The boy looked around and said, “We’re losing by six runs (分) and the game is in the eighth inning (局).I guess he can be on our team and we’ll try to put him in to bat in the final inning.Shay struggled over to the team’s bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart. The boys saw the father’s joy at his son being accepted.In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay’s team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the final inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field. In the bottom of the final inning, Shay’s team scored again. Now, Shay was scheduled to be next at bat. Would they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible. The first pitch (投) came and Shay missed. The pitcher again again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in , Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.The pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game .Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates, The audience and the players from both teams started screaming,“Shay, run to first! ”Never in his life had Shay ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked..E veryone should, “Run to second!” Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second.By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team,who had a chance to be the hero for his team fir the first time,could have thrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitcher’s intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman’s head.All were screaming，“Shay，Shay，Shay，all the way Shay.” Shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted, “Shay, run to third.” As Shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying,“Shay, run home！”Shay ran to home, stepped on th e home base and was cheered as the hero who the who won the game for his team.That day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world. Shay didn’t make it to another summer and died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!6. In the bottom of the final inning Shay was given the bat because the boys _________.A. believed they were sure to win the gameB. would like to help Shay enjoy the gameC. found Shay was so eager to be a winnerD. fell forced to give Shay another chance7.

What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn’t we know who they are?Joan Mclean think so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she’s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who”invented”what”, however, Mclean a lso likes her students to learn the answers to the”why” and ”how” questions. According to Mclean,”When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a t ry.”So,just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well,Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to Mew York City.The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights ,so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the winshield,she found hersefe wondering why there couldn’t be a buolt-in devic for cleaing the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would contral an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations，It’s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A.Morgan’s traffic light. It’s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J.Blodgett’s innovation that makes glass invisible, Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses?9.By mentioni ng “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”, the author indicates that countless inventions are .A. beneficial, because their inventors are famousB. beneficial, though their inventors are less famousC. not useful, because their inventors are less famousD. not useful, though their inventors are famous10.Professor Joan McLean’s course aims to_____.A. add color and variety to students’ campus lifeB. inform students of the windshield wiper’s inventionC. carry out the requirements by Mountain UniversityD. pre[are st udents to try their own invention11. Which 0f the following can best serve as the title of this passage?A How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?B How to Design a Built-in Dervice for Cleaning the Window?C Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?D Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?2015届高三英语限时训练(20) 参考答案A篇1.

2015届高三英语限时训练(27)( A )More than a third of the babies born this year could receive a 100th birthday message from whoever happens to be on the throne in the second decade of the 22nd century, according to figures published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).It forecasts that 35% of the 826,000 people born in 2012 will live to become centenarians.But a long life is not unalloyed good news. David Sinclair, head of policy and research at the International Longevity Centre UK,warned that for many the future may mean social isolation(隔离)as they live longer than friends and members of their families.“It is of course good news that so many more people are living longer,” he said,” but there is a big problem. We will be older, but in worse health, and at high risk of living alone. The other problem is that we are very poor at forward planning. We deal with the problems that are under our noses, but even problems two or three years away seem quite distant enough to put off. When you’re talking about forecasts for a time half a century away and more, I see no evidence that we are putting in place the measures to deal with it.”This year there will be 14,500 centenarians in the UK, a number which is expected to increase to 110,000 in 2035.Women have higher life expectancies than men at every age: the likelihood of a girl born this year reaching her century is estimated to be 39%;for boys the figure is 32%.The estimated number of female centenarians has risen from 500 in 1961 to more than 10,000 in 2010,a figure which is projected to reach 71,000 by 2035 and 276,000 by 2060.Men are also living far longer, although their numbers are far fewer. There was an estimated of 92 male centenarians in 1961 and just below 2,000 in 2010.1.The underlined word “centenarians” probably means people wh o .A. are born this yearB. live longer than their friendsC. are in poor healthD. are a hundred or more years old2.From what David Sinclair said, we can learn .A. he doesn’t believe so many peop le are living longerB. the older we are, the more likely we are to live alone and in poor healthC. the people who are good at forward planning are likely to live longerD. too distant planning is not always necessary for most of us3.Which of the following statements is true?A. About 289,100 people born in 2012 will live to 100.B. More men will reach their century than women in the future.C. The number of the female centenarians was 1,000 in 1970s.D. More than 600 people reached their century in 1961.4.What does this passage mainly talk about?A.A long life is not always good news.B.A long life also means social and physical isolation.C. In the future, more people will live to 100 in the UK.D. It is good to live to 100.