An increase in production costs．7. From which is the text probably taken？A. A personal diary．B. A travel guide．C. A book review．D. A scientific magazine．CThe Native American of northern California were highly skilled at basketry, using the reeds, graeses, barks, and roots they found around them to fashion articles of all sorts and sizes-not only trays, containers, and cooking pots, but hats, boats, fish traps, baby carriers, and ceremonial objects.Of all these experts, none excelled the Pomo-a group who lived on or near the coast during the 1800's, and whose descendants continue to live in parts of the same region to this day. They made baskets three feet in diameter and othersno bigger than a thimble (顶针). The Pomo people were masters of decoration. Some of their baskets were completely covered with shell pendants；others with feathers that made the baskets’ surfaces as softas the breasts of birds. Moreover, the Pomo people made use of more weaving techniques than did their neighbors. Most groups made al their basketwork by twining--the twisting of a flexible horizontal material, called a weft, around stiffer vertical strands of material, the warp. Others depended primarily on coiling-a process in which a continuous coil of stiff material is held in the desired shape with tight wrapping of flexible strands. Only the Pomo people used both processes with equal ease and frequency. In addition, they made use of four distinct variations on the basic twining process, often employing more than one of them in a single article.Although a wide variety of materials was available, the Pomo people used only a few. The warp was always made of willow, and the most commonly used weft was sedge root, a woody fiber that could easily be separated into strands no thicker than a thread. For color1 , the Pomo people used the bark of red-bud for their twined work and dyed bullrush root for black in coiled work. Though other materials were sometimes used, these four were the staples in their finest basketry.If the basketry materials used by the Pomo people were limited, the designs were amazingly varied. Every Pomo basket maker knew how to produce from fifteen to twenty distinct patterns that could be combined in a number of different.8. The word “fashion” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. maintainB. organizeC. tradeD. create9. What is the author's main point in paragraph 2?A. The neighbors of the Pomo people tried to improve on the Pomo basket weaving techniques.B. The Pomo people were the most skilled basket weavers in their region.C. The Pomo people learned their basket weaving techniques from other Native Americans.D. The Pomo baskets have been handed down for generations.10. According to the passage, the relationship between red-bud and twining is most similar to the relationship between ______.A. bullrush and coilingB. weft and warpC. willow and feathersD. sedge and weaving11. Which of the following statements about Pomo baskets can be best inferred from the passage?A. Baskets produced by other Native Americans were less varied in design than those of the Pomo.B. Baskets produced by Pomo weaves were primarily for ceremonial and religious purposes.C. There were a very limited number of basket-making materials available to the Pomo people.D. The basket-making production of the Pomo people has been increasing over the years.DJules Verne was born on 8 February1828 inthe French city of Nantes. From an early age, he had a fascination with exploration and discovery. When he was six, his teacher, Madame Sambin, told him stories about her husband, who disappeared while traveling the world on a ship 30 years before. She told her class that he was like Robinson Crusoe, a fictional castaway who lived on a desert island. Verne would later write stories about similar characters.In 1847, Verne was sent by his family to study law at a university in Paris, but he preferred to write novels, poems and plays. After graduating, he realized he wanted to write adventure stories based on science and technology.Thishad never been done before, but Verne was sure that it would be a success. His first story, Five Weeks in a Balloon, was published in September 1862. His career lasted for more than 40 years, during which time he wrote more than 60 gripping stories.To begin with, Verne wrote positive and optimistic books. Many of these were to be his most popular creations. Although some included fantastical elements, they were usually based in scientific fact, making them believable. These happy stories weren’t to last. As he got older, Verne became less confident in the idea that science and technology were always good for the planet. His books started to include more scientists who used technology for their own-sometimes evil - purposes. Verne died on 24 March 1905, but new books continued to be published until 1919. These stories were based on ideas Verne had written about while he was still alive, but featured new characters and plots created by his son, Michel.In the 20th century, his books were translated into more than 140 languages and