You looked so happy!After losing two grandparents within the past year, I have taken some time to reflect on what is most important. I want to let you know what a positive influence you have been on me. I am the person I am because of you.I remember being on your farm a lot when I was younger. I remember the projects you planned for us. We painted rocks to represent our family members. We made doll clothes out of colourful socks. We made many “playhouse” in the woods.We learned that if you left a bucket of soybeans in the rain, you would soon have a bucket of growing beans. We learned that if we helped pick the strawberries in the morning, we’d have them on our ice cream in the afternoon. We learned that some plants have funny names, like the elephant ear plant. We learned that you could make do with what you had. We learned that making things out of paper and cardboard was more fun than what came inside the packaging. We learned it was OK to get dirty, but Grandma would wash us up before Mom came.You once made models of everyone’s houses, which made me want to be an architect. Another time, you made quilts for all of the grandkids. I still use mine every night. The edgy had worn out. But you taught me how to fix it.I love and respect you. You are always patient, with a quiet determination.Grandma, thank you for everything you have taught me. I hope that I am able to pass on all these memories and skills to my children and grandchildren.Love alwaysKelly56.

Kelly wrote this letter mainly to _______.A. send her grandma best wishes for ChristmasB. show love and respect for her grandmaC. recall her happy life on the farmD. ask her grandma for helpBOn a February day during an unusually mild winter, I found myself missing the snowy beauty. I enjoyed the feeling that comes from watching snow fall gently from heaven while I’m cozy inside with a good fire burning in the stove. But ther e were more serious concerns, like the lack if rainfall making our woods more accessible to summer forest fires. Local ski fields and hotels, all dependent on a snowy season, felt sorry for vacant lifts, empty restaurants and unused snowmobiles.Then I happened to see three little robin(知更鸟)fly into our yard. What were they doing here? West of us, in the Willamette Valley, wild flowers burst this time of year. But here in central Oregon, even if a groundhog(土拨鼠)had wanted to appear, it couldn’t have broken through the frozen earth. And yet, these robins had arrived.Their presence brought me a flow of happiness. It felt like a celebration as I dug into my leg of birdseed and spread a handful on the ground. Above me, the deep blue sky was cloudless, perfectly quiet but for some smoke from a neighbour’s chimney. The lively could make the air fresh and clean.My robin jumped lightly toward the seed. My soul jumped with them, feeling equally carefree. Caught up in the moment of spring fever, I checked out snowless flower beds. To my delight, I spotted a green branch sticking out through the brown soil.Despite the cold, It wasn’t ready to go back inside, Just a short meeting with those robins had renewed my spirit. The next day I would return to my outdoor work with a cheerful heart and a hopeful eye for these signs of spring.60. The author missed a snowy winter because snow could______.A. prevent forest firesB. boom his businessC. promise an early springD. bring hima good feeling61. The author felt happy when finding_____.A. the sky was deep blue with cloudsB. three little robins flew into his yardC. wild flowers burst in the Willamette ValleyD. a grounding appeared through thefrozen earth62. We can infer from the passage that the author______.A. would enjoy wild flowers the next dayB. though winter was already overC. longed for the coming of springD. loved robins the mostCCooking Kills Four Million People a YearPolluted airborne particle(大气悬浮颗粒)kill 7 million people a year, reports the World Health Organization.That news may not come as a surprise to anyone who has seen images of chimneys in Beijing, Delhi or Mexico. But those factories—or even the jammed roadways of modern cities—are not the biggest killer. Each year, some 4.3million people die earlier than they should because of polluted air inside their homes, says the WHO.What’s causing the air inside people’s homes to be so poisonous that it kills around 11, 000 people a day? Stoves. “ Having an open fire in yo ur kitchen is like burning 400 cigarettes an hour.” says Kirk Smith, a professor at the University of California Berkeley, whose research suggests that household air pollution from cooking killed between 3.5 million and 4million people in 2013.Not all st oves causes this kind of harm. The ones Smith’s talking about are those that the 3 billion people in the developing world use for heat and cooking, which burn solid fuels such as wood, coal, or crop waste instead of gas. The smoke from those fires produces harmful fine particles and carbon monoxide into homes. Poor ventilation then prevents that smoke from escaping, raising fine particle levels 100 times higher than the limits that the WHO considers acceptable.Breathing this air day in day out eventually causes lots of disease; more than a third of the 4.3million die of a smoke, while