高考英语二模试卷题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AMany of the most striking beasts on the planet come in only two colors:black and white.These high-contrast markings represent some of the nature's most diverse evolutionary choices .For some animals,black -and- white coloring is a way to war off natural enemies.For others,to keep insects away.For still others,it creates a clever cover.Spend some time exploring what science has discovered about these animals' appearances,and you will see that basic black and white isn't so basic after all.SkunkDepending on the species,black skunks may wear white spots that act as a cover or white stripes(条纹)that signal enemies to watch out for their smelly spray.Giant PandaResent insights into panda coloring have come from studying each body part separately.Black ears indicate fierceness,and distinct eye patches aid in individual recognition.The panda in white body hides it against snow,white its dark limbs(四肢)keep it from being spotted in forests, a compromise developed from its poor bamboo diet:Bamboo doesn't let pandas build up enough fat to hibernate(冬眠),forcing them to spend winters in the snow.BadgerEven when a badger is in its cave,its facial stripes can be seen,Zoologists say the warning coloration helps the small animal prevent natural enemies.Blackbuck(male)In bright sun ,the buck's white stomach reduces the effect of the shadow cast by his back,allowing him to appear one color and two dimensional---especially hiding from naturalenemies in his own shadown.1.Which animals can use their color to warn of natural enemies?______A. Skunk and BadgerB. Giant panda and ZebraC. Badger and BlackbuckD. Zebra and Blackbuck2.White body and dark limbs help the giant panda to ______ .A. show fiercenessB. store fatC. recognize individualsD. take cover3.What can be a suitable title for the text?______A.

What science has discovered about different colorsBWhen the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris (巴黎圣母院)was on fire,it seemed as if the nation had lost a piece of its soul. A similar tragedy took place in 19th century Russia.And the rebuilding effort of the Russians might offer some inspiration for the French,Standing in the heart of the Russian capital,with 60,000 square meters of floor space and 1,500 rooms,the Winter Palace was among the world's grandest building.On Dec.17,1873, a fire broke out at the Winter Palace.By the morning of Dec.19,only the structure's framework remained.For the czar (沙皇),the fire presented a political challenge.Fearing that Russia's enemies would cast the fire as a blow to the czarist orders,the czar's supporters quickly worked together to shape the description of the fire in Russia and abroad.They wanted the country to appear united.And they certainly didn't want despair to become the story.The first full account of the fire was written in French by the poet Petr Viazemskii. A Russian translation appeared two months later.That text and others painted a highly idealized picture of the response to the tragedy.The accounts noted that the czar forcefully directed the fire's containment.Soldiers were selfless to save the palace.The Russian people felt the loss just as deeply as the czar.To erase the shame of the fire,the czar set a nearly impossible goal:rebuild the palace within 15 months,and he ordered that rebuilt palace book exactly as it had before.Thousands of workers labored on the construction site.They made rapid progress.On Match 25,1839,the czar celebrated the rebirth of the Winter Palace.Outwardly identical to the old version,the new palace featured more iron and brick in its structures---and less wood.It was far less fire-prone than the original.Notre Dame hasn't experienced the same level of destruction as the Winter Palace,if the Russian phoenix of 1839 is any indication,there is hope that a renewed Notre Dame will once again grace the banks of the Seine.4.What do we know about the fire in the Winter Palace?______A. It burnt down 60,000 roomsB. It lasted more than 24 hoursC. It was set by Russia's enemiesD. It completely destroyed the palace5.Why did the czar decide to rebuild the palace in a short time?______A. To secure his powerB. To challenge his enemiesC. To unite French peopleD. To celebrate his birthday6.What did Viazemskii and others stress in their accounts?______A. The scene of the fireB. The selflessness of the czarC. The Russians' joint effort to fight the fireD. The ideal result achieved by the Russians.7.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?______A. To describe a fire at the Winter PalaceB. To praise the renewal of the Winter PalaceC. We express sympathy for the Notre DameD. To inspire confidence in rebuilding the Notre Dame.CGood news for coffee and tea drinkers:No more wasting time and energy waiting for the perfect cup.Using patented Heatworks' Ohmic Array Technology,the DUO Smart Untethered Carafe (玻璃水瓶)has the power to heat or cool water to the exact degree while you pour.With its functionality,convenience and stylish appearance,the DUO looks like quite the game changer.So how does it work?The precise temperature control lets you pick the water temperature tothe plus/minus one degree.Simply set your temperature,pour water into the tank(fits four cups)at the top and pour into your cup.The carafe features one blue spout(出水口)for filtered (过滤的)cold water and another red spout for hot water,which appears to heat up instantly.The entire device is battery operated,making it perfect for taking it to the office or really anywhere else.Youwill also be able to plug it in,so the carafe can stay comfortably on your kitchen table or desk to charge for on -the -go use.The DUO advocate 99 percent energy efficiently and an advanced water filtration systemcreated by heat works CEO Jerry Callahan,who wanted to create a heating system without using metal heating elements.Unsustainable and imperfect metal heating parts have been used for heating for the past 100 years and carry the risk of rusting(生锈).Callahan felt It was time for an upgrade heating systems,and the Ohmic Array Technology was born.Using electrical currents passed through the water itself rather than separate heated elements to transfer heat into the water.Ohmic Array cuts out a whole step in the process.The DUO is not yet available for purchase,but you can learn more Information and sign upfor the release updates on the Heatworks website.8.What do we know about the DUO carafe from the first paragraph?______A.

