2018年江苏省南京师大附中高考英语模拟试卷(5月份)副标题一、单选题(本大题共15小题,共15.0分)1. A good government is not to pick technologies, but to establish conditions ________ innovation is supported and encouraged into the marketplace.()A. whenB. thatC. asD. where【答案】D【解析】答案:D.考查定语从句.分析句子可知本句是一个定语从句,先行词是conditions"条件"在定语从句是抽象意义上的地点状语,所以只能用where引导.when引导时间状语,that,as做主语或者是宾语.故选:D.一个好的政府不是挑选技术,而是建立一个创新支持和鼓励技术进入市场的条件.定语从句又称为形容词性从句,综观历年高考试题,我们可以发现该语法项目是测试中的热点与难点,解定语从句的题目首先要知道哪一句是主句,哪一句是从句,被修饰的词是谁,从句中的句子成分缺失什么,根据缺失成分的不同从而选出相对应的关系代词或者关系副词,从而选出正确的答案,解题的关键是从句句子的成分分析.2.Trump said he believes North Korea will ________ its promise to suspend missile testswhile he prepares for a summit with Kim Jong Un.()A. take toB. make upC. stand byD. hold out【答案】C【解析】考查动词短语的辨析.take to喜欢;习惯于…;开始从事;make up组成;化妆;补足;编造;stand by坚持,遵守,信守(原有的决定、承诺或宣言);hold out 伸出;拿出;抵抗.句意:特朗普说,他相信在准备与金正恩举行峰会时朝鲜将遵守承诺暂停导弹试验.故选:C.特朗普说,他相信在准备与金正恩举行峰会时朝鲜将遵守承诺暂停导弹试验.本题考查动词短语的辨析.英语中有的词组没有捷径,只有平时加强记忆,要注意区别,记忆的时候不能忽视,这是常见的命题方式.平时要加强记忆,做题时,别忘了要结合上下文句意判断.这题主要考查的是put加不同的介词或副词的短语.3.According to The Sun, British scientists have solved the ancient riddle of ________ came first-chicken or egg?()A. whoB. whatC. whichD. that【答案】C【解析】答案:C.考查宾语从句.分析句子可知________ came first-chicken or egg是介词的宾语从句,从句中在先有鸡还是先有蛋中做出选择,所以要给你which引导,what在句中做成分,who指人,that不能表达句子的意义.故选:C.根据The Sun,英国科学家已经解决了古老的谜团,其中第一个就先有鸡还是先有蛋的问题.名词性从句一直是高考考查的热点,近几年的高考题主要考察在具体语境中对what和that的辨析,此外,也要求学生对定语从句和名词性从句有清晰的辨认.首先我们要判断它是哪个名词性从句.名词性从句是主句的一部分,可以充当主语、宾语、表语、同位语.就是说,如果我们能判断出某个从句是某个主句的主语、宾语、表语或同位语,4.Thanks to the "sugar tax", food factories have reduced sugar in their products, ________ about 45million kilograms of sugar.()A. to saveB. savedC. savingD. having saved【答案】C【解析】考查现在分词.food factories与save之间是主谓关系,用现在分词作结果状语,表示顺其自然的结果.A项是不定式,也可表示结果,但动词不定式表示出乎意料的结果,排除A.D项是现在分词的完成式,强调动作发生在reduce之前,显然不符合语境.故C项正确.故选:C.得益于"糖税",食品工厂减少了产品中的糖分,节省了大约四千五百万公斤的糖.非谓语动词中的现在分词主要起形容词和副词的作用,在句中作定语、表语、补语或状语,弄清楚现在分词的构成,时态与语态,然后根据题意及上下文选择最合适的答案.5.You are subject to punishment if you fail to ________ to the customs when carrying theprohibited articles listed above.()A. stateB. declareC. announceD. communicate 【答案】B【解析】考查动词词义辨析.state是一般的"陈述,说明"的意思;declare 也是"声明"的意思但比较正式,经常用于正式场合,指"清楚,公开让人知道",用在此题中正好符合句意;announce宣布、通知;communicate沟通;联系;交流.句意:携带上述违禁物品时,未向海关申报的,将受到处罚.故选:B.携带上述违禁物品时,未向海关申报的,将受到处罚.本题考查动词词义辨析.在熟知词义的基础上,再联系句子所表达的含义,从而选出正确的答案.6.Dave was a ________.

