Chances are that you don’t. You probably think the music that they like is old and boring and that the songs on your playlist are muchcooler. But scientists found that people’s music taste changes as time goes by. So it is likely that your own musical preferences will follow a similar path to your parents’, whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality (个性) are the only reasons for different music choices. But researchers at the University of Cambridge noticed that as people enter into different age groups, their social environment changes, and so does their music taste. There are some musical periods that people go through in their life.The first period comes in the teenage years, during which people like strong music such as punk and rock, because teenagers tend to be aggressive or want to be independent.But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyles change they want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become fonder of contemporary music, such as pop and R&.B, which is usually uplifting and danceable.When middle age comes, most people have settled down. During this period, people prefer music, such as jazz and classical, as well as music like country, folk and blues.As for old people, they prefer old songs in their childhoods. They generally listen to relaxing music, such as country music and jazz music. But you must be questioning. “Aren’t there old people who are still interested in or even crazy about rock music?” Of course there are. But their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. At that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youth.4. What do young people usually think of the songs their parents enjoy?A. They are actually less cool.B. They are worth listening to.C. They are especially serious.D. They are hard to understand.5. How many musical periods are there that people go through in their life?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.6. People who want to make friends mostly prefer ________.A. jazz musicB. country musicC. rock musicD. pop music7. What is the best title for the text?A. People Have Different Opinions on MusicB. People Listen to Music for the Same ReasonC. People’s Taste in Music Changes with TimeD. People’s Lifestyle Can Be Changed by MusicCChina's Mars probe Tianwen-1 successfully landed on the surface of the red planet on May 15, 2021, leaving a Chinese footprint on Mars for the first time and in its first attempt, becoming the only other nation besides theUSto get such an achievement. The Tianwen-1 probe touched down at its pre-selected landing area in the southern part of Utopia Planitia, a wide plain on Mars, at 7:18 a.m.(Beijing Time), after three months scanning the whole planet on Mars docking orbit, the China National Space Administration(CNSA) announced.Tianwen-1, including an orbiter, a lander and a rover, was launched from the 'Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the coast of southernChinas islandprovinceofHainanon July 23, 2020. It was the first step inChina's planetary exploration of the solar system, with the aim of completing orbiting, landing and roving on the red planet in one mission. According to the administration, the country's first Martian probe will conduct scientific investigations about the Martian soil, environment, atmosphere as well as water.China's planetary exploration program has been named “Tianwen”, which was named after a long poem by the famous ancient poet Qu Yuan. The name represents the Chinese nation's willpower in pursuing truth, the country's cultural inheritance of its understanding of nature and universe, as well as the unending exploration in science and technology.China's first Mars rover has been named “Zhurong”, which means the god of fire in an ancient Chinese story. The name indicates Chinese people's blessing for the rover to light the flame ofChina's planetary exploration. The rover has six wheels and four solar panels, and carries 13 scientific instruments. According to the CNSA, Zhurong has started its scientific exploration after moving from the landing platform onto the Red Planet's surface on May 22.More than 40 Mars missions have been launched since the 1960s, but only about half have succeeded.

Tianwen-1 represented the god of fire.C. Tianwen-1 successfully landed on Mars.D. Tianwen-1 was launched from Wenchang.DIn many countries of the world, people can confidently tell youthe meaning of their town or city, but most people who live inManchester,OxfordorBirminghamwould not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living inBritainwere Celts. Even the word “Britain" is Celtic (凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra". This is why there are so many place names inEnglandwhich end in "-chester" or “-caster"Manchester, for example.The Romans never reachedWalesorScotland, and many placenames there are Celtic. For example,Welsh place names that begin with “Llan" come from the Celtic word for "church".After the Romans leftBritain, it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is nowGermanyandHolland. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham" or “-ton". Some got their names from the leader of the village.SoBirminghamfor example, means "Beormund's village”The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (village on a hill)——a good place to build a village and Moreton (“village by a lake”)where floods could make life hard. Place names that end in “-ford" (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Finally, in 1066EnglandbecameNorman—theNormansgave us the place name "grange", which means farm.And how aboutLondon? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants (居民). People once believed that theUnited Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.12. The origin of British place names is unfamiliar to many local people because ofA. the death of local languagesB. the long lost history of the namesC. their lack of interest in itD. the frequent changes to the names13. According to the article,Stratfordis most likely a town .A. on a hillB. near a castleC. beside a riverD. with a church14. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants inBritain?A. The Celts—The Romans—TheNormans—The Anglo SaxonsB. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansC. The Romans—The Celts—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansD. The Romans―The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—TheNormans15. What doesLondonmean in Celtic?A. RiverB. LondiniumC. LudD. Castle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。

Antarctic ice is as large as France．B. Dr．Craig Stewart conducted the research alone．C. RIS is part of the Antarctic ice sheet．D. More than 100 ice shelves disappeared．9.Which of the following causes the RIS to melt faster？______A. Size of ice sheet．B. Higher surface ocean temperatures．C. Ocean salinity．D. Ocean currents．10.What is the writer's attitude towards the future of the Ross Ice Shelf？______A. Positive．B. Concerned．C. Optimistic．D. Cold．11.What does the passage mainly talk about？______A. RIS is moving faster and faster．B. Sea levels are rising ten times faster．C. Glaciers fall more frequently these years．D. Heated surrounding oceans speed up RIS melting．DSprint users hoping to take advantage of the company's coming 5G network now have a month to look forward to：May．At the MWC trade show in Barcelona Sprint announced Monday that it will turn on itsnext-generation wireless network in May with customers in Chicago，Atlanta，Dallas and Kansas City planned to be the first to get access to the 5G service．The company plans to launch （启动）5G in Houston，Los Angeles，New York City，Phoenix and Washington during the first half of 2019．It's unclear how extensive the initial coverage will be in each of the launch cities．Sprint says that the New York launch will be focused on the "nearly 30 square miles covering Midtown and lower Manhattan" while the Dallas launch will cover "approximately 230 square miles covering the greater Dallas Fort Worth area，" suggesting that some cities will be better covered than others．In addition to announcing its first 5G cities，Sprint also displayed a new device （装置）from HTC called the HTC 5G Hub．Unlike the LG phone，the 5G Hub is designed to be placed inside your home as an alternative to broadband，functioning as a mobile hotspot that allowsfor up to 20 devices to connect and tap into Sprint's 5G network．With 5G's ability to offer faster speeds and lower delays，Sprint says this device can be used for not just streaming 4K content to a TV or connecting to the Internet but also for playing games online．The device also has a Gigabit Ethernet （千兆以太网）port for plugging in devices as well as a 5-inch screen．As with the LG phone，however，no exact pricing or release date was announced beyond a vague "this spring．""This Hub is like a ‘Swiss Army Knife' with multiple tools that will quickly make it vital and universal for connected homes and small businesses，" Sprint CEO Michel Combes said in a news release．"It uses the speed of our upcoming 5G network to drive content sharing，gaming，entertainment and more．"12.What can we learn about the Sprint's 5G launching？______A.

