While his heroic stand against the Nazis is well known, there are still a few facts about the popular politician that might surprise you.His CigarsThe classic image of Winston Churchill includes a giant cigar stuck between his lips. Churchill developed his love of cigars as a young man, when he traveled to Cuba. For he rest of his life, he smoked eight or nine cigars every day. However, he almost never took a puff(吸,抽), preferring to chew on the end until it went out, then relight it and start again. To prevent the cigar being soggy (湿软的), Churchill invented the “bellybando”, a strip of brown paper which could be glued around the end.At any given time, Churchill had 3,000 to 4,000 cigars in his house, mostly his favorite Romeo & Juliet brand. On one occasion, the president of Cuba presented Churchill with 2,400 top-quality cigars, although his security team insisted one cigar from each box be sent off and tested for poison. Perhaps the story that best shows his love of cigars occurred during World War II, when he had a special oxygen mask designed so hat he could still smoke his cigar on ahigh-altitude flight.His Black DogThroughout his life, Churchill probably suffered from depression, which he called his “black dog”. At times, his depression was so severe that he didn’t like standing close to a passing train or looking at the ocean from a ship because he feared that he would mit suicide.When he was depressed, Churchill would almost spend a great deal of time in bed and lose his ability to concentrate. However, when not depressed, Churchill was full of energy, usually working and talking until the early hours of the morning. He often described how “all the colors e back into the picture”.25. Why did Churchill’s security team insist on checking the cigars?A. To see if they were of the best qualityB. To test if they were safe for ChurchillC. To make sure they were Churchill’s favoriteD. To guarantee they were not out of date26. Which of the following best shows Churchill’s love of cigars?A. He fell in love with cigars at a young ageB .He smoked many cigars every dayC. He invented the “bellybando”D. He had an oxygen mask specially designed for smoking27. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. Achievements of ChurchillB. Anecdotes about ChurchillC. Hobbies of ChurchillD. Personalities of ChurchillCIf you’re ever reading a book or watching a movie and get the clear feeling that you’ve e across the story before-or even better, ca n predict exactly what’s going to happen next---there could be a good reason for that.Researchers from the putational Story Laboratory at the University of Vermont studied the plete text of some 1,737 fiction works available on Project Gutenberg, an online collection of more than 50,000 digital books in the public area. They discovered that English literature consist of just six kinds of emotional arcs(情感弧线)that make up nearly all of the most well-known stories. By analyzing the sentiment(情感)of language used in these texts, the researchers were able to show the emotional ups and downs for the stories as a whole. They discovered that negative words like “poverty”, “dead”, and “punishment” dragged the emotion down, while positive terms like “love”, “peace”, and “friend” brought it up.According to the researchers, those six core emotional arcs are:● “Rags to riches” (An ongoing emotional rise)● “Tragedy, or riches to rags” (An ongoing emotional fall0● “Man in a hole” (a fall followed by a rise)● “Icarus” (A rise followed by a fall)● “Cinderella” (Rise-fall-rise)● “Oedipus” (Fall-rise-fall)Interestingly, based on download statistics from Project Gutenberg, the researchers say the most popular stories are ones that use more plex emotional arcs, with the Cinderella and Oedipus arcs registering the most downloads. Also popular are works that bine these core arcs together in new ways within one story, such as two “Man in a hole” arcs stuck together, or the “Cinderella” are coupled with a tragic ending.28. Readers often feel familiar when reading a new story because stories have similar_______.A. beginningsB. endingsC. charactersD. emotional arcs29. How did researchers carry out their study?A. By conducting surveys among readersB. By reading books borrowed from librariesC. By analyzing works from an online collectionD. By interviewing authors of the well-known stories30. Which set of words may drag emotion down?A. Disease, murder and warB. Hope, fortune and richesC. Smile, health and beautyD. Cold, earthquake and spring31. According to the last paragraph, which kind of works are most popular among readers?A. Works with an ongoing emotional riseB. Works with an ongoing emotional fallC. Works with a rise followed by a fallD. Works with more than one rise and fallDMost people know about the boomerang(回力棒),the legendary Australian throwing tool which,once released,returns to its owner.But have you heard of the boomerang generation? This refers to a phenomenon of people who move back home after briefly 1eaving their parents’housesfor university in Western culture.Most of these young adults were born between the mid—1970s and mid—1980s.They are likened to the boomerang because they return to their home,just like the throwing too1.Monster,a job search pany,reported in a survey that 48 percent of prospective(未来的)graduates planned on being“boomerang kids”,returning home after graduation.Although many expected to just make a quick stop before getting their own place,Monster discovered that 42 percent of graduates said they were still living with their parents.What is the cause of this passive generation? It may not be only the young