(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)(共15题;共30分)ADuring ancient times,children didn’t have smartphones,iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead,they came up with interesting games to play.★Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty,kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China,and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold.Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.In1999,the sport was included in the6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.★Flying kitesKites have quite a long history.The earliest kites were made of wood,instead of paper.Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite,Tianjin kite,Weifang kite and Nantong kite,of which each has distinctive features.The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.★Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children,popular around the nation.There are two ways to play:covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄)him or,more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.★Playing diabolosA diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center.By juggling(边抛边接)the diabolo on the rope,the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle.Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game,especially popular in North China.Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage.1．Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?A．To practice their feet B．To warm themselvesC．To train their skills D．To relax themselves.2．Which kites are swallow-shaped?A．Weifang kites.B．Tianjin kites.C．Beijing kites.D．Nantong kites.3．According to the passage,which one is a national intangible cultural heritage?A．Stone balls.B．Flying kites.C．Hide-and-seek.D．Playing diabolosBTechnology usually distracts us from nature.But now technology is“offering us an opportunity to listen to nonhumans in powerful ways,reviving our connection to the natural world,”wrote professor Karen Bakker in her new book,The Sounds of Life:How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants.All around the animal kingdom,there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and decipher.Elephants, for example,communicate with each other using infrasound,a sound frequency far below our human hearing range.Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves,with one purpose being to attract baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow.This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears!Scientists have placed listening devices in these environments to pick up sounds humans are normally unable to detect.After the sounds are recorded,AI is then able to determine their meaning,according to the news website Vox.There are now whole databases of whale songs and honeybee dances.Bakker wrote that one day this information could be turned into“a zoological version of Google Translate”.One animal language Bakker wrote about is that of the elephant.She explained how elephants“have a different signal for honeybee,which is a threat,and a different signal for human,”in an interview with Vox.“Moreover,they distinguish between threatening humans and non-threatening humans,”she said.This technology can not only understand the animals,but also communicate back to them.For example,bees use dances to communicate to their peers where to go in search of nectar.A research team in Germany,therefore,fed the bee language AI database system into a robot bee,allowing the robot to create a dance routine that can tell the bees which direction to move,Vox reported.Whereas in the past language creation had been limited to mainly apes,with there being many examples of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)having been taught sign language to communicate with humans,this new technology now allows humans to socialize with different animals throughout the animal kingdom.4．What does the underlined word“decipher”most probably mean in paragraph2? A．Understand.B．Hear.C．Produce.D．Record.5．What helps baby coral choose their home?A．Infrasound.B．Sounds within human range of hearing. C．Sounds through its ears.D．Sound waves.6．What can we infer from the passage?A．Bees used dances to warn their peers of danger.B．Human fed listening devices into coral to detect it.C．Elephants have different signals for different purposes.D．Elephants can tell whether there are threatening animals around.7．Why did researchers create the robot bee?A．To collect more bee dances.B．To convey direction to bees.C．To learn the language of bees.D．To help bees search for their friends.CWhen you are travelling in Thailand,which means of transport is the best choice?You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand.It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north.The most popular bikes are the little125cc Honda Dream which you can get for about150baht(铢)a day or as little as3,000baht per month,making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi.When you are in cities in Thailand,especially in Bangkok,always remember to get a taxi that is traveling on the roads.Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the meter(计程表).They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good,so renting cars is another way to get around.The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable price.It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West.Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand,more expensive than American prices,but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe.In the past,Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in—signs were generally in Thai (泰语)only,making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around.But now,the situation is improved.In a lot of places,even the farthest corners of the country,street signs are in both Thai and English.8．To a foreigner,the cheapest way to get around Thailand is renting a______.A．car B．taxi C．bike D．motorbike9．What is the writer's advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?A．To take a taxi going on the road.B．To take a taxi parked outside hotels.C．To make sure there is a meter in it.D．To bargain with the driver over the price. 10．Why was it difficult to drive in Bangkok in the past?A．Because there were too many traffic jams on the roads.B．Because there were no signs showing directions.C．Because the signs were written only in their own language.D．Because the quality of the roads was not good.11．In which part of magazine can this passage be found?A．Entertainment B．Tourism C．Market D．AdvertisementDWilliam I,who conquered England some930years ago,had wealth,power and an army.Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time,he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶)，or riding lawn mower(除草机).How did he get by?History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me.I have storm windows, Croesus did not.Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great,but he couldn,t buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people,you,d think I,d be content.The trouble is that,like most people,I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighbors,school classmates,famous TV people.The greed I feel toward my friend Howard,s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.’There is really no rising or falling standard of living.Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about.You,d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood,but no, we want a hot bath too.Of course,one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today,s standards the things I own are pretty nice.My house is smaller than the houses of many investments bankers,but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.Besides,to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future,these bankers,fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby.I can,t keep up with my neighbors right now.But just wait.12．What does the underlined phrase“get by”in the first paragraph mean?A．Succeed as a king.B．Deal with complaints.C．Live in s satisfactory way.D．Get some extra money.13．How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A．3.B．4.C．5D．614．According to the passage,the author.intends to.A．tell us to be content with lifeB．warn us to live in a simple wayC．teach us to learn lessons from lifeD．encourage us to struggle for wealth15．What,s the author,s attitude towards life?A．Doubtful.B．Optimistic.C．Uncaring.D．Cautious.二、阅读理解第二节七选五(5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)(共1题;共10分)Table manners are the ultimate way to show respect or some accidental disrespect to yourhost.___16___.In France,you are supposed to use two hands to eat—either fork and knife or fork and bread.Bread isn't meant to be an appetizer.___17___When you eat the bread,tear off a piece of it to eat instead of biting directly into the bread.When not in use,the bread belongs on the table or tablecloth instead of the plate.Finishing everything on your plate is a no-no in many Asian countries.___18___Leaving a small amount on your plate symbolizes that you've had your fill and acknowledges your host's generosity.___19___So,tipping,in their culture,is rude.Even if they don’t assume you’re being rude,they can

Note that there is one word more than you needagree suffer system notice throughdangerous space limited absorbs let outFor years scientist have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more _1_ than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to _2_ eye-pain, headache and other problems.

