2016年山东省威海市高三一模考试英语试题含答案第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AAt the age of ten I could not figure out what this Elvis Presley guy had that the rest of us boys did not have．I mean，he had a head，two arms and two legs，just like the rest of us．About nine o’clock on Satu rday morning I decided to ask Eugene Correthers，one of the older boys，what it was that made this Elvis guy so special．He told me that it was Elvis’ wavy hair and the way he moved his body．About half an hour later all the boys in the orphanage(孤儿院)were called to the main dining-room and told we were all going to downtown Jacksonville，Florida to get a new pair of Buster Brown shoes and a haircut．That is when I got this big idea，which hit me like a ton of bricks. If the Elvis hair cut was the big secret，then that’s what I was going to get．A11 the way to town I told everybody, including the matron(女管家)from the orphanage who was taking us to town，that I was going to look just like Elvis Presley and that I would learn to move around just like he did and that I would be rich and famous one day, just like him．When I got my new Buster Brown shoes, I could hardly wait for my new hair cut and now that I had my new Busier Brown shoes I would be very happy to go back to the orphanage and practice being like Elvis.We finally arrived at the big barber shop，where they cut our hair for free because we were orphans(孤儿)．I looked at the barber and said，―I want an Elvis hair cut. Can you make my hair like Elvis?‖I asked him，with a big smile on my face．―Let's just see what we c an do for you，little man，‖he said．I was so happy when he started to cut my hair．Just as he started to cut my hair, the matron signed for him to come over to where she was standing．She whispered something into his ear and then he shook his head，like he was telling her ―No‖．Then he told me they were not allowed to give us Elvis hair cuts．Then I saw my hair falling onto the floor．21．In the author’s eyes，Elvis Presley was_________．A．disgusting B．admirable C．ambitious D．dynamic22．From the passage，we can know that______________．1A．Buster Brown was more appealing than Elvis PresleyB．An Elvis hair cut cost the orphans a lot of moneyC．The matron did not want the boy to have an Elvis hair cutD．The barber was unwilling to give the boy an Elvis hair cut23．We can learn from the underlined sentence that the boy was______．A．excited to have an Elvis hair cutB．worried to think about the secretC．anxious to remove the ton of bricksD．careful to seize the chance24．How would the boy probably feel when he walked out of the barber shop?A．Delighted．B．Guilty．C．Self-satisfied．D．Depressed．BIt is probably the strangest sport anyone has ever invented. And at first sight, it looks like the easiest. Competitors have to do two things. The first is to stand still. The second is to place their hands anywhere on the body of a car, and keep it there.This is where things start getting difficult. Lots of people are doing the same thing. And the winner of the ―handathon‖ contest is the person who ca n carry on doing it for the longest time. That person gets to own the car.It still seems to be an easy thing to do. At the beginning it is. Anyone can stand still. But when the contest has been going for four or five days, standing still seems like the most difficult job in the world. And keeping the hand in place over this time becomes an act ofserious attention. After a few days, the hand seems to belong to someone else—someone who wants to go home and get some sleep.2Competitors are allowed to take a five-minute break every hour to eat, drink or do whatever else is necessary. No one is allowed to lean on the car for support. Winners need to be able to show great powers of attention. They also need to be able to develop special skills.Maybe the popularity of the handathon is due to the fact that it is not necessary to be a trained athlete to enter. Entrants in the Longview handathon certainly don’t seem to do much preparation. Most say they will prepare by ―getting lots of sleep‖. Others say they will―eat healthy food‖ or ―pray for success‖. The whole event gives ordinary people the chance to do something interesting and win something in the end.Handathons are competitions, but there is little rivalry(敌对)between competitors. They help each other out and keep each other’s spirits up. People who drop out early return with food, drink and encouragement.25. The reason why the sport is called ―handathon‖ is that competitors.A. cover a long distanceB. keep one hand in place for longC. wave hands as long as possibleD. do the same thing as in a marathon26. What ability is likely to be needed most in a handathon?A. Standing without any support.B. Not leaning on the car.C. Eating and drinking in five minutes.D. Having strong powers of attention.27. Why is handathon popular?A. Someone can win with special training.B. It doesn’t need to make any preparation.3C. Anyone who is interested can join in it.D. People