VietnamBMy violin is like a soul mate that whispers words of wisdom to me．Together，we've gone through both tears and happiness．About 12 years ago，I made acquaintance with it following an order from my mom．Many hours of boredom were spent practicing it．And to make things worse，the disappointment inmy teacher's eyes as I played the wrong notes was like an invisible hammer，striking on my heart．One day，I finally decided：I hate it!By chance，things changed when I was seven．I was at home lying on the sofa，wondering how those famous violinists dealt with this terrible dilemma．I searched online for the E-minor Concerto，a well-known violin work by German composer Felix Mendelssohn，and listened to it．A beautiful and mysterious sound came from the violin as the bow moved across it．It was like the music slid over the flowers，rose up，and started to fill the air．The violin's voice woke up the sun，made the trees green，and freshened the air．As the music changed，the sky turned back to gray．A gloomy shade covered the grass as all the sunshine disappeared．I could hear children crying and men shouting．It was like an invisible claw had grabbed my heart tightly，making it unable to beat．That glorious day set off my passion and interest in violin - I grabbed mine and never let it go．Before the memories faded，I stared at my instrument．Without hesitating，I picked it up，rosined（用松香擦）the bow，and began to play．Peace filled my heart．My violin has been by my side for 12 years．When I feel happy，an energetic tune makes it even better；when I'm deep in sorrow，a peaceful tune washes it away，when I'm walking on air，feeling especially pleased with my achievements，solemn（庄严的）tunes calm me down．Gradually，it has become a part of my life．My violin，shall I compare you to a summer's day？4.What further contributed to the author's dislike of violin-playing？______A.

Musical soul mate-violin．CI look around and can't recognize where I am．It seems familiar but distant．I see my friends gather by a stage where music is playing and I run over．As I begin running towards them，they become further and further away．I keep calling them，but no one hears me．I start hearing a distant alarm-like sound and I am transported away．I woke up in a daze sitting in my bed．"Oh，it was only a dream，" I said to myself．I have always had vivid and intense dreams．Itfeels like I haven't even slept because I have been living out my dreams during my sleep．Today，dreaming is being studied even more than ever．Some say that dreams are how your receptors make sense of random thoughts while you sleep．Some say that you can't dream of a face you have never seen before，so everyone you see in your dreams you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another．Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing．A lot of people say that they have dreams about being chased．A common interpretation of the "being chased" dream is that you are feeling threatened．Some dream interpretation websites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way．Another dream that is often experienced is flying．This dream has a much more positive interpretation，which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turned sour or a job you hate．Unfortunately，you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within 10 minutes，you usually forget 90 percent of it．Dreamologists，people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams，suggest if you want to try to remember your dreams you should keep a journal beside your bed．Write down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later．8.What does the author think of his dreams？______A.

To help us get out of the tense dreams．11.Where is the passage probably taken from？______A. A news report．B. A fiction book．C. An ad website．D. A science newspaper．DA new study shows that rising levels of planet-warming gases may reduce important nutrients in food crops．Researchers studied the effects of one such gas-carbon dioxide-on rice．The researchers grew rice plants in a controlled environment．They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century．They found that the resulting rice crops had lower than normal levels of vitamins，minerals and protein．The researchers said the effects of planet-warming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries．These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets，they noted．In the experiment，scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in China and Japan．They pumpedcarbon dioxide gas over the plants in an effort to create the atmosphere of the future．Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had，on average，13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein．The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc（锌）an rice grown under normal conditions．However，vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average．The results are bad news，"especially for the nutrition of the poorer population inless-developed countries，" said the University of Tokyo's Kazuhiko Kobayashi，who helped to write the report．That includes about 600 million people in Indonesia，Cambodia，Myanmar，Bangladesh，Laos and other nations，mainly in Southeast Asia，the report said．One of the scientists is Sam Myers of Harvard University in the American state of Massachusetts．He said that findings like this are an example of the surprises climate change create．" My concern is there are many more surprises to come，" he said．Myers noted that pollution，loss of some species，destruction of forests，and other human activities are likely to produce unexpected problems．He said that you cannot completely change all the natural systems that living organisms have grown to depend on over millions of years without having effects come back to affect our own health．The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change．One way，Kobayashi said，is grow different forms of rice that have shown to be more resistant to higher carbon dioxide levels．12.Which county would be influenced most by planet-warming gases according to the text？______A.

Poetry by Heart．BMost of us might only begin to think about dinner in the late afternoon：What should I make today？But Jelena Petrovic begins to think about her big meal early each morning．After morning tea，she and her husband，Milan，begin their plans for a traditional Serbian dish．The cooking method they use probably comes from Jelena's mother or grandmother．Each recipe uses local foods found in Serbian markets．Milan goes to the market to get the food they need．And the 69-year-old Jelena makes plans for how she will explain the cooking process to her 150，000 followers on YouTube．Once she is ready，Jelena films her cooking show from a small kitchen table．Milan holds the camera．Jelena has many years of cooking experience at home．Ten years ago，she started an online program，where she shared recipes and cooking suggestions for meat，soup，bread，sweet treats and more．Her number of followers grew over time．She decided to start a blog and began also making videos she filmed with her mobile phone．Today，her videos on YouTube have over 50 million views．Last year，"Granny's Kitchen" was named one of the Top 50 YouTube channels in Serbia．Now her YouTube channel takes up much of her day．She works from her small kitchen and home office．Colorful plants and flowers fill the room．A bright cloth covers the table where she works．She says she gets tired from cooking long hours each day．But，she said，"My viewers wait for a new recipe every morning．If I am late，they will ask if I am well or what is happening．"Often，her viewers write that the recipes bring back happy memories of their childhood．"My recipes are all local，traditional home-food recipes，" Jelena said．"I make things my mother or grandmother used to make．"4.What is special about Jelena's dealing with dinner？______A.

They are shaped like jewel cases．B. They are heavily painted in red．C. They are favored as a form of art．D. They are valued by the rich．9.Why have contemporary artists continued the tradition of egg painting？______A. Because eggs serve as a symbol of the coming of spring．B. Because eggs provide a source of protein in winter's end．C. Because eggs provide a unique surface to paint on．D. Because eggs reflect the anxieties of people today．10.Which of the following best explains "vulnerability" underlined in paragraph 5？______A. Delicateness．B. Technique．C. Fear．D. Anxiety．11.What is the main idea of the text？______A. Egg painting art preserves traditional and popular symbols．B. Different cultures have different ways of honoring the egg．C. Ukrainian egg painting art appeals to contemporary artists．D. Egg painting art continues and develops in pace with time．DImagine you enter a car with no steering wheel，no brake or accelerator pedals （踏板）．Under a voice-activated command，you say an address．"The fastest route will take us 15.3 minutes．Should I take it？" You say "yes" and you are on your way．The car responds and starts moving all by itself．All you have to do is to sit back and relax．How strange would it be if，one day in the future，everyone had such a car？No crazy driving，no quarrels，no cutting in；traffic laws would be respected and driving much safer．On the other hand，imagine the cost savings for local police enforcement （强制执行）and town budgets without all those speeding and parking tickets．A new technology has the potential to change modern society thoroughly．There's no question that self-driving vehicles could be an enormous benefit．The potential for safer cars means accident statistics would drop：some 94% of road accidents in the U．S．involve human error．Older drivers and visually- or physically-disabled people would gain a new level of freedom．Maintaining safe speeds and being electric，self-driving cars would sharply reduce pollution levels and dependency on non-renewable fuels．Roads would be quieter，people safer．But we must also consider the impact of the new technology on those who now depend on driving for their living．According to the U．S．Department of Labor，in May 2015 there were 505，560 registered school bus drivers．The American Trucking Association lists approximately 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U．S．The companies developing self-driving vehicles should be partnering with state and federal authorities to offer retraining for this massive workforce，many of whom will be displaced by the new technology．New technologies will，and should，be developed．This is how society moves forward．However，progress can't be one-sided．It is necessary for the companies and state agencies involved to consider the moral consequences of these potential changes to build a better future for all．12.What would be the effect of the wide use of driverless cars？______A. More policemen would inspect the streets．B. People would never feel angry about the traffic．C. It would save local governments a lot of money．D. Traffic regulations would be a thing of the past．13.How would the elderly and the disabled benefit from driverless cars？______A. They would get rid of air pollution．B. They could enjoy greater mobility．C. They would suffer no road accidents．D. They could go anywhere they want．14.What would be the negative effect of driverless cars？______A. The conflict between labor and management would sharpen．B. Many drivers would have to find new ways of earning a living．C. Drivers would have a hard time adapting to new road conditions．D. The gap between various departments of society would be widened．15.What does the author suggest businesses and the government do？______A. Enable everyone to benefit from new technologies．B. Keep pace with technological developments．C. Make new technologies affordable to everyone．D. Popularize the use of new technologies and devices．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共50.0分）Artists might have sunk into a state where they forgot themselves，didn't need to think and lost track of time，and inspirations would "just flow out"．Such a state of total involvement and effortless concentration is called "flow"．(1) ．It is accompanied by physical changes such as deepened breathing and slow heart beats．The benefits of being in the flow state stretch beyond the experience itself．Flow is associated with subjective happiness，satisfaction with life and inner peace．At work，it's linked to productivity，motivation and responsibility．(2) ．In fact，we all can experience flow whenever we are fully devoted to our work or hobbies or relationships，in mountains and cities alike．If you don't experience flow every day，here are ways to trigger （触发）it．Create best conditionsAvoid noisy environments and opportunities for interruptions．(3) ，so you'll need to experiment to find what works best for you．(4) You need to engage in activities that are meaningful，that you find challenging and for which you have the skills required to come out as winners．The level of difficulty should also be just right - not so easy that you find yourself bored，but not so hard that you get stressed．Stay highly aware of yourselfPractice staying highly aware of your breath，your presence，your thoughts and your actions，and you will live fully each second of the present and be completely yourself．Gradually the world around melts away and what you are doing becomes worth doing for its own sake．(5) ．A．Decide on a proper activityB．Flow is more than a state of mindC．Fortunately，flow is not unique to artistsD．Flow is a happy accident when it happensE．Then you will be already in the flow state before you know itF．The most desirable environment varies from person to personG．Take whatever calm you can get，be yourself and the observer of yourself16.

