Eighteen months ago, when my cell phone rang, you were walking into Whole Foods 36 to do your grocery shopping, just as I had been only minutes before you.

I remember that I could hear your 46 as you tried to reach my husband for me, leaving an 47 message for him to call me.

Gardens are an increasingly important shelter forwildlife which was forced into withdrawing from the countryside by loss of the natural homes and intensive farming. But the growth in the popularity of artificial lawns, which look like the real thing but require no cutting, watering or fertilizing, means there’s no shelter in an increasing number of Britain’s back gardens.Tim Rumball, editor of Amateur Gar—dening magazine, said: “Artificial grass these days looks great and these days you can buy rolls of it whereas before it was a very specialist thing. It can take people a few minutes to realize they are on an artificial lawn rather than a real one.”Besides the impact on wildlife, a damaging impact has also been had on the wider environment because of replacing real grass. Mr. Rumball said: “Lawns matter a lot. Plants change carbon dioxide into oxygen and if all the lawns are taken away in Britain you will significantly affect the carbon levels in the atmosphere. When grass grows longer, it attracts insects. If you have an artificial lawn then these insects will be reduced and the whole of the food chain will be affected, especially birds that rely on insects for their diet.”Joy Wallis of Dorset Wildlife Trust is also concerned about the trend for artificial grass. “These days, gardens are a shelter for wildlife.” she said “Creatures can’t survive in the countryside because it is so full of chemicals. Birds get absolutely nothing from artificial grass, and they can’t dig for worms or anything like that. It seems a shame that people feel they haven’t got the time or the tendency to look after a lawn.”Robert Radcliffe of Notgrass, which currently sells 10,000 square meters of artificial grass per week, says business is booming, adding, “We started five years ago in the UK and it can transform the way you use the garden. There’s the obvious advantage of no cutting or watering, but also there’s no mud for children or pets to walk through the house.” He disagrees that artificial grass is harmful to the environment and added, “There are ecological benefits. In the long run the effect of artificial grass is outweighed by not having to use a lawnmower, running water or fertilizers.”58.What can we learn from the growing trend for artificial lawns? ______ A.More people are fed up with the real lawns.B.More people prefer the lower price of artificial grass.C.More people believe artificial grass to look really better.D.More people pay less attention to taking care of the environment. 59.What can be inferred from what Robert Redcliffe says? ______ A.Wildlife is likely to be threatened.B.All enjoy the convenience of artificial lawns.C.He focuses on keeping the balance of ecology.D.Parents spend more time accompanying children.60. The author’s real purpose of writing the passage is to_______.A.warn the public against damaging the real lawnsB.emphasize the necessity of limiting artificial lawnsC.provide ways of protecting the living environmentD.give the reasons for the popularity of artificial lawnsCRobotic surgery is one thing, but sending a robot inside the body to carry out an operation quite another, which has long been a goal of some researchers to produce tiny robotic devices being capable of traveling through the body to deliver drugs or to make repairs without the need for a single cut, the possibility of which has just got a bit closer.However, unlike the plot of one film—which featured a microscopic crew and submarine traveling through a scientist’s bloodstream — this device could not be inserted into blood vessels(管)because it is too big. While other types of miniature swallow able robots have been developed in the past, their role has mostly been limited to capturing images inside the body. In a presentation this week to the International Conference, Daniela Rus and Shuhei Miyashita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology described a robot they have developed that can be swallowed and used to collect dangerous objects accidentally taken in.To test their latest version, Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita designed a robot as a battery hunter, which might seem to be an odd task, but more than 3 500 people in America alone, most of them children, swallow the tiny button cells used in small electronic devices by accident every year. To start with, the researchers created an artificial esophagus(食道)and stomach made out of silicone(硅胶). It was closely modeled on that found in a pig and filled with medical liquid; the robot itself is made from several layers of different materials, including pig intestine(肠), and contains a little magnet. This is folded up and encased in a 10mm×27mm capsule of