2019-2020学年广元市平武中学高三英语第四次联考试题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AOver the years, I’ve been guilty of hastily shutting the front door to many strangers when they came knocking with the intention of selling things. But earlier this year, around Easter time, a dear friend of mine had an experience that changed my mind and perception towards these “intruders”.Linda, who recently moved to a new neighbour hood, had been housebound all week suffering from a severe case of flu when, early one morning, there was the terrible knock on her front door. Peering out the window, she saw two young ladies demurely (端庄地) holding leaflets and a TV set model. She knew of a large TV set establishment nearby and assumed a message was about to be gently delivered. “This is the last thing I need today,” she muttered to herself and hesitantly opened the door.Coughing, she poked her head out and impatiently informed them she wasn’t the slightest bit interested in any TV whatsoever. Furthermore, she added, she was feeling quite unwell and abruptly shut the door. The ladies politely turned and left in silence.A few hours later, another knock. Linda glanced out the window and to her surprise, there were the same two ladies, back again. Really annoyed this time, she opened the door ready togive them a piece of her mind. Before she could speak, with concerned looks on their faces, these women handed Linda what looked to be a dish, saying, “We’re so sorry we disturbed you earlier. We thought you may like this homemade chicken soup. Hopefully it might make you feel a little better.”Linda was taken aback by this lovely gesture. Being new to the area, she didn’t know many neighbours or people who could assist her with shopping or errands (跑腿) so the gesture was all the more appreciated. She could only smile sheepishly and sincerely thanked them. With that, the ladies left.After she related this story to me, I thought about how touching this deed really was. Especially in today’s world where sadly, kindness and thoughtfulness seem so rare. I also realized that thinking about others and showing kindness is the real essence of love.1. What does the expression “give them a piece of her mind”in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Scold them severely.B. Drive them away.C. Refuse them directly.D. Speak out her idea.2. What can be learned about Linda from the passage?A. Linda always hastily shut the front door to many people.B. Linda was not a little interested in any TV whatsoever.C. Linda was very grateful to the ladies for their chicken soup.D. Linda would buy their TV set in reward for the ladies’ chicken soup.3. What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Chicken SoupB. Soup for the soulC. The Real Essence of LoveD. A Friend’s experienceBBefore moving to Stokholm, I did my research on Sweden and was confident about my move. However, I quickly realized on my first day that so much of what I learnedwas so very wrong. There are many things that a Google search cannot show about Sweden.The first is fika. A fika is taking a break from whatever you are doing to enjoy a coffee with friends. Swedes value community highly so it makes sense that they would like to set aside time each day to reconnect with others. Fika is a great time to meet new people as well as catch up with friends.I grew up in the American South where everyone is very friendly. I found that little things like not being asked my life story at the coffee shop by the waiter upset me. However, Swedish people are not rude. Instead, they practice being logom, which means “just enough”.The winters can be very dark and cold, so the Swedish people do not take any sunny day for granted. Since the weather has been fine, I have found myself walking a lot around Stockholm. Often it is easiest to get from place to place by walking, which allows you to see so much of the city and enjoy the fresh air. Though it has been very tiring to get used to, it also has made me feel better about all of the kardemummabullar that I have been eating!I think it is important for students who want to study abroad to know that it is hard to move to countries no matter how “similar” you may think they may be. You have to jump in with both feet and be patient with yourself as well as others. As long as you keep an open mind and are willing to learn, you will have a great experience.4. What do we know about fika?A. It is a waste of time.B. It is a way to balance life and work.C. It is all about drinking coffee.D. It is a Swedish social tradition.5. What does the author think of Swedish people?A. They are friendly.B. They seem a bit cold.C. They appear really rude.D. They are interested in other's life.6. Why does the author like walking?A. It is fun and not very tiring.B. It is good exercise on cold days.C It allows her to enjoy sunny days. D. It gives her the chance to eat the local food.7. What's the author's advice for students going abroad?A. Be confident.B. Be careful.C. Be open- minded.D. Be hard- working.CWhy can friendships be hard? Because often people aren't as honest and open as they should be. Sometimes, people end up getting hurt.Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of himself and his own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should guard against.The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friend the same way as you'd like to be treated. This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friend everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you, if he or she is in your shoes.Even if you're always thinking about how you'd like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are issues that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these issues so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Issues like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends, or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are issues that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these issues so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship.8. Why may problems with friendships appear?A. One is selfish.B. One is alone.C. One is too anxious.D. One is too busy.9. What's the first and most important thing to be other people's friend?A. Not to hurt your friends' feelings.B. To give your friends whatever you have.C. To treat your friends as fairly as possible.D. Not to think of your own needs any more.10. What is the text mainly about?A. The Meaning of FriendshipsB. The Importance of FriendshipsC. The Advantages of FriendshipsD. The Problems with Friendships11. What may follow the last paragraph of the text?A. How to make many friends.B. How to keep friends happy.C. How to treat friends correctly.D. How to solve friendship issues.DExperts are warning about the risks of extremely picky(挑剔的)eating after a teenager living on a diet of chips and crisps developed lasting sight loss. Eye doctors inBristolcared for the 17-year-old after his sight had gone to the point of blindness. Tests showed he had serious vitamin deficiency(缺乏). Dr. Denize Atan, who treated him at the hospital, said, “His diet was basically a portion of chips from the local fish and chip shop every day. He also used to snack on crisps and sometimes white bread and ham, and not really any fruit and vegetables.”The teenager saw his doctor at the age of 14 because he had been feeling tired and unwell. At that time he suffered from vitamin B12 deficiency, but he did not stick with the treatment or improve his poor diet. Three years later, he was taken to theBristolEyeHospitalbecause of progressive sight loss.He was not overweight or underweight, but he had lost minerals from his bones, which was really quite shocking for a boy of his age. In terms of his sight loss, he met the standards of being blind. “He had blind spots right in the middle of his sight,” said Dr Denize Atan, “That means he can’t drive and would find it reallyarduousto read, watch TV or recognize faces.”Dr Denize Atan said that parents should learn about the harm that can be caused by picky eating, and turn to experts for help. For those who are concerned , she advised, “It’s best not to be anxious about picky eating , andinstead calmly introduce one or two new foods with every meal.” She said multivitamin tablets can supplement(补充) a diet, but cannot take the place of eating healthily. “It’s much better to take in vitamins through a varied and balanced diet,” she said, adding that too manycertain vitamins , including vitamin A, can be harmful ,“so you don’t want to overdo it.”12. What does Dr Denize Atan imply in paragraph 1?A. The diet of the boy is not balanced.B. Fruit and vegetables are rich in vitamins.C. Picky eating is common among teenagers.D. The cause of the boy’s disease is unknown.13. Why did the boy go to see his doctor at the age of 14?A. To improve his poor diet.B. To get some help to lose weight.C. To be treated for his discomfort.D. To slow down his progressive sight loss.14. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Important.B. Easy.C. Necessary.D. Difficult.15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. Reasons why the boy is seriously ill.B.Suggestions for the boy’s family to care for him.C. Advice for parents worried about picky eating.D. Waysof taking in enough vitamins and minerals.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。

So, I decided one year to bypass the usual shirts, sweaters and ties and reach for something 39 just for Mike.The inspiration came in an 40 way. Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team of mostly black kids sponsored by a church. These young men, dressed in ragged sneakers, 41 a sharp contrast to our boys in their nice uniforms and sparkling new wrestling shoes. As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without helmets, a luxury that they obviously couldn’t42 . Well, we thoroughly defeated them and took every weight class. Mike shook his head 43 , "I wish just one of them could have won," he said. "They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them.1"Mike loved kids and he knew them. That's when the 44 for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local 45 goods store and bought wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them anonymously（慝名）to the church. On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was my gift from him. His 46 was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and in 47 years.36．A．participation B．edition C．identification D．qualification 37．A．loved B．celebrated C．spent D．hated 38．A．educational B．commercial C．spiritual D．social 39．A．expensive B．practical C．especial D．special 40．A．unusual B．awkward C．astonishing D．attractive 41．A．presented B．possessed C．prohibited D．preserved 42．A．advocate B．abuse C．adopt D．afford 43．A．heavily B．happily C．sadly D．deliberately 44．A．envelope B．idea C．money D．shop 45．A．sporting B．clothing C．cheap D．opening 46．A．car B．smile C．eye D．helmet 47．A．succeeding B．past C．passing D．fascinating Section C (12marks)Direct ions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank with the word that best fits the context．Tom went to the seaside to spend his holiday last summer with his family．One day, he was swimming in the river when someone shouted, “Look out , there is 48．shark not far away!”hearing the shout, Tom was scared to death 49 he was scared of its dangerous characteristic."