get along well with each other in it.28. Which of the following about handathon is NOT right?A. The person who takes part in it should stand still.B. The person who takes part in it has to place his hands anywhere on the body of a car, and keep it there.C. The person who takes part in it can have a break during the course of the competition.D. Handathons are competitions, so competitors don’t encourage each other.CFilm director James Cameron first became interested in sea exploration when he was a little boy. His love for the ocean grew after he made the 1989 undersea adventure film The Abyss and the 1997 blockbuster Titanic, one of the most successful movies of all time. Following that big success, James Cameron decided to put his film career on hold to become an explorer.In 2012, James Cameron made a journey to the deepest spot in the Mariana Trench, known as Challenger Deep. And now the great journey has been made into a documentary film, named James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D.In James Cameron’s fantasy films, such as Avatar and The Abyss, the unexplored areas are decorated in colors and full of danger. But on his dive into Challenger Deep, the reality proved far different: white, deserted and dull.―I felt like I had gone to another planet,‖ Cameron said after ret urning from the cold and dark place in the Western Pacific Ocean, nearly 7 miles below the surface. ―I really have a sense of being separated and realize how tiny I am down in this big, black and unexplored place.‖Cameron captured(获取) the moon-like landscape of the deep sea and documented the sea creatures he observed in the ocean.James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D tells the story of Cameron’s journey. It is a film about determination, danger and the ocean’s greatest depths. Th e movie shows a unique insight into Cameron’s world when he makes his dream reality and makes history by becoming the first per son to travel alone to the deepest4point on the planet.It’s an exciting film and inspiring reminder that our beautiful planet s till has a lot to explore. 29．When did James Cameron become interested in the ocean?A. When he was in his childhood.B. After his films The Abyss and Titanic.C. After he achieved great success in movies.D. When he began to explore the deep sea alone.30．What is the reality about unexplored ocean?A. Colorful and dangerous.B. Boring and deserted.C. White and attractive.D. Small and dull.31．What can we know about James Cameron’s Deep-sea Challenger 3D?A. It is a film about the exploration of ocean creatures.B. It is a stor y about Cameron’s film-making dream.C. It aims to attract more people to explore the deep sea.D. It tells us about James’ journey into Challenger Deep.32．What is the best title for this passage?A. The great dream of a film directorB. A film director exploring deep seaC. James Cameron and his documentary filmD. The first person to make films about the deep sea5DNearing the age of 101 has not slowed down one Japanese woman．In fact，in the swimming pool—she is only getting faster．Recently，a 100-year-ol d Japanese woman became the world’s first centenarian to complete a 1，500-meter freestyle swimming competition in a 25-meter poo1．Her name is Mieko Nagaoka．Ms．Nagaoka set a world record for her age group at a recent Japan Masters Swimming Association event in the western city of Matsuyama．She swam the race in 1hour，15 minutes and 54 seconds．By comparison，the overall female world record holder completed the same distance in just under 15 and a half minutes．But that swimmer，Katie Ledecky，is only 17 years old．And Ms．Nagao．ka was not competing against her．In fact，Ms．Nagaoka was the only competitor in the 100-104 year old category．Her race was not a race of speed but of endurance，or not giving up．Breaking swimming records is nothing new to Ms．Nagaoka．So far she has broken 25 records．But she began competing when she was much younger—at 88.Ms．Nagaoka sufferred a knee injury in her 80s，so she began swimming to help her body recover．Since her first international swimming competition，she hasn’t looked back，except maybe to see if her competition is catching up．In 2002．at a masters swim meet in New Zealand，Ms．Nagaoka took the bronze medal in the 50-meter backstroke．In 2004，she won three silver medals at an Italian swim meet.Masters swimming is a special class of competitive swimming to promote health and friendship among participants．Swimmers compete within age groups of five years.Japan has a large number of people who live beyond 100 years old．Until she passed away this month，the oldest person in the world was also from Japan．Misao Okawa was born in 1 898．She said her secrets for longevity，or long life，were good genes，regular sleep，sushi and exercise.33．The underlined word ―centenarian‖refers to someone who is____．A．from Japan B．100 or olderC．an old competitor D. a new swimmer634．It can be inferred from the passage that_____．A．some people are born with longevity genesB．