several successful film versions were released. His creations have been recognized as an inspiration for many scientists and inventors. Many of the futuristic ideas from his most popular books have since come true.12. What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?A To show Verne’s discovery.B. To offer the background information of Verne.C. To tell of the adventure of Sambin’s husband.D. To explain how Verne began his writing career.13. What does the underlined word “This” refer to in Paragraph 2:A. Writing novels, poems and plays.B. Studying law.C. Graduating from university.D. Wring adventure stories.14. What can be learned about Verne’s late works?A. They covered happy elements.B. They were unbelievable stories.C. They revealed Verne’s doubt on science.D. They were partly written by Berne’s son.15. Which of the following best describes Verne?A. Talented and productive.B. Popular and caring.C. Optimistic and generous.D. Friendly and honest.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

But relaxation is 33 for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a 34 part of everyday life and there is no way to 35 it. In fact, it is not the bad thing that it is often supposed to be. A 36 amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give 37 to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control 38 it can lead to poor performance and 39 health.The amount of stress a person can bear 40 very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such 41 are obviously chief material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the 42 of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in 43 form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make a choice between 44 and fight. And in more ancient days the choices made the 45 between life and death. The crises we meet today are 46 to be so extreme, but however little the stress,it requires the same response. It is when such a reaction 47 long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes 48 . Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have 49 links with stress. 50 we cannot remove stress from our lives we need to find ways to deal with it. It would be unwise to do so even if we could.So what do you think of stress? What is your way to deal with it?31．A．When B．While C．Once D．As32．A．slow B．calm C．get D．turn33．A．unnecessary B．satisfied C．useful D．necessary34．A．physical B．natural C．hard D．terrible35．A．tolerate B．solve C．avoid D．accept36．A．sure B．certain C．large D．great37．A．purpose B．resource C．influence D．instruction38．A．when B．why C．that D．how39．A．ill B．good C．strong D．weak40．A．insists B．depends C．calls D．spends41．A．patterns B．personality C．situations D．characters42．A．glance B．view C．sight D．impression 43．A．whichever B．whatever C．however D．whenever44．A．peace B．fright C．pressure D．heaviness45．A．decision B．promise C．difference D．choice46．A．unlikely B．likely C．necessary D．probable47．A．continues B．lives C．stands D．lasts48．A．balanced B．injured C．endangered D．changeable 49．A．established B．achieved C．found D．developed50．A．Unless B．Since C．Because D．AsIII．阅读理解（共20题，计40分）A“We’re going,” Mimi called out to her mother in the family’s grocery store next to her house. This was her first date, and Robert Rovere had just arrived to take her toa dance. She could hardly believe it was happening. During the long wait she had wondered again and again what to wear, finally putting on her favorite blouse. Now at last Robertwas here. He looked beautiful to her. His hair was neatly combed and he wore a yellow sweater she hadn’t seen before. Mimi felt wonderful.As they stepped out of the door, Mimi’s mother popped out of the store and said hello to Robert. Then she put a package wrapped in white paper into Mimi’s hand.“Limburger cheese for Sally Thompso n, Mimi. We got a case of imported Limburger in today. I promised Sally you’d deliver it tonight.”“Tonight!” Mimi echoed, staring down at the cheese. “Why not tomorrow?”“Sorry, but I promised Sally,” her mother said. “Well, have fun, you two.”“Oh well, Robert, let’s go,” she said.Her first date ever, her first date with Robert Rovere, and she was stuck with a large, smelly, messy package of cheese! She tried to forget it. “Here I am,” she said to herself, “going to a dance with Robert Rovere.” She glanced up at him.“That cheese smells,” he said.She held the cheese in the hand farthest from him, but the smell seemed to be crawling up her arm.They turned onto Montcalm Street. Mimi didn’t know the house number, but she thought she’d recognize the house because she’d passed there once before. “Oh, here it is.” She rang the bell but nobody answered. Then she noticed that the name under the bell wasn’t Thompson. She had come to the wrong house. Oh, how embarrassing, she thought. She dropped the cheese into her coat pocket and rejoined Robert.“Wrong house,” she said. “I was sure she lived there.”