高考英语模拟试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AThe earth is a mysterious place that never stops to amaze．There are many places completely unimaginable．The incapability to understand the real story behind some of these phenomena draws many people．Blood Falls，AntarcticaHow is it that the coldest and driest place on the planet has a blood-red waterfall pouring down slowly into the McMurdo Dry Valleys，some of the most extreme desert lands on Earth？What causes the mysterious flow was only recently discovered in a study．Scientists believed for many years red algae（红藻）gave it the unusual color．But now research has shown that iron oxide（氧化物）is responsible for it．The waterfall even contains strange bacterial life forms．Magnetic Hill，Moneton，New BrunswickBe very careful if you choose to drive to the bottom of this hill．Stories about what happens there have been around since early 1900s．As impossible as it sounds，your car will start to roll uphill．"And it doesn't just work on cars-vans，trucks and even tour buses roll upward．" according to Tourism New Brunswick．Racetrack Playa，Death Valley，CaliforniaLocated in a remote valley between the Cottonwood and Last Chance Ranges，Racetrack Playa is a place of real beauty and mystery．The Racetrack is a dry lakebed，best known for its strange moving rocks．It looks like they "sailed" through the valley．Although no one has actually seen the rocks move，the long moving tracks left behind in the mud surface of the Playa prove their activity．The most logical explanation so far is that ice forms covering the stones，causing them to move．1.What's special about Racetrack Playa？______A. The lakebed there is red．B. The rocks there can move．C. There is no living creature．D. The rocks there can make sound．2.Which of the following is true？______A.

To introduce distinguished placesD. To uncover mysterious phenomena．BMy brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister's bureau（衣橱）and picked out a wonderful skirt．"Jan bought this the first time we went to New York，at least eight or nine years ago．She never wore it．She was saving it for a special occasion．" Well，I guess this is the occasion．He took the skirt from me and put it on the bed．His hands touched the soft material for a moment，and then he shut the drawer and turned to me，"Don't ever save anything for a special occasion．Every day you're alive is a special occasion．"I'm still thinking about his words，and they've changed my attitude to life．I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time on committee meetings．Whenever possible，life should be a pattern of experience to enjoy，not suffer．I'm trying to recognize these moments now and treasure them．"Some day" and "one of these days" are being lost from my vocabulary．If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing，I want to see and hear and do it now．I'm not sure what my sister would have done if she had known she wouldn't have tomorrow．I think she would have called family members and a few close friends．She might have calleda few former friends to apologize and mend her fences for past things．I think she would have gone out for a Chinese dinner，her favorite food．If I knew that my hours were limited，those little things left undone would make me angry．Angry because I put off seeing good friends whom I was going to get in touch with some day．Angry and sorry because I didn't tell my husband and daughter often enough how much I truly love them．I'm trying very hard not to put off，hold back，or save anything that would add laughter to our lives．And every morning when I open my eyes，I tell myself that every day，every minute，every breath truly，is…a gift worth cherishing．4.What kind of person do you think Jan is？______A. mean and conservativeB. active and confidentC. economical and introvertD. indifferent and distant5.Which of the following is not the writer's attitude to life？______A.

People are encouraged to be hard on themselves for a bright life．C. People are told to get rid of being angry and sorry in life．D. People are persuaded to care for themselves more than others．CEven as we humans keep polluting the world．Nature somehow keeps finding a way to help correct our mistakes．First，there is a molecule（分子）that helps reduce global warming．Now，a team of Yale students may have discovered something equally amazing - plasticeating fungi（真菌）．Pestalotiopsis microspora（微孢子）is the only known fungus to be able to survive only on plastic．The plastic is so hard that it takes thousands of years to break down on its own．The best part is that these fungi can do the job even in an oxygenless environment，which means that it could work perfectly even at the bottom of a landfill．The discovery was the result of an effort between three Yale students who were part of the Rainforest Expedition and Laboratory Program，allowing a selected group of students to visit Ecuador's rainforest and seek out fungi and bacteria that live inside plants without harming them，which could hold medical or scientific promise．The samples are then brought back to the University's lab where they do wide testing to see if they are of any practical or scientific use．In 2008，a student named Pria Anand gathered specimens for one purpose - to find a microbe that could cat plastic．That's when she came across the Pestalotiopsis microspora．Though she did show the unbelievable characteristics of the fungi，she was unable to get the desired results by the time she graduated，in 2010．Luckily for he Jonathan Russell，a 2011graduating student，picked up right where she had left off．By combining her work with research performed by another of Pria's classmates，Jeffery Huang，he was able to separate the enzyme（酶）in the fungus that is the most effective in breaking down plastic．Hopefully，experts will take it up from here and make the project a reality and help reduce plastic!8.What is the main character of Pestaltiopsis microspora？______A. It helps reduce global warming．B. It needs less oxygen to produce．C. It can break down plastic．D. It can be buried in a landfill．9.The underlined sentence in the passage may mean ______ ．A. Jonathan continued to study what Pria failedB. Jonathan drove to pick up Pria when she got offC. Jonathan came across Pria at an unexpected placeD. Jonathan invited Pria to go on with her research10.What can we know from the passage？______A. There are some kind of fungi that can eat plasticB. These fungi can only work in an oxygen environmentC. The discovery was made by chance．D. A group of students made the discovery that fungi can break down plastic11.The best title for the passage may be ______ ．A. Fungi Love PlasticB. Plastic Is Eaten by FungiC. Fungi Are Eaten by PlasticD. Fungi Are Hidden in PlasticDIt's normal for teens to want to stay connected to friends and social circles，but in the middle of the night？The Journal of Youth Studies recently published new research indicating that one in five teens from 12 to 15 regularly wake during the night to have some form of social media．Not surprisingly，the research also indicated that these social night owls were three times more likely than their friends to feel tired at school and that girls were more likely than boys to be called to office．The blue light produced by cell phones，tablets and computers signals the brain to stayawake，so it's easy to see why a teen might be up all might．A 2016 study in Psychological Science noted the same brain circuits（脑回路）that are activated by eating chocolate and winning money are activated when teens see large numbers of "likes" on their posts or those of their peers．Besides not catching enough snaps，by interrupting their sleep cycle，teens may never fully engage in REM sleep（快速动眼睡眠），the deepest stage of sleep that may be responsible for brain development and learning．Considering about 72 percent of children from 6 to 17 sleep with some electronic media in their bedrooms，parents need to set boundaries sooner rather than later．"Providing access to devices and thus to social media is a privilege that children can earn and also lose，" Janie Feldman，a psychologist who treats sleep disorders，reminds parents that，"temporarily removing privileges can have important impact so long as the means of earning back the privileges is clear．Teens and parents should discuss and agree upon terms of use，timing，and access．Teenagers are most cooperative when they agree to the rules，so including them in defining rules makes for very effective parenting．12.What does the new research indicate about teens from 12to 15？______A. Some of them rely on social media for homework．B. Some of them share their sleep experience online．C. Some of them often use cell phones or tablets at midnight．D. Some of them surf online for ways to protect animals．13.How will teens' brain react when they see many "likes" on their posts？______A. It will become too active for the teens to go to sleep．B. It will inspire the teens to post something more online．C. It will promote the teens for some restful time．D. It will promote the teens to earn money with their posts．14.What advice does Janie Feldman give parents of teens？______A. Forbid their children from using social media at night．B. Get the children to cam the right to social media with housework．C. Never give the children access to social media if they break a rule．D. Give back children's media access when they correct their errors．15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage？______A. How to Win Back the Trust of Parents．B.