ice. Once this reaches the stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds which is moved and guided with the use of a magnetic field outside the body. In their tests, the robot was able to touch a button battery and draw it with its own magnet, and during dragging it along, the robot could then be directed towards the intestines where it would eventually be gotten rid of through the anus(肛门). After it, the researchers sent in another robot loaded with medication to deliver it to the site of the battery burn to speed up healing.The artificial stomach being transparent on one side, the researchers were able to see the batteries and visually control the robots. If not, that will require help with the help from imaging system, which will be a bit more of a challenge, but Dr. Rus and Dr. Miyashita are determined to succeed.61.According to the passage, the robot operation will probably be able to_________.A.travel through a scientist’s bloodstreamB.photograph the body to convey to the doctorC.enter the body to deliver drugs or make repairsD.operate on a person outside the body completely62.We learn from Paragraph 3that _________.A.the researchers did the experiment on a chosen animalB.the robot took necessary drugs besides a little magnetC.digesting the swallowed batteries is difficult for childrenD.the actual size of the robot may be larger than the capsule of ice 63.What may the experiment mean to the medical world? ______A.The surgeries will cost patients much money.B.Patients will suffer less for some surgeries.C.Fewer children will swallow the button cells.D.A robot will be invented travelling blood vessels.64.Which can be the most suitable title for the passage? ______A.An Experiment on RobotB.Tiny Robot, Significant RoleC.The Fantastic Robotic VoyageD.The Exploration of Robot TechnologyDNelle Harper Lee, better known by her pen name Harper Lee, was an American novelist widely known for To Kill a Mockingbird, published in 1960. Immediately successful, it won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and has become a classicof modern American literature. In 1991an organization conducted a survey that made readers identify books that had “made a difference” in their lives. The result? Lee’s book trailed only The Bible. Alongside the works of Shakespeare and Twain, this novel remains one of the most widely taught books nationwide, reaching about 70% of American public schools. What makes it such a typical read for young people?English class is a place where young Americans come to know themselves. In the folds of dusty books, students can make contact with humanity beyond the shallow small talk of the school hallways. Disturbed by hormones and anxiety, teenagers get through school with confusion and frustration. Literature is a safety valve(安全阀)—it promises relief, a place to figure out one’s problems and get to know oneself better.The novel particularly distinguishes itself in this aspect. It speaks in a child’s voice without treating its readership as children. Some critics have called it an ‘impossible’ achievement, a children’s book penned by a well-educated adult — it’s unlikely that a child like Scout could exist in the real world. But that’s exactly what makes it such a charming, attractive read for young people. It indicates the consciousness of a well-educated adult facing difficult realities, but describes it through the light and playful voice of a curious little girl.Gaby Hick, a third-year student focused on English literature at Brown University, calls it “one of the first books that kids and young adults read that deals with serious issues — rape, race, mental issues”. She adds, “The storymakes these adult themes accessible because of Scout.” The book’s setting, a small town in Alabama affected by the Great Depression of the 1930s, may appear very different from the experience of most kids reading it today. But Lee’s words make her story feel alive and present.In 2006, however, critic Thomas Mallon expressed his regret about the book’s avoiding moral complexity in The New Yorker. But her novel makes a great teaching tool for teenagers precisely because its moral view is as clear as that of one of Aesop’s fables. That absence of ambiguity in this novel doesn’t mean the novel is free of challenging ideas, either. Will Serratelli, another literature student at Brown says, “There aren’t many hard moral questions being asked…but it opens up all these other questions that I hadn’t thought about before. My English teachers always asked, ‘Do you sympathize with this character? Would you want to hang out with them?’ When you give a kid a book where those questions don’t even need to be asked, it forces them to dig deeper.”Mallon’s criticism is accurate in that this novel may present too limited a view of racism in America. That’s especially problematic because it is one of the only books consistently assigned to American students that acknowledges racial discrimination at all. However, To Kill a Mockingbird may owe some of its popularity as a teaching text to the fact that the narrative voice is a white one. Naomi Varnis, an African Studies student at Brown says, “It’s another practice of telling stories about black people through white central characters,” she says.While the novel is undoubtedly worth its place in the classroom, Englishteachers may do well to consider that it is a white author’s perspective—and ought to be the only beginning of a dialogue about race and never the final word. But as a gateway to more mature ideas, and as a YA (young adult) distillation (提炼)of complex concepts young people may not have grasped before, Lee’s novel is invaluable.65.According the passage, the novel To Kill a Mockingbird can help us_________.A.know more about the past U.S. economic situationB.understand what the real personality of human isC.reduce much anxiety for fear of losing ourselvesD.find and deal with some other complicated questions66.What does the underlined word “trailed” most probably mean in Paragraph 1? ______A.Was as good as. B.Tried hard to defeat.C.Went along the same route as. D.Had a lower score than. 67.What can we conclude from Will Serratelli’s statement underlined in Paragraph 5? ______A. The kids are motivated to think further.B. The kids have to face more moral questions.C. The kids tend to sympathize with the characters.D. The kids are unwilling to answer challenging questions.68.Why is the novel well received by teenagers in the US? ______A.Because it reveals racial discrimination in America.B.Because it makes some serious adult issues accessible.C.Because a white author tells the stories about black people.D.Because it is widely used as a tool for moral judgments in society. 69.Who points out straight the shortcoming of the novel? ______ A.Thomas Mallon. B.Naomi Varnis. C.Will Serratelli. D.Gaby Hick.70. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? ______A.To tell us about the content of the novel.B.To introduce some different comments.C.To explain the reasons for its popularity.D.To approve of the creative writing style.第Ⅳ卷第四部分:任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词.注意:请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上.每个空格只填一个单词.Are we more narcissistic than ever before?Like the flower, narcissism(自恋)has continued to flourish in modern civilization, which has become such a part of culture. But narcissism in psychology is more than a single question can capture, which really has threetypes of narcissism. Problems arise when people discuss narcissism without identifying the form.Grandiose(浮夸)narcissism is the outgoing, extraverted(外向)form. The narcissistic individual believes he or she is smarter, better looking and more important than others. And, of course, he or she gets special treatment for this fact. In fact, some of them can be very charming, likable and enjoy people. On the opposite side, narcissistic relationships are often not very emotionally warm or caring.Vulnerable(脆弱)narcissism is the second flavor of narcissism. It is harder to see than grandiose narcissism. Vulnerable narcissists think they have the right to get special treatment and greatness but actually have low self-confidence and are not typically extraverteD.Imagine someone living in his mum’s small room. He spends his evenings watching X Factor believing he should be the next famous star singing act. Unfortunately, he hasn’t the confidence to do it and instead becomes a net citizen, who posts offensive, controversial, or divisive materials on an Internet community.The third form of narcissism occurs when narcissism is extreme and causes clinically serious problems in a person’s life – marriages fall apart, friends are lost, a career is over. When this occurs narcissism can be identified as a personality disorder – narcissistic personality disorder (also known as NPD), containing a mix of both grandiose and vulnerable narcissism,Can you change narcissism or NPD? There is no simple answer to this. Forgrandiose narcissism, what I often do is suggest practicing caring and compassion, doing what you are passionate about rather than what gets you attention and being responsible for your mistakes as well as successes. For vulnerable narcissism I would add to this list with practices that reduce depression and anxiety. Develop a sense of belonging or a friendship network; participate in physical exercise; or practice a form of emptying your mind of thoughts and feelings. For NPD, there is no single, scientifically affirmed treatment of choice. But pay attention to the following. First, people with NPD are often reluctant to enter treatment because in their mind they do not have a problem – everyone else does. Second, it is challenging for doctors to keep individuals with NPD in treatment.Narcissism is increasing and while social media hasn’t been proven to actually create narcissists, it does give them a new platform to gain attention and admiration.