people’s fault.The long-term economic recession(不景气)has made it difficult for college graduates to find jobs,while the cost of living has continued to rise.And as a result,many young people have lost hope and self-confidence.Moreover,the unconditional love and support of parents allow the boomerang kids to rely on them without feeling much guilt.Boomeranging is not all negative.Kids get the chance to reconnect with their parents after university,and parents get the opportunity to be a big part of their children’s adult lives,which can lead to closer bonds.But critics of this phenomenon argue that this situation affects young adults.Without the stress or ambition to succeed,boomerang kids tend to bee more passive in their search for good jobs,harming their professional ambitions.And finally,the extra financial burden on parents can bee too heavy to bear,leading to deep and often permanent damage to the relationship.32.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.Many young adults like boomerang.B.The boomerang generation are passive.C.Adult children are moving back home.D.The boomerang kids are burdens on parents.33.What did Monster’s survey show?A.Boomerang kids didn’t stay long at home.B.The number of boomerang kids was large.C.Boomerang kids were close to their parents.D.There were few jobs for young adults to do.34.Why are young adults being boomerang kids?A.Because parents want to play a role in their kids’lives.B.Because graduates want to reconnect with their parents.C.Because it costs too much for graduates to live on their own.D.Because graduates can easily succeed with their parents’help.35.What is a result of boomeranging?A.Boomerang kids will be self—confident.B.Parents may have a bad relationship with their kids.C.Parents will be free from the burden of raising kids.D.Boomerang kids tend to lose their desire for knowledge.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。

2022届高三英语百所名校好题分类快递(02月)开学考试专辑专题04(阅读理解之七选五)原卷版浙江省台州市椒江区省联盟2022届高三开学考试英语试题People of all ages and nationalities are opening Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn accounts to connect with friends, celebrities, and those who share similar interests as them. ___31___ Small businesses and corporations are also using it to develop closer relationships with their fans and attract new customers.___32___ For starters, it can be an effective way to conduct market research. In the past, companies often spent millions on studies to determine what their customers wanted. However, they often had difficulties locating people who were interested in their products or services. Nowadays social media has simplified this process as many customers will follow or like the companies they purchase products from. Furthermore, online advertising campaigns through social media allow companies to specifically target people who like similar products as the ones they are selling.___33___ It allows fans and customers to leave comments about companies, their products, or their services. In turn, these companies can evaluate this feedback and respond in a way that shows they truly care.However, companies shouldn't jump into social media without a carefully-planned strategy, as this can cause more harm than good. A common mistake is putting new hires or outside consultants in charge of social media accounts. ___34___ Another mistake is using conservative, corporate language in posts and updates. On social media, people are looking for personalities they can connect with, so companies shouldn't shy away from usinghumor or being colorful. Finally, social media accounts should always provide value and other share-worthy content to fans, for that is the primary reason they became followers. ___35___A. Social media has swept across the globe.B. Social media isn't just for individuals though.C. One company called Zippos does this extremely well.D. The person controlling these accounts must be knowledgeable.E. There are many ways that organizations can benefit from social media.F. Social media also gives companies greater control over their brand image.G. Only by following these tips, organizations can take their businesses to the next level.河南省濮阳市2021-2022学年高三下学期开学摸底考试英语试题Travel is not only beneficial to our minds, bodies, and souls, but it will be important to many countries and communities that rely on tourism dollars to make ends meet. Now I’d like to go a bit more in depth with strategies for travelers to leave less of a mess behind.Pack with great care. How you pack sets the tone for how you will interact with the place you visit. Take as little as you can. Pack useful things like a large scarf or a quick-dry towel that can double as a blanket, pillow, or sun guard. ___16___Save water and energy. Paying for the hotel room doesn’t mean you should waste th e resources. ___17___ Take short showers and reuse towels. Turn off the lights and turn down the heat when you leave.___18___ When you travel with least luggage, it’s not a big deal to hop on a bus, train, or ferry, all of which come with a smaller carbon footprint than private cars or plane rides. Public transportation routes give you a different view of a city and a culture, bring you into contact with locals, and add some colorful stories to your adventure.Avoid single-use plastic. When hanging out, carry a cloth shopping bag for any purchases. ___19___ Avoid takeout meals that produce waste.Leave reviews. ___20___ By taking the time to leave a thoughtful review that analyzes the eco-credibility of a place you’ve visited, you can help the business get recognized for its effort, and encourage other travelers to prioritize (优先处理) environmental standards.A. Use public transportation.B. Pack more in case of an emergency.C. Keep your bag light and easy to carry.D. Avoid using it as much as possible.E. Treat it as you do in your own home.F. Carry a water bottle to avoid single-use plastic bottles.G. This is an important yet often overlooked aspect of travel.