units?A.644B.658C.664D.720E.749译文七个立方体,体积分别是1,8,27,64,125,216,343个立方单位,依次按照体积大小由底到顶垂直地堆积成一座塔.除了最底部的立方体,每个立方体的底面都完全被下面的立方体的顶面覆盖.问这座塔的表面积(包括底面)是多少个平方单位?解这七个数都是立方数,则这七个立方体的棱长分别是1,2,3,4,5,6,7,从而塔的侧面积为4×(12+22+...+72)= 560,而上、下底面积之和为2×72=98,共658,故(B)正确.11.What is the median of the following list of4040num-bers?1,2,3,...,2020,12,22,32,...,20202A.1974.5B.1975.5C.1976.5D.1977.5E.1978.5译文下列4040个数:1,2,3,...,2020,12,22,32,..., 20202的中位数是多少?解由于442=1936,452=2025,从而以上数列按递增排列的话,就成为:1,12,...,4,22,...,1936,442,...,1976,1977,...,2020,452,462, (20202)此时,1976成为第2020个数,所求中位数为1976+19772=1976.5,故(C)正确.12.Triangle∆AMC is isosceles with AM=AC.Me-dians MV and CU are perpendicular to each other,and MV=CU=12.What is the area of∆AMC?A.48B.72C.96D.144E.192译文等腰∆AMC中,AM=AC,中线MV和CU互相垂直,且MV=CU=12.则∆AMC的面积是多少?解如图示,设MV交UC于点E,过A作AD⊥MC于D,交UV于F,则AD是MC的中垂线.依题意,U,V分别是AM,AC的中点,则UV是∆AMC的中位线,且UM=V C=12AM,从而∆UMC =∆V CM(SSS),可得∠UCM=∠V MC=45◦,因此图1EM=EC,点E在AD上.于是∆UV E ∆CME,且均是等腰直角三角形,因而UECE=UVCM=12⇒CE=23CU=8,进而CD=DE=4√2,EF=12DE=2√2,MC=2DC=8√2;又∆AUV ∆AMC,得AFAD=UVMC=12⇒AD=2DF=12√2.故S∆AMC=12MC·AD=8√2×12√22=96,(C)正确.13.A frog sitting at the point(1,2)begins a sequence ofjumps,where each jump is parallel to one of the coordinate ax-es and has length1,and the direction of each jump(up,down,left,right)is chosen independently at

1处,它可以向四个方向跳跃,概率均为14,向左跳跃,立刻达成目标;向上、向右、向下分别跳跃到点A 1,C,A 3处,再通过其它跳跃达成目标.根据对称性,青蛙由点A 1,A 2,A 3,A4图2出发达成目标的概率是一样的,设为a ;青蛙由点B 1,B 2出发达成目标的概率是一样的,设为b ;青蛙由点F 1,F 2出发达成目标的概率是一样的,设为x ;青蛙由点C 出发达成目标的概率设为c .因此,P (青蛙由F 1出发达成目标)=P (青蛙向左)+P (青蛙向上)×P (青蛙由A 1出发达成目标)+P (青蛙向右)×P (青蛙由C 出发达成目标)+P (青蛙向下)×P (青蛙由A 3出发达成目标),即有x =14+a 2+c4;同理,可得方程组x =14+a 2+c 4a =14+x 4+b 4b =a 2+c 4c =x 2+b 2成立,解得x =58,a =12,b =38,c