Alternatively, the dealer might offer to replace or repair the car; reduce the price of offering a partial refund(退款).Once you’ve informed the dealer that you wish to reject the car , you must stop using the vehicle.●If the rejection is not accepted, then it’s up to you to prove your case. You’ll need to pay for an independent assessment of the car and sue for damages. If you do choose a repair, insist the dealer provide you with a hire car or pay any reasonable traveling expenses thus produced while your new car is in the garage.●If the car is new ,it’s likely that the claim will be too high to be fought. Using the small claims procedure to you may have to pay for legal representation. All this can be pretty daunting and expensive. You need to weigh up the pros and cons before rejecting a car. Would a repair do just as well? Selecting a dealer who offers a clear exchange policy may help.56．After the above writing, you will be better at .A．choosing a car B．dealing with car sellersC．making a claim D．suing for damages57．According to the text, what is essential after you inform the dealer of your wish to reject the car?A．Suing for damages．B．Demanding traveling expenses．C．Stopping using it．D．Proving your case．58．If the dealer offers to repair the car you have bought, which of the following is acceptable?A．Asking the dealer to provide you with a hire car．B．Asking the dealer to provide you with repair tool sets．C．Asking the dealer to pay all of your traveling expenses．D．Asking the dealer to return all your money．59．Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “daunting” in the last paragraph?A．Different．B．Effective．C．Discouraging．D．Convenient．60．What does the writer want to say in the last paragraph?A．Buyers should select a dealer that offers to repair the car．B．Rejecting a new car is not necessarily that best choice．C．It’s necessary that a new car should be repaired．D．Buyers should never reject a mew car．BDear Kind-Trustee-Who-Sends-Orphans-to-College,Here I an! I traveled yesterday for four hours in a train．It’s a funny feeling, isn’t it? I never rode in one before．College is the biggest, most puzzling place—I get lost whenever I leave my room. I will write you a description later when I'm feeling less confused; also I will tell you about my lessons. Classes don't begin until Monday morning, and this is Saturday night. But I wanted to write a letter first just to get acquainted.It seems strange to be writing letters to somebody you don't know. It seems strange for me to be writing letters at all—I've never written more than three or four in my life, so please overlook it if these are not a model kind.Before leaving yesterday morning, Mrs. Lippett and I had a very serious talk. She told me how to behave all the rest of my life, and especially how to behave towards the kind gentlemanwho is doing so much for me. I must take care to be very respectful.But how can one be very respectful to a person who wishes to be called John Smith? Why couldn't youhave picked out a name with a little personality? I might as well write letters to Dear Flagpole or Dear Clothes-line.I have been thinking about you a great deal this summer; having somebody take an interest in me after all these years makes me feel as though I had found a sort of family. It seems as though I belonged to somebody now, and it's a very comfortable feeling. I must say, however, that when I think about you, my imagination has very little to work upon. There are just three things that I know: I, You are tall. Ⅱ. You are rich. Ⅲ. You hate girls.I suppose I might call you Dear Mr. Girl-Hater. Only that's rather rude to me. Or Dear Mr. Rich-Man, but that's rude to you, as though money were the only important thing about you. Besides, being rich is such a very external quality. Maybe you won't stay rich all your life; lots of very clever men get broke in Wall Street. But at least you will stay tall all your life! So I've decided to call you Dear Daddy-Long-Legs. I hope you won't mind. It's just a private pet name we won't tell Mrs. Lippett.The ten o'clock bell is going to ring in two minutes. Our day is divided into sections by bells. We eat and sleep and study by bells. It's very lifeful. There it goes! Lights out. Good night.Observe how precisely I obey rules--due to my training in the John Grier Home.Yours mostrespectfully,Jerusha AbbottTo Mr. Daddy-Long-Legs Smith 61．Jerusha felt “confused” because ．A．she had never written to the trustee beforeB．she was not familiar with the college yetC．she could never find the way to her homeD．she had never traveled on a train berore62．Jerusha thought that she couldn’t be very respectful to “John Smith” because ．A．he was a total stranger to herB．she was sure it was a false identityC．the name was too commonD．nobody would like to be called that time63．According to Jerusha, being rich may be ．A．tentative B．