( B )Children will find it more difficult to buy cigarettes as vending machines(自动售货机)selling tobacco will be officially banned in England today. According to the British Heart Foundation(BHF),around 200,000 young people start smoking regularly in England each year and 11 percent of 11-to-15-year-old regular smokers in England and Wales get theircigarettes from vending machines.Betty McBride, Director of Policy and Communications at the British Heart Foundation,said,“Thousands of children who are at risk of addiction regularly get tobacco from these machines, which of cou rse, don’t ask them to prove their age. With the tobacco industry increasingly depending on young smokers to keep their profits,they’re fighting tooth and nail to stop any changes that might hit their bottom line.”The ban, which makes it i llegal to sell tobacco from vending machines and requires shopkeepers to ensure all tobacco advertising on the machines is removed, comes into force in England today. It is the first ban in Europe to prohibit selling cigarettes from vending machines, which shows the determination of England to fight against smoking.Other measures to protect young people from the dangers of smoking are also on the way. In April 2013 large retailers(零售商)in England and Scotland will have to get rid of all tobacco displays and small shops will be expected to do that from April 2015.Wales and Northern Ireland also plan to make similar regulations.The UK Government is due to begin a public consultation before the end of the year on whether to introduce plain packaging for cigarettes which would reduce their marketing appeal to young people, help to make health warnings more effective and, alongside other measures, help to reduce the number of smokers in the long term.9.According to the text, vending machines selling cigarettes .A. offer cheaper productsB. have more varieties of productsC. don’t check buyers’ personal informationD. keep a record of every purchase10.The tobacco industry may be against the new regulation because .A. more children will be at risk of tobacco addictionB. it will bring inconvenience to its consumersC. young smokers will be discouragedD. many vending machines will be left unused11.Small stores in Scotland .A. will be banned from selling tobacco next yearB. can still present cigarettes for around 2 yearsC. must get rid of all tobacco advertisementsD. must show warnings about cigarettes in 201312.It can be inferred from the text that .A. plain packaging is a must for cigarettesB. the number of tobacco companies will be limitedC. tobacco’s harm to health will be put down on packagesD. opinions will be asked for plans of tobacco controlling13.What is the best title for the text?A. Cigarette vending machines banned.B. The youth’s addiction to tobacco.C. UK’s efforts to improve people’s health.D. Strong opposition from tobacco industry.( C )Red roses were her favorites; her name was also Rose. And every year her husband sent them, tied with pretty bows. The year he died, the roses were delivered to her door. The cardsaid,” Be my Valentine(情人),”like all the years before.Each year he s ent her roses, and the note would always say,” I love you even more this year, than last year on this day. My love for you will always grow, with every passing year.” She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear. She thought, he ordered roses in advance before this day. Her loving husband did not know that he would pass away. He always liked to do things early.Then,if he got too busy, everything would work out fine. She cut away some stems, placed them in a very special vase, and set the va se beside the picture of his smiling face. She would sit for hours in her husband’s favorit e chair,staring at his photo and the roses sitting there.A year went by, and it was hard to live without her mate. Loneliness and solitude had become her fate. Th en, the very hour, as on Valentine’s Day before, the doorbell rang, and there were roses, sitting by her door. She brought the roses in, and just looked at them in shock.Then,she went to get the telephone to call the florist(花匠)shop. The owner answered, and she asked him, if he would explain why someone would do this to her, causing her such pain.“I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago,” the owner said,” I knew you’d call, and you would want to know. The flower s you received today were paid for in advance. Your husband always planned ahead. He left nothing to change.”“There is a standing order that I have on file down here. And he has paid, well in advance; you’ll get them every year. There is also another thin g that I think you should know. He wrote a special little card...he did this years ago.”“Then,should ever, I find out that he’s no longer here. That’s the card...that should be sent to you the following year.” She thanked him and hung up the phone, her tea rs now flowing hard. Her fingers shaking, she slowly reached to get the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note.Then,as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote:” Hello my love, I know it’s been a year since I was gone. I h ope it hasn’t been too hard for you to overcome.I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very real. If it was the other way, I know how I would feel. The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life. I loved you more than words can say. You were t he perfect wife.”