)2−2xy =20,x 3+y 3=(x +y )(x 2−xy +y 2)=88,原式=x +y 3x 2+y +x 3y 2=x 3+y 3x 2+x 3+y 3y 2=88(x 2+y 2)x 2y 2=440.故(D)正确.15.A positive integer divisor of 12!is chosen at random.The probability that the divisor is a perfect square can be ex-pressed as mn,where m and n are relatively prime positive in-tegers.What is m +n ?A.3B.5C.12D.18E.23译文随机选取12!的一个正整数因子,该因子是一个完全平方数的概率可以表示为mn,其中m,n 为互素的正整数.则m +n 是多少?解由于12!=210×35×52×7×11,则12!有11×6×3×2×2=792个正因子;设k 是12!的平方因子,则k =2a ×3b ×5c ×7d ×11i ,其中a 10,b 5,c 2,d 1,i 1,且a,b,c,d,i 均为非负偶数,即a =0,2,4,6,8,10,b =0,2,4,c =0,2,d =i =0,此时k 有6×3×2=36种选择.从而所求概率为36792=122.故m +n =23,(E)正确.16.A point is chosen at random within the square in the co-ordinate plane whose vertices are (0,0),(2020,0),(2020,2020),and (0,2020).The probability that the point lies within d unitsof a lattice point is 12.(A point (x,y )is a lattice point if x and yare both integers.)What is d to the nearest tenth?A.0.3B.0.4C.0.5D.0.6E.0.7译文坐标平面上有一个以(0,0),(2020,0),(2020,2020)和(0,2020)为顶点的正方形.在正方形内随机选择一个点,该点位于格点的d 个单位内的概率是12.(点(x,y )称为格点,若x 和y 均为整数.)图3则d 精确到十分位是多少?解如图示,以格点为圆心,d 为半径作一些圆,则正方形内的圆内部分就是符合条件的点集.因此,该点落在此区域的概率为P =该区域的面积正方形面积,即12=(20192+2019×2+1)πd 220202=πd 2,求得d =√12π≈0.4,故(B)正确.17.Define P (x )=(x −12)(x −22)···(x −1002).How many integers n are there such that P

such quadruples is it true that ad −bc is odd?(For ex-ample,(0,3,1,1)is one such quadruple,because 0·1−3·1=−3is odd.)A.48B.64C.96D.128E.192译文设(a,b,c,d)是一个四元数,其中a,b,c,d∈{0,1,2,3}且可以相同.则有多少个这样的四元数使得ad−bc是奇数?(例如,(0,3,1,1)就是一个符合条件的四元数,因为0·1−3·1=−3是奇数.)解要使得ad−bc是奇数,ad和bc必一奇一偶,分两种情况:(1)ad是奇数,bc是偶数:此时a,d∈{1,3},b,c可以是一奇一偶、一偶一奇、两个偶数,共有2×2×(2×2×3)=48种选择;(2)ad是偶数,bc是奇数:同理可得48种选择.故共有96个,(C)正确.19.As

transformations)of the plane:rotation of 90◦,180◦,and 270◦counterclockwise around the origin,reflection across the x -axis,and reflection across the y -axis.How many of the 125sequences of three of these transformations (not necessarily dis-tinct)will return T to its original position?(For example,a 180◦rotation,followed by a reflection across the x -axis,followed bya reflection across the y -axis will return T to its original position,but a 90◦rotation,followed by a reflection across the x -axis,fol-lowed by another reflection across the x -axis will not return T to its original position.)A.12B.15C.17D.20E.25译文设T 是坐标平面上以(0,0),(4,0)和(0,3)为顶点的三角形.考虑以下五种平面上的等距变换(刚体变换):绕原点作90◦,180◦和270◦的逆时针旋转,关于x 轴或y 轴的反射.任选三种变换(不必不同)可以组成125种组合,有图7多少种组合将使得T 变回起始位置?(例如,一个关于y 轴的反射,接着一个关于x 轴的反射,再接着一个180◦的旋转,将会使得T 变回起始位置;但一个关于x 轴的反射,接着另一个关于x 轴的反射,再接着一个90◦的旋转,将不会使得T 变回起始位置.)解分两种情况:(1)全部由旋转组成:只要三次旋转的角度和为360◦或720◦即可满足要求,因此有90◦+90◦+180◦,90◦+180◦+90◦,180◦+90◦+90◦,270◦+270◦+180◦,270◦+180◦+270◦,180◦+270◦+270◦共6种组合;(2)由旋转和反射组合而成:有y 轴+x 轴+180◦,y 轴+180◦+x 轴,180◦+x 轴+y 轴,180◦+y 轴+x 轴,x 轴+180◦+y 轴,x 轴+y 轴+180◦,也是6种组合.故(A)正确.24.Let n be the least positive integer greater than 1000for which gcd (63,n +120)=21and gcd (n +63,120)=60.What is the sum of digits of n