a quarter die of heart disease. And around one-third of annual lung disease deaths worldwide are due to waste from coal stoves. Exposure lends to be extremely harmful for the people who spend the most time around the fire—usually women and young children. In fact, the WHO reports that household air pollution almost doubles the risk for childhood lung disease.63. According to Kirk Smith’s research, _______.A. factories are the biggest killer worldwide nowadaysB. burning 400 cigarettes an hour is extremely dangerousC. household air pollution from cooking is surprisingly harmfulD. some 4.3 million people die earlier each year than they should64. What should be the deadly killer in a household kitchens?A. Solid fuelsB. Goal stovesC. Pour gasD. Cooking smoke65. The underlined word “ventilation” in paragraph means______A. airingB. cookingC. burningD. cooling66. The author intent to tell people______A. how to avoid polluted air in their homesB. to stop cooking in the household kitchenC. to guard against household pollution from cookingD. how to prevent childhood lung diseases in householdDYour dilemma has two aspects: your employer demands loyalty, but you want to help another working woman. The question is whether you can act properly towards both. Your personal view about the unfair maternity policy makes it complicated. In the United States, paid maternity leave(带薪产假)is not an automatic benefit guaranteed by the government. Even unpaid leave is only permitted for a limited period with certain working hours.It’s understandable that you feel such divided loyalties, said Gretchen Zetoony, a licensed clinical expert in Virginia. “On the other hand, you want to be careful not to provide information that might discomfort your employer in a negotiation; on the other hand, it’s natural to feel sympathetic toward someone in a similar situation. Particularly if you see the company’s policy as unfair.” She said.Before you give advice on negotiating a better maternity-leave package, remember to be careful with what you say. “If you are nervous that your employer could learn you had advised her, that should be a guide for you that you may wander into a questionable area”. Zetoony said.What happens if your colleagues discover that this applicant benefits simply because of your advice. That may not be formal discrimination but it might creat a bad feeling among colleagues who are not working mothers and who didn’t join yourorganization armed with insider tips.” In this case, the risk isn’t as much as about betraying your employer or your fellow women as possibly creating conflict in the workplace if colleagues notice that you helped an applicant gain an advantage because you share some personal characteristics.” Zetoony said. If that happens, and you find that your colleagues are whispering about you, or openly complaining, address the situation with a calm sit-down. Explain that you felt you had to help this woman pass her away through the organization’s human-resources maze, and that you would do the same for anyone who asked you for advice.There might be a better way to help women negotiate maternity leave than advising them, Consider getting together with colleagues who also care about this issue to advocate for bettering family leave policies within your organization, Zetoony suggests. The more employees who join you, the more likely management are to listen, It is also applicable in other components of an employment offer where you will face such a dilemma.67. One may fall into a dilemma mainly because______A. he thinks the maternity policy unfairB. his employer breaks the maternity policyC. the US government protects his employerD. his woman colleague asks for a paid leave68. According to Zetoony, your nervousness might lead to _______A. your employer’s forgivenessB. an even more embarrassing situationC. your employer’s sympathyD. an exposure to your characteristics69. From the passage, in a similar dilemma, you’d better_______A. talk to your employer directlyB. put forward more applicable solutionsC. give your colleagues a helping hand sincerelyD. gather more colleagues to work out better policies70. What’s the author’s attitude towards maternity leave?A. SupportiveB. NeutralC. NegativeD. Critical第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，共10分)SelfieSocial media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie. It refers to a picture of yourself, usually shared on my social networkingwebsite.71 Some selfie are extreme close-ups, and others show part of an arm held straight outward. A few of them even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror.Everyone takes selfies, but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend. Young people are relatively behavior digital users. They are interested in staying connected to their friends. 72 .There are also kinds of psychological factors driving people to take a selfie and upload it to a social networking site. 73 A quick and easy way to attract other’s attention is to get “likes” and comments from friends.

If that means unloading as many selfies as possible, then so be it. It’s fun, and it’s a cool way to sort of document your own life.Finally, there are things to be mindful of when you’re posting.

