The public are concerned about this regulation, expressing their opinions on it from different perspectives.(30 words)As a senior school student, I give applause to this regulation. School is a place where every student should obey rules, and if not, they should be responsible for what they’ ve done Additionally, proper punishment is a good way to teach students to figure out how to behave themselves, which is also a good example to instruct othersAs to how to discipline students, proper measures, I think, come first to prevent students from violating school rules. School regulations are to be transparently issued, which helps all the people concerned know how students should behave on campus. Besides, teachers should be more patient with students for effective communication. Only with joint efforts can students learn to obey the school rules. (120 words)。

Almost everyone knows the story of Cinderella ﹣ a servant （仆人） girl who wears a glass slipper （玻璃鞋） and wins the heart of a prince． Disney has remade the classic fairy tale into a new movie．We are first introduced to a beautiful girl named Ella．（1）________ Ella then welcomes her stepmother （继母） and her daughters． But when Ella's father unexpectedly dies too，she finds herself living with a horrible new family． Her stepmother and stepsisters make her into a servant girl． They even rename her Cinderella because she is often covered in cinders （煤灰） because of sleeping by the fireplace．Most people might become disappointed （沮丧的） and angry in such a situation． But Ella doesn't．She tells herself to stay strong and be kind．One day， Ella meets a charming stranger in the woods． She doesn't know he is a prince．Soon an invitation to a palace ball comes． Ella might see the young man again．（2）________ As in all good fairy tales， a beggar （乞丐） appears． She uses her magic to help Ella and changes her life forever．Kenneth Branagh， director of the movie， believes people love Cinderella because they connect with the story on a deep level．"Cinderella is certainly placed in a hard situation， but she chooses not to be the girl in distress （痛苦） and we see her make strong， positive choices in that situation，" he told Glamour magazine． " （3）________"A． She is the master of her own destiny （命运）．B． However， her stepmother won't let her go．C． Whatever she wishes， she will see her dream come true．D． Her mother dies and her father remarries．17. It is two in the morning． The wind is getting stronger and there is a chance that it will rain． Though the weather is bad, Al Gehrke sits 110 floors above the ground, 442 meters above the earth． You may be wondering what he is doing so far off the ground． If you asked him, he would say, "________Al Gehrke has a very special job that not many people would want to have． He manages one of the tallest buildings in the world ﹣ the Wills Tower in Chicago． His team washes and changes the windows． The Wills Tower has 16, 000 windows and each window weighs over 90 kilos． Gehrke and his team work from seven in the evening until four in the morning． They clean 18 windows each night． Each window takes almost 30 minutes． Al Gehrke is not afraid of high places and he is a good man for the job．Mary Ann also has an unusual job． Instead of hanging high above the earth washing windows, she works under the water． She trains dolphins for shows and also helps people to swim with the dolphins． She loves the dolphins． "We never tell a dolphin what to do． We ask them respectfully． They decide to do that for us because of the relationship we have, " she said．Besides washing windows high above the earth or swimming with big fish under the water, there are other unusual jobs that you have probably never thought of people having． Here is another strange example: karaoke singers! A karaoke singer is someone who sings the songs of famous singers． The singer is able to follow the words of the songs because they appear on a computer in front of them． In Cyprus, karaoke singers are very popular． They sing to the people on holiday． As the visitors travel around the island they can listen to the music of the karaoke singers．（1）By saying "________" in Paragraph 1， Al Gehrke is most likely to tell us________．A his job is difficult to doB he is brave and strongC he can make muchmoney D his job is nothing special．（2）According to the third paragraph， Mary Ann________．A considers herself unusualB teaches people how to swimC has a great love for dolphinsD works long hours every day．（3）The writer is trying to introduce some unusual jobs by________．A holding some activitiesB offering some examplesC comparing severalones D telling some funny stories．18. Every year in Bath, England, there is a special festival． People dress up in period clothes and have concerts and balls． They are celebrating the Jane AustenFestival．