people who like swimming live longerC．the Japanese are interested in swimmingD．woman usually live much longer than men35．Which can best explain the spirit of Ms．Nagaoka?A．Not to advance is to go back．B．After a storm comes a calm.C．The early bird catches the worm．D．Keep on going，never give up.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）At times, our worries and anxieties can defeat us. 36 Here is a brief list of techniques that you can use to help gain a better viewpoint on things during the anxious moments.37 A person should take a deep breath and try to find something to do for a few minutes to get their mind off the problem. A person could get some fresh air, listen to some music, or do an activity that will give them a fresh perspective on things.Remember that our fearful thoughts are made to seem worse and can make the problem worse. 38 When unexpectedly having thoughts that make you fearful or anxious, challenge these thoughts by asking yourself positive questions that will maintain objectivity and common sense.Be smart in how you deal with fears and anxieties. Do not try to deal with everything all at once. When facing a current or upcoming task that makes you anxious, break the task into small ones. 39Remember that all the worrying in the world will not change anything. Most of what you worry about never comes true. 40 Then you should leave7everything else in the hands of God.It is not easy to deal with all the fears and worries. When your fears and anxieties have the best of you, try to calm down and then get the facts of the situation. The key is to take it slow. All you can do is doing your best each day, hope for the best, and when something does happen, take it easy. Take it one step at a time and things will work out well at last.A. When feeling anxious, stop what you are doing and try to do something relaxing.B. This will give you the confidence to manage your anxiety.C. Instead of worrying about something that probably won’t happen, concentrate on what you are able to do.D. The next time you fell depressed, review your list and think about the good things that you have in your life.E. A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking.F. In addition, our worries can change our understanding of what is reality and what is not.G. Completing these smaller tasks once at a time will make the stress more manageable and increase your chances of success.第三部分第一节完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)There Really Was a Santa ClausAnn worked for a big company.

2016届高三上学期期中考试英语试题
2015-2016学年度上学期考试第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AWho’s in control of your life? Who is pulling your string? For the majority of us, it’s other people—society, colleagues, friends, family or our religious community. We learned this way of operating when we were very young, of course. We were brainwashed. We discovered that feeling important and feeling accepted was a nice experience and so we learned to do everything we could to make other people like us. As Oscar Wilde puts it, “Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else’s opinions, their lives a mimicry(模仿), their passions a quotation.”So when people tell us how wonderful we are, it makes us feel good. We long for this good feeling like a drug. Therefore, we are so eager for the approval of others that we live unhappy and limited lives, failing to do the things we really want to. Just as drug addicts and alcoholics live worsened lives to keep getting their fix (一剂毒品). We worsen our own existence to get our own constant fix of approval.But, just as with any drug, there is a price to pay. The price of the approval drug is freedom—the freedom to be ourselves. The truth is that we cannot control what other people think. People have their own agenda, and they come with their own baggage and, in the end, they're more interested in themselves than in you. Furthermore, if we try to live by the opinions of others, we will build our life on sinking sand. Everyone has a different way of thinking, and people change their opinions allthe time. The person who tries to please everyone will only end up getting exhausted and probably pleasing no one in the process.So how can we take back control? I think there’s only one way—make a conscious decision to stop caring what other people think. We should guide ourselves by means of a set of values---not values imposed（强加）from the outside by others, but innate values which come from within. If we are driven by these values and not by the changing opinions and value systems of others, we will live a more authentic, effective, purposeful and happy life.21．What Oscar Wilde says implies that _____________.A. most people’s thoughts are controlled by othersB. most people have a variety of thoughtsC. we have thoughts similar to those of othersD. other people’s thoughts are more important22．What does the author try to argue in the third paragraph ?A.