湖南省六校2021-2022学年高三下学期2月联考英语试题Can you remember what you ate yesterday? If asked, most people will be able to give a vague description of their main meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner. But can you be sure you’ve noted every snack bar in your car, or every handful of nuts at your desk? ___16___We originally had this suspicion back in 2016, puzzled by the fact that national statistics showed calorie consumption falling dramatically over past decades. Now, the Office for National Statistics has confirmed that people are considerably under-reporting what they ate by 50%.___17___ We can point to at least three potential causes. One is the rise in obesity levels itself. Under-reporting rates are much higher for obese people, because they simply consume more food, and thus have more to remember.Another cause is that the proportion of people who are trying to slim down has been increasing over time. ___18___ It may be driven partly by self-deception or “wishful thinking”.___19___ Both are in terms of how often they happen and how much they contribute to our overall energy intake. Again, there is evidence that food consumed out of the home is one of the most poorly recorded categories in surveys.So, what’s the message conveyed? If people do not know how much they are eating, it can be really hard for them to stick to a diet. ___20___ Therefore, we can ensure what people eat won’t have much impact on their waistlines. If this works, it won’t matter if they can’t remember what they ate yesterday.A. Why is this happening?B. What will come about next?C. Most people will feel that they’ve missed something out.D. We should be looking for new ways to handle this problem.E. The final one is an increase in snacking and eating out recently.F. People are consuming more calories than the national statistics claim.G. Those who want to lose weight are more likely to under-report their eating.四川省成都第七中学2021-2022学年高三下学期入学考试英语试题When early colonial settlers went to America, they took many forms of dance to their new home. Square dancing, one of the oldest forms of American folk dancing, developed from several different Old World group dances, mainly English country dances, and the French quadrille (卡德利尔舞).In the American version, a square is formed by four couples.____16____Each couple stands on one side of the square, the boy on the left and the girl on the right. An American addition to square dancing is the caller.The caller—someone who calls out the dance steps in time to the music—was a completely American invention.____17____Later the dances became so complicated that it was necessary to have someone call out cues (暗示). Thus, dancers didn't have to remember so many steps. The caller didn't just call out “do-se-do your partner”;a good caller also came up with colorful sayings or witty lines that he would say in between the cues such as "Don't be bashful (羞怯的) and don't be afraid."____18____Although popular for years, square dancing seemed to be going out of style and fading away until the early 1930s, when Henry Ford helped revive interest in it. Ford, the automobile manufacturer, used to vacation at the Wayside Inn in Massachusetts.____19____Ford asked Lovett to come to Detroit and teach dances, but Lovett said he couldn't because he had a contract with the inn. Ford solved that problem by buying the inn and Lovett's contract. He took Lovett back to Detroit, where together they established a program for teaching square dancing.____20____A. They stand facing the center of the square.B. Lovett's dance program attracted a lot of audience.C. The caller was important because he told the dancers what to do.D. At first, dancers memorized all the steps for a particular dance.E. A caller might also come up with new dance steps and routines.F. There he enjoyed the dance program run by a man named Benjamin Lovett.G. Square dancing was updated and groups began forming all over the country.南京第一中学2021-2022学年高三下学期开学检测英语试题A little knowledge and a few measures can enormously increase your chances of surviving an earthquake.

So how can we design a life that is less complex and more meaningful? With minimalism (极简主义). ____36____ The following ways will assist you in your journey to living a simper yet fuller life.____37____ Most people’s living space is filled with things that are never used and don’t contribute to their well-being. Separate the ones you do need from the ones you don’t, and th row the latter right into the dustin — orbetter, give them away to people who might actually benefit from them.Appreciate all the amazing things you already have. We constantly compare ourselves to others who seem happier, more beautiful and more important than us. We try our best to imitate those we envy. ____38____ We need to stop comparing and accept ourselves for who we are, with all our imperfections. Take a moment to appreciate what you have.Do one thing at a time. Minimalist living actually means making the most out of each and every moment. We’re usually carrying out different tasks at the same time. So whatever we are doing, our mind is partly wondering somewhere else. ____39____Develop mindfulness. ____40____ Thus you need to develop mindfulness. Mindfulness means fully attending to what’s happening in the present. There are many ways one can do so.

