Dear Chris,
I’m delighted to receive your email and know that you have decided to overcome the addiction to computer games.
Inspired by your plan, I' m determined to get rid of my bad habit of staying up late. Without enough sleep, I can't concentrate in class. As a result, I do poorly in most of my subjects and it's hard for me to keep up with my classmates, which make me frustrated and depressed. What makes it worse is that insufficient sleep has affected my health.
I intend to develop a sleeping habit of going to bed before 11 pm every day. It will be of great benefit to my future study and health.
Let's try our best to improve ourselves together!
Yours,
Li Jin2022-2023学年高三年级第二学期开学摸底测试

A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, D.C. Standing outside the
Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, “Can you help me ” When I turned around, I saw
an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reflex, I reached into my pocket,
pulled out all of my loose change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her. I was
annoyed at being bothered by a beggar. But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want
your money. I just need help finding the post office.”
In a moment, I realized what I had done. I judged another person simply for what I
assumed she had to be. I hated what I saw in myself. This incident re- awakened my belief in
humility (谦恭), even though I’d lost it for a moment.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and
arrived in the U.S. at the age of 15. I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and
sister, and a strong, serious-minded mother. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher,
mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs, and eventually I became
a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice (偏见). I remember a time,
at age 17 — I worked as a waiter, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do
well in school, he would end up like me. I have also witnessed the same treatment of my family
and friends, so I know what it’s like, and I should have known better.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to
forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That
blind woman on the streets of Washington, D.C., cured me of my blindness. She reminded me
of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open. By the way, I helped that
lady to the post office. And in writing this essay, I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
56. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that _______.
A. the author was a native American.
B. the blind woman needed the money badly.
C. the author was as poor as the blind woman.
D. the author regretted his act of prejudice.
57. According to Paragraph 4, hearing the father’s words, the author was probably ___.
A. rather hurt B. very excited C. greatly inspired D. deeply moved
58. Which opinion does the author agree with
A. One should try to experience different kinds of life.
B. One should think about one’s past as often as possible.
C. One should treat others equally with love and respect.
高三英语科试卷 第 5 页 共 9 页
D. One should be nice to the elderly and the disabled.
59. Why does the author say he is thankful to the blind woman at the end of the passage
A. She has made him value what he has right now.
B. She has reminded him of the past experiences.
C. He has got a chance to think about his past and future because of her.
D. He has regained his belief in humility with her help.
60. What can be the best title for the passage
A. How my dream comes true
B. A priceless lesson in the street
C. A Belief that will never change
D. Learn from your past
C
From talking robots and video phones to rovers （探测器）on Mars, technology has
become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And
yet—we still have no cure for the common cold.
Why can't we stop the common cold According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh
Napier University in the UK, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold
viruses that are produced by the rhinoviruses（鼻病毒），Scientific American reported. There
are at least 160 types. They mutate so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs, or
learn to hide from our immune systems. In other words, a single cure isn't likely to work on
every type of cold.
However, researchers from Stanford University and the University of California, San
Francisco, have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein that the viruses need.
Without it, they can't spread inside your body.
To identify the gene which produces the specific protein needed by the viruses,
researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes in the human genome（基因组）one
by one for thousands of cell.
These modified cells were then exposed to a range of enteroviruses （肠道病毒），
including the rhinoviruses which cause the common cold.
All the viruses were unable to replicate inside cells without a gene that produces a specific
protein, called methyltransferase（甲基转移酶）SETD3.
Then, they tested genetically modified mice, which were completely unable to produce the
protein. The mice were able to live healthy, normal lives without the protein.
"Lacking that gene protected the mice completely from viral infection,” associate
professor Jan Carette, from Stanford, told the BBC.
"These mice would always die, but they survived and we saw a very strong reduction in
viral replication and very strong protection."
Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can temporarily suppress the protein, instead
of producing genetically modified humans.
“We have identified a fantastic target that all enteroviruses and rhinoviruses require and
depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no chance," said Carette.
"This is a really good first step—the second step is to have a chemical that mimics this
genetic deletion,” he added.
