哈九中2020-2021学年度下学期4月考高—英语试卷2021. 4.第I卷(选择题,共80分)第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共20小题;每题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AThe best drones (无人机)you can buy right nowDJI Mavic Air 2 ($800)DJI Mavic Air 2 offers clear improvements over previous products. It can shoot 4K videos at 60 fps, along with still photos of up to 48 megapicels (白万像素),while the drone's flight time has been increased to 34 minutes (up from 21). The drone itself starts at $800, but adding the Fly More Combo pack on to your shopping list gives you three batteries and some additional items for another $200.Mavic Mini ($400)Mavic Mini's advantages are its size and weight, the latter of which comes in at just under the 250-gram mark. The biggest drawback is that it doesn't shoot 4K like DJI's higher-end drones, but you'11 still get some impressive 2.7K videos and 12-megapixel still images.Ryze Tello ($110)There may be a handful of clear favorites when it comes to higher-end drones, but things get quite a bit more confusing if you' re just looking for a cheap flyer to try your hand with. While there's no mistaking this for a pro-level piece of equipment, Ryze Tello benefits from a partnership with DJI that gives it some reliable capabilities for the price. DJI Inspire 2 ($3,300)What can professional movie makers get in DJI Inspire 2? A lightweight body, a flight time of 27 minutes, and an amazing 5.2K video quality. Besides, it has retractable (可收回的)landing equipment, and you can turn the camera 360 degrees without anything blocking the view. To fully use DJI Inspire 2, one pilot is needed to pilot the drone and the other to control its camera.1. What has DJI Mavic Air 2 been improved?A. Its weight and flying range.B. Its camera and flying time.C. Its battery and top speed.D. Its size and flight ability.2. Which of the following drones is the best choice for a beginner?A. DJI Mavic Air2.B. DJI Inspire 2.C. Mavic Mini.D. Ryze Tello.3. What is one typical feature of DJI Inspire 2?A. Its camera is able to shoot 4K videos at 60 fps.B. It can fly for an hour on a single battery charge.C. It can be operated by two people at the same time.D. Its landing equipment is made of special materials.4. In which section of a newspaper would the text most likely appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Culture.D. Technology.BWe took a rare family road trip to the Adirondacks in late August, and it was as refreshing and exhausting as family vacations tend to be. Toward the end of our long drive home, even the kids were leaning forward in their seats urging my lead foot on. At that point in a road trip, even sixty-five miles per hour feels slow. We have become numb to our speed and numb to the road signs flashing by.My family lives on the edge of Lancaster County. Only thirty miles from home, I hit the brakes, and we began to roll, slowly, behind a horse-drawn carriage. We began to open our eyes again. We saw familiar green hills and the farm with the best watermelons. I rolled down the windows, and we breathed again. Just-cut hay and a ba rn full of dairy cattle.At five miles per hour, you remember what you forget at sixty-five. You are thinking about a place, even when you are moving from place to place.I am a placemaker. A homemaker, too. I am a mother of a young kid at home, and also a writer and a gardener. But, for me, those roles are wrapped up with the one big thing I want to do with the rest of my life: I want to cultivate a place and share it with others.The place I make with my family is a red-brick farmhouse built in 1880. It has quite a few nineteenth-century bedrooms and a few acres of land, and we love nothing more than to fill them with neighbors and friends. We grow vegetables and flowers, keep a baker's dozen of egg-laying chickens, and, since we moved in three years ago, we have planted many, many trees.Living with my life's purpose does not allow for much travel. I need to be here, feeding the chickens and watering the tomatoes. Any extra in the budget, and we spend it on trees.But I learned something at the end of our family road trip. Travel can help me in the task of caring for my own place. When 1 slow down and pay attention to the road between here and there, travel tells me the connections between my place and all the other places.5. What does the author try to express in the first paragraph?A .The tiredness of her past family life.B. Her disappointment at the family road trip.C. The family's eagerness to return home.D. Kids' excitement at driving fast on the road.6. Why did the author slow her car some miles from her home?A. Because she made way for a horse-drawn carriage.B. Because she enjoyed the scenery along the road.C. Because she needed a break after the long drive.D. Because she wanted to get rid of a fast-paced life.7. The underlined word “placemaker'' in the 4th paragraph refers to someone who.A. devotes most of his energy and time to building his houseB. is ready to help anyone in need in the communityC. makes a creative design for others' housesD. is good at cultivating a place and sharing it with others8. What can be the best title of the passage?A. On the Way HomeB. Never Travel againC. Escape from a Family LifeD. Life on the FarmCUnder the bright white lights of a central exhibition space in London, a few people are sorting themselves into groups. An instructor tells those who feel extremely worried about climate change to go to the far end of the room. Those that areless worried should stay closer to her. Moments later, she is almost alone. Thirty feet away, strangers awkwardly crowd together, signaling that they suffer eco-anxiety.This workshop, organized by Kings College London, is one of several events organized in London to help people work through the feelings of anxiety, depression and grief that arise from confronting (面对)the fact. According to the UN, we now have less than eleven years to prevent catastrophic climate change.The American Psychological Association first defined the eco-anxiety as “a chronic(长期的)fear of environmental doom (厄运)As climate protests and a series of natural disasters put climate on the news agenda, eco-anxiety has exploded across the world. Mental health studies reveal a surge in people reporting stress or depression about the climate.Eco-anxiety is not the same as the clinical disorder, though physicians say fears about the climate can worsen or trigger (激发)pre-existing mental health problems. "In fact, in most cases, eco-anxiety is no more than a healthy response to climate crisis, says psychotherapist Caroline Hickman, a member of the Climate Psychology Alliance.When it comes to treatment, experts say taking action — either by changing your lifestyle to reduce emissions or taking part in activities —can reduce the level of anxiety. But before getting started, you need to talk about your feelings ,“Hickman says, stressing that we need to accept our vulnerability (脆弱).9. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A. Most people have no idea of what eco-anxiety is.B. Many people suffer from the feeling of eco-anxiety.C. People have many reasons to worry about climate change.D. Many people want to hide their worries about climate change.10. What does the word “surge" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. steady decreaseB. slow growthC. rapid declineD. dramatic increase11. What does Caroline Hickman think of eco-anxiety?A. It can give rise to new mental problems.B. It can hardly be cured in a short time.C. It can be regarded as a normal feeling.D. It can solve climate crisis faster.12. What does Caroline Hickman advise people to do to deal with eco-anxiety?A. To discuss it with experts.B. To turn to doctors for help.C. To admit we have such feelings.D. To share our feelings with friends.DThe gender gap in maths-related subjects is obvious. In almost all countries, far fewer women than men choose STEM (理工科)careers.It's not that girls and women arc bad at maths. In the UK in 2020, for example, 39% of 18-year-old girls who studied maths at A-level achieved an A or A+, compared to 42% of boys. For A-level physics, 29% of girls achieved the top two grades, compared to 28% of boys. But in both subjects, boys heavily outnumbered girls by more than 3:1 in the case of physics. So why are so many girls turning their backs on these subjects?A study published recently in the journal PNAS suggests that the answer may in fact lie in male-female differences in academic ability, but the ability in question is reading, not maths. Thomas Breda, at Paris School of Economics, and Clotilde Napp, at Paris Dauphine University, wondered whether this male-female difference in reading could help explain the gender gap in STEM careers. Every three years, hundreds of thousands of 15-year-olds in more than 60 countries takepart in the PISA study (国际学生评估测试).Students complete tests in maths, reading and science, and answer questions about their future career intentions. When Breda and Napp looked at the data from PISA 2012, they realized they were onto something.“There were small gender gaps in maths performa nce at 15 years old, but these gaps were too small to explain the huge gender segregation in STEM," says Breda. But for reading, the tables were turned; the girls were much better than the boys. As a result, when a boy and a girl had similar scores in maths, the girl usually had an even better score in reading.When Breda and Napp compared each student's scores in reading and maths, they found the greater a student's advantage in reading, the less likely they were to plan a career in maths, even when their maths score was also high. Notably, this was true for both boys and girls.“It makes a lot of sense,“ says Sarah Cattan, of the Institute for Fiscal Studies. "It shows that what matters most when boys and girls choose their field of study is not how good they are in maths or in reading, but how good they are in maths relative to reading.”13.What do the data in Paragraph 2 show?A. The average gender difference in maths performance is small.B. Those who are good at maths are also good at physics.C. Physics tends to be easier for girls than maths.D. Girls are not better than boys at maths.14.According to Breda and Napp, who is most likely to plan a career in maths?A. Tom whose maths is worse than reading.B. Lisa whose maths is better than reading.C. Lily whose reading is better than maths.D. Jack whose reading is as good as maths.15. According to Sarah Cattan, what do students value much when making further study choices?A. Their comparative strength instead of absolute ability.B. Their gender advantages in a specific academic field.C. Their future job landing possibility in an industry.D. Their particular interest in a certain subject.16. What is the best title for the text?A. Why are we drawn to STEM careers?B. Are boys worse at reading and writing?C. Why are girls bad at maths-related subjects?D. Are good readers more likely to give up maths?EPm a professor of rhetoric and literature. Whether it is global literature or historic literature, or pictographs (象形文字),I teach all of them. Literature is the chronicle (编年史)of the human condition over time. It shows exactly how people advance with technology and awareness of social issues. It can cultivate people with the good character and affect their lives.Why do we find pictograms or cave paintings filled with animals that lived in the area? They are the communication of location information during the nomadic eras. That is fairly nice of one group of people to tell the next tribe what to cat. Why do we have cave paintings of Nessie or other horrible monsters? Pick any piece of the cave paintings from across the globe and ask whether it is designed to share with others and warn others, and you'll know it shows the prowess of thehunters or their honor to others. All of these appear in different ways during different times; they are all the foundational elements, including some big events.And humans naturally move toward discovery. We look to space or observe animals and plants to better understand ourselves and the world we are living in. We write down what we have discovered, which becomes part of literature. On the Origin of Species is foundational, biological literature but it's also literature. We find ourselves by reading classic literary works and literature can offer heartbreak or hope or both or give us a window into all of life.Functionally, think of those famous and able generals, who were written into the global history because they