A bad-smelling home is not only unpleasant to visit, but gives the impression that your home is also un clean, which isn’t always the case. Fortunately, you can keep your home smelling fresh and clean with a few techniques.____17____ Additionally, pick up any objects from the floor, such as clothing or towels, and place them in the box. Wash your dishes daily, which will keep your home smelling fresh.Dust the objects in your home once weekly. Rub a soft cloth over your television and top of furniture to remove the dusty layer. Use a polishing spray for extra shine.Wash your bedclothes on a weekly basis. Sheets, blankets and pillow cases often hold germs, which cause a smell to occur. So wash them regularly. ____18____Bathe your dog and its bedding regularly. A dog’s smell can transmit from the animal to your floors, furniture and bedclothes. Wash the dog to prevent smells, as well as dirt, mud and other materials from being transferred from your dog to your items in your home. ____19____ Brushing daily can also release smells and materials that can cause the dog to create a foul smell in your home.Shampoo(用洗涤剂洗)your carpets. ____20____ So the dirty carpets can make your entire home smell not-so-fresh.

This includes your beliefs about your inner qualities and how you think others see you. ___36___ Someone can develop low self-esteem even when they are highly functional and greatly skilled. Understanding this mysterious emotional currency might be the key to unlocking your own self-worth.People with healthy self-esteem don't need to boast about themselves to others. People with low self-esteem may tell you how much everyone loves them, what a great job they do at work, and how amazing they are at pretty everything under the sun even though they really wonder if it's true. People may see them as obnoxious or "full of themselves". ___37___ They are not shy about sharing ideas, including constructive criticisms of others. They also take care of themselves without second-guessing or apologizing. They are the people who we say seem "sure of themselves".If you're starting to think you may have low self-esteem, you can work on the way you talk to yourself. When you turn off negative self-talk, you can open the floor to positive reinforcements and access the courage to showdifferent sides of yourself. It isn't going to feel good at first, though. Keep going until it becomes less and less and maybe even a few awkward laughs in the mirror may help. ___38___However, in serious cases of low or even non-existent self-esteem, you may want to call in a professional or a specialist. Good mental health is important, and professionals doing psychotherapy do not pass judgement or give corrections. ___39___ It is the best way to get at the roots of your real self-esteem problems.___40___ It will take some work but your entire life—from your relationships to your body image to your work habits—will be touched with the kind of power that only comes from someone believing in themselves. This is the hardest part, and the greatest leap. With some changes and support, you can improve your self-esteem and see how everything else changes as a result.A. Self-esteem is not always rooted in reality, though.B. You have the power to shape a new self-perceptionC. This encourages you to speak openly without worry.D. The real test of character is whether they can learn from their mistakesE. Self-esteem refers to a person's overall sense of his or her value or worth.F. People with a healthy level of self-esteem present themselves with a casual confidence.G. With some practice and persistence, you will win this internal struggle to see your self-worth.江苏省高邮市2021-2022学年高三下学期期初学情调研英语试卷You’ve studied hard, you’ve got the grades and now you’re off to university! This is the journey that many students are taking, but how prepared are they to leave home, stand on their own two feet and be self-sufficient? _____36_____Of course, flying the nest to go to university is the opportunity of a lifetime, but to make the most of it needs some preparation before you arrive. _____37_____ You’ll no longer be able to rely on Mum and Dad to feed you or clear up after you, so try to learn how to make some dishes that are quick and easy to prepare. Graduate Peter Rogers told the BBC: “I didn’t really have anything other than basic cooke ry skills before I went to university and found learning to cook was reasonably enjoyable.” Other things to do while at home is to practise some of those household chores, like operating the washing machine or ironing your clothes!______38______ That’s be cause students will probably be living with others such as in a flat share or shared campus-based accommodation. This will also require taking responsibility for managing their finances because,apart from tuition fees, accommodation is likely to be the biggest cost for students living away from home. However, the Higher Education Policy Institute and Unite Students study found only about half of the would-be students surveyed identified rent as the biggest expense and concluded that this suggests more should be done to help in the transition between school and university.______39______ They not just rely on old friends at home. Going to university requires meeting new people and making new friends. This often begins in Freshers’ Week although journalism st udent Emmeke Megannety warns that: “People starting university need to remember that the people you meet in your first week will not necessarily be your friends for life.”