HK $ 135327．To buy tickets at Hong Kong Disneyland Ticket Express on Sundays, you have to get there beforeA. 10:30 pmB. 6:00 pmC.8:00 pmD. 5:00 pmCThousands of taxi drivers in Shenyang, Liaoning province, reportedly blocked streets with their vehicles on Sunday in protest against unlicensed vehicles using taxi-hiring apps (打车软件) and apps-based car rental companies providing passenger services, including high-end cars. Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal of the fuel subsidy by the government, their main complaint was the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car services companies.On Wednesday, news reports came that Beijing transport authorities will take measures to stop the illegal “taxi business” of private cars through the newly rising Internet apps, following the footsteps of Shenyang and Nanjing.It is not yet clear how the Shenyang city government will handle the issue and whether it will declare the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache, a taxi-hiring app provider backed by Tencent Holdings, and Kuaidi Dache illegal. But Shanghai transport regulators have set a rule, by banning Didi Zhuanche, or car services offered by Didi Dache in December.Such regulations will cause a setback to the car-hiring companies and investors that are waiting to cash in on the potentially booming business. Just last month, Didi Dache got $700 million in funding from global investors, including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings, Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent. Besides, the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finalize its latest round of funding after getting $800 million from global investors.Regulatory uncertainties, however, could cast a shadow on the future of theInternet-based car-hiring services, which have become popular in most of China’s big cities. To be fair, these companies’ business model is anything but bad. For example, Didi Zhuanche works side by side with established car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for businesspeople through the Internet and mobile phone apps.Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services. Hence, it is hard to define it as illegal and ban it.28．Why did taxi drivers in Shenyang block the streets with their vehicles?A. Because they wanted the authority to increase their driving allowances.B. Because they wanted to be taught how to use the taxi-hiring apps.C. Because they wanted to make their main complaints known to the authority.D. Because they wanted to appeal to passengers not to hire the private cars.29．The author’s attitude to banning internet car-hiring service is______.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. unclear30．Which of the following statements is false according to the passage?A. The problem referred to in the passage exists in all citiesB. App-based car rental is functional to some degreeC. The government should regulate the app-based car rental marketD. Didi Dache is a China-foreign joint company31．we can learn from the passage that _____.A. Shenyang forbade apps-based car rental companiesB. Shanghai is the second city banning Didi ZhuancheC. some international investment companies have strong faith in the future of apps-basedcar rental companiesD. it is not difficult to picture the apps-based car rental companies illegalDGenerally speaking, government regulations normally ban anything from smoking in public places to parking in certain zones. But officials in the Brazilian town of Biritiba Mirim, 70km (45miles) east of Sao Paulo, have gone far beyond that. They plan to prohibit residents from dying early because the local cemetery(墓地) has reached full capacity.There’s no more room to bury the dead, they can’t be cremated(火化) and laws forbid a new cemetery. So the mayor has proposed a strange solution: outlaw death. Mayor Roberto Pereira says the bill is meant as a protest against federal regulations that prohibit new or expanded cemeteries in preservation areas. “They have not taken local demands into consideration”, he claims.A 2003 decree(法令) by Brazil’s National Environment Council forbids burial grounds in protected areas. Mr. Pereira wants to build a new cemetery, but the project has been stoppedbecause 98% of Biritiba Mirim is considered as a preservation area.Biritiba Mirim, a town of 28,000 inhabitants, not only wants to prohibit residents from passing away. The bill also calls on people to take care of their health in order to avoid death. “I haven’t got a job, nor am I healthy. And now they say I can’t die. That’s ridiculous,” Amarido do Prado, an unemployed resident said.The city council is expected to vote on the regulation next week. “Of course the bill is laughable, illegal, and will never be approved,” said Gilson Soares de Campos, an assistant of the mayor. “But can you think of a better r esolution to persuade the government to change the environmental decree that is prohibiting us from building a new cemetery?” The bill states that “offenders will be held responsible for their acts.” However, it does not say what the punishment will be.32．What is the bill to be proposed by the officials in Biritiba Mirim?A. Ban on building a new cemetery.B. Ban on parking in certain zones.C. Forbidding buried grounds in preservation.D. Prohibiting residents from dying early.33．What can we infer from t he phrase “have gone far beyond that” in the first paragraph?A. The officials in Biritiba Mirim have made these regulations.B. The officials in Biritiba Mirim have been to many places around the world.C. The bill to be proposed by officials in Biritiba Mirim is much too unexpected.D. The officials in Biritiba Mirim have built too many cemeteries in their town. 34．What’s the attitude of the mayor of Biritiba Mirim towards the federal regulations?A. He remains silent about them.B. He gives strong backing to them.C. He objects to them.D. He asks the residents for advice on them.35．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. The mayor of the town wants to build a new cemetery against federal regulation.B. The residents of the town sing high praise for the bill.C. No better resolution of the problems has been thought out.D. The government is going to change the environmental decree.第二节七选五 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分l0分)A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon.

