B
(2020·惠州市高三第一次调研考试试题)When
I
was
a
boy,
our
extended,
immigrant
family
would
sometimes
gather
at
my
aunt's
tiny
house
over
the
summer.
Relatives
from
all
over
the
country
would
come
to
visit.
The
adults
would
crowd
together
in
the
living
room
to
talk
and
catch
up
on
each
other's
lives.
And
the
kids
would
be
sent
out
into
the
front
yard
to
play
when
dinner
was
slowly
cooked
for
all
of
us.
Those
were
the
days
before
video
games,
smart
phones,
and
motorized
toys,
so
we
often
ended
up
playing
an
old
game.
I
remember
one
of
those
moments
especially.
As
I
was
the
youngest
and
smallest
of
all
the
kids
there,
I
got
caught
first
and
couldn't
catch
anyone
else.
My
brothers
and
cousins
were
all
too
fast
for
me,
and
I
grew
more
and
more
frustrated.
Finally
my
face
fell
first
into
the
dirt.
I
got
up
with
tears
forming
in
my
eyes.
Then
I
saw
one
of
my
female
cousins
Susan
standing
there.
She
started
to
run
but
was
going
much
slower
than
before.
I
easily
caught
up
and
seized
her.
Then
she
turned
to
me,
smiled,
and
said,
“I'm
it!
You'd
better
run!”
I
ran
off
laughing
with
glee
while
she
turned
and
started
to
chase
others.
Now
I
see
how
her
act
of
kindness
that
day
saved
me
from
sadness
and
made
my
joy
return.
It
didn't
matter
that
we
hardly
ever
saw
each
other.
I
know
we
are
family
and
she
loves
me.
In
her
wonderful
book
Box
of
Butterflies,
Roma
Downey
writes,
“We
are
all
one,
we
all
belong
to
each
other,
and
we
are
one
big,
beautiful
family.”
Perhaps
it
is
time
we
all
started
to
treat
each
other
that
way.
Perhaps
it
is
time
we
shared
our
love,
our
kindness,
our
laughter,
and
our
joy
with
everyone
without
fear.
Perhaps
it
is
time
to
finally
and
forever
bring
this
world
together
in
one
big
family
reunion.

games
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句中的“the
kids
would
be
sent
out
into
the
front
yard
to
play”以及第二段第一句“Those

game.”可知,当大人们聊天时,孩子们在前院里玩传统的游戏,故正确答案为D。
5.The

because
________.
A.the
others
ran
too
fast
B.the
author
was
good
at
running
C.Susan
gave
her
a
chance
D.Susan
wanted

答案:C 推理判断题。根据第二段的内容,尤其是“She
started
to
run
but
was
going
much
slower
than
before.
I
easily
caught
up
and
seized
her.”同时结合第三段第一句可推知,Susan看到作者哭了,出于善良,给了作者一个机会,让作者能够抓住她,故正确答案为C。
6.What
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage?
A.The
author
is
grateful

what
Susan
did
to
her.

world
will

A.A
memory
of
my
childhood
B.Sharing
of
goodness
unites
us
C.Kindness
brightens
our
life
D.A
good
deed
is
invaluable

C
(2020·广西南宁三中高三考试)Increasing
numbers
of
airports,
especially
in
Europe,
are
promoting
a
“silent
airport”
idea.
It
is
to
reduce
noise
pollution,
such
as
airport?wide
announcements,
without
sacrificing
timely
and
helpful
updates
of
information.
International
airports
were
once
characterized
by
their
high
voices,
competing
gate
announcements
and
so
on.
This
is
all
changing.
Angela
Gittens,
director
general
of
Airports
Council
International
(ACI),
says
there
is
a
growing
desire
among
airports
and
airlines
they
serve
to
create
a
calm,
relaxed
atmosphere
without
being
disturbed
by
announcements.
“Passengers
can
relax
while
they
wait
for
their
flight
to
board
in
the
common
airside
lounges
(休闲区),
and
food
and
drink
areas,”
she
says.
In
June,
Helsinki
Airport
in
Finland—a
country
where
the
tourism
slogan
(口号)
is
“silence,
please”—became
the
most
recent
airport
to
adopt
the
silent
concept.
As
part
of
its
commitment
to
quieting
things
down,
announcements
for
flights
are
made
only
in
boarding
gate
areas.
Lose
track
of
time
in
the
shops?
Too
bad.
Nobody's
going
to
call
you
to
your
flight,
as
announcements
in
all
terminals
will
be
made
only
in
exceptional
(特别的)
emergency
circumstances.
Heikki
Koski,
vice
president
of
Helsinki
Airport,
says
that
improved
flight
information
display
system
and
interactive
kiosks
(交互式自助服务机),
together
with
advances
in
mobile
technology,
are
changing
the
way
airports
communicate
with
passengers.
At
Munich
airport,
InfoGate
kiosks
allow
for
video?based
face?to?face
conversation
with
a
live
customer
service
representative
in
the
traveler's
language
of
choice.
Interactive
signs,
on
the
other
hand,
give
directions
at
the
touch
of
finger.
Passengers
can
tap
a
“you
are
here”
display
to
get
directions
and
approximate
walking
time
to
their
destinations.
Of
course,
an
airport
will
never
be
as
silent
as
a
temple.
There
will
continue
to
be
a
need
for
airport?wide
emergency
announcements
along
with
boarding
calls.
But
at
silent
airports,
the
latter
can
be
restricted
to
specific
gates,
as
has
adopted
in
Helsinki.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。越来越多的机场尤其是在欧洲,正推行一个安静空港理念。文章具体介绍了赫尔辛基机场的安静空港理念的推行情况。
8.What
is
Angela
Gittens'
opinion
on
the
silent
airport
concept?
A.It
makes
airport
noise?free.
B.It
is
intended
for
passengers'
benefit.
C.It
has
changed
international
airports'
reputation.
D.It
has
encouraged
the
catering
industry
in
airports.
答案:B 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Angela
Gittens,
director
general
of
Airports
Council
International
(ACI),
says
there
is
a
growing
desire
among
airports
and
airlines
they
serve
to
create
a
calm,
relaxed
atmosphere
without
being
disturbed
by
announcements.”可知,安静空港的理念会营造一种平静、轻松的氛围,她认为这对乘客有好处。故选B。
9.What
should
passengers
pay
close
attention
to
at
Helsinki
Airport?
A.Their
boarding
time.
B.Finland's
tourism
slogan.
C.The
shop's
opening
hours.
D.The
“you
are
here”
display.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第六段中“Nobody's
going
to
call
you
to
your
flight,
as
announcements
in
all
terminals
will
be
made
only
in
exceptional
(特别的)
emergency
circumstances.”可知,只有在非常紧急的情况下,所有航站楼才会发出通知,所以乘客应该注意他们的登机时间。故选A。
10.Why
is
Munich
Airport
mentioned
in
the
text?
A.To
show
its
popularity.
B.To
introduce
Infogate
kiosks.
C.To
prove
Heikki
Koski's
words.
D.To
be
compared
with
Helsinki
Airport.
答案:C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Passengers
can
tap
a
‘you
are
here’
display
to
get
directions
and
approximate
walking
times
to
their
destinations.”可知,提到Munich
Airport是为了证实本段第一句Heikki
Koski的话“改进的航班信息显示系统和交互式自助服务机,加上移动技术的进步,正在改变机场与乘客沟通的方式”。故选C。
11.What
is
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.Silence,
please.
This
is
an
airport
B.Can
airports
be
as
quiet
as
temples?
C.Silent
airports
all
around
the
world
D.Technology
helps
airports
become
interactive
答案:A 标题判断题。文章第一句“Increasing
numbers
of
airports,
especially
in
Europe,
are
promoting
a
‘silent
airport’
idea.”引出主题,呼吁机场推行silent
airport理念。故选A。

v.
减少,缩小 ②characterize
v.
是……的特征;以……为典型 ③commitment
n.