高考英语模拟试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AThe Harvard Pre-College Program is a nice experience for high school students．Alongside peers（同辈）from around the world，you'll be introduced to college life as you attend classes，live on campus，and enjoy fun outings and activities．◆Learning without limitsBiology，physics，law，writing and philosophy - these are just a few of the 30-plus courses you can choose from in each session．In our noncredit classes，we set aside grades so that you can fully commit to your growth as a well-rounded student．Class sizes typically range from14 to 18 students to encourage interactive learning．◆Living at HarvardWhen you attend the Pre-College Program，you'll live in a historic undergraduate house，near Harvard Square．You will be with your fellow Pre-College students，resident directors，and proctors who provide support．You'll also enjoy meals in one of Harvard's dining halls，which are a short walk from Harvard Yard and provide many options for a variety of dietary needs．◆Thriving outside the classroomThe summer Pre-College Program offers many mentally challenging co-curricular（补充课程的）activities beyond the classroom．With faculty and Harvard-affiliated experts，you will have the opportunity to participate in workshops on topics like the psychology ofcolor-blindness，classic literature from around the world and science of happiness．From our Cambridge scavenger hunt to a trip to the Sand Sculpting Festival at America's first public beach，there's no shortage of fun activities in the Pre-College Program．1.What do we know about the 30-plus courses？______A. You can only choose five of them．B. They provide credits for students．C. You should set aside other subjects．D. They assist your full development．2.Where can you enjoy meals during the program？______A. Near Harvard Square．B. Close to Harvard Yard．C. In one of the workshops．D. In an undergraduate house．3.What is the purpose of the passage？______A. To advertise meals．B. To comment on an activity．C. To introduce a program．D. To recommend courses．BIn 2011，the old style Malta buses were taken off the road and replaced by modern vehicles．Most of the old buses were deserted，a few were sold，and about 100 of them were put into storage in the hope of showing them in a museum at some stage．A pre-2011 visit to Malta wouldn't have been complete without a ride on one of the colorful buses．Until 1973 you could tell the destination of the bus just by looking at its color - Sliema was green and white，Zabbar was red and white with a blue stripe（条纹）etc．．Later，the buses all had numbers．For a while，they were all painted green and white before the ‘final' orange，yellow and white．In their prime，walking around the Triton fountain at the Valletta bus station，you would have found it very difficult to see two buses of exactly the same design．Most of them had locally built bodies．On the front of the buses carried names like Dodge，Leyland，Bedford etc．．You were equally likely to find football pennants（锦旗）and the like decorating the cabs．Real bus experts would have recognized that these were there mainly for decorative reasons，and were seldom an accurate reflection of the vehicle's origins．Nowadays much more modern buses are to be found at the Floriana bus station．They are more environmentally friendly and possibly even more comfortable than the older types．However，I miss the old buses．I remember，when you boarded your bus，you had to prepare the correct change to pay the usually bad-tempered driver as you got on．If you were seated anywhere near the front，you would have noticed that most drivers sat well to the right of their steering wheel．The reason for this，as any Maltese would tell you，was to leave space for their pet to sit alongside them．I wonder where the pet sits these days．4.What makes a pre-2011 visit to Malta special according to Paragraph 2？______A. Traveling in colorful buses．B. Using buses with stripes．C. Painting buses bright colors．D. Telling destinations by different colors．5.Which of the following best explains "prime" underlined in Paragraph 3？______A. Painful time．B. Exciting time．C. Moment of fantasy．D. Moment of glory．6.What can we learn about Malta buses when they were popular？______A. They were of the same pattern．B. The decorations reflected their origin．C. Most were uniquely designed．D. Only football pennants decorated the cabs．7.How would the author feel about the old style Malta buses？______A. Comfortable．B. Environment-friendly．C. Safe．D. Memorable．CParents tend to favour children of one sex in certain situations — or so evolutionary biologists tell us. A new study used colored backpack sales data to show that parental wealth may influence spending on sons different from daughters.In 1973 biologist Robert Trivers and computer scientist Dan Willard published a paper suggesting that parents invest(投入)more resources, such as food and effort, in male children when times are good, and in female children when times are bad. According to theTrivers-Willard hypothesis(假说), a son given lots of resources can become a gentleman — but parents with few resources tend to invest them in daughters, who generally find it easier to be a fair maiden.Studying parental investment after birth is difficult, however. The new study looked for a standard of measurement of such investment that met several criteria: it shouldn't be affected by sex differences in the need for resources; it should measure investment rather than outcomes; and it should be objective.Study author Shige Song, a sociologist at Queens College, City University of New York, examined spending on pink and blue backpacks purchased in China in 2015 from a large retailer, JD．com. He narrowed the data to about 5,000 bags: blue backpacks bought by families known to have at least one boy and pink ones bought by families known to have at least one girl. The results showed that wealthier families spent more on blue than pink backpacks —suggesting greater investment in sons. Poorer families spent more on pink packs than blue ones. The findings were published in Evolution and Human Behavior.Song's evidence for the Trivers-Willard hypothesis is “indirect” but “pretty convincing,”says Rosemary Hopcroft, a sociologist at the. University of North Carolina at Charlotte, who was not connected with the new study. Hopcroft reported in 2016 that U. S. fathers withhigh-status occupations were more likely to send their sons to private school than their daughters, while fathers with lower-status jobs more often enrolled their female children. Although the new study does not prove the families were buying the blue backpacks for boys and pink ones for girls, Hopcroft notes that“it's a clever and interesting paper, and it's a rather unusual use of big data.”8.What does the writer intend to do in Paragraph 2?A. Introduce an earlier study.B. Identify children’s needs.C. Assess the influence of a study.D. Explore into parental investment.9.What offers a challenge for the new study?A. The investment meeting several criteria.B. The measurement of eventual outcomes.C. Different demands for resources between sexes.D. Consistent standards in measuring parental investment.10.What can be learned from Song's research?A. The new study was done in 2015.B. Big data was sampled for research.C.