NoisyB. DirtyC. Difficult to findD. Hard to maintain13.What influence does the Internet have on homesteading?______A. It reduces homesteaders' everythingB. It connects homesteading farmsC. It helps promote homesteadingD. It disturbs homesteader's life14.What does the underlined word "incongruous" in paragraph 2 probably mean?______A. StrangeB. AmbitiousC. NaturalD. Impossible15.What will Elliott probably agree with?______A. Keep off the outside worldB. Stay with your familyC. Wish for something epicD. Lead your own life二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)I don't believe Artificial Intelligence(AI) could replace my teaching career. I have always been interested in human connection, and the ways in which I can use these connections to inspire change and make a difference. 1 , there are other ways where AI could make a more efficient and effective difference than I could on my own.My teaching experiences over the past several years have been creative and inspiring. I believe that the job of educators extends beyond simply teaching students a set curriculum. 2 ,they must constantly reflect on ways to better their teaching, and they must inspire their students to be the best versions of themselves. And now with the help of AI, they could achieve these goals much easier.3 . First, AI can be used to promote fundamental skills, such as mathematical education and vocabulary lessons. Additionally, I see AI being used for such necessary tasks as answering questions and grading assignments. Thus I could focus my attention to establishing human connection, individualizing lesson plans and inspiring my students.4 .I believe AI could provide a strong basis for educational equality around the world. According to Todd Leopold, close to 800 million people worldwide are functionally illiterate (不识字的). Due to its ability to efficiently pass knowledge across large groups of people fewer teachers may be needed in some schools. 5 .A. Since students will always need a human teacherB. The benefit AI brings is far beyond my own classroomC. I think AI is a powerful assistant to my future classroomD. The need for students to learn how to use AI will also growE. Although human connection may never be able to be fully replaced by AIF. This could be an opportunity for students everywhere to receive equal educationG. They must observe and get to know their students in order to individualize educational plans16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G.

It is a lost traditional craft.B. It is a major means of making a living in the USA.C. It is a craft that has become a cultural symbol.D. It was a way to carry on the American history.9.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?______A. Introduce a new topic for discussion.B. Summarize the previous paragraphsC. Add some background information.D. Praise the U.S.government's policy.10.What does the underlined word"this"in paragraph 4 refer to?______A. Working on the land.B. Participating in"quilting bees".C. Designing a quilting project.D. Clothing the family.11.What is the author's purpose in writing the text?______A. To instruct how to sew together fabric.B. To show the author's skills of quilting.C. To tell about the struggle of women.D. To appeal for preservation of quilting.DSkyscrapers are the symbol of Urban life. City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms, on the other hand, are associated with rural(农村的) life. However, there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest, almost 80% of the earth's population could live in cities. In addition, the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same. If current farming practices don't change, we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make ita reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally, vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day, it wouldnˈt be enough. For this reason, vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的) farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at affordable costs, both to the farmer and to the consumer, but the best ideas could be yet to come.12.What primary problem could vertical farming settle?A. Poor state of rural life.B. Shortage of food supply.C. High cost for transporting crops.D. Environmental pollution by transitional farmings13.What is the advantage of vertical farming?A. It can produce organic food.B. It requires little care.C. It can benefit transport industry.D. It needs very low cost.14.What is a big challenge to make vertical farming a reality?A. Farmable land.B. Crop diseasesC. Light sources.D. Climate conditions.15.What can be the best title of the test?A. Future Food NeedsB. Symbol of Urban LifeC. Farming on RooftopsD. Farms of the Future二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Imagine an area 34 times the size of Manhattan. Now imagine it covered ankle-deep in plastic waste—a total of about 19 billion pounds of garbage.