Jane Austen is an English writer． Born in Steventon, England, 1775, Austen was mostly educated at home, where she teamed how to play the piano, draw and write creatively． She read a lot and later came to enjoy social events such as parties, dances and balls． She disliked the busy life of towns and preferred the country life, where she took to taking long walks．In 1801, Jane, her parents and sister moved to Bath． Four years later, her father passed away and the family soon became poor． Austen and her family moved several times until finally settling（安顿）into a small house in Chawton． It was in this house that she wrote most of her works．In March of 1817, Austen got serious health problems and was sent to Winchester for a cure so she had to stop writing． She died in July of the same year, at the age of only 41．Austen was famous for her humorous words and clever ideas． Most of her novels are about women in 18th century England． At that time, if a woman wanted to have a happy life, she had to marry a rich man． But Austen said that a woman should marry for love, not for money or social status（地位）．So her characters were often strong women．Pride and Prejudice（偏见）, published in 1813, is the most famous novel by Austen． It tells of a romantic story between a young woman Elizabeth and a tall, rich, and handsomeman, Mr． Darcy． It has been changed into films, televisions and musicals（1）Which of the following is TRUE about Austen？________A She loved reading and taking long walks．B She received education incollege． C She hated parties， balls and dances． D She preferred the city life．（2）Where did Austen write most of her works？________A In a small house in Winchester．B In a small house in ChawtonC In Steventon，England．D In the countryside of Bath．．（3）What's the correct order of the following events？________a． Jane Austen， her parents and sister moved to Bath．b． Jane Austen got seriously ill and stopped writing．c． Jane Austen learned how to play the piano， draw and write creatively．d． Jane Austen wrote and published her most famous novel Pride and Prejudice．A c﹣a﹣d﹣bB a﹣c﹣b﹣dC d﹣b﹣c﹣aD c﹣a﹣b﹣d．19. In 1969, as US astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon, he famously declared, 'That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind．' And as many countries come together to celebrate World Space Week from Oct 4﹣10, it seems that there are still many leaps to take．During ancient times, our only steps were back and forth across the surface of our own planet． We climbed to the top of mountains, or sailed in boats across oceans． But wedidn't, and couldn't, leave the surface of our planet．It's not surprising that back then, the so﹣called heavens fascinated（使着迷） us so much．How could they not? How could people not be ________ with the great object in thesky that arrived each day with light and then left, taking the light with it? Or the mysterious moon, stars and planets that lit up the night sky? Compared with us, these things seemedso free and exciting． Different cultures created stories about the heavens． The Chinese referred to a 'King of the Sky' who created the heavens and decorated them with stars; the ancient Greeks had 'the Sky Gods' who controlled the weather．Few of us believe those stories anymore ﹣ science has taught us better． And yet the heavens, or what we now call 'space' and 'outer space', are still a source of mystery and fascination for us．Yes, there are space stations, satellites and trips to other planets． None of this modern science, however, has made space any less fascinating to us．As the American scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson said, 'The universe is under no obligation （义务）to make sense to you．' The more we know, the more our curiosity grows．Even today, the most popular novels and movies are set on other planets, solar systems （太阳系）or galaxies （星系）． Space is still mysterious, as it was for the ancient Chinese, Greeks and Romans． And perhaps it always will be．（1）The author used Neil Armstrong's story to________．A describe how the celebration of World Space Week beganB draw attention to great achievements in space explorationC explain why human beings are curious about outer spaceD predict（预报） future space programs that might change history．（2）The underline word 'obsessed' in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to________．A happyB interestedC satisfiedD bored．（3）Compared with modern people， ancient Greeks________．A didn't leave many records of space objectsB believed the King of the Sky controlled the weatherC shared a similar curiosity about the universeD showed little respect for the power of nature．（4）What's the article mainly about？________A Important events in space exploration history．B Human's unchangeable interest in space．C Ancient stories inspired（激发，产生） by the heavens．D What we have learned about the universe．四、词汇运用（每小题1分，满分4分）（A）根据句意和汉语注释，写出单词的正确形式．20. ________（尽管） there isn't enough time for us， we'll try our best．21.

