She will miss a few more Thursdays,when she can wave to her garbage men，but her chemo sessions will be switched to Mondays soon and she'll be back by the window early next year.I have confidence in Rose's recovery,"her mother said.24.How did the garbage men help Rose's family?A.They took the sick girl to hospital regularly.B.They collected the garbage for free.C.They looked after Rose in turn.D.They offered money to help cure Rose.25.What can we learn about the garbage men?A.They made the family famous.B.They encouraged the family.C.They gave Angie Evenson a good lesson.D.They doubted about the doctor's diagnosis.26.What do the garbage men wish for in terms of the girls’smiling faces?A.People's appreciation for their work.B.Good friendship with the young girls.C.Making more efforts to do their work well.D.The girls'family's caring more for their children.27.What can we infer from the passage?A.Olsen has three sons.B.Fritz has not got married.C.Fritz is faced with a serious disease.D.Evenson is optimistic about Rose's condition.COne way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we'd make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical(合逻辑的)thinking leads to sound decision-making.It's true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety canmake us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship(forexample,they fear to be abandoned)tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.In the real world though，it's worth realizing that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common.It communicates to others that you care,and what's more,it's probably a sign that you are intelligent.At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests.This seems reasonable:if you're a thinker,you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots,including bad ones.The important thing,if you are a worrywart(杞人忧天者),is not to let your fear destroy your dreams.And don't bury your head in the sand.Instead,act on your fears －do the research as well as preparation,so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear,you meet the challenge in full readiness.When anxiety beats you,or casts a shadow over your life，this is a serious problem. No one is denying that.But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview，you needn't see it as your enemy.Anxiety is an important feeling,developed through evolution.As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer,too.Your nerves(神经紧张)are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them.Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.28.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?A.It can enable us to be more focused.B.It can stop us from thinking logically.C.It can make us more willing to take risks.D.It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.29.What can we learn from the passage?A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.30.How should we deal with anxiety in the author's opinion?A.Regard it as our enemy.B.Take action to control it.C.Avoid being defeated by it.D.Treat it as a minor feeling.31.What is the theme of the passage?A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety.B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety.C.Tips on how to keep a good mood.mon misunderstandings about anxiety.DCOPENHAGEN－Greenland on Friday dismissed the idea that it might be up for sale after reports that US President Donald Trump had privately discussed with his advisers the idea of buying the world's biggest island."We are open for business,but we're not for sale,”Greenland's foreign minister Ane Lone Bagger told Reuters.Trump is due to visit Copenhagen in September and the Arctic will be on the agenda(议程)during meetings with the prime ministers of Denmark and Greenland.Talk of a Greenland purchase was first reported by the Wall Street Journal.Two sources familiar with the situation told Reuters that the idea had been laughed off by some advisers as a joke but was taken more seriously by others in the White House.Danishpoliticians on Friday poured scorn on the idea."It has to be an April Fool's joke.Totally out of season,”former prime minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said on Twitter.Greenland,a self-ruling part of Denmark located between the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans,is dependant on Danish economic support.It handles its own domestic affairs while Copenhagen looks after defense and foreign policy."I am sure a majority in Greenland believes it is better to have a relation to Denmark than the United States,in the long term,"Aaja Chemnitz Larsen,Danish MP(国会议员)from Greenland's second-largest party Inuit Ataqatigiit(IA)，told Reuters."My immediate thought is‘No,thank you',"she said.Greenland is gaining attention from global super powers including China，Russia and the United States due to its strategic location and its mineral resources.Martin Lidegaard，senior lawmaker of the Danish Social Liberal Party and a former foreign minister,called the idea"a grotesque(怪诞的)proposal"which had no basis in reality."We are talking about real people and you can't just sell Greenland like an old colonial power,"he told Reuters."But what we can take seriously is that the US stakes(利害关系)and interest in the Arctic is significantly on the rise and they want a much bigger influence,”he added.32.Which of the following is TRUE about Greenland?A.It is short of natural resources.B.It is an autonomous Danish territory.C.It is dependant on American economic support.D.It possesses its own defense and foreign policy.33.What is the possible meaning of the underlined word"scorn"in Para.3?A.Words that show approval of or admiration for something.B.A situation in which it is very difficult to decide what to do.C.The feeling that something is stupid or does not deserve respect.D.The quality making someone continue doing sth.even when this is difficult.34.What does Martin Lidegaard mainly want to express in the last paragraph?A.The profit of selling Greenland to America.B.The difficulty in selling Greenland to America.C.The proper process of the Greenland purchase.D.The real motivation of the Greenland purchase.