______40______A. These domestic skills will be by no means useless.B. This means learning life skills such as cooking and cleaning.C. Besides being excited and nervous, many students are deeply ill-informed about what to expect.D. New students should be self-centered.E. But whatever your expectations, it’s good to be prepared for the time of your life.F. You can fulfill your dreams on your own.G. New students are going to have to be sociable as well.河北省唐山市2021-2022学年高三下学期开学摸底考试英语试题Many families avoid long-term travel while their kids are young or in school. Travelling with babies is cheaper - and there's no school to worry about-but they're unlikely to remember much about the trip. Older children will form longer-lasting memories but you'll need to keep up with their studies, which is the main concern for many parents. ____36____ But for me, traveling with older children doesn't necessarily mean you have to sacrifice the education.In the past 7 months' travelling in Australia, I have witnessed the educational benefits to our daughter Chloe. The biggest blessing we have gained is her desire to learn. ____37____And we are constantly presented with new challenges that encourage her learning and lead to enquiry.____38____It inspires children's sense of adventure, and shows them how to turn dreams into reality. Besides, it pushes them outside their comfort zone and broadens their understanding of life. Most importantly, it allows them to have quality time with the people they love most and form a life-long bond.And remember, just because children are not in a classroom, it doesn't mean they can't have access to formal education. ____39____Distance education and school of the air are good choices, and they offer full support to help kids finish their learning curriculum.Anyway, school shouldn't be a barrier to having one of the greatest experiences of life. There're so many families whose children have returned to class after a year of travel with so much more confidence, knowledge, intelligence, social skills and problem solving skills. Travel hasn't blocked their learning. ____40____It's time to break traditional ideas and teach kids while they travel.A. Instead, it has greatly improved it!B. She has loads of questions for us to answer.C. Actually it encouraged them to travel further.D. They can visit their former school teachers regularly.E. There are several options for educating kids on the road.F. In fact, the benefits of travelling are not just limited to that.G. There never seems to be a right time to have that long-term travel.。

AThe Cool 2022 Travel DestinationsNational Geographic's new list of the most amazing places to visit in 2022, "Best of World 2022" is an inviting mixture of global destinations that will inspire your appetite for travel in the New Year.NatureOur global editors picked the planet's 25 most exciting destinations for 2022! There is really something to appeal to everyone.The best places to enjoy nature include Northern Minnesota, which offers skies filled with thousands of shining stars as it has little or no light pollution.AdventureOne of the inspiring adventure ideas is an invitation to cycle a new bike trail. The route of the Paris to the sea La Seine àVélo trail passes the house and famous water lilies (水仙) of Impressionist painter Claude Monet in Giverny.Culture and HistoryThis brand new 2022 list also celebrates several destinations recommended by UNESCO in honor of how UNESCO has been helping protect cultural and national treasures for 50 years.This selection of cultural centers takes in Procida, an island city located 40 minutes southwest of Naples by boat. This city, famous for its colorful buildings, plans to use its year to bring people a sense of community. Its year-long festival aims to encourage responsible travel throughout the year, and to avoid a crowd of visitors during the summer as happened in the past.FamilyThe best places for families include astonishing settings in the US and further away. One of these is Granada in Spain.At this palace, kids of all ages and their parents can appreciate the unique patterns and designs that promise “A colorful classroom for age-appropriate exploration of math concepts such as shapes, proportion (比例),and measurement”.1. Why does National Geographic offer the "Best of World 2022" ?B. To invite people to find amazing places.A. To attract people to enjoy delicious food.C. To explore the most exciting destinations.D. To increase people's interest in traveling.2. What is the. disadvantage of visiting the cultural centers in the past?A. It's, inconveniently located.B. There were too many people.C. Travelers were not responsible.D. Its colorful buildings faded away.B What kind of destination best suits children who are interested in maths?B. Adventure.A. Nature.C. Culture and History.D. Family.BWhen the disease first hit, nursing homes across the United States tried to proteet the neighbors. They shuttheir doors and banned visitors, leaving seniors separated from the outside world.16-year-old Hita Gupta thought that life wouldn't return to normal for a long time. To support lonely seniors and remind them of how much they're loved, she began delivering care packages to nursing homes in her town of Paoli, Pennsylvania.“When I received a call from the nursing home, I knew I needed to remind them that they aren't alone, and I did everything I could to make sure they knew that," Hita said.The teenager's efforts are a part of her non-profit organization Brighten A Day, which she organized in 2018to "spread joy to seniors, children in the hospital, and frontline workers."With the help of her 10-year-old brother, Divit Gupta, she has sent out almost 100,000 handwritten cards and packages - complete with puzzles, coloring books, and colored pencils - to nursing homes in countries including Ireland, Australia, and Canada.