had not only read but also understood The Art of War to the point of being able to apply it with ease. Anyhow, literature benefits us. If you are able to read it and understand it, it becomes a part of you. And you are likely to apply those emotions and intelligence in daily life without realizing it.17. Which is excluded from the category of literature according to the author?A. Music records.B. Cave paintings.C. The Historical Records.D. On the Origin of Species.18. What is one of the purposes of ancient people using these pictograms?A. To show what food they had eaten.B. To point out what nomadic eras are.C. To indicate where the animals were.D. To tell hunters how to hunt animals.19. What does the underlined word "prowess" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Tool or weapon.B. Harvest or capture.C. Skill or technology.D. Bravery or fearlessness.20. What does the author try to show through the example of those generals?A. Literature affects our emotions.B. Generals like reading literature.C. Literature helps people become successful.D. Literature has something to do with wars.第二节(共5小题:每题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIf you’re a design enthusiast, you’re sure to feel dizzy over these jaw-dropping pools.Sky Park Infinity Pool, Marina Bay Sands, SingaporeLocated on the Sky Park above Singapore’s most famous hotel, Marina Bay Sands, this is the world’s largest rooftop pool. Offering amazing views of the city’s skyline, the pool is at least three times the length of an Olympic swimming pool. As visitors swim toward the edge, they face an illusion that they’ll float into the sky-line. It’s quite a heart-beaten rush!The Red Pool, The Library Koh Samui, ThailandThis blood-red pool is perhaps one of the most special hotel pools on the list. Set against the backdrop of Koh Samui’s Chaweng Beach, the fascinating color isn’t the result of using artificial dye. Rather, the mosaic tiles (马赛克瓷砖) of orange, yellow and red make the brilliant sight that is set among trees and an open-air library.San Alfonso del Mar Resort Pool, Region de valparaiso, ChileThe world’s largest outdoor swimming pool gets its water directly from the sea. The pool uses a computer-controlled pump and filtration system. Located at Chile’s San Alfonso del Mar Resort, this huge man-made pool is larger than 20 Olympic-size pools and holds approximately 250 million liters of water. It is also one of the deepest pools in the world.Y-40 Deep Joy, Hotel Millepini Terme in Montegrotto Terme, ItalyThe deepest hotel swimming pool in the world will make you feel like you’re jumping into the sea! The Y-40 Deep Joy is a round-shaped pool that reaches a depth of an impressive 130 feet. The pool, which has special caves, ledges (壁架) and underwater viewing glass, was designed by well-known architect Emanuele Boaretto. It’s meant for leisure dives, dive training and photo shoots.1. What is special about the Red Pool in Thailand?。

ASeptember is one of the very best months to visit France.Not only will you get to enjoy plenty of sunshine and warm weather,but the tourist season is beginning to wind down—which means cheaper airfares,lower prices at hotels,and fewer crowds.If this is your first trip to France,here is some handy information to help you get started planning your vacation!Go Wine TastingSeptember is the beginning of the grape harvest season in France,meaning there are plenty of wine-related events and festivals around the country.So September is a great time to visit the vineyards (葡萄园) around the country and go wine tasting.The Bordeaux,Loire and Burgundy regions are all lovely and great places to visit vineyards.Besides that,going to the castles of the Loire region between visiting vineyards on such warm and sunny days is also very enjoyable.Take a Barge Cruise (游艇巡游)The temperatures are slightly lower,but plenty of sunshine makes for perfect conditions to enjoy a barge cruise on the canals of France.With such comfortable weather and beautiful scenery at this time of year,nothing equals hanging out on the deck of a barge.Visit the MuseumsMany museums in France have extended opening hours during the summer to accommodate the extra tourists and locals,and some museums also have extended opening hours into September.Wandering around the Louvre (卢浮宫) will take you into a wonder world,where you can enjoy world-famous art.Going out of the Louvre,you can walk to the modern and fashionable Champs Elysees to do some shopping.Besides the above,riding a bike through France’s villages is also a welcome activity for young visitors in September,So,don’t hesitate and start to p lan your September trip to France now.21.Which region should you go to if you want to visit both vineyards and castles? A.Bordeaux, B.Loire.C.Burgundy.D.Paris.22.According to the text,many French museums have extended opening hours in___.A.February.B.May C.July D.December 23.Which of the following can best describe France in September?A.Hot and quiet.B.Cool and noisy.C.Cold and noisy.D.Warm and quiet.BWhen we see a person in trouble,the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand.But what if we see an animal in trouble,does the same rule apply?This question was raised after a group of penguins were saved from all icy gully (峡谷) in Antarctica.It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties.The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young.They built a slope (斜坡) so that a few of the penguins could save themselves.The case has taken the international media by storm.Viewers watching this film sighed in relief.“ I’m so glad.I understand not taking action directly,but a helping hand isn’t bothering,right? ” viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook.However,others think human interference (干涉) is unnatural.“You can’t have sunshine throughout your life.To have done anything else would only make matters worse” said the show’s creator David Attenborough,according to The Times.In this case,however,Mike Gunton,the executive producer of the series,said that this was a one-off (非经常的) situation “Ther e were no animals going to suffer by interfering.You weren’t touching the animals and it was just felt by doing this…They had the chance not to have to keep slipping down the slope.”he told the BBC.Such cases are familiar to Paul Nicklen,wildlife photographer for National Geographic.He told Metro,“If it’s ever a predator (捕食者) situation,no matter how gut-wrenching,you stay out of the way, even when you’re watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear.”