As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control _7_ for building green plants. Scientist do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant produces oxygen _8_ its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each _9_ different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and healthier place.二、阅读理解It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classlesssociety' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice. Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.10．A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A．people regard themselves socially differentB．most people belong to middle classC．it is easy to recognize a person’s classD．it is time to end class distinction11．The word “stratification” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________. A．variety B．qualification C．authority D．division 12．British attitudes towards accent ________.A．are based on regional statusB．have a long traditionC．are shared by the AmericansD．have changed in recent years13．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The middle class is expandingB．A person’s accent reflects his classC．Class is a key part of British societyD．Each class has unique characteristics.Kids are cool to wear blue jeans and T-shirts today. It is fashionable like that. Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!During the 1960s and 1970s, Hippies made bell—bottomed blue jeans（喇叭裤）popular. Also, in the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants（降落伞裤）all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!Do you know why fashions change？The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movies stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain（保持）their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate(模仿) their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.Clothes have been used to separate people into groups for many years. Even today,brand-name, clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to make themselves different from others.Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality — not your clothes — speak for who you are!14．What does the example of bell—bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 2suggest?A．Fashion always changes.B．Stars are always influential.C．People have different dressing styles.D．Hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers.15．What causes the changes of fashions?A．Advertisements change rapidly.B．Popular culture influences people.C．Movie stars are changing over time.D．New films and shows replace the old.16．We can learn from the text that _____ .A．fashion is all about clothes.B．the author has gone out of fashion.C．clothes may separate and distance people.D．people like imitate others’ dressing style.17．What does the author mainly want to stress in the last paragraph?A．The advantages of staying unique.B．The bad effects of following fashion.C．The good influences of popular styles.D．The importance of having one’s own personality.The new study shows that we spend more time using the mobile Internet than reading newspapers or magazines. According to the European Interactive Advertising Association (EIAA), the average European spends 4.8 hours reading newspapers and magazines but 1.6 hours more using the mobile Internet a week.The EIAA questioned 15, 000 people in 15 European countries, looking at how people are using the Internet and its influence on their everyday lives. It has found that the mobile Internet is increasingly finding its way into the public awareness. Over 71 million Europeans now have Internet access on their mobiles phones. In the UK, 10 million people now access the Internet through their mobile phones and spend 6. 3 hours doing so in a week.Unsurprisingly younger generations in the UK are leading the way, with nearly half of the country’s 16-to-24-year-olds and a quarter of 25-to-34-year-olds using the mobile Internet,spending 6.5 and 6.2 hours online each week.Entertainment plays a major role in our mobile Internet lives, with one in five British people using their phones for online games, a third listening to the online radio and 39 percent watching films, TV or other videos at least once a week. One third of those using an Internet phone said they received videos, images or other multimedia on their mobile, and 61 percent said they passed on contents they received.From a communication point of view, 80 percent of those questioned agreed that the Internet had made it easier for them to stay in touch with friends and family.Alison Fennah, director of the EIAA, said the mobile Internet use had come to the point that marketers should be looking to develop strategies that connect with consumers more effectively. ‘‘Better devices as well as improved consumer motivation that start coming together in 2011 can make a great difference to extending the online experience.” Fennah said.18．How long does a European spend on the mobile Internet per week according to the EIAA?A．6. 2 hours.B．6. 4 hours.C．4. 8 hours.D．1. 6 hours.19．What do the words “doing so” mean in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Reading papers and magazines.B．Playing computer games.C．Watching films online.D．Using the mobile Internet.20．What do people mainly use the mobile Internet for?A．Communication.B．Study.C．Amusement.D．Advertising.21．It can be known from the passage that _______.A．more than half of the young people in the UK use the mobile Internet.B．the Internet is the most effective way to stay in touch with friends and family.C．the UK has the largest number of people who use the mobile Internet in Europe. D．better devices and improved consumer motivation help extend the online experience. 22．The author wrote the passage to tell us ________.A．how to use mobile phones to surf the InternetB．newspapers and magazines will disappear soonC．mobile surfing now is more popular than readingD．how the Internet influences our daily lifeGive a little sunshine!The Council on Aging (COA) runs a telephone friendship project called the Sunshine Call Program, matching over-60s with a friendly volunteer for a daily chat over the phone.

His only interest right now is keeping us awake 24/7. But one day, he’ll need to learn something about finance.____27____You might think you want an expensive car, a fancy watch, and a huge house. But you don’t. What you want is respect and admiration from other people. ____28____ It almost never does—especially from the people you want to respect and admire you.____29____ Not struggling, and not unhappy, of course. But there’s no way to learn the value of money without feeling the power of lacking it. It teaches you the difference between necessary and desirable. It’ll make you learn to enjoy what you have, fix what’s broken, and shop for a bargain. These are primary survival skills.Some people are born into families that encourage education; others are from families that are against it. Some are born into peace and wealth; others, into war and poverty. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work and being poor is not always due to laziness. ____30____Your savings rate has a little to do with how much you earn and a lot to do with how much you spend. I know a dentist who lives paycheck to paycheck, always on the edge of ruin. I know another person who has never earned more than $50,000 but saved a fortune____31____ Living with less is the most efficient way to control your financial future.Don’t listen to me if you disagree with what I’ve written. The world you grow up in will have different values and opportunities than the one I did. More importantly, you’ll learn best when you disagree with someone and then are forced to learn it yourself. On the other hand, always listen to your mother.A．I hope you’re poor at some point.B．If you do think so, you may get wrong.C．When he does, here are some suggestionsD．Your goals should be about more than money.E．You think having something expensive will bring it.F．The difference is entirely due to the way they spend.G．Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.四、完形填空The summer was over.

Each bird has certain other individuals itprefers to spend time with, and others it avoids. In other words, flamingos have friends.For five years, Rose and his team observed the daily goings on of five of the world's six different flamingo species housed at the WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre in Gloucestershire."The partnerships that we see between birds are non random. The birds are choosing who to associate with." Male-female pairs spend time together, but so do same-sex pairs and even groups of three or four. And those relationships can last for many years."So there were some flamingos in the group that really didn't care who their partner was for that day, they would flit（轻快地掠过）around… and they would have many different relationships with many different birds." And of course there were other flamingos that were less social butterfly and more alone wolf. But even they had a few close friends. "Those birds that were least social… had more investment in a smaller number of social connection with flamingos that they knew really well."Rose thinks that flamingos may have evolved（演变）their social lives due to their wetland habitats—in which the resources they need are concentrated in a small area.If flamingos know their partners, if they know that these six birds, say, are friendly, and they get on with them, they can then waste less energy scrapping and quarreling with other birds that they don't get on with.By spending time with their friends, flamingos can more efficiently direct their limited time and energy to activities like hunting and mating.（1）What do we know about flamingos?A.They are very elegant birds with big heads.B.They make friends with other flamingos they like.C.Male flamingos only spend time with female ones.D.They usually change partners every couple of months.（2）What can we learn from the fifth paragraph?A.Most flamingos don't care who their partner is.B.Flamingos always don't have close friends.C.A majority of flamingos are good at social activities.D.Some flamingos would fly around to find different friends.（3）How do social activities benefit flamingos?A.By storing food resources.B.By living a relaxing life.C.By flying further to get mating.D.By making the best of their time and energy.（4）What is the best title for the text?A.Flamingos Can Be Picky About CompanyB.Rose And His Research on WildlifeC.How to Protect the Endangered FlamingosD.Why do Flamingos Need Partners3.(12分)A new pastor（牧师）named John reopened a church that had been abandoned in a suburb. He found it broken, and in need of a lot of repair work. His goal was to have everything done in time for his first service on Christmas Eve.He worked hard. However, when John went to the church on Dec. 21, his heart sank: a large area of plaster（石膏）had fallen off the front wall due to a terrible storm the night before. John headed home, and on the way he stopped at a market selling items for charity.One of the items was an exquisite（精致的）handmade tablecloth. It was just the right size to cover up the hole in the front wall. He bought it and headed back to the church. It started to snow. An old woman had missed her bus, and he invited her to wait in the warm church for the next one. As John put up the tablecloth the woman asked him to check the corner for the initials（手写字母）. They were her initials: she had made this tablecloth 35 years before. Then the war broke out, and forced her to part with her husband.John wanted to give her the tablecloth. But she asked him to keep it for the church. John insisted on driving her home which he thought was the least he could do.What a wonderful service he had on Christmas Eve! John noticed one old man staring at the tablecloth on the front wall. The man said it was similar to one that his wife had made many years before.John brought the old man to the house where he had taken the woman three days earlier. He helped him climb the three flights of stairs to her apartment, and saw the greatest Christmas reunion he could ever have imagined.（1）According to Paragraph one, we learn that John decided to ______.A.help people affected by a terrible stormB.buy goods for charity in the neighborhoodC.repair the abandoned church before his first serviceD.do some work for the local people（2）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The woman's husband had to leave her because of a war.B.John's service on Christmas Eve was disappointing.C.Everyone was surprised by the beauty of the tablecloth.D.John drove the old man home because he was lost.（3）The tablecloth drew the old man's attention because ______.A.he loved its colorsB.he had seen it in a churchC.it was like one his wife had madeD.it looked strange hanging on a wall（4）What is the passage mainly about?A.A kind pastor who had difficulty repairing an ancient church.B.A new pastor who gave his first service with a couples' help.C.A tablecloth made 35 years ago being discovered by a pastor.D.An old couple being reunited on Christmas Eve through a tablecloth.4.(12分)So many everyday activities in modern life are done over the Internet. This includes everything from buying clothes to watching movies to even applying for colleges.Almost every college and university in the United States now offers some forms of Internet-based application. And future students can see photographs of schools on their websites. Some even provide video tours. Candidates can find all kinds of information about the schools they hope to attend all over the Internet. But Ed Bustos, director of international admission at Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida, argues that students miss out on a lot when they only use Internet information to make their college decisions. He says the best way to get a detailed look at what life is like at any college or university is by visiting the campus.School visits are very common in the U.S., Bustos notes. Most students begin visiting colleges and universities of interest in the summer before their final year of high school. But, the majority of colleges and universities let interested students and their families visit their campuses at almost any time of year. Bustos suggests that students get in touch with the admissions offices of the schools that interest them. Then they can join other visiting students for a free guided tour of the campus.Current students usually lead the tours, Bustos notes. Their job is to provide information, offer advice and show future students all the different parts of the campus, such as housing and classrooms. So students should prepare plenty of questions.Bustos also notes that it is never too early to visit a school. He says students should consider visiting any college or university they can. This could be years before they even start thinking about the application process. And it does not matter if the school they visit is the one they have interest in attending, he says.

