Steve wore a hat and two scarves, but he didn't have any gloves. They both felt very cold.Then Becky had an idea! “What if I trade you one glove for one of your scarves?” Becky said. “Then both of our necks would be warm, and we'd each have one warm hand. We could put the other hand in our pockets.”“Good idea!” said Steve.After they shared the scarf and glove, they began to feel warmer.A few minutes later Mrs. Brown appeared. “Did I just see you barter?” she asked.Becky and Steve looked puzzled(迷惑的). “What's barter?” Becky asked.“Barter means trade things without using money,” Mrs. Brown explained. “You two traded a scarf and a glove so you could be warm. Did you know that traders bartered for thousands of years?”“Really? How did it work?”Steve asked.Mrs. Brown said, “Well, traders who had too much of one thing, such as salt or cloth or pigs, would exchange them with other traders for other things that they needed. Trading grew and developed, but it had problems.”“Like what?” Becky asked.“Suppose you raised chickens. You could trade the chickens and eggs for what you needed. But if the chickens got away--”“I wouldn't have anything to trade!”“Exactly!” said Mrs. Brown.“Now you see why people began to use money to trade,” Mrs. Brown added. “Is it true that silver and gold coins were used before paper money?” Steve asked.“Yes, but they were too heavy to carry.” Mrs. Brown said. “People then began to write promises on paper instead of trading coins. That was how paper money got its start.”“Wow!” said Becky, “but I guess people still trade sometimes, the way Steve and I did today!”【小题1】In which order did the way of trading develop?① exchange objects ②use coins ③ use paper moneyA.①②③B.③①②C.③②①D.②①③【2023年拱墅区初中学业水平模拟考试B】When I was 14, my dad and I took a bike trip in the countryside.

That day in January 1948 changed the way people in the UK shopped. On 12 January 1948, a great number of people crowded into a new shop in Manor Park, London. This was because it allowed shoppers to choose, touch and take things off the shelves themselves. The idea came from the US, where a supermarket-style shop called Piggly Wiggly had opened in 1916. Its owner, Clarence Saunders, decided to let people help themselves instead of serving each of them. In this way, he could cut costs and reduce prices. Shopping trolleys (购物车) first appeared in the UK supermarkets in 1950. With a trolley, people could carry more in a single shopping trip.Within 10 years, supermarkets were springing up all over Britain. People could find one almost anywhere. The first one-stop supermarket opened in Nottingham shire, England, in 1964. It had 50 departments and sold everything under one roof. Around 30,000 people and 1,000 cars turned up on its opening weekend, causing traffic jams. Today, 9 out of 10 people buy things from supermarkets.Supermarkets are using technology to make shopping easier. Amazon Fresh shops use cameras and shelves to see and weigh what people buy. In the US, “smart trolleys” scan (扫描) objects when they are dropped in and make it easy for customers to find things. Engineers in Hong Kong have designed self-driving trolleys. Supermarkets are looking for smarter ways to send things, too. Coles supermarket in Australia uses drones(无人机) to fly things to customers' doors.【小题4】In which order did these events happen?a. The first supermarket opened in Manor Park.b. Clarence Saunders started Piggly Wiggly.c. Shopping trolleys first appeared in the UK.d.

2023高考英语新高考1卷B篇阅读理解全考点解析附译文
2023高考英语新高考1卷B篇阅读理解全考点解析附译文[名校内部资料]BWhen John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌)? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed aseries of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.“Ecological design”is the name John gives to what he does. “Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,”he says. “You put organisms in new relationships and observe what’s happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”24. What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?A. He was fond of traveling.B. He enjoyed being alone.C. He had an inquiring mind.D. He longed to be a doctor.25. Why did John put the sludge into the tanks?A. To feed the animals.B. To build an ecosystem.C. To protect the plants.D. To test the eco-machine.26. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Fuzhou?A. To review John’s research plans.B. To show an application of John’s idea.C. To compare John’s different jobs.D. To erase doubts about John’s invention.27. What is the basis for John’s work?A. Nature can repair itself.B. Organisms need water to survive.C. Life on Earth is diverse.D. Most tiny creatures live in groups.参考答案：CDBA参考译文：当约翰·托德还是个孩子的时候，他喜欢探索房子周围的树林，观察大自然是如何解决问题的。