AChina’s economy grows，salaries rise；and more city residents feel the need to hit the roadin what has become a symbol of individuality and freedom—a car．China has a growing love affair with the car．This is clear at the Beijing Asian Games Village Automobile Exchange，where more and more people come to look and，increasingly,to buy．The Asian Games Village Automobile Exchange is the biggest car dealership in Beijing．General manager Guo Yong says the business sells more than 2,000 cars each week．Guo says it is much easier for Chinese consumers to buy a car now．Also，the emergence of less expensive domestic brands like Chery and BYD means more Chinese can afford cars．For decades，most Chinese city residents have got about by bicycle or public buses and trains．Now，in many areas，the number of new cars is growing faster than the road system，leaving city streets jammed with traffic．Guo Liang has wanted to buy a car for a decade，and he will be the first in his family to own one．He is not prevented by Beijing’s traffic jams．Guo says if the traffic is too bad，he will use the ear for leisure or holidays with his family．World Bank transportation specialist Shomik Mendhiratta says a car is something people in any society would be eager to own．“Getting a car makes people feel like they have arrived in the middle class．”Mendhiratta said．“It has got a huge status associated with it．It’s a fantastic thing to have，if you have never had a car．A car gives you a mobility that’s unbelievable．”21．Which of the following doesn’t a car represent，according to the passage? A．Status．B．Freedom．C．Individuality．D．Opportunity．22．What contributes to the affordability of cars，according to the passage?A．Factories produce more cars．B．The prices of imported cars are lower．C．There are more foreign car factories．D．Some domestic cars are not so expensive．23．What’s the problem caused by the growth of new cars?A．It makes people less healthy．B．It makes city streets jammed with traffic．C．It makes people often go to work late．D．It makes people belong to the middle class．BAmerica is losing its moral values at an alarming rate．There was a time，not too long ago，when most young Americans had a common goal，which was to get a good job，own a home and raise a family．That was considered happiness．People knew what they could afford and stayed within their means．Children were taught to respect authority．Parents were role models for their children．They would never let their children associate with another child that they considered to be a bad influence．And instead of just allowing them to grow up，they actually raised them with strong morals and beliefs，instilling(灌输)the values of God，family,and country．But today, America is full of exhausted dads and single moms who，instead of taking on their role as a parent，instilling moral character and values in their children，have lots of debt upon themselves．As a result，they are too busy working to pay these debts，rather than focus on the real needs of their children．Instead of giving their children the parental guidance they need，they shower them with expensive electronic gadgets(数码产品)．Most of the time，especially in single parent homes，the children are completely unsupervised．Without proper guidance and supervision(监督)，a child simply wanders aimlessly through their childhood，learning their values from only God knows who．Is it any wonder then that America is losing its moral values?The children are our future leaders．How can they lead if they don’t know the way?Even animals teach their young．Therefore，the young people of today need to listen to the older generation and start making some adjustments．Your children should be your primary concern．They need far more than mere food and shelter．They need careful guidance．Moral values need to be instilled while they are young．24．Americans used to give their children_______．A．much freedom B．proper guidance C．1ots of money D．expensive toys 25．Why are American parents exhausted today?A．They bear a heavy debt burden．B．They are under great work pressure．C．They are tired with raising children．D．They have fierce competition in their work．26．What tone(语气，口吻)does the author use in talking about today’s American parents? A．Grateful．B．