ATime is running out for the 30-second TV commercial The 30-second television commercial was once a cultural icon. Unfortunately, it has lost that status. TV commercials are destined for history museums, along with cassette players and dial-up telephones.TV commercials had their golden era in the 1960s. People had lots of time, particularly after work. There were no emails, text messages or socialnetworks to follow. TV was limited to a handful of stations that only broadcast during certain times of the day.Commercials were part of the TV experience. They offered a window into the new world of packaged goods, automobiles and airline travel. Thanks to TV commercials, people could learn about these products without having to get up from the sofa.That’s not the case anymore. For today’s internet-enabled consumers, TV commercials are probably the least efficient way to learn about a product. They are 30 seconds of sell (推销), while all we really want to do is sit back and watch our show.Time-shifting — the ability to fast forward and rewind (倒回) — has made it possible for us to make watching TV just one more scheduled activity in our already packed diaries. It’s not that we don’t want to hear from brands. It’s just that we don’t want to hear from them during the time we have set aside to watch TV. A study last year showed that 84 percent of respondents wanted to fast forward through the ads they watched. More than 60 percent of them, meanwhile, downloaded shows so that they could skip commercials.Hence the concept of “interruptive advertising.” People don’t want to be interrupted by advertising. They only want to engage with it when they are in consumer mode and thus in the proper mood for a brand’s message.So, are TV commercials dead already? What sort of brand message is appropriate today? The answer isn’t yet clear, but pre-roll (片前的) ads may be part of the solution. People are less likely to consider such ads annoying since they start to roll before the viewer has a chance to engage with the show. It might be followed up by a page on the show’s website, with links that allow the viewer to connect more deeply with the brand.1. According to the author, television commercials are outdated because。

Little kayley was shocked to see the fire destroy the home and all their possessions of Brooke and Josh Rummonds while they raced to safety with their young sons.Two days later Kayley set up a stand to take donations for homemade lemonade. Kayley sat opposite the remains of the home for two days and sold 100 cups in return for donations, raising $1, 000. People even drove over from far away after hearing about how devoted Kayley was. Kayley said, "I watched the whole thing, and intended to help in some way. I had already planned to raise money for a dog shelter. But after the fire, the home was completely destroyed. I finally chose to donate that money to our neighbor instead. "We didn't expect so many people to donate so much money. Brooke,a saleswoman,added,I guess that spirit of friendship was summed up inKayley, who is a wonderful girl.Brooke, 36, and her husband were sleeping with two sons into bed when the smoke detector (探测器) went off. They ran across the landing and saw flames bursting out of an air conditioner, so they took the kids, two dogs and ran outside,calling emergency services.The City of Fresno Fire Department, City of Clovis Fire Department and County of Fresno Fire Department rushed to the fire with 15 trucks and 40 firefighters. But the fire hydrant (消防栓)across from the house failed and caused a 15﹣minute delay in getting water on the fire.