The potential violations were abundant and came in several forms,according to the study.More than 1,000 children's apps collected identifying information from kids using tracking software whose terms explicitly forbid their use for children's apps.The researchers also said nearly half the apps fail to always use standard security measures to transmit sensitive data over the Web,suggesting a violation of reasonable datasecurity measures laid out by COPPA.Some of the apps in question included Disney's "Where's My Water?",Gameloft's "Minion Rush" and Duolingo,a language learning app.The findings also suggested that app creators that had been officially recognized as COPPAcompliant(遵守)were no better than any of the other app developers at protecting children's privacy.Disney argued that the study doesn't claim to identify any actual violations."Protecting children's online privacy is very important to us and we are confident that our practices comply with the law," the company said."We have a sound COPPA compliance program,and we maintain strict data collection and use policies for Disney apps created for children and families."Gameloft announced that children's privacy is of "utmost importance" and is investigating the issue."We have a very strict datacollection policy at Gameloft and always make sure that we are compliant with protection laws," the company said.Duolingo did not respond to requests for comment.Although Google stated that "We are taking the researcher's report very seriously and looking into their findings",critics of Google's app platform say the company has profited greatly from advances in datatracking technology."Google has basically looked the other way whileit was able to generate revenues off of children's apps," said Jeffrey Chester,the executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy." The new,alarming report is further evidence that Google is thumbing its nose at the only federal online privacy law that we have."16.How did companies respond to the accusation of violating COPPA?______A. Disney claimed to strictly obey privacy laws.B. Gameloft questioned the validity of the study.C. Duolingo planned to adopt strict datacollection policies.D. Google admitted to the charge and promised to do more.17.What does the underlined phrase "thumbing its nose at" probably mean?______A. Observing.B. Disrespecting.C. Prohibiting.D. Introducing.18.The purpose of the passage is to ______ .A. charge app companies with the violation of COPPAB. inform readers of different ways to violate child privacy lawsC. illustrate the growing criticism of app's datacollection functionD. highlight the urgency of strengthening enforcement of COPPA【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】B 【小题3】D【解析】1.A.细节理解题.根据文章Protecting children's online privacy is very important to us and we are confident that our pract ices comply with the law," the company said可知公司声称严格遵守隐私法应对违反COPPA的指控;故选A.2.B.词义猜测题.根据文章The new, alarming report is further evidence that Google is thumbing its nose at the only federal online privacy law that we have可知这项新的令人震惊的报告进一步证明了谷歌对我们所拥有的唯一的联邦在线隐私法嗤之以鼻;意为不尊重的;故选B.3.D.推理判断题.根据文章The new, alarming report is further evidence that Google is thumbing its nose at the only federal online privacy law that we have可知这篇文章的目的是突出加强COPPA实施的紧迫性;故选D.本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了根据一项新的大规模的研究,数以千计的免费、受欢迎的儿童应用程序在谷歌游戏商店上可能违反了儿童在线隐私保护法案(COPPA),这突显出对硅谷数据收集工作的越来越多的批评.考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.BTo err is human.Society is suffering from an inability to acknowledge as much.For individuals,errors are painful.The trick,then,is to err well:to recognize mistakes and learn from them.Worryingly,humanity may be getting worse at admitting its mistakes.Few enjoy the feeling of being caught out in an error.But real trouble starts when the desire to avoid a punishment leads to a refusal to deal with contrary evidence.Economists often assume that people are sensible.When faced with a new fact,these people should update their view of the world to take better decisions in future.Yet years of economic research confirms that people frequently disregard information that conflicts with their view of the world.Why should that be?Last year Roland Benabou,of Princeton,presented a framework forthinking about the problem.In many ways,beliefs are like other economic goods.People spend time and resources building them,and get value from them:some beliefs make owners feel good and show their public identity;other beliefs provide value by shaping behavior-for example,religious asceticism(禁欲主义)can help one avoid unhealthy habits.Because beliefs,however,are not simply tools for making good decisions,but are treasured in their own right,new information that challenges them is unwelcome.People often engage in "motivated reasoning" to manage such challenges.Mr Benabou classifies this into three categories."Strategic ignorance" is when a believer avoids information offering conflicting evidence.In "reality denial",troubling evidence is rationalized(合理化):real