“There’s no rule book in those situations.You can only respond to the facts that are right there in front of you.”Will Lawson,the show’s director,told Daily Mail.24.What has led to a heated media discussion?A.The rescue of penguins from a gully.B.People’s various remarks on penguins.C.Some penguins’ suffer ings in a gully.D.Ways of filming the series Dynasties.25.Who holds a positive attitude towards human interference?A.David Attenborough.B.Will Lawson.C.Paul Nicklen.D.Kathryn Shaw.26.Which of the following best explains the word “gut-wrench ing” underlined in Para 6?A.Making one confused,B.Making one heartbroken.C.Putting one in danger.D.Putting one in place.27.What can be the best title for the text?A.Necessity of Lending a Hand to AnimalsB.Protect Animals From Dying OutC.Human Interference on Dangerous AnimalsD.Help Animals in Trouble or NotCToday’ s world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. A key skill set for success is persistence (毅力), characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, thepersistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school.“There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers,” Padilla-Walker said. “This research also helps to prove that characteris tics such as persistence -- which can be taught -- are key to a child’s life success.”Researchers determined that dads need to practice an “authoritative” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian: rigid, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed ;children are given an appropriate level of autonomy(自主权).In the study, about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. Key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better outcomes in school.This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research.28. What is speci al about the BYU professors’ study?A. It centered on fathers’ role in parenting.B. It was based on a number of large families.C. It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles.D. It aimed to improve kids’ achievement in school.29. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children?A. Ignore their demands.B. Make decisions for them.C. Control their behaviors.D. Explain the rules to them.30. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers?A. Single parents.B. Children aged from 11 to 14.C. Authoritarian fathers.D. Mothers in two-parent homes.31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Three Characteristics of Authoritative FathersB. Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in FutureC. Children Tend to Learn Determination from FatherD. Family Relationship Influences School PerformanceDWhen you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (时装) enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria (海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made in to clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur ---unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species (物种). It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us." says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades,but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s,the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion. Model Paige Morgan says,“To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing,at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She’s trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.32. What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A. To promote guilt-free fur.B. To expand the fashion market.C. To introduce a new brand.D. To celebrate a winter holiday.33. Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A. Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B. Nutria are an endangered species.C. Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D. Nutria are illegally hunted.34. What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Boomed.B. Became mature.C. Remained stable.D. Crashed.35. What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A. It’s formal.B. It’s risky.C. It’s harmful.D. It’s traditional.第二节7选5(共5小题,每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据下面短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It was lovely. But what wasn't so lovely was the attitude of the lady who took our order. She spoke in a way that made her sound frustrated, unhappy, unfriendly,and sort of rude.When it came to my turn to approach her and order, I thought to myself, “What can I do here to make her day?”Surely, there must be something I can sincerely compliment her on. Then there it was. I knew instantly. Or to be more accurate, I heard instantly. It was her voice. She had the most unbelievably well-spoken and clear voice. It was so good. That was it. That was what I would compliment her on.So, after she had taken my order and given me the same unfriendly attitude, I told her, “I hope you don't mind me saying but you have the most amazing voice. It's so clear, well-spoken and it sounds so professional. You have the type of voice that would be perfect for announcements, or even radio.” Her face lit up. She smiled(the first time I had seen her do so) and as I left and walked away, I noticed her whole attitude change. The customer behind me received a totally different kind of service, a happierone, all because of what I did, something that was so simple.There was a time when doing this sort of thing would have embarrassed the hell out of me, or I'd have been way too shy and awkward to say such a thing. Now I feel it's my duty to do it. Why? Because I have the power, the power to completely change someone's day with something as simple as a few kind words. You have this power, too. We all do.24.What made the author uncomfortable this morning?A. The rudeness of the friend.B. The way the lady taking the order spoke.C.The poor quality of the foodD.The noise customers made in the restaurant.25. Why did the author want to compliment the lady on her voice?A.To persuade her to work in radio.B. To make friends with