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the news report?A.Greenland tells Trump it is not for saleB.Trump favours the idea of buying GreenlandC.Greenland is gaining attention from global super powersD.Trump to meet prime ministers of Denmark and Greenland第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020届高三英语第一次联考试卷及参考答案
2020届高三英语第一次联考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（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AThe history ofpop art begins with abstract art. Pop art emerged from the foundation of abstract art in the 1950s, first gaining recognition in Great Britain, then establishing itself in the United States in the 1960s.In the 1930s and 1940s, abstract art was greatly popular, but people began to hate this art form. Most abstract art produced in this era could be found in art galleries or the homes of the elite(名流), not in the homes of everyday people. Pop art sprung onto the scene as the people's art.Some art critics say pop art is a rebellion against abstract art; others say it is an extension of abstract art. You can see elements of abstract art in many pop art prints, especially those that consist of a collage（拼贴画）of images. However, some pop art pieces have nothing to do with abstract art, looking more like a photo of a popular consumer item, which impressed people deeply.Richard Hamilton and Eduardo Paolozzi were two of the first contemporary pop art pioneers recognised in Great Britain. They were a part of the Independent Group, an organised group of British artists who wanted to challenge ruling modernist approaches to culture. They recognised the value of modern advertising and comic book images. They used these popular images in art as a social commentary, often building irony and humour into their artworks, thus creating a new form of art. These pieces were mass-produced and sold at affordable prices.When pop art took off in the United States, it expanded to include a celebration of kitsch and the common images found in movies and television. Andy Wharhol is perhaps the most famous American pop art artist, known for his prints of the actress Marilyn Monroe, the singer Elvis Presley and of Campbell's soup cans. Andy Wharhol was inspired by images from advertisements and common consumer items. He also made a series of paintings which showed images of car accidents.1. Why did people dislike abstract art?A. People found it hard to understand.B. Ordinary people couldn't afford it.C. People disliked enjoying it in galleries.D. It wasn't based on everyday life.2. What impression do pop art works leave on people?A. They are a rebellion against abstract art.B. They have many elements of abstract art.C. They are created so real.D. They are products of advertisers.3. The Independent Group was set up to ________.A. introduce a new art form to the worldB. develop modern advertising furtherC. create new comic book imagesD. make British culture better knownBAlaska—The American city Anchorage is recovering from a powerful earthquake Friday that damaged public buildings, homes and roads.The 7.0 earthquake caused buildings to slake. But there have been no reports of deaths, serious injuries or damage. Officials say the quake has not affected transportation of food and her supplies. “The ships are coming in on schedule, the supply lines are at this point working well,” the government told reporters Sunday.The Glenn Highway was probably the road hit hardest by the earthquake. It connects the state's largest city to other parts in the north. Traffic has been heavy and slow—moving since the quake. Drivers are being guided. Groups of workers are trying to rebuild areas where the quake left large holes in the road.People who are still nervous after the major quake have been more upset by more than 1, 700 aftershocks. “Anything that moves, you feel terrified”said David, whose home suffered structural(结构)damage, including a sunken foundation(地基). Actually, Alaska came up with strict building rules after a 9. 2 earthquake in 1964. That was the second most powerful earthquake on record.Government officials said a public health center promises that moneyfor medical treatment will continue to come. Mental healthy service(心理健康服务)is also available for people hurt by the disaster.Earthquake experts say there is a 4 percent chance of another 7. 