“You were my friend and lover; you satisfied my every need. I know it’s only been a year, but please try not to grieve. I want you to be happy, even when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be sent to you for years.”“When yo u get these roses, think of all the happiness that we had together, and how both of us were blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will.But,my love, you must go on; you have some living still.”“Please...try to find happiness, while living ou t your days. I know it is not easy, but I hope you find s ome ways. The roses will come every year, and they will only stop when your door’s not answered, when the florist stops to knock. He will come five times that day, in case you have gone out. But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt. To take the roses to the place, where I’ve instructed him, and place them where we are, together once again.”14.How did Rose feel when she received roses a year after her husband’s death?()A. Surprised and disappointed.B. Happy but confused.C. Proud but frightened.D. Sad and puzzled.15.What can we know about Rose’s husband when he was alive?()A. He knew his wife loved roses more than himself.B. He preferred to make arrangements ahead of time.C. He gave his wife a pleasant surprise every Valentine’s Day.D. He was so busy that he had to order roses in advance each year.16.The underlined word “grieve” (Paragraph 6) is closest in meaning toA. kill yourselfB. feel deep sorrowC. marry againD. buy roses17.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Roses for RoseB. Be My ValentineC. An Unexpected GiftD.A Loving Couple(D)Trusting in the Kindness of StrangersWhile driving from my home on the long way to work I noticed a car in front of me had a wobbly (摇摆的) wheel. It was clear that the wheel had been changed recently and had not been fixed correctly. On a slow road this would not present much of a problem, but I knewthe route and knew a motorway (高速公路) was coming soon where the traffic would move much faster and would be very dangerous as the wheel could come off at that speed.I was driving a large jeep at the time and the car in front was a small to mid-sized car driven by a lady on her own.So as I tried to flash my lights and wave her to pull over.I was worried that looking in her mirror she would see a lone man chase her down in a jeep waving frantically for her to pull over on this side of the road.Thankfully she trusted more in the good nature of people and pulled over where I could explain the problem.She confirmed the wheel was changed only the night before and said she would pull in to the next garage before the motorway where they would have the tools to fix the wheel correctly.My belief is that the act of kindness was hers and not mine. How so?Well,it was her who chose to trust in the possibility that people are good over the belief that bad things come from being waved down to the side of the road by strangers. I do preach (宣扬) caution and would have hesitated myself to pull over to the side should a stranger in a car wave me down.I will never know,thankfully,if the wheel may have come off and caused a serious accident but it was risky and at the very least might have caused damage to her car, so for thatI am glad I was able to wave her down. But I am more glad she trusted in a stranger.18.What was the author worried about?A. Being late for work.B. Being stuck in a traffic jam.C. Being trapped in a traffic accident.D. The bad condition of the car in front of him.19.The author flashed his lights because .A. it was quite dark that dayB. he was driving extremely fastC. he wanted to call the attention of the ladyD. he wanted to catch up with the car in front of him20.The underlined word“frantically”in the second paragraph probably means“”.A. politelyB. madlyC. casuallyD. calmly21.The lady would have her problem solved .A. with the author’s help immediatelyB. by driving slowlyC. before entering the motorwayD. with the tools the author gave her2015届高三英语限时训练(27)(A)语篇解读:在英国,越来越多的人会活到100岁,但是那些老寿星们将面临年老体弱、孤独等问题。

Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age give him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What’s more, life is always giving new things to the ch ild things that have lost their interest for old people because they are too well-known, but a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something or being punished for what he has wrongly done.When a young man starts to earn his living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents , he may go prison. If , however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.1. The main topic of this passage is ______________.A. pains of childrenB. pleasures of childrenC. pains and pleasures of grown-upsD. pains and pleasures2. According to Paragraph 2, the author thinks that _______________.A. life for a child is fairly easyB. a child is always loved whatever he doesC. if much is given to a child, he must do something in returnD. only children are interested in life3. The main idea of the passage is that _________________.A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some painsB. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hardC. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s lifeD. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life4. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss________.A. examples of successful young menB. how to build up one’s position in societyC. joys and pains of old peopleD. what to do when one has problems in lifeBBeijing is to close 34 illegal mines close to Yunju Temple and the Museum of Peking Man Ruins at Zhoukoudian this year.In addition, the city will shut down 700 mines and 145 sand and stone plants near sources of drinking water for local residents and 126 mines around major scenic spots.“The move aims to reduce pollution, crack down on illegal mining and ensure safety in production,” said Wang Dexue , an official in charge of safe production in the country.According to municipal statistics , there are more than 1,000 illegal mines in the eight suburban districts of Beijing, with a total workforce of 50,000.