For thousands of years, local fishermen have been diving in the shallow waters on this side of Anegada in search of these, slow-moving snails. Many of them have been throwing their large shells in the same spot. The shell mountain is a result of their perseverance（坚持）.Conches are harvested both for their meat, which is a staple（主食）of Caribbean cuisine, and for their nice-looking shells, which are sold as jewelry. This makes us understand why local sellers don't just use the shells of Conch Island but also buy them from fishermen. Apparently, while these millions of conch shells make a wonderful sight from a distance, they aren't that pretty up close."These shells aren't as pretty as you probably think they are," Reddit user Viking Mart explained on the popular social network. "Most of of them are damaged. This is because in order to get the conch meat out, fishermen usually make a hole by the 'nose' of the shell. This is to reach and loosen the snail muscle and then pull it out. This leaves these conch shells damaged and one would probably have a hard time selling them."Modern day conch fishermen have been contributing heavily to the rise of Conch Island over the past 200 years, but while that has made it that much more attractive of a tourist attraction, it has also put the snails on the endangered species list.（1）What leads to the formation of Conch Island?A.The continuous birth of conches.B.The development of tourism.C.Increasing demand for conch meat.D.Shells thrown by farmers for a long time.（2）Why do sellers buy conches besides picking up them on the Conch Island?A.They need to sell conch meat.B.They want to help the poor fishermen.C.Those which are bought are of higher quality.D.Those on the Conch Island are damaged.（3）What can we learn from Viking Mart's words?A.Most people think shells are beautiful.B.The shells are not so good as people expect.C.Viking Mart is fond of surfing the Internet.D.Farmers always damage the shells on purpose.（4）What is the present situation of the conches?A.They sell well on the market.B.They live happily on Conch Island.C.They are becoming the endangered species.D.They are made into different shapes to sell.6. （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。

