Ⅰ.阅读理解
[2021·临沂模拟]The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed?breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving，and eventually make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers，” India's transport minister Nitin Gadkari tweeted.
The visual illusions (幻象) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high?speed vehicles.
India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526 for 2014.
The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.
In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is “to increase the attention of drivers”， and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.
However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.
1．According to the passage, 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers in India aims to ______.
A．replace all speed breakers from highways
B．encourage essential requirements of speed breakers
C．check speeding and careless driving on all highways
D．remind drivers to speed down voluntarily for road safety
2．What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India?
A．Speeding motorists.
B．Floating 3D crossings.
C．Free use of visual illusions.
D．Bad application of traffic laws.
3．The author explains the experiment of 3D zebra crossings in India by ______.
A．giving examples B．analysing causes
C．providing figures D．making comparisons
4．What's the author's attitude towards 3D zebra crossings?
A．Subjective. B．Objective.
C．Supportive. D．Critical.

[2021·济南模拟]Risha loved school. However, there was one class Risha worried about more than any other—art. She didn't know why she just wasn't any good at drawing, painting, or cutting.
Ms. Clay, the art teacher, stood at the front of the room. “Class, next Friday our school is going to have an art competition，” she announced. Ms. Clay was a great teacher, and Risha liked her a lot. But this announcement made Risha nervous. “Everyone in the school will create a piece of artwork to show in the library. You can use the different types of artwork we have been studying.” Ms. Clay was quite excited when she spoke while Risha found herself sinking lower in her chair.
Risha had the whole weekend to work on her project, but she could not think of anything to do. On Monday, Risha felt frightened, so after school Risha asked Ms. Clay if she could write an art paper instead of doing an art project.
“I understand this project scared you, Risha，” Ms. Clay said. “Just remember, you can creat any kind of art you want.” Ms. Clay smiled at her. “Art is a person's way of expressing his or her feelings—it isn't always painting, drawing, or cutting. I know you will think of something very creative, and I can't wait to see it.”
When Risha arrived home, she took out a piece of paper and a pencil. She remembered Ms. Clay's words. “Art is a person's way of expressing his or her feelings.” Risha wrote the word “terrified” on her paper. She crumpled the paper and threw it to the side of her desk.

3．A 推理判断题。根据第四段“The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.”可知，作者通过例子来解释3D斑马线的实验。故选A。
4．B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.(不过，也有人持反对意见，因为司机一旦熟悉这种3D斑马线带来的幻觉，他们就可能会直接忽略这些装置。还有人指出，印度政府的决定没有考虑到广大行人的安全。这种提高道路安全的新政策可能只是一时有效而已。)”可知，作者以客观的态度去认识3D斑马线。故选B。

Then Risha stared at the crumpled ball. It reminded her of a snowball. Suddenly an idea struck her. Why not create a winter wonderland out of crumpled paper? Risha didn't have to draw or paint or even cut. Risha made many paper balls, glued them all together, and placed them on a big piece of hard paper to form a snowman. The snowman wore a hat made of black paper and a scarf made of red paper. Her finished project was really wonderful.
On Friday, Risha carefully carried her project into the library. She noticed the smile and the nods from teachers and other students as she put her work on a table. Ms. Clay walked over to Risha.“You have created a creative piece of artwork. I am so proud of you！” Ms. Clay said. Risha was proud of herself too. Her pride grew when Ms. Clay placed a first?place star on her artwork. “Maybe I am a good artist after all，” Risha thought.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
1．D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed?breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving, and eventually make its deadly roads a little safer”可知，印度政府用3D图画作为主要路段的减速器目的是提醒司机自动地减速从而使公路更安全。故选D。
2．D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws.(根据世界卫生组织统计数据，道路安全法规的不规范实施每年导致20多万印度人死于交通肇事。)”可知，故选D。

4．B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India's decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.(不过，也有人持反对意见，因为司机一旦熟悉这种3D斑马线带来的幻觉，他们就可能会直接忽略这些装置。还有人指出，印度政府的决定没有考虑到广大行人的安全。这种提高道路安全的新政策可能只是一时有效而已。)”可知，作者以客观的态度去认识3D斑马线。故选B。

参考范文：
Then Risha stared at the crumpled ball. It reminded her of a snowball. Suddenly an idea struck her. Why not create a winter wonderland out of crumpled paper? Risha didn't have to draw or paint or even cut. Risha made many paper balls, glued them all together, and placed them on a big piece of hard paper to form a snowman. The snowman wore a hat made of black paper and a scarf made of red paper. Her finished project was really wonderful.
On Friday, Risha carefully carried her project into the library. She noticed the smile and the nods from teachers and other students as she put her work on a table. Ms. Clay walked over to Risha.“You have created a creative piece of artwork. I am so proud of you！” Ms. Clay said. Risha was proud of herself too. Her pride grew when Ms. Clay placed a first?place star on her artwork. “Maybe I am a good artist after all，” Risha thought.
