2014届茂名市高三上期第一次模拟考试英语2高考英语2014-01-29 0851childhood disease.Living with a smoker has been shown to increase the risk of coronary heart disease (冠心病) among non-smokers by 25-30% (a recent study indicates that this figure may actually be higher). There is also growing evidence that passive smoking is causally linked to stroke in non-smokers, although further research is needed to estimate the risk.Second-hand smoke is especially dangerous for young children and infants, being associated with sudden infant death, pneumonia, bronchitis (支气管炎), asthma (哮喘) and respiratory symptoms as well as middle ear disease. ETS exposure in pregnant women can cause lower birth weight, foetal (胎儿的) death and preterm delivery.Most of the adverse health outcomes brought about by ETS show thatthe risk increases steadily with increasing exposure. The level of individual risk is lower compared to active smoking. Nevertheless,the fact that large numbers of people are exposed results in a substantial burden of disease.Action on smoke-free environments would not only protect people from the harm of ETS exposure but also contribute to the reduction of tobacco consumption in the whole population. The health effects of reduced passive and active smoking would include reduced illness and death from major disease types-in particular lung cancer, coronary heart disease, and stroke-and increased life expectancy.51. Which of the following statements is true? _______A. Although ETS contains many harmful things, it is not unsafe.B. The fact that second-hand smoke is safe has been recently found.C. It is expected that further research will be done to test the level of ETS.D. By far the safe level of ETS has not been found and will not in the future.52. Cardiovascular disease can be caused by _______.A. long time passive smokingB. accidental active smokingB. occasional passive smoking D. short term active smoking53. According to the article, the statements about the risk of coronary heart disease are wrong EXCEPT that________A. if you smoke, the risk of this disease will increase by 25-30%.B. the non-smokers exposed to smoke will increase the risk of this disease by 25-30%.C. for the smokers, the risk of getting this disease is higher than that of the non-smokers.D. the non-smokers exposed to smoke will be more easily to get this disease than the smokers.54. What does the underlined word “delivery” mean? ________.A. Transferring to anotherB. Giving birthC. Throwing awayD. Giving out55. What’s the author’s main purpose in writing this passage?______A. To introduce what is ETS.B. To tell the readers how to avoid ETS.C. To call for the action against ETS.D. To warn the readers against smoking.第二节信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分2014分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

广东省六校2014届高三上学期第一次联考（英语）2高考英语2014-15 1911lifeboats. Cao’s one-year-old son was the youngest passenger on board.The “Liaoludu 7” was traveling in the Bohai Straits from Lvshun in Liaoning Province to the port city of Longkou in Shandong Province.It suddenly lost its power at 230 pm and tilted（倾斜）on its side. With 81 people on board, the ferry（渡船）began to sink.“I was so scared that my legs couldn’t move forward. They kept shaking even when I was asked to jump onto a lifeboat,” Cao recalled.Upon receiving the may·day appeal（紧急呼救）, China Marine Search and Rescue Centre immediately informed the State Council. The center sent eight lifeboats to the sinking ship and asked for help from the Ministry of Agriculture, the Navy and nearby fishing boats.After more than four hours of fighting strong winds and freezing ocean water, the passengers were rescued. All but four survived. These four died after spending too long time in the freezing waters, according to a spokesperson for the Beijing-based center.56. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The film “Titanic” had been on show again in Shanghai.B. Cao’s two-year-old son was the youngest passenger on board.C. “Liaoludu 7” with all passengers on board survived.D. The ferry began to sink on the way to the port of Shangdong Province.57. The underlined word “scared” in paragraph 4 means“__________” in English.A. anxiousB. unfortunateC.disappointed D. frightened58. From the passage we can infer that __________.A. China Marine Search and Rescue Centre quickly carried out the rescue taskB. the center sent eight lifeboats and asked for help from the United NationsC. the passengers were fighting strong winds and freezing ocean water for one hourD. the ferry sank into the sea immediately it tilted on its side at 230 pmBThroughout the Depression（经济萧条）years, my brothers, sisters and I often heard our granny say，“One of these days, my ship is coming in.” Of course Granny’s ship was just a dream---her escape from the reality of being poor most of her life. But to us it was very real.Our family got by with the barest（最少）of necessities, there rarely was enough left over for special desires. So if we wished for other things, we told Granny about them, and she would plan for them to be aboard her ship.At times we kids worried greatly as to how the ship was going to arrive at Granny’s house in the deep pine woods of East Texas, miles from any waterway. One day when Granny was sitting with us on her front porch, we asked her how she expected the ship to come. Shifting in her rocking chair, she pointed to the beautiful clouds floating in the bright blue sky.