated" in the second paragraphcan be replaced by " ______ ".A.puzzledB.frightenedC.attractedD.defeatedIn the author's grandfather's age,people used to ______ .A.live a hard lifeB.care about each otherC.be fond of writingD.teach kids how to cookThe third paragraph mainly discusses ______ .A.the information age we are living inB.the large number of blogs on the netC.people's lack of wisdom nowadaysD.the current situation of public writingIn the last paragraph,the author is trying to ______ .A.discuss what good writings should be likeB.show her reflection on humanity in her ageC.express her eagerness to learn writing skillsD.stress the effects of her grandfather on her life38.For two months,I have been trying to decide who makes the best ice cream.I havenarrowed it down to my four favorite manufacturers:Randolph Farms,Goodies,Disco,and Twinkle.Let's start with Randolph Farms.Randolph Farms makes very good ice cream.They have lots of different flavors,but this doesn't really matter to me.That's because I always get coffee flavor.They make the best coffee ice cream in the world.I've never had hot coffee (the drink)but people tell me that Randolph Farms coffee ice cream tastes just like the real thing.Also ,Randolph Farms uses all naturalingredients to make their ice cream.This is a good idea,I think.Second,we have Goodies.Goodies makes excellent ice cream.Like Randolph Farms ,Goodies uses all natural ingredients.They only make three differentflavors-strawberry,vanilla,and chocolate- but they make them very well.Thestrawberry is amazing.Every bite of it reminds me of the strawberries that I used to pick behind my old house.The vanilla is wonderful.It is very smooth and has a refreshing ,creamy taste.The chocolate is outstanding.It is made with real cocoa beans from Bolivia.I didn't know where Bolivia is so I decided to look for it on a map.Afterhunting a while,I discovered that it is in South America! That's a long way to go to get cocoa,so it must be good.I would say that the only drawback to Goodies ice cream is that they only make three different flavors.Third,we have Disco.Disco ice cream is okay.They don't have many good flavors .Actually,the only Disco flavor I like is Bubblegum.It is vanilla ice cream with little chunks of bubblegum in it.After you eat the ice cream,you can blow bubbles with the gum.That's pretty fun.Finally,there is Twinkle.Twinkle ice cream is ordinary.The only good thing about Twinkle is that it is relatively inexpensive.You can buy a whole carton of twinkle ice cream for ﹩4.50.According to the passage,the author likes Randolph Farms ice cream because it ______ .A.is all naturalB.is made in BoliviaC.comes in many flavorsD.is inexpensiveIn the author's point of view,the only disadvantage of Goodies ice cream is ______ .A.cheap ingredientsB.expensive priceC.ordinary qualityD.a lack of flavorsIn paragraph 3,the underlined sentence "That's a long way to go to get cocoa,so it must be good." implies that ______ .A.Goodies loses money on sales of chocolate ice creamB.Bolivia makes the best cocoa in the worldC.things that are hard to get must be of high qualityD.cocoa from the United States is not very goodAccording to the passage,the author would most likely agree that ______ .A.each manufacturer has its strengths and weaknessesB.the best manufacturers are the ones with the most flavors C.Goodies is certainly not the best manufacturer,as they only have three flavors D.each manufacturer is good for different reasonsIf the author did decide that one manufacturer is best,which one would he or she probably choose?______A.Randolph Farms.B.Goodies.C.Disco.D.Twinkle.39.Smartphones have been blamed for everything from taking drivers' attention away fromdriving to keeping people on the sofa scrolling (滚屏)videos.But the smartphone that seems to be everywhere could just as easily increase physical activity if it pushes its owner's buttons in the right way.New research shows that making social connections through activity-tracking apps gets people to move more.And a separate study on this summer's "Pokemon Go"phenomenon shows that the smartphone game got players to take thousands more steps than usual.T ogether,the studies show the potential for smartphones to push a range of people to be more active.People who linked with friends on the activity-tracking app increase their steps by 400 a day on average over the next week,compared with people who made no socialconnections,according to Tim Althoff and two other computer