DESPITE THIS, THE FULL STORY OF THIS REVOLUTIONARY FORCE HAS REMAINED UNTOLD—UNTIL NOW.Simply Electrifying offers the comprehensive story of one of mankind's most important journeys: from a time when only a few could even imagine a world with electricity to today when, for most of us, a world without electricity would be unimaginable.Since the birth of the modern science of electricity 265 years ago, mankind has built an impressive structure to produce, deliver, and use electricity, thanks to a combination of pioneering science, innovative technology, wise business strategy, and pervasive(到处存在的)economic and environmental regulation.Simply Electrifying brings to life the stories of the people that made it all possible—from early pathfinders like Benjamin Franklin, Michael Faraday, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein to innovators such as Samuel Morse, Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse, and Nikola Tesla. In modern times, business strategists and economic and environmental regulation driven by many, including President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rachel Carson, and even President Barack Obama, have shaped how we use and understand electricity in crucial ways. Today, Elon Musk and others are on the edge of again changing the way we think about and interact with it.Simply Electrifying is painstakingly researched and beautifully written, showing us how both profit—makers and policy—makers must use a wide—angle lens to truly understand the past and predict the future.(1) According to the passage, the book Simply Electrifying is written to tellus.A. pioneering science of electricityB. significant journeys of electricityC. the people who invented electricityD. the research which was about electricity(2) Why is President Barack Obama mentioned in the book Simply Electrifying?A.

Yet how parents make demands can powerfully influence a child's social skills, psychologists at the University of Virginia recently found after the conclusion of a study investigating the transition from adolescence to adulthood.Initially 184 13-year-olds filled out multiple surveys, including one to assess how often their parents employed psychologically controlling strategies, such as inducing guilt or threatening to withdraw affection. The kids rated, for example, how typical it would be for Dad to suggest that "if I really cared for him, I would not do things that caused him to worry" or for Mom to become "less friendly when I did not see things her way."The researchers followed up with the subjects at ages 18 and 21, asking the young adults to bring along a close friend and, later, a romantic partner if they had one. These pairs were asked to answer hypothetical(假设的)questions that were purposefully written to inspire a difference of opinion. "We wanted to see whether they could navigate a disagreement in a healthy way, " says study leader Barbara Oudekerk, now at the U. S. Department of Justice's bureau of statistics.In the October issue of Child Development, Oudekerk and her colleagues report that the 13-year-olds who had highly controlling parents struggled in friendly disagreements at age 18. They had difficultystating their opinions in a confident, reasoned manner in comparison to the kids without controlling parents. And when they did speak up, they often failed to express themselves in warm and productive ways.The researchers suspect that pushy parents ruin their child's ability to learn how to argue his or her own viewpoint in other relationships. Although parents do need to set boundaries,TAL#NBSP domineering strategies imply that any disagreement will damage the bond itself. Separate findings suggest that parents who explain the reasons behind their rules and turn disagreements into conversations leave youngsters better prepared for future arguments.The consequences of tense or domineering relationships appear to get worse with time. This study also found that social difficulties at 18 predicted even poorer communication abilities at age 21. Psychologist Shmuel Shulman of BarIlan University in Israel, who did not participate in the work, thinks these conclusions convincingly reveal how relationship patterns "carry forward" into new friendships.