0 earthquake or greater in the following week. "The chance is very small, but its not impossible, ” said the expert, Paul Caruso.4. What was the result of the earthquake?A. Buildings were damaged.B. Food supply was cut off.C. Many people were killedD. The ships could not come in.5. Why is the traffic slow on the Glenn Highway?A. Because small quakes hit the city.B. Because falling rocks are a danger.C. Because the highway is badly damaged.D. Because drivers are misled.6. What can you learn from Paul Caruso?A. Another greater earthquake is on the way.B. Chances still exists of another earthquake.C. It will be safe in the 1th week after the quake.D. There is no possibility for more quakes.7. Where can your possibly read the passage?A. Ina story book.B. In a travel journal.C. In a poster.D. In a newspaper.CI got my first bike when I was nine years old. Jimmy, the bike, was my first love. I rode it everywhere. The suburb, the back lanes, the fields and forests, the river paths and swampland were far more exciting than any adventure novel or television series.There’s nothing quite like the relationship between a child and his bicycle and the endless happiness two wheels and a pair of strong legs offer. No video or computer game can replace the liberation of being alone on a bicycle.As parents, to deny children the simple pleasure of riding a bike is a failure of our responsibilities to raise independent and stable young citizens. We should offer our children a healthy alternative to hours in front of an addictive screen. Studies have shown that cycling promotes not only muscle growth but brain growth. Guess which country has children with the best mental health outcomes and is regularly the top of listings of the happiest young people. No surprise it’s theNetherlands, the unquestioned leader among industrial countries in encouraging bicycle use.Our dependence on cars has degraded the public transport system, polluted our sky, led to the untimely death of thousands every year, and denied children safe access to their suburbs. A recent study found that 69% of children were accompanied to school. The same study found that a similar number of parents drove to work.In some regions ofJapan, when children start their first year of school, parents are expected to walk with them for the first few weeks, introducing them to residents and shopkeepers along the chosen route, letting the community take care of these children. However, driving children to school isproscribed. Children can choose to ride a bike or walk to school after they are familiar with the community, and it’s the community’s role to keep them safe.Therefore, I strongly advise the government to provide better infrastructure (基础设施). Build separated cycle lanes, decrease speed limits, and design street scapes that favour people over cars. The results will be less pollution, quieter suburbs, a healthier population and, best of all, happy and independent children.8. What can we infer about the author from the text?A. He was addicted to computer games.B. He liked taking adventurous trips in nature.C. He had great fun exploring the outside by cycling.D.He got his first birthday present at the age of nine.9. Why does the author mention theNetherlandsin Paragraph 3?A. To introduce his good way of raising independent children.B. To illustrate the great influence riding has on mental health.C. To stress the importance of being physically and mentally healthy.D. To explain cycling does best in city development in theNetherlands.10. What does the underlined word “proscribed” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Recommended.B. Protected.C. Delayed.D. Forbidden.11. How does the author mainly support his idea?A. By analyzing causes.B. By listing examples.C.By giving definitions.D. By analyzing scientific data.DA single toy catches a child's attention for a limited period of time, but a box of items that allows a child to build their own toys will catch their imagination for years to come. This brilliant idea already exists in real product form, and it's called Toyi.Toyi is described as an eco-friendly creative building kit, and it recently won the well-known IF Design Award. It came from Istanbul, Turkish, where a young female designer named Elif Atmaca first came up with the idea for it when she wanted to help the kids living in disadvantaged areas. These children do not have access to the variety of interesting toys that wealthier children do.Toyi Atmaca's design allows children to transform what are around them into clever toys. It consists of sticks, junction parts, flexible connectors, toy body parts like feet, eyes, hands, and wheels that can be used to turn old water bottles, cups, boxes, towels, etc. into cute, clever, and unique playthings. This toy kit upcycles(升级利用) materials that would otherwise go to waste, turning a recycling bin into a treasure container.“Our initial target was to deliver Toyi kits to only disadvantaged children in Turkish,” Atmaca told the media. But during a research conducted with around300 children, .she realized that the restriction on being creative went beyond any boundary. “I saw that everything was planned and shaped by grown-ups, blocking the kids' imagination in a significant way,” said Atmaca.Atmaca concluded that each kid needed space where he or she could freely create. She explained the entireprocess should be left to kids’ creativity, reminding teachers and all grown-ups that child-led play was an excellent way for children to develop lifelong skills.Toyi's creators are now considering distributing the kits to as many children as possible around the world through different international NGOs. Atmaca notes that for each Toyi kit sold out, they will also donate one kit toa disadvantaged child through different partnerships around the world.12. Why did Atmaca design Toyi at first?A. To win the famous