“The response has been so incredible," Hita said. “A lot of the seniors cry when they open the packages and read our notes. It's changing people's lives at a time when they need it the most."Many of the notes are written by Brighten A Day volunteers, who also make videos where they tell jokes, play music, read poetry, or sing. The pair and their volunteers call the seniors to make sure they have someone to talk to.“No one could imagine someone so young coming up with these ideas and delivering them to us across the country, but Hita found a way. Seniors do not feel forgotten or alone. Instead, we see their expressions of joy and gratitude knowing that someone out there is caring for them," a volunteer said.“What we do is to give hope and reminders that there were people out there that truly cared about them and their wellbeing," Hita said. "Brighten A Day really does brighten a day."4. How did the seniors in nursing homes feel when visitors were not allowed in?A. Quiet.B. Delighted.C. Comfortable.D. Lonely.5. What is the main aim of Hita's Brighten A Day project?A. To raise more money for nursing homes.B. To deliver love to seniors at nursing homes.C. To teach seniors to communicate effectively.D. To promote the development of the nursing industry.6. What can we learm about the Brighten A Day project?A. It offers its volunteers the special packages.B. It encourages seniors to use fewer smart devices.C. It is supported by volunteers across the country.D. It was started during the disease first hitting this area.7. Which of the following words can best describe Hita Gupta?A. Caring.B. Curious.C. Faithful.D. Professional.CWhat makes you happy? You may want to answer that spending time with your family, taking a vacation or driving a new sports car makes you happy but the key to happiness may be altruism(利他行为).Helping others may actually increase your happiness.According to Time Magazine, the greatest thinkers in the world have suggested that true happiness is found in helping others and now there is scientific research from a team of psychologists at the University of Missouri-Columbia to prove it.The researchers led by Liudmila Titova and Kennon Sheldon looked at whether pursuing happiness for others will actually make people happier. They found that it does.Two experiments were conducted by the team, according to Psychology Today. In the first experiment there searchers asked participants to recall a time that they tried to make themselves or another person happy. They were asked to write about the event and rate how happy it made them feel.In the second experiment, they were asked to remember a time they tried to make someone else happy and also write about how it made them feel. This experiment elicited a higher rate of happiness than the first."The results of these studies extend findings from previous research by showing that people gain more personal happiness from attempts to make other people happy- an approach that might seem unbelievable for a lot of people at first," researchers wrote in the study.But how does the research translate into real life? According to Time Magazine, find your passion. Give it to people or causes that move you and share your values. Whatever you do, the key is to finding an approach that works for you and let it come naturally. Remember that improving happiness is a benefit of helping others and not the goal.8. What makes people happy according to the first paragraph?A. Driving a new sports car.B. Travelling during a vacation.C. Offering generosity to others.D. Spending time with their family.9. How did the researchers prove their findings?A. By using examples.B. By making experiments.C. By clarifying a concept.D. By demonstrating facts.10. What does the underlined word "elicit" mean in paragraph 5?A. Produce.B. Improve.C. Display.D. Discover.11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Pursuing Happiness for Others CountsB. Sharing Your Values Will Make SenseC. Improving Happiness Benefits You MuchD. Helping Others Can Improve HappinessDA. green sea turtle(海龟)struggled to move in the cold water off the coast of Texas in the Gulf of Mexico.7hißwater was normally warm, but an extreme cold front from the Arctic swept the area, dropping the airf emiperature below freezing. The cold-blooded sea turtle became almost frozen: Its body stopped moving, and it couldn't get a breath of air. Without help, these sea turtles would have died underwater.A conservation group on South Padre Island was ready to help. On the first day of the storm, staff and volunteers from Sea Turtle, Inc., headed out on boats to rescue the sea turtles. They loaded them onto trucks and transported them to the organization's rescue center.The group usually rescued only about a hundred turtles on days when the weather briefly got cold. But this February storm was different: By the second day, volunteers had already pulled more than 600 frozen sea turtles from the water.Over the next five days, new sea turtles arrived during the daytime. At night, the volunteers wore headbands with flashlights to provide medical care in the dark building. They tried to keep the sea turtles clean while they were out of the water.Eight days after the storm began, the water was finally warm enough to release the sea turtles. About 30miles offshore, the boat stopped, and the workers put over 2,300 sea turtles back into the ocean.If the workers and volunteers hadn't rescued these sea turtles, none of them would have survived. “We were up all night, every night, and the release was exhausting, too," a volunteer said. "But it was worth it to watch those sea turtles go down the slides back where they belong."12. Why did the green sea turtles struggle to move in the water?A. They were about to sleep in winter.B. The water around was usually warm.C. They became trapped by fishing nets.D. A freezing cold front suddenly occurred.13. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A. What kind of care the sea turtles received.B. Why the volunteers went to the dark center.C. How the volunteers looked after the turtles.D. Whether it was necessary to keep turtles clean.14. What may be the direct result of the act of releasing?A. More sea turtles will be born in this area.B. Many sea turtles had died before releasing.C. The volunteers had a sense of achievement.D. A lot of green sea turtles were finally rescued.15. What does this text want to convey?A. We should live in harmony with nature.B. Great things may be done by mass efforts.C. Nature is a mirror reflecting human activities.D. It is crucial to improve the habitat of sea turtles.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

The viruses that cause colds, the flu and COVID-19 are spread the same way-through droplets from the nose and mouth of infected people.The time varies when someone with any of the illnesses will start feeling sick. Some people infected with the coronavirus (冠状病毒) don’t experience any symptoms, but it’s still possible for them to spread it.Cough, fever, tiredness and muscle aches are common to both the flu and COVID-19, says Kristen Coleman, as assistant research professor at the University of Maryland School of Public Health. Common colds, meanwhile, are often milder with symptoms including a stuffy nose. Fevers are more common with the flu.Despite some false descriptions online, the viruses have not merged (合并) to create a new illness. But it’s possible to get the flu and COVID-19 at the same time, which some are calling “flurona”. “A co-infection of any kind can be severe or worsen your symptoms altogether,” says Coleman. “If flu cases continue to rise, we can expect to see more of these types of viral co-infections in the coming weeks or months.”With many similar symptoms caused by the three virus types, testing remains the best choice to determine which one you may have. Some pharmacies (药房) offer testing for both viruses at the same time, Coleman notes. “This can help doctors offer the right treatment. Butmost do not have the ability to routinely do this, especially during a COVID-19 surge(激增),” Coleman says.Getting vaccinated (打疫苗) helps to reduce the spread of the viruses. The U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it is safe to get a flu and COVID-19 shot or booster at the same time.4.What conclusion can we draw from the second paragraph?A.People with COVID-19 can spread it to others only when they are having obvious symptoms.B.People with COVID-19 start to feel sick much earlier than people with other illnesses.C.People start to feel sick around the same time with colds, the flu, or COVID-19.D.People start to feel sick at different times for each illness.5.What is NOT mentioned as symptoms of a cold, the flu or COVID-19?A.Cough.B.Tiredness.C.Throat aches.D.A high temperature.6.What can we know from the fifth paragraph?A.Necessary testing contributes to proper treatment.B.COVID-19 is out of control due to lack of testing.C.Doctors can’t treat patients without testing results.D.Pharmacies can offer testing only with doctors’ permission.7.What is recommended in the passage to avoid COVID-19?A.Getting tested.B.Getting treated.C.Getting assisted.D.Getting vaccinated.French fries and chips are commonly eaten around the world. However, a growing global potato shortage is limiting french fry orders in various countries.The coronavirus pandemic and extreme weather have caused supply chain break, which has led to a number of popular items, including cream cheese, going short. Potatoes are the latest items to join the list.In Japan, McDonald’s locations stopped offering large and medium-size french fry orders in late December. Pandemic-related supply chain issues and floods in the Port of Vancouver in British Columbia delayed potato shipments.Days later, South Africa’s leading makers of potato chips warned that potatoes were in disturbingly short supply. A bad frost and too much rainfall led to low local yields. Global sourcing shortages were already a problem.In Kenya this January, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) locations took french fries off of their menus. Shipping delays caused by the pandemic held up containers full of potatoes for more than a month. KFC allowed customers to swap in other menu items in place of fries in combo meals (套餐).Jacques Theunissen, KFC’s chief executive for East Africa, told a Kenyan newspaper that it could not easily switch to Kenyan local potatoes because of global quality standards. “All suppliers need to go through the global quality assurance approval process, ” he said.The United States are among the world’s top potato producers. However, in 2021, U. S. farmers had to destroy millions of potatoes. Lockdowns and stay-at-home orders led to a sharp decline in demand, including from restaurants. Being the USA’s largest overseas market for potatoes sent by ship from North America, McDonald’s in Japan said it was considering flying in potatoes to meet demand until the backup in Vancouver was resolved. However, heavy snow in