“What do we do now?” Robert asked.Mimi bit her lip. She couldn’t bring the cheese home again now. It would just have to go to the dance with her. “Let’s go,” she said. She was so miserable she couldn’t think of anything else to say, and she and Robert walked the rest of the way in a silence as thick as the bad smell of the cheese.When they arrived at the dance, the place was full of people and there was no room to hang their coats. Mimi wanted to wash her hands, but Robert led her straight onto the dance floor. Mimi noticed that Robert smelled sweet, like lily of the valley. She smelled of Limburger cheese.Mimi danced with all her heart. Robert’s eyes were closed, probably trying to forget her and her smell, she thought. …51．What particular point suggests that Mimi was nervous about her date?A．She could hardly believe she had taken such a long time to get ready.B．She kept Robert waiting for a long time until she was ready.C．She spent a long time making herself look nicer.D．She wondered many times whether Robert would like the yellow sweater. 52．What happened when Mimi brought the cheese to the house?A．At first Mimi didn’t realize that it was someone else’s house.B．It was not the right house but the house number was correct.C．The wrong person came to the door.D．There was no one at the Thompson’s home.53．Which of the following was most likely to happen in the end?A．Their first date was a success.B．The smell ruined the date.C．Robert took all the cheese after the dance.D．They quarreled over the smelly cheese.BThe elephants left the shade, crossed an open piece of grass between bushes, and came towards the pool where my truck was parked. One by one they arrived on the shore, but, just as they seemed to be about to bathe in the muddy liquid, they became aware of the silent truck with its smell of man. The leading elephant merely spread her ears and backed away taking the young elephants with her.A smaller mother elephant continued to stand next to the pool, however, swinging(摇摆) her long trunk and swaying her head from side to side, always keeping an eye on the truck. The baby elephant seemed to be uncertain about whether to come on and investigate the truck or to back away with the others. Finally she made up her mind and slowly advanced on the truck. Her ears were half out, and her trunk moved inquiringly towards the vehicle and then back under her stomach in a rhythmic swing.I was fascinated by this close approach. Never before had I been able to see the hairiness around the jaw, nor smell the warn determined, and brought her to within a couple of meters of me.She gave the impression of being intensely curious about this metal object which had appeared in her world and behaved as if were itself an animal. I wondered how far she would accept the situation and, if after all the centuries of men killing elephants, she would ever allow me to approach her on foot. To be able to move freely among the elephants without their minding was an exciting thought, but I certainly did not expect it would ever be possible.54．Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?A．the elephants are curious about the author’s truckB．the author was moved by the concentrated waves of the warm scent of elephant for the firsttimeC．the elephants are friendly to man after centuries of men killing elephantD．the curiosity of the elephants to the man and the truck and the author’s happiness of approaching the elephants55．The presence of the writer and his truck .A．was not noticed by the elephants B．made the leading elephants suspiciousC．made the adult elephants away D．frightened all the elephants away 56．While he watched the mother elephant approaching, the author .A．was worried that the elephants were too closeB．found the smell very unpleasantC．was impressed by the elephant’s sizeD．saw details he had not noticed before57．The overall purpose of the passage isA．to tell a storyB．to tell us that man should get along with the elephants without killing them C．to tell people that the elephants like truckD．to give suggestions about protecting the elephantsCFor a 400 –year –old art form, operas had a bad fame: overweight actresses singing the words which are hard to understand in one of those romance languages you were supposed to learn in high school. And with tickets costing as much as $ 145 a performance, opera goers also have a certain appearance in people’s mind: rich, well – dressed and old.But now opera companies around the country are loosening their ties and kicking off their shoes in an attempt to bring the opera to the audience. It needs to keep it alive, the young and not-so-rich.Opera producers have found that to attract this crowd, they need to make the opera closer to common people. That means no formal suits, old-styled theatre or band-breaking ticket prices. And because young people don’t or won’t come to the opera, companies are bringing the opera to them, giving performances in such unusual places as parks, libraries and public schools.The Houston Grand Opera’s choice is the public library, where it performs “mobile operas”, shortened versions (剧本) of child-friendly operas. This summer’s production is Hansel & Gretel. By performing smaller versions of large productions, producers are able to make people interested while keeping costs at a reasonable level. The San Francisco Opera, which will be celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, is staging Cinderella free of charge, keeping costs down by employing students from its Young Artists’ Training Program.58．