airport-wide
announcements,
without
sacrificing
timely
and

of
information.这是为了减少噪音污染,如机场范围内的公告,同时又不牺牲及时和有益的信息更新。(第一段第二句)

of

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了万塔度假村的特色水下客房。
1.beautiful 考查词性转换。句意:万塔度假村位于彭巴岛,是一家偏远而豪华的酒店,以其独特的水下客房而闻名,客人可以在舒适的床上欣赏印度洋美丽的海洋生物!修饰名词marine
life用形容词,故填beautiful。
2.is
held 考查动词的时态和语态。句意:这个非同寻常的房间漂浮在离海岸约250米的地方,由几条通向海底的锚索固定。The
unusual
room与hold之间是被动关系,且陈述的是客观事实,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,故填is
held。
3.the 考查冠词。句意:在海平面上,位于中间的甲板上设有休息、用餐以及浴室设施。in
the
middle
of表示“在……中间”,故填the。
4.Guests 考查名词。句意:客人也可以从梯子爬到顶层甲板上晒太阳或在晚上仰望星星。guest是可数名词,此处用复数表泛指,故填Guests。
5.in 考查介词。in
the
sun表示“在阳光下”,故填in。
6.which 考查非限定性定语从句。句意:当然,真正引人入胜的是底层的卧室,它位于水下4米处。先行词为bedroom,指物,关系词在非限定性定语从句中作主语,故填which。
7.to
lie 考查非谓语动词。句意:除了一张可以躺的双人床外,房间的每一面墙上还有两扇大窗户,几乎可以360度看到窗外的水域。被修饰的名词是lie
on的逻辑宾语,用不定式作后置定语修饰bed,故填to
lie。
8.giving 考查非谓语动词。the
room与give之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用现在分词作状语,故填giving。
9.probably 考查词性转换。句意:你可能也猜到了,入住这样一个酒店房间的花销并不便宜。修饰动词guess用副词,故填probably。
10.varies 考查动词的时态。句意:两个人在水下房间住一晚的费用是1,500美元,高于度假村的常规费用,这取决于一年中的入住时间和入住多久。陈述的是客观事实,用一般现在时,which指代主句内容,在从句中作主语,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,故填varies。

Ⅰ.阅读
(2020·辽宁省五校协作体高三上学期联合模拟考试)In
a
long-sleeved
shirt
and
jeans,
Dieudonne
Twahirwa
looks
nothing
like
the
traditional
African
farmer.
The
30-year-old
owner
of
Gashora
Farm
knows
what
a
difference
that
makes.
“You
need
more
role
models,”
he
said,
standing
among
knee-high
rows
of
chilli
(辣椒)
plants.
“If
you
have
young
farmers,
they
have
land
and
they
drive
to
the
farm,
others
may
think,
‘Why
can't
I
do
that?’”
Mr
Twahirwa,
a
university
graduate,
bought
a
friend's
tomato
farm
six
years
ago
for
$150.
He
made
$1,500
back
in
two
months.
“You
have
to
link
farming
with
entrepreneurship
and
real
numbers,”
he
said.
Many
young
Africans
are
abandoning
areas
in
the
countryside,
choosing
not
to
work
hard
and
for
a
long
time
in
the
fields—a
job
made
tougher
by
climate
change.
But
Twahirwa
is
one
of
the
growing
band
of
successful
farmers
working
to
make
agriculture's
image
on
the
continent
more
attractive.
Some
1,000
farmers
now
produce
chillies
for
him.
He
is
starting
a
fourth
farm
of
his
own,
and
exports
fresh
and
dried
chillies
and
oil
to
Britain,
the
United
States,
India,
and
Kenya.
Africa
has
the
world's
youngest
population
and
65
percent
of
its
uncultivated
arable
land
(耕地后备资源).
Yet
accessing
land
and
loans
is
difficult,
and
African
productivity
is
low
with
crop
yields
just
56
percent
of
the
international
average.
“Agriculture
is
mainly
associated
with
suffering
and
no
young
person
wants
to
suffer,”
said
Tamara
Kaunda.
She
believes
African
agriculture
needs
a
change
to
get
rid
of
its
old-fashioned
image
of
very
hard
and
tiring
work
with
a
hoe.
“Show
young
people
tractors,
green
fields,
nice
irrigation
systems
and
smartphones,”
she
said.
Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture
does
not
mean
they
have
to
work
on
a
farm.
For
example,
in
coffee
production,
the
beans
go
from
the
farm
to
the
washing
station,
then
to
be
separated
from
the
husks
(外壳).
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。非洲有世界上最年轻的人群与大量的耕地后备资源,但是由于气候与农业技术的落后,很多年轻人都不愿意从事农业。Dieudonne
Twahirwa则为非洲青年树立了榜样。
1.What
does
“Why
can't
I
do
that?”
in
Paragraph
2
mean?
A.Why
can't
I
drive
to
the
farm?
B.Why
can't
they
farm?
C.They
follow
the
example
of
those
farmers.
D.They
bought
a
friend's
tomato
farm.
答案:C 句意理解题。根据第二段中的“If
you
have
young
farmers,
they
have
land
and
they
drive
to
the
farm,
others
may
think,
‘Why
can't
I
do
that?’”可知,此处表示如果你有年轻的农民,他们有土地,而且开车去农场,其他人可能会想,为什么“我”不能那样做?该句意在表明其他人认为他们可以效仿这些农民的做法。故选C。
2.What
makes
it
harder
for
farmers
to
work?
A.Poor
land.
B.Climate.
C.Low
income.
D.Long
working
hours.
答案:B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“a
job
made
tougher
by
climate
change”可知,在非洲,让农民的劳动难度更大的原因在于气候变化。故选B。
3.What
can
we
learn
about
Twahirwa
according
to
Paragraph
5?
A.He
made
a
fortune
by
growing
chillies.
B.His
chillies
are
superb
in
the
world.
C.Farmers
working
for
him
live
a
simple
life.
D.The
locals
aren't
willing
to
buy
his
chillies.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Some
1,000
farmers
now
produce
chillies
for
him.
He
is
starting
a
fourth
farm
of
his
own”可推知,Twahirwa通过种植红辣椒赚了很多钱。故选A。
4.When
it
comes
to
agriculture
in
Africa,
what
do
people
think
about
it?
A.Loans
are
difficult.
B.Most
land
is
uncultivated.
C.Crop
yields
are
rather
low.
D.Farming
methods
are
out
of
date.
答案:D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“African
agriculture
needs
a
change
to
get
rid
of
its
old-fashioned
image
of
very
hard
and
tiring
work
with
a
hoe”可知,非洲农业需要改变,以摆脱其传统的形象:使用锄头的非常辛苦和累人的工作。由此可推知,当谈及非洲的农业时,人们想到的是落后的耕作方法。故选D。
【词汇积累】 ①productivity
n.
生产率;生产效率 ②yield
n.
产量;产出;利润 ③irrigation
n.
灌溉 ④get
rid
of
摆脱,除去
【难句分析】 原文:Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture
does
not
mean
they
have
to
work
on
a
farm.让年轻人参与农业并不意味着他们必须在田地工作。(最后一段第一句)
分析:本句为主从复合句。Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture是动名词短语作主语,mean后跟一个省略了that的宾语从句。

(2020·河南省八市重点高中联盟高三上期“领军考试”试题)When
we
talk
to
our
friends
online,
typing
can
become
a
little
boring.
We
turn
to
memes
(表情包)
to
make
our
conversations
more
fun.
__1__
At

10
students
who
were
admitted
to
Harvard
University
lost
their
chance
to
study
there
after
posting
offensive
(攻击性的)
memes
in
a
private
Facebook
group,
the
university's
student
newspaper,
the
Harvard
Crimson,
reported
on
June
5.
“Rather
than
just
regular
jokes,
the
memes
went
to
truly
dark
and
ugly
place,
joking
about
Orthodox
Jews
(犹太教徒),
the
gas
chambers
(毒气室),
Mexican
children
and
suicide,”
reported
CNN.
__2__
But
later,
some
students
set
up
another
group
where
they
traded
several
offensive
memes.
When
Harvard
University
found
out
about
the
group,
it
took
back
the
students'
offers.

