Now,another type of bird flu hit Shanghai and three neighboring provinces,and this time the virus is called H7N9. By the afternoon of April11,the new virus had taken nine lives out of35infected,according to Xinhua News Agency.The“H”and“N”in the virus’name refer to two kinds of proteins(蛋白质)on the surface of the virus.Any change of the numbers of the two proteins indicates a new mutation(变异).Most of the mutations only affect birds, such as chickens and pigeons,and don’t normally spread to humans.But once they do,the results can be disastrous.“Any time an animal influenza virus crosses to humans,it is a cause for concern,”Malik Peiris,virologist(病毒学家)at the University of Hong Kong,told Nature magazine.Take the SARS epidemic(传染病)in2003as an example.The virus behind the disease is thought to have jumped to humans from animals.The virus was a complete“stranger”to human bodies,which hadn’t developed an immunity(免疫力)against it.But there is something more about the new H7N9bird flu.Unlike the H5N1bird flu,which causes severe sickness in birds,the H7N9has been evolving under the radar(悄悄地)since it travels between birds without causing noticeable illness.That makes it difficult to keep track of the disease.The good news is that there’s so far no sign that the virus is spreading from person to person.But since there is no vaccine(疫苗)for the disease yet,the World Health Organization recommends that you wash your hands after meeting with sick people and before and after you eat or prepare food,and they also suggest avoiding contact with birds or their eggs.4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A．The H5N1bird flu turned out to have something to do with the SARS epidemic.B．More than600people across the world died from the H5N1bird flu in2003.C．Most of the mutations of the proteins in the bird flu virus are harmful to both birds and humans.D．The name,H7N9bird flu,shows that there have been new mutations of the proteins in the virus.5．With the example of the SARS epidemic in Paragraph5,the author intends to.A．introduce where the SARS virus came fromB．inform us of the harmful effects of the SARS epidemic ten years agoC．show the horrible effects an animal influenza virus can have once it spreads to humansD．compare the differences between the SARS epidemic and the H7N9bird flu（英语）第3页共10页6．What makes the H7N9bird flu more frightening than the H5N1bird flu according to the text?A．It can cause severe sickness in birds.B．It can spread from person to person.C．It affects a greater number of birds.D．It doesn’t sicken birds and thus can spread unnoticed.7．What are people advised to do to protect themselves against the H7N9bird flu?a.To get vaccinated for the disease.b.To keep away from birds and their eggs.c.To stop eating chickens and ducks.d.To avoid meeting with sick people.e.To wash hands thoroughly and regularly.A．a,b B．c,d C．b,e D．a,eCWhen considering housing options at the University of Waterloo in Canada,Nigerian undergraduate student Ayooluwa Solaja chose a Living Learning Community,a residential house focused on a theme or academic interest area.Solaja lived on campus with10to1s other students in the Arts and Business LLC．Three reasons may account for the prospective international stadents willingnessto consider LLCS.1.Connect with like-minded students:Prospective international students can choose an LLC to fully experience college life in a new country and find immediate support among residents:Unlike other housing arrangements,LLCS can provide a built-in community of like-minded individualsSolaja says a highlight of her experience in the LLC was"forming relationships with upper-year students in my program.This peer leader provided her with everything from academic support to guidance on how to survive Canadian winters.Many LLCS have upper-division students who serve as peer leaders.Australian Natasha Fitzpatrick says she's happy to share her love for travel and cultural exploration."A group of us hired a car and traveled down to North Carolina sightseeing.”2.Participate in community activities:For those worried about being on the outside as a new international student,LLCS encourage participation through various on-and off-campus activities.For example,students in a fashion LLC have attended Toronto Fashion weekThrough LLCS,international students will have more opportunities to interact with domestic students,faculty and staff members outside classrooms,"says Shijuan Laurel Liu,assistant professor of Chinese and a partner with the Global Awareness LLC．In a Chinese New Year celebration associated with the LLC,for instance,students from her language and culture courses worked with Chinese students to introduce Chinese culture to the community Solaja says coming from a different education system in Nigeria with sometimes unapproachable professors, she enjoyed LLC on-campus events like when she played board games with Waterloo professors and academic（英语）第4页共10页advisers.work for job opportunities:International students who plan to gain work experience in the country they study in can benefit from LLCS that are associated with campus departments and staff.This can provide them with chances to network and inquire about work opportunities.Liu says when Chinese tutoring positions and graduate assistantships became available,she thought of international students from the Global Awareness LLC who previously helped her organize events.She also wrote reference letters for those students when they applied to graduate school.Robert C．Demezzo,director of residence life at Southern Connecticut State University,says LLCS"help many intermational students secure employment on campus.Solaja says her year living in Waterloo's Arts and Business LLC was one of her best decisions."You get what you put into the program,"she says.8．What impressed Solaja most in the LLC?A．A group of students in the LLC rented a car to travel togetherB．She got a reference letter when she applied to graduate school.C．The peer leaders shared their experience both in study and daily lifeD．They celebrate the Chinese New Year together with an assistant professor9．Who are more likely to get Job opportunities?A．Students who have participated in more on-campus events.B．Students with better language skills especially in Chinese.C．Students who have global awareness and interest in network.D．Students with more working experience through LLCs.10．Which of the following statements is FALSE?A．Various activities help international students get oriented to the new lifeB．Individuals with similar minds will have the same career prospect.C．Each LLC focuses on a particular theme or academic interest area,D．LLCS Provide opportunities of communicating with domestic students11．Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the passage?A．The teachers in Nigeria seldom participate in off-campus activitiesB．Many overseas students are not accustomed to the winter in CanadaC．The campus staff offer international students some academic support.（英语）第5页共10页D．