He's a talented professor．B. He's an experienced manager．C. He's a successful founder．D. He's Chairman of Alibaba．13.Where does Ma's legacy lie in？______A. Becoming a successful innovative founder．B. Casting doubt on traditional succession plan．C. Providing creative answers to succession problems．D. Representing trends towards non-family-run companies．14.What seems to be the recipe for the company's future success？______A. Trust-building methods．B. The "architecture of trust"．C. A culture of talent development．D. The latest successful innovations．15.What can be a suitable title for the text？______A. Prefer Qualities to Blood．B. Train a Potential Successor．C. Favor Genes over Talents．D.

高考英语全真模拟卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AThe skin under the eyes is delicate，which is why it sometimes appears sunken and has darker coloring than elsewhere on the face．Aging and health problems play a role in sunken eyes but other factors can contribute，so it may affect younger people as well．DehydrationThe most common cause of sunken eyes is dehydration，or not having enough water in the body．Consuming too much coffee，soda，and prepackaged drinks may increase production of urine（尿液），which may lead to dehydration．Vitamin shortagesShortages of vitamin C，vitamin K，and iron can cause eyes to become sunken．Vitamin C helps with absorbing iron and decreasing bruising（瘀斑），while vitamin K is responsible for blood thickening，causing unhealthy skin．Easy bruising and unhealthy skin will result in sunken eyes．Weight lossMost people tend to lose weight in their face first．Sometimes，the weight loss is sudden enough to make blood vessels（血管）below the eyes easy to see，and the skin clear，producing the appearance of sunken eyes．Sudden weight loss may also cause nutritional shortages，which can lead to sunken eyes．Not enough sleep or por quality sleep can cause sunken eyes and a person's DNA or the habit of smoking can also contribute to sunken eyes．Most cases of sunken eyes relate to the quality of an individual's nutrition and healthy living．When these causes are corrected，sunken eyes can be resolved without further treatment．This means that causes can be avoided or treated in good time to prevent the recurrence of sunken eyes．1.What can we do to prevent dehydration according to the text？______A. Refuse coffee．B. Drink more water．C. Say no to soft drinks．D. Have certain drinks less．2.What will lead to bruising below the eyes？______A. Lack of vitamin K．B. Water shortages．C. Lack of vitamin C．D. Nutritional shortages．3.Which of the following should be avoided for people losing weight？______A. Pale faces．B. Sudden weight loss．C. Clean skin．D. Narrow blood vessels．BIn American countryside，the message we hear is this：Go and get an education．Leave your small town and make something of yourself．Success and opportunity are found elsewhere．Leave．Co．After graduating from a high school in Helena，Arkansas，I did go．I went to Colby College in Maine．I had visited the school ahead of time，so I knew what I was getting myself into．I knew about the difference in weather．I understood the differencein social atmosphere．But I wanted to stretch myself and get out of my comfort zone．And you know what？I absolutely loved my time there．But one thing took me by surprise - the lack of countryside representation．Most of the other students at Colby were from big cities：New York，Boston，Los Angeles，San Francisco…And when I had conversations with these students - in or outside of class - we almost always focused on topics facing large American cities．In my education classes，it was always "urban this" and "urban that"．It was like small town America didn't exist．And this urban interest doesn't just happen in college．I went to an education conference a couple of years ago，and a professor - someone who had been at the forefront of educational reform - was there to deliver a keynote．I was chosen to be part of a small group that got to meet with him．So there we were，five or six of us siting in a room，and I asked him，"What are your thoughts on the state of education in the countryside？" And this man was speechless．I'll never forget that moment．It speaks to a larger truth．Towns like mine are forgotten．This trend of exporting talent and resources to our big cities - this mindset of leaving small towns and never coming back - I don't want to add to that movement．I want to reverse that movement．Now it's my turn to help people younger than me．And you know what？I'm a sixth grade teacher in Helena now．4.What do people in American countryside think of the future of the youth at home？______A. Secure．B. Fragile．C. Promising．D. Bright．5.What did the author find in his college classroom？______A. Students chatted freely．B. Countryside was ignored．C. He was looked down upon．D. Students concentrated on education．6.How would the author feel about the professor's reaction？______A. It's emotional．B. It's natural．C. It's positive．D. It's disappointing．7.What is the author doing now？______A. Teaching in a college．B. Fighting for the movement．C. Working with the professor．D. Devoting himself to his hometown．CAnxiety is a natural response that changed gradually over millions of years to make us more careful and our bodies prepared to flee danger．But feeling anxious because you heard a noise on a dark street isn't the same thing as having an anxiety disorder．"The key thing we look for in the clinic is whether anxiety is interfering（妨碍）with a person's day-to-day life，or causing them a lot of unhappiness，" says Nick Grey of King's College London．To clinical psychologists like Grey，"maladaptive（不恰当的）beliefs" are typical in anxiety disorders and are often used to determine the type of anxiety someone has．In social anxiety disorder，the most common anxiety disorder，you might believe that your face turning red will result in people laughing at you．People with this type of disorder experience constant and great fear before，during and after social events．If you have panic disorder，you might assume that you are having a heart attack if your heartstarts to race．The physical symptoms of anxiety - a pounding heart，difficulty breathing，feeling dizzy - will then come on in a rush．Everyone can experience such panic attacks from time to time，but in panic disorder the attacks are regular and become a source of anxiety themselves．Other maladaptive beliefs are less specific．Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by continuous worries about a range of different events or activities，for at least six months．If you have this condition，the belief driving your anxiety could，for example，be the feeling it's your job to take care of other people，or that you have responsibilities that you must meet at all cost．To decide who to refer for further treatment，doctors might use a tool called the GAD7test．8.Which of the following belongs to an anxiety disorder？______A. Quarreling with parents．B. Getting to school earlier．C. Missing a lunch．D. Knocking on the wall．9.What is social anxiety characterized by？______A. Continuous worries．B. Past experiences．C. Maladaptive beliefs．D. Frequent terrors．10.What will happen to you when you have panic disorder？______A. You can't stand steadily．B. Your face turns red．C. You can't touch anything．D. Your hands feel numb．11.What anxiety disorder occurs more often than others？______A. Generalized anxiety．B. Panic attacks．C. Social anxiety．D. Acute anxiety attacks．DIt’s at this time of the year that marathon recovery, not marathon training, starts to take center stage.Research indicates that the muscle damage from running a marathon can last up to two weeks. The research also indicates that muscle soreness(肌肉酸痛)is not a good indicator of muscular healing. In other words, just because you aren’t sore anymore doesn’t mean that you are fully healed. This is the danger for marathon runners: post-marathon muscular soreness fades after a few days but minor damage within the muscle cells remains. If you return to full training too soon — running more and faster than the tissues are ready for — you risk delaying full recovery and the chance to get ready for your next goal.The solution, it appears, is to recognize(and accept)that the muscles will take a while to heal and to be prepared to take it easy for the first couple of weeks (even longer if you’re particularly sore after your marathon). While the research isn’t very promising when it comes to things to do to reduce soreness and aid healing, a couple of concepts appear to help. First, providing gentle blood flow to the area helps bring healing nutrients into the muscles and also helps to remove waste products and damaged tissue. Walking and gentle massage(按摩)can help, particularly in the first few days after a marathon. Once muscle soreness has significantly reduced (usually two to four days after the race), light jogging can commence. Just be mindful to run very slowly.No runner wants to get super fit and then lose that during the recovery process. But since you must reduce your training load following your marathon, it can be difficult as to how much and how soon to insert running into your post-marathon training.12.When should marathon runners return to full training?A. About half a month after the competition.B. A few days after soreness disappears.C. Before the tissues recover completely.D. Before the next game draws closer.13.How can marathon runners reduce their muscle soreness?A. Through family care.B. By doing gentle exercise.C. Through medical treatment.D. By removing damaged tissue.14.Which of the following best explains “commence” underlined in paragraph 3?A. Fit.B. Heal.C. Start.D. Mend.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Recovery after MarathonB. Soreness with SportsC. Healing Muscle SorenessD. Reducing Training Load二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）When I first came to UK from China at 6，I entered the first grade．(1) ．I saw children throw their left over food into the large trash cans - from half-eaten pizzas to untouched burgers ．I watched them pour their milk into a white bucket．In China，this was a huge no-no in school．We had to finish everything．One day，my first grade teacher announced that we would be having a party and everyone was told to bring something from their country．(2) ．My mom stayed up after her long day of work and made many dumplings．She put them in the fridge and woke up early in the morning to steam them and fry them so they would taste extra fresh when I brought them to school．They smelled great and looked golden brown after they were cooked．I was so excited to share these with my class and teachers．It was placed in the corner of the table next to all the other delicious food．(3) ．One or two kids bravely took a piece and knew what they were because they had it with their parents at a Chinese restaurant．At the end of the party，it was cleanup．My teacher walked up to me and asked，pointing to the dumplings，"Would you like to take these home？" I carefully replied，"No…" (4) ．I thought she was going to share it with other teachers，but immediately after I said that，she threw all the dumplings into the trash and continued cleaning．I was confused；what just happened？(5) ．And today I still witness this frequently in my English fiends．Please eat all your food or take it to go or share it or just get enough so you don't have to throw it away．Thank you．A．In China，"no" usually means "yes"B．I got super excited and told my parentsC．It was very impolite to take your gift homeD．This was the biggest culture shock I have experiencedE．When I got home，I shared the experience with my parentsF．Many kids had the cookies and juices and were hesitant to try the dumplingsG．I didn't understand why kids were getting their lunch food and not finishing it16.