“I
appreciate
humor,
but
there
are
so
many
topics
that
just
should
not
be
joked
about,”
incoming
freshman
Jessica
Zhang
told
the
Harvard
Crimson.
“I
do
not
know
how
those
offensive
images
could
be
defended.”
__4__
“It
sounds
like
Harvard
is
going
too
deeply
into
the
private
lives
of
students,”
Alan
Dershowitz,
a
retired
Harvard
Law
School
professor,
told
The
Guardian.
“It
may
affect
them
for
life.”
__5__
Last
year,
a
similar
Facebook
group
for
admitted
Harvard
students
drew
criticism
from
the
university
after
some
of
its
members
posted
racist
jokes.
A.The
incident
has
caused
fierce
debates,
both
in
the
university
and
around
the
world.
B.A
world?class
university
should
help
students
open
minds
and
overcome
bias
(偏见).
C.However,
others
believe
the
university
overstepped
the
boundaries.
D.The
group
was
originally
meant
for

Harvard
freshmen
to
get
to
know
each
other
before
they
began
university.
E.Jeff
Yang,
himself
a
graduate

the
university
was
right
to
punish
the
students.

sometimes,
sending
the
wrong

G.In

this

this.
篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一些学生在某个群体内发送具有攻击性的表情包,结果被哈佛大学拒绝入学的故事。
1.F 根据下文内容,哈佛大学开除了至少10人,因使用不合适的表情包,故可推知F项“可是有时候发错表情包也会产生麻烦。”适用此空,并可引起下文。
2.D 根据下文“But
later,
some
students
set
up
another
group
where
they
traded
several
offensive
memes.”可知有些学生另建一个群,发一些有攻击性质的表情包,所以可以推断出,一开始建立的校内群并非如此,故选D。
3.A
下一段内容是人们讨论学校做法的内容。故A项“这个问题在该校和全球范围内引起了激烈讨论”符合语境。
4.C C项中的“overstepped
the
boundaries”与Alan教授的话“deeply
into
the
private
lives
of
students”以及“affect
them
for
life”为同义表达。
5.G 设空后提到“去年哈佛大学也因为一些种族主义的问题批评了一些学生”,说明这不是哈佛大学第一次处理类似的事情。

(2020·山东省实验中学东校高三英语阶段性测试)I
encountered
God
the
summer
I
was
five.
My
father
had
finally
grown
too
sick
to
get
out
of
bed,
so
the
heat
and
nervous
tension
in
the
air
inside
the
house
made
it
impossible
to
breathe.
I
would
escape
by
squeezing
under
the
front
porch.
All
manner
of
creatures
lived
there,
but
I
mostly
ignored
them,
with
one
exception—a
little
frog
who,
every
time
I
crawled
(爬行)
under
the
porch,
stared
at
me
with
great,
golden
eyes.
In
late
June,
the
frog
finally
hopped
(跳跃)
toward
my
arm
and
stared
at
me,
demanding
eye
contact.
Once
he
had
my
attention,
he
opened
his
wide
mouth
and
said,
“Hello,
Sophie.”
I
should
have
been
shocked,
but
for
some
reason,
I
wasn't.
Perhaps
at
five
years
old,
I
was
more
receptive
to
something
against
the
laws
of
nature.
At
any
rate,
I
was
not
shocked
that
a
frog
could
speak.
I
had
a
more
pressing
question.
“How
do
you
know
my
name?”
The
frog
blinked
slowly.
“I
know
everything.
I
am
God.”
I
spoke,
“You
can't
be
God.
You're
too
small.”
He
extended
a
long,
webbed
finger
and
was
pointing
to
the
edge
of
the
porch's
shadow—to
the
spot
where
my
mother
had
tried
to
grow
flowers
there
for
years.
She
had
stopped
trying
when
my
father's
condition
worsened.
“Look
there,”
commanded
the
frog,
and
I
stared
as
a
beautiful
white
flower
blossomed
as
if
stretching
its
limbs
after
a
long
sleep.
In
my
five
years,
I
had
never
seen
anything
so
splendid.
God
and
I
became
good
friends
that
summer.
I
spent
every
day
under
the
porch,
talking
to
him.
Sometimes
I
asked
God
questions.
Sometimes
he
answered.
Once,
I
asked
him
where
Heaven
was.
“Heaven,”
he
said,
“is
where
I
live.”
In
August,
my
father's
illness
had
progressed
to
the
point
that
I
was
sent
to
my
aunt's
house
in
Virginia.
I
told
God
I
would
be
back
soon,
and
then
waited
in
Virginia
for
my
father
to
get
better.
Six
months
later,
I
came
back
home
for
my
father's
funeral.
Suddenly,

idea

Six

Death
is
very
confusing

I
didn't
understand
what
it
meant
to
die;
all
I
knew
was
that

had
been
lying
in

receiving
medical
treatment
for
his

when
I

and
now
when
I
came
back,
he

He
must
be

I
was
sure;
people
couldn't
just
disappear,
especially
without
saying
good-bye.
Though
my

told

no

I
sat
in

of
the
porch
all
afternoon,
calling
for
someone
to

me.
No
voice
came.
No

returned

No

(2020·山东师大附中高三第一次模拟考试)Emoji
might
not
be
your
first
choice
of
communication
in
a
disaster,
but
researchers
feel
they
could
make
a
difference
during
emergencies,
where
every
second
counts.
Now,
the
Emoji?quake
campaign
is
lobbying
for
an
earthquake
emoji
to
be
accepted
into
the
Unicode—the
standard
group
of
icons
(图标)
available
on
digital
devices
worldwide.
The
campaign
aims
to
find
an
earthquake?appropriate
design
to
be
admitted
to
Unicode.
“Approximately
up
to
one
third
of
the
world's
population
are
exposed
to
earthquakes,”
explains
University
of
Southampton
seismologist
(地震学家)
Dr
Stephen
Hicks,
a
founder
of
the
campaign.
“So
we
really
want
to
be
able
to
communicate
to
all
of
those
regions,
all
of
those
different
languages,
and
an
emoji
is
an
amazing
way
of
doing
that.”
Unlike
many
other
weather
and
climate
related
events,
where
longer
warning
times
or
visible
signs
are
available,
earthquakes
move
incredibly
quickly
and
are
difficult
to
measure
while
they
are
still
occurring.
Populations
in
areas
like
Japan
and
Mexico
are
dependent
on
earthquake
early
warning
technology,
which
issues
an
alert
on
digital
devices
and
broadcast
media.
“You
may
have
seconds
to
get
under
a
table
or
to
protect
yourself,”
explains
Dr
Hicks.
“That
can
be
life
saving
in
many
cases.
Naturally
you
don't
want
too
much
wording
in
the
warning
message.”
Pictographs
(象形文字)
and
other
visuals
like
emoji
have
a
track
record
of
being
faster
and
easier
to
understand
than
written
information.
Dr
Sara
McBride,
a
communications
specialist,
who
is
also
part
of
the
campaign,
told
BBC
News,
“Emoji
can
cross
the
boundaries
of
written
languages,
helping
communicate
valuable
information
to
people
who
may
struggle
to
read
a
certain
language.”
The
potential
usefulness
of
emoji
in
emergencies
could
extend
well
beyond
earthquakes.
A
team
of
designers
also
came
up
with
emerji—an
entire
set
of
emoji
for
climate
and
environmental
events.
篇章导读:本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了一场有助于挽救生命、以添加地震表情符号为目标的运动。