The underlined phrase “loosening their ties and kicking off their shoes” (paragraph 2) means_______.A．breaking up the old rules B．changing the formal suitsC．making the audience at ease D．advertising themselves59．Opera companies prefer to perform short versions because ________.A．it is hard to find long versionsB．short versions are easy to performC．they can perform in public librariesD．they can make more people come to opera60．The San Francisco Opera Company employs student actors in order to _______.A．celebrate its 75th anniversary B．reduce the costC．attract young people D．make Cinderella popular61．From the passage we can infer that ______.A．the tickets for operas are very expensiveB．operas are performed in a difficult languageC．operas are not so popular an art form todayD．students enjoy performing operas very muchDThe people below are trying to choose which TV program to watch. Read the descriptions and decide which program would be the most suitable.Although Rob leads a quiet life in a small village, that doesn’t stop him from wanting to find out about the latest scientific development.Bella enjoys eating out but can’t afford to spend very much at the moment as she is saving for a holiday. She has never learnt how to cook, so now might be quite a good time to find out!Dan is interested in taking wildlife photographs and enjoys any kind of program which gives him a chance to see a professional photographer at work.Gina is a music teacher. Although she prefers classical music, she likes to follow the kind of music that interests the teenagers she teaches.Ron’s wife is in hospital.

Yet more than a fifth admitted that they used age as an important standard.Although the survey found widespread agreement that older workers were better than younger colleagues when it came to reliability, commitment(承担义务), loyalty(忠诚) and customer service, these qualities were not necessarily considered to be deserving of advancement.A large number of persons believed that workers between 30 and 39 had the best promotion chances, with only 2 per cent giving examples of 50 – year – olds or above.There was evidence that people were considered old at different ages in different jobs.A young man working in IT said he was considered too old by the age of 28.In fact there was no evidence to suggest that older workers were less valuable to companies than younger workers, in fact the opposite was often true because older workers often brought experience.The findings also suggested that the Government’s ideas on age in the workforce may also be out of step with reality.67．Which is the discrimination mentioned in this passage?A．The healthier women are, the sooner they will lose their jobs.B．Society knows women should be respected, but it doesn’t offer them any jobs.C．Female mangers respect male workers, but male mangers don’t respect female workers.D．victims of age discrimination consider age as an important standard.68．Older workers are better than younger colleagues because they have many advantages except that they are .A．dependable B．married C．faithful D．helpful69．Why does the writer mention a young man working in IT?A．Because the writer thinks it a pity that this young man is old.B．Because it’s an example of different age standards in different jobs.C．Because IT industry is developing too fast.D．Because the writer doesn’t think the young man is old.70．Which statement is true according to the writer’s attitude?A．The present age standard doesn’t go with reality.B．The present age standard is reasonable.C．women should work longer than men.D．Young workers should learn from old workers.第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共20分）IV．任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格的空格处里填入最恰当的单词。

How does the power factory produce electricity?A. By using oil．B. By using coal．C. By usingwind．D. By using waste．5. What' s Ingels' dream according to the passage?A. To make more tall buildings in different big cities．B. To help more skiers to ski in high mountains．C. There will be more green power factories in the world．D. More and more people will ski in the power factory．6. Where do the skiers ski in the power factory?A. On man-made snow．B. On man-made ice．C. On plastic grass．D. On real sand．