Liz PayneBThe freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part-particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables-was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved t o be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 am to 1 p.m, rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries, the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft a nd round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的) promise, I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal- and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grov e Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where-luckily for me-I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.24. What did the author think of her winter life in New York?A. Exciting.B. Boring.C. Relaxing.D. Annoying.25.

The PompidouCentre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawingsand more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces,most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938,works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning,the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exitingthrough the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities (无限). “Fromthe infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out offocus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration (合作)with theMuseo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutionslike the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.28.

This evening, as on every Thursday night, psycholog ist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France’s favorite pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking cure”. Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings. It isn’t always easy. The customers-some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session-are quick to intellectualize (高谈阔论)，slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say ‘one feels,’ or ‘people think’,”Lehanne told them. “Say ‘I think,’ ‘Think me’.”A cafe society where no intellectualizing is allowed? It couldn’t s eem more un-French. But Lehanne’s psychology cafe is about more than knowing oneself: It’s trying to help the city’s troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours, a fast-food boom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home. Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.The city’s “psychology cafes”, which offer great comfort, are among the most popular places. Middle-aged homemakers, retirees, and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to Lehanne’s group just to learn to say what they feel. “There’s a strong need in Paris for communication,” says Maurice Frisch, a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. “People have few real friends.And they need to open up.” Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all over France. “If people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn’t exist,” she says. “If life weren’t a battle, people wouldn’t need a special place just to s peak.” But then, it wouldn’t be France.32.What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?A. Learn a new subjectB. Keep in touch with friends.C. Show off their knowledge.D. Express their true feelings.33. How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?A. They have bigger night crowds.B. They stay open for longer hours.C. They are less frequently visited.D. They start to serve fast food.34. What are theme cafes expected to do?A. Save the cafe business.B. Supply better drinks.C. Create more jobs.D. Serve the neighborhood.35. Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?A. They bring people true friendship.B. They give people spiritual support.C. They help people realize their dreams.D. They offer a platform for business links.第二节（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15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。

2015届高三英语限时训练(26)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.AWhere is it possible to drive from Rome to Moscow, Madrid, Paris, Vienna, and Stockholm without going to Europe? The answer is in the state of Maine!Throughout the United States there are many towns and cities that have been named after not only European cities but other countries as well, such as China, Poland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Just how many New World place names are recycled from the Old World names has never been tallied, but one researcher found forty-one Londons, fifty-six Berlins, twenty-four Dublins, thirty-two Athenses, and twenty-seven Moscows, among others! ks**5u Reasons for European place names differ. Some were in memory of settlers’ former homes, others in honor of historic events. Founded in 1818 by John Coffee, Robert Beaty, John D. Carroll, and John Read, Athens is one of the oldest incorporated cities in the State of Alabama. The town was first called Athenson, and the name was then shortened to Athens, after the ancient city in Greece. More interestingly, some names were given by mistake. For instance, the people of Moscow, Kansas, wanted to their city to follow the name of the explorer Moscoso. They shortened his name to Mosco, and an official in Washington, thinking the Kansans couldn't spell, added a ‘W’.2. The word “tallied” (Line 4, Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to ________.A. builtB. believedC. addedD. visited3. What might have made the official in Washington change Mosco into Moscow?A. Moscow was a world-famous city name.B. He thought Moscoso would prefer Moscow.C. He believed Moscow was a far better name.D. He couldn't spell very well and made a mistake.4. The best title for the passage is ________.A. The Story of Moscow, KansasB. American Cities and Thei r NamesC. Interesting NamesD. Old World Place Names in AmericaBI live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such a splendid, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion.Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive e ffects end when the fun ends.I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”. But in memoir（回忆录）after memoir, they reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness.Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage, if he’s honest, and he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment, for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they can. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t kno w any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating（解放性的）realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.5. We can learn from the passage that____________.A. fun creates long-lasting satisfactionB. fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happinessC. happiness is lasting whereas fun is short-livedD. fun that is long-standing may lead to happiness7. In the author’s opinion, marriage____________.A. affords greater funB. leads to raising childrenC. indicates duty and devotionD. usually ends up in pain9. If one gets the meaning of the true sense of happiness, he will____________.A. stop playing games and joking with othersB. keep himself with his familyC. give a free hand to moneyD. use his time to increase happinessCEveryone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Cumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury (陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court. It was, said the judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Cumming. When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking.Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don't tell my mother.”“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly.“And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee pack your things. We'll go to see him.”She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,”she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.So he said. “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken care of.How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?” ks**5u The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know.”11. Paddy cried because he thought ______________.A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishmentB. Frank should have told Fee what had happenedC. what had hap pened to Frank was killing FeeD. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character13. Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”B. “Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants.”C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”D. “The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”14. What is Fee's probable relationship with Frank and Paddy?A. Son and brother.B. Son and husband.C. Brother and lover.D. Lover and husband.DPsychology has a new application in the field of medicine. Many doctors, together with their patients, are looking for alternative methods of treatment of physical problems. In large hospitals, modern therapy（疗法） seems to focus on the physical disease. Patients may feel they are treated like broken machines. Some doctors have recognized this as a problem. They are now using psychological therapy, in which the patient is working with the doctors against the disease with the help of medicine. The patient does not wait for the medicine and treatment to cure hi m or her, but instead the patient joins in the fight.The doctor knows that a disease affects a patient's body physically. The body of the patient changes because of the disease. He is not only physically affected, but also has an emotional response to the disease. Because his mind is affected, his attitude and behavior change. The medical treatment might cure the patient's physical problems, but the patient's mind must fight the emotional ones. For example, the studies of one doctor, Carl Simonton, M. D., have shown that a typical cancer patient has predictable attitudes. She typically feels depressed, upset, and angry. Her constant depression makes her acts unfriendly toward her family, friends, doctors, and nurses. Such attitudes and behaviors prevent recovery. Therefore, a doctor's treatment must help the patient change that. Simonton's method emphasizes treatment of the “whole” patient.The attitude of a cancer patient receiving radiation therapy, an X-ray treatment, can become more positive. The physician who is following Simonton's psychological treatment plan suggests that the patient imagine that he or she can see the tumor（肿瘤） in the body. In the mental picture, the patient "sees" a powerful beam of radiation like a million bullets of energy. The patient imagines the beam hitting the tumor cells and causing them to shrink. For another cancer patient, Dr. Simonton asks him to imagine the medicine going from the stomach into the bloodstream and to the cancer cells. The patient imagines that the medicine is like an army fighting the diseased cells and sees the cancer cells gradually dying and his blood carry away the dead cells. Both the medical therapy and the patient's positive attitude fight the disease.Doctors are not certain why this mental therapy works. However, this use of psychology does help some patients because their attitudes about themselves change. They become more confident because they use the power within their own minds to help stop the disease.Another application of using the mind to help cure disease is the use of suggestion therapy. At first, the doctor helps the patient to concentrate d eeply. The patient thinks only about one thing. He becomes so unaware of other things around him that he is asleep, or rather in a trance（催眠状态）. Then the physician makes “a suggestion” to the patient about the medical problem. The patient's mind responds to the suggestion even after the patient is no longer in the trance. In this way, the patient uses his mind to help his body respond to treatment. ks**5uDoctors have learned that this use of psychology is helpful for both adults and children. For example, physicians have used suggestion to help adults deal with the strong pain of some disease. Furthermore, sometimes the adult patient worries about her illness so much that the anxiety keeps her from getting well. The right suggestions may help the patient to stop being anxious. Such treatment may help the patient with a chronic（慢性的）diseases. Asthma （哮喘） is an example of a chronic disorder. Asthma is a disease that causes the patient to have difficulty in breathing. The patient starts to cough and sometimes has to fight to get the air that he or she needs. Psychology can help relieve the symptoms of this disorder. After suggestion therapy, the asthma patient breathes more easily.Physicians have learned that the psychological method is very useful in treating children. Children respond quickly to the treatment because they are fascinated by it. For example, Dr. Basil R. Collision has worked with 121 asthmatic children in Sydney, Australia, and had good results. Twenty-five of the children had Excellent results. They were ableto breathe more easily, and they did not need medication. Another forty-three were also helped. The symptoms of the asthma occurred less frequently, and when they did, they were not as strong. Most of the children also felt better about themselves. Doctors have also used suggestion to change habits like nail-biting, thumb-sucking, and sleep-related problems.Many professional medical groups have accepted the medical use of psychology and that psychology has important applications in medicine.15. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. How to use the mind against disease.B. How modern therapy focuses on the dis ease.C. Responses from the medical world.D. How suggestion therapy benefits adults and children.16. How does psychological therapy work?A. The patient waits for the medicine and treatment to cure him.B. The doctor uses medical treatment to cure the patient's problems.C. The doctor, the medicine, and the patient work together to fight disease.D. The patient uses his mind to cure himself.17. What can we learn from the studies of Carl Simonton, M. D.?A. The medical treatment can cure the patient's mental disease.B. The treatment of a patient by treating the body and the mind is necessary.C. The mental treatment is more important than medical treatment.D. Few patients have emotional response to the disease.18. The use of psychological therapy is helpful to some patients in that .A. the medical effect is better with psychological therapy than without itB. the patients can see a powerful beam of radiation hitting their tumor cellsC. the patients' attitudes towards themselves have changedD. the patients are easy to accept the methods the doctors use to treat them19. It can be learned from the passage that suggestion therapy cannot be used to .A. help adults deal with the strong pain of some diseasesB. help the patients with chronic diseasesC. help change some bad habitsD. help cure patients of insomnia（失眠症）20. According to the passage, which of the following remains unknown so far?A. The value of mental therapy.B. The effectiveness of suggestion therapy.C. The working principle of suggesti on therapy.D. The importance of psychology in medical treatment.2015届高三英语限时训练(26)1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC2015届高三英语限时训练(26)1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC2015届高三英语限时训练(26)1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC2015届高三英语限时训练(26) 1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC2015届高三英语限时训练(26) 1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC2015届高三英语限时训练(26) 1-15 CAD/CCD/CAB/ACBCDC。

2015届高三英语限时训练(22)阅读理解（限时35分钟）AI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签）everything.I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation，I could tell right away her grandma was seriously il l. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬)under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, Methinks. ”Kat e and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together： giving in, cleaning up and holding on.36.What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.37.The author tidied up the room most probably because .A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so38.How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.39.What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesCThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid_we simply weigh too much， and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicas，a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we，d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’But fortunately there is an alternative ：corn flour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot)，you can create a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick Liquid of corn flour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink and take a shower afterward!44.Walking on water hasn’t become a reality mainly because humans______.A. are not interested in itB. have biological limitationsC. have not invented proper toolsD. are afraid to make an attempt45.What do we know about Basilicas from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.46.What is the function of the corn flour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.47.What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. t is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.DOne moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed.I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire crackling, snapping, trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again一the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork (交错）of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹)look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant’s stomach, the forest was silent.Gradually，the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant’s neck；there was a soft part，free of wrinkles and hairs，behind her ear.This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett，although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mount ains, Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts (出没处），a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still, I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could h ave gone to a zo o. After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty； tracking them can make you aware of something more.48.Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?A. The elephant stopped.B.A spotted deer called.C. The elephant seized a branch.D. The forest was silent for a while.49.The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by .A. describing various soundsB. comparing different animalsC. listing different activitiesD. introducing various plants50.What does the underlined part “to sense the aura” most probably mean?A. To see the diversity.B. To enjoy the scenery.C. To feel the atmosphere.D. To experience the freedom.51.How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?A. Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B. It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.C. It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D. The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.EIt’s generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes. They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment. They pay S5 for a caramel brul6e latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It’s undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情），but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern, by observing our own behavior. We can be strangers to ourselves. If we knewour own minds，why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes. Actually，we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are. Moreover, we don’t just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character we infer characters that we ren’t there before. Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't. Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us. We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do，though it may not be in compliance (符合)with their true desires. Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegufs advice：“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be. ’52.According to the passage, personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to________.A. determine one’s behaviorB. reflect one’s tasteC. influence one’s surroundingsD. result from one’s habits53.Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with?A. The return of a wallet can indicate one’s honestyB. A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C. One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D. One buys latte out of true love of coffee.54.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A. We fail to realize our inner dispositions.B. We can be influenced by outside pressures.C. Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D. Our characters can shape our social relationships.55. What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A. Personalities and attitudes.B. Preferences and habits.C. Behavior and personalities.D. Attitudes and preferences.【考点】考察社会生活类阅读【文章大意】作者在本文中叙述了自己的室友Kate是一个非常有条理的人，而我是一个很没有规矩意识的人，东西总是乱放。

2015届高三英语限时训练(21)说明文阅读（2014江苏）CMost damagingly, anger weakens a person’s ability to think clearly and keep control over his behavior. The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.Not everyone experiences anger in the same way; what angers one person may amuse another. The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces. In contemporary culture, physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated. We no longer regard duels (决斗) as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one person’s awareness of insulting behavior on the part of another.Anger can be identified in the brain, where the electrical activity changes. Under most conditions EEG (脑电图) measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal (额叶前部) areas. Behaviorally this corresp onds to the general even-handed disposition (意向) that most of us possess most of the time. But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren’t balanced and, as a result of this, we’re likely to react. And our behavioral response to anger is different from our response to other emotions, whether positive or negative.Most positive emotions are associated with approach behavior: we move closer to people we like. Most negative emotions, in contrast, are associated with avoidance behavior: we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us anxious. But anger is an exception to this pattern. The angrier we are, the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger. This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as of endive anger: the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger. This approach-and-confront behavior is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry (不对称) of EEG activity. Interestingly, this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy (同感) towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response. In defensive anger, in contrast, the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and the angry person feels helpless in the face of the anger-inspiring situation.61. The “duels” example in Paragraph 2 proves that the expression of anger ________.A. usually has a biological basisB. varies among peopleC. is socially and culturally shapedD. influences one’s thinking and evaluation62. What changes can be found in an angry brain? ZXXKA. Balanced electrical activity can be spotted.B. Unbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas.C. Electrical activity corresponds to one’s behavior.D. Electrical activity agrees wi th one’s disposition.63. Which of the following is typical of offensive anger?A. Approaching the source of anger.B. Trying to control what is disliked.C. Moving away from what is disliked.D. Feeling helpless in the face of anger.64. What is the key message of the last paragraph?A. How anger differs from other emotions.B. How anger relates to other emotions.C. Behavioral responses to anger.D. Behavioral patterns of anger.(2012江苏)BDeputy Agriculture Secretary Kathleen Merriam sees an epidemic (流行病) sweeping across Americas farmland. It has little to do with the usual challenges, such as flood, rising fuel prices and crop-eating insects. The country's fanners are getting older, and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place. National agricultural census (普查) figures show that the fastest-growing group of fanners is the part over 65. Merriam is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2012 statistics are completed.Merrigan, a former college professor, is making stop s at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture. Aside fromtrying to stop the graying of .America's farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No.1 on a list of "useless" college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country.“There could n't be anything that's more incorrect," Merriam said. "We know that there aren't enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said.