2020-2021学年北京市海淀区教师进修学校附属实验学校高三英语二模试题及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AObesity (肥胖症) is becoming a problem in our busy society, and almost one in three American adults is now considered to be obese. Children obesity is alsoat an all-time high.Obesity means being very overweight. If you are obese, you have too much bodyfat. If you eat more food than your body can use, this will make you put on weight. Food that your body does not need will be stored as fat by your body.The following are the major factors that increase the risk of obesity.What you eat plays a major role in weight gain. Eating a lot of fast food such as hamburgers, sweet drinks, ice creams and other sweet food can increase the risk of becoming obese.If you do not do enough exercise, you will put on weight as the food you eat is not being used to make energy for physical activities.The chances of you being obese are greater if your parents are obese.There are many psychological factors that cause people to eat too much. People who are worried, unhappy or bored will often eat to make themselves feel better. This is known as comfort eating.Age is another factor, as you tend (趋于) to be less active when you get older. When you get older, you need to eat less, and if you do not eat less, you will put on weight. Obesity can cause many health problems such as heart problems, high blood pressure and many other serious medical conditions.1. The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means that ____.A. obesity does not do harm to health.B. there are more obese children than before.C. all the American children are obese.D. there are less obese children in the USA.2. According to the passage, there are ____ major factors that increase the risk of obesity.A. threeB. fourC. fiveD. six3. What will the writer most probably talk about after the last paragraph?A. How to avoid obesity.B. How to live in the busy USA.C. What illnesses are caused by obesity.D. How doctors treat heart problems.BIn life，once on a path，we tend to follow it，for better or worse.What's sad is that even if it's the latter，we often accept it anyway because we are so used to the way things are that wed don't even recognize that they could be different This is a phenomenon psychologist call functional fixedness.This classic experiment will give you an idea of howitworks and a sense of whether you may have fallen into the same trap: People are given a box of tacks (大头钉) and some matches and asked to find a way to attach a candle to a wall so that it burns properly.Typically, the subjects try tacking the candle to the wall or lighting it to fix it with melted wax. The psychologists had, of course, arranged it so that neither of these obvious approaches would work. The tacks are too short, and the paraffin (石蜡) doesn't stick to the wall. So how can you complete the task? The successful technique is to use the tack box as a candle-holder. You empty it, tack it to the wall. and stand the candle inside it. To think of that, you have to look beyond the box's usual role as a receptacle just for tacks and re-imagine it serving an entirely new purpose. That is difficult because we all suffer to one degree or another from functional fixedness.The inability to think in new ways affects people in every corner of society. The political theorist Hannah Arendt coined the phrase“frozen thoughts”to describe deeply held ideas that we no longer question but should. In Arendt's eyes, the self- content reliance on such accepted “truths”also made people blind to ideas that didn't fit their worldview, even when there was plenty of evidence for them.Frozen thinking has nothing to do with intelligence, she said,“It can be found in highly intelligent people.”4. What does the underlined word“it”in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The experiment.B. Functional fixedness.C. The path.D. The thinking.5. Which way is hard to think of to complete the task?A. Tacking the candle to the wall.B. Fixing the candle with melted wax.C. Using the tack box as a candle-holder.D. Lighting the candle tostand it.6. Which of the following statements will Hannah Arendt agree with?A. People should question.B. We should be used to the way things are.C. People shouldn't accept the idea that doesn't fit their worldview.D. The smarter people are，the more open to the new things they are.7. What's the passage mainly about?A. An interesting experimentB. A psychological phenomenon.C. A theory to be proved.D. The opinion of Hannah Arendt.CThere is an old Chinese proverb that states “One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade,” and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and a daughter is sometimes confusing. The relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include responsibilities and unconditional love, whichprecludemothers and daughters from being best friends.Marina, 27 years old, said, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don’t tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common, which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining(保持) and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of work and technology, which may bring them even closer together.Best friends may ormay not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse; the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren’t speaking. Sometimes this is not an equal relationship. Daughters don’t always feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. But mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable byany other. Mothers always “trump(胜过)” friends.8. What does the underlined word “preclude” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. differ.B. benefit.C. prevent.D. change.9. What can we learn from what Marina said?A. Best friends will not spend money on her wedding.B. Best friends will not remind her of important issues in life.C. Her mother is wiser on account of her age.D. Her mother is definitely not her best friend.10. Why can a mother and a daughter build a even closer relationship today?A. Because they share advanced technology with each other.B. Because they work together to support the whole family.C. Because they experience the same values and traditions.D. Because they have common experience in life and work.11. What is the text mainly about?A. How to build a good mother and daughter relationship.B. A mother-daughter relationship is irreplaceable.C. Mothers want to be daughters’ friends.D. A daughter is a mother’s best friend.DCompared to dogs, cats are often considered to be aloof（冷漠的）with respect to their human owners. It is usual for them to be indifferent（无动于衷的）when humans calltheir names. Are we sure that they don’t understand human voices at all?A recent study published in