Even as the raindrops intensified, folks kept exploring the tables stationed in the parking lot of St. Monica Church. Among the crowd were a number of college students, mostly from the University of Rochester, likely brought in by the College Night awards being offered--a five-dollar token(购物券),a handbag, and a prize raffle entry, all free of charge.Now in its 15th year, Westside volunteer Jackie Farrell said the market partners merelywith local farms, businesses, and community groups to populate its tables. "Our mission really is to serve the people in the community, getting them health and nutrition information, and connecting them to the farmers who grow the produce," Farrell said, "Everything has to be local. It's a producer-only market, so you have to grow or produce whatever you're going to sell here." Those producers had diverse offerings. Vegetables, of course, were abundant but sellers also pushed cheeses, spreads, bread, prepared pasta dishes, and much more.The community groups offering information were diverse too. Recovery All Ways, a local nonprofit with a stated "mission to support anyone affected by substance use disorder" handed out Narcan and trained people in its use. Their station was next to a Moms Demand Action tent, where staffers provided information on physical safety. SNAP-Ed nutrition and benefits educators also ran a table.The activities of the stations was scored by live music. The University's Midnight Ramblers performed, and a local jazz band played away as the rain showers started rolling in.Farrell hoped that the College Night promotion would help make students more comfortable crossing the bridge into the Rochester community." We love college students, and we keep encouraging them that all they have to do is go across the bridge."24.What attracted college students to the College Night?A. Free prizes.B. Scenery in the rain.C. Interesting books.D. Featured goods.25.What is the characteristic of Westside Farmers Market?A. It is managed by farmers themselves.B. Its visitors are mostly university students.C. Its offerings are locally grown or prepared.D. Farmers provide more vegetables than corn.26.Which of the following can best describe the College Night?A. Crowded and chaotic.B. Busy and festive.C. Luxurious and splendid.D. Romantic and peaceful.27.What might be a suitable title for the text?A. Westside Farmers Market is flowering rapidlyB. College Night channels products to communityC. College Night bridges university and communityD. Westside Farmers Market is expanding nationwideCAs a historian who's always searching for the text or the image that makes us re-evaluatethe past, I've become occupied with looking for photographs that show our Victorian ancestors smiling. I've found quite a few, but disappointingly my collection of 'Smiling Victorians' makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast ocean of photographic portraits (肖像画) created between 1840 and 1900 the majority of which show sitters posing like marble statues in front of painted backdrops, or staring absently into the middle distance. How do we explain this trend?During the 1840s and 1850s, in the early days of photography, exposure time was shockingly long: the daguerreotype photographic method (银版照相法) could take several minutes to complete, resulting in unclear images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their arms and legs. So a blank stare instead of a fixed smile became the norm. But exposure time was much shorter by the 1880s. Natural smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s, so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile.One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy smile. "Nature gave us lips to cover our teeth," ran one popular Victorian saying, indicating an easy-to-ignore fact that before the birth of proper dentistry, mouths and irregular and yellow teeth were like peas and carrots. A flashing set of healthy and clean, regular pearly white teeth was a rare sight in Victorian society, the preserve of the super-rich.A toothy smile, especially when there were gaps or blackened teeth, lacked class: Drunks, beggars, and some music hall performers might makes faces and smile with a laugh as wide 8s Lewis Carroll's gum-exposing Cheshire Cat, but it was not a becoming look for properly brought-up people. Even Mark Twain, a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh, said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be “nothing more stomach-turning than a silly, foolish smile fixed forever".28.What do the underlined words “this trend" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Collectors' preference for portraits.B. Victorians' tension before the camera.C. Historians' search for new photographs.D. Photographers' need of new techniques.29.What is a cause of Victorians' unwillingness to smile in the 1890s?A. The shockingly long exposure time.B. The requirement of clear pictures.C. The misunderstanding of dignity.D. The worrying dental condition.30.Why does the author mention Lewis Carroll and Mark Twain?A. To introduce a new topic.B. To make a certain prediction.C. To illustrate a point of view.D. To provide some useful advice.31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Secret of Victorians' PortraitsB. Photographs of Victorians: Faded SmilesC. A Question for Victorians: to Smile or NotD. A Strange Story- the Unsmiling VictoriansDVoice cloning is when a computer program is used to generate a synthetic(合成的), adaptable copy of a person's voice. From a recording of someone talking, the software is able to then copy his or her voice speaking any words or sentences that you type into a keyboard.Such have been the recent advances in the technology that the computer generated audio is now said to be shockingly exact. The software can pick up not just your accent-but your timbre(音质),pace, flow of speaking and your breathing. And the cloned voice can be adjusted to express any required emotion-such as anger, fear, happiness or boredom.Voice cloning can also be used to translate an actor's words into different languages, therefore potentially meaning, for example, that US film production companies will no longer need to hire additional actors to make sound-copied versions of their movies for overseas distribution.Yet despite it obvious commercial potential, voice coning has also led to growing concerns that it could be used in cyber(网络)crime-to trick people that someone else is talking. And cyber security expert Eddy Bobritsky says there is a "huge security risk" that comes with the synthetic voices, In fact, such a case was reported by the Wall Street Journal in 2019,with a UK manager said io have been tricked into transferring 190,000 to cyber-criminals who used a cloned copy of the voice of his German boss.Therefore, steps to deal with this new technology and the threats it brings with it need tobe made. And fi round the world are in fact already doing this. Such companies can monitor audio to see if it is fake, looking for tell-tale signs like repetition, digital noise, and the use of certain phrases or words Meanwhile, governments and law agencies are also looking at the issue. Last year, the EU urged its member states to make "significant investments" in technologies that can detect deepfakes.32.How far has voice cloning gone?A. An accent can be changed randomly.B. Speech features of a person can be copied exactly.C. Words and sentences typed can be recognized easily.D. Computer-generated audios can record emotions accurately.33.How does voice cloning benefit film companies?A. It popularizes their movies.B. It reduces production costs.C .It expands overseas markets.D. It trains their amateur actors.34.What does the underlined phrase "huge security risk" mean in paragraph 4?A. Voice cloning can be used illegally.B. Employees have doubts on their bosses.C. People are forced to commit a crime.D. Synthetic voice loses its commercial value.35.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The procedures to detect a fake cloned voice.B. The urges to increase investment in voice cloning.C. The methods to improve the quality of cloned voice.D. The measures to prevent negative effects of voice cloning.第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分）阅读下面短文，从短文后提供的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

Note that there are tvvo more sentences than you need.Most people don't need science to appreciate the importance of a mother's love. But to understand how early maltreatment can derail a child's development requires careful study.In a famous research, Harry Harlow had demonstrated that proper psychological and physical development of infants requires nurturing and attention from a parent.（1）______ In that research, socially isolated monkey babies that were removed from their mothers were found to be clinging to a cloth—covered surrogate mother for comfort.Such experimentations sound cruel. They, however, have been critical in helping change policies in human orphanages（孤儿院）in the U. S. For centuries sonic orphanages treated infants equally inhumanely. Despite early evidence that orphanage infants were far more likely to die than others, supporters argued that it didn't matter whether children had "parents" specially devoted to them at the orphanage.（2）______ Orphans were supposed to be in positive mental and physical health until adoptive parents were found. Babies, they said, couldn't remember anyway.The harrowing consequences of these theories were most vividly brought to light in Romania in the 1980s and 90s. A ban on abortion（流产）led to a surge in orphanage babies. Simply being fed and changed without individualized affection, some babies present serious problems. Many developed violent behaviors, repetitively rocking or banging their heads. Some were cold and withdrawn or indiscriminately affectionate.（3）______ Their head sizes were especially small.They even had problems with attention and comprehension. The longer these children were left alone, the more damage was seen.The lack of a secure attachment relationship in the early years has destructive consequences for both physical and mental health later in life, with long-lasting effects. The persistence of these effects emphasizes the need to intervene early in life. The Nobel-prize-winning economist James Heckman, has long argued that investing in early childhood education provides a greater returns for society than virtually any other type of spending. It is obviously reflected in increased educational success and productivity. The reduced crime, addiction, distress and disorder point to the same theory. Early life conditions critically affect adult life.（4）________Remove it and the harm is great.A. The appropriate feeding and caring styles were greatly rewarded in all aspects.B. It was claimed that simply feeding and changing them would be adequate.C. Some, however, demonstrate little influence with roughly ordinary behavior pattern.F. And they simply didn't grow like normal infants.25. On my first job as sports editor for the Montpelier Leader Enterprise（MLE），I didn't get a lot of fan mail，so my attention was caught by a letter on my desk one morning．When I opened it，I read："Sweet piece of writing on the Tigers．Keep up the good work．"It was signed by Don Wolfe，the sports editor． Because I was a teenager（being paid the grand total of 15 cents a column inch），his words could not have been more inspiring，I kept the letter in my desk drawer until it got old．Whenever I doubted I had the right stuff to a writer，I would reread Don's note and ________ again．Later，when I got to know him，I learned that Don made a habit of writing a quick，encouraging note to people in all walks of life，"When I make others feel good about themselves，"he told me，"I feel good，too．"Over the years，I've tried to copy Don and write uplifting words．In a world too often cold and unresponsive，such notes bring warmth．Why are positive note writers in such short supply My guess is that many who shy away from the practice are too self﹣conscious．They are afraid they will be misunderstood．Thus it may cause troubles and problems．And it sounds insincere on the phone，Also，writing takes time；it is far easier to pick up the phone．The drawback of phone calls，of course，is that they do not last．A note attaches more importance to our well﹣wishing．It is a matter of record，and our words can be read more than once savored （回味） and treasured，and they bring strength and love to us．Today I sent a warm letter to my old boss．I don't know if it will make his day，but it made mine．As my friend Don Wolfe said．"Making others feel good about themselves makes me feel good too．"（1）What does the underlined part "walk on air" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？（No more than 5 words）________（2）According to the author，why aren't people willing to write letters？（No more than 15 words）________（3）Why did the author write to his old boss？（No more than 15 words）________（4）What's the text mainly about？（No more than 10 words）________（5）Were you encouraged by anybody？And how？（No more than 25 words）________四、完形填空（本题共计 1 小题，共计5分）26.(5分)First FailureI leaned my head on my hand.