My partner Peter was involved in a project in New York and then hurricane Sandy hit New York very badly,so it wasflooded and after two days there was no fresh food on the shelves anymore," she said, "So then we realized, 'Why not produce fresh food on the water close to the city?',and that's where the idea came up.""The cows can rest on the upper level of the structure, Milk and waste processing facilities are located on the lower deck, as well as the visitors' entrance and store.The top level of the structure is used to collect rainwater. Power for the farm comes from a solar panel floating nearby.The amount of arable (可耕的) land is decreasing and the world population is growing. So how can we produce enough healthy food in the future? Ms. Van Wingerden said. Why not use water to produce fresh healthy food near to the consumers?"The whole farm is equipped with the latest dairy tech such as an automated feeding system, waste moving robots, self﹣serve cleaning stations, and the smartphone app. It sells some bottles of raw milk on﹣site to visitors, while the rest is turned into milk. It is sold to customers nearby via an online grocery, Picnic known for its small, electric delivery trucks.(1)Which of the following can replace the underlined word "feasible" in paragraph 2?A. Disgusting.B. PracticalC. EnjoyableD. Flexible(2)We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. picnic deals mainly with dairy productsB. electric equipment is being tested on the farmC. modern tech has been applied to farm managementD. visitors prefer bottles of raw milk to farm﹣made milk(3)What can be a suitable title for the text?A. New Food farm solves problems of the publicB. "Floating Farm" Creates Local Dairy for CitiesC. Latest Invention Contributes to Food Shortages.D. Less Arable Land Threatens World Population13.(8分)Lego is considering a brick (积木) rental plan in an attempt to cut down on plastic waste. The Danish toymaker has promised to make all its bricks from sustainable (可持续的)sources by 2030 and is investing significant resources into finding alternatives.Tim Brooks,vice﹣president responsible for sustainability,said the company was "totally open" to the idea of a product rental plan but admitted that lost pieces could produce a significant problem. What are the chances of giving them to an eight year old child and getting them all back again?"Mr. Brooks added.There is a lot of technical thinking that needs to be done. We are right at beginning of that, Mr. Brooks said Lego was exploring several ideas witha view to producing the highest value from products while consuming the leastamount of resources. He said many would "probably never see the light of day"and there was no current plan to try out a rental plan.Lego has come under increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint among growing international alarm about the impact of plastic waste on the environment. It produces 19 billion pieces per year 36,000 a minute﹣that are made entirely of plastic while much of the inside packaging is also plastic. So far, the only breakthrough has been the development of a line of bricks made from plant﹣based plastic sourced from sugarcane.The green trees,plants and flowers were first included in Lego sets late last year but make up only 1%﹣2% of the total amount of plastic elements produced.Henrik Nielson, a production supervisor (主管) in Lego's factory, said last year:"We need to learn again how to do this."Lego reportedly releases around a million tons of carbon dioxide each year, with about 75 coming from raw materials that go into factories. The company has invested more than £100,000,000 and hired 100 people to researchnon﹣plastic alternatives. It is aiming to keep all of its packaging out of landfill by 2025.(1)Lego is making great efforts to .A. promote its brick rental planB. raise its production efficiencyC. explore ways to reduce plastic wasteD. develop new products(2)According to Mr. brooks Lego's brick rental plan .A. is well under wayB. has a long way to goC. is totally uselessD. goes against Lego s interest(3)The writer tells of Lego's stress of reducing plastic waste by means of .A. figuresB. examplesC. comparisonD. classification(4)What is Lego's attitude towards developing non﹣plastic alternatives?A. DefensiveB. DeterminedC. DisapprovingD. Doubtful14.(8分)Blooming flowers and new growth on trees make spring a beautiful time of the year. But for many people, all of this new growth only brings suffering in the form of allergies (过敏).Some people claim that each year their allergies seem to get worse and worse.Well,they are likely right.Climate change can make allergies more severe and allergy seasons longer. A study found that pollen (花粉) in theair in the earth's northern areas has been increasing﹣﹣along with a rise in temperatures.Allergies affect millions of people around the world. Between 10 to 30 percent of the world's population suffers from hay fever, a type of allergy.Many people experience allergic reactions to tree pollen,grass pollen, ragweed pollen and more.Carbon dioxide is one of the so﹣called "greenhouse gases". These gases do not let heat escape from the planet;so,temperatures increase on Earth. This is part of what we call "climate change".For one thing, warmer temperatures are making the growing season for some allergen producers longer and, the report says that some plant species may react better to increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) than others. For example, as the climate warms, the areas for major allergen﹣ producing trees such as oak are getting larger.So, does that mean increased CO2, could help "good" crops grow better?One of the things that researchers are also doing is looking at common crops ﹣such as wheat and rice,and trying to find specific varieties of those crops that respond more to carbon dioxide.Not all places are being affected by rising levels of CO2 in the same way a city is more affected than the surrounding countryside. Trees, for example,in the spring tend to flower earlier in the cities because it's warmer. Cities heat up faster.