IF Design Award.B. To help poor kids make their own toys.C. To protect the environment in Istanbul.D. To recycle all the waste in the dustbin.13. Which is probably the product made with the toy kit of Toyi?A. A new picture of a young boy.B. A computer with high technology.C. A treasure container from a dustbin:D. A six-armed “robot” from a water bottle.14. How do the toy kits help improve the children's ability?A. It provides the kids various types of toys.B. It offers space for the kids’ creative minds.C. It changes the poor kids' living conditions.D. It teaches the kids to share joys with others.15. What is the new target for Atmaca and her partners?A. Donating toykits to more poor children.B. Selling toy kits to every kid in the world.C. Designing new toy kits for kids and adults.D. Doing further research on the kids' demands.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。

AAlan Naiman was known for being very careful about how he spent his money. But even those closest to him had no knowledge of the fortune he quietly gathered and the last act he had planned.Naiman died of cancer at age 63 last January. The man from the American state of Washington gave most of his money to groups that help the poor, sick, disabled and abandoned children.He gave them $11 million. The large amount of his fortune shocked the groups that received his gifts and even his best friends. That is because Naiman had been known to repair his own shoes with duct tape.

Tour Route4.CGoldfish have pretty boring lives, so maybe it’s a good thing they can only concentrate for nine seconds! But according to a new research, humans are becoming like goldfish. Our attention span (时长) is getting shorter ...and it’s all because of technology.“We move quickly from one site to another on the web,” said Doctor Ted Selker, a computer scientist from Massachusetts, “and we are losing the ability to concentrate.” With millions of websites to choose from, the attention span of the average internet user is just seconds. There are other digital distractions（分心）too: email, instant messaging and quickie movies on websites.Some people are worried about the effect on young people. “You need time to understand and think about what you read,” said Julia Wood, from London. “Young people search the net all the time and their brains become full of useless information but there is no time to make sense of it. I am trying to persuade my pupils to read more books, so that they concentrate on one subject for longer.”Other teachers are trying more unusual methods to improve students’ concentration. Anne Savan, from Wales, was so worried about her students that she started playing Mozart during her science lessons. She says that it had an amazing effect: “The music made them calmer, and their concentration was much better.”But not everyone believes that there is a problem. Ray Cole, an educational psychologist says, “On the web, young people learn to make quick decisions about what is and isn’t worth reading. They might look at five unhelpful websites very quickly, before stopping and reading a sixth useful website more carefully. In a world with so much information available, this is an important skill.”8. Why does the writer mention “goldfish”?A. To introduce background.B. To compare two species.C. To introduce a topic.D. To suggest a way out.9. What may cause a shorter attention span according to Dr. Ted Selker?A. Skipping around the internet.B. Time to digest information.C. Traditional methods of reading.D. Making decisions.10. What will help students overcome a short attention span?A. Composing music.B. Texting messagesC. Reading more books.D. Watching quickie movies.11. What is Ray Cole’s attitude towards looking through websites quickly?A. Cautious.B. Unfavorable.C. Skeptical.D. Supportive.DThe idea of progress started to flower in the 17th century. At that time, many wise thinkers believed that man liberated by reason would rise to ever greater heights of achievement. The many expressions of human nature would be the engines of progress: language, business, science, and moral sensibility （道德感）. Unfortunately, most of those engines have failed to bring the desired human progress.The modern age has belonged to material progress and its main source has been science. Science gives people huge power to change the world. But can people be trusted to use it always for good? Think of biotechnology and information technology. And it is not just that scientific progress does not deliver the emotional good. People also fear that mankind is failing to manage science properly. The forests are disappearing; the ice is melting; privacy is leaking; life is becoming a depressing march in an ugly world.The point is not that science is harmful, but that scientific progress needs to be mapped tidily onto human progress. That relies on moral sensibility in its widest sense. This liberal force offers hope for a better future. The very idea of moral sensibility probably sounds out-of-date. Butresearchers find that people desire a sense of moral purpose which would give life dignity. People want to determine how the world works, not always to be determined by it. Moral sensibility is why people will suffer for their beliefs， and why acts of noble self-sacrifice are so powerful．