Some take over-the-counter（非处方的）medicines such as aspirin while others try popular home remedies（治疗）like herbal tea or chicken soup. Yet here is the tough truth about the common cold: nothing really cures it.So why do people sometimes believe that their remedies work? According to James Taylor, professor at the University of Washington, colds usually go away on their own in about a week, improving a little each day after symptoms peak, so it's easy to believe it's medicine rather than time that deserves the credit, USA Today reported.It still seems hard to believe that we can deal with more serious diseases yet are powerless against something so common as a cold. Recently, scientists came closer to figuring out why. To understand it, you first need to know how antiviral（抗病毒的）drugs work. They attack the virus by attaching to and changing the surface structures of the virus. To do that, the drug must fit and lock into the virus like the right piece of a jigsaw（拼图）, which means scientists have to identify the virus and build a 3-D model to study its surface before they can design an antiviral drug that is effective enough.The two cold viruses that scientists had long known about were rhinovirus（鼻病毒）A and B. But they didn't find out about the existence of a third virus, rhinovirus C, until 2006. All three of them contribute to the common cold, but drugs that work well against rhinovirus A and B have little effect when used against C."This explains most of the previous failures of drug trials against rhinovirus," study leader Professor Ann Palmenberg at University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, told Science Daliy.Now, more than 10 years after the discovery of rhinovirus C, scientists have finally built a highly-detailed 3-D model of the virus , showing that the surface of the virus is, as expected, different from that of other cold viruses.With the model in hand, hopefully a real cure for a common cold is on its way. Soon, we may no longer have to waste our money on medicines that don't really work.（1）What does the author think of popular remedies for a common cold?A.They are quite effective.B.They are slightly helpful.C.They actually have no effect.D.They still need to be improved.（2）How do antiviral drugs work?A.By breaking up cold viruses directly.B.By changing the surface structures of the cold viruses.C.By preventing colds from developing into serious diseases.D.By absorbing different kinds of cold viruses at the same time.（3）What can we infer from the passage?A.The surface of cold viruses looks quite similar.B.Scientists have already found a cure for the common cold.C.Scientists were not aware of the existence of rhinovirus C until recently.D.Knowing the structure of cold viruses is the key to developing an effective cure.（4）What is the best title for this passage?A.Drugs against cold virusesB.Helpful home remediesC.No current cure for common coldD.Research on cold viruses28.Who was the most important person of the year?

2023全国高考英语真题模拟卷一、阅读理解，阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）1．阅读理解Food is one of the necessities in our daily life. It serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between countrysides and cities within one country.Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition hits its roots in the custom of sharing bread.Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (兴旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (预示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.（1）According to the passage, sharing bread______.A．can help to develop unityB．indicates a lack of foodC．is a custom unique to rural areasD．has its roots in birthday celebrations（2）The author explains the role of food in celebrations by______.A．analyzing causes B．making comparisonsC．using examples D．describing processes（3）What is the passage mainly about?A．The custom of sharing food.B．The specific meaning of food.C．The role of food in ceremonies.D．The importance of food in culture.2．阅读理解The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty.Since the 1980s,some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health,while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.According to a scientific report,mild coffee consumption,three to five cups per day,can he taken as a healthy dietary pattern,along with other healthful behaviors.The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson's disease.According to Dr.Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic,high consumption of coffee has healthrisks.Dr.Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body.Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr.Gregory Marcus,a doctor from the University of California San Francisco,daily moderate consumption of caffeine,less than 4 cups,is not associated with these issues.Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health,it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking coffee,Harwood,a high school student stated,"Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee,for the most part,coffee drinking sounds good for health.Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake."（1）What is the people's attitude towards the effects of coffee on health according to Paragraph 1?A．Disapproving.B．Tolerant.C．Doubtful.D．Mixed.（2）What does the underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Personal.B．Slight.C．Reasonable.D．Heavy.（3）What can we infer about Harwood?A．He'll keep on drinking coffee.B．He loves his high school life.C．He often falls asleep in class.D．He has some health problems.（4）What would be the best title for the text?A．Why People Love Coffee?B．How Coffee Affects Health?C．The Culture of Coffee Drinking D．The New Findings of Heart Disease3．阅读理解As the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.Ludwig van Beethoven(1770-1827)Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions(作曲). The last 30 years of Beethoven's life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven's music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.Johann Sebastian Bach(1685-1750)Bach, “the father of modern music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist(风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court(宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.Frederic Chopin (1810-1849)Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.Franz Schubert(1797-1828)Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors(前辈),Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.（1）Beethoven did Not make a living by ___.A．teaching students B．giving concertsC．selling his works D．doing business（2）Bach worked as an organist in Weimar until _____.A．1765B．1707C．1750D．1716（3）Who is called “the father of modern music”?A．Beethoven B．Bach C．Chopin D．Schubert（4）What do we know about the four musicians ?A．They all lived a hard life at their old age.B．They were all good at playing the piano.C．They became famous at a young age.D．They were all talented musicians4．阅读理解A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components (元件),” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers' fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”（1）The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was that __________.A．they had no model in their mindB．they did not have sufficient timeC．they had no ready-made componentsD．they could not assemble the components（2）It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the robotic fly __________.A．consists of a flight device and a control systemB．can just fly in limited areas at the present timeC．can collect information from many sourcesD．has been put into wide application（3）Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A．The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.B．Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C．There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.D．Wood's design can replace animals in some experiments.（4）Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A．Father of Robotic FlyB．Inspiration from Engineering ScienceC．Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life InsectD．Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）5．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。

Total freedom. No math class to sit in, and her days would be Spent on horseback. she thought of her horse, Star.“Madison. Could you please join us again?” Mrs. Smith said. “I was just as king the class if anyone had any problems with the homework assignment.”“Well, I didn’t have any problems doing it, but I had problems remembering to put it in my school bag aft er I did it.” Some giggling spread through the room.“Madison. I don't know what I am going to do with you. You're such a smart girl but you just don’t apply yourself. Class, clear your desks. Our guest is here and welcome Doctor Landon. He is a veterinarian（兽医）. He came here today as part of our continued Career Explorations Program.”Madison tried to focus as Doctor Landon talked about how important grades were and how he struggled with math when he was a kid. Doctor Landon was still talking but she lost track of what he was saying. Then a word caught her attention. Horse. Was he talking about horses?Gradually, Madison knew Doctor Landon had come to her town and house when her horse, Star, needed care. She liked it that he even knew her horse’s name. “So, you just travel around and take care of horses all day long?”Do ctor Landon nodded. “I travel with my truck to take care of horses and ponies across the county. It is a lot of work, but I love it.”Madison's mouth fell open. What a life that must be, she thought. At that moment, sitting in class, Madison could see her future and her life suddenly seemed bigger. By the time she got off the bus that afternoon, her plans for the afternoon had changed. She was still going to ride Star, but first she was going to spend an hour studying math. Then tomorrow she'd spend an hour studying science.24．Why was Madison called by Mrs. Smith in class?A．Because she had problems with math.B．Because she was absent-minded in class.C．Because she was distracted by the birds outside.D．Because she forgot to bring her homework back.25．Why was Doctor Landon invited to the class?A．To call for care for animals.