“Why, children,” she explained，“Granny’s ship has big beautiful sails. Some day it will rise up on clouds like those, and come floating right up to the front door.”As we grew older, our childish wishes for BB guns, baby dolls and mohair sweaters were replaced by dreams of an education, a job or a lovely wedding. We told Granny of those goals and she put each one aboard her ship.Granny has been gone a long time now, but I still remember how we sat with her on the porch scanning the skies for her help. She never told us the name of it, but I think perhaps it was “Hope”. For Granny told us to have patience, to reach beyond our limitation, and many of our dreams and wishes did indeed come true.Even now, sometimes, when the skies are brilliantly blue, with soft puffy clouds sailing along with the breeze（微风）, I look up---to see Granny’s ship. Its sails are full and proud. It is a beautiful ship, carrying a wonderful cargo of many packages of many sizes---all marked “From Granny. With Love.”59. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Our DreamB. Granny’s ShipC. The Depression YearsD. Granny’s Wisdom60. From the text, we know .A. Granny has been dead for a long timeB. Granny used to have unpractical ideas about lifeC. Granny’s ship arrived at lastD. Granny has moved to the city61. We can infer from the text that the writer’s familylived .A. in a cityB. in granny’s shipC. in a mountainous villageD. at the seaside62. What does the underlined word “them” in the second paragraph refer to in the passage?A. our necessitiesB. our wishesC. the childrenD. packagesCLuggageWe ask you to keep what you bring with you down to one medium-sized suitcase per person on board the bus.Seat Arrangements（安排）Special needs for particular seats can be made on most bus breaks when booking, but since arrangements are made on a first-come-first-served basis, early booking is advisable. When bookings are made with us, you will be offered the best seats we have on the bus at that time.Travel DocumentsWhen you have paid your deposit（订金）, we will send you all the necessary documents, so that you receive them in good time before the bus break departure（出发）date.

This will be passed on to the hotel or hotels on your bus break. However, on certain bus breaks, the hotels used are tourist class and they may not be able to prepare special diets. Any extra costs must be paid to the hotel yourself before leaving the hotel.ProgramsSome of our hotels arrange extra programs which include music, dancing and film shows, etc. They are all offered by the hotel, but not guaranteed（保证）.63. If you want to sit in the front of the bus, you’d better__________.A. say it when you get on the busB. arrive early on the departure dateC. book your seat ahead of timeD. avoid traveling at busy times64.

Extra programs are __________.A. offered by the bus companyB. offered by the hotel, but may not runC. offered by the hotel at any timeD. an extra offer, so extra money must be paidDDogs are known for their sense of smell. They can find missing people and things like bombs and illegal drugs. Now a study suggests that the animal known as man’s best friend can even find bladder（膀胱）cancer.Cancer cells are thought to produce chemicals with unusual odors（气味）. Researchers think dogs have the ability to smell these odors, even in very small amounts, in urine（尿）. The sense of smell in dogs is thousands of times better than in humans.The study follows reports of cases where, for example, a dog showed great interest in a growth on the leg of its owner. The man was later found to be skin cancer.Carolyn Willis led a team of researchers at Amersham Hospital in England. They trained different kinds of dogs for the experiment. The study involved urine collected from bladder cancer patients, from people with other diseases and from healthy people.Each dog was tested 8 times. In each test there were 7 samples for the dogs to smell. The dog should signal the one from a bladder cancer patient by lying down next to it. Two cocker dogs were correct 56 percent of the time. But the scientists reported an average success rate of 41 percent.The British Medical Journal published the research. In all, 36 bladder cancer patients and 20148 other people took part. During training, all the dogs reportedly even identified（认出）a cancer ina person who had tested healthy before the study. Doctors found a growth on the person’s right kidney（肾）.Carolyn Willis says dogs could help scientists identify the combined chemicals produced by bladder cancer. That information could then be used to develop machines to test for the chemicals. The team also plans to use dogs to help identify markers for other kinds of cancer.67. What’s the general idea of the text?A. Dogs have a good sense of smellB. Dogs can help cure cancerC. Dogs can smell cancerD. Dogs help perform experiments68. According to the text, people who suffer bladder cancer_____A. often have urine with unusual smellB. probably smoke cigarettes in their lifeC. can easily make dogs lie downD. are likely to die within nine years69. The underlined word “involved” in the text is closest in meaning to _____.A. showedB. provedC. usedD. preferred70. What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A. Dogs can only smell bladder cancer.B. Dogs have a good knowledge of cancer.C. Scientists might invent some equipment to test cancer.D. Cancer doesn’t have any sign in the beginning.第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共35分）第四部分：写（共三节，满分35分）第一节单词拼写（共2014小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）根据所给中文或首字母写出单词的适当形式。