7. The underlined part “it might be all 'downhill' from here" means that________.A. they will soon reach their final goalB. they will soon draw many visitorsC. they will produce more electricityD. they have difficulties reaching the goalCElizabeth Spelke, a cognitive psychologist at Harvard, has spent her career testing the world’s most complex learning system-the mind of a baby. Babies might seem like no match for artificial intelligence (AI). They are terrible at labeling images, hopeless at mining text, and awful at video games. Then again, babies can do things beyond the reach of any AI. By just a few months old, they’ve begun to grasp the foundations of language, such as grammar. They’ve started to understand how to adapt to unfamiliar situations.Yet even experts like Spelke don’t understand precisely how babies or adults learn. Consider one of the most impressive examples of AI, Alpha Zero, a programme that plays board games with superhuman skill. After playing thousands of games against itself at a super speed, and learning from winning positions, Alpha Zero independently discovered several famous chess strategies and even invented new ones. It certainly seems like a machineeclipsinghuman cognitive abilities. But Alpha Zero needs to play millions more games than a person during practice to learn a game. Most importantly, it cannot take what it has learned from the game and apply itto another area.To some AI experts, that calls for a new approach. In a November research paper, Francois Chollet, a well-known AI engineer, argued that it’s misguided to measure machine intelligence just according to its skills at specific tasks. “Humans don’t start out with skills; they start out with a broad ability to acquire new skills,” he says. “What a strong human chess player is demonstrating is not only the ability to play chess, but the potential to fulfill any task of a similar difficulty.”8. Compared to an advanced AI programme, a baby might be better at ________.A playing games B. identifying locations C. labeling pictures D. making adjustments9. What does the underlined word “eclipsing” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Imitating.B. Beating.C. Limiting.D. Promoting.10. According to the text, Francois Chollet may agree that ________.A. AI is good at completing certain assignments.B. AI is likely to gain abilities with less training.C. AI lacks the ability of acquiring specific skills.D. AI performs better than humans in cognitive ability.11. Whichwould be the best title for this passage?A. What is exactly intelligence?B. Why is modern AI advanced?C. Where is human intelligence going?D. How do humans face the challenge of AI?DThey are smart. They know how to steal. They know how to find food. They know how to intimidate(恐吓) . Who are they? They are macaque monkeys. They have taken over the old city ofLopburiinThailand. About 8,400 of them are in the center of the city. They roam(漫游) neighborhoods in groups. Dozens of businesses in Lopburi are closing. They include a music school, a gold shop, a barber, a cellphone store and a movie theatre. The Buddhist culture believes reducing the number of monkeys would disturb spiritual well-being.The monkeys were not always such a hazard. They attracted tourists. Buddhists thought feeding them was a good deed. Now times have changed. Recently, the coronavirus made things worse. There are fewer tourists, which means that travelers give less food to the monkeys. Over the years, the monkeys moved into empty buildings. They trashed whatever they came across. They ripped(扯掉) antennas and windshield wipers off parked cars. What happens when monkeys come into contact with humans? An observer said that years ago the monkeyswere fewer, biggerand healthier. Their fur was shiny and thick. They kept to the temples，as well as the ruins of the ancient Khmer civilization.Then tourists came with easy and unhealthy food. Along with bananas and citrus(柑橘), the macaques feasted on junk food. An observer said, “The monkeys are never hungry. They are just like children who eat too much KFC. ” Compared with the monkeys of the forest, their urban counterparts have less muscle. They have more hypertension and blood disease. Their fur has thinned. Some have gone bald. With so much food available，they have more time to breed and to give birth. Their population has exploded. “These monkeys were here before us,” a man said. A juvenile macaque tugged(拽) his trousers demanding a treat. “We have to adapt to them，not the other way around. ”12. Why are macaque monkeys so popular in Lopburi inThailand?A. Because they are smart and know how to steal.B. Because they have taken over the old city ofLopburiinThailand.C. Because they are symbols of spiritual well-being in the Buddhist culture.D. Because 8,400 of them are in the centre of the city and roam everywhere.13. In what way has tourism influenced the macaque monkeys?A. The monkeys are bigger and healthier.B. The monkeys like eating KFC food.C. The monkeys have suffered from more diseases.D. The monkeys are subject to birth control.14. What does the underlined word “counterparts” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Monkeys.B. Tourists.C. Buddhists.D. Children.15. It can be inferred from what the man said that ________.A. monkeys are ancestors, so humans should adapt to monkeysB. humans should regard monkeys with awe and respectC. monkeys should be forced to follow rulesD. humans should give monkeys whatever they want第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2019-2020学年南京市金陵中学高三英语模拟试题及答案解析第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AChildren under the age of 18 will be allowed up to three hours per week to play video