B.Emoji
is
being
used
to
convey
valuable
information.
C.Emoji
can
cross
the
boundaries
of
written
languages.
D.Emoji
is
a
universal
language
in
human
communication.
答案:C 推理判断题。根据Dr
Sara
Mc
Bride的话可知,表情符号可以跨越书面语言的界限,帮助那些可能难以阅读某种语言的人传达有价值的信息。故选C项。

may
be
the
relationship
between
emoji
and
emerji?
A.Emerji
is
a
part
of
emoji.
B.Emoji
is
included

(2020·安徽省全国示范高中名校联考)Eric
Davis
got
interested
in
firefighting
when
he
was
in
the
army.
And
while
much
of
his
job
today
is
related
to
EMS
(emergency
medical
services),
his
first
love
is
fighting
fires.
“I
enjoy
the
job
and
working
with
people.
I
enjoy
firefighting.”
he
says.
Davis
studied
in
a
firefighting
school
for
about
three
months
and
took
part
in
classroom
work,
physical
exercise,
and
hands-on
training
such
as
fighting
live
fires
in
buildings
filled
with
straw.
Davis
says
the
blindfold
(蒙眼的)
training
prepared
him
for
real
fires.
“By
the
time
we
get
to
a
fire,
if
it's
going
pretty
good,
the
whole
house
will
be
filled
with
smoke.
And
anytime
you
get
near
the
fire,
you
won't
be
able
to
see
at
all.
Zero
visibility
(能见性)
is
the
same
as
darkness.
The
blindfold
training
works.”
Davis
believes
his
most
important
duty
is
making
sure
he's
prepared
for
any
situation
he
might
come
across.
To
keep
physically
fit,
he
runs
several
times
a
week
and
works
out.
He
takes
classes
to
keep
up
his
skills
and
trains
regularly
by
fighting
practice
fires.
Sometimes
this
includes
cutting
holes
in
roofs,
which
helps
allow
smoke
to
pass
out
and
improves
visibility
for
firefighters
inside
the
building.
Firefighting
means
plenty
of
risks.
Besides,
Davis
says
“You
have
to
be
willing
to
help
any
person
you
come
across.”
If
someone
is
trapped,
Davis
or
another
firefighter
will
put
himself
at
risk
to
get
the
person
out.
Davis
says
he
is
not
afraid
when
he's
fighting
a
fire.
He
does
what's
needed.

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。几十年来,美国蜜蜂的数量一直在大幅度下降。一项新研究表明,某种杀虫剂可能令情况进一步恶化。
1.have
decreased/have
been
decreasing 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据句中的时间状语over
the
decades可知,该句应用现在完成式或现在完成进行时;由该句主语Honeybee
populations可知,主语为复数形式,谓语动词也应用复数形式,故填have
decreased或have
been
decreasing。
2.worse 考查形容词的比较级。上文提到几十年来,美国蜜蜂的数量一直在大幅度减少,此处表示某种杀虫剂可能会使情况变得更糟,故填worse。
3.an 考查冠词。play
a
role
in
...
意为“在……中起作用”,role是可数名词,其定语important的发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
4.why 考查连接词。分析句子结构可知,空处引导宾语从句,作know的宾语;又根据语境可知,此处表示科学家不能确定这一情况发生的原因,设空处在从句中作原因状语,故填why。
5.are
used 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,关系代词that指代先行词types
of
pesticides,在从句中作主语,为复数形式,故谓语动词用复数形式;此处描述的为客观情况,应用一般现在时,且use与主语是被动关系,故此处应用被动语态,故填are
used。
6.to
stick 考查非谓语动词。appear
to
do
sth.是固定用法,意为“似乎做某事”。此处表示这些杀虫剂似乎会在环境中滞留。
7.for 考查介词。根据语境并分析句子结构可知,此处表示对农民来说一项持续存在的挑战,故填for。
8.protecting 考查动名词。由空前的并列连词“while”可知,此处和“finding
ways
to
keep
other
insects
away”并列作宾语,故用protect的动名词形式protecting。
9.unlikely 考查词性转换。根据该句中的“but
there
are
a
number
of
organizations
trying
to
help
honeybees”可知,美国农业部表示,不太可能有一个神奇的解决方案,故填unlikely。
10.solution 考查词性转换。空前的magic是形容词,修饰名词,其前又有数词one,故此处应用名词单数形式solution。

between

and
what's

Air
pollution
has
been
linked
to
many
health
problems.
Most
earlier
studies
had
looked
at
how
tiny
air
pollutants
affected
rates
of
illness
or
death.
Joshua
Apte
is
an
environmental
scientist
at
the
University
of
Texas
at
Austin.
By
looking
at
life
expectancy
(预期寿命),
his
team
had
hoped
to
make
the
threat
easier
to
understand.
PM2.5
is
what
scientists
call
tiny
particles
(颗粒)
of
pollution
in
the
air.
Higher
levels
of
PM2.5
can
cause
health
problems
and
cut
months,
if
not
years,
from
the
average
length
of
life.
This
analysis
shows
how
pollution
affects
life
expectancy
in
different
parts
of
the
world.
The
World
Health
Organization
(WHO)
recommends
limiting
PM2.5
to
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter
of
air.
Apte's
group
calculated
how
holding
pollution
to
this
low
level
would
help
people.
In
countries
with
very
dirty
air,
meeting
this
standard
would
lengthen
people's
lives.
However,
in
countries
whose
air
already
meets
this
standard,
the
study
shows
no
gain
in
life
expectancy.
In
other
words,
meeting
the
WHO
standard
won't
reduce
health
costs
resulting
from
dirty
air
because
even
below
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter,
pollution
still
causes
serious
risks.
Meanwhile,
the
scientists
compared
how
other
threats
including
smoking
and

shorten
the

won't
reduce
health
costs
resulting
from
dirty
air
because
even
below

might
be
discussed
in
the
following
paragraphs?
A.How

by
country.
C.How
other
threats
shorten
life
expectancy.
D.How
all
the
countries
deal
with
severe

答案:C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Meanwhile,
the
scientists
compared
how
other
threats
including
smoking
and
cancer
shorten
the
length
of
life
across
the
globe.”可推知,接下来要讨论的是“吸烟和癌症等其他威胁如何缩短预期寿命。”故选C。