The province of Pescara surrounds the city of the same name and lies in the very centre of the region of Abruzzo． This is a part of Italy of remarkable beauty and with cultural riches, yet it has never been a major destination for international visitors, largely because the region is not very well served by international flight routes． However, many Italians make their way to the coast here in the summertime． Here are places to visit around the Pescara province．The city of PescaraThe city of Pescara is the most famous today for being the birthplace of Gabriele D' Annunzio, perhaps the greatest Italian writer of the modern times． It is a developed coastal resort（胜地） with several miles of popular sandy beaches and a range of summertime activities for all the family to enjoy．Citta Sant' AngeloLying just a few miles northwest of the city of Pescara in an area famous for the production of Montepulcianod' Abruzzowine, its main visitor attractions are the churches of San Michele Arcangelo and Santa Chiara．Loreto AprutinoAlmost directly west of Pescara, and north of Bolognano, it is worth visiting just to see its wall painting of The Judgement, but this small town has many more to offer the visitor including the region's pottery industry and some excellent olive oil．Castiglione a CasauriaIf you enjoy further southwest from Loreto Aprutino, you will come to Castiglione a Casauria and the remains of the 9th﹣century Abbey （修道院） of San Clemente．（1）Why did the Pescara province see fewer foreign tourists？________A It is a place newly opened to the world．B Its climate is not well appropriate for them．C Most foreign tourists dislike its specific culture．D It is inconvenient for visitors to arrive in Pescara．．（2）What do you know about the city of Pescara？________A It has remains of the 9th﹣century Abbey．B It is one of the most attractive coastal cities．C It appeals to writers of the modern times．D It is near the Pescara province．．（3）Which of the following will you choose to go to if you love art？________A The city of Pescara．B Citta Sant' Angelo．C LoretoAprutino． D Castiglione a Casauria．2. The 33﹣year﹣old Australian, Bradley, is actually a student in international relations completing his PhD through Griffith University． He came to Beijing for a cooperative research at Peking University less than two years ago． Such an academic life was just addedcolor with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project, "I'm in China"．Bradley was lucky to win the most "likes" for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations after a global recruitment（招募） by the project this summer． All the winners' experiences were filmed to produce a realityshow, My Chinese Working Day, which will be broadcast by mid﹣September． The film crew took them to many "amazing sites" and the staff taught them a lot about how to ________ modern Chinese characteristics while still keeping traditional customs． "I would have tosay two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with thestaff at the hotel about how they organize weddings here in China, " he said． That was Bradley's first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the awesome view of the beautiful coastline． "I think it is so important to show other Australians the different landscapes China has to offer． I think so many Australians, when they think aboutChina, imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to see in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places, like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV series, " Bradley said．"I'm in China" is a project sponsored by China Intercontinental Communication Centre and other institutions under the guidance of China's State Council Information Office． It invites foreign natives worldwide to experience unique jobs and participate in activities that one can find nowhere else except in China．（1）What does the underlined word "incorporate" in paragraph 2 mean？________A Distinguish．B Clarify．C Receive．D Include．．（2）According to this passage， what impresses Bradley most in his experience in China？________A The historical sites and the exciting things to see．B The thrilling ride and the unique wedding arrangements．C The different landscapes and traditionalcustoms． D The unique jobs and kind﹣hearted Chinese people．．（3）What's the author's purpose of writing the passage？________A To introduce the cultural exchange project．B To invite the Australians to visit China．C To inform us of the reality show．D To tell an experience in China．．（4）In which column are we likely to read this passage？________A Education．B Environment．C Culture．D History．3. Just as regulation has helped increase fuel efficiency, cut exhaust smokes and introduce anti﹣slip equipment, so government involvement is needed to get the connected car on the road． It is beginning to happen． Earlier this year, Europe's standards﹣setting agencies agreed a common set of agreements for cars and traffic infrastructure（基建） to communicate． Others should follow． Governments should then set firm deadlines for all new cars to be fully connected and capable of matching, and a date for existing cars to be re﹣improved with a basic locator beacon （定位器） and the ability to receive risky warnings． If cars are to connect, new infrastructure will have to be built． Roads and parking spaces will need sensors to monitor them; motorways will need specific lanes for matching． Butthis will not necessarily be expensive． Upgrading traffic signals so they can be controlled remotely by a central traffic management system is a lot cheaper than building new roads． The sooner these changes are made, and cars are plugged into a smart traffic section, the quicker Singaporean variable pricing﹣for parking as well as road use﹣can become the criterion． Motorists will then have the motive, as well as the ability, to avoid the busiest places at the busiest times, and the horrible death that roads take in human lives should start falling．In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more smokes． In the future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain．（1）What do governments truly expect of the connected car？________A It'll be standard﹣friendly．B It'll get fully prepared soon．C It'll be under command．D It'll promote infrastructure．．（2）What will happen if traffic signals are to upgrade？________A More sensors are offered by the companies．B More special roads are needed by motorists．C The whole project is more economical to operate．D The whole society is crazier about the new cars．．（3）Which is most UNLIKELY to benefit from such changes？________A Motorists．B Singaporeans' pricing．C Road death．D Traditional traffic sections．．（4）Which best describes the author's attitude in the text？________A Positive．B Critical．C Objective．D Doubtful．4. The year 2020 marks the beginning of the decade of the yold, or the "young old", as the Japanese call people aged between 65 and 75. 0ne might therefore expect peak retirement for baby﹣boomers born in 1955﹣60 in the coming years, but they are not retiring quietly into the background． By continuing to work, and staying socially involved, the yold will change the world, as they have done several times before at different stages of their lives． The yold are healthier, wealthier and more numerous（众多） than previous generations of seniors． 134million 65﹣to﹣74﹣year﹣olds account for 11% of the population in rich countries in 2020, up from 99million （8%） in 2000． Health worsens with age, but the yold are resisting the decline better than most: of the 3.7 years of increased life expectancy in rich countries between 2000 and 2015． The yold are also better off: between 1989 and 2013, the median（中位的） wealth of families headed by someone over 62 in America rose by 40% , while the wealth of all other age groups declined．The yold are not just any group of old people． The over﹣60s are one of the fastest﹣growing groups of customers of the airline business． They are also changing education． They are challenging the traditional expectations of the retired as people who wear slippers and look after the grandchildren． That will affect consumer, service and financial markets．The rise of the yold will be a blessing to themselves, to economies and to societies． Butfor all this to happen, three big things will have to change． The most important is public attitudes towards older people, and in particular the expectation that 60﹣somethings ought to be putting their feet up and quietly retiring into the background． Government policieswill have to change, too． The retirement age in many rich countries is still below the age to which many people want to work． Public policy makes retirement a cliff edge instead of a ramp（斜坡）． Third, higher numbers of healthy yold people will require great changes in health spending although the yold will still be comparative healthy and active over the next decade．（1）Why will the yold not retire quietly into the background？________A They have a longer life expectancy．B They are richer than the other age groups．C They have an increasing population．D They can still play a vital role in society．．（2）What are the yold usually expected to do after retirement？________A To stay at home babysitting grandchildren．B To get further education in universities．C To travel all over the world by plane．D To stay socially engaged in the company．．（3）What can be done to ensure the position of the yold？________A Bringing forward their retirement age．B Being age﹣friendly towardsthem． C Reducing their cost in health care． D Taking good care of them at home．．（4）What's the main idea of the passage？________A Three effective measures should be taken for the yold．B People hold different opinions over the yold's retirement．C The yold continue to make a big difference to society．D The baby﹣boomers are changing our society nowadays．第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．5.Mountains of smoke and fireDeep under the Earth's surface， it's so hot that even rock melts． Sometimes this molten rock， called "magma"， is pushed up to the surface．（1）_______And the opening or vent that lets the lava out is a volcano．A volcano may explode violently， throwing out rocks for miles around．（2）_______Some volcanoes release clouds of poisonous gas or huge clouds of ash． Volcanoes can even do all these things underwater．Most volcanoes have been around for a very long time． Many haven't erupted for years and have cooled off． Volcanoes that are not going to erupt again are called "dead volcanoes"． Some volcanoes still give off smoke． These "sleeping volcanoes" may "wake up" one day and erupt again．（3）_______ But one day in AD 79 it suddenly woke up． Its eruption threw out hot ash and rocky fragments（碎片） that buried the city of Pompeii． Ahot mud﹣flow buried nearby Herculaneum． Because the remains are so well preserved，the area has been named a World Heritage site．But not all volcanoes are destructive． When a volcano throws out vast amounts of lava and debris（岩屑）， it piles up into a mountain．（4）_______Other volcanoes help provide heat and energy． Many Icelandic homes get their hot water from springs heated by volcanic steam．（5）_______Plants grow very well in the rich soil left by volcanoes． And valuable gems， such as diamonds， can sometimes be found in the rocks that are thrown out by volcanoes．A．At this point it is referred to as "lava"．B．The molten rock is formed inside the Earth．C．This steam can also be used to produce electricity．D．Mount Vesuvius in Italy slept for a thousand years．E．Or it may push lava out so that it flows away， cools and hardens．F．Japan has many active volcanoes within its narrow national territory．G．The Hawaiian Islands and the island of Iceland were created in this