D．She changed her hobby completely. 27．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．An Exciting Horse Riding B．An Interesting Math ClassC．Madison Dreams Big D．Madison Pursues FreedomCNowadays, countries are eager to get more electric cars on the road because moving away from gas-powered vehicles is vital to fighting climate change. China says that most new vehicles sold by 2035 will be electric. The United Kingdom will ban new gas-powered cars in 2030. One of the world's major automakers, General Motors (GM), announced that it would stop selling gas-powered cars by 2035.The key to an electric future is batteries. Automakers are racing to pack the most energy into the smallest one. The 1ithium-ion (锂离子) battery is what powers our mobile devices, which can be recharged again and again. Making these batteries has an environmental cost. Lithium is taken from the earth, like the oil used to make gasoline. But the long-term cost is much smaller. "Once you bum gasoline, you can't recycle it," says Jessika Trancik, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "But when you use up a battery, you can still recycle the material."It’s up to gove rnments to make electric cars accessible to everyone. National policies can help. In the United States, an electric Chevy V olt costs about $35,000. Trancik says charging stations must also be made widely available. As part of an effort to fight climate change, America plans to build half a million of them in the US by 2030. She hopes enough charging stations will be built soon. “It’s important to put chargers where many different people can have access to them,” she says. “Not just wealthier people.”Last year, almost 5% of approximately 67 million new cars sold worldwide were electric. For Venkat Viswanathan, a professor of mechanical engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, green electricity is part of the solution to climate change, and electric cars are just the beginning. He sees a future of solar-powered homes and electric flying cars. "Soon, a plug-in vehicle might be as cheap as a gas-powered car. It is now abundantly clear that electric is the future," he says. "It will be a totally new world."28．Which word best describes Trancik's attitude to the 1ithium-ion battery?A．Conservative B．Skeptical C．Positive D．Disapproving 29．What does Trancik indicate about charging stations in Paragraph 3?A．They should come down in price. B．They may be unfairly laid out.C．Enough of them have been built. D．They favor more ordinary people. 30．What can be inferred from Viswanathan?A．Gas-powered cars will be cheaper. B．Green electricity will be widely used.C．The price of batteries will drop sharply. D．Electric vehicles will beat climate change.31．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Charging Stations Are Needed B．Vehicles Have Clean OptionsC．Climate Change Fuels Electricity D．Our Cars Are Going ElectricDJason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working”to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard－he or she spends a long time in the 1ibrary and is not afraid to push on late into the night－but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she's doesn't actually accomplish much.This phenomenon can be seen on must college campuses . For example , at Dartmouth there was asection of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day, and the students I used to see there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. The roommate who flips through her chemistry notes on the couch while watching TV is pseudo-working.By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain's ability to think clearly and efficiently accomplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort.The bigger problem here is that most students don't even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work－it’s how they've always done it, and it's how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it. It not only wastes time, but it's also mentally tiring.In fact, the most important skill in becoming a straight-A student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. Some cognitive science research concludes that about fifty minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material integrated per time unit. So how do these students achieve this goal? To understand their secret to success, consider the following simple formula (公式): work accomplished = time spent × intensity of focus.Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A approach on the other hand, increases intensity in order to use less time.32．Which of the following phenomenon is pseudo-working?A．Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture.B．Mike is sitting at a study lounge in preparation for a final exam quietly.C．Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music.D．Alice and Sara are sitting on the couch reading their favorite books.33．Compared with straight-A students, the major problem of most students is that .A．they want to spend more time on studyB．they are eager to follow their friends' wayC．they have got used to their study approachD．they are unaware of their pseudo-working34．What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5?A．Possible B．Best C．Least D．Accurate 35．What does the author want to stress by mentioning the formula?A．The length of time on study counts.B．Concentration plays a key role in study.C．Getting work done quickly means everything.D．Effective study approach is very important.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

It allows us to explore new places, meet new people, and learn about different cultures. However, some people think that traveling is too expensive and time-consuming. In this essay, I will discuss the benefits of traveling and why it is worth the effort.Firstly, traveling broadens our horizons. By visiting differentcountries and cities, we can learn about the history, culture, and traditions of other people. This helps us to understand the world better and appreciate the diversity of human experiences. Secondly, traveling can improve our communication skills. When we travel, we often need to interact with people from different backgrounds. This can be challenging, but it also provides an opportunity to learn new languages and improve our social skills. Lastly, traveling can be a great way to relax and de-stress. Being in a new environment can help us to forget about our daily routines and focus on enjoying the present moment.Of course, traveling does come with some challenges. It can be expensive, time-consuming, and sometimes even dangerous. However, the benefits of traveling far outweigh the risks. In my opinion, everyone should try to travel at least once in their life. It is an experience that can change our perspective on life and make us more open-minded and compassionate individuals.26. What is the main idea of the passage?A.

DescriptiveBPassage for questions 31-35The Internet has become an integral part of our daily lives. It has revolutionized the way we communicate, access information, and conduct business. However, the Internet also poses some challenges and risks. In this essay, I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the Internet and how we can mitigate its negative impacts.One of the main advantages of the Internet is its ability to connect people from all over the world. We can now communicate with friends and family through social media platforms, video calls, and email. This has made the world a smaller place and has fostered a sense of global community. Additionally, the Internet provides us with access to a vast amount of information. We can research topics of interest, learn new skills, and stay updated on current events. The Internet has also transformed the way we conduct business. Online shopping, e-commerce, and digital marketing have become popular and have created new opportunities for entrepreneurs.However, the Internet also has its disadvantages. One of the biggest concerns is privacy and security. Cybercrime, such as hacking and identity theft, has become a significant issue. Another problem is the negative impact of the Internet on our mental health. Excessive use of social media and other online platforms can lead to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Additionally, the Internet can be asource of misinformation and fake news, which can be harmful to individuals and society.To mitigate the negative impacts of the Internet, we need to be cautious and responsible. We should use strong passwords, keep our personal information secure, and be critical of the information we consume. It is also important to limit our screen time and maintain a healthy balance between online and offline activities.31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate and access information.B. The Internet has both advantages and disadvantages.C. The Internet is a source of misinformation and fake news.D.

PersuasiveD. DescriptiveCPassage for questions 36-40The importance of education cannot be overstated. It is the key to personal and societal development. Education equips individuals with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to succeed in life. In this essay, I will discuss the benefits of education and why it is crucialfor both individuals and society.Firstly, education helps individuals to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. By studying different subjects, students learn how to analyze information, evaluate arguments, and make informed decisions. These skills are essential in both personal and professional life. Secondly, education provides individuals with the opportunity to pursue their interests and passions. Whether it is science, art, music, or literature, education allows students to explore their talents and pursue their dreams. Lastly, education fosters social cohesion and unity. By studying together and working towards common goals, students learn torespect and appreciate diversity. This helps to build a more inclusive and harmonious society.However, there are challenges and issues in the education system. One of the main challenges is the lack of access to quality education. Many students, especially those from low-income families, do not have access to the resources and opportunities they need to succeed. Another problem is the increasing cost of education. Tuition fees and other expenses have become unaffordable for many students. Additionally, there is a need to improve the quality of education and ensure that it is relevant to the needs of the modern world.To address these challenges, we need to focus on improving access to education, reducing the cost of tuition, and ensuring that the curriculum is up-to-date and relevant. We also need to invest in teacher training and professional development to ensure that educators are equipped to provide quality education.36. What is the main idea of the passage?A.