her.C. To receive her good service.D. To make her cheerful.26. How did the lady react to the author's words?A. She walked away with an angry look.B. She paid no attention to the words.C. She changed her attitude towards customers.D. She applied for a job as a radio announcer.27.What is the best title of the text?A. An Unkind LadyB. The Amazing V oiceC. The Power of KindnessD. A Great Change in My DayCWhen some thing goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” Or “I know I’m late, it’s not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about----creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “Whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just the stepping stone for success.28. According to the passage, winners_________.A.blame themselves rather than othersB. meet with fewer difficulties in their livesC. have responsible and able colleaguesD. deal with problems rather than blame others29. The underlined word remedy in Paragraph1 is closest in meaning to ________.A. improveB. refuseC.avoidD. consider30. When problems occur, winners take them as________.A. excuses for their failuresB. chances for self-developmentC. challenges to their colleaguesD. barriers to greater power31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.A Winner’s OpportunityB. A Winner’s ProblemC. A Winner’s SecretD. A Winner’s AchievementDCrimes happen every day, but people aren’t the only victims o f illegal activities. There are also animals. Though animals can’t tell the police officers what they’ve suffered, these are some of the hardest cases to solve.As we all know, poachers can make a lot of money by selling meat, fur and other parts of protected animals. As the animals become rarer, their parts become more valuable. So poachers earn even greater rewards for their collection of protected species. In the past few years, the price of ivory has risen to about $850 per kg. One piece can sometimes weigh 11 kg or more.Now, scientists are fighting back. It is known that DNA plays a big part in solving human crimes. Like fingerprints, DNA is unique to every person. So by examining DNA in blood or hair, the police can recognize criminals and victims.When the police find poached animal parts, such as their fur or bones, it is difficult to know what species the victims are, which is mostly cared about. DNA can prove helpful in figuring it out and also where the animals came from. That’s because members of one local group of animals share more DNA in common with each other than they do with more distant groups of their species.If the world’s poaching victims could talk, they would probably thank these scientists for their work.32. Why does the author use the example of ivory?A. To show ivory is the most expensive part of an elephant.B.To show poachers always treat the protected animals cruelly.C. To show poachers make a large profit from their illegal activities.D. To show poaching is a very common activity in the world.33. What is the author’s attitude towards the scientists’ work?A. Critical.B. Doubtful.C.Uninterested.D. Appreciative.34. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. How DNA technique helps the policeB. Why DNA is unique to every person.C. The improvement of DNA technique.D. .How to examine DNA of an animal.35. When the police find poached animal parts, what is the first th ing they want to know?A. Who killed the animals.B. What species they belong toC. .When the crime happened.D. Where the animals came from.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

For two years I got pr actically nothing down on paper, and my 21 was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the next 22 I conducted an experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundredw ords or so. To my 23 , at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript ready for revision, later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal method. 24 my teaching schedule had bee heavier than ever, in every day there were idle moments whichcould be caught and put to use.

Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world's first igloo hotel. Built in a small town in Lapland, it has been attracting lots of visitors, but soon the fun will be over.In two weeks'time Bergqvist's ice creationwill be nothing more than a pool of water. "We don't see it as a big problem," he says. "We just look forward to replacing it."Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was so successful that he designed the present one, which measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmenspent more than eight weeks piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base;when the snow froze, the base was removed. "The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door," he says.After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. Wi th no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxinghotel break. "It's great fun," Bergqvist explains, "as w ell as a good start in survival training."The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt: it is now attracting tourists from all ov er the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms. "You can get a lot of people in," explains Bergqvist. "The beds are three meters wide by two meters long, and can fit at least four at one time."36. Bergqvist designed and built the world's first igloo hotel because ______A. he believed people would enjoy trying something newB. he wanted to make a name for the small townC. an art exhibition was about to openD. more hotel rooms were needed37. When the writer says "the fun will be over," he refers to the fact that ______A. hotel guests will be frightened at the thought of the hard testB. Bergqvist's hotel will soon bee a pool of waterC. holidaymakers will soon get tired of the big iglooD. a bigger igloo will replace the present one38. According to the text, the first thing to do in building an igloo is ______A. to gather a pool of waterB. to prepare a wooden baseC. to cover the ground with iceD. to pile a large amount of snow39. When guests leave the igloo hotel they will receive a paper stating that _____A. they have visited LaplandB. they have had an ice-snow holidayC. they have had great fun sleeping on iceD. they have had a taste of adventure40.