LLCS help many international students find jobs after graduationDSince the Second World War,there has been an obvious trend,especially among the growing group of college students,toward early marriage.Many youths begin dating in the first stages of adolescence,''go steady''through high school,and marry before their formal education has been completed.In some quarters,there is much shaking of graying heads over the ways of rebellious youth.However,emotional maturity does not grow with age;it does not arrive automatically at twenty-one or twenty-five.Some achieve it surprisingly early,while others never do, even in three-score years and ten.Many students are marrying as an escape,not only from an unsatisfying home life,but also from their own personal problems of isolation and loneliness.However,any marriage entered into as an escape cannot prove entirely successful.The sad fact is that marriage seldom solves one's problems;more often,it merely worsens them. Furthermore,it is doubtful whether the home is capable of carrying all that the young are seeking to put into it;one might say that they are abandoning one idol only to worship another.Young people correctly understand that their parents are wrong in believing that success is the ultimate good,but they themselves are wrong in believing that they have found the true center of life's meaning.Their expectations of marriage are essentially unrealistic and therefore incapable of fulfillment.They want too much,and tragic disillusionment(幻想破灭)is often bound to follow.Shall we,then,join the chorus of those against early marriages?One cannot generalize:all early marriages are not bad any more than all later ones are good.Satisfactory marriages are determined not by how old one is,but by the emotional maturity of the partners.Therefore,each case must be judged on its own merits.If the early marriage is not an escape,if it is entered into with relatively few illusions or false expectations,and if it is economically practicable,why not?Good marriages can be made from sixteen to sixty,and so can bad ones.12．From Para.1we can learn that.A．emotional maturity automatically grow with ageB．some old people disapprove of early marriageC．growing group of college students are against early marriageD．the emotional expectations of young lovers are too high13．The author's attitude to marriage as an escape is.A．negative B．unsureC．indifferent D．acceptable14．It can be implied from the last paragraph that.A．early marriages should not be encouragedB．later marriages are always better than early marriagesC．each marriage should be looked at differentlyD．young people can benefit a lot from early marriage（英语）第6页共10页15．What's the best title of the passage?A．Disillusionment in Marriage B．Expectations for MarriageC．Marriages and Emotional Maturity D．The Trend of Early Marriages子辅导（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）第二节微.博橙.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。

But since there is no vaccine (疫苗) for the disease yet, the World Health Organization recommends that you wash your hands after meeting with sick people and before and after you eat or prepare food, and they also suggest avoiding contact with birds or their eggs.4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A．The H5N1 bird flu turned out to have something to do with the SARS epidemic.B．More than 600 people across the world died from the H5N1 bird flu in 2003.C．Most of the mutations of the proteins in the bird flu virus are harmful to both birds and humans.D．The name, H7N9 bird flu, shows that there have been new mutations of the proteins in the virus.5．With the example of the SARS epidemic in Paragraph 5, the author intends to.A．introduce where the SARS virus came fromB．inform us of the harmful effects of the SARS epidemic ten years agoC．show the horrible effects an animal influenza virus can have once it spreads to humansD．compare the differences between the SARS epidemic and the H7N9 bird flu6．What makes the H7N9 bird flu more frightening than the H5N1 bird flu according to the text?A．It can cause severe sickness in birds.B．It can spread from person to person.C．It affects a greater number of birds.D．It doesn’t sicken birds and thus can spread unnoticed.7．What are people advised to do to protect themselves against the H7N9 bird flu?a. To get vaccinated for the disease.b. To keep away from birds and their eggs.c. To stop eating chickens and ducks.d. To avoid meeting with sick people.e. To wash hands thoroughly and regularly.A．a, b B．c, d C．b, e D．a, eCWhen considering housing options at the University of Waterloo in Canada, Nigerian undergraduate student Ayooluwa Solaja chose a Living Learning Community, a residential house focused on a theme or academic interest area. Solaja lived on campus with 10 to 1s other students in the Arts and Business LLC．Three reasons may account for the prospective international stadents willingnessto consider LLCS.1. Connect with like-minded students: Prospective international students can choose an LLC to fully experience college life in a new country and find immediate support among residents: Unlike other housing arrangements, LLCS can provide a built-in community of like-minded individualsSolaja says a highlight of her experience in the LLC was"forming relationships with upper-year students in my program. This peer leader provided her with everything from academic support to guidance on how to survive Canadian winters. Many LLCS have upper-division students who serve as peer leaders.Australian Natasha Fitzpatrick says she's happy to share her love for travel and cultural exploration. "A group of us hired a car and traveled down to North Car olina sightseeing.”2. Participate in community activities: For those worried about being on the outside as a new internationalstudent, LLCS encourage participation through various on-and off-campus activities. For example, students in a fashion LLC have attended Toronto Fashion weekThrough LLCS, international students will have more opportunities to interact with domestic students, faculty and staff members outside classrooms,"says Shijuan Laurel Liu, assistant professor of Chinese and a partner with the Global Awareness LLC．In a Chinese New Year celebration associated with the LLC, for instance, students from her language and culture courses worked with Chinese students to introduce Chinese culture to the communitySolaja says coming from a different education system in Nigeria with sometimes unapproachable professors, she enjoyed LLC on-campus events like when she played board games with Waterloo professors and academic advisers.3. Network for job opportunities: International students who plan to gain work experience in the country they study in can benefit from LLCS that are associated with campus departments and staff. This can provide them with chances to network and inquire about work opportunities.Liu says when Chinese tutoring positions and graduate assistantships became available, she thought of international students from the Global Awareness LLC who previously helped her organize events. She also wrote reference letters for those students when they applied to graduate school.Robert C．