(1)How do greenhouse gases affect some plants?A. bringing benefits to them.B. Preventing them from growing.C. Damaging their growing conditions.D. Causing them to produce pollen.(2)What can be inferred from Paragraph 6?A. Crops can be used to get rid of CO2.B. Researchers try to prove CO2, beneficial.C. CO2 only does good to "good" crops.D. Researchers are also observing common crops.(3)How much does increased CO2 affect cities and the countryside?A. equally.B. Seriously.C. Differently.D. Slightly.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Temperature Rising is good for plants.B. Our Planet is getting Warmer and warmer.C. Beauty flowers May Bring You Great Harm.D. Climate Change Is Making You Sneeze More.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.15.(10分)What does Wi﹣Fi stand for?Long gone are the days of dial﹣up and waiting for your turn to use the computer. It's easier than ever to connect to the internet in the digital world today.(1).Wi﹣Fi is a wireless network that uses radio frequency signals to connect to the Internet or send messages between devices without wires. Everything from your phone and laptop to tablets and printers can use Wi﹣Fi thanks to these waves.(2)Two years later, a group of companies formed the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance (WECA, now the Wi﹣Fi Alliance),a global non﹣profit organization created to promote the new Wi﹣Fi standard.None of that history explains what Wi﹣Fi stands for, because the phrase doesn't stand for anything. Wi Fi is a trademarked term describing the device or technology based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers(IEEE)wireless communication standard 802.11,according to the Wi﹣Fi Alliance.(3)So the Wi﹣Fi Alliance hired the marketing company Interbrand to come up with a shorter name:Wi Fi,according to one of the founding Alliance members.(4) The rumor that it stands for "Wireless fidelity (无线保证)" is hanks to the alliance. Some members didn't understand the branding or marketing for Wi﹣Fi. They felt consumers would want an explanation for the name. So the alliance agreed to include a tagline The Standard for Wireless Fidelity. That's why so many people assume Wi Fi stands for wireless fidelity,but the tagline came after the name.(5)Don't add to the conclusion and stop miss associating these phrases by learning the real meaning behind these acronyms (缩略词).A. That's a mouthful.B. This is mostly thanks to Wi﹣Fi.C. The name caused a misconception about Wi Fi.D. There is some debate surrounding the question what Wi﹣Fi stands for.E. In 1997, a committee of industry leaders approved a common Wi﹣Fi standard.F.Several years ago, a common standard of Wi﹣Fi was set up by several companies.G. Plus, the Alliance removed the tag, although the confusion it brought still lives on today.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节完形填空(共1小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D))中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.16.(30分)Not two months after my initial 5K, a friend invited me to run a half marathon.This wasn't a small three﹣mile(1)I needed to face.

高考英语模拟试卷题号得分I II III IV V VI 总分一、阅读理解(本大题共15 小题,共30.0 分)AJust as John Lubbock said,we may sit in a library and yet be in all quarters of the earth.Here are some of the coolest libraries of the world.Stuttgart City LibraryDespite a classic white-on-white color,Stuttgart City Library is one of the most visually appealing modern libraries.The amazing modern and simple look is the product of the Korean architect Yi Eun-young.The German library opened in 2011,and cost nearly 80 million euros to construct.Kanazawa Umimirai LibraryArchitects from the Coelacanth K&H Architects studio designed the Kanazawa Umimirai Library to create the best reading environment.Heated floors,an outpouring of natural light,and other features were specifically included to achieve this goal.The wall,which consists of thousands of tiny openings,allows natural lighting into the building,improving the overall feel of the space.This Japanese library was opened in 2011,and reflects the appearance of many modern and simple spaces.Library of CongressIn 1800,Congress set up the Library of Congress in Washington D.C.. Fifteen years later,Thomas Jefferson offered his personal library to replace books that were lost when the British set the building on fire in 1814.His books,which took nearly 50 years to collect,varied from texts on science,literature and philosophy,to books in a variety of foreign languages .These days,the Library of Congress offers more than 155 million items and the largest rare book collection in North America.State Library of VictoriaThe State Library of Victoria,located in Melbourne,Australia,is one of the largest exhibiting libraries in the world.Though it opened in 1856,major repairs took place between 1990 and 2004.The La Trobe Reading Room is one of the library′s main attractions due to its visually amazing architecture.The lawn at the library's front attracts hundreds of city folk each day,who gather for lunch or to enjoy the statues there.The library currently contains over two million books,as well as armor(盔甲)of Ned Kelly,a folk hero against the ruling class.1. Which library has the longest history?