It is admitted that our moral ideals will never be realized completely. But sometimes, however imperfectly, we can make progress. Human dignity requires the love of ideals for their own sake, but nothing requires that the love be returned. Human progress is neither guaranteed nor hopeless. Instead, it is up to us.12. What do we know about human progress from Paragraph 1?A. Human beings were greatly liberated by the idea of progress.B. Language failed to serve as an expression of human progress.C. People began to think about human progress in the 17th century.D. Many thinkers in the 17th century were optimistic about human progress.13. Why does science fail to bring the desired human progress?A. Scientific progress does not give people dignity.B. Proper governing is not guaranteed in the use of science.C. Science is misunderstood because of improper management.D. The engine of progress is sensitive and unreliable.14. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Depressing life.B. Harmful science.C. Human progress.D. Moral sensibility.15．What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To stress the function of the idea of progress.B. To express concern about the death of moral sensibility.C. To show the importance of moral sensibility in human progress.D. To blame the harm of material progress to human development.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

I was in the classrooms, but I wasn’t there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn’t read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation.I was determined it wouldn’t happen again. Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Now I was 41 years old. One day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr. Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you?” he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me,” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy he’d once encouraged.“I’m so glad I had a chance to see you,” I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn’t all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well,” I added.The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia (诵读困难症). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.24. Why did the author want to hide?A. Because he felt sorry for himself.B. Because he hated being laughed at.C. Because he couldn’t read at all.D. Because he didn’t have a ti cket.25. Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?A. Considerate and dutiful.B. Demanding and enthusiastic.C. Emotional and dedicated.D. Friendly and ambitious.26. Why couldn’t the author read before meeting Mr.C reech?A. Because his reading age was not long enough.B. Because his parents didn’t teach him how to read.C. Because he was afraid of reading before the class.D. Because he didn’t have inner driving force to learn to read.27. What can we infer from the passage?A. Mr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.B. The author had become a published author and an active speaker.C. Dyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.D. The author was grateful to Mr. Creech.CA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of indivi dual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically, it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”28. Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met while making the roboticfly?A. They did not have sufficient fund.B. No ready-made components were available.C. There was no model in their mind.D. It was hard for them to assemble the components.29. What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4?A. The robotic fly has been put into wide application.B. The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system.C. Information from many sources can be collected by the robotic fly.D. The robotic fly can just fly in limited areas at present.30. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Wood’s design can replace animals in some experiments.B. Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C. The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.D. There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.31. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Development of Robotic FlyB. Robotic Fly Promotes Engineering ScienceC. Harvard’s Efforts in Making Robotic FlyD. Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life InsectDThe joy of absenceHow some companies fight the curse of presenteeism (出勤主义)?RONALD REAGAN famously joked that “it’s true hard work never kille d anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?” Beyond a certain level, extra effort seems to be self-defeating. Studies suggest that, after around 50 hours a week, employee productivity declines sharply.But that doesn’t stop some managers from demanding t hat workers stay chained to their desk for long periods. Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba, the Chinese e-commerce group, recently praised the 996 model, where employees work from 9a.m. to 9p.m., six days a week, as a “great opportunity”. Yet presenteeism is the curse of the modern office worker.There will be days when you do not have much to do; perhaps because you are waiting for someone else in a different department, or a different company, to respond to a request. As the clock ticks past 5p.m., there may be no purpose in staying at your desk. But you can see your boss hard at work and, more importantly, they can see you. So you make an effort to look busy.The consequence is often wasted effort. Rather than work hard, you slave to make bosses think that you are. But presenteeism has more serious consequences. As well as reduced productivity, this can mean greater medical expenses for the employer. According to a study in the Journal of Occupation and Environmental Medicine, these costs can be six times higher for employers than the costs of absenteeism among workers.None of this is to say that employers are not called to expect workers to be in the office for a proper period of time. Surely there will be a need for some (preferably short) meetings. Dealing with colleagues face-to-face creates a feeling of togetherness, allows for a useful exchange of ideas and enables workers to have a better sense of their mutual needs.Turning an office into a prison, with inmates (囚犯) allowed home for the evenings, does nothing for creativity that is increasingly demanded of office workers as routine tasks are automated. To be productive you need presence of mind, not being present in the flesh.32. Why does the author mention Ronald Reagan’s joke in Para. 1?A. To encourage people to grasp the chance to work hard.B. To show that hard work is harmless.C. To introduce the topic of the passage.D. To praise Ronald Reagan’s accomplished joking skills.33. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence?A. Extra effort causes problems or difficulties.B. With extra effort, we can defeat anybody.C. We should say no to extra effort.D. Extra effort isn’t necessarily helpful.34. According to the passage, which of the following situation is helpful to the company?A. Your team has a ten-minute meeting after work for an urgent problem.B. You don’t go home until 7:30 p.m. because your boss is in his office and he can see you.C. The manager tours the engineering department at 7:30 p.m. to check people are at their desks.D. You attend the office even when you suffer lower back pain.35. Which of the following opinions agrees with the passage?A. Some managers expect workers tie themselves up with a chain to their desks.B. Reduced productivity can mean greater medical expenses for the employer.C. With growing demand of creativity on office workers, a prison-like office is not a wise option.D. Presence of mind guarantees your productivity.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But what they did makes us feel we are truly not alone in this fight.”With binoculars (双筒望远镜) in hand, Rose and her two sisters, Grace, 5 and Sophia, 2 sat by the window and waved at their garbage men, Olsen and Fritz, as they drove by on their weekly route.Olsen, 29, and Fritz, 24, told ABC News that the girl’s smiling faces are what they lookforward to while working. They even left Halloween candy for the girls this year to show their appreciation. They hope that more and more people can understand and support their work.But weeks later, Evenson wrote Olsen and Fritz a note explaining that little Rose wouldn’t be able to wave to them for a while since she'd be undergoing chemotherapy (化疗). Rose had been diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer in September.“As a father of three, it changed my outlook on things,” Olsen said. “It opened my eyes…you don’t know what someone else is going through.”Fritz said he cried when he read the note. “I got to the chemo part and there were tears running down my face,” he recalled. “I don’t have any children of my own, but I can imagine if someone very close to me is diagnosed as cancer, I’ll be heartbroken.”“Rose is being treated at Sanford Children’s Hospital in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

It is a mistake to think that we'd make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical(合逻辑的) thinking leads to sound decision- making. It's true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.In the real world though, it's worth realizing that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and what's more, it's probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if you're a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a worrywart (杞人忧天者) , is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don't bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears — do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear, you meet the challenge in full readiness.When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem. No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview, you needn't see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves (神经紧张) are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.8．What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?A．It can enable us to be more focused.B．It can stop us from thinking logically.C．It can make us more willing to take risks.D．It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.9．What can we learn from the passage?A．Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.B．Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.C．Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.D．Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.10．How should we deal with anxiety in the author's opinion?A．Regard it as our enemy. B．Take action to control it.C．Avoid being defeated by it. D．Treat it as a minor feeling.11．What is the theme of the passage?A．Effective ways to prevent anxiety. B．Unexpected benefits of anxiety. C．Tips on how to keep a good mood. D．