AA man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.Three minutes went by, and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace, and stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet his schedule.A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till without stopping, and continued to walk.A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man lookedat his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work.The one who paid the most attention was a 3-year-old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This action was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition.No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth $3.5 million dollars. ks5uTwo days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theater in Boston where the seats averaged $100.This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment.The outlines were: in a commonplace（普通的）environment at an inappropriate hour: Do we enjoy beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected situation?One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing?”26. Few people stopped to listen to Joshua Bell playing because____________.A. people were in a hurryB. they were not interested in musicC. it was too cold in the subwayD. the performance was not good enough27. When children stopped to look at the violinist, their parents ____________.A. would give him some moneyB. would stop to enjoy the musicC.would applaud for the performanceD. would urge them to continue walking28. Which of the following is true about Joshua Bell’s performance?A. Nobody gave him moneyB. Nobody recognized him. ks5uC.Nobody appreciated itD. Nobody organized it29.Joshua Bell played in the metro station in order to ____________.A. make more moneyB. practice his skills in playing musicC. made an advertisement for his concertD. find out people’s reaction under such a circumstance30. The purpose of the passage is to _________.A．set us to think about our lifeB．show us how to play musicC．tell us the importance of musicD．report a subway performanceBKids undergo a large amount of pressure and stress during their school exams, which can often become quite overwhelming for them. It may be the first experience of stress, at this level, they have ever experienced and therefore quite frightening. Yes, you may say that it's all a part of growing up and therefore good lessons for them to learn, and to an extent I agree with you. H owever, it’s important to learn how to prepare for life’s challenges so that they aren’t overwhelming or scary and so that we are able to manage them the best we can.Here are some tips you can use during your kids exam time.Break their revision plan down into small parts. Doing this will help transform what once seemed like a huge impossible task into a more manageable one.Help them arrange properly so that the subjects they like the least (perhaps ones that require more time and effort) are worked on first; once they are out of the way, it will help reduce the worry.Plan week on week to make sure they are on track. Ticking items of a list each week will help them to feel good about themselves and their progress.Create rewards for all the ticks - a favourite TV programme, a delicious snack, an hour’s surfing the Internet, computer games or whatever it was that they enjoy the most. This will encourage them to carry on and make them feel good.Think of strategies on how to deal with exams calmly so their anxieties don't get the better of them.Talk about times in their lives when they had been successful at something and look at the qualities they used to get them there - determination, persistence, hard work, patience, positivity, dedication - discuss how they can apply these skills to their exams.Acknowledge that if they do their best that is good enoughEnsure they realize that this period in their lives will pass and that exams are only a temporary time in their lives; nothing can and does last forever.Ensure they keep their eye on the prize: enjoying their long summer holiday when the exams are finished; giving them something to look forward to will help to motivate them and provide a positive end in sight.31. According to paragraph 1, it’s import ant to learn how to prepare for exams because___.A. it is a part of growing up.B. It is the first experience of stressC. it helps kid release stress and do better.D. it is important to get a good mark in exams.32. Which subjects should be worked on first?A.Their best ones.B. Their favourite ones.C. the easiest onesD. the most difficult ones33. The underlined expression get the better of in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______.A. defeatB. worryC. keep sb. calmD. make sb. feel better34. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A.Kid should become aware of the importance of exams.B.Kids should learn to deal with exam pressure independently.C.Parents should keep their kids away from entertainment.D.Parents should care about the psychological development of children.35. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Kids.B. Parents.C. Educators.D. People in general.CThe rise in smartphones（智能手机）among young people may be having a direct effect on how successful they become as adults.Research from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has discovered the average university student checks their phones 11 times per lesson, and more than 80 per cent believe this tech addiction is interfering with their learning.A quarter of students across five U.S states also blamed poor grades in exams specifically on the fact they used mobile devices（设备）when they should have been concentrating and revising - and these grades could determine the jobs they end up going into.Barney McCoy, an associate professor of broadcasting at the university, surveyed 777 students at six universities across five states about how they used digital devices in the classroom.The students were from