We can learn from the text that_______________.A. sports writers are a type of audienceB. New York Times is a gold mine panyC. Denise Grady will discuss political policyD. book reviews may affect book salesC.The discovery that language can be a barrier (障碍) to munication is quickly made by all who travel, study, govern or sell. Whether the activity is tourism, research, government, policing or business, the lack of a mon language can severely delay progress or can stop it altogether.Although munication problems of this kind must happen thousands of times each day, very few bee public knowledge. Publicity es only when a failure to municate has major results, such as strikes, lost orders, legal problems or deadly accidents--even, at times, war. One reported example of munication failure took place in 1970, whenseveral Americans ate a species of poisonous mushroom. No remedy was known, and two of the people died within days. A radio report of the case was heard by a chemist who knew of a treatment that had been successfully used in 1959 and published in 1963. Why had the American doctors not heard of it seven years later? Possibly because the report of the treatment had been published only in journals written in European languages other than English.Several parable cases have been reported. But isolated (孤立的) examples do not give an impression of the size of the problem--something that can e only from studies of the use or avoidance of foreign-language materials and contacts in different municative situations. In the English-speaking scientific world, for example, surveys of books and documents consulted in libraries and other information agencies have shown that very little foreign-language material is ever consulted. Library requests in the field of science and technology showed that only 13 percent were for foreign language journals.The language barrier presents itself entirely to firms who wish to market their products in other countries. British industry, in particular, has in recent decades often been criticized for its assumption (设想) that foreign buyers will be happy to municate in English, and that awareness of other languages is not therefore a matter to be considered first. In the 1960s, over two-thirds of British firms dealing withnon-English-speaking customers were using English for outgoing letters; many had their sales language only in English; and as many as 40 percent employed no one who was able to municate in the customer's languages. A similar problem was identified in other English-speaking countries, especially the USA, Australia and New Zealand. And non-English speaking countries were by no means free from the sameproblem--although the widespread use of English as an alternative (可替换的) language made them a bit more able to municate with other countries.The criticism and publicity given to this problem since the 1960s seems to have greatly improved the situation. Industrial training projects have promoted an increase in language and cultural awareness. Many firms now have their own translation services. Some firms run part-time language courses in the languages of the countries with which they are most involved; some produce their own technical glossaries (词汇表), to ensure consistency (一致性) when material is being translated. It is now much more readily accepted that marketing efforts can be delayed, damaged or ruined by a failure to take the language needs of the customer into consideration.46. munication problems may e to the attention of the public when ______.A. somebody has diedB. a serious traffic accident has happenedC. serious results have been causedD. people have trouble in travelling47. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “remedy” in Paragraph 2?A. doctorB. mushroomC. poisonD. treatment48. What can we infer about American doctors from the case of the poisonous mushrooms?A. They probably only read reports written in English.B. They hadn’t read that report of the treatment.C. They didn’t know how to treat such a case.D. They were unable to get reports written in other languages.49. Firms of English-speaking countries use English only when marketing their products because ______.A. English is their official languageB. they don’t know their products will be sold abroadC. people in their countries don’t know other languagesD. they think foreign customers will be happy when English is used50. Which of the following ways has been used by the British panies to solve the problem of language barrier since the 1960s?A. Employing foreign workers.B. Setting up their own translation services.C. Providing English training for foreign customers.D. Stopping exporting goods to foreign countries.D.Mo was waiting in the corridor outside her class. She was feeling sick.

Oh no, Mo hadn't answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!Mo wanted to talk to Terry at lunch time, but she couldn't find her anywhere. The next exam was history. That was Mo's favourite subject but she wasn't feeling good. Mo went to the library to study, but she couldn't concentrate. She didn't know what to do about Terry. She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. "It wasn't fair! " she thought. "Terry was getting good grades by cheating all that time. " thought Mo. Just then, Mr. Reed walked past her table. "Mr. Reed. . . "Mo was sitting behind Terry again in the history exam that afternoon. Mo was feeling terrible. Why had she told Mr. Reed? But it was too late now. And anyway, Terry didn't want to be her friend! Mr. Reed wanted her to look at him and nod if she saw that Terry was cheating in the exam. She was working on the last question when she saw that Terry had her phone under the table withou t thinking, Mo looked up and nodded to Mr. Reed. Terry was too busy looking at her phone and she didn't hear him as he walked silently up to her table. Mr. Reed didn't say anything. He jus picked up her exam paper, tore it in half and pointed to the door, to tell Terry to leave the room. Terry was crying as she walked to the door. Everyone was staring at her and Mo felt really guilty now. Why did she tell Mr. Reed?Mo was walking towards the school gate, when she heard footsteps behind her. It was Terry. "Mo, please wait I want to talk to you." Mo could see that Terry had been crying, her face was pale and her eyes were red. Mo couldn't say a word. “Listen," said Terry. "I'm really sorry I haven’t answered any of your calls, but we're having a terrible time at home. My dad had a heart attack two weeks ago and he's in hospital. He had a big heart operation today and I was very worried about him. I know it was stupid, but I was reading texts from my mum to see how the operation was going, but Mr. Reed caught me with my phone. He thought I was cheating. He believes me now, but I have to take the exam again. I'm sorry I didn't tell you what was happening. I haven't forgotten that you're a good friend'. Will you forgive me?“51.