estate investors might make up fanciful theories for why prices should behave unusually,and supporters of a disgraced politician might claim the negative news to be fake.And lastly,in "selfsignalling",the believer creates his own tools to interpret the facts in the way he wants:an unhealthy person,for example,might decide that going for a daily run proves he is well."Motivated reasoning" is a cognitive bias(偏见).Not all the errors it leads to are costly:praising the performance of one's supported football team despite contradictory evidence does little harm.But when biases are broadly shared-within financial world or politicalparties-danger arises.Motivated reasoning helps explain why viewpoints polarize (两极分化)even as information is more easily available than ever before.Work by Mr Benabou suggests that groupthink is highest when people within groups face a shared fate:when choosing to break from a group is unlikely to spare an individual the costs of the group's errors or bring much individual benefit.The incentive(动力)to engage in motivated reasoning is high as a result.Even as the fact on a particular issue is obvious,parties can still become increasingly polarized.That,in turn,can make it harder still for a member of one party to get any benefit from breaking from a group.Indeed,the group has an incentive to silence independent voices.Public statements of regret are risky in a rigidly polarized world.Admissions of error can not only annoy partners but also provide opportunities for opponents.But it is rarely in the interest of those in the right to pretend that they are never wrong.19.According to the passage,beliefs are similar to economic goods in that ______ .A. both are entertaining and valuableB. both can be shaped by religious faithC. both can reflect who the owners areD. both promote religious development20.Which of the following is an example of "selfsignalling"?______A. A fan speaks highly of his team although it has just lost the game.B. A man covers his ears when stealing a bell,believing the bell won't ring.C. Supporters of Trump believe the news about his affairs with a lady is fake.D. Suspected AIDS carriers refuse to be tested though it can be done for free.21.What can be inferred from Paragraphs 6 and 7?______A. Polarization causes individuals to break from the group.B. Richer sources of information decrease motivated reasoning.C. Individuals with independent voices are dismissed from the group.D. Individuals in a group engage in motivated reasoning for their own interests.22.Which of the following opinions might the author agree with?______A. Denying errors is unavoidable.B.

one has a temper naturally so good,that it does not need attention and cultivation,and no one has a temper so bad,but that,by proper culture,it may become pleasant.One of the best disciplined tempers ever seen,was that of a gentleman who was naturally quick,irritable,rash,and violent;but,by taking care of the sick,and especially of mentally deranged(疯狂的)people,he so completely mastered himself that he was never known to be thrown off his guard.There is no misery so constant,so upsetting,and so intolerable to others,as that of having a character which is your master.There are corners at every turn in life,against which we may run,and at which we may break out in impatience,if we choose.Look at Roger Sherman,who rose from a humble occupation to a seat in the first Congress of the United States,and whose judgment was received with great respect by that body of distinguished men.He made himself master of his temper and cultivated it as a great business in life.There are one or two instances which show this part of his character in a light that is beautiful.One day,after having received his highest honors,he was sitting and reading in his sitting room.A student,in a room close by,held a lookingglass in such a position as to pour the reflected rays of the sun directly in Mr Sherman's face.He moved his chair,and the thing was repeated.A third time the chair was moved,but the lookingglass still reflected the sun in his eyes.He laid aside his book,went to the window,and many witnesses of the rude behavior expected to see the ungentlemanly student severely punished.He raised the window gently,and then-shut the window blind!I can not help providing another instance of the power he had acquired over himself.He was naturally possessed of strong passions,but over these he at length obtained an extraordinary control.He became habitually calm and selfpossessed.Mr Sherman was one of those men who are not ashamed to maintain the forms of religion in their families.One morning he called them all together as usual to lead them in prayer to God.The "old family Bible" was brought out and laid on the table.Mr Sherman took his seat and placed beside him one of his children,a child of his old age.The rest of the family were seated around the room,several of whom were now grownups.Besides these,some of the tutors of the college were boarders in the family and were present at the time.His aged mother