(1) What will happen to the teenagers with pushy parents?A. They lose social skills.B. They have trouble presenting opinions.C. They express themselves in an aggressive way.D. They fail to inspire a difference of opinion.(2) What does the underlined word "domineering" in Paragraph 5 mean?A. alternativeB. conservativeC. powerfulD. forceful(3) It can be inferred from the findings that parents should.A. communicate with children when setting rulesB. learn new ways to establish new friendshipsC. seek more controlling strategiesD. help children develop abilities to follow rules19、【来源】 2018年江苏无锡高三一模第51~54题8分(每题2分)2018年江苏常州高三一模第51~54题8分(每题2分)2018年江苏苏州高三一模第51~54题8分(每题2分)2017~2018学年3月江苏苏州高三下学期月考苏州、无锡、常州、镇江四市联考(C篇)第61~64题8分2017~2018学年3月江苏镇江月考第61~64题8分Exposing living tissue to subfreezing temperatures for long can cause permanent damage. Microscopic ice crystals (结晶体) cut cells and seize moisture (潮气), making donor organs unsuitable for transplantation. Thus, organs can be made cold for only a few hours ahead of a procedure. But a set of lasting new antifreeze compounds (化合物)—similar to those found in particularly hardy (耐寒的) animals—could lengthen organs' shelf life.Scientists at the University of Warwick in England were inspired by proteins in some species of Arctic fish, wood frogs and other organisms that prevent blood from freezing, allowing them to flourish in extreme cold. Previous research had shown these natural antifreeze molecules (分子) could preserve rat hearts at—1.3 degrees Celsius for up to 24 hours. But these proteins are expensive to extract (提取) and highly poisonous to some species. "For a long time everyone assumed you had to make synthetic (人造的) alternatives that looked exactly like antifreeze proteins to solve this problem, "says Matthew Gibson, a chemist at Warwick who co—authored the new research. "But we found that you can design new molecules that function like antifreeze proteins but do not necessarily look like them. "Most natural antifreeze molecules have a mixture of regions that either attract or repel water. Scientists do not know exactly how this process prevents ice crystal formation, but Gibson thinks it might throw water molecules into push—pull chaos that prevents them from turning into ice. To copy this mechanism, he and his colleagues synthesized spiral—shaped molecules that were mostly water—repellent—but had iron atoms at their centers that made them hydrophilic, or water—loving. The resulting compounds were surprisingly effective at stopping ice crystals from forming. Some were also harmless to the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, indicating they might be safe for other animals."These compounds are really cool because they are not proteins—they are other types of molecules that nonetheless can do at least part of what natural antifreeze proteins do, "says Clara do Amaral, a biologist at Mount St. Joseph University, who was not involved in the research. Gibson's antifreeze compounds will still need to be tested in humans, however, and may be only part of a solution. "We don't have the whole picture yet, "do Amaral adds. "It's not just one magical compound that helps freeze—tolerant organisms survive. It's a whole suite of adaptations.(1) What will happen if organs are kept for a long time in temperatures below zero?A. They will have ice crystal formation inside.B. They will not suffer permanent damage.C. They will have longer shelf life.D. They will be fit for transplantation.(2) What can we learn about natural antifreeze proteins?A. They look like Gibson's antifreeze compounds.B. They are composed of antifreeze molecules harmless to other species.C. They are spiral-shaped and have iron atoms at their centers.D. They can be found in organisms living in freezing cold weather.(3) How are antifreeze molecules prevented from ice crystals?A. By creating compounds both water-repellent and water-loving.B. By extracting the proteins from some hardy animals.C. By making synthetic alternatives like antifreeze proteins.D.