But, providing electricity is not the major advantage of waste-to-energy plants. In fact, it costs more to generate electricity at a waste-to-energy plant than it does at a coal, nuclear, or hydropower plant.The major advantage of burning waste is that it considerably reduces the amount of trash going to landfills. The average American produces more than 1,600 pounds of waste a year. If all this waste were landfilled (在垃圾填埋地上处理), it would take more than two cubic yards of landfill space. That’s the volume of a box three feet long, three feet wide, and six feet high. If that waste were burned, the ashes would fit into a box three feet long, three feet wide, but only nine inches high!Some munities in the Northeast may be running out of land for new landfills. And, since most people don’t want landfills in their backyards, it has bee more difficult to obtain permits to build new landfills. Taking the country as a whole, the United States has plenty of open space, of course, but it is expensive to transport garbage a long distance to put it into a landfill.TO BURN OR NOT TO BURN?Some people are concerned that burning garbage mayharm the environment. Like coal plants, waste-to-energy plants produce air pollution when the fuel is burned to produce steam or electricity. Burning garbage releases the chemicals and substances found in the waste. Some chemicals can be a threat to people, the environment, or both, if they are not properly controlled.Some critics of waste-to-energy plants are afraid thatburning waste will hamper (妨碍,阻碍) recycling programs. If everyone sends their trash to a waste-to-energy plant, they say, there will be little motive to recycle. Several states have considered or are considering banning waste-to-energy plants unlessrecycling programs are in place. Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York City have delayed new waste-to-energy plants, hoping to increase the level of recycling first.So, what’s the real story? Can recycling and burningwaste coexist? At first glance, recycling and waste-to-energy seem to be at odds (不一致), but they can actually plement (弥补) each other. That’s because it makes good sense to recycle some materials, and better sense to burn others.Let’s look at aluminum, for example. Aluminum mineralis so expensive to mine that recycling aluminum more than pays for itself. Burning it produces no energy. So clearly, aluminum is valuable to recycle and not useful to burn.Paper, on the other hand, can either be burned orrecycled —it all depends on the price the used paper will bring.Plastics are another matter. Because plastics are madefrom petroleum and natural gas, they are excellent sources of energy forwaste-to-energy plants. This is especially true since plastics are not as easy to recycle as steel, aluminum, or paper. Plastics almost always have to be hand sorted and making a product from recycled plastics may cost more than making it from new materials.To burn or not to burn is not really the question. Weshould use both recycling and waste-to-energy as alternatives to landfilling.Waste to Energy —JUST BURN IT!扬大附中xx第一学期阶段测试高二英语试卷答案单选:DADCB BDBCA DBDBB完型:(淮阴中学xx届高三10月月考英语试题)BADBC ACDAB CDABC ADBDC阅读:A:(xx年全国高考英语试题)ABBDAB:(浙江省湖州市xx高考英语阅读理解一轮(暑假)精炼)BCABDC:(xx浙江高考一模冲刺提优卷)CDADBD:(xx杭州市第一次高考教学质量检测)BCACDB任务型阅读:56. cost 57. reduce / prevent / stop 58.

He came to Beijing for a cooperative research at Beijing University two years ago. Such an academic life was colorful with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project “I’m in China”.Bradley was lucky to win the most “likes” for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations by the project this summer. All the winners’ experiences were filmed to produce a reality show, My Chinese Working Day, which be broadcast by mid-September.Bradly was chosen to work a recreational manger for a Chinese wedding. The film crew took them to many “amazing sites” and the staff at the resort taught them a lot about how to incorporate modem Chinese features while still keeping traditional customs.“I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organize weddings here in China,” he said. That was Bradley’s first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the “stunning” view of the coastline.“I think it is so important to show other Australian the different landscapes China has to offer, I think so many Australians, when they think about China, imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to see in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places, like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV series. It was nice to experience these little touches. I was happy to bea part of that experience!” Bradley said.21. What ma de Bradley’s life more colorful?A. Obtaining his PhDB. The cultural exchanges project.C. The research about Beijing University.D. The interest in international relations22. Which of the following best explains “stunning” in Paragraph 4?A. FantasticB. ConfusingC. PlainD. Extreme.23. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. It’s difficult to produce moving TV series.B. Beijing and Shanghai are historical sites.C. Many Australians know little about ChinaD. Bradley was impressed by the view of the coastlineBAlthough being famous might sound like dream come true, today’s stars, feeling like zoo animals. Face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparzzi(狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready Tabloids publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebrities--famous people--worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villarreal says, “they feel separated and alone.”The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B.C. painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers When Charles Dickens visited his sold-out- readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain(抱怨) about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something ridiculous, there is always the Internet silly or do something t o spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some starts stay clam by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever mad them famous in the first place.Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.24.