unimaginable C．traditional D．rude 64．The fact that her day is “divided into sections by bells” makes Jerusha feel ．A．busy B．restricted by rules C．pressed for time D．full of energy65．Jerusha decided to call the trustee Dear Daddy-Long-legs ．A．in order to show her respect for himB．because it was one of his inner qualityC．in older to make them feel closer to each otherD．because she had always wanted a fatherCThe next generation of smart phone could combine the date from its gyroscopes (陀螺仪) with a built-in compass to allow you to track your indoor movements even without GPS Research described it in the international Journal of Innovative Computing and Applications by Shahid Ayub of Lancaster University, and his colleagues there and at HW Communications, suggests that the embedded inertial sensors (嵌入式惯性传感器) in many smart phones have added the facility to be used for localisation and tracking applications. Theprimary benefit of using smart phones is that no additional infrastructure would need to be installed for monitoring personnel movements in a wide variety of situations not least staff, equipment and inventory movements in warehouse facilities, shopping malls and factories. In contrast, other technology being proposed would require new equipment，such as RFID technologies.However, smart phones do not yet have the ability to pinpoint their location without recourse to the GPS system, which is not accessible indoors and has the added disadvantage of using up battery power very quickly even if it could be used. Inertial navigation only provides the necessary information relative to a specified starting point the team says. This is useful for anyone with a non-GPS smart phone who wishes to track the route they take when walking or jogging if they specify their starting point. The team suggests that pedestrians indoors could be positioned using a combination of the smart phone accelerometer(加速器) and an built-in digital compass, something that will become available in future smart phones.They have now investigated the potential of three different smart phone placement modes: idle, hand held and listening, which could be used with pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) techniques to allow users to record the path they follow or for various kinds of workplace or other monitoring requirements."The technique could be used in underground tube stations, airports , train stations where there is no infrastructure installed for tracking or navigation," Ayub explains, "It can also be used for location-based service applications. In big shopping malls it becomes easier to navigate to a target shop or meeting place, while in large offices and across industry it could be used to track employees and control movements of workers in restricted areas."66．What is the primary benefit of using smart phones with embedded inertial sensors?A．They require new equipment, such as RFID technologies．B．They can track pedestrian movement indoors with GPS．C．No additional infrastructure would be needed．D．No additional money would be spent．67．What can we know from the third paragraph?A．pedestrians indoors cannot be positioned using GPS．B．GPS can be used to locate pedestrians indoors．C．Smart phones with embedded inertial sensors can save a lot of energy．D．The current GPS system is perfect in many ways．68．We can learn from the passage that the recent studies of smart phones ．A．were conducted by Shahid Ayub aloneB．were supported by GPSC．have no connection with everyday needsD．can be applied to underground tube stations69．The next generation of smart phone will be able to ．a．make it easier to find places in a big shopping mallb．track employees in large officesc．make GPS useless in train stationsd．monitor the movements of workers in restricted areasA．a, b, c B．b, c, d C．a, b, d D．a, c, d 70．What would be the best title for the text?A．Tracking Pedestrians Indoors Using Their Smart PhonesB．GPS Found to Have DefectsC．Additional Infrastructure Should Be Constructed in AirportsD．People Need to Replace Their Current Smart PhonesPart ⅣWriting (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blands by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．TV and computer games are blamed for everything from turning our children into a generation of couch potatoes to increased anti-social behavior．Dr ．Aric Sigman an associate fellow of the British Psychological Society, believes watching TV too much Puts children at increased risk of health problems, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and obesity．If you’re worried about how long your child spends in front of a screen．It may be time to review and modify your family’s screen habits．Research firm BMRB estimates young people in the UK aged between 11 and 15 spend ,on average, 52 hours a week in front of a screen．In April , he told MPs children under three shouldn’t be exposed to TV at all．