Common misunderstandings about anxiety.COPENHAGEN -Greenland on Friday dismissed the idea that it might be up for sale after reports that US President Donald Trump had privately discussed with his advisers the idea of buying the world's biggest island. "We are open for business, but we're not for sale, Greenland's foreign minister Ane Lone Bagger told Reuters.Trump is due to visit Copenhagen in September and the Arctic will be on the agenda (议程) during meetings with the prime ministers of Denmark and Greenland.Talk of a Greenland purchase was first reported by the Wall Street Journal. Two sources familiar with the situation told Reuters that the idea had been laughed off by some advisers as a joke but was taken more seriously by others in the White House. Danish politicians on Friday poured scorn on the idea. "It has to be an April Fool's joke. Totally out of season," former prime minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said on Twitter.Greenland, a self-ruling part of Denmark located between the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, is dependent on Danish economic support. It handles its own domestic affairs while Copenhagen looks after defense and foreign policy."I am sure a majority in Greenland believes it is better to have a relation to Denmark than the United States, in the long term," Aaja Chemnitz Larsen, Danish MP (国会议员) from Greenland’s second-largest party Inuit Ataqatigiit (IA) , told Reuters. “My immediate thought is ' No, thank you'," she said.Greenland is gaining attention from global super powers including China, Russia and the United States due to its strategic location and its mineral resources.Martin Lidegaard, senior lawmaker of the Danish Social Liberal Party and a former foreign minister, called the idea "a grotesque (怪诞的) proposal" which had no basis in reality. “We are ta lking about real people and you can't just sell Greenland like an old colonial power," he told Reuters. "But what we can take seriously is that the US stakes (利害关系) and interest in the Arctic is significantly on the rise and they want a much bigger influence," he added. 12．Which of the following is TRUE about Greenland?A．It is short of natural resources.B．It is an autonomous Danish territory.C．It is dependant on American economic support.D．It possesses its own defense and foreign policy.13．What is the possible meaning of the underlined word "scorn" in Para. 3?A．Words that show approval of or admiration for something.B．A situation in which it is very difficult to decide what to do.C．The feeling that something is stupid or does not deserve respect.D．The quality making someone continue doing sth. even when this is difficult.14．What does Martin Lidegaard mainly want to express in the last paragraph?A．The profit of selling Greenland to America.B．The difficulty in selling Greenland to America.C．The proper process of the Greenland purchase.D．The real motivation of the Greenland purchase.15．Which of the following can be the best title for the news report?A．Greenland tells Trump it is not for saleB．Trump favours the idea of buying GreenlandC．Greenland is gaining attention from global super powersD．Trump to meet prime ministers of Denmark and Greenland二、完形填空A TV series called Fresh Off the Boat is quite popular.

Without using stereotypes (老套故事), it has 26 to build well-rounded, dramatic characters that are 27 enough to be from an Asian family. For example, Eddie’s mom always pushes her children to be28 at school.

It can have a physical effect on us because it is closely linked with emotion, perhaps even more than the abstract nature of words. The number one reason why people listen to music is to adjust their emotional state. 36．Numerous studies leave us in no doubt that music can affect our mood state and stress level.37．For example, they have found that background music shuts out distractions. It calms them before a large task and then they can stay focused for longer. Also it can help their creativity and make studying more enjoyable.38．Firstly, it depends on what the task it. The more difficult the challenge is, the more likely background music will interrupt the learning process. For less challengi ng learning tasks, music can greatly assist in providing a positive learning state. Secondly, it depends on the characteristics of the music we'll come to in a moment. And thirdly, extroverts (性格外向者) enjoy and often require more external stimulation (刺激) and are likely to handle background noise better than those who are quiet and shy.Actually, it's not about the genre (类型) of music, but the natural musical characteristics which aid or disrupt study. One of these characteristics is the tempo (拍子). The recommended tempo for background music is in the range 70-110 beats per minute, slightly faster than the heartbeat at rest.39．And very slow music lowers the heartbeat, creating a state that might be too relaxed for study purposes.In addition, lyrics (歌词) are the most distracting aspect of background musical listening.40．More particularly, studies have found that the most distracting background is fast and familiar vocal music, chosen and liked by the listener.A．Music is part of every culture in the world.B．In a very real sense, music connects us with our inner selves.C．Music, like language, is a unique human form of communication.D．They compete with the same brain regions that process language.E．Fast music raises the heartbeat , making one unable to focus on study.F．Moreover, those who like studying with background music have found a lot of benefits. G．There are a few factors that determine the effects of music on studying.四、语法填空阅读下列材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式。
