The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.Questions are based on the following passage.音频11.A. Napping may help prevent seniors’ memory loss.B. Sleep is good for us both mentally and physically.C. Many Americans do not want to admit they take a nap.D. Taking naps is very common in other parts of the world.12.A. They are afraid of becoming lazy.B. They don’t think napping is common.C. They are too energet ic to need a nap.D. They don’t want to be considered weak.13.A. Napping is not as effective for people with sleep disorders.B. Napping cafes have been quite common in American cities.C. Resting in the middle of the work day may cost a lot of money.D. Many Americans are changing their offices into napping rooms.【答案】11. A 12. D 13. A【解析】March 16 is International Sleep Day. And we should all celebrate the act of sleeping. Studies have shown that a good night’s rest helps us stay healthy, bot h mentally and physically. And researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning.But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? Short periods of sleep may help older people fight off age-related memory loss, says a recent study on napping.Many Americans do nap. But one-third of all adults in the United States have sleep disorders. So, someone who naps as a way of paying off a sleep debt may not experience the same improvements from napping as a healthy, well-rested person would.Also, many people may not want to admit that they take a nap. They may think that napping shows they are weak or lack energy. That only children, the very old, sick or lazy people nap is not an uncommon opinion.However, that may be changing. Many offices now offer napping rooms, and napping cafes are appearing in many U.S. cities, including Washington, D.C.While resting in the middle of the work day may seem like a luxury to Americans, napping is very much part of a normal, everyday life in other parts of the world.Questions:What does the recent study show?Why do many Americans refuse to admit they take a nap?What is implied in the passage?【11题详解】此题为听力题,解析略。

Reading comprehension(阅读理解)(共50分)A.Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)(共12分)Who has seen Yeti?This mysterious human-like animal lives in and around Asia’s high Himalayan Mountains.Or does he?For years,stories of the Yeti have attracted the interest of explorers and adventurer from around the world. In the local cultures of the Himalayan people, old stories of the famous Yeti are everywhere. Many stories say the Yeti is not an animal, but perhaps a half-ape(半猿), half human intelligent animal. No one can say for sure. What we do only know is that the Yeti is a powerful mix of fact and fiction.Over150years ago,Europeans curious about the Yeti began to enter China.They were looking for something to prove that the Yeti existed. They hoped the photograph, or maybe even catch,a real-life Yeti.Over the years,many explorers saw large unexplained foot prints in the snow. Several European climbers even reported seeing a hairy, ape-like animal from a distance.The search for the Yeti didn’t become so popular alter. Yeti fur “found” by various climbers was examined by scientists and proved to be unreal. People began to question the existence of the Yeti.In1998,the Chinese government had to stop some activities of a nature reserve(保护区) which was doing great business by inviting tourists to buy tickets and hunt the Yeti. The reserve even offered large prices for anyone lucky enough to catch a Yeti!Clearly,basic human curiosity(好奇心) keeps the Yeti myth alive today. Plenty of unexplained footprints, bodies and stories continue to feed out curiosity as well. However, nobody can prove exactly whether the Yeti exists or not.69. Explorers and adventurers from around the world want to know more about the Yeti because ________.A. the Yeti is harmful to human beings.B. they are interested in stories of the Yeti.C. they want to make a living by hunting the Yeti.D. the Yeti lives in and around Asia’s high Himalayan Mountains.70. The underlined word“fiction” in Paragraph 1 probably means“_______”.A. stories people imagine C. reasons people explainB. opinions people haveD. things people complain about71. People began to think the Yeti may not exist _______.A. when Europeans curious about the Yeti decided to enter ChinaB. before the Chinese government had to stop some activities of a nature reserveC. after Yeti for“found”by various climbers was proved not trueD. when several European climbers failed to photograph a real-life Yeti72. The reserve invited tourists to hunt the Yeti in order to ________.A. make money C. do experimentsB. prove Yeti’s existence D. make itself famous73. Which statement is true according to the passage?A.It is certain that Yeti is a human-like animal which lives in and around Himalayan Mountains.B.It is proved that several European climbers really saw a hairy,ape-like animal from a distance.C. It is allowed by the Chinese government to hunt the Yeti for research in a nature reserve.D. It is human curiosity that has spread the stories of the Yeti for over a century.74.