UNL and the University of Nebraska at Omaha in Nebraska, Morningside College in Iowa, the University of North Carolina, the University of Kansas and the University of Mississippi.Around two thirds said they used phones, tablets and laptops for “non-classroom purposes” up to ten times during a typica l university day, while 15 per cent admitted this figure was closer to 30 times.Among the top reasons why students checked their devices so regularly were staying connected and fighting boredom, at 55 per cent. Less than half said the devices were used for classwork.Texting was the most popular distraction（注意力分散）technique at 86 per cent, while 68 per cent said they used their phones to check personal emails. Two thirds used social networks, 38 per cent surfed the web and eight per cent admitted to playing games when they should have been studying.Despite eight out of ten students admitting their devices were distracting, fewer than five per cent considered it to be a “very big” distraction.“I don’t think students necessarily think it’s a big problem,”said McCoy said. “They think it’s part of their lives.”“It’s become automatic behaviour on the part of so many people - they do it without even thinking about it.”He continued, “They’ve got their laptops open, but they’re not always taking notes. Some might have two screens open -- Facebook and their notes.”36. The majority of the students think that using smartphones _________ .A. helps to improve their grades.B. contributed to their poor grades.C. has a bad effect on their studies.D. determines their jobs in the future.37. How many students surveyed used digital devices for “non-classroom purposes” about 30 times during a day?A. About 518B. About 116C. About 427D. Less than 38838. _________ was the most popular form of distraction.A. TextingB. playing gamesC. surfing the webD. Checking personal emails39. Which of the following is true?A. Barney McCoy surveyed 777 students at the university he works in.B. A minority of the students said they used digital devices for classwork.C. Around two thirds admitted they used digital devices because lessons are boring.D. Barney McCoy thinks students’ using digital devices is not a big problem.40. The text is most likely to be found in a section about _________ .A. successful peopleB. political systemsC. science and technologyD. historical eventsDEngineers David Sheffield and Doug Watt volunteer for a charity group called Remap. It designs technology to help disabled people.The two engineers are designing a wheelchair for Shot Put thrower Shaun Sewell. He lost the use of his legs thirteen years ago in a motorcycle accident. David Sheffield predicts the new wheelchair design will be used as a model for future athletes. He says, “We were asked to make a chair which was totally adjustable in every way so that we could then use it not only just for Shaun but for other athletes. And then we could find the exact correct positions for the way they sit, the way they hold the pole, the way they lean back and so on.”The engineers took all of Shaun Sewell’s measurements so that the chair was perfectly designed for his body. They also spent time watching him throw, to see how his body moves and where extra support was needed.Shaun Sewell almost went to the Paralympic Games（残奥会）in Beijing in 2008. But he was unable to compete because of a life-threatening infection（感染）. He hopes to attend the 2016 games in Rio de Janiero. And he says the new wheelchair could help him get there. He says, “I believe it's going to make a huge difference. I'm throwing really well with the frame that I have now, which is not right for me. So to have something right is only going to help improve my distance.”Peter Parry, chairman of the trustees at Remap, says its volunteers built devices for three of the athletes at the Paralympic Games in London. He says there are many rules about what technology is permitted. He says, “We can help them support themselves. We can providethem with the pole to help them balance their body. But what we can’t do i s to have things like springs or hydraulics（液压装置）, which would give them an unfair advantage，because then it becomes a battle of who can make the best device rather than who is the best athlete.”41. The Engineers make the wheelchair adjustable in order that_______ .A. it could be used easily by Shaun Sewell.B. it could also be used by other disabled athletesC. they could take all of Shaun Sewell’s measurementsD. Shaun Sewell could compete in the Paralympic Games42. Which of the following is true about Shaun Sewell?A. He became disabled in a traffic accident. ks5uB. He is one of the designers of the wheelchair.C. He won a prize in the Beijing Paralympic Games.D. He is recognized as a model for future athletes43. What does the underlined part “to have something right” (in Paragraph 4) mean?A. To have a good shot.B. To have a better coach.C. To own a suitable wheelchair.D. To attend the 2016 games in Rio de Janiero.44. We can learn from the last paragraph that _______ .A. Designing devices is a battle of who can make the best deviceB. the designers must consider the fairness of the competitionC. using the new wheelchair means winning the Paralympic GamesD. the designers can use any technology to ensure p aralympians’ success.45. Which of the following titles best summarizes the main idea of the passage?A. A Magic Wheelchair Designed for Disabled Athletes.B. A Wheelchair Designed to Develop the Best Athletes.C. Two Engineers Working as V olunteers for Charity Group.D. Technology Designed to Take Disabled Athletes to New Levels.第二节信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