61. What does the underlined word "mutate” mean in English
A. To change a new form.
高三英语科试卷 第 6 页 共 9 页
B. To identify a new gene.
C. To check a modified cell.
D. To cure a viral infection.
62. What is the article mainly about
A. Why it is so hard to cure the common cold.
B. The possible link between rhinoviruses and the common cold.
C. A possible way to stop viral infections that cause the common cold.
D. The functions of a protein needed by viruses.
63. What can we learn about the protein needed by the viruses
A. It helps the viruses replicate inside our bodies.
B. It allows the viruses to change easily.
C. It helps the viruses become resistant to drugs.
D. It increases the spread of the viruses.
64. What did the researchers discover in their gene-editing study
A. Genetically modified mice died because they lacked the protein.
B. The modified cells seemed to protect the mice against viral infections.
C. More methyltransferase SETD3 was produced after the cells were modified.
D.The gene-editing technique was more effective against enteroviruses than rhinoviruses.
65. What do the researchers plan to do next, according to Carette
A. Conduct experiments on genetically modified humans.
B. Identify a drug that can help reduce the protein.
C. Apply this gene-editing technique to control other viruses.
D. Find a chemical that can cure all enteroviruses and rhinoviruses.
D
These days, it's not unusual to see middle-aged men collecting Star Wars action figures,
office workers wearing Hello Kitty accessories, or celebrities like David Beckham playing with
Lego bricks. It's becoming more and more common to see adults taking an interest in toys,
comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This
phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.
What lies behind the phenomenon One is about adults' nostalgia （怀旧之情）for the
carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today's fast-paced, stressful
lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting
families later. As a result, they have more time and money to spend on themselves. Some
adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can
afford that radio-controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.
Businesses have been quick to exploit the kidult trend, and the number of toy stores that
target adults has risen. Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also
bringing out new ones for adults. Lego, for example, has brought out an architectural series
featuring landmarks from around the world.
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests,
viewing the refusal as a sign of social immaturity and irresponsibility. Those who agree with
this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology concept known
as Peter Pan Syndrome, an anomaly （异常）that people remain emotionally at the level of
teenagers. On a grander scale, these kidult opponents （对手） argue that such delayed
adulthood causes couples to marry later and have fewer children. This in turn can lead to
高三英语科试卷 第 7 页 共 9 页
shrinking national economies, for there needs to be a generational replenishment （补充）of
the workforce.
From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless
fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative, and
their refusal to conform to society's acceptable tastes shows independent thinking. Besides,
they argue that being part of the social trend of delayed adulthood is not purely a personal
choice. The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for
employment and poor work opportunities.
Whether the kidult phenomenon will continue to grow or prove to be a passing trend is
anyone's guess. As the debate about it continues, remember that there is nothing wrong with
being young at heart.
66. What does the kidult phenomenon refer to
A. Adults act like children.
B. Adults have child-like tastes.
C. Adults go in for collecting toys.
D. Adults like playing with children.
67. Which of the following might cause the emergence of kidults
A. Different living conditions.
B. More choices about toys.
C. High pressure of modern life.
D. Good memories of childhood.
68. What does the underlined word “exploit” probably mean
A. Get used to. B. Look forward to.
C. Take advantage of. D. Make way for.
69. How does the text deal with the debate about kidults
A. By strongly opposing kidult opponents.
B. By convincing readers to accept kidults.
C. By refusing to take a stand on the issue.
D. By presenting both sides of the argument.
70. What can we infer about the author's attitude towards the phenomenon from the last
paragraph
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Disapproving. D. Uncaring.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal
with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches,
emotional problems and possibly cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger
openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other
people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing
anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's
高三英语科试卷 第 8 页 共 9 页
health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same
hormones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood,
etc．In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They
believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease,
and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high
blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to
admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause
is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry.
Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and
reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has
made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
71. What’s the author’s purpose by writing this passage (No more than 15 words)
72. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “repressing” in Paragraph 2 (No more than