Reading comprehension(阅读理解)(共50分)A.Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)(共12分)For his eleventh birthday,Lin was given a gift that would shape his life.On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement: Lin would have to promise to study it for at least one year.To that point Lin had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week.Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lin's artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed,still unopened.This time Lin’s parents would let him decide.Lin’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer.He stopped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera.Although Lin’s family weren't poor,they weren’t rich either,and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.The next course to catch his eye was “Language Art”. He didn’t even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Lin, a shy boy, could think of nothing worse.Then he saw it. “Cooking” sounded like something he’d like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient, it could be done alone and it was also creative.Based on Lin’s hobby history, his dad had doubts(疑惑), but he agreed. Much to his parents' surprise, Lin kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practised at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again.Now Lin is an adult and runs a successful restaurant.When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.69. What hobby didn’t Lin try according to the passage?A. Cooking C. PaintingB. Collecting stampsD. Making public speeches70. Why didn’t Lin choose to study photography?A. It was too expensive C. He had no interest in itB. He was not very creative D. It was not offered that term71. The underlined expression“catch his eye”in Paragraph 4 means“_________”.A. make him excitedB. cause him surpriseC. get his attentionD. help him see clearly72. Which of the following best describes Lin’s interest in cooking?A. It only lasted for a short time.C. It was chosen by his parents. B. It seemed to match his character.D. It developed slowly over many months.73. Why did the father have doubts when Lin chose cooking?A. Lin wasn’t good at cooking.C. He didn’t think Lin would continue.74.What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Strict FatherB. The Fun of Cooking D. The Birthday Gift B. Cooking wasn’t very convenient.D. Cooking wasn’t a good hobby for a boy.C. A Changeable Boy Keys:69-74DACBCDThree 【2019届上海市浦东新区初三英语一模试题】VI.

Each passage is followed by several q uestions or unfinishedstatements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits bestaccording to the information given in the passage you havejust read.(A)Flu is killing us. The usual response to the annual flu is not enough to fight against the risks we currentlyface, let alone prepare us for an even deadlier widespread flu that most experts agree will come in the future.Yes, we have an annual vaccine(疫苗), and everyone qualified should get it without question. The reality ,however, is that less than half Americans get the flu vaccines. And the flu vaccines we have are only 60%effective in the best years and 10% effective in the worst years. We urgently need a much more effective fluvaccine.In the U.S alone,seasonal flu can cause up to36million infections,three-qu arters of a millionhospitalizations and 56,000 deaths. We are not investing the resources needed to protect ourselves, our lovedones and our communities.Why not? We haven’t been hit by a truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals,we let down our guard as our leaders quietly defund and distaff the services we needto protect us.The risk of continued foot dragging is huge. In a severe widespread disease, the U.S health care systemcould be defeated in just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus,and would die in theweeks and months following the initial outbreak.The cost of preventing epidemics(流行病) is roughly a tenth of what it costs to cope with them when they hit. In 2012, a call was issued for an annual billion-dollar U.S. commitment tothe development of auniversal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remained seriously underfunded.The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction.As soon as headlines aboutthe flu are goinghospitals are emptied of flu patients,and school and workplace absence rates declines,we go back tobusiness as usual.Leading scientists and public health officials have thecapability to keep us much safer from flu. Theyneed your quick and decisive support to succeed. Your action today may be a matter of life and death foryou and your loved ones.56. The problem of the current flu vaccines is that __________.A. they are not available every yearB. most Americans are not allowed to get themC. not everyone is qualified for themD. many people still catch flu after getting them57. What does the author mean by “continued foot drag ging” in Paragraph 4?A. Hospitals cannot meet the needs of patients during flu outbreaks.B. The leaders continue to drag the feet of the patients infected with fluC. Individuals aren’t alert enough to the underinvestment in flu prevention.D. Flu will certainly become a severe widespread disease in near future.58. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Science is currently not so developed as to keep us safer from flu.B. The death from flu is much higher than that from other diseases.C. The general public is partially to blame for the neglect of flu prevention.D. Developing a universal flu vaccine will cost more than dealing with flu.59. The author wrote the passage mainly to _______-.A. teach people more effective ways to fight against fluB. call on people to take flu outbreaks far more seriouslyC. encourage medical scientists to develop more flu vaccinesD. urge the government to publicize the risks of widespread flu.(B)How to get your tax refundAt the storeGet a Global Blue Tax Free Form.