It's rare to see a person inspire a new word． But that's what Chinese volleyball superstar Zhu Ting has accomplished． "Stay awesome and ZHUperb !" Volleywood， a US ﹣based blog website for volleyball fans， recently coined the word "ZHUperb"， which combines "Zhu" and "superb"， to describe the 24﹣year﹣old player's dominance （支配）on the court．At a young age， Zhu is captain of China women's national volleyball team． But it hasn't been easy for Zhu to get to where she is today．Born to a farming family in Henan province， Zhu got a hard﹣won chance to attend a local sports school at the age of 13． The player got homesick during the first few months of training． But later she got over it， and made progress week on week． She quickly succeed in entering the national youth team from the provincial youth team．In 2013， she became famous after helping the Chinese U20 team to win the title at the 2013 FIVB U20 World Championship． Then Zhu was enlisted in the national team and met the famous coach Lang Ping． At the beginning， as a 1.98﹣meter﹣tall girl， Zhu found it difficult to move fast and hold her weight on her feet， but Lang thought it as her advantage． She trained her to jump high to smash （扣杀） the ball． After this， she became an ace spiker （主攻手）．Zhu still works up a sweat （汗） during training． "Hard work and talent are equally important． I'll move forward step by step，" she told People's Daily．Title： Zhu Ting﹣The superstar who inspires a new word ZHUperb七、完成句子按所给的汉语，用英语完成下列句子（每小题1. 5分，满分9.0分）37. 目前，网速的提升已推动了智能手机的发展．Up to now， the promotion of Internet speed________ smart phones．38. 那天，他真后悔没有及时开展调查，错失了最后的机会．The other day， he really________ the survey in time and missed his last chance．39. 现代科技已经对我们的日常生活产生巨大变化，我们简直离不开它们．Modern science and technology________ to our daily life that we can hardly live without them．40. 青少年应该学会辨别有哪些电子邮件是真正值得回复的．Teenagers are supposed to tell which emails________．41. 罗素兄弟导演的《复联4》电影很精彩，赢得了众多影迷的高度评价．Avengers 4 directed by Russo Brothers is such a wonderful film________by a number of fans．42. 事实上，父母再怎么关注孩子们的健康和安全都不为过．In fact， to parents， children's health and safety can________．八、书面表达（满分10分）43. 假如你是林涛，你的笔友Sam在学校和同学发生了一些矛盾．现在他来信，请你给他一些关于怎样与他人相处和自我保护的建议．请根据下面表格提示，用英文给他写一封回信写作要求：1．短文内容必须包含所给要点，并适当发挥2．语句通顺、语法正确、书写规范3．文中不能出现考生的真实姓名、校名和地名；4：词数80左右．开头和结尾已给出，但不计入总词数．爹考词汇： respect尊重Dear Sam，How is it going？ I'm happy to tell you how to get on well with others and protect ourselves．________．Best wishes!Yours，Lin Tao2020年江苏省无锡市中考英语一模试卷（1）答案1.

2020年江苏省苏锡常镇四市高三教学情况调研英语试题第一部分听力（略）第二部分阅读理解第一节：每小题2.5分AUniversal Studios Beijing is under construction and will be opened in 2021. It will be the fifth Universal Studios in the word. Universal Studios Beijing will bring in the classical Universal Studios entertainment projects including: The Magic World of Harry Potter, 3D Adventure of Transformers, Minion 3D Roller Coaster, River Adventure of Jurassic Park and so on. In addition, Chinese themed projects will be designed specially for Universal Studios Beijing.Here are some recommended projects inside:The Magic World of Harry PotterThe Harry Potter Theme Park which swept the world will come in Beijing. The Hogwarts school, Diagon Alley, Hagrid's pumpkin house and other famous scenes will be reproduced in Universal Studios Beijing.Besides, the world's top technology- 4D riding equipment and the highest double track roller coaster will be available here.3D Adventure of TransformersThis project in Universal Studios Beijing perfectly combines 3D media and flight adventure, creating a unique experience that allows people to shuttle through reality and virtual images.Minion 3D Roller CoasterHere you can meet with Minion in reality. You can start your adventure from Gru's home and have a wonderful trip with Gru’s daughters and Minion.River Adventure of Jurassic ParkThis adventure is based on the movie “Jurassic Park ”. You can see dinosaurs living in the jungle. You will take a raft and escape from a huge meat-hunting dinosaur.In order to fit in Chinese culture better, the company will create moreChinese-themed entertainment projects. For example, Kung Fu Panda will be the key attraction of Universal Studios Beijing. What's more, in consideration of Beijing's long winter and some other weather factors, the constructors develop will more indoor amusement projects on the basis of classic projects.How to get to Universal Studios BeijingAfter being opened, the east extension of Subway Line 7 and the south extension of Batong Line will have a stop here.1. You may meet relatives of movie heroes in ________.A. Harry Potter Theme ParkB. Transformers Theme ParkC. Minion Theme ParkD. Jurassic Park2. More indoor amusement projects will be built due to ________.A. weather conditionsB. safety considerationsC. economic factorsD. tourists’ requests3. We are likely to find this passage in the ________ section of a newspaper.A. economyB. entertainmentC. scienceD. sportsBIf you look across the entire lifespan, what you see is an average increase in desirable personality traits（特点）.Psychologists call this the “maturity principle” and it’s comforting to know that, assuming your personality follows a typical course, then the older you get, the maturer you will become. However, it’s not such good news for young adolescents, because at this point, something known as the “disruption hypothesis” kicks in.Consider a study of Dutch teenagers who completed personality tests each year for six or seven years from 2005. The boys showed a temporary dip in conscientiousness—orderliness and self-discilpline in early adolescence, and the girls