The next step in the same process is robotics and automation Robotics and automation is field with abundant potential. It expands its scope from household applications to solving mysteries of the Universe to curing untreatable medical conditions.Up until the beginning of 2020, robots of any kind are made up of non-living materials. Recently scientists from the University of Vermont & Tufts University introduced Xenobots, which have opened a whole new Universe for this field. Xenobots are the world’s first living and self-healing microbots. These robots are designed with the help of computer-generated-evolutionary algorithm(算法) The living cells used for its creation are skin heart and stem cell from the African frog embryos(胚胎).These microbots are very basic in nature. made up entirely from the organic substance. They can move forward, turn around, spin in circles and flip over. They are smaller than a millimeter and can travel inside the human body. Just imagine the possibilities we will have, once a scientist is able to teach Xenobots to do the desired task. One day they even might be able to fight cancer cells. They will be able to clear microplastics in the oceans and lots more.But if these bots are a life form, why are we calling them robots? This is because scientists are designing them to move or work according to their wills. A certain arrangement for skin and heart cells in an Xenobot will make it move in a straight line, while a different arrangement of the same cells will be required to move them in circular motions.Xenobots are positively a great step. Scientists are also calling them a brand new life form on the planet. The future is unseen but is undoubtedly full of countless possibilities27. Which of the following is the potential of the robotics?A. Making complex machines.B. Reducing manual effortsC. Expanding our scopes.D. Clearing space mysteries.28. Where do Xenobots differ from the other previous robots?A. In natureB. In size.C. In materials.D. In movement29. What are Xenobots able to do already now?A. Travel inside the human body.B. Create new life.C. Fight cancer cellsD. Clear microplastics in the oceans.30. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of Xenobots?A. DoubtfulB. Positive.C. Disapproving.D. Ambiguous. 第二节(共5个小题:每小题2分满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Instead of ignoring her request, Ohio officer Lieutenant B. J. Gruber did his best to lend a hand.Lena informed the policeman that she was stuck on the problem(8+29)×15. He quickly responded: ”Do the numbers in the parentheses(括号) first so in fact it would be 37×15.”After settling the first question, Lieutenant Gruber was given a more difficult task. Lena asked him for the answer to (90+27)+(29+15)×2. The confident officer responded with what he believed to be the correct answer, advising: ”Take the answer from the first parentheses plus the answer from the second parentheses and multiply that answer by two. Work left to right doing the work in parentheses first.”But embarrassingly, Facebook users were quick to notice that his maths solving didn’t quite add up. To solve the problem, you must actually add the numbers in the second parentheses and multiply the answer by two, before adding the numbers in the first set of brackets.Lena’s mum Molly said, ”I didn’t believe her at first. I thought it was pretty funny. I was happy, but not surprised that they responded so quickly. They are wonderful with their communication with the community.”After Lieutenant Gruber was told about the mistake, he joked: “Hoping it is truly the thought that counts since obviously I can’t! Especially since the answer was wrong, it was very nice for Molly to recognize our attempt to help her daughter with some maths homework.”It’s not the first time that adults have been left feeling trapped by a maths assignment aimed at kids.5.What is the text mainly about?A.

Having no experience, I had to work in a small town until I finally got my big break in the from of a job in Boston. I made it.Soon, reality set in. I was too often sent to run after accused criminals out of courts, waiting outside of crime scene tape or at the doorstep of a family still crying for tragedy(悲剧). My breaking point came the day I accidentally informed a young woman that her mother died. It was the worst day of my professional life and the day I decided I no longer wanted to shine a light on these stories. My career was ebbing, and at the same time my personal life was too--I divorced.My mom had always told me “When you’re feeling extremely upset, go help someone else.”So I started seeking out stories of people who had been in the news under tragic circumstances but were doing something inspiring with their lives: a young girl who was paralyzed(瘫痪的) by an accident but was uplifting her classmates with her positive spirit, a blind and autistic(自闭的) musician who learned to play 27 instruments, a disabled soldier who opened his own art studio. I started to tell and promote stories like them.Over the last 10 years I have discovered my kindness gift: my ability to see the beautiful side of a person and reflect it back to them and the world. In telling stories of people turning their own hurt into acts of helping others I have become more sympathetic, more grateful and kinder. I have learned kindness is who we are, that our power for it is limitless and that, as we shine a light on it, it grows.8.What changed the author’s working direction in his job in Boston?A.

The number of people who caught the flu was then compared with local weather data.After each season, the team noticed one consistent finding: The first really cold period with low outdoortemperatures and low humidity(湿度) was always followed by a week of a mass influenza outbreak.The researchers say that aerosol particles(气溶胶粒子) containing virus and liquid are more able to spread in cold and dry weather. So, in theory, if you sneeze or cough and the surrounding air is very dry, the air will absorb the moisture and the particles containing the virus keep spreading through the air for a longer period of time.Luckily, there are ways to keep off the illness regardless of the weather. Washing your hands, coughing into the crook(弯曲) of your arm and getting the vaccine(疫苗) are the best ways to prevent the flu from spreading. People over the age of 65, pregnant women and young children are at the highest risk of developing complications(并发症) related to the virus, according to the CDC.12.From the first paragraph we can infer that .A. people may easily fall sickB. nobody can predict when one gets fluC. flu is often related to weather changesD. weather report plays an important part in life13.How did the researchers draw the conclusion of the study?A.

Low temperature can increase the number of aerosol particles15.What can we learn about from the last paragraph?A. The vaccines for fluB. The main ways to cure fluC. The most common kind of flu virusD. The people who are easy to get flu第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