the journal of Scientific Reports suggests that we’ve been fooled. Japanese scientists found that cats can recognize their names if their owners regularly use them. In the study, scientists recruited 78 domestic cats. They played recordings of voices of their owners saying five words: the first four words were random nouns thatresembledtheir names while the final word was the cat’s name. Then they observed the cats’ responses, if there were any.Most of cats moved their ears or heads when they heard their names, while they made no response to other words. That suggested, “cats were paying attention to you, what you say and what you do,” John Bradshaw, an expert on human-animal interactions（互动）at the University of Bristol, UK, told The Times. “And cats were just asgood as dogs at learning,” she added.In the study, when people called their names, cats often associated (联系) the words with rewards, such as food or play, or with “punishments” such as having a bath or going to the vet . This made cats sensitive (敏感的) to words. After the cats had been called several times, they could respond to the words. But the scientists added that while dogs have evolved（进化）to follow their owners’ orders, cats have not. Although cats appear to be distant, they do have special relationships with their owners.According to study co-author Atsuko Saito, cats have evolved not to show their emotions as a survival method. One example is illness, which they tend to hide because “in the wild, no one can rescue them” and predators (捕食性动物) are more likely to pay attention to them, Saito explained.However, technology may help bridge the communication gap between cats and us. There are now mobile apps available to explain what their meows mean. So, the next time you hear “meow, meow”,your cat may be telling you: “Hi, you haven’t cleaned my litter box recently.”12. What did the recent study find about cats?A. Cats can recognize their names.B. Cats are cleverer than dogs.C. Cats learn more slowly than dogs.D. Cats are willing to follow orders.13. What does the underlined word“resembled”in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. were limited toB. were different fromC. were similar toD. were away from14. Why do cats appear distant to their human owners?A. They associate words with punishments.B. They want to protect themselves from harm.C. They are not sensitive to the human voice.D. They don’t pay much attention to their surroundings.15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. It is difficult to understand cats’ meows.B. Interaction with your cats is very important.C. Cats do have good relationships with their owners.D. We may know cats better with the help of technology.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Their twins—a girl and a boy—were born two minutes apart and 14 weeks premature, weighing just over two pounds each. Doctors had tried to save the boy for 20 minutes but saw no improvement. His heartbeat was nearly gone,and he'd stopped breathing. The baby had just moments to live."I saw him gasp （喘息）, but the doctor said it was no use, " Kate told the Daily Mail five years later.

In an effort to cherish her last minutes with the tiny boy, Kate asked to hold him."I wanted to meet him, and for him to know us, " Kate told Today . "We'd resigned ourselves to the fact that we were going to lose him, and we were just trying to make the most of those last, precious moments."Kate unwrapped the boy, whom the couple had already named J amie, from his hospital blanket and asked David to take his shirt off and join them in bed. The first-time parents wanted their son to be as warm as possible and hoped the skin-to-skin contact would improve his condition. They also talked to him."We were trying to persuade him to stay, " Kate told the Daily Mail . "We explained his name and that he had a twin that he had to look out for and how hard we had tried to have him."Then something miraculous happened. Jamie gasped again—and then he started breathing. Finally, he reached for his father's finger.The couple's lost boy had made it."We're the luckiest people in the world, " David told Today .Eight years later, Jamie and his sister, Emily, are happy and healthy. The couple only recently told the kids the story of their birth. "Emily burst into tears, " Kate said. "She was really upset, and she kept hugging Jamie. This whole experience makes you cherish them more."What can we learn about the newborn babies?The boy's heart had stopped beating.The boy was 2 minutes older than the girl.The twins were born 14 weeks before the due date.The twins were expected to live for only 20 minutes.When the couple knew they would lose the boy, they .begged the doctor to save himtook his shirt off and then put him in bedwrapped him with his blanket to keep him warmtalked to him and made close physical contact with himWhat's the best title for the passage?7.It's common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo daVinci's most famous painting seems to look back at observers,following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an anglethat's 15.4 degrees off to the observer's right—well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, "She's not looking at you." This is somewhat ironic, because the entire phenomenon of a person's gaze （凝视）in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the "Mona Lisa effect" . That effect is absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person's gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.This is important for human interaction with on-screen characters. If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person on-screen is looking at him or her, you don't cut the gaze of the character to that side—surprisingly, doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn't looking at anyone in the room at all.Instead, you keep the gaze straight ahead.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars（虚拟头像） when Horstmann took a long look at the "Mona Lisa" and realized she wasn't looking at him.To make sure it wasn't just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the "Mona Lisa" on a computer screen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected Mona Lisa's gaze. To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa's gaze as she looked at the viewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study. Consistently, the researchers found, participants judged that the woman in the "Mona Lisa" portrait was not looking straight at them, but slightly off to their right.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer?Horstmann isn't sure. It's possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first coined the term "Mona Lisa effect" just thought it was a cool name.A.B.C.D.A. B.C.