He recommended children aged between three and seven should watch no more than 30 minutes to an hour of TV a day, seven to 12-yea-olds should be limited to one hour, and 12 to 15-year-olds should watch a maximum of one and a half hours．Dr ．Sigman wants the Government to publish recommended daily guidelines for TV watching, as it does for salt intake．Both women, who have five children between them, acknowledge that cutting down screen time can be tough．“It needs a bit of effort, but small steps can make a difference so everyone in the family is happier,” says Laura O’ Flynn．Keep TVs and computers out of children’s bedrooms．Watching TV before going to sleep doesn’t help children settle．Instead, read a bedtime story or encourage them to read for themselves．Having and who they’re talking to onlin e．Good viewing habits start young．It’s difficult to impose rules on teenagers who already watch excessive TV or play computer games for hours on end．Help children plan their viewing with a TV guide．This will cut down screen time and help them to become more selective about what they watch．Don’t put on the TV as background noise．Set viewing limits．Decide with your children how much time they can spend watching TV or playing computer games．Think in 30-minute units．Shorter periods make it easier to switch off and cut down on screen consumption．Lead by example．Don’t have a TV in your own bedroom and don’t spend hours watching TV or online．Do some activities, such as playing board games or going out on a bike ride to distract their attention from TV or computers．Laura O’ Flynn says: “we went into lots of schools and the children told us they wished their parents would take them to the park and play with them ．”Before rushing to throw out your TV set or computer, it’s worth remembering much of the current research focuses on excessive TV watching．Watching TV as a family can be a shared social event and , if you plan your viewing and do something different to look forward to together rather than having the TV on all the time ,it’s all about striking rig ht balance．Review and modify your family’s screen habits71．By TV and computer games ◆Obesity: a generation of couch potatoes◆72．◆In creased risk of health problem: attention deficit Hyperactivity disorderThe present situation Young people in the UK

differentSection B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage．It’s no secret that raising children can be expensive but how about nearly a quarter of million dollars worth of expensive? A government report released on Tuesday says a middle income family with a child born last year will spend about $221,000 raising that child through to age 17．The report identified housing as the largest single expense, followed by food and childcare and education costs. The $221,000 in expenses rises to about $292,000 when adjusted for inflation(通货膨胀). Families with more income spend more money on child-related costs, the report said. A two-parent family that earns less than $57,000 annually will spend about $160,000 on a child from birth through high school. Those with an income between $57,000 and $99,000 spend about $221,000 and those with higher incomes are expected to spend roughly $367,000.Most single-parent households in the U.S. make less than $57,000 and are expected to spend about 7 percent less on child-rearing costs, compared to two-parent households in that same income group, according to the report. Costs of raising a child are highest in the urban northeast and lowest in the urban south and rural areas. The report helps courts and states determine child-support guidelines and foster care payments. It does not address costs specifically related to childbearing(分娩) and college.One of the largest changes over time has been the increase in costs related to caring for young children. The report was first issued in 1960, when such costs were largely very tiny, but with more working families turning to outside help with childcare, it has grown to be a significant expense for many families. The report does not give total costs related to early childcare. A mother of three Raben Andrews of St. Louis said the government figures sounded right to her. “well, that’s not half of it,” joked the 42-year-old public school teacher. “ I still have to put the children through college.”81．What does the author say in the first Paragraph ? (No more than 8 words) (2marks) 82．List three kinds of expenses of raising a child, according to the text. (No more than 11words)(2marks)83．What does the data in the second paragraph illustrate? (No more than 15 words) (3marks)84.Why have the costs related to care for young children increased over the years?(No more than 11 words) (3marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese．《龟兔赛跑》都是大家儿时就耳熟能详的故事了，请大家发挥自己的想象，续写《第二次龟兔赛跑》这则故事，并谈谈从自己续写的故事中所领悟到的道理。