There was no need to feel guilty about things he disliked to do．CA new study shows that air pollution can cause a huge reduction in our intelligence．The study was a project involving researchers at Peking University in China and Yale University in the United States．The researchers reported that long-term exposure to air pollution can affect a person's mental abilities in two areas：Language and math．The researchers studied about 25，000 people from across China．Between 2010 and 2014，these Chinese men，women and children were given language and math tests．Then researchers compared the test results with measurements of pollution in the air，namely nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide （二氧化硫）．Xi Chen of the Yale School of Public Health led the study．He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a person's education level by about one year．Chen said that the effect generally is worse for those over 64 years of age，for men and for those with little or no education．"The older persons-they are more affected．And we find，quite amazingly，males are more affected than females．And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors．He noted that the youngest people in the study were 10 years old，while the oldest was 90 years old．They came from China's 33 provinces．In his words，the data and facts are convincing and this range of ages and locations across the country provided a real，objective and representative sample．The researchers noted that the effect of air pollution on verbal ability is even more serious as people age，especially among men and the less educated．The researchers also stressed that every country，whether developed，developing or poor，should focus on air pollution or humans will face a bad situation．8.What is the result of the study？______A.

A biography．DStories are shared in many ways．They are described in books and magazines．They are read around the campfire at night．They are randomly distributed from stand-alone booths．But what else？To revive （复兴）literature in the era of fast news and smartphone addiction，Short Edition，a French publisher of short-form literature，has set up more than 30 story dispensers （分发机）in the USA in the past years to deliver fiction at the push of a button at restaurants，universities and government offices．Francis Ford Coppola，the film director and winemaker，liked the idea so much that he invested in the company and placed a dispenser at his Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco．Last month public libraries in some other cities announced they would be setting them up，too．There is one on the campus at Penn State．A few can be found in downtown West Palm Beach，Fla．And Short Edition plans to announce more，including at the Los Angeles International Airport．"Everything old is new again，" said Andrew Nurkin，the director of the Free Library of Philadelphia，which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers．"We want people to be easily exposed to literature．We want to advance literacy among children and inspire their creativity．Here's how a dispenser works：It has three buttons on top indicating choices for stories that can be read in one minute，three minutes or five minutes．When a button is pushed，a short story is printed．The stories are free．They are chosen from a computer category of more than 100，000 original submissions by writers whose works have been evaluated by Short Edition's judges，and transmitted over a mobile network．Offerings can be tailored to specific interests，like children's fiction or romance．Short Edition gets stories for its category by holding writing contests．Short Edition set up its first booth in 2016 and has 150 machines worldwide．"The idea is to make people happy，" said Kristan Leroy，director of Short Edition，"There is too much unhappiness today．"12.What do we know about the stories sent by dispensers？______A.

Finally，sound may cause behavioral changes．(5) People tend to walk away from loud or annoying sounds and toward pleasant sounds．Next time a fire engine screams past，birds start singing or you hear a sorrowful pop song，stop，listen，and think about the many ways sound influences you．A．Also，sound affects how we think．B．Birdsong also affects us psychologically．C．In other words，they make our bodies react．D．Unpleasant sounds affect our physical health．E．In fact，some music can put you in a good mood．F．Drivers who listen to fat-paced music may speed up．G．When we hear the ocean rise and fall，the sound relaxes our bodies．1.