=1077,1497,1917,···.当n =1077时,gcd (63,n +120)=63,不符;当n =1497时,gcd (n +63,120)=120,也不符;当n =1917时,验证后符合条件,此时数字和为18,故(C)正确.例谈伸缩变换在解高考题中的应用广东省佛山市高明区教师发展中心(528500)张文玲一、定义引出在高中数学选修4-4第一讲中,有如下定义:设点P (x,y )是平面直角坐标系中的任意一点,在变换φ: x ′=λx (λ>0)y ′=µy (µ>0)的作用下,点P (x,y )对应到点P ′(x ′,y ′),称φ为平面直角坐标系中的坐标伸缩变换,简称伸缩变换.在它的作用下,可以实现平面图形的伸缩.对于椭圆x 2a 2+y 2b 2=1(a >b >0),在变换φ:x ′=xy ′=my(简言之,横坐标不变,纵坐标拉伸,m 称为伸缩率)的作用下,变为圆x ′2+y ′2=a 2,其中m =ab[1].在此变换下,原来直角坐标系xOy 中的点A (x 1,y 1),B (x 2,y 2),C (x 3,y 3)对应变为直角坐标系x ′O ′y ′中的点A ′(x 1′,y 1′),B ′(x 2′,y 2′),C ′(x 3′,y 3′),且有如下结论:1⃝若点A,B,C 三点共线,则点A ′,B ′,C ′三点也共线[1].2⃝若A,B,C 三点共线且|AB |=λ|BC |(λ>0),则变换之后|A ′B ′|=λ|B ′C ′|(λ>0).故若点B 为线段AC 的中点,则点B ′为线段A ′C ′的中点[1].3⃝若直线AB 的斜率为k ,则直线A ′B ′的斜率为mk [1].故两条平行直线经变换后仍然平行.4⃝两封闭图形的面积之比在变换前后不变.在圆中有很多优美的性质,将椭圆伸缩变换为圆之后,就可以利用圆的性质来解决一些问题,简化了计算,使学生不再“望椭圆而生畏”.下面从圆的四个常见性质出发来解决一些涉及到椭圆的高考题目.二、应用举例(一)直径所对的圆周角是直角例1(2019年高考全国Ⅱ卷理科第21题)已知点A (−2,0),B (2,0),动点M (x,y )满足直线AM 与BM 的斜率之积为−12.记M 的轨迹为曲线C .25.Jason rolls three fair standard six-sided dice.Then he looks at the rolls and chooses a subset of the dice (possibly emp-ty,possibly all three dice)to reroll.After rerolling,he wins if and only if the sum of the numbers faces up on the three dice is exactly 7.Jason always plays to optimize his chances of winning.What is the probability that he chooses to reroll exactly two of the dice?A.736B.524C.29D.1772E.14译文詹森掷3颗标准、均匀的骰子,他看了结果之后会选择若干(可能是0,也可能是3)颗重掷.当3颗骰子正面朝上的数字和为7点的时候,他就赢了.詹森总是按照朝着他赢的最优策略去掷.问他刚好选择2颗骰子重掷的概率是多少?解掷1颗骰子得1,2,3,4,5,6点的概率均为16;掷2颗骰子得3点只有两种情况:12和21,概率为236,···;掷3颗骰子得7点有15种情况:115,151,511,124,142,214,241,412,421,133,313,331,223,232,322,概率为15216,···.经过计算,所有结果如下表所示:分类/概率/结果1234567掷1颗161616161616掷2颗136236336436536掷3颗1216321632161021615216因此,詹森要选择2颗骰子重掷,则上次掷的结果中,任意两颗骰子的数字和不能小于7点,否则他将选择重掷1颗骰子;且不能3颗骰子都是4点或者以上,要不然他将选择重掷3颗骰子.根据以上分析,满足条件的情况有:(1)掷出1点、6点、6点,3种情况;(2)掷出2点、5点、5点,3种情况;(3)掷出2点、5点、6点,6种情况;(4)掷出2点、6点、6点,3种情况;(5)掷出3点、4点、4点,3种情况;(6)掷出3点、4点、5点,6种情况;(7)掷出3点、4点、6点,6种情况;(8)掷出3点、5点、5点,3种情况;(9)掷出3点、5点、6点,6种情况;(10)掷出3点、6点、6点,3种情况.由加法原理,共42种情况,故所求概率为42216=736,(A)正确.。