They compared each one to the sun in terms of surface temperature, size and rotation. They found that on average, the other stars had five times more brightness variability than our sun.The lead author was Timo Reinhold, an astronomer with the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Germany. He told the Reuters news agency that the variability in brightness results from dark spots on the surface of the star moving in and out of view."A direct measure of solar activity is the number of sunspots on the surface," Reinhold said. "Finding such stars with very similar parameters as our sun but being five times more variable was surprising."The sun—made up mainly of hydrogen and helium—is an average-sized star that formed more than 4.5 billion years ago. It stretches about 1.4 million kilometers across and has a surface temperature of 5,500 degrees Celsius.The researchers compared scientific data on the similar stars to historical records of the sun's activity. The records included about 400 years of observational data on sunspots. The researchers also studied about 9,000 years of data based on chemical element variants in tree rings and ice buildup tied to solar activity. These records show the sun has not been much more active than it is now.The researchers said increased magnetic activity related to sunspots can lead to electromagnetic events that affect Earth. For example, large releases of plasma—a collection of charged particles—from outer areas of the sun's atmosphere could cause problems for satellites and other communications equipment.The discovery may be good news for life on Earth. A much more active sun might have had more major effects on Earth's geology and ancient climate. "A 'too active' star would definitively change the conditions for life on the planet, so living with a quite boring star is not the worst option," Reinhold said.The findings, he noted, do not rule out the possibility that the sun may be in a quiet period and could become more variable in the future. However, the researchers say there are no signs that solar activity will be increasing any time soon.（1）According to Timo Reinhold, what causes the variability in brightness of the sun?A.Hydrogen and helium in the sun.B.The surface temperature of the sun.C.The diameter（直径）of the sun.D.Dark spots on its outer part.（2）Which of the following helped researchers prove the sun's inactivity?A.Scientific data of all the other stars.B.Data of sunspots observed in the past 400 years.C.9,000 years of data of the activities of the sun.D.Data of chemical element variants in icy trees.（3）What will probably happen if the sun becomes very active?A.There will be a decreased magnetic activity.B.The geology and climate of the Earth will be different.C.Satellites and other communications equipment will work better.D.People on the Earth have to live with the quite boring star.（4）What is the best title of this article?A.The sun: less active than similar starsB.The sun: less bright and intense than beforeC.Sun spots: a direct measure of solar activityD.Sun spots: the cause of electromagnetic events on EarthC.They have the same cognition level.D.They adapt to new environment quickly.（3）What is unique about dogs?A.Their cognition.B.Their sense of smell.ing tools.D.Exhibiting self-awareness.25.(8分)Airline travel causes roughly 2%—3％ of the pollution that makes the greenhouse effect worse. Airplanes powered by a very common gas called hydrogen（氢）could change all of that. Last Thursday, a company called ZeroAvia made a successful test flight of what it calls the "largest hydrogen-powered aircraft in the world". Many companies are working on hydrogen-powered vehicles, but ZeroAvia's test flight used a plane that can seat 6 people—the largest hydrogen powered plane ever flown. ZeroAvia made a similar flight in June, but that one was battery-powered.Hydrogen can be used to power vehicles by combining it with oxygen in a "fuel cell", which is like a battery that never runs out as long as it has hydrogen. The chemical reaction which takes place between hydrogen and oxygen in a fuel cell creates electricity, but doesn't give off any pollution—only water. Thursday's flight was an important step in the company's HyFlyer project. The company is hoping to make it possible for airlines to carry small numbers of passengers for short distances without polluting. The company's next big goal is to make a longer flight—of about 465 kilometers or more—by the end of the year. ZeroAvia believes passengers could actually be flying on hydrogen-powered airplanes by 2023.Another company called Gravity Industries put on a test of its jet suit recently to show how it could help emergency medical workers reach injured people quickly. The jet suit is powered by small jets on each arm and one on the back. By pointing the jets at the ground, the pilot can take off. Returning to the ground is just a matter of pointing both arms out to the side. Richard Browning, the suit's inventor, flew up a mountain to find some people who were pretending to be hurt（for the test）. To reach the spot by climbing the mountain would have taken 25 minutes. Mr. Browning was able to cover the same distance in just 90 seconds. One problem? The cost. The suit sells for about $440,000.（1）Compared with similar ones, what advantage does ZeroAvia's aircraft have?A.It has its own fuel cell.B.It flies faster and longer.C.It can be battery powered.D.It can contain more people.（2）What is ZeroAvia's opinion about its hydrogen-powered aircraft?A.It'll be more costly than ever.B.It'll be available for real soon.C.It'll rid the greenhouse effect.D.It'll get jet suits more popular.（3）Which aspect of the jet suit does paragraph 3 mainly focus on?A.How it helps people land.B.How it was tested.C.How it was invented.D.How it saves people's lives.（4）What is the suitable title for the text?A.New Flying Inventions Take offpanies Develop New PlanesC.Flying Fuel Cells Are Used WidelyD.Jet Suits Are on ZeroAvia's PlanesA.to dry your handsB.to wash away the soapC.to rub your hands carefullyD.to clean your fingers（3）The last paragraph mainly tells us ________.A.how to wash your hands correctlyB.why washing hand with soap is so importantC.the dangers of washing hands without soapD.when we should especially wash our hands with soap（4）In which part of newspaper would you most probably read this passage?A.Medical care.B.Public service.C.Health report.D.Advertisement.27. （10分）A． I didn't know Eva was interested in photography．B． There are a lot of photographers out there．C． You mean she's coming to the game， too？D． I just have to close the shop．E． It's time to go．Charley：Come on， Steve．（1）_______Steve： Wait a minute．（2）_______Charley： OK．Steve： By the way， can we give my sister a ride home tonight？Charley： Sure．（3）_______Steve： Yeah． She wants to take some pictures．Charley：（4）_______Steve： Yeah． She'd like to work for a newspaper some day．Charley： But I think it might be difficult for her to succeed．（5）_______四、书面表达（本题共计 1 小题，共计35分）28. （35分）你校英语戏剧社要举办一场演出。