occupied a corner of the room,opposite the place where the distinguished Judge sat.At length,he opened the Bible and began to read.The child who was seated beside him made some little disturbance,upon which Mr Sherman paused and told it to be still.Again he continued but again he had to pause to scold the little offender,whose playful character would scarcely permit it to be still.At this time he gently tapped its ear.The blow,if blow it might be called,caught the attention of his aged mother,who now with some effort rose from the seat and tottered across the room.At length,she reached the chair of Mr Sherman,and in a moment,most unexpectedly to him,she gave him a blow on the ear with all the force she could gather."There," said she,"you strike your child,and I will strike mine."For a moment,the blood was seen mounting to the face of Mr Sherman.But it was only for a moment and all was calm and mild as usual.He paused;he raised his glasses;he cast his eye upon his mother;again it fell upon the book from which he had been reading.Not a word escaped him;but again he calmly pursued the service,and soon sought in prayer an ability to set an example before his household which should be worthy of their imitation.Such a victory was worth more than the proudest one ever achieved on the field of battle.23.The following sentence should be put at the beginning of Paragraph ______ .The difference in the happiness which is received by the man who governs his temper and that by the man who does not is dramatic.A. TwoB. ThreeC. FourD. Five24.How is the passage mainly developed?______A. By analyzing reasons.B. By giving examples.C. By listing arguments.D. By comparing facts.25.What was Roger Sherman's attitude towards his aged mother?______A. Grateful.B. Skeptical.C. Tolerant.D. Sympathetic.26.What can we learn about Roger Sherman?______A. He came from a distinguished family background.B. He was not good at displaying his true inner feelings.C. He severely punished a student who didn't behave himself.D. He was a man conscious of the consequences of his behavior.27.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?______A. Mr Sherman's face was covered with blood.B. Mr Sherman was seeking strength in prayer.C. Mr Sherman was then on the point of exploding.D. Mr Sherman was ashamed of his mother's rude behavior.28.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?______A. Control your temperB. Save your selfesteemC. Mind your mannersD.

Accordingly, an increasing number of museums have been established and high-quality relevant programs produced. (37 words)Admittedly, bringing cultural relics back to life is of critical significance to the current society. Each relic is a unique cultural expression. By fully understanding their history and stories behind, we can acquire our ancestors’ wisdom, which we can apply to our daily life. Furthermore, relics coming alive will definitely help strengthen our cultural confidence and pride.As a teenager, I intend to do my part in making cultural relics alive. Firstly, I will visit museums more often and dig into the stories behind each exhibit. Additionally, I will work as a cultural ambassador, serving as a volunteer guide in museums or shooting videos of the exhibits introducing their glorious past to the public.In short, if everyone does their bit, we will see a rosy future for our cultural treasures.

Then it goes to $13,500 for the second year.The longer you work there, the more you’ll receive.W: That sounds fair enough. So what will you mainly do if you get the job?M: I’ll show Chinese tourists around the city.W: I’m afraid that sounds like a quite tiring job.M: Yes, but I think I’ll love doing it. You know, I love exploring city.W: Well, I do hope you’ll get the job.(Text 9)M: Donna, can I ask you a question?W: Sure, Jason. What’s up?M: Did you take my gold ring? You know, the one that Grandpa gave me right before he passed away last year.W: Uh, no. Why would I want to take that? It doesn’t even fit me.M: Look, just be honest. Did you take it?W: No! What’s your deal, anyway? All of a sudden, you don’t trust your big sister?I’ve never lied to you about anything before. Why would I start now?M: You’re right. I’m sorry. It’s just … that ring is really important to me, and I can’t find it anywhere.W: Maybe the housekeeper took it.M: No, she was there when Grandpa gave it to me. She knows how much it meant to me. She would never do that. Besides, she has been with us for two years.W: Well, have you looked in your room?M: Uh, only for the last two days! I’ve looked everywhere.W: Hey, what’s that on your little finger?M: What? I can’t believe it! Oh, man, I feel so stupid now!W: Haha, don’t worry. The same thing happened to me with my favorite pair of sunglasses. They were on my head for, like, a whole day!M: I still don’t understand why it was on my little finger. You know, I always wear it on my ring finger or middle finger.(Text 10)Hello. This is the Cambridge Sports Centre. We’re sorry that nobody is available to speak to you right now.