showed a temporary increase in neuroticism—emotional instability. This seems to back up some of the stereotypes we have of messy teen bedroomsand mood swings. Thankfully, this decline in personality is short-lived, with the Dutch data showing that the teenagers’ previous positive traits rebound （反弹）in later adolescence.Both parents and their teenage children agree that changes occur, but surprisingly, the perceived change can depend on who is measuring, according to a 2017 study of over 2,700 German teenagers. They rated their own personalities twice, at age 11 and age 14, and their parents also rated their personalities at these times. Some differences emerged: for instance, while the teenagers rated themselves as declining in agreeability, their parents saw this decline as much shaper. Also, the teens saw themselves as increasingly extroverted（外向的）, but their parents saw them as increasingly introverted.This mismatch can perhaps be explained by the big changes underway in the parent-child relationship brought on by teenagers’ growing desire for autonomy and privacy. The researchers point out that parents and teens might also be using different reference points—parents are measuring their teenagers’traits against a typical adult, while the teenagers are comparing their own traits against those displayed by their peers.This is in line with several further studies, which also reveal a pattern of a temporary reduction in advantageous traits in early adolescence. The general picture of the teenage years as a temporary personality “disruption” therefore seems accurate. In fact, we’re only just beginning to understand the complex mix of genetic and environmental factors that contribute to individual patterns of personality change.Studies also offer some clues for how we might create more nurturing environments for teenagers to aid their personality development. This is an approach worth pushing further given that teenage personality traits are predictive of experiences in later life. For instance, one British study of over 4,000 teenagers showed that those who scores lower in conscientiousness were twice as likely to be unemployed later in life, in comparison with those who scored higher.People focus so much on teaching teenagers facts and getting them to pass exams, but perhaps they ought to pay at least as much attention to helping nurture their personalities. .4.

Cautious.CLondon, New York, Tokyo and Paris these famous cities have a commanding influence on the world economy and are home to millions of people, as well as internationally famous arts, culture and educational institutions. But they are hardly representative of the rest of the world’s cities. While 54% of the global population live in cities, around half of those live in cities that have500,000 inhabitants or fewer.These “ordinary” cities can be overlooked by politicians, investors, researchers and big businesses. But they are dynamic places with many layers of social, cultural and economic significance. After experiencing a period ofpost-industrial decline, many such cities are considering urban regeneration (再生) programmes.But that doesn't mean they have to follow the same path as other urban areas. In fact, the research into urban development has found that ordinary cities can avoid some of the ill effects of regeneration, by embracing what makes them unique.At the turn of the century, city leaders became increasingly interested in the idea of the “creative city,” The idea was to encourage a “creat ive class” of talented workers to make their homes and businesses in cities, by creating urban spaces that are open, inclusive and diverse, as well as attractive and technologically advanced.“Regeneration” became a buzzword associated with these types of strategies, which seek to repurpose seemingly disused or rundown spaces to support an economy led by creative and technological industries. The apparent success of creative city policies was seen in post-industrial centres such as Detroit, US, following investments in cultural, artistic and musical urban renewal.Such policies swiftly became the go-to strategy for seemingly “ordinary” post-industrial cities around the world, even resulting in new rankings thatpit cities against each other, based on criteria including entrepreneurship (创业精神), urban leadership and “liveability”. Having plenty of former industrial spaces that can be adapted for new uses, and a desire to be noticed on the national or global stage, encourages investment in urban regeneration from both public and private sources.Yet regeneration programmes inspired by the creative city agenda can cause problems. Property developers (地产开发商) and foreign investors haverecognized the economic potential of real estate(房地产) in “creative”cities. This has led to rocketing land costs, and many low-income residentshave felt the effects of being displaced from their homes.Yet as more cities seek to emphasize their cultural assets(资产), cityleaders and policy makers must be aware of the negative impacts that can ariseif local residents are not central to the decision-making process. Thisemphasizes the need to consider local contexts and communities before operating , copycat creative policies.8. Some famous cities can’t represent the rest of the world's c ities inthat____________.A. they are always ignored by politicians, researchers and businessmenB. they accommodate millions of people but don't contribute to the worldeconomy.C. about a quarter of global population live in middle-sized and small cities.D. not all famous arts culture and educational organizations are distributed there.9. What measure was probably taken by cities like Detroit to promote citydevelopment?A. Using culture and art as a driving force.B. Forcing low-income residents to move.C. Following the same path as some big cities.D. Encouraging industrial investment continuously.10. What does the author want to stress in the passage?A. Cities should copy regeneration programmes.B. Cities should compete with each other based on some criteria.C. Cities should seek financial support from sources around the world.D. Cities should consider regional factors before using creative policies.11. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Ordinary cities successfully avoid ill-effects of development.B. Ordinary cities don' t have to copy trends to regenerate.C. Ordinary cities are trying to recover from post-industrial decline.D. Ordinary cities are dynamic places with social importance.D“A teacher affects eternity( 永恒); he can never tell where his influence stops.”---Henry Adams He was eight years old. A telegram came from the hospital, and since his father, a Russian immigrant, could not read English, Morrie had to break the news, reading his mother's death notice like a student read in front of the class. “We regret to inform yo u.." he began.On the morning of the funeral, Morrie's relatives came down the steps ofhis tenement building on the poor Lower East Side of Manhattan. At the cemetery, Morrie watched as they shoveled dirt into his mother's gave. He tried to retell the tender moments they had shared when she was alive. She had operated a candy store until she got sick, after which she mostly slept or sat by the window, looking frail and weak. Sometimes she would yell out for her son to get her some medicine, and young Morrie, playing stickball in the street, would pretend he did not hear her.In his mind he believed he could make the illness go away by ignoring it.How else can a child deal with death?Morrie's father, whom everyone called Charlie, had come to America to escape the Russian Army. He worked in the fur business, but constantly out of a job. Uneducated and barely able to speak English, he was terribly poor, and the family was on the public assistance much of the time. Sometimes, to make money, Morrie and his younger brother, David, would wash porch steps together for a nickel(镍币).One morning, David couldn't move. He had polio(小儿麻痹症). For a longtime- -as his brother was taken back and forth to a special medial home and was forced to wear braces on his les, which left him limping-- Morrie felt responsible.So in the mornings, he went to synagogue(犹太教会堂) and he stood among the swaying men in their long black coats and he asked God to take care of his dead mother and his sick brother.And in the afternoons , he stood at the bottom of the subway steps and sold magazines, turning whatever money he made over to his family to buy food.In the evenings, he watched his father eat in silence, hoping for- -but never getting --a show of affection, communication, warmth.At nine years old, he felt as if the weight of a mountain were on his shoulders.But a saving embrace came into Morrie's life the following year: his new stepmother, Eva. She was a short Romanian immigrant with plain features, curly brown hair, and the energy of two women. She had a glow(光) that warmed the otherwise murky atmosphere his father created. She talked when her new husband was silent, she sang songs to the children at night.Morrie took comfort in her smoothing voice, her school lessons, her strong character. When his brother returned from the medical home, still wearing braces from the polio, the two of them shared a rollaway bed in the kitchen of their apartment, and Eva would kiss them good-night. Morrie waited on those kisses like a puppy waits on milk, and he felt, deep down, that he had a mother again.There was no escaping their poverty, however. Because of the Depression, Morrie's father found even less work in the fur business.Still, despite their circumstances, Morrie was taught to love and to care. And to learn. Eva would accept nothing less than excellence in school, because she saw education as the only antidote to their poverty. She herself went to night school to improve her English. Morrie's love for education was hatched in her arms.He studied at night, by the lamp at the kitchen table. And in the mornings he would go to synagogue to say Kaddish- the memorial prayer for the dead- for his mother. He did this to keep her memory alive.“What will you do?" Eva would ask him.“I don't know," he would say. He ruled out law, because he didn’t like lawyers, and he ruled out medicine, because he couldn't take the sight of blood.“What will you do?"It was only through default that the best professor I ever had became a teacher.12. Why didn't Morrie respond to Mother's yelling for medicine?A. He didn't know how to help his mother.B. He was too focused on playing stickball.C. He was lost in tender moments they shared in the past.D. He was too young to understand what was happening to his family.13. After Eva joined in the family, Morrie ________.A. began to enjoy a materially rich lifeB. witnessed his father changing the atmosphereC. partly recovered from the sufferings in his lifeD. was forced to pursue academic achievements14. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “antidote”?A. Alternative.B. Credit.C. Exception.D. Solution.15. What can we learn from the story?A. Every cloud has a silver lining.B. No man is wise at all times.C. Time and tide wait for no man.D.