2024年全国高考仿真模拟卷一英语
2024年全国高考仿真模拟卷一英语一、阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)(共15题;共30分)ADuring ancient times,children didn’t have smartphones,iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead,they came up with interesting games to play.★Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty,kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China,and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold.Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.In1999,the sport was included in the6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.★Flying kitesKites have quite a long history.The earliest kites were made of wood,instead of paper.Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite,Tianjin kite,Weifang kite and Nantong kite,of which each has distinctive features.The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.★Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children,popular around the nation.There are two ways to play:covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄)him or,more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.★Playing diabolosA diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center.By juggling(边抛边接)the diabolo on the rope,the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle.Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game,especially popular in North China.Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage.1．Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?A．To practice their feet B．To warm themselvesC．To train their skills D．To relax themselves.2．Which kites are swallow-shaped?A．Weifang kites.B．Tianjin kites.C．Beijing kites.D．Nantong kites.3．According to the passage,which one is a national intangible cultural heritage?A．Stone balls.B．Flying kites.C．Hide-and-seek.D．Playing diabolosBTechnology usually distracts us from nature.But now technology is“offering us an opportunity to listen to nonhumans in powerful ways,reviving our connection to the natural world,”wrote professor Karen Bakker in her new book,The Sounds of Life:How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants.All around the animal kingdom,there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and decipher.Elephants, for example,communicate with each other using infrasound,a sound frequency far below our human hearing range.Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves,with one purpose being to attract baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow.This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears!Scientists have placed listening devices in these environments to pick up sounds humans are normally unable to detect.After the sounds are recorded,AI is then able to determine their meaning,according to the news website Vox.There are now whole databases of whale songs and honeybee dances.Bakker wrote that one day this information could be turned into“a zoological version of Google Translate”.One animal language Bakker wrote about is that of the elephant.She explained how elephants“have a different signal for honeybee,which is a threat,and a different signal for human,”in an interview with Vox.“Moreover,they distinguish between threatening humans and non-threatening humans,”she said.This technology can not only understand the animals,but also communicate back to them.For example,bees use dances to communicate to their peers where to go in search of nectar.A research team in Germany,therefore,fed the bee language AI database system into a robot bee,allowing the robot to create a dance routine that can tell the bees which direction to move,Vox reported.Whereas in the past language creation had been limited to mainly apes,with there being many examples of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)having been taught sign language to communicate with humans,this new technology now allows humans to socialize with different animals throughout the animal kingdom.4．What does the underlined word“decipher”most probably mean in paragraph2? A．Understand.B．Hear.C．Produce.D．Record.5．What helps baby coral choose their home?A．Infrasound.B．Sounds within human range of hearing. C．Sounds through its ears.D．Sound waves.6．What can we infer from the passage?A．Bees used dances to warn their peers of danger.B．Human fed listening devices into coral to detect it.C．Elephants have different signals for different purposes.D．Elephants can tell whether there are threatening animals around.7．Why did researchers create the robot bee?A．To collect more bee dances.B．To convey direction to bees.C．To learn the language of bees.D．To help bees search for their friends.CWhen you are travelling in Thailand,which means of transport is the best choice?You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand.It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north.The most popular bikes are the little125cc Honda Dream which you can get for about150baht(铢)a day or as little as3,000baht per month,making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi.When you are in cities in Thailand,especially in Bangkok,always remember to get a taxi that is traveling on the roads.Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the meter(计程表).They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good,so renting cars is another way to get around.The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable price.It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West.Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand,more expensive than American prices,but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe.In the past,Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in—signs were generally in Thai (泰语)only,making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around.But now,the situation is improved.In a lot of places,even the farthest corners of the country,street signs are in both Thai and English.8．To a foreigner,the cheapest way to get around Thailand is renting a______.A．car B．taxi C．bike D．motorbike9．What is the writer's advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?A．To take a taxi going on the road.B．To take a taxi parked outside hotels.C．To make sure there is a meter in it.D．To bargain with the driver over the price. 10．Why was it difficult to drive in Bangkok in the past?A．Because there were too many traffic jams on the roads.B．Because there were no signs showing directions.C．Because the signs were written only in their own language.D．Because the quality of the roads was not good.11．In which part of magazine can this passage be found?A．Entertainment B．Tourism C．Market D．AdvertisementDWilliam I,who conquered England some930years ago,had wealth,power and an army.Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time,he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶)，or riding lawn mower(除草机).How did he get by?History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me.I have storm windows, Croesus did not.Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great,but he couldn,t buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people,you,d think I,d be content.The trouble is that,like most people,I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighbors,school classmates,famous TV people.The greed I feel toward my friend Howard,s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.’There is really no rising or falling standard of living.Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about.You,d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood,but no, we want a hot bath too.Of course,one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today,s standards the things I own are pretty nice.My house is smaller than the houses of many investments bankers,but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.Besides,to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future,these bankers,fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby.I can,t keep up with my neighbors right now.But just wait.12．What does the underlined phrase“get by”in the first paragraph mean?A．Succeed as a king.B．Deal with complaints.C．Live in s satisfactory way.D．Get some extra money.13．How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A．3.B．4.C．5D．614．According to the passage,the author.intends to.A．tell us to be content with lifeB．warn us to live in a simple wayC．teach us to learn lessons from lifeD．encourage us to struggle for wealth15．What,s the author,s attitude towards life?A．Doubtful.B．Optimistic.C．Uncaring.D．Cautious.二、阅读理解第二节七选五(5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)(共1题;共10分)Table manners are the ultimate way to show respect or some accidental disrespect to yourhost.___16___.In France,you are supposed to use two hands to eat—either fork and knife or fork and bread.Bread isn't meant to be an appetizer.___17___When you eat the bread,tear off a piece of it to eat instead of biting directly into the bread.When not in use,the bread belongs on the table or tablecloth instead of the plate.Finishing everything on your plate is a no-no in many Asian countries.___18___Leaving a small amount on your plate symbolizes that you've had your fill and acknowledges your host's generosity.___19___So,tipping,in their culture,is rude.Even if they don’t assume you’re being rude,they can