scientists at Stanford University.The effect of social connections declined,but remained significant for five months before the numbers fell back even with users who made no connections.Such insights show the promise of smartphones and games to help with one of the most stubborn public health problems-that even people who want to be active have trouble staying active.An NBA videogame,for example,gives players extra powers in the game if they reach a step goal in real life.The app "Zomies,Run!" uses audio stories to pushpeople to run more or run faster.Still,there is room for growth;Only about 4% of all health apps use "gamification," such as point-scoring or competition,according to a study published in October in BM] Open."Gamification is actually quite closely linked with behavior changetechniques," says Dr Elizabeth Ann Edwards,the study's lead author and a doctor and researcher at Queen MaryUniversity of London.What does the author think of smartphones?______A.They lead to people's lack of physical activity.B.They do harm to human relationships.C.They can have videogames more interesting.D.They can involve their users in more exercise.According to "Pokemon Go" phenomenon,smartphone users become more active because ______ .A.they have more social connectionsB.they get extra powers in lifeC.the games increase physical activityD.a life goal has been set step by stepWho are most likely to exercise more?______A.Video watchers on the sofa.B.Smartphone game lovers.C.People with no social connections.D.People with trouble staying active.How does the author try to argue the ease of smartphones?______A.By showing the results of some researches.B.By explaining the functions of smartphones.C.By giving vivid description of some games.D.By analyzing the causes of public health problems.What would be the best title for the passage?______A.Smartphones:to Push You to Be More ActiveB.Smartphones:to Take Away Your Valuable TimeC.Smartphones:to Make Your Life EasierD.Smartphones:to Keep You in a Good Mood40.Nathan and Madison Donovan were in the market for a car to drive so she could beginworking at a downtown call center.Nathan has been unable to work since breaking his back in a car accident several years ago,and since the bus system in Moncton,New Brunswick doesn't run at night,Madison needed the car to go back to work and get the small family out of social assistance.When they found an online loan company,they applied for a car loan of﹩7,000.The company required ﹩600 as collateral

couple's calls went unanswered.Heartbroken,they contacted CBC News telling their story as a means of preventing other families from making the same mistake.Fortunately,their willingness to save others "from the scam (骗局)ended up paying off;A man named Denis LeBlanc had been in the middle of trying to sell his 2007 Volkswagen Jetta when he heard Nathan' s story on the radio.Denis and his wife had been trying to sell the car for at least ﹩3,700,but they hadonly received several lowball(低报价)offers from online buyers.By that time,they had already been considering simply giving the car away to charity - so when they heard about Nathan's situation,they knew just what to do.Nathan was hesitant to visit a stranger giving away a perfectly good car,but when he showed up,the LeBlancs were true to their word.With great gratitude,Nathansimply got in the Jetta and drove away.The good deed had entirely changed his family's fortunes for the better.LeBlanc,meanwhile,was able to teach his kids a valuable lesson abouthelping others who are less fortunate.What happened to Nathan in the car accident several years ago?(no more than 5 words)______Why did Nathan and Madison tell their story to CBC News?(no more than 10 words)______What did Denis LeBlanc intend to do after receiving lowball offers for his car from online buyers?(no more than 10 words)______What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean?(no more than 10 words)______Would you give away your valuable things to less fortunate people?Please explain.(no more than 20

is和that,剩余两部分加起来应该为一个完整的句子,否则强调句型不成立.见到It is开头的句子,可以假设其为强调句型,用that代入,然后去掉it is和that,剩余部分构成完整的句子则强调句型成立,故选B.当我到家的时候,我才意识到帮助了陷入麻烦的人的感觉是多么美好啊.本题考查强调句型,被强调部分为时间状语,其结构为It is+时间状语+that+剩余部分.15.【答案】D【解析】答案:D根据"but actually the weather forecast has removed ourworry"可知,明天不会下雨,故此处应表示与将来事实相反的假设,因此If从句的谓语部分应使用should+动词原形,故选D---我很担心这次运动会,你认为它被会推迟吗?---如果明天下雨的话.但是实际上,天气预报已经消除了我们的担忧.本题考查了情态动词在虚拟条件句中的用法.在虚拟条件句中,当表示与将来事实相反的假设时,If从句的谓语部分可以是一般过去时形式或were