A South Korean man and the 21 ducklings he has been raising as his children ever sincethey hatched have been breaking the internet with their amazing bond． A video thatrecently went viral in the western world shows the cute birds following their "mother" ona mountain hike and listening to his every command．The middle-aged man，whose name is not revealed in the video，has been taking care of his 21 ducklings ever since they were eggs，making sure the incubation（孵化）period went smoothly，and even helping the tiny birds break through their shell when it came time to hatch．He was the first thing they laid eyes on in this world，and he has remained the most important figure in their lives since．Ducklings naturally follow their mother around，and since the man was the one who acted as their mother，these birds follow him everywhere，even up a mountain．To them it's only natural，but the middle-aged man considers it training and conditioning for the time when he finally releases them into the wild．He would love to raise them all as pets，but knows that wouldn't be ideal for him or the birds，so he's making sure that they are strong enough to survive in the wild．The video shows the ducks following the middle-aged man as he hikes up a mountainoutside Seoul，stopping whenever he does and refusing to follow anyone else，even if they give the same "let's go" command their human mother does．Unless they hear his voice and see him moving，they don't budge．It's actually quite remarkable．I mean，it's one thing to see dogs acting like this，but ducklings？That's something else．While it's not clear what the man does for a living，I'm pretty sure he has a lot ofexperience with ducks，as at one point he reveals a certificate for "father of ducklings"dated 2005．What can we learn from the

at his factories incentral Bohemia，he sent out advertisements across the Czech Republic．But in aprosperous economy where nearly everyone had work，there were few takers．Raising wages didn't help．Nor did offers to subsidize（补贴）housing．So he turned to the robots．"We can't find enough humans，" said Mr．Frolik，whose company，Linet，makes hospital beds sold in over 100 countries．"So we're trying to replace people withmachines wherever we can．"Such talk usually makes people think of a future where employees are no longerneeded．In many major economies，companies are experimenting with replacing factory workers，truck drivers and even lawyers with artificial intelligence．But in Eastern Europe，robots are being enlisted as the solution for a shortage ofworkers．Often they are helping to create new types of jobs as businesses in the Czech Republic，Hungary，Slovakia and Poland try to stay competitive．Economic growth in these countries has averaged 5 percent in recent years，affected by the globalrecovery． A booming economy has reduced the jobless rate to just 2.4 percent，the lowest in the European Union．The lack of manpower，however，has limited the ability of Czech companies toexpand．Nearly a third of them have started to turn away orders，according to the Czech Confederation of Industry， a trade group．"It's becoming a brake on growth，" said Jaroslav Hanak，the organization'spresident．"If businesses don't increase robotization and artificial intelligence，they'll disappear．"Some factories in Eastern Europe are already on the way．At Elko EP，which makes industrial timers for companies like General Electric，70 percent of production isautomated，and the company is aiming to be almost fully robotized in a few years．Ina corner of the factory，robots have taken over routine manufacturing（制造业）tasks．Jiri Konecny，the company's CEO，moved factory floor workers to morecomplex roles，and focused hundreds of other employees on research anddevelopment．"If we hadn't invested early in automation，we'd be dead by now，" he said．What is the problem that Czech Republic is facing？______A．It's hard to find human workers．B．It's population is decreasing greatly．C．Robots are now welcome at factory work．D．Employees do not want to do factory work．Which of the following may have contributed to the problem in Eastern Europe according to Paragraph 4______A．Tough competition．B．Advanced technology．C． A low birth rate．D． A fast-growing economy．How might Jaroslav Hanak feel about the future of Czech companies______A．PuzzledB．Worried．C．SurprisedD．Hopeful．What should companies do to survive______A．Change their policies．B．Turn to other countries for help．C．Employ qualified human workers．D．Spend more money on automation．30. A rainy day can be a chance to recharge．While you relaxed on the sofa with a movie，the raindrops falling on your windows might one day provide the power for yourTV．This is the idea behind an invention that harvests energy from water．The technology is based on the triboelectric （摩擦电的）effect．An engineer at the University of Hawaii，David Ma knew that it's possible to generate electricity by rubbing two things together．So，he thought，"Why don't we use water？"A drop of water sliding across a surface coated with two different materials wouldgenerate enough friction to create an electrical charge．By placing metal wires that the drop of water touched as it moved，it should be possible to harvest electricity，hereasoned．It worked．In fact，the researchers lit up 15 LED bulbs with a single moving water drop．This is not the first time that scientists have got electricity from water-generated friction（摩擦）．Earlier experiments，though，harvested the charge produced in a surface by a sliding drop of water．There，the surface had acted as an electrode（电极）．This is different．The energy of friction is being harvested from the water itself．"It turns out，" Ma says，"the charge in the water drop is way more than the chargeproduced in the other electrode．" In fact，his team's model generated almost 100 times more power than previous experiments from a single drop of water．"The technology could someday power phones，sensors or other small electronics，" says Christopher Oshman，an engineer at the Colorado School of Mines．"This work is a step toward harvesting the energy of moving objects all around us，including ourselves，to power the electronic appliances we use every day，" he says．Ma has shown that the technology can work in a lab，Oshman says．Next，the Colorado researcher would like to see it tried on a larger scale，such as on an umbrella．How did the author introduce the topic of the text______A．By telling a story．B．By raising a question．C．By giving an example．D．By imagining a situation．What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to______A．The wire．B．The drop of water．C．The surface．D．The electricity．What is unique about Ma's technique compared with earlier experiments______A．The water itself acts as an electrode．B．It is based on the triboelectric effect．C．It produces electricity from water-made friction．D．It uses a surface coated with two different materials．What does Oshman say about Ma's technology______A．It has a promising future．B．It will do well on an umbrella．C．It works well in the real world．D．It will replace batteries

Mommy BloggersDWhile elephants born without tusks （长牙）are not unheard of，they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population．However，that is not the case at Mozambique's Gorongosa National Park，where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the country^ civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless．While that may appear to be just a coincidence，Joyce Poole，an elephant behavior expert，has another theory．The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory．Poole says before the country's 15-year-long civil war，the 100，000-acre park was home to over 4，000 elephants．However，by the time the conflict ended in 1992，about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons （武器）and meat to feed the soldiers．Of the less than 200 survivors，over 50 percent of adult females had no tusks．Therefore，it is not surprising that the park's tuskless elephant population has grown greatly．This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants．At Zambia's South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area，areas which were heavily hunted in the 1970s and 1980s，35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks．A 2008 study published in the African Journal of Ecology found that the numter of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40 percent in 1989，largely due to illegal hunting for ivory．The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of，or at least reduce，elephant hunting．However，scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants witha higher rate of tuskless females，to change the trend．12.What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1 ？______A. Illegal hunting．B. Constant farming．A pure coincidence．D．Natural evolution．13.Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique？______A. To get funds by selling ivory．B. To develop new weapons．C. To provide food for local people．D. To make ivory products．14.Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants？______A. Gorongonsa National Park．B. South Luangwa National Park．C. The Ruaha National Park．D. Lupande Game ManagementArea．15.What does the underlined phrase uthe trendin the last paragraph refer to？______A. Elephants facing greater danger．B. Elephants growing more slowly．C. Fewer female elephants staying alive．D. More female elephants being tuskless．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Many people struggle with saying "No"．(1) Remember，just because you can do something does not mean it is required．Understand you always have a right to turn down an invitation or refuse a favor and figure out the best ways to say "No"．Here are some specific tips．Give yourself permission to say no．Many people have an immediate reaction to say "Yes" when they're asked to do someone a favor．Keep in mind，you are never required to say "Yes"．It's actually okay to say "No" sometimes．Accept this as you prepare to say "No" to someone．(2)Set up your personal boundaries．(3) However，that reason does not have to be concrete．Many people think if they can do something，they should．Your reason for saying "No" can be a simple matter of your own personal boundaries．Think about what boundaries you have，and accept the fact you9re allowed to stay true to them．(4) People often won't take "No" for an answer．If you say "No" to someone，they may give you various reasons to try and change your mind．Stay determined for your decision and do not give in easily．Practice saying " No"• It may sound silly，but you can actually practice saying " No'，alone．(5) Practice giving a firm "No" to someone so you get comfortable with the words．Many people are nervous about saying " No " and may say "Yes" due to anxiety．Practicing can help get rid of some of this anxiety．A．This will help you say "No" with ease．B．Be aware of potential persuasion techniques．C．Find a good chance to stand in front of a crowd．D．It's always easier to say "No" if you have a reason．E．Try standing before a mirror and looking at yourself．F．It's rather easy for you to set up your personal boundaries．G．If someone asks you a favor，you may feel you have to say "Yes"．16.