games, according to a notice issued by China's National Press and Publication Administration. Online game companies are required to provide services to minors — from8 to 9 p. m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays — as a way to safeguard their physical and mental health. Children are playing more and more online games these days. Is it time to limit their online gaming time? What role do parents have? Readers share their opinions.RizlaredOnline games are addictive, but if children are taught how to manage in a sensible and responsible manner then it is no longer a threat(威胁).To achieve this, parents need to set examples for not being glued to their phones. Teaching is and always will be the best solution to such problems.AndrewGood policy. By limiting time spent on online games, kids can spend time doing more useful things to develop their potential. They can go outside and run, jump and swim instead of sitting on a couch at home and playing with a smart phone.AdamIt is often seen that parents argue with children over cellphones. Most parents can hardly set and enforce the time limit for its daily usage. Some forcibly take away their cellphones, but it will ruin trust and relationship. Even worse, it will make their kids hate them.PinkExcessive(过度的）gaming is purely a waste of time and energy for minors and has a negative effect on both physical and mental health. The gaming industry should not put profit- flaking interests as its priority (优先事项) . They should act in a socially responsible way toprovide an environment for children to ensure their well-being and development.LaurenThere would be a loophole(漏洞). Children could use their parents’ or other adults’ IDs to avoid real-name registration, thus making it impossible to put this policy in effect. Parents ly need to strengthen guidance andsupervision to keep their children from gaming addiction.1. What should kids do according to Andrew?A. Play online games.B. Play with a smart phone.C. Study all the time.D. Go in for outside activities.2. What does Pink advise the gaming industry to do?A. Pay attention to its profit.B. Focus on kids’ health.C. Be responsible for kids’ surroundings.D. Persuade kids lo play more games.3. What role do parents have according to the passage?A. They keep hold of their phones.B. They set examples for their kids.C. They limit their kids’ time.D. They blame kids for addiction.BThink ofJapanin the spring and the image that comes to mind is likely the country’s famous cherry blossoms, also known as “Sakura” — white and pink flowers, blooming across cities and mountains.The flowers, which experience a “peak bloom” that only lasts a few days, have been loved inJapanfor more than a thousand years. Crowds celebrate with viewing parties,flockingto the most popular locations to take photos and have picnics underneath the branches.But this year, cherry blossom season has come and gone in the blink of an eye, in one of the earliest blooms on record. Scientists warn it’s a symptom of the larger climate crisis threatening ecosystems everywhere.Yasuyuki Aono, a researcher atOsakaPrefectureUniversity, has gathered records fromKyotoback to 812 AD from historical documents and diaries. In the central city ofKyoto, cherry blossoms peaked on March 26, the earliest in more than 1,200 years, Aono said. And in the capitalTokyo, cherry blossoms reached full bloom on March 22, the second-earliest date on record.The peak bloom dates shift every year, depending on numerous factors including weather and rainfall, but have shown a general trend of moving earlier and earlier. InKyoto, the peak date stayed around mid-April for centuries, but began moving into early April during the 1800s. The date has only dipped into late March a handful of times in recorded history.“Sakura blooms are very temperature sensitive,” said Aono. “Flowering and full bloom could be earlier or later depending on the temperature alone,” he said. “The temperature was low in the 1820s, but it has risen by about 3.5 degrees Celsius to this day.”This year’s seasons in particular influenced the blossom dates, he added. The winter was very cold, but thespring came fast and unusually warm.4. What is the best title of the passage?A. Cherry blossom celebrations.B. Warning of a climate crisis.C. A strong love for cherry blossom.D. Cherry blossom season coming earlier.5. What does the underlined word “flocking” mean?A. Blocking.B. Flooding.C. Running.D. Following.6. What can we infer from paragraph 5?A. The peak blossom dates fall on a fixed date.B. The cherry blossom rarely peaks in March.C. The peak bloom dates mainly depend on weather and rainfall.D. Cherry blossom peaks around mid-April inTokyo.7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To inform people the date of cherry blossom.B. To show a study on cherry blossom dates.C. To present a Japanese tradition of cherry blossom celebration.D. To make people aware of the influence of climate change on cherry blossom.CDogs are often referred to as “man's best friend”. But MacKenzie, a four-pound Chihuahua (奇瓦瓦狗), who was named