Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
[2021·山东省烟台市高三模拟]The Underwater Photographer of the Year, which originated from 1965, is a yearly contest based in the United Kingdom. As you might expect, the focus is on photos taken under water, whether in the ocean, in lakes or rivers, or even swimming pools.
The pictures are judged in several different categories. The contest in 2019 had over 5,500 entries from 70 different countries.
The grand prize winner was “Frozen Mobile Home” by French photographer Greg Lecoeur. The photo shows seals swimming around a small iceberg. To get the picture, Mr. Lecoeur traveled to Antarctica in a small boat and spent time tracking the life around floating icebergs.
The photo “Last Dawn, Last Gasp” by Pasquale Vassallo of Italy won the award for Ocean Protection Photographer of the Year. Mr. Vassallo said that he went diving early in the morning to take this picture of a tuna (金枪鱼) trapped as fishermen pulled their nets in.
Mr. Vassallo also took “Octopus Training”， a picture that won in the category of “Behavior”. He says that when he came up after a dive, he noticed a soccer ball floating on the surface. When he went to check it out, he saw that there was an octopus hanging from the ball. Mr. Vassallo says he doesn't understand what the octopus was doing, but wonders if it was training for the World Cup.
Though Rooman Luc of Belgium didn't win the “Portrait” category, his photo, titled “Angry Seahorse”， is quite striking. The close?up shot of a seahorse staring strictly into the camera was named runner up (second place). He said he spent nearly an hour standing in knee?high water being bitten by mosquitos in order to get the picture.
The contest has many more amazing photos that can be viewed on the site, along with the stories behind them. There is even a book with all of the contents that can be downloaded for free.
1．Which isn't suitable to enter the Underwater Photographer of the Year contest?
A．The crying dolphin.
B．Saving the elephant.
C．The dancing lemon shark.
D．Kissing the whale.
2．In which section of a website can we read the text?
A．Arts. B．Literature.
C．Documentary. D．Education.
3．What is the photo “Last Dawn, Last Gasp” aimed to tell us?
A．A tuna is hard to shoot.
B．We should protect ocean animals.
C．Diving early in the morning is painful.
D．There are too many fishing nets in the sea.
4．What can we learn from the photo of “Octopus Training”？
A．The Octopus is endangered.
B．Photo?taking should be serious.
C．The photographer has a sense of humor.
D．The photographer is concerned about the Octopus.
B
[2021·山东省烟台市高三模拟]If you've ever been on a fishing boat, you've probably seen crowds of birds following it, hoping to catch a snack. Now scientists use those birds' behavior to track illegal fishing boats.
Researchers attached data loggers to the backs of 169 albatrosses (信天翁) in Indian oceans. Weighing only 42 grams, the devices included a GPS, which enabled them to detect the presence and intensity of radar signals emitting from boats. That information was then sent by satellite, so the researchers could track the location of the birds—and thus the radar?emitting boats—in real time.
The scientists then cross?checked that data against the known locations of boats, collected from a system boats use to declare themselves, called the Automatic Identification System (AIS). And noticeable differences appeared frequently.
More than a third of the times the birds “loggers” detected radar signals, and therefore a boat, but no such boat appeared in the official log—meaning that the vehicles had likely switched off their AIS—something that probably happens in illegal fishing operations.
The work suggests birds could be an effective boat?monitoring tool as long as illegal fishing operations don't target the birds.
Fortunately, such_a_task would be difficult. Around fishing boats, you can find hundreds of birds at any one time that are flying around. And the birds with loggers are not marked in any way. So it's not really possible for fishermen to pick out a specific bird.
But what concerns researchers is that albatrosses often get caught by some fishing boats. Though regulations have been established to protect against that happening—with success—illegal boats don't necessarily obey. So scientists might be underestimating the risk posed to albatross populations.
5．What characteristic of albatrosses do scientists take advantage of in their research?
A．Their feeding patterns.
B．Their sense of direction.
C．Their greedy behaviors.
D．Their habit of following fishing boats.