“I truly believe we're at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time record high, and global supplies are at all-time record lows," said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. "Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture. "The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers' Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers. Ryan Best, president of Future Fanners of America, has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21 -year-old Best hopes his message-that this is a new time in agriculture-will motivate the next generation to turn around the s tatistics. Never before have we had the innovations ( 创新) in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever been,” he said. “there’s really a place for everybody to fit in.”59. What is the new challenge to American agriculture?A. Fewer and older farmers.B. Higher fuel prices.C. More natural disasters.D. Lower agricultural output.60.Why is Merriam visiting universities across the country?A. To draw federal agriculture officials' attention.B. To select qualified agriculture graduates.C. To clarify a recent blog posting.D. To talk more students into farming careers61. According to Matt Rush, American agriculture will provide opportunities for younger people because__________.A. the government will cover production costsB. global food supplies will be even lowerC. investment in agriculture will be profitableD.America will increase its food export62. What do the underlined words "to turn around the statistics" in the last paragraph mean?A. To re-analyze the result of the national census.B. To increase agricultural production.C. To bring down the average age of farmers.D. To invest more in agriculture.(2012江苏)CMedical drugs sometimes cause more damage than they cure. One solution to this problem is to put the drugs inside a capsule, protecting them from the body—and the body from them—until they can be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger(引发) this release, including changing temperature, acidity, and so on. But triggers can come with their own risks—burns, for example. Now, researche rs in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining near-infrared light (NIR,近红外线) on the drug in the capsule.The idea of using light to liberate the drug in the capsule isn't new. Researchers around the globe have developed polymers (聚合物) and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb cither ultraviolet (UV,紫外线) or visible light. But tissues also readily absorb UV and visible light, which means the drug release can be triggered only near the skin, where the light can reach the capsule. NIR light largely passes through tissues, so researchers have tried to use it as a trigger. But few compounds(化合物) absorb NIR well and go through chemical changes.That changed last year when Adah Almutairi, a chemist at the University of California, San Diego, reported that she and her colleagues had designed a polymer that breaks down when it absorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIR-absorbing group called o-nitrobenzyl (ONB). When they catch the light, ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to its breakdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber, and it could be poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer.So Almutairi and her colleagues reported creating a new material for capsules that's even better. This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的) components that make it highly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols, they cap each reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light, the reactive groups are exposed and break the long polymer into two sh ort chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown, potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. What's more, Almutairi says, Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells.63. According to the passage, which of the following could be the best trigger?A. Temperature change.B. NIR light.C. Acidity change.D. UV light.64. Why in ONB unsatisfactory?A. It breaks down when it absorbs NIR light.B. It falls off the polymer and triggers drug release.C. It has not come onto the market up till now.D. It is not effective enough and could be poisonous.65. Which word can be used to complete the following process of changes?A. ProtectedB. formedC. exposedD. combined（2011江苏）CAccording to the US government, wind farms off the Pacific coast could produce 900 gig watts of electricity every year. Unfortunately, the water there is far too deep for even the tallest windmills(see picture)to touch bottom. An experiment under way off the coast of Norway,however,could help put them anywhere.The project, called Hywind,is the world’s first large-scale deepwater wind turbine(涡轮发电机).Although it uses a fairly standard 152-ton,2.3-megawatt turbine,Hywind represents totally new technology. The turbine will be fixed 213 feet above the water on a floating spar(see picture),a technology Hywind’s creator, the Norwegian company StatoilHydro,has developed recently. The steel spar, which is filled with stones and g oes 328 feet below the sea surface, will be tied to the ocean floor by three cable(缆索)；these will keep the spar stable and prevent the turbine from moving up and down in the waves.Hywind’s stability(稳定性)in the cold and rough sea would prove that even the deepest corners of the ocean are suitable for wind power. If all goes according to plan, the turbine will start producing electricity six miles off the coast of southwestern Norway as early as September.To produce electricity on a large scale, a commercial wind farm will have to use bigger turbines than Hywind does, but it’s difficult enough to balance such a large turbine so high on a floating spar in the middle of the ocean. To make that turbine heavier, the whole spar’s to design a new kind of wind turbine, one whose gearb ox(变速箱) sits at sea level rather than behind the blades (see picture )Hywind is a test run, but the benefits for perfecting floating wind-farm technology could be ext remely large. Out at sea, the wind is often stronger and steadier than close to shore, where all existing offshore windmills are planted. Deep-sea farms are invisible from land, which helps overcome the windmill-as-eyesore objection. If the technology catches on, it will open up vast areas of the planet’s surface to one of the best low-carbon power sources available.63. The Hywind project uses totally new technology to ensure the stability of _______.A. the cables which tie the spar to the ocean floorB. the spar which is floating in deep-sea waterC. the blades driven by strong and steady sea windD. the stones filled in the spar below the sea surface64.