winner of the 2020 American Hero Dog competition, is making the world a better place for humans and animals alike. Often called the “Oscars for dogs”, the award recognizes dogs who make great contributions to society.This year's competition attracted over 400 competitors from across the country. While all were impressive, it was tiny MacKenzie who won the judges' hearts. Born at a rescue shelter in Hilton, New York, in 2013, she had a cleft palate (腭裂) that required her to be tube fed for the first year of her life. A life-saving operation, performed in 2014, gave her the ability to eat and drink independently, enabling the tiny dog to focus on doing what she loved most: taking care of others.The seven-year-old Chihuahua is now gainfully “employed” by the Mid Foundation, a Rochester, New York-based non-profit organization that shelters and cares for animals born with disabilities. MacKenzie's officialjob is “to provide love and care for baby rescue animals born with birth defects”. The Chihuahua is good at her job and hasnurturedmany different species-from puppies to kittens to turkeys, squirrels, birds and even a goat. She acts as their mother and teaches them how to socialize, play, and have good manners.In addition to her role as an animal caretaker, MacKenzie also has the important job of greeting the foundation's volunteers and friends. The incredible dog, who has lost her ability to bark, also visits area schools to help children understand physical disabilities in both animals and people. Her heart-warming and inspiring story makes MacKenzie worthy of America's top dog honor!8. What made MacKenzie American Hero Dog?A. Being man's best friend.B. Her struggle with disabilities.C. Rescuing animals with disabilities.D. Her contributions to a better world.9. What can we infer about MacKenzie from Paragraph 2?A. Her growth path was not easy.B. She was deserted by her owner.C. She was operated on at two years old.D. She still needs taking care of by others.10. What does the underlined word “nurtured” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Trained.B. Comforted.C. Tended.D. Abused.11. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. MacKenzie—The Most Hard-working DogB. MacKenzie—America's “Most Heroic Dog”C. Chihuahua—Inspiration of Positive EnergyD. Chihuahua—Appeal for Animals' ProtectionDChinese paleontologists (古生物学家) have determined that, about 47 million years ago, subtropical forests once existed on the high-altitude Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.The conclusion, which appears in a paper published on Tuesday, was drawn based on the large number of fossils found in theBaingoinBasinat an altitude of nearly 5,000 meters during the second comprehensive scientific expedition to the plateau.A joint team from theXishuangbannaTropicalBotanical Gardenconducted the research on the fossils. By combining the findings and models, the team recreated the climate and altitude that existed 47 million years ago, showing that the central plateau had an altitude of just 1,500 meters and an annual average temperature of 19℃, says Su Tao, a researcher from the tropical botanical garden and first author of the paper.“It was covered by thick forest and was rich in water and grass. It is fair tocall it the ‘ShangriLa’ of ancient times,” Su adds.The researchers have also found over 70 plant fossils, the majority of which are most closely related to plant life in today's subtropical or tropical regions.“This is enough to show that the central part of the now high-altitude, freezing Qinghai-Tibet Plateau had flourishing subtropical plants 47 million years ago,” Su says.The findings provide new evidence for the study of the evolutionary history of biodiversity and the evolution of the plateau's landscape, according to Zhou Zhekun, the paper's corresponding author and a researcher at the tropical botanical garden.Chinalaunched the second comprehensive scientific expedition to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in June 2017, 40 years after the first. Lasting up to 10 years, the expedition will conduct a series of studies focusing on the plateau's glaciers, its biodiversity and ecological changes, and will also monitor the changes in climate.12. How did the paper come to the conclusion?A. Through the observation of the Baingoin basin.B. Through the fossils found in scientific expedition.C. Through the drawing of a large number of fossils.D. Through the adventure on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.13. What can be inferred according to Su Tao?A. The average altitude of the plateau was 1,500 meters.B. “Shangrila”means a place with abundant water and grass.C. The flourishing subtropical plants have covered the plateau.D. The fossils found by researchers are tropical or subtropical plants now.14. Where might the passage come from?A. The Times.B. The Wall Street Journal.C. Chinese National Geography.D. The Economist.15. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To instruct.B. To educate.C. To persuade.D. To inform.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