6．For what purpose does a boat shut off its AIS?
A．To seek more fishes.
B．To have it mistaken for another.
C．To avoid being detected.
D．To save the trouble of declaring itself.
7．What does “such a task” in Paragraph 6 refer to?
A．Identifying birds with loggers.
B．Monitoring illegal boats.
C．Tracking radar signals automatically.
D. Fishing illegally.
8．What could be the best title for the text?
A．AIS: an Effective System to Locate Boats
B．Humans Are Good at Discovering Birds' Nature
C．Data Loggers Help Fishermen Get a Good Harvest
D．Scientists Use Birds to Track Illegal Fishing Operations

Water Skiing
[2021·山东省潍坊市高三模拟]Water skiing is an exciting water sport that can be a ton of fun. You will get to have a thrilling adventure every time you go out on the water. __1__ However, once you do, water skiing is a sport you can enjoy whenever you have a boat and enough flat water.
__2__ Every water skier needs water skis—these are different from snow skis and they also differ depending on the size of the skier and the experience level of the skier. Of course, no one can water ski alone, so you will need to find at least two people to go with you on your water skiing adventure. You and everyone you go with will have more fun if the friends you go with also want to water ski. __3__ After you have the boat, the people, and the skis, you will also need a water skiing cable and a life jacket.
For your first time water skiing, you may want to either take a lesson from an expert or find a friend that has experience and is willing to teach you. __4__ The observer rides in the boat, but watches the water skier for any signals and helps the driver know when to start and stop.
Once you get going and are able to water ski with ease, you will discover that there are many different types of water skiing. Most people just enjoy regular water skiing, but you may want to check out some of these more specialized types of water skiing.__5__
A．You need a boat, naturally.
B．It takes a little patience to learn.
C．The idea is to ski on the surface of the water.
D．Your ski tips should be pointing out of the water.
E．Before you start water skiing, there are a few supplies you'll need.
F．Of your two helpers you need one to drive the boat and one to observe.
G．In trick skiing, the water skier attempts gymnastic?like tricks while water skiing.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
1．B 细节理解题。 根据第一段中的 “As you might expect, the focus is on photos taken under water, whether in the ocean, in lakes or rivers, or even swimming pools.”可知，“拯救大象”这幅作品不适合参加年度水下摄影师大赛。故选B。
2．A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The Underwater Photographer of the Year, which originated from 1965, is a yearly contest based in the United Kingdom.”可知，本文的内容与摄影大赛有关，属于艺术。故选A。
3．B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的 “Mr. Vassallo said that he went diving early in the morning to take this picture of a tuna (金枪鱼) trapped as fishermen pulled their nets in.”可知，本作品展现的是人类对鱼类的捕捞行为，且这个作品获得的奖是“年度海洋保护摄影师奖”，因此照片“Last Dawn, Last Gasp”旨在提醒人们保护海洋动物。故选B。