Demezzo, director of residence life at Southern Connecticut State University, says LLCS "help many intermational students secure employment on campus.Solaja says her year living in Waterloo's Arts and Business LLC was one of her best decisions." You get what you put into the program," she says.8．What impressed Solaja most in the LLC?A．A group of students in the LLC rented a car to travel togetherB．She got a reference letter when she applied to graduate school.C．The peer leaders shared their experience both in study and daily lifeD．They celebrate the Chinese New Year together with an assistant professor9．Who are more likely to get Job opportunities?A．Students who have participated in more on-campus events.B．Students with better language skills especially in Chinese.C．Students who have global awareness and interest in network.D．Students with more working experience through LLCs.10．Which of the following statements is FALSE?A．Various activities help international students get oriented to the new lifeB．Individuals with similar minds will have the same career prospect.C．Each LLC focuses on a particular theme or academic interest area,D．LLCS Provide opportunities of communicating with domestic students11．Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the passage?A．The teachers in Nigeria seldom participate in off-campus activitiesB．Many overseas students are not accustomed to the winter in CanadaC．The campus staff offer international students some academic support.D．LLCS help many international students find jobs after graduationDSince the Second World War, there has been an obvious trend, especially among the growing group of college students, toward early marriage. Many youths begin dating in the first stages of adolescence, ''go steady'' through high school, and marry before their formal education has been completed. In some quarters, there is much shaking of graying heads over the ways of rebellious youth. However, emotional maturity does not grow with age; it does not arrive automatically at twenty-one or twenty-five. Some achieve it surprisingly early, while others never do, even in three-score years and ten.Many students are marrying as an escape, not only from an unsatisfying home life, but also from their own personal problems of isolation and loneliness. However, any marriage entered into as an escape cannot prove entirely successful. The sad fact is that marriage seldom solves one's problems; more often, it merely worsens them. Furthermore, it is doubtful whether the home is capable of carrying all that the young are seeking to put into it; one might say that they are abandoning one idol only to worship another. Young people correctly understand that their parents are wrong in believing that success is the ultimate good, but they themselves are wrong in believing that they have found the true center of life's meaning. Their expectations of marriage are essentially unrealistic and therefore incapable of fulfillment. They want too much, and tragic disillusionment (幻想破灭) is often bound to follow.Shall we, then, join the chorus of those against early marriages? One cannot generalize: all early marriages are not bad any more than all later ones are good. Satisfactory marriages are determined not by how old one is, but by the emotional maturity of the partners. Therefore, each case must be judged on its own merits. If the early marriage is not an escape, if it is entered into with relatively few illusions or false expectations, and if it is economically practicable, why not? Good marriages can be made from sixteen to sixty, and so can bad ones.12．From Para. 1 we can learn that .A．emotional maturity automatically grow with ageB．some old people disapprove of early marriageC．growing group of college students are against early marriageD．the emotional expectations of young lovers are too high13．The author's attitude to marriage as an escape is .A．negative B．unsureC．indifferent D．acceptable14．It can be implied from the last paragraph that .A．early marriages should not be encouragedB．later marriages are always better than early marriagesC．each marriage should be looked at differentlyD．young people can benefit a lot from early marriage15．What's the best title of the passage?A．Disillusionment in Marriage B．Expectations for MarriageC．Marriages and Emotional Maturity D．The Trend of Early Marriages第二节微.博橙.子辅导（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020年重庆一中高三英语二模试卷及答案
2020年重庆一中高三英语二模试卷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AChildren under the age of 18 will be allowed up to three hours per week to play video games, according to a notice issued by China's National Press and Publication Administration. Online game companies are required to provide services to minors — from8 to 9 p. m. on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays — as a way to safeguard their physical and mental health. Children are playing more and more online games these days. Is it time to limit their online gaming time? What role do parents have? Readers share their opinions.RizlaredOnline games are addictive, but if children are taught how to manage in a sensible and responsible manner then it is no longer a threat(威胁).To achieve this, parents need to set examples for not being glued to their phones. Teaching is and always will be the best solution to such problems.AndrewGood policy. By limiting time spent on online games, kids can spend time doing more useful things to develop their potential. They can go outside and run, jump and swim instead of sitting on a couch at home and playing with a smart phone.AdamIt is often seen that parents argue with children over cellphones. Most parents can hardly set and enforce the time limit for its daily usage. Some forcibly take away their cellphones, but it will ruin trust and relationship. Even worse, it will make their kids hate them.PinkExcessive(过度的）gaming is purely a waste of time and energy for minors and has a negative effect on both physical and mental health. The gaming industry should not put profit- flaking interests as its priority (优先事项) . They should act in a socially responsible way toprovide an environment for children to ensure their well-being and development.LaurenThere would be a loophole(漏洞). Children could use their parents’ or other adults’ IDs to avoid real-name registration, thus making it impossible to put this policy in effect. Parents ly need to strengthen guidance andsupervision to keep their children from gaming addiction.1. What should kids do according to Andrew?A. Play online games.B. Play with a smart phone.C. Study all the time.D. Go in for outside activities.2. What does Pink advise the gaming industry to do?A. Pay attention to its profit.B. Focus on kids’ health.C. Be responsible for kids’ surroundings.D. Persuade kids lo play more games.3. What role do parents have according to the passage?A. They keep hold of their phones.B. They set examples for their kids.C. They limit their kids’ time.D. They blame kids for addiction.BIf there is no difference in general intelligence between boys and girls, what can explain girls’ poor performance in science and math?It hasbeen suggested that girls do not take math courses, not because they are difficult, but for social reasons. Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine (女性的) and attractive (有魅力的).However, there are still more high-achieving boys than girls when taking math exams. This difference appears to be worldwide. Biological explanations have been offered for this, but there are other explanations too.Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences. From their first days in kindergarten, boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks. Facts show that outstanding mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who gave answers.Besides, there can be little doubt that teachers of math and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students. They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls. They spend more time with the boy students, giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them. They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion. They also praise boys more frequently. All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and math and to give them confidence that they are able to succeed.Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many math and science courses, nor is it likely to support girls who do. When it comes to these subjects it seems certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls.4. Why does the author raise a question in paragraph 1?A. To find differences between boys and girls.B. To explain the poor performance of girls.C. To ask readers a question.D. To introduce the topic.5. The text mainly discusses ________ reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements.A. biologicalB. personalC. socialD. historical6. What does the text say about great mathematicians?A. Their teachers did not offer answers to them.B. They started learning math at an earlier age.C. They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years.D. Their success resulted from their strong interest in math.7. The author would probably agree that ________.A. boys and girls learn in the same wayB. boys and girls are equal in general intelligenceC. girls are more confident in themselves than beforeD. girls should take fewer science courses than boysCHow much do consumers care about the carbon footprint of the products they buy? Would they care more if the goods were labeled with emissions（排放物）data?Does it matter at which stage in the lifecycle of a product the carbon is emitted? Research published in the International Journal of Environmental Policy and Decision Making offers a way to find out．Study participants view a carbon footprint label as similar to labels that have appeared on some existing products．The label shows the carbon dioxide emissions connected with their production, transportation, usage and disposal（清理）, thus showing the buyer the likely effect on climate change of buying a particular product．In the first group of studies, the research team proved that carbon emissions and a carbon emissions label would indeed play a role in consumer product decisions, although not as great a role as price．In a second set of studies, the team found that emissions connected with usage were most important to consumers followed by the transportation and disposal stages．The carbon footprint of the producing process was considered less importantto consumers than the other stages in the product's lifecycle because it is outside the consumer's control．That is, the participants felt they were less responsible for carbon emitted during producing process．Consumers value recycling a product, but the researchers found that, overall, the consumers would preferproducers to offset（补偿）carbon emissions rather than having toaddressthe problem directly themselves．Consumers are increasingly concerned with climate change problems, and already carbon labeling is appearing on some products．"We find that participantsnot only take the carbon label into account when making product decisions, but they want detailed information on the label," the researchers explain．They suggest that companies should prepare for how carbon emissions labels might affect future consumer choice．8. Which of the following most affects consumer's choice?A. Labels．B. Price．C Packaging． D. Carbon footprint．9. About the carbon dioxide emissions in the product's lifecycle, which stage do consumers care most?A. Usage stage．B. Transportation stage．C. Disposal stage．D. Producing stage．10. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word "address"?A. Look into．B. Point out．C. Deal with．D. Run into．11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Companies should take carbonemissions more seriously．B. All products have been labeled with carbon emissions data．C. Producers will attach less importance to carbon emissions labels．D. Products labeled with carbon emissions data will have poor sales．DHave you ever been sad because of failure? Please remember, for quite often achieving what you set out to do is not the most important thing.A boy decided to dig a deep hole behind his house. As he was working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “I want to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a while, the boy picked up a jar. He showed it to the visitors. It was full of all kinds of stones and insects. Then he said calmly and confidently, “Maybe I can’t finish digging all the way through the earth,but look at what I’ve found during this period!”Theboy’s goal was far too difficult, but it did cause him to go on. And that is what a goal is for－to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen, in other words, to cause us to keep working!Not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will endup with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you fall short of your aim, maybe you can say, “Yes, but look at what I’ve found along the way! There are so many wonderful things having come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. It is the unexpected joy on the journey that really makes sense.12. The older boys laughed at the boy because he was thought to be______.A. braveB. impoliteC. foolishD. warm-hearted13. Why did the boy show the jar to the older boys?A. To drive them away.B. To show what he had found in digging.C. To show how beautiful the jar was.D. To attract them to join him in the work.14. What can be learnt from the fourth paragraph of the text?A. No dream can come true.B. All work will end successfully.C. Goals shouldn’t be set too high.D. Goals will make us work harder.15. The best title for the text should be______.A. A Boy Dug a HoleB. Joy in the JourneyC. No Pain, No GainsD. Failure Is the Mother of Success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。

