揭阳、金中2017届高三级下学期开学联考
英语
第一部分阅读理解（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，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
For the Travel section, writers and editors selected special items to profile from a dozen cities.
Brussels: Chocolate
Nearly half the chocolate consumed in the world is eaten in Europe, and Belgium — with average consumption of 14.99 pounds per person a year — certainly covers its fair share. While Brussels, the country’s capital, is home to hundreds of chocolate makers, what makes a visit necessary is the rich heritage of traditional chocolate makers.
Budapest: Paprika (红辣椒)
The job of preparing Hungarian paprika was once considered too dangerous for mothers to do. A woman who touched her children upon returning from work risked burning them, so only the elderly and unmarried were allowed the delicate task of separating the skin from the flesh. But by the early 20th century, sweeter varieties and a machine turned paprika into a common feature of all Hungarian cuisine.
Lisbon: Tiles (瓷砖)
Is there a bluer country than Portugal? The blue sky and Atlantic Ocean embrace the land. The blue moods of Fado, the dark folk music, form the national soundtrack. And all across Portugal, the typically blue designs of azulejos — ceramic tiles — are spread across churches, castles, palaces, university halls, parks... The result is a beautiful land of Christian saints, Portuguese kings, historical glories, aristocrats (贵族) at leisure, seascapes and so on.
Madrid: Guitars
Walking into one of Madrid’s storied guitar makers’ workshops can feel like stepping into the past. Curly wood shavings, from the palest pine to ebony, fall onto the floor as artisans (工匠) turn some humb le wood into works of art. It’s painstaking work — all done by hand — with classical guitar models and the methods of making them changing little over the last century.
1. What does the job of preparing Hungarian paprika suggest?
A. The popularity of Hungarian peppers.
B. The difficulty of processing peppers.
C. The unique tradition in Budapest.
D. The hot level of Hungarian peppers.
2. Which city can be a splendid setting for a film?
A. Brussels.
B. Budapest.
C. Lisbon.
D. Madrid.
3. What’s the similarity of the four items?
A. They’re all treasures of a city.
B. They all date back several centuries.
C. Their production processes are all painstaking.
D. They all win popularity in most European countries.
B
About 150 years ago, a village church priest, Patric Bronte, in Yorkshire, England, had three lovely, intelligent daughters but his hopes fell entirely on the only male heir, Branwell, a youth with remarkable talent in both art and literature.
Branwell’s father and sisters saved their pennies to pack him off to London’s Royal Academy of Arts, but if art was his calling, he dialed a wrong number. Within weeks he hightailed it home, a penniless failure.
Hopes still high, the family landed Branwell a job as a private tutor, hoping this would free him to develop his literary skills and achieve the success and fame that he deserved. Failure again.
Still, the selfless sisters squelched their own goals, farming themselves out as teachers and governesses in support of their increasingly indebted brother, convinced the world must eventually recognize his genius. As failure multiplied, Branwell turned to alcohol, then opium, and eventually died as he had lived: a failure. So died hope in the one male — but what of the three sisters?
During Branwell’s last years, the girls published a book of poetry at their own expense (under a pen name, for fear of reviewers’bias against females). Even Branwell might have laughed: they sold only two copies.
They didn’t give up. Instead, they continued in their spare time, late at night by candlelight, to pour out their contained emotion, writing of what they knew best, of women in conflict with their natural desires and social condition, in reality, less fiction than autobiography! And 19th century literature was transformed by Anne’s Agnes Grey, Emily’s Wuthering Heights, and Charlotte’s Jane Eyre.
But years of sacrifice for Branwell had eventually ruined their health. Emily took ill at her brother’s funeral and died within 3 months, aged 29; Anne died 5 months later, aged 30; Charlotte lived only to age 39. If only they had been nurtured instead of sacrificed.
No one remembers Branwell’s name, much less of his art or literature, but the Bronte sisters’ tragically short lives teach us even more of life than literature.
4. According to the passage, what can we learn from the story of Branwell?
A. Gift is not necessarily a guarantee of success.
B. Gift is a burden for a person.
C. A person’s success is largely due to the support of his family.
D. Too many choices may lead to success in none.
5. What might lead to the tragedy of the three Bronte sisters?
A. That to be a writer was a really tough road to go
B. The social prejudice against women in those days
C. Their poor family
D. The failure of their brother.
6. Which word is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “squelched” in paragraph 4?
A. carried out
B. lived out
C. set aside
D. stuck to
7. Were Patric Bronte alive, what might he regret most?
A. Not taking good care of his children.
B. Intending his son for an artist or a writer.
C. Putting all of his eggs in one male basket.
D. Sacrificing too many pennies for his son.
C
British scientists have discovered the willow trees (柳树) planted at an angle could increase sugars for biofuel production.
Willow is a fast-growing species. It is already used to produce fuels for the renewable heating and power market. In future it could also help to produce biofuel to power vehicles. It has been known that when willows growing in the wild are blown sideways they tend to produce more sugars. But for a while it has not been known why this happens.