______A. Stuttgart City Library C. Library of CongressB. Kanazawa Umimirai Library D. State Library of Victoria2. What's special about State Library of Victoria?______A. It has great architecture.B. It has a folk hero's statue in it.C. It is the world's largest exhibiting library.D. It serves as a meeting place for the citizens.3. What does the first two libraries have in common?______A. They cost a large amount of money.B. They are constructed in the modern style.C. They are designed by Korean architects.D. They feature providing readers with natural light.BA few weeks ago,I called an Uber to take me to the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays.As I slid into the back seat of the car,the warm intonations(语调)of thedriver's accent washed over me in a familiar way.I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children,working hard to provide for his family.I could relate:I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success.I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents.That's how he found out I go to Harvard.An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window,and quickly,we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver.I became his daughter,all grown up - the product of his sacrifice.And then came the fateful(致命的)question:"What do you study?" I answered "history and literature" and the pride in his voice faded,as I knew it might.I didn't even get to add "and African-American studies" before he cut in,his voice thick with disappointment,"All that work to get into Harvard,and you study history?"Here I was,his daughter,squandering the biggest opportunity of her life.He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know.We are to become doctors (or lawyers,if our parents are being generous)- to make money and send money back home.The unspoken demand,made across generations,which my Uber driver laid out plainly,is simple:Fulfill your role in the narrative(故事)of upward mobility so your children cando the same.I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning,but now as a junior in college,I'm grateful for their support more than anything.This holiday season,I've promised myself I won't huff and get annoyed at their inquiries.I won't defensively respond with "but I plan to go to law school!" when I get unrequested advice.I'll just smile and nod,and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.4. What disappointed the driver?______A. The author's majors in history and literature.B. The school that the author is attending.C. The author's attitude towards him.D. The author's interests in African American studies.5. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "squandering" in Paragraph 4?______A. creatingB. wastingC. valuingD. seizing6. Why are immigrant kids expected to be doctors or lawyers?______A. They are very smart in general.B. Their parents are high achieving as well.C. They have more opportunities.D. Their parents want them to move upward in society.7. How did the author react to the driver's questioning?______A. Getting upset.C. Appreciating his concern.B. Feeling satisfied.D. Defending herself.CFeathers are not just for flight.They keep birds warm and attract mates.And for one Australian bird,feathers even help produce an important sound--an alarm."People had long noticed these birds produced these loud sounds." Trevor Murray,a researcher at the Australian National University said."My supervisor Rob Magrath and May Hingee thought they were used as an alarm.So they did some playbacks and they could show quite strongly that if you play back these sounds to other birds,they flee straight away.So I was really interested in how they produce the sound,whether it is actually a signal,and whether it's a reliable signal."The team focused their experiment on specific feathers in the pigeon's wing."We were able to target the eighth primary feather,which is unusually narrow.And then we also removed ,on different sets of birds,those neighboring feathers,the ninth primary feather and the seventh primary feather.And we were able to see when the eighth primary feather was missing,the high note had completely disappeared.So the eighth primary feather produced that high note and the ninth primary feather actually produced the low note."And if the birds are fleeing from danger,they produce a louder and higher sound than they do during a normal takeoff.The study is in the journal Current Biology.Murray and his colleagues did another experiment where they used the recordings they made to observe the reactions of other pigeons."We were able to see the unusual eighth primary feather was important for signaling alarm.When that eighth primary feather was missing,they very rarely responded.They almost never fled.Whereas when that ninth primary produces the sound,they fled just as much as to normal alarms.This shows us this unusual primary feather is important for signaling alarm."That makes birds of a feather flee together.8. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 2 refer to?______A. The birds.B. The feathers.C. Rob and May.D. The loud sounds.9. What did Rob Magrath and May Hingee find out about the birds?______A. They fly away as a group.B. They send alarms with feathers.C. They produce different notes.D. They attract mates with feathers.10. Why did the team remove different feathers?______A. To record the notes they produce.B. To keep the pigeons stay in cages.C. To compare their width and length.D. To observe other pigeons' reactions.11. According to Murray and his colleagues,why does the unusual feather matter most?______A. It keeps the pigeons warm.B. It responds to alarms.C. It helps birds fly more quickly.D. It sounds alarms of danger.DMany small-business owners watched recent revelations about Facebook with mixed emotions .Like most Americans,they were surprised to discover how much information the socialmedia giant collected on its users.But when it comes to small business,Facebook is a transformative advertising platform for small businesses,not easy to replace.Let's say you own a small seafood restaurant,and Tuesday nights are ﹩1 oyster (牡蛎)nights.Traditional advertising methods cost a lot and must be planned long in advance,and it's hit-or-miss as to whether you actually get in front of oyster eaters.With Facebook,on Tuesday morning,with a few clicks,you can target Facebook users in your Zip code who love oysters and eating out (and are over age 21,so they can buy drinks,which is why you have ﹩1 oyster nights).And you can do this for as little as ﹩20.In my work with small businesses for more than 25 years,I've never seen a more effective method of micro-targeting prospects.Though Facebook is an effective tool forsmall-business,advertising does not justify (证明合理)the company's collecting vast amounts of data or allowing users' data to be invaded."Our primary concern was people's experience on Facebook," said Dan Levy,Facebook's Vice President,Small Business."Our teams have also been speaking to small businesses,and they want to make sure we're addressing the situation,and we are."One concern small businesses want Facebook to address is protecting their uploaded lists.No one wants their customers' information misused or accessed by others,especially competitors .Small-business owners are rightfully concerned about privacy.They don't want Facebook to know everything about them,and they don't want their customer list to be let out to others.But small businesses don't want to lose this effective advertising medium,either.Most Facebook ads are not invasive or offensive.And many receivers may actually benefit from receiving highly targeted ads-after all,those oyster lovers like learning about Tuesday night ﹩1 oyster night.12. How does the author explain Facebook's function in paragraph 2?______A. By performing an experiment.C. By analyzing the data.B. By leading a survey.D. By giving an example.13.

语义相符.故选A.37.G.段尾空,需关注本段上文和下一段内容.根据"重点名词一致"原则,前一句重点提到jobs,选项中名词一致的只有G (salaries,jobs);且选项种代词their 指代前一句种的maximizers.下一段开头也在探讨maximizers.故选G.38.E.段尾空,需关注本段上文和下-段内容,可知,两段在进行maximizers 和satisficers 的对比;且根据空前一句:maximizers 做出最佳选择,但不开心;以及下一段段首句:stisficers 也有高标准,但比maximizers 更开心;应选择E--satisficers 做出好的选择,并且最终感觉很好.故选E.39.B.段首空,需关注上一段内容和本段下文.上一段说我们在面对选择时,如何避免浪费时间精力,因此此处需要具体做法;再根据下文for instance 可知本段为总分结构,且该句中的narrow your options(缩小选择范围)与B 项中的decrease your range of options 语义一致.故选B.40.C.段中空,需关注本段上下文.前一句"一旦作出决定,就要坚持不变";后一句" 为了限制选项数目,可以设定一个抉择的时间."Say 所在句为举例,but

和satisficers 的对比;第六段至第八段说明如何在选择时减少时间、经历的浪费,给出两个具体方向.七选五阅读题,有部分题出现在每一段的开始位置,若问题在段首1.通常是段落主题句.认真阅读该段落,根据段落一致性原则,查找相关词或者同义词,从而推测出主题句,找到答案.2.与后文是并列、转折、因果关系等.着重阅读后文第一两句,锁定线索信号词,然后在选项中查找相关特征词.-般来说正确答案与它后面的一句话的在意思上是衔接的,所以通常情况下,这两句话中会有某种的衔接手段.3.段落间的过渡句.这时要前瞻后望找到启示,即阅读上一段结尾部分,通常正确答案与上一段结尾有机地衔接起来,并结合下一段内容,看所选的答案是否将两段内容连贯起来.21.【答案】【小题1】B

corner.Besides,mobile payments and online shopping are playing increasing i mportant roles in everyone's li fe.With so great achievements,China speed is now a model admired by a whole world.解析:1.Little→Few.考查形容词.此处little 的含义是"很少、几乎没有",通常用来修饰不可数名词.things 是可数名词的复数形式,应该用few 修饰.故将Little 改为Few.2.that→which.句意:几乎没有什么能与中国的高速铁路系统相媲美,尤其是它仍在发展的速度.the speed 作先行词,定语从句引导词在句子中作介词at 的宾语,用关系代词which.故将that 改为which.3.speed 后加is.考查动词的语态.主语The speed 与谓语动词know 之间为被动关系,本句应为被动句.be known as (作为…)被熟知,故在speed 后加is.4.去掉of.考查短语.alot 修饰动词means,a lot of 修饰名词,此处后面没有可修饰的名词,故去掉of.5.had→have/has.考查动词时态.句意:过去的30 年见证了我国经济技术等各领域的迅速发展.(in)the past 30 years 通常用于现在完成时,强调对现在产生的影响.此处作主语,谓语动词用单复数均可.故将had 改为have 或has.。

AWhy don’t quiet carriages work, and how might they be make to? Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers voluntarily make their phones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence.A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carriage by accident and are not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore.The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent signs added to show exactly what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls.Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surelydissuade(劝阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring and enforcement. Another way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengers-in effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one would dissuade many of those who don’t value a peaceful ride.Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise canchange during the journey. Some passengers would pay the quiet premium but still chatter away when some vital news arrives. Schemes that reward the silent-a rating system among fellow passengers, for example-could help. The idea is that losing your hard-won reputation offsets the short-term gain from using the phone. But such a system also fails the simplicity test.A 2010 book by George Akerlof and Rachel Kranton argues that “norms”-feelings about how everyone should behave-also play a role in decision-making. Charging a price, even if just a token amount, means the quiet carriage becomes a service that fellow passengers have bought, not just apreference they have expressed. Perhaps different norms would come into play, encouraging calm. If not, a personal bubble is always an option: noise-canceling headphones start at around $50.1. According to the passage, what does microeconomics suggest?A. Finding the source of noise.B. Putting a price on noise.C. Avoid using a phone in the carriage.D.

Itjoy now.”The EF English Proficiency Index is a measure of the level of English spoken in a country. Japanranks 49th among countries where English is not the first language. This situation is slowly changing as younger generations welcome English. However, Takamizawa believes real change will not happen unless Japanese people become more open to the rest of the world. With around 500 days to go until the games begin, the whole Takamizawa family is ready to welcome the world to Tokyo.4. Why couldn’t Takamizawa learn Engli sh when she was young?A.

In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children intopre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing , because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as thechild,s first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parentsand the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children inthe program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skillsthan their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality ofparent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a sim focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates thatit will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.8. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?A. The large number of poor families.B. The disapproval from children.C. The late start of the program.D. The long period of time.9.

By listing figures.B. By making comparisons.C. By giving examples.D. By drawing conclusions.DWe’ve all been there: those times you need to argue your point of view to someone who you know disagrees with you. You immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280-character tweet, the Facebook reply, or a paragraphs-long email. Surely the reason, logic, and strong power of your written words will convince whoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view. But new research suggests a different idea.That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder, assistant professor of University of California, Berkeley, and her colleagues. In Schroeder’s study of almost 300 people, participant s were asked to watch, listen, and read arguments about subjects they agreed or disagreed with. They were asked to judge the character of the communicator and the quality of the argument. Schroeder’s team found that the part who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的)of their claims than when they read that communicator’s same argument.The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician. One of us read a speech thatwas printed in a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed. The next week, he heard the exact same speech playing on a radio station. He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward the politician when he read the speech compared to when he heard it. When he read the statement, the politician seemed idiotic, but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable.So in the workplace, speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a fewvince that boss ordoors down to their office. An d that’s exactly what you should do if you need to concolleague of why your blueprint for the company or project is the right one.Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over socialshort attention make arguing your point anmedia. Twitter’s limited text allowance and social media users’uphill battle.12. What’s the result of the research?A. Written words are more logical and reasonable.B. People prefer to communicate with key board.C. When reading an argument, the participants were less dismissive than hearing it.D. Oral, not written, communication works better.13. Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph3?A. To introduce the topic for discussion.B. To summarize the previous paragraphs.C. To explain why Schroeder conducted the research.D. To introduce the politician’s speech.14. What does the underlined word “idiotic’’in paragraph 3 mean?A. Wise.B. Practical.C. Silly.D. Special.15. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A. To persuade your boss, you need to walk to his office and leave a message.B. It’s difficult to fully explain your points due to social media’s limitation.C. Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person.D. Communicating with others over social media is encouraged.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