AMid-February of 2018 brings us two key events: Valentine’s Day and the start of the Year of the Dog. Happiness and romance are in the air. Both at home and abroad various celebrations are held for the two western and Chinese festivals. Here are some activities recommended to you, which few people will miss the chance to participate in them.1．Which celebration will last longest according to the text? A．The dog themed exhibition in Beijing.B．The large celebration in Boston.C．Dingsheng Royal Lantern Fair in Chengde.D．The celebration in Copley Square Hotel.2．In Boston celebration, a mascot of the dog will be received by anyone born in ________.A．2004B．1996C．2012D．19943．How much will a couple married in the year of dog pay for Dingsheng Lantern Fair admission?A．60 yuan.B．100 yuan.C．200 yuan.D．150 yuan.BDoctors in hospital emergency rooms often see accidental poisonings. A frightened parent arrives with a child who swallowed a cleaning liquid. Or perhaps the harmful substance is a medicine. Or it might be a product meant to kill insects. These are common causes of accidental poisonings.In cases like this, seek medical help as soon as possible. Save the container of whatever caused the poisoning. And look for information about anything that stops the effects of the poison in the container. Save anything expelled from the mouth of the victim. That way, doctors can examine it.Millions of people know how to give abdominal thrusts (腹部按压) to save a person choking on something trapped in the throat. The American Red Cross says a rescuer should first hit the person on the back five times between the shoulder bones. If the airway is still blocked, the Red Cross suggests pushing hard five times on the victim’s abdomen. You can do these abdominal thrusts by getting directly behind a sitting or standing person.The Mayo Clinic’s health centers suggest several steps if bleeding is severe. First, if possible, remove dirt from the wound and press it with a clean cloth or piece of clothing. In the past, people were advised to stop severe bleeding with a tourniquet (止血带). But experts now say tourniquets are dangerous because they can crush (压坏) blood passages and nerves. If a wound seems infected, let the victim rest. Physical activity can spread the Infection. Treat the wound with a mixture of salt and water until medical Help arrives.To learn more about first aid, ask a hospital or an organization like the Red Cross or Red Crescent Society forinformation. Training may be offered in your area.If you know first aid methods, you can be calmer and more helpful in case of emergency.4．Which of the following is NOT the cause of accidental poisonings according to the passage?A．A harmful medicine. B．An insect-killing chemical.C．A cleaning liquid. D．Poisonous insects.5．The underlined word “expelled” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”.A．coming out B．taking upC．going away D．getting down6．From the passage, we can know ________.A．now people still use a tourniquet to stop bleedingB．the container of poison is not helpful to doctorsC．rest can do good to an infected woundD．abdominal thrusts are for the unconscious7．Where can you learn more about first aid according to the passage?A．A hospital or the Red Cross. B．A hospital or a magazine.C．The Red Cross or a patient. D．The Red Crescent Society or a book.CSeveral Jobs That Will Be Automated By Artificial Intelligence(AI) And RobotsTranslatorImage recognition software and voice recognition software are bringing some major advances to language translation．Applications like Google’s Word Lens can translate words from signs and documents in real time and there are a lot of translation apps that allow you to type in a word or phrase and will translate it for you．Some will even speak the phrase for you and raw word-to-word translation will be fully automated soon．Fast food workersAutomated ordering booths have already made their way into a few McDonald’s restaurants around the world，and cooking positions could be removed next．The booths probably can’t handle customer service problems well，so televideo systems could bring in an office employee to deal with complaints．Field technicianNew advances in the Internet of Things could make this work obsolete.Low-cost sensors combined with high availability cellular／satellite communications and cloud technology are being started to automate and alarm these sites, and can be checked and maintained from a desktop or mobile device.Sales representativeBut, e-commerce is changing how we make purchasing decisions, especially those where there isn’t much differentiation among the major competitors.If you’re selling a high-differentiation product and／or a high-price, low-volume product you have some job security, but if you’re selling a high-volume, low-differentiation product, you better start polishing your resume, said Doug Camplejohn, CEO of Fliptop. “These kind of product sales are all moving online.”8．What can Google’s Word Lens do?A．Translate by image and voice recognition software.B．Speak the phrase or word for you.C．Make real-time translation.D．Allow you to type in a word or phrase.9．What can we infer from the second part?A．All the restaurants own automated ordering booths.B．Service problems can’t be handled automatically.C．Cooks will not be automated by AI and robots.D．Customers will have no complaints because of AI．10．What does the underlined word“obsolete”mean in Part 3?A．Abandoned. B．Welcome.C．Forbidden. D．Efficient.11．What does the author mean by“you better start polishing your resume” in the last paragraph?A．You must value your present work.B．You have some job security.C．Your resume needs correcting further.D．You should consider changing the job.DFor art, the year 2115 will be one full of events. In May of that year in Berlin, the philosopher-artist Jonathon Keats' "century cameras'' — cameras with a 100-year-long exposure （曝光）time — will be brought back from hiding places around the city to have their results developed and exhibited Six months after that, the Future Library in Oslo, Norway, will open its doors for the first time, presenting 100 books printed on the wood of trees planted in the distant past of 2015.As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, puts it: **Future Library is an artwork for future generations/' These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of "slow art'' intended to push viewers and participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim to challenge today's short-term thinking and the brief attention spans of modem consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modem culture — not just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are encouraged to stare at five works of art for 10minutes at a time — a tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than 30 seconds on each piece of art.Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much a project for cities, since it's in cities that time runs fastest and the pace of life is fastest.