Ⅱ.完形填空
Recently,
I
flew
to
Las
Vegas
to
attend
a
meeting.
As
we
were
about
to
arrive,
the
pilot
announced
that
there
would
be
a

before
setting
down.
A

He
said
that
we

waiting

We
were
also
told
to
remain
in

with

because
there
might
be
a

(颠簸).
Well,
that

turned
into
about
forty?five
minutes,
including
a

that
would
make
a
roller

(过山车)
__5__
by

The
movement
was
so
fierce
that
several
passengers
felt
__6__
and
had
to
use
airsickness
bags.
As
you
might
guess,
that's
not
a
good
thing
to
experience
in
a(n)
__7__
space
because
it
only
__8__
to
increase
the
discomfort
of
the
situation.
About
twenty
minutes
into
the
adventure,
the
entire
airplane
became
very
__9__.
There
was
now
a
sense
of
anxiety
and
fear
that
could
be
__10__
noticed.
Every
passenger
simply
held
on
for
dear
life
...
except
one.
A
baby
was
having
a
good
time!
With
each
bump
of
the
__11__
he
would
let
out
a
giggle
(咯咯笑)
of
delight.
As
I
observed
this,
I
__12__
that
he
didn't
know
he
was
supposed
to
be
afraid
and
worried
about
his
safety.
He
neither
thought
about
the
past
nor
about
the
future.
Those
are
what
we

have
learned
from
__13__.
He
was
enjoying
the
ride
because
he
had
not

it.
Having
understood
this,
I
took
a

and
__14__
back

篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章记述了作者的一次经历。一次因开会去拉斯维加斯时,飞机因沙尘暴而延时降落,在不断延长的等待和飞机剧烈的颠簸中,成年人焦急、害怕,唯独不知恐惧的婴儿却在享受着过山车一样的颠簸。因此作者也深受启发,体验了一次孩子的享受。
1.A.mistake
B.delay
C.change
D.wind
答案:B 根据后文中的“sandstorm”可知因沙尘暴的缘故只剩下一条跑道让飞机降落,由此推断飞机应为延时降落,故答案选B。
2.A.forced
B.warned
C.swept
D.reminded
答案:A 根据上下文可知由于沙漠的大风机场不得不关闭了所有的飞机跑道,只剩下其中一个,force
sb.
to
do
sth.
“强迫某人做某事”,其他选项均不符合语境,故答案选A。
3.A.watching
B.visiting
C.circling
D.crossing
答案:C 由情理推断飞机在等待降落的过程中应该是绕城市上空盘旋。故答案选C。
4.A.arrive
B.enter
C.stop
D.land
答案:D 根据上文可知由于飞机跑道的关闭,作者乘坐的飞机必须在空中等待降落。故答案选D。
5.A.light
B.pale
C.dark
D.quick
答案:B 固定短语make
sb.
pale
by
comparison
“使……相形见绌”,此处用以强调飞机在空中极不稳定,比过山车还要惊险,故答案选B。
6.A.sick
B.nervous
C.angry
D.afraid
答案:A 根据后面的“use
airsickness
bags”可知几名乘客在猛烈的颠簸下感到恶心,难受,所以答案选A。句意:像过山车一样的巨烈颠簸使旅客恶心而不得不用呕吐袋。
7.A.empty
B.narrow
C.secret
D.open
答案:B 空前的that指的是use
airsickness
bags,也就是发生在飞机上狭小空间中的呕吐,因此选用narrow“狭窄的”,后面的space指的是座位处的空间。故答案选B。
8.A.serves
B.aims
C.fails
D.happens
答案:A 根据上下文可知在晕机的情形下本来就很难受,在飞机上呕吐使得这种难受更加强烈,此处serve意为“起……作用,用作……”,故答案选A。
9.A.quiet
B.hot
C.dirty
D.crowded
答案:A 根据下文对情形的描述“There
was
now
a
sense
of
anxiety
and
fear”可以推测当时人们都很紧张、焦虑,在这种情形下飞机上的人一定是静悄悄的,故答案选A。
10.A.partly
B.gradually
C.shortly
D.clearly
答案:D 由上下文的讲述可以推测在当时的情形下人们的焦躁不安,应该是能够很明显地被感觉到,而且“Every
passenger
simply
held
on
for
...
except
one.”也是重要提示,故答案选D。
11.A.seats
B.passengers
C.flight
D.airplane
答案:D 从上文可知作者主要讲述飞机在降落期间的颠簸让人们产生了焦躁感,由此推测应是飞机的每一次颠簸让孩子体验坐过山车一样的感受,因此孩子发出咯咯的笑声,故答案选D。
12.A.realized
B.hoped
C.agreed
D.insisted
答案:A 根据语境可知看到孩子的这种表现作者意识到在这种状况下孩子不知道他应该害怕和担心,其他选项不符合语境,故答案选A。
13.A.teachers
B.books
C.experience
D.theories
答案:C 由情理可知成年人都是从孩子时代过来的,他们亲身经历过不知道什么是害怕和担心的时期,故答案选C。
14.A.sat
B.lay
C.went
D.rode
答案:A sat
back
into
my
seat意为“坐回到座位上”,其他选项不合语境,故答案选A。
15.A.nearly
B.finally
C.really
D.suddenly
答案:C 由下文可知作者从孩子的表现意识到了对害怕的无畏无惧会让人享受每一刻,由此推测他在座位上坐好,假装真的坐上了过山车,准备和孩子一样也去享受坐过山车的快乐,其他选项均不合语境。故答案选C。

(2020·湖北省宜昌市部分示范高中教学协作体高三试题)It's
very
common

steep
considering
you
have
to
pay
both

So
what's
left?
Well,
if

__3__
Watch
as
many
of
these

make
sure
to
be
a

Finally,
keep

__4__
It

at
least
three
months
to
see
any
realistic

And
don't
be
overzealous
(过度热衷的)—never
work
in
pain—a
good
workout
is
difficult
and
challenging,
but
never
painful.
Pain
means
you
are
damaging
yourself.
If
nothing
else,
focus
on
calisthenics
(健身操).
__5__
Do
as

not
work
for
another.
(尽可能多看一些视频,但要以批判的眼光看待他们——每个人体型不同,适合这个人的不一定适合另一个人。)”可知E项(如今,社交媒体上充斥着健身视频和建议)引起下文,符合语境。
4.A 根据下文“It
takes
at

Ⅴ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
With
global
warming
and
melting
ice,
it
isn't
easy
being
a
polar
bear
anymore.
Some
studies
have
predicted
that
polar
bears
could
die
out
by
the
end
of
the
century.
The
good
news
is
not
all
researchers
think
the
bears
are
absolutely
disappearing.
Scientists
at
the
American
Museum
of
Natural
History
(AMNH)
have
published
a
new
paper
indicating
that
things
might
not
be
as
bad
for
polar
bears
as
some
scientists
expect.
To
understand
the
reason
for
the
researchers'
cautious
optimism,
we
must
first
understand
the
factors
that
are
threatening
the
polar
bear's
existence.
Polar
bears
consume
a
diet
of
mainly
young
seals.
In
order
to
hunt
these
seals,
polar
bears
need
to
rest
at
the
top
of
sea
ice—the
same
ice
that
is
increasingly
melting
for
most
of
the
year
thanks
to
climate
change.
In
another
50
years,
experts
expect
that
the
Arctic
will
be
too
warm
for
sea
ice
to
form
for
half
of
the
year,
leaving
polar
bears
without
a
reliable
food
source
and
in
serious
danger
of
starvation.
As
it
turns
out,
alternative
food
sources
for
the
polar
bears
aren't
completely
out
of
the
question.
For
as
long
as
biologists
have
tailed
after
the
animals,
they've
seen
polar
bears
eating
animals
found
on
land
like
caribou
(驯鹿)
and
snow
geese—as
well
as
the
snow
geese's
eggs.
Can
polar
bears
actually
survive
off
these
alternative
food
sources
for
long
periods
of
time?
To
figure
this
out,
researchers
calculated
the
nutrients
that
a
caribou
and
snow
geese
diet
would
provide.
They
found
that
even
adult
male
polar
bears
would
be
able
to
obtain
more
calories
than
they
would
burn
in
hunting
these
meals.
Moreover,
the
food
would
provide
the
food
necessary
to
avoid
starvation
during
the
summer
months.
Unfortunately,
not
all
polar
bears
have
tended
to
seek
food
on
land.
That
said,
the
researchers
expect
that
necessity
would
push
more
polar
bears
to
hunt
on
land
to
avoid
starvation.
They
also
expect
that
the
bears
could
learn
from
their
fellow
bears
how
to
hunt
on
land
until
the
practice
becomes
second
nature.