2023年4月16日高中英语作业学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The American space agency NASA says a spacecraft has entered the sun’s outermost atmosphere for the first time. Scientists announced that Parker Solar Probe traveled through the solar atmosphere’s outer edge, known as the corona (日冕). They described the entry as a successful touch on the sun.Unlike Earth, the sun does not have a solid surface. Instead, it is a superheated ball of material held together by gravity and magnetic (磁的) forces. The temperature of the corona is so high that the sun’s gravity cannot hold on to it and some solar material escapes from it and goes into space, which causes the solar wind. The solar wind is the flow of charged pieces, known as plasma.Parker Solar Probe was launched in 2018 which mainly studied the solar wind. The sun is actually a magnetic variable star with solar activity happening nearly periodically. Scientists said being able to study the solar wind and the corona close up could help them better understand “the way the activity causes changes to the planet we live on”.“We can actually see the spacecraft flying through the coronal structure during a total solar eclipse (日全食),” Nour Raouafi, the project scientist, said, adding that it took them a few months to examine information from the spacecraft and to confirm the result and that the evidence used included data on magnetic fields and the solar wind, as well as images. Scientists reported Parker Solar Probe successfully went in and out of the corona at least three times.The Parker team said early data also suggested the spacecraft may have entered the corona during its ninth close approach in August, but a further study is needed to make a confirmation. The spacecraft is expected to keep getting closer to the sun and diving deeper into the corona until its final orbit, planned for 2025.1．What do we know about the solar wind from the text?A．It affects the corona’s temperature.B．It functions as the surface of the sun. C．It is caused by magnetic forces.D．It comes from the sun’s outer atmosphere.2．Why did NASA launch Parker Solar Probe?A．To find out why solar activity happens.B．To know how solar activity influences Earth.C．To get more evidence of the solar wind.D．To take measures to control the solar wind.3．What are the scientists’ attitude to their findings?A．Confused.B．Doubtful.C．Cautious.D．Favorable. 4．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Spacecraft Touches the Sun for the First TimeB．Parker Uncovers the Secrets of the Solar WindC．NASA Brought New Discoveries about the SunD．Parker Is Designed to Reach the Sun in 2025Dear Dad,Today, I spent a lot of time selecting and reading the Father's Day cards at the shopping mall. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really wanted to say to you.You'll soon be 84 years old. Dad, you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day, but I've always been with you in my heart. You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the great divide and I on the other.The father-daughter conflict shifted into high gear (档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge while I decided I would drive the Chevy whether you liked it or not. To my surprise, when the police officer sent me home after you reported the Chevy stolen, you were so tolerant (宽容的) about it because I had thought that would probably be the worst night of my life.Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and weak behind the wheel of that huge car. Perhaps I sawyour age for the first time that day.I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's my wish that it never had to end.I love you, Dad.Love,Jenny 5．We can learn from the text that Jenny and her father________.A．have been getting along very wellB．kept in touch by writing to each otherC．had a hard time understanding each otherD．are separated because of the generation gap6．What rhetorical device is used in the underlined part in Paragraph 3?A．Metaphor.B．Simile.C．Repetition.D．Personification. 7．What made Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week?A．Mistaking him for someone else.B．Realizing his being old and weak. C．Seeing him driving so slowly.D．Meeting him around the corner. 8．Jenny wrote his father this letter to ________.A．say sorry for the unhappy past B．share her happy moments with him C．express her deep love to him D．remind him of the Father’s DayThe coming Thanksgiving festival in the United States will be the most expensive in years because of high food prices, which are also hurting many of the country's food banks, on which tens of millions of people in the US rely.Nearly every component of the Thanksgiving feast, from the turkey to the disposable roasting pan, after-dinner coffee and pumpkin pie will cost more this year. Labor shortages, higher transportation costs, supply chain disruptions and extreme weather are factors. In addition, Americans are spending more time cooking and eating at home, increasing the demand for foodstuffs.Last month the US consumer price index for food rose 5.3 percent from a year ago, the most since January 2009, the Labor Department reported on Wednesday.“More people are seeking help from food banks, said Brian Greene, president of the Houston Food Bank, the largest Feeding America food bank in the country. Because most of the food in the Houston Food Bank is surplus food from donations, rising food prices have not influenced the agency's food supply greatly,” he said. “The foods that would normally go to the supermarkets are decreasing, but on the other hand, for the foods that are going to the restaurants, we have a huge increase there.”“We are seeing price increase from our vendors of between 2 percent to 10 percent for some items,” said Paule Pachter, chief executive of Long Island Cares-The Harry Chapin Food Bank. “The agency provides food and support services for a network of more than 374 community-based member agencie. The increase in food prices is causing more people to seek help from food pantries, but food donations are decreasing,” Pachter said. Food banks are seeing increasing “donor fatigue”, and more donors are willing to volunteer rather than make continuous donations of food. “We are experiencing a significant decrease in the total amount of food donations being made to the regional food bank. As of Sept 30 food donated through food drives is down by 20 percent compared with the same time in 2020. We are seeing a decrease in both in-person and virtual food drives being hosted this year.”As food prices rose, the administration of US President Joe Biden announced an increase to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in August.9．What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A．What factors have a big influence on Americans' life.B．What causes the Thanksgiving feast to be more expensive.C．What component of the Thanksgiving feast will cost more.D．What leads to Americans' spending more time cooking at home.10．What does the underlined word "surplus" in para. 4 mean?A．More than what is saved.B．More than what is sold.C．More than what is needed.D．More than what is wasted.11．What can we infer from Para. 5?A．Donors are less willing to volunteer at Food banks.B．People are less willing to make continuous donations of food.C．A decrease in in-person drives is greater than that in virtual drives.D．The increase in food prices is causing fewer people to seek help.12．What can be the best title for the news report?A．Rising prices dampen Thanksgiving moodB．US consumer price index for food rises 5.3 percentC．Tens of millions of people in US rely on food banksD．Some Americans are to suffer during coming ThanksgivingThe Red Bicycle is a storybook about a bicycle’s journey from North America to the countryside in West Africa. The full name of the book is The Red Bicycle: The Extraordinary Story of One Ordinary Bicycle, and was written by Jude Isabella from Canada.Leo wants a bike, not just any bike but a red one. He makes money by doing part-time jobs until he has enough money to buy it. He loves his new bike and names it Big Red. He rides Big Red everywhere for many years until he is finally too big for it. Because he has taken such good care of the bike, it looks almost new. He wants to give the bike to someone who really needs it, and will love it the way he does. Leo learns about a charity that sends donated bikes to people in Africa.When Big Red arrives in Africa, the bike finds a new owner, a young girl named Alisetta. She learns to ride Big Red and uses it to help her family on their farm. She also rides Big Red to the market to sell goods that her grandmother made. She earns money so her sister can go to school. Alisetta earns enough money to buy another bike. But while she is gone, Big Red is destroyed by a pig. A worker from a hospital then takes Big Red, repairs it, and turns it into an ambulance. Then, a young woman, named Haridata, uses the bike to bring sick people to the hospital.What a wonderful journey the bicycle takes and what a useful life it has. The Red Bicycle is a great story. It will inspire children from around the world to help others, and do something as simple as donating their bikes to charity.13．What is The Red Bicycle about?A．A bicycle making a difference to many people’s lives.B．Leo’s journey from North America to West Africa.C．Jude Isabella’s travel experience in Canada.D．A global journey on a red bicycle.14．How does Leo get his bike?A．He gets it from a charity.B．He borrows it from others.C．He buys it by saving money.D．He receives it through a donation.15．What happens to the red bicycle after Alisetta buys a new one?A．It is brought to patients who need it.B．It is turned into an ambulance.C．It is damaged by her sister.D．It is fixed by Haridata.16．What does The Red Bicycle want to tell its readers?A．We should make the most of what we have.B．Everything is good for something. C．It’s better to give than to take.D．Charity begins at home.二、七选五Walking is kind to our bodies and our waistlines.