Now, people are joining in the “Little Free Pantry” idea, which shares a similar value of spreading kindness with mini pantries.One family who live in Boise, Idaho, have a three-year-old son who wanted to build something for his third birthday, so they decided that they would build a community pantry box that they would share with their neighbors. They felt that they had everything they wanted, so they wanted to give a little something back to the community and help the people in need.The idea is that the family fill this box up with non-perishable (不易腐的) items, which include tins, toiletries, and other goods. However, it’s meant to be a community give and take, so other people would also contribute to adding to this mini-pantry.It seems that the idea has taken off in other communities who also want to give a little something back and help those in need. It’s the kind of movement that helps the struggling members of the community, allowing them to live knowing that they can have a can of soup for dinner if they have nothing else. Or that sanitary products are available.The Millers keep their little pantry going, realizing that it’s emptiest toward the end of the month, so they know that it’s really helping people. They don’t believe that anyone has taken advantage of it and that it’s only helped people.Various other communities have taken on the mini pantries project in order to spread alittle kindness within their community.4．Why is “Little Free Library” mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To show the striking difference between it and “Little Free Pantry”.B．To help readers have a better understanding of “Little Free Pantry”.C．To encourage people to take “Little Free Library” as an example.D．To prove that most people are just so kind as to help those in need.5．Why did the family build the “Little Free Pantry”?A．To let others know about their son’s birthday.B．To show that they lived in great abundance,C．To egress gratitude and offer help to others.D．To test if people in the community are honest.6．Whom is Free Pantry most helpful to?A．Those who can’t go shopping often.B．Those who want to show kindness. C．Those who want to celebrate birthdays. D．Those who live in great poverty. 7．How is the “Little Free Library” idea going?A．The community pantry box is always empty.B．People take advantage of others’ kindness.C．More items are badly needed to refill the box.D．It is gaining more and more popularity.Bats quickly eat the insects that bite us and ruin our crops. They pollinate (授粉) flowers and they replant forests by spreading seeds around. But as agriculture overtakes rain forests and jungles, humans have come into conflict with one bat species: the common vampire bat (吸血蝙蝠).Well, vampire bats are ugly little animals. They’ve got these wrinkly noses that have infrared (红外线的) heat sensors so they can detect warm blood flowing beneath the skin. They’ve got ears that can pick up the sound of low frequencies. That’s the sound of big animals breathing. And they have super sharp teeth. So when you’re bitten by one of these bats, you don’t even feel it. They also have amazing movement skills. They can fly, but they ca n also run with their wings,And vampire bats mainly interact with humans who are raising livestock. They’ll drink the blood of cows and pigs and chickens. You can find newborn cows with bites from vampire bats,chicken coops that are covered in drips of blood. Children will regularly wake up with vampire bat bites on their feet. Actually, the bites aren’t that big of a health problem. The main problem is that very rarely these bats are sick with rabies (狂犬病). And they can spread this fatal disease to cattle and people.Gerry, a scientist, does experiments where he keeps one of the bats away from food for a night. And that’s something that actually happens in the wild all the time. The bat will go out and it can’t find anything to eat. And if that happens tw o nights in a row, the bat could actually starve to death. But what happens is that another bat will come in and they’ll rescue that hungry bat. They’ll let out a little blood to feed it. And this behavior is seen between mothers and their children and bet ween siblings. But surprisingly, it’s also seen between bats that aren’t related at all.8．What does the second paragraph mainly want to tell us about vampire bats?A．Their physical organs. B．Their super powers.C．Their living habits. D．Their attacking skills.9．What is the vampire bat’s biggest threat to human beings?A．It drinks the blood of livestock. B．It prefers to bite little children.C．It can spread a fatal disease. D．It is often infected with rabies. 10．What do Geny’s experiments find out?A．Bats, not related by blood, share blood. B．Bats usually live a hard life in the wild. C．Different bats live a quite different life. D．Blood is even more important for bats. 11．What can we can infer from the text?A．Vampire bats are human’s natural enemy.B．Human should try to get rid of vampire bats.C．Vampire bats are human’s true friends.D．Vampire bats should not always be blamed.Creating art or engaging in artistic efforts has numerous benefits for young people —from fewer disciplinary infractions to better academic performance and increased likelihood of struggling for post-secondary education.And yet students’ participation in arts classes varies by what school they attend.Higher-poverty schools in King County have lower enrollment in arts classes.That’s one data point evident in a new dashboard released by the cultural funding agency4Culture and the state superintendent’s office. It shows the percentage of high school students taking different kinds of arts classes in individual schools withi n King County’s 19 school districts. It’s intended to let anyone in the public research arts class participation and compare schools. For example, more than two-thirds of students at Bellevue’s International School took a music class compared with just 12 percent at Kent — Meridian High School in the Kent School District in the 2018-19 school year.