Great
Inventions
of
Ancient
China
课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读
A
(2019·吉林省长春外国语学校月考)When
it
comes
to
the
greatest
inventions
of
the
world,
China's
name
is
sure
to
be
mentioned
several
times.
There
are
hundreds
of
things
which
were
invented
by
the
Chinese.
Alcohol
Shocked?
I
was
because
when
they
said
alcohol
I
thought
about
either
the
US
or
the
UK.
China
had
never
crossed
my
mind.
In
China,
alcohol
was
made
by
two
legendary
persons
named
Yi
Di
and
Du
Kang
who
belonged
to
the
Xia
Dynasty.
This
period
was
about
2000
BC1600
BC.Research
says
that
in
ancient
China,
beer
with
4%
alcoholic
content
was
widely
consumed
by
people.
Tea
China
is
the
proud
inventor
of
tea
which
was
first
drunk
by
Shen
Nong,
a
Chinese
emperor
around
2737
BC.Tea
production
was
rapidly
developed,
making
tea
a
popular
drink
during
the
Tang
and
Song
Dynasties.
The
Mechanical
Clock
Have
you
ever
wondered
what
on
earth
we
would
be
doing
without
any
idea
of
time?
A
clock
really
is
an
invention
without
which
things
were
incomplete.
The
credit
of
making
the
first
mechanical
clock
goes
to
ancient
China.
The
first
mechanical
clock
was
invented
by
Yi
Xing
in
the
Tang
Dynasty.
This
was
during
618
and
907.
Silk
Fabric
Silk,
the
favorite
fabric
of
many
girls
out
there,
is
also
a
Chinese
invention.
Although
we
all
know
that
silk
is
made
by
silkworms,
it
was
Chinese
people
who
first
invented
a
way
to
harvest
the
silk
and
then
use
it
to
make
clothes.
The
oldest
silk
which
has
been
found
so
far
is
in
Henan
Province
and
dates
back
to
3630
BC.

B
(2020·广东省实验中学高三上学期第一次考试)Traditional
Chinese
Medicine
(TCM)
needs
to
prove
its
worth
through
rigorous
clinical
trials,
according
to
the
head
of
one
of
China's
largest
herbal
remedy
companies,
as
a
contentious
new
law
to
boost
the
$40bn
sector
comes
into
effect.
Traditional
Chinese
Medicine
is
estimated
by
analysts
to
account
for
a
third
of
sales
in
China's
$117bn
pharmaceutical
(药学)
market,
the
world's
second
largest.
But
most
of
those
sales
are
of
relatively
cheap
over?the?counter
drugs,
with
many
Chinese
hospital
doctors
unwilling
to
prescribe
TCM
remedies
because
of
the
lack
of
evidence
for
their
effectiveness.
China's
first
law
promising
equal
status
for
TCM
and
western
medicine
in
the
country's
state?dominated
healthcare
system
comes
into
effect
this
weekend.
Provisions
include
encouragement
for
hospitals
to
set
up
TCM
centres,
and
a
licensing
system
for
practitioners
(从业者).
“This
law
is
very
important
for
securing
the
status
of
TCM,”
said
Wu
Yiling,
chairman
of
Yiling
Pharmaceutical,
a
company
that
makes
herbal
remedies
based
on
traditional
recipes
in
the
northern
province
of
Hebei.
Listed
in
Shenzhen,
Wu
Yiling
has
a
market
capitalization
of
RMB
20.7bn
($3bn).
Mr
Wu,
the
son
of
a
herbal
practitioner,
controls
a
family
fortune
of
$1.6bn,
according
to
the
Hurun
Rich
List.
Mr
Wu
is
both
a
supporter
of
the
nature
of
Qi—the
mystical
energy
force
that
provides
the
basis
for
much
of
TCM
theory—and
the
clinical
trials
vital
to
western
pharmaceutical
companies.
“TCM
needs
to
develop
using
modern
research
methods,”
he
said.
For
instance,
researchers
from
Peking
and
Cardiff
Universities
tested
the
health
benefits
of
Yiling's
herbal
medicine
Yangzheng
Xiaoji,
publishing
papers
in
the
International
Journal
of
Oncology
that
showed
the
drug
can
slow
the
growth
of
cancer
tumours.
“The
theory
and
recipe
is
TCM,
but
in
practice
the
evaluation
of
our
medicines
is
carried
out
according
to
western
evidence?based
methods,”
Mr
Wu
said.
Analysts
say
such
tests
can
help
gain
support
from
doubtful
hospital
doctors
and
boost
prescriptions.
“Doctors
need
strong
evidence
that
drugs
definitely
work,”
said
Serena
Shao,
healthcare
analyst
at
brokerage
CLSA.“Some
of
these
companies
are
currently
doing
clinical
trials,
and
getting
proof
that
their
drugs
have
the
same
efficacy
(功效)
as
chemical
drugs.
That's
the
way
to
go.”
she
added.
The
TCM
law
has
been
greeted
with
doubt
from
China's
western?schooled
medical
establishment,
which
points
to
a
lack
of
rigorous
training
for
TCM
doctors,
and
a
recent
series
of
shocking
events
involving
herbal
injections
believed
to
have
been
harmful.
“Officials
will
try
and
encourage
TCM,
but
also
will
be
very
cautious
about
what
kinds
of
TCM
they
use
in
hospitals,”
added
Ms
Shao.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。中国最大草药公司之一的负责人表示,随着一项有争议的新法律生效,传统中医?TCM?需要通过严格的临床试验证明其价值。
4.Why
does
Traditional
Chinese
Medicine
need
to
prove
its
worth
through
rigorous
clinical
trials?
A.Because
Chinese
medicine
is
all
cheap
over?the?counter
drugs.
B.Because
Chinese
medicine
market
is
the
world's
second
largest
one.
C.Because
Chinese
government
wants
to
boost
the
law
of
Chinese
medicine.
D.Because
doctors
are
unwilling
to
prescribe
TCM
remedies
lacking
evidence
of
effectiveness.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But
most
of
those
sales
are
of
relatively
cheap
over?the?counter
drugs,
with
many
Chinese
hospital
doctors
unwilling
to
prescribe
TCM
remedies
(疗法)
because
of
the
lack
of
evidence
for
their
effectiveness.”可知,医生不愿意开中医疗法因为缺乏证据证明它们的有效性,所以中医需要通过严格的临床试验证明其价值。故选D。
5.Which
words
can
be
used
to
replace
the
underlined
word
“Provisions”
in
the
third
paragraph?
A.Articles
of
law.
B.Ways
of
supplying.
C.Methods
of
motivation.
D.Approaches
to
inspiring.
答案:A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“include
encouragement
for
hospitals
to
set
up
TCM
centres,
and
a
licensing
system
for
practitioners
(从业者).”可知,鼓励医院建立TCM中心,以及为从业者提供许可证制度,这些属于规定的具体内容,因此画线词指的是“法律条款”。故选A。
6.According
to
the
passage,
we
can
learn
that
Mr
Wu
Yiling
________.
A.is
a
herbal
practitioner,
controlling
a
family
fortune
B.has
a
company
in
Shenzhen
that
has
a
market
capitalization
of
$3bn
C.let
his
company
evaluate
herbal
medicines
with
western
evidence?based
methods
D.thinks
that
if
we
need
to
develop
TCM,
we
should
use
Chinese
traditional
research
methods
答案:C 细节理解题。根据第六段中的“The
theory
and
recipe
is
TCM,
but
in
practice
the
evaluation
of
our
medicines
is
carried
out
according
to
western
evidence?based
methods,”可知,武夷岭先生让他的公司用西方循证方法评估草药。故选C。
7.According
to
the
last
two
paragraphs,
we
infer
that
________.
A.western
doctors
deny
the
effectiveness
of
TCM
B.TCM
hasn't
been
recognized
in
the
western
medicine
C.there
is
a
lack
of
rigorous
training
for
TCM
doctors
D.a
recent
series
of
shocking
events
has
destroyed
Chinese
medicine
答案:B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The