Not surprisingly, they have found that people blessed with innate conscientiousness, meaning that they are organized and predictable,typically eat better and live longer than people who are disorderly. They also tend to have immaculate offices.A.messyB.tidyC.terriblefortable（1）（2）What has been less clear is whether neat environments can produce good habits even in those who aren't necessarily innately conscientious. To find out, researchers at the University of Minnesota conducted a series of experiments. In the first experiment,they randomly assigned a group of college-age students to spend time in two office spaces, one of which was very neat, the other wildly cluttered （乱堆） with papers and other work-related stuff. The students spent their time filling out questionnaires unrelated to the study. After 10 minutes, they were told they could leave with an apple or a chocolate bar. Those students who sat in the orderly office were twice as likely to choose the apple as those who sat among the mess.A second experiment, however, found that working in chaos has its advantages, too.In this one, college students were placed in a messy or a neat office and asked to dream up new uses for Ping-Pong balls. Those in messy spaces generated ideas that were significantly more creative, according to two independent judges, than those in offices where stacks of papers and other objects were neatly arranged.The results were something of a surprise, says Dr. Vohs, the leader of the study. Few previous studies found much virtue in disorder. The broken window theory, proposed decades ago, holds that even slight disorder and neglect can encourage indifference and poor discipline.But in the study by Dr. Vohs, disordered offices encouraged originality and a search for novelty. In the final portion of the study, adults were given the choice of adding a health "boost" to their lunchtime smoothie that was labeled either "new" or "classic".The volunteers in the messy space were far more likely to choose the new one; those in the tidy office generally chose the classic version."Disorderly environments seem to inspire breaking free of tradition, " Dr. Vohs and her co-authors conclude in the study, "which can produce fresh insights."The implications of these findings are also practical. "My advice would be, if you need to think outside the box for a future project" , Dr. Vohs says, "Then let the clutter rise and free your imagination. But if your primary goal is to eat well or to go to the gym, pick up around your office first. By doing this, the naturally messy can acquire some of the discipline of the conscientious."The underlined word "immaculate" in paragraph 1 probably means .Which of the following can best explain the broken window theory?B.C.D.A.B.C.D.（3）A.B.C.D.（4）Misfortune may be an actual blessing.Bad news has wings.When a door shuts, a window opens.Which of the following will Dr. Vohs probably agree with?More virtue exists in organized people.Creativity results from tidiness and discipline.Disorderly surroundings help to create new ideas.Workers' good habits guarantee the success of a project.What can we conclude from the study results?The naturally neat people tend to be very creative.A messy office will cause quite low working efficiency.Environments can affect people's way of thinking and behavior.People's personalities are determined by their working environments.四、七选五（每题2分，共5题，计10分）9.Exam AnxietyHas this ever happened to you? You've been studying hard for your midterm, but when you walk into your exam, your mind goes blank, your heart races fast, you get sweaty palms and find it hard to breathe. 1Everyone feels stressed during exams. Usually, it results from a fear of failure, lack of adequate preparation time and bad experiences taking tests in the past. This is normal and often helps you work harder, think faster and generally improve your performance. 2 You may also feel that other people are managing the exam better than you. This can cause you to feel that your mind has "gone blank" on information you know you have revised.3 Some choose to ignore the problem, while others don't review because they think they will do badly anyway and even miss exams due to the anxiety. It can also be really easy to think that if you don't try and then you fail, you won't feel as bad as if you fail after trying really hard.So what can you do to fight against the negative mindset and stay calm before and during your test? 4 Yes, this seems obvious, but it's worth repeating. If you feel confident that you've prepared thoroughly, you'll feel more confident walking into the test. The second tip is simple: just start. The blank page can maximize yourA.B.C.D.E.F.G.anxiety. 5 You can always go back and change things later if needed, but a few quick answers can get the ball rolling. Besides, allocating（分配） your time is equally important. Look through the whole test before getting started. Mentally allocate how much time you'll spend on each section. If there's time to recheck, even better.The first thing you should do is to be prepared.People often deal with exam stress in many unhelpful ways.If these classic signs of exam anxiety sound familiar, you're not alone!Therefore, people need an appropriate amount of pressure to help deal with exams.Realizing time is almost up and that there's still a lot of blank space will make you desperate.However, if you are overly anxious about the result, you may be unable to focus on your work.After you get the paper, dive right in by getting some questions done to build up your confidence.五、书面表达（共两题，35分）10.假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，得知2020年第18届世界中学生运动会（World MiddleSchool Games） 将在中国福建晋江举行，组委会正面向全国招募志愿者。