“We strongly believe the arts can make for a happier, healthier education in every single way,” said Charlie Rathbun, director of arts programs with 4Culture. “S o we will be looking at outcomes around the dropout rate, discipline rate, graduation rate, things like that.”Overall, the dashboard shows higher participation in visual arts and music classes than in theater or dance. “Dance, for example, being almost no n-existent in our schools — we have to ask why and think about those students who might respond quite positively to dance,” Rathbun said.Alternative schools and dropout re-engagement programs have very low participation in arts classes. Students across the state are required to take two arts courses to graduate. 12．What does the underlined word “infraction” in paragraph 1 most probably mean? A．Obedience. B．Offence.C．Sense. D．Authority.13．Why will Charlie Rathbun be looking at the outcomes?A．To know about students’ academic performance.B．To understand the reason for his students’ dropout.C．To prove the function of arts education at school.D．To encourage students to take dance, not other arts.14．Which can best describe the conclusion Charlie Rathbun will make about arts participation? A．Reliable. B．One-sided.C．Personal. D．Abstract.15．What is the best title for the text?A．Arts Class Participation At School: Yes Or NoB．New Dashboard: Participation In Arts ClassesC．New Dashboard For King County High SchoolsD．Low Participation In Arts Classes At High School二、七选五Stress is all around us, but there are some ways we can manage our strew regardless of what comes our way .How many times do we find ourselves doing something just for money? Don’t get me wrong — I like money as much as the next person. But if most everything we do revolves around how much money we might make, we will end up being miserable. I would suggest you do things because they are the right thing to do, or because it feels good to you. The money will follow. 16．17．Do you know that by helping others you really end up helping yourself? If you give and share from a place of non-expectation, you will reap great rewards. Then you will let go of your problems and it will help reduce your stress.18．They are either in a hospital or nursing home that have no one left of their family or friends. How about going to visit someone and maybe bring a pet along for the visit? 19．When you see their faces, and get their appreciation all your stress will simply melt away. Try it and see for yourself.By having options and the right intentions you reduce the possibility of a situation causing you stress. 20．By doing so you will find that you feel better about yourself and end up with less stress in your life.A．There are many lonely people out there.B．You can also see how you can help others.C．Actually, your stress will not melt away immediately.D．How many times have you reached out a helping hand to others?E.Some can be done individually, while others are best done in a group setting.F.If you take this approach you will be a lot happier and healthier in the long run.G.You would be surprised how much these people would appreciate such a simple act of kindness.三、完形填空A young boy is a devoted fan of the University of Tennessee, but he was 21to not have a shirt to show the world his colors.

2020届重庆外国语学校高三英语二模试题及答案解析
2020届重庆外国语学校高三英语二模试题及答案解析第一部分阅读（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AI started working with my hands at a young age. The youngest of five brothers, I took on the role as a “maintenance (维修) man” at an early age for our family’s small grocery store. Often my dad wouldn’t give me a clear idea of how something shouldbe done, so I just had to figure it out by researching or through trial and error.Fast forward to 2016 and those problem-solving skills would become the focus of Tippecanoe High School’s Homebuilding class. I knew I wanted to teach the students skills that went beyond just being able to hammer nails or cut pieces of two-by-fours. The problem was that we didn’t have the resources at the time to do much else. The idea of attracting some type of funding seemed very important. Designing, building and selling a tiny house on wheels seemed like the perfect project to accomplishthe task. I reached out to a number of local businesses and most of them responded with the greatest support for what x k w we were doing.This year we added a new element to the program. Through one of our partners, we were able to connect with the nonprofit Veteran’s Ananda Incorporated. Students in the Homebuilding class are leading the design and production of micro houses to be donated to this organization. The new partnership gives the students another focus to consider when designing and building the houses.There has been no shortage of students since our first year. Three years ago we had 41 students, the next 191, and this year it was limited to just over 160 students so we could have a safe and manageable classroom environment. The number of girls taking the class has risen steadily over the last few years as well. This class offers something for everyone and the skills are universal.1. How can we describe the young author?A. He opened a small grocery store.B. He did a lot of research in the lab.C. He enjoyed doing hands-on activities.D. He learnt about maintenance from his father.2. What do the underlined words “the task” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Getting some financial support.B. Selling a tiny house on wheels.C. Reaching out to many local businesses.D. Offering the students some problem-solving skills.3. What can be inferred about the Homebuilding class from the last paragraph?A. Its size needs increasing.B. Itis popular with the students.C. It has caused some safety concerns.D. Its classroom environment is hard to manage.BIn many countries of the world, people can confidently tell youthe meaning of their town or city, but most people who live inManchester,OxfordorBirminghamwould not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living inBritainwere Celts. Even the word “Britain" is Celtic (凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra". This is why there are so many place names inEnglandwhich end in "-chester" or “-caster"Manchester, for example.The Romans never reachedWalesorScotland, and many placenames there are Celtic. For example,Welsh place names that begin with “Llan" come from the Celtic word for "church".After the Romans leftBritain, it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is nowGermanyandHolland. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham" or “-ton". Some got their names from the leader of the village.SoBirminghamfor example, means "Beormund's village”The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (village on a hill)——a good place to build a village and Moreton (“village by a lake”)where floods could make life hard. Place names that end in “-ford" (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Finally, in 1066EnglandbecameNorman—theNormansgave us the place name "grange", which means farm.And how aboutLondon? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants (居民). People once believed that theUnited Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.4. The origin of British place names is unfamiliar to many local people because ofA. the death of local languagesB. the long lost history of the namesC. their lack of interest in itD. the frequent changes to the names5. According to the article,Stratfordis most likely a town .A. on a hillB. near a castleC. beside a riverD. with a church6. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants inBritain?A. The Celts—The Romans—TheNormans—The Anglo SaxonsB. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansC. The Romans—The Celts—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansD. The Romans―The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—TheNormans7. What doesLondonmean in Celtic?A. RiverB. LondiniumC. LudD. CastleCYou've probably heard it suggested that you need to move more throughout the day, and as a general rule of thumb, that "more" is often defined as around 10,000 steps. With many Americans tracking their stepsvia new fitness-tracking wearables, or even just by carrying their phone, more and more people use the 10,000-step rule as their marker for healthy living. Dr. Dreg Hager, professor of computer science at Johns Hopkins, decided to take a closer look at that 10,000-step rule, and he found that usingitas a standard may be doing more harm than good for many.“It turns out that in 1960 in Japan they figured out that the average Japanese man, when he walked 10,000 steps a day burned something like 3,000 calories and that is what they thought the average person should consume so they picked 10,000 steps as a number” Hager said.According to Hager, asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly or those with medical conditions, making it unwise for them to jump into that level of exercise, even if it's walking. The bottom line is that 10,000 steps may be too many for some and too few for others. He also noted that those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take more steps than people with longer legs to cover the distance. It seems that 10,000 steps may be suitable for the latter.A more recent study focused on older women and how many steps can help maintain good health andpromote longevity (长寿).The study included nearly 17,000 women with an average age of 72. Researchers found that women who took 4,400 steps per day were about 40% less likely to die during a follow-up period of just over four years: Interestingly, women in the study who walked more than 7,500 steps each day got no extra boost in longevity.8. What does the underlined word "it' in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The phone recording.B. The 10,000-step rule.C. The healthy living.D. The fitness-tracking method.9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. How many steps a Japanese walks.B. How we calculate the number of steps.C. If burning 3,000 calories daily is scientific.D. Where 10,000 steps a day came from.10. Who will probably benefit from 10,000 steps each day according toHager?A. Senior citizens.B. Young short-legged people.C. Healthy long-legged peopleD. Weak individuals.11. How many steps may the researchers suggest senior citizens take each day?A. 4,400 steps.B. 10,000 steps.C. 2,700 steps.D. 7,500 steps.DTo stay healthy and fit, Chinesestudents do group exercises every day at school. Most of you probably do the same set of exercises. But some school exercises have grown popular online due to their local and innovative designs.Singing in Sichuan dialects with energetic movements and unique mask-changing is not just a Sichuan Opera performance. It’s the routine exercise for students of Mianyang Foreign Languages Experimental School in Sichuan province.“Sichuan Opera is a local opera, and it is now facing a gap in inheritance (传承). Therefore, we cooperated with Mianyang Intangible Cultural Heritage Center to create a simple and easy-to-learn Sichuan Opera exercise,” said Shen Junhua, who is in charge of organizing the school’s exercise between classes.According to Shen, this new type of exercise has been practiced since 2017 and has been popular among students. When students enroll (入学), they will spend several weeks practicing it. At present, almost all of thestudents and teachers have mastered it.“In fact, we had hardly heard of Sichuan Opera before teachers taught us how to do the Sichuan Opera exercise,” said Li Yangwenwen, 14, an eighth grade student who also joined the school’s Sichuan Opera club out of interest. “It’s very different from normal exercises. After practicing it, we found it very beautiful and became interested in it. Now, almost all of the students look forward to our daily exercise time and feel excited to do it.”“By combining opera with daily exercise, the daily class activity allows students to perceive and understand Sichuan Opera’s culture”, Shen said. “After years of continuous effort to spread the seeds of traditional culture, the younger generation is finally catching on.”12. What do students in Shen’s school do during the group exercise?A. They do normal exercise .B. They sing pop songs in Sichuan dialects.C. They do mask-changing in a Sichuan Opera performance.D. They combine group exercise with Sichuan Opera.13. Why do they adopt the new type of exercise?A. To attract new students to the school.B. To inherit local culture.C. To create an easy-to-learn exercise.D. To make the school’s group exercise popular.14. How do teachers and students react to the group exercise?A. Calm.B. Indifferent.C. Enthusiastic.D. Uninterested.15. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Shen’s continuous effort is highly praised.B. The younger generation will have a stronger body.C. The students can better understand their local culture.D. Students help to spread the seeds of traditional culture toyounger generation.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。