C
(2020·湖北省龙泉中学、宜昌一中高三联考)Mary
Anning
was
an
English
fossil
collector,
dealer
and
paleontologist
(古生物学家).
Her
fossil-hunting
helped
change
the
way
people
thought
about
the
world.
Mary
was
born
into
a
poor
family
in
England
on
May
21,
1799.
She
lived
in
the
seaside
town
of
Lyme
Regis,
in
Dorset.
The
family
had
nine
children.
Only
Mary
and
her
brother
Joseph
grew
up.
Mary's
father
took
his
children
along
the
beach.
They
picked
up
shells
and
stones
to
sell
to
visitors.
Mary
did
not
go
to
school
much.
Her
family
was
too
poor.
And
schools
did
not
teach
children
about
fossils.
Mary
could
read
and
write.
She
taught
herself.
She
learned
about
rocks
and
how
bodies
are
made.
In
1811
when
Mary
and
Joseph
were
fossil
hunting,
Joseph
saw
a
bone
sticking
out
of
the
rock.
Mary
had
a
hammer
to
chip
away
at
the
rock.
Very
carefully
she
uncovered
it.
She
found
the
first
complete
fossil
of
the
ichthyosaur
(鱼龙).
Since
then,
Mary
became
crazy
about
fossil
hunting.
She
liked
to
hunt
on
the
beach
after
a
storm.
The
wind,
rain
and
waves
made
the
rocks
crumble.
It
was
easy
to
spot
fossils.
Most
days
Mary
went
fossil
hunting
with
her
dog,
Tray.
Rich
friends
helped
Mary
by
selling
fossils
for
her.
They
sent
her
money.
Scientists
wrote
letters
and
came
to
see
her.
One
good
friend
was
William
Buckland,
a
professor
at
Oxford
University.
Mary
also
opened
a
shop
to
sell
fossils,
stones
and
shells.
She
chatted
with
visitors.
Mary
Anning
died
in
1847.
How
evolution
(进化)
works
was
explained
by
Charles
Darwin
not
long
after
Mary
died.
Her
fossils
had
helped
scientists
understand
how
things
began.
篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了英国化石收藏家、商人和古生物学家玛丽·安宁的故事。
8.Why
did
Mary's
father
take
his
children
along
the
beach?
A.To
enjoy
life.
B.To
make
a
living.
C.To
look
for
fossils.
D.To
teach
them
about
fossils.
答案:B 推理判断题。由第二段中的“Mary
was
born
into
a
poor
family
in
England
on
May
21,
1799.”
“Mary's
father
took
his
children
along
the
beach.
They
picked
up
shells
and
stones
to
sell
to
visitors.”可知,1799年5月21日,玛丽出生于英国一个贫穷的家庭。玛丽的父亲经常带着他的孩子们沿着海滩走。他们捡贝壳和石头卖给游客。所以玛丽的父亲带孩子们去海边是为了谋生。故选B项。
9.What
can
we
learn
about
Mary?
A.Her
father
was
a
paleontologist.
B.Her
father
educated
her
at
home.
C.She
had
nine
brothers
and
sisters
in
all.
D.She
might
be
popular
at
that
time.
答案:D 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“
Scientists
wrote
letters
and
came
to
see
her.”
“Mary
also
opened
a
shop
to
sell
fossils,
stones
and
shells.
She
chatted
with
visitors.”可知,科学家写信并来拜访她。玛丽还开了一家商店出售化石、石头和贝壳且与到访的游客聊一些关于化石的信息。所以通过关键词“
Scientists
wrote
letters
and
came
to
see
her.”
“She
chatted
with
visitors.”可以判断出,在那个时候她很有名,很受欢迎。故选D项。
10.Who
was
the
first
one
to
catch
sight
of
the
rock
containing
the
first
complete
ichthyosaur
fossil?
A.Charles
Darwin.
B.Mary's
dog.
C.Mary.
D.Joseph.
答案:D 细节理解题。由第三段中的“In
1811
when
Mary
and
Joseph
were
fossil
hunting,
Joseph
saw
a
bone
sticking
out
of
the
rock.”可知,1811年,当玛丽和约瑟夫在寻找化石时,约瑟夫看到一根骨头从岩石中伸出来了。所以约瑟夫是第一个看到含有第一个完整鱼龙化石的人。故选D项。
11.What
does
the
underlined
word
“crumble”
in
the
fourth
paragraph
means?
A.Break.
B.Shake.
C.Float.
D.Dive.
答案:A 词义猜测题。由第四段中的“She
liked
to
hunt
on
the
beach
after
a
storm.
The
wind,
rain
and
waves
made
the
rocks
crumble.
It
was
easy
to
spot
fossils.”可知,暴风雨过后她喜欢在海滩上寻找化石。风、雨、浪使岩石变得碎裂,很容易发现化石。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出第四段加下划线的“crumble”是break“破裂”的意思。故选A项。

Ⅰ.阅读
(2020·深圳高级中学(集团)高三第一学期第一次测试)We
love
the
sea.
We
swim
into
it,
live
near
it,
build
beside
it,
and
even
imagine
about
living
under
the
sea.
But
we're
terrified
of
it,
too.
For
much
of
our
history,
we
have
turned
to
“hard
engineering”
to
control
the
marine
(海洋)
environment
and
manage
its
influence
on
us.
We
build
dams,
sea
walls
and
channels.
But
all
these
efforts
seem
to
fail.
The
sea
has
a
habit
of
taking
back
its
own.
And
we
suffer.
Johnston,
a
marine
ecologist,
is
advocating
for
“blue
engineering”—the
marine
version
of
the
“green
engineering”
movement
on
land
that
has
seen
nations
like
Singapore
building
the
walls
and
roofs
of
the
concrete
jungle
with
plant
life.
We
are
expanding
further
into
the
marine
environment.
This
practice
does
harm
to
marine
ecosystems.
We're
loving
the
sea
to
death,
but
we've
not
been
thinking
about
design
of
structures
(建筑物)
with
respect
to
ecology.
Some
coastal
structures
create
shade,
which
reduces
the
growth
of
seaweed.
Bright
lights
at
night
contuse
species
such
as
turtles.
That's
why
blue
engineering
comes
in.
Throughout
the
world
people
are
starting
to
turn
things
around.
Researchers
with
the
World
Harbour
Project
are
creating
tiles
(瓦片)
similar
to
the
natural
structures
found
on
rocky
shores
with
3D
printing
technology.
These
make
more
attractive
homes
for
marine
creatures.
Researchers
are
also
actively
seeding
these
tiles
with
local
seaweeds
and
creatures
such
as
the
Sydney
rock
oyster,
which
is
particularly
good
at
improving
water
quality.
Twelve
harbours
around
the
world
are
taking
part
in
this
marine
tile
experiment,
each
working
with
their
own
unique
marine
life.
It's
a
far
cry
from
the
days
when
huge
numbers
of
old
tyres
were
thrown
into
the
sea
to
build
“artificial
reef
(礁石)”.
Those
clumsy
early
attempts
are
now
costing
millions
to
remove,
showing
just
how
far
we
have
yet
to
go
in
understanding
how
best
to
co?habit
with
the
underwater
world.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了引进蓝色海洋工程的原因以及如何实施蓝色海洋工程。
1.What
do
we
know
about
“hard
engineering”?

sea
environment.
B.It
can
control
the
influence
of
sea.
C.It
has
failed
to
achieve
its
purpose.