Those golden days in which I would leave the house after a still sleepy, leisurely breakfast and come home only for lunch in the middle of a day spent entirely outdoors. We did not live in town and, thus, playmates were limited to siblings (兄弟姐妹) and the cousins who lived down the road.Our backyard became the playground in which our imaginations would run wild—turning those few acres into magical forests, the creek (小溪) into a violent river and our trusty dog, Rex, into the many roles of horse, monster and any other creature that we children did not want to play. By the end of the three months of summer break we were sunburned from our hours in the sun, full of the memories of a thousand magical moments and bonded to our siblings in a way that winter's forced hibernation (冬眠) never seemed to connect us.Today, I live on the same acreage that I did as a child. My children have the blessing of having the same grassy patches to scratch their bare feet as they run through it, the same creek to stomp(跺脚)through, and not the same dog—but their very own energetic pup to imagine away the days with.However, this is not the same world as it was twenty, thirty years ago. There are screens everywhere in the house to demand attention—televisions with hundreds of channels, computers with access to a thousand entertaining sites, tablets stocked with apps. There is also no longer the expectation of a stretch of an unscheduled three months. Their school friends tell competitive stories of carefully planned vacations, spending time traveling to all of the local attractions—various parks, the zoo, the science center, all of the festivals which come breezing through town. On the very first day of school they will be asked to list their favorite activities of the summer and no longer are these lists filled with things like finding wood to make a bridge over a creek or a day spent in imaginative play with their siblings. The lists are now full of trips, overscheduled days and "camps" that no longer offer a stay in nature.Our children have become used to being entertained every minute. In our house, we have limits on electronics and kick the kids outside on a nice day. Even as we try as parents to set limits and get our children out in nature, the new cry of childhood seems to be "I'm bored," which is not really just meaning "I'm bored," "but "Please find something to entertain me, as I no longer can entertain myself even for a short period of time. " Our children no longer know how to sit in silence, entertain themselves while even waiting for a few minutes and have lost the awe of nature as they have become addicted to screen time.We have made a choice in this household to do what is no longer expected of children in many households—we will ensure that there are days of "boredom. " We refuse to spend our days scheduling our children's every hour. There will be many days with no plans at all, when they will be sent outside with only the grass and the trees and their own imaginations to entertain them.The screens will be turned off and our children will find that times of quiet can be just as or even more entertaining. They will bond with their brother and sister, making memories that they will replay in their minds well into adulthood. Even though sunscreen will be religiously applied, they will leave summer with sunburned and scratches coming from climbing trees, stomping through creeks and chasing the dog in the field.This summer I will be giving my children the greatest gift of all—boredom. For inside boredom is the gift of getting to know your own mind, of finding comfort and joy in nature and in the realization that the greatest gifts are experience, not things.(1) From the first two paragraphs we can know that the author.A. participated in many organized activitiesB. enjoyed an unscheduled vacationC. explored magical forests and a violent riverD. realized the strength of patience(2) The author thinks today's children's activities are.A. less meaningfulB. less accessibleC. more related to natureD. more in line with the nature of play(3) What is the real reason for children's feeling of boredom?A.

We imagine the satisfaction of traveling to exciting places or being surrounded by expensive devices. If we cannot afford those goals, then we are happy to settle for a quiet evening in front of the television set with a drink close by.Pleasure is a feeling of contentment that one achieves whenever expectations set by biological programs or by social conditioning have been met. The taste of food when we are hungry is pleasant because it reduces a physiological(生理的)imbalance. Resting in the evening while passively absorbing information from TV, with alcohol or drugs to dull the mind overexcited by the demands of work, is pleasantly relaxing. Traveling to Acapulco is pleasant because the exciting novelty(新奇)restores our sensations(感觉)exhausted by the repetitive routines of everyday life.When people think further about what makes their lives rewarding, they tend to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap(重叠)with pleasurable ones but fall into a category that deserves a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events occur when a person has not only met some expectation or satisfied a need or a desire but also gone beyond what he or she has been programmed to do and achieved something unexpected, perhaps something even unimagined before.Enjoyment is characterized by this forward movement: by a sense of novelty, of accomplishment. Playing a close game of tennis that stretches one's ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that reveals things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn't know we had. Closing a contested business deal, or any piece of work well done, is enjoyable. None of these experiences may be particularly pleasurable at the time they are taking place, but afterward we think back on them and say, "That really was fun" and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, that our self has grown: in some respect, we have become more complex as a result of it.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two sensations are quite different. For instance, everybody takes pleasure in eating. To enjoy food, however, is more difficult. A gourmet(美食家)enjoys eating, as does anyone who pays enough attention to a meal so as to discriminate the various sensations provided by it. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any investment of psychic energy, whereas enjoyment happens only as a result of unusual investments of attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, but it is impossible to enjoy a tennis game, a book, or a conversation unless attention is fully concentrated on the activity.Pleasure and Enjoyment四、书面表达(共25分)22、【来源】 2018年江苏无锡高三一模第71题25分2018年江苏苏州高三一模第71题25分2018年江苏常州高三一模第71题25分请认真阅读下面有关图片及文字,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