Researchers at Imperial College London, led by Dr Nicholas Brereton and Dr Michael Ray of the Department of Life Sciences, have now solved the mystery. When the tree is blown sideways, its genes produce large numbers of sugar molecules (分子) to straighten the tree upwards.
“This is an important breakthrough. Our study now shows that natural genetic changes are related to these differences. And this could well be the key to unlocking the future for green energy from willow,” said Dr Brereto n.
The research was carried out under lab conditions. The willows were grown at an angle of 45 degrees. They were compared to willows which grow naturally straight upwards. The team then looked for the same effect among the willows growing on the Isle of Orkney where strong winds cause the trees to bend at extreme angles. They discovered that the Orkney trees produce five times the amount of sugars found in willows grown in sheltered conditions.
Willow is widely planted across the UK. The results show that biofuel crops such as willows could be grown in climatically challenging conditions where chances of growing food crops are limited.
The study is published in Biotechnology for Biofuels.
8. What may happen when willows are planted in strong winds?
A. They stop growing.
B. Few sugars are produced.
C. They try to grow sideways.
D. Changes in genes take place.
9. The Orkney willows ______________.
A. are unusually rich in sugars
B. grow naturally straight upwards
C. looked taller than ordinary willows
D. are stronger than those growing in labs
10. Farmers living in challenging climate ____________.
A. use biofuel for heating and power
B. are encouraged to grow biofuel crops
C. can planted different kinds of food crops
D. should make their willows grow straight
11. Where does this passage probably come from?
A. A personal diary.
B. A newspaper ad.
C. A scientific journal
D. A travel magazine
D
Weighing too much can damage your health, and obesity is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world. Sleep might be one answer to the problem.
A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds. In the United States today, some 9 million children over the age of 6 are obese .
Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more, but scientists have had a tough time determining "which came first, the chicken or the egg," says Julie C. Lumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In other words, it hasn't been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios (情况) seemed equally possible.
To get a better idea of which causes which, Lumeng and her colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions. By sixth grade, 18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese.
The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students' race or gender. It also didn't matter how strict their parents were, or whether they were boys or girls. Obesity struck all of these groups equally. Instead, sleep seemed to be the key factor. Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, however, slept a lot more—or less—than others. For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep above the 9.5-hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity by sixth grade.
"I expected we'd find that this (sleep link with obesity) was just a bunch of bunk,"
says Lumeng, a pediatrician. But their findings were convincing. No matter how her team looked at the link, "we couldn't make it go away."
12. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 imply?
A. Scientists have found the exact causes of children’s obesity.
B. There is always something difficult to understand through theory.
C. The cause-effect relationship between weight and sleep isn’t clear.
D. A person’s weight has something to do with the amount of his sleep.
13. What did the interview find out?
A. 9.5 hours of sleep a night is enough for children.
B. The more a child sleeps, the healthier he will be.
C. Sixth graders need more sleep than third graders.
D. One’s race or gender has nothing to do with his weight.
14. How does the author develop the passage?
A. By listing figures.
B. By comparing different opinions.
C. By providing examples.
D. By conducting a survey.
15. What is the suitable title for the passage?
A. The benefits of enough sleep for the children
B. Sleeping less increases the risk of obesity
C. Which comes first, little sleep or obesity?
D. How many hours of sleep do children need?

How to Pick a Great Book to Read
The world is full of great books，just waiting to be read. How can you pick one you'll really like? Here are some tips：
? What makes you happy?
16 Are you really into dinosaurs or dogs or a specific person? Are there
a few careers you're interested in? You can find books about almost anything you like, and you're more likely to enjoy reading a book if you’re already interested in its subject.
? Fact o r fiction?
Some books are entirely made up and imagined. Those are called fiction books. Novels, short stories are all examples of fiction. These books can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience.
Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why. 17 Non-fiction books can bring everything to life from the first trip to the moon to what it's like to explore the deepest oceans. Try both fiction and non-fiction books to see which you like better.
? Find a family favorite.
What was your mother’s favorite hook when she was your age? Or your dad's?
18 Then you can talk about what they liked about it and share your thoughts. It's a
fun way to get to know your family a little better，and to find a book you'll enjoy! ? Ask an expert.
19 Tell a librarian about your interests —rock stars, sports teams, historical events, whatever you're into — and the names of some books you already like. Your librarian can help you find other books that you're sure to love.
? Launch a book swap.
20 It's always fun to see what your friends are reading. Even if they're not exactly bookworms, you can all encourage each other to read and share books and authors you like.You also can loo k for book swaps in your area. It’s a great way to build your personal library for free!
A. Ask them and give it a read.
B. Many of them read novels from start to finish.
C. Why not get some friends together and trade favorite books?
D. If you have a favorite hobby, look for books about that activity.
E. They tell stories using facts —but that doesn’t mean they're boring.
F. Read the passage and decide for yourself whether it seems knowledgeable.
G. Your local library is a great place to find books that you'll love, and you don't have to search all by yourself.