It a ppears to representa man with a blurred face, dressed in clothing similar to that worn by subjects painted by the Dutch artistRembrandt van Rijn in the 17th century.Of course, a computer didn’t automatically pick up a brush and become an artist. T he AI that createdthe image had human programmers---a Parisian art collective called Obvious,Chris ti e’s reported.Theircooperation, titled “Portrait of Edmond De Belamy, ” is part of a series of paintings of th e fictional Belamy family and was expected to fetch $7,000 to $10,000, according to Christie’s.To create the portrait, the Obvious team first fed the network a diet of 15,000 image s painted betweenthe 14th and 20th centuries, to train it to recognize visual elements in fine art, Obvious arti sts Hugo Caselles-Dupre’ told Christie’s. The algorithm that eventually created an original image had two parts that worked against each other,called the Generator(that makes the art)and a Discriminator(th at tries to spot thedifference between human-created and AI-created images),Caselles-Dupre’ explained: they called this AI“generate adversarial network”(GAN), Casells-Dupre’ explained.GAN’s final image was then printed and framed, according to Obvious. At the bott ome of the portraitis a mathematical formula(公式) representing the algorithm that created it, a nod to the relationship betweenthe Generator and the Discriminator, Obvious artists wrote on the collective’s website.The goal of the painting and of Obvious,also co-founded by Hugo Caselles-D upre and GauthierVernier,was to prove“artificial intelligence can do more than operate driverless cars or transformmanufacturing---it can be creative,” Consumer News and Business Channel reported.Portraiture is a tough task for AI to take on,according to Christie’s,“since humans are highlyaccustomed to the curves and complexities of a face in a way that a machine cannot be.”This difficulty waspart of Obvious’ thinking when they created the portrait.“Edmond de Belamy” is one of eleven AI paintings made by Obvious.63. It can be learned from the passage that the portrait “Edmond de Belamy”________.A. was sold at an unexpected high priceC. is a painting created by means of brushB. was the first artwork sold at an auctionD. is a man who once appeared at the auction64. To create a portrait, AI needs to ________.A. learn from plenty of imagesC. work against human painters B. use an algorithm with many partsD. recognize its human programmers65. What can be conclude from the passage?A. The mathematical formula at the bottom of the portrait is meaningless.B. The portrait was made to prove algorithms are able to imitate creativityC. It is more difficult for AI to operate driverless cars than to paint a portrait.D. AI is better at painting the curves and complexities of a face than a human66. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. AI will soon replace man in some fieldsB. an AI-created portrait sells high at an auctionC. a proper algorithm is the key for AI to create artD. AI-created paintings are better received at auctionsSection CA. It’s that long-term exposure that experts find most worrisome.B. Car manufacturers are unaware of standards regulating air quality inside new cars.C. This is when components are still unstable and tend towards what is called off-gassing.D. Just reading a list of the substances is scary enough, and the danger of exposure is scarier still.E. The source of the smell so many buyers find appealing isin the various substances used in carconstruction.F. Fortunately, high concentrations of these compounds gradually disappear just a few monthsafter manufacture.Is New-car Smell Bad for Your Health?The smell of a new car can be appealing in showrooms, for which there’s a good rea son. That new carsmell comes from a mixture of chemicals, some of which can be highly poisonous._____________. Many of these contain volatile(挥发性的) organic compounds(VOCs), some of whichcan be deadly in sufficient quantities. Others are just bad for you.“It’s a chemical cocktail made up of lots of poisonous substances,”said Jeff Gearhart,ResearchDirector of the Ecology Center in the US state of Michigan. The Ecology Center has been monitoring andtesting chemical levels in the inside of the car for years, and has noted some impro vement. But Gearhartsays there is still work to be done.“There are over 200 chemical compounds found in vehicles,” he said. “Since these chemicals are notregulated, consumers have no way of knowing the dangers they face.”___________Immediate symptoms can range from a sore throat to headach es,dizziness,etc.,depending on the sensitivity of an individual.According to the US environmental Protection Agency, continued exposure to som e of these can leadto reproductive impacts and damage to some organs and central nervous system----or evencancer.___________.The danger is the greatest when the car is new, and the new car smell is most noti ceable._________It is the release of chemical vapours, which leads to the smell. Heat from a vehicle left i n the sun can makematters worse, and speed up the chemical reaction. The danger is reduced over time, a nd experts say theworst is usually within about six months.Experts advise the best thing that buyers can do to limit exposure is to keep the in side of the car wellventilated(通风的), especially during the first months of ownership. Park in the shade with the windo wsopen when it’s safe to do so, or at least try to air it out before getting inside----especially on hot days.IV.Summary WritingTake Care of Your Spine(脊柱)The spine stands at the center of your health, providing your body with structure a nd support. It alsocontains your spinal cord, a massive collection of nerves that sends electric signals fro m the rest of yourbody to your brain. Therefore, it’s important to take care of it.Maintaining your good posture is one of the most important things you can do to keep your spine healthy.Proper posture means standing or sitting while keeping your spine straight, except for its natural curves.Posture comes into play even when you’re asleep. Sleeping on your side puts less stress on your spine thanmost other positions. Having a comfortable bed is also very important as sleeping in a position that isn’t comfortable can leave your back feeling sore the next day.Exercise is also an important factor in the health of your spine. Staying still for too l ong---even if yourposture is good---can be hard on your back. Especially if you work at a desk most of the day, it’s importantto get up and stretch periodically. Stretches can help the muscles around your spine rela x and allow bonesto shift into better positions. Strength exercise with light weights or bodyweight exercise s like pushups canalso by strengthening the muscles around your spine.However,don’t overdo the ex ercise,as repeated motions can hurt the muscles around your spine.Your diet also affects the health of your spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves.In particular, B vitamins help keep nerves healthy, so you may want to consider taking a supplement(补充物). Another important factor is vitamin D, which is essential for strong bones, but it’s also absorbed fromsunlight, so it may help to do some of those back exercises outside.V.