Humorous．C．Disapproving．D．Guilty．27．The last paragraph is written to_______．A．make comparisons B．give more examplesC．analyze the problem D．give some adviceCBlack Friday is the day following Thanksgiving Day in the United States．In recent years，it has been regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season and most major shops have opened extremely early and offered promotional sales(促销)．Black Friday is not an official holiday,but many employees and schools have both Thanksgiving and the following Friday off，followed by a weekend．It has been the busiest shopping day of they ear since 2005．The day’s name began in Philadelphia，where it originally was used to describe huge crowds and heavy traffic that would occur on the day after Thanksgiving．The use of the name started before 1961．Later all alternative explanation was made：“Black Friday”indicates the point at which retailers(零售商)begin to turn a profit or are“in the black”．For many years，it was common for retailers to open at 6：00 a.m．，but in the late 2000s many had opened at 5：00 a．m．or even 4：00 a．m．．This was taken to a new degree in 2011，when several retailers opened at midnight for the first time．Black Friday Shopping is known for attracting aggressive crowds，with annual reports of terrible noise and crowds of people trampling(踩伤)on other shoppers in an attempt to get the best deal on a product before supplies run out．28．What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 ?A．People stay at home to spend the holiday．B．All people can have a relaxed Black Friday．C．Black Friday can increase the number of shoppers．D．Altogether people have 3 days off during Black Friday weekend．29．Black Friday originally referred to______．A．financial loss B．a busy shopping dayC．heavy traffic and crowds D．sad feelings and moments30．Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase in Paragraph 2?A．gaining money B．1osing money C．growing weak D．promoting goods 31．What’s the main reason for aggressive crowds on Black Friday nowadays?A．That people are eager to return home．B．That sellers try to make shopping time longer．C．That supplies are too limited to meet shoppers’needs．D．That shoppers rush to buy the cheapest goods．DTheir beautiful call suggests the arrival of spring，but the routes taken by cuckoos(杜鹃)during their annual migration(迁徙)have remained a mystery．Now,though，scientists from the British Trust for Omithology(BTO)have revealed the details of their remarkable 10，000-mile journey，with the help of tracking devices．Five male birds were caught in Norfolk last May and fitted with satellite-tagged “backpacks’’before being released．The scientists then monitored their progress over 12 months as they flew to Africa in the autumn，and returned in the spring．The project was carried out to discover why every year fewer of the birds return to Britain．Between 1995 and 2010，the population of cuckoos spending sumnler here fell by almost half,and the number is continuing to decline．Previously,the lack of information about the cuckoos’long migration has hamoered the understanding of how to help conserve the birds．Earlier this year，it was reported that cuckoos arrived in the UK much earlier than normal．Their call was recorded by ornithologists(鸟类专家)as early as February,a month ahead of their usual arrival．Like all migrating animals，cuckoos respond to the changing seasons．They depend on lush plants to provide the fruit and food for insects that they feed on．This reliance on seasonal patternsmeans that a changing climate could make an already challenging journey impossible for them．32．What is the main purpose of the project?A．To track cuckoos’1 0，000-mile journey．B．To better understand the habits of cuckoos．C．To find out what happens during cuckoos’journey．D．To discover why the population of cuckoos is declining．33．The underlined word“hampered”in Paragraph 3 probably means_____．A．prevented B．deepened C．improved D．affected34．When do cuckoos usually arrive in Britain?A．In January．B．InFebruary．C．InMarch．D．In April．35．Cuckoos arrived in the UK much earlier than normal probably because of_____．A．1acking food B．changing climateC．changing routes D．cold spring in the UK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。