4．C 推理判断题。根据第五段中的 “Mr. Vassallo says he doesn't understand what the octopus was doing, but wonders if it was training for the World Cup.”可知，Vassallo说他不知道章鱼在干什么，但他想知道章鱼是否在为世界杯训练。从这些话可以看出摄影师有幽默感。故选C。
5．D 细节理解题。根据文章首段可知，科学家利用信天翁追逐渔船的特点去定位渔船。故选D。
6．C 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“the vehicles had likely switched off their AIS—something that probably happens in illegal fishing operations.”可知，一些渔船非法从事捕捞活动时，为了不被检测到而关闭AIS系统。 故选C。
7．A 词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“as long as illegal fishing operations don't target the birds.”以及第六段的内容可知，画线部分指的是渔民识别并攻击信天翁，因为后文中提到跟着渔船的鸟太多，要从中找出某一只鸟并不容易。故选A。
8．D 主旨大意题。文章主要讲通过讲述科学家利用鸟类追逐渔船的天性，在鸟身上安装追踪器，追踪仪器探测不到的非法捕鱼的渔船，故选D。
Ⅱ.七选五
1．B 本段对滑水运动做了概括性介绍。空白前句表明滑水运动刺激好玩，空白后则用However表转折，引出了“一旦学会，就可尽情享受”。B选项“这学习起来需要一些耐心”与后句可以形成转折的逻辑关系，句意上也顺承得比较自然，符合文意。故选B项。
2．E 本段讲述滑水运动的准备工作。空白处位于段首，E选项“在开始滑水之前，有一些东西需要准备”涵盖了这一段落主题，适合作为段首句总领本段。故选E项。
3．A 本段讲述滑水运动的准备工作。空白前面已经提到了需要滑水板、需要他人陪同，从后句内容“you have the boat, the people, and the skis”来看，第三项准备工作应该就是船，A选项“自然，你需要一艘船”完美切合，符合文意。故选A项。
4．F 本段讲述首次滑水须知事项。空白前句指出“第一次滑水，可能你要么希望有专业人士指导，要么有玩过的朋友愿意教你”。F选项“对于你的两个助手来说，一个要驾驶船只，另一个要负责观察”可以与后句中的observer和driver对应起来，符合文意。故选F项。
5．G 本段讲述常规的滑水之外还有其他类型的滑水运动。空白前句表明“大多数人只玩过常规滑水，但是你可能也想了解那些更具特色的滑水类型”。G选项“在花式滑水中，滑水者会做出一些类似体操动作的花式动作”顺承前句句意，列举出了一种特色的滑水类型，符合文意。故选G项。

参考范文：
Dear Dylan,
I'm quite delighted you are interested in pandas because we Chinese regard them as our national pride.
In general, pandas mainly feed on bamboo and are protected by law due to the decrease in population. Moreover, they are so loved by foreign people that a few pandas have been given as gifts to strengthen the relationship with other countries. Up to now, their popularity has been rising dramatically around the world, attracting thousands of visitors to China every year.
Given the opportunity, I am more than happy to take you to the zoo to see them. Waiting for your reply.
Yours，
Li Hua

1．B 本段对滑水运动做了概括性介绍。空白前句表明滑水运动刺激好玩，空白后则用However表转折，引出了“一旦学会，就可尽情享受”。B选项“这学习起来需要一些耐心”与后句可以形成转折的逻辑关系，句意上也顺承得比较自然，符合文意。故选B项。
2．E 本段讲述滑水运动的准备工作。空白处位于段首，E选项“在开始滑水之前，有一些东西需要准备”涵盖了这一段落主题，适合作为段首句总领本段。故选E项。
3．A 本段讲述滑水运动的准备工作。空白前面已经提到了需要滑水板、需要他人陪同，从后句内容“you have the boat, the people, and the skis”来看，第三项准备工作应该就是船，A选项“自然，你需要一艘船”完美切合，符合文意。故选A项。
4．F 本段讲述首次滑水须知事项。空白前句指出“第一次滑水，可能你要么希望有专业人士指导，要么有玩过的朋友愿意教你”。F选项“对于你的两个助手来说，一个要驾驶船只，另一个要负责观察”可以与后句中的observer和driver对应起来，符合文意。故选F项。
5．G 本段讲述常规的滑水之外还有其他类型的滑水运动。空白前句表明“大多数人只玩过常规滑水，但是你可能也想了解那些更具特色的滑水类型”。G选项“在花式滑水中，滑水者会做出一些类似体操动作的花式动作”顺承前句句意，列举出了一种特色的滑水类型，符合文意。故选G项。
Ⅲ.应用文写作
参考范文：
Dear Dylan,
I'm quite delighted you are interested in pandas because we Chinese regard them as our national pride.
In general, pandas mainly feed on bamboo and are protected by law due to the decrease in population. Moreover, they are so loved by foreign people that a few pandas have been given as gifts to strengthen the relationship with other countries. Up to now, their popularity has been rising dramatically around the world, attracting thousands of visitors to China every year.
Given the opportunity, I am more than happy to take you to the zoo to see them. Waiting for your reply.
Yours，
Li Hua
