河北省唐山市2018届高三第一次模拟考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Amsterdam is a special city. There are many places you should not miss during your visit. Here is our list of the best.Amsterdam canal ringThe city old centre is formed from canal rings which give you the feeling of space, freedom and peace. Walk trough these canal streets or better—take a trip by renting a boat yourself. Another way to explore the Venice of the North is to take a ride or a bicycle. Any way you decide for—enjoy this city.The National Maritime MuseumThe Maritime Museum is an attractive place to visit, especially with children. With many attractions in it, this colourful and enjoyable museum will help you understand the history of the Netherlands—a small nation which was one of the world’s greatest sea powers.Amsterdam Brown CafeWhen you enter Amsterdam old cafes called Brown, at first it will seem too much from the past and too crowded, but the atmosphere is unique. Relax and watch—most of people around will be locals. Feel like one of them—the real Amsterdammers.Civic Guards GalleryThis gallery is filed with old paintings from the Dutch Golden Age. The exhibited canvas may be not always the masterpieces of art, but these group portraits of Amsterdam citizens and their wives are an exquisite (精致的) document of the Dutch civilization and culture centuries ago.To avoid waiting lines we advise you to buy your tickets in advance online through our Amsterdam attractions and museums tickets webpage.1．How many ways are there for tourists to visit the city old centre?A．5.B．4.C．3.D．2.2．Where would you go to learn more about local life?A．Amsterdam Brown Cafe.B．Amsterdam canal ring.C．Civic Guards Gallery.D．The National Maritime Museum.3．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A fiction.B．A textbook.C．A travel guide.D．A science magazine.Quietly siting there reading, I found myself suddenly listening to the train guard’s announcement. Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling!Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall, the guard said something along these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Children, this is the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morn ing and I hope to see you again soon.”Quite a few people (obviously previous strangers) started talking to one another about the guard’s excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel. I started thinking about this, and then I found the young gu ard and said “Were you the guard on the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yyyyes.”“Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passenger s such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.”I said.There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefi ts that accumulate from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine the conversation that guard would have when he got home?4．Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements?A．They usually feel sleepy.B．The messages are unattractive.C．The guard’s voice is not clear.D．They are absorbed in books.5．What does the underlined word “stunned”in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Patient.B．Cautious.C．Excited.D．Surprise.6．What might the guard talk about with his family when he got home?A．The beautiful weather.B．The recorded message.C．The train from Penrith.D．The unexpected appreciation.7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Boring Train StoryB．An Intelligent GuardC．A Different Train AnnouncementD．A Lovely Morning in SydneyIt’s 3 o’clock and you’ve been hard at work. As you sit at your desk, a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you. You try to busy yourself to make it go away. But it doesn’t. Here is another situation. Perhaps you are not feeling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mum used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food. And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way. Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain. They even call it simply “stomach hunger”. When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten, a hormone (激素) sends a message to one part of the brain for more food, which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst, hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex. It activates brain areas related to emotion, memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. Because of this, some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger”. People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain. These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.In a 2007 study, researchers at Cambridge University found that dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food cravings. So, the more you deny yourself a food that you want, the more you may crave it. However, fasting (禁食) is a bit different. They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings.So, the next time you crave something very specific, know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach.8．What is the function of the first paragraph?A．To deepen the understanding of hunger.B．To lead to the topic of the whole passage.C．To report the discovery of craving study.D．To remind readers of their own special food.9．What do we learn about food cravings?A．It means the stomach functions well. B．It ensures a person survives hunger. C．It shows food is linked to feelings. D．It proves the brain decides your appetite. 10．What’s the likely result of dieting?A．The increase of food desire. B．The decrease of chemicals.C．The refusal of fat and sugar. D．The disappearance of appetite. 11．What does the passage mainly discuss?A．The findings of food cravings. B．What hunger is all about.C．The functions of brain areas. D．What dieting may bring us.Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and help them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence, or A．I., to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced over 1000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers at Brown’s Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars.It is an idea that has appealed to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliott bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Eliot is at work. Elliott said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message.