Ⅲ.七选五
(2020·吉林省梅河口市高三上学期联考)The
history
of
writing
instruments,
with
which
humans
have
recorded
and
conveyed
thoughts
and
feelings,
is
the
history
of
civilization
itself.
This
is
how
we
know
about
our
ancestors
and
their
life.
The
handy
sharpened?stone
was
adapted
into
the
first
writing
instrument.
Around
24000
BC,
the
cave
man
started
drawing
pictures
with
the
stone
onto
the
walls
of
his
cave.
__1__
Walls
at
the
Apollo
site
in
Namibia
are
believed
to
be
the
oldest
rock
paintings
to
date.
Before
paper
came
along,
people
used
clay
or
wax
tablets
on
which
they
wrote
with
sharp
objects
such
as
metal
sticks
or
bones.
Around
6,000
years
ago,
the
Egyptians
invented
the
first
paperlike
material
called
papyrus.
The
word
“paper”
actually
comes
from
the
word
“papyrus”.
__2__
Bones
or
metal
sticks
were
no
longer
useful
as
the
papyrus
could
not
be
scratched.
So
the
Egyptians
created
a
reed?pen
perfect
for
the
papyrus.
__3__
And
thus,
ancient
Egyptians
transformed
bamboo
stems
(茎)
into
an
early
form
of
a
fountain
pen.
Another
writing
instrument
that
remained
active
in
history
for
a
long
period
was
the
quill
(鹅毛)
pen.
Introduced
around
700
AD,
the
quill
was
a
pen
made
from
a
bird
feather.
Goose
feathers
were
most
common.
__4__
For
making
fine
line
drawings,
crow
feathers
were
the
best.
When
writers
had
better
inks
and
paper
and
handwriting
had
developed
into
both
an
art
form
and
an
everyday
occurrence,
man's
inventive
nature
once
again
turned
to
improving
the
writing
instrument.
__5__
A.Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.
B.The
papyrus
became
the
most
popular
material
at
that
time.
C.Swan
feathers
were
of
a
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.
D.Bamboo
stems
were
better
and
much
more
expensive
than
goose
feathers.
E.This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modem
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.
F.These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.
G.These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.
1.G 上文提示“大约公元前24000年,穴居人开始用石头在洞穴的墙上画画。”再根据下文提示“纳米比亚阿波罗遗址的墙壁被认为是迄今为止最古老的岩画。”因此,G项“These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.”(这些图画展示了日常生活中的事件,如种植庄稼或打猎的胜利。)承上起下,切题。故选G。
2.A 下文提示“由于纸莎草纸不能被刮伤,骨头或金属棒不再有用。”因此,A项“Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.”(现在需要能在纸莎草纸上书写的工具。)引起下文,切题。故选A。
3.F 上文提示“因此,埃及人创造了一种芦苇笔,完美地用于纸莎草纸。”因此,F项“These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.”(这些主要是草的茎,尤其是竹子的茎。)承接上文,切题。故选F。
4.C 上文提示“最常见的是鹅毛。”因此,C项“Swan
feathers
were
of
a
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.”(天鹅羽毛质量很好,既稀有又昂贵。)承接上文,切题。故选C。
5.E 上文提示“当作家们有了更好的墨水和纸张,并且书法已经发展成为一种艺术形式和日常生活的一部分时,人类的创造性再一次转向改进书写工具。”因此,E项“This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modem
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.”(这导致了现代钢笔在19世纪的发展。)承接上文,切题。故选E。

Dear
Sir
or
Madam,
My
name
is
Li
Hua.
As
an
exchange
student
from
China,
I
am
studying

Museum
and
quite
familiar
with
Chinese
relics.
Furthermore,
being
an
outgoing
and
optimistic

I
am
good
at
communicating
with
others
and
introducing
Chinese
culture
to
the
world
is
always
my
honor
and
my
pleasure.
Finally,
there
is
no
problem
with
my
spoken
English,
as
I
have
lived
here
for
almost
a
year
and
I
have
no
difficulty
communicating
with
others
in
English.
I
would
really
appreciate
it
if
you
can
offer
me
the
chance
to
be
a

in
your
museum.
I
am
looking

Is
It
Safe
to
Stand
in
Front
of
Microwave
Ovens?
Microwave
ovens
have
been
a
kitchen
staple
for
decades,
allowing
you
to
cook
everything
from
frozen
vegetables
to
packaged
meals
in
minutes.
But
while
you
zap
your
food,
you
may
wonder
how
close
you
can
safely
stand
next
to
a
microwave,
and
whether
any
radiation
could
escape
from
the
device
and
potentially
harm
you.
Do
you
really
need
to
worry
about
this?
The
short
answer
is,
not
really.
Injuries
from
microwave
radiation
are
very
rare,
according
to
the
US
Food
and
Drug
Administration.
However,
there
are
certain
precautions
you
can
take
to
keep
yourself
safe
when
using
a
microwave
oven.
Even
though
microwaves
don't
pose
the
same
health
risks
as
X-rays,
that
doesn't
mean
they
are
risk-free.
Microwaves
heat
food
by
causing
water
molecules
to
vibrate,
which
produces
heat.
In
theory,
microwaves
can
heat
body
tissues
in
the
same
way
they
heat
food,
and
at
high
levels,
microwaves
can
cause
burns
and
cataracts,
according
to
the
FDA.
But
these
types
of
injuries
are
very
rare
and
have
generally
occurred
when
people
are
exposed
to
large
amounts
of
radiation
leaking
through
openings
in
the
oven,
such
as
gaps
in
the
seal,
the
FDA
says.
Still,
the
agency
recommends
that
you
check
your
microwave
oven
carefully
and
do
not
use
it
if
the
door
doesn't
close
properly,
or
if
it
is
“bent,
warped,
or
otherwise
damaged.”
As
an
added
precaution,
the
FDA
recommends
that
you
don't
lean
or
stand
directly
against
a
microwave
oven
for
long
periods
while
it's
operating.
As
far
as
injuries
from
microwave
ovens
go,
the
most
common
way
people
are
injured
is
via
heat?related
burns
from
touching
hot
containers
or
overheated
foods,
or
being
exposed
to
exploding
liquids.
The
FDA
recommends
that
people
use
common-sense
precautions
when
handling
hot
foods
and
beverages
cooked
in
microwave
ovens.
The
agency
also
warns
that,
when
you
use
a
microwave
to
heat
water
in
a
cup,
there's
a
risk
of
the
water
becoming
“superheated,”
This
can
lead
to
skin
burns
or
scalding
injuries,
particularly
on
the
face
and
hands.

of

which
means
it
has
heated
past
its
boiling
point.
When
this
happens,
the
water
does
not
appear
to
be
boiling,
but
just
a
slight
disturbance
to
the
water,
which
can
occur
when
touching
or
picking
up
the
cup,
can
cause
an
eruption
of
boiling
water.
Microwave
oven
can
be
dangerous,
let
alone
the
microwave
radiation.
This
can
lead
to
skin
burns
or
scalding
injuries,
particularly
on
the
face
and
hands.
To
prevent
superheated
water
from
forming,
the
FDA
says
people
should
not
exceed
the
recommended
heating
time
for
water,
as
indicated
in
the
oven's
instruction
manual.
Indeed,
it's
generally
a
good
idea
to
read
and
follow
your
microwave
oven's
instruction
manual
to
help
keep
yourself
safe
when
using
it.