early January further delayed shipments. After, the company announced that it would be sticking with its small-order maximum for at least another month.8.Which is the BEST definition of the underlined word “yield”?A.quantities produced.B.harvests delayed.C.crops destroyed.D.farms created.9.How did shipping delays affect KFC in Kenya?A.They caused KFC to limit the number of potatoes people could buy.B.They caused KFC to give customers other items instead of potatoes.C.They caused KFC to establish a new quality assurance process.D.They caused KFC to start buying potatoes from local farms.10.According to the article, why did U. S. farmers destroy their potatoes?A.Much of their potato crop was affected by a plant disease.B.Stay-at-home orders led to a decrease in demand for potatoes.C.Flooding at the Port of Vancouver prevented the shipment of U. S. goods.D.McDonald’s restaurants in Japan allowed people to order only small fries. 11.What is the main idea of the article?A.Supply chain has broken due to bad weather.B.Supply chain break has caused Kenya’s KFC to use local potatoes.C.Shipping delays has made the USA’s farmers destroy their potatoes.D.A growing global potato shortage is affecting french fries from Japan to Kenya.As Alexandria Country Day School’s sixth-graders created miniature 3D printed villages to address homelessness, they learned lessons far beyond technology.“It Takes a Village” began as a project for a science class, inspired by life-size 3D-printed homes built by Austin, Texas-based technology company Icon.No strangers to classroom 3D projects, the students were fascinated by Icon’s use of a similar process to create homes made of inexpensive concrete-like material. Unlike standard construction methods, the process of building these durable homes takes just a few days.While creating their mini 3D buildings, the students explored how such technology allows design freedom and quick changes. Mathematical conversions helped get the relations right. For example, a real 25-foot-by-20-foot one-bedroom house would be printed as 40-millimeter-by-32-millimeter (about 1 1/2 inch by 1 1/4 inch) for their mini village. Salwa Seman, 11, said that getting the dimensions and settings correct before construction began was challenging as she created a curved-wall amphitheater (圆形剧场).The tech-focused project quickly evolved into “an exercise in empathy (共情), innovation and cooperation designed to bring about lasting change”. “When most people think of helping the homeless, they think of food and clothing drives,” said Juliet Galicia, 11. “While necessary, those are temporary fixes. Even housing by itself is not a complete solution.”In designing their leave-homelessness-behind neighborhoods, priorities were shelter, food stores, schools, and health centers. But to build a sense of belonging and purpose, the miniature communities also emphasized areas for frequent interaction among residents. “We wanted to make it feel more like a real community,” said Luke Wazorko, 11. A community garden, a place to raise chickens, an amphitheater for shared events, bus stops for access tojobs, and infrastructure for Wi-Fi and cellphones to help in job searches were important features to offer formerly unhoused residents.Amber Fogarty, president of a nonprofit organization tackling homelessness in Austin, said, “Housing alone will never solve homelessness, but community will. People need a place where they are known, cared for and loved.”12.Which can be used to describe homes created by Icon?A.Hard-sided.B.Long-lasting.C.Rough-edged.D.Strong-minded.13.What conclusion can we draw from Galicia’ words?A.Juliet Galicia has participated in food and clothing drives in the past.B.Temporary solutions have proved to be of little help to unhoused people.C.Providing unhoused people with a place to live will solve all of their problems.D.A comprehensive approach is required to fully address the issue of homelessness. 14.The author may agree to the ideas EXCEPT that________.A.a team of people can use 3D printing to build homesB.builders can adapt a 3D-printed design to fit a person’s preferencesC.the students faced challenges in building their miniature communitiesD.places for personal interactions are an important aspect of a community15.What is the purpose of the sixth paragraph?A.To emphasize community gardens as the most important part of neighborhoods.B.To illustrate technology has nothing to do with helping unhoused people.C.To show specific ways the students focused on more than just housing.D.To promote the project as a profitable design to Austin.二、七选五snowflakes have in common, though, is their source. They form from the moisture in cloudsthose clouds need temperatures below freezing. However, if the air gets too cold, a cloud won’t hold enough water for any snowflakes to fall. This requires a balance. Snow can form in cooler environments, but the colder it gets, the less moisture there is to make a snowflake.In fact, moisture must supersaturate a cloud’s air for a flake to form, which means there is more water in the air than would normally be possible. When there is too much water in the air, 19 Some of that water can flash freeze into crystals. These crystals then lazily fall to the ground. We call them snowflakes.20 Scientists call it a nucleus, which serves as the center around which an ice crystal forms. Without something to attach to, water droplets (水滴) can’t freeze. Even when the air temperature is well below freezing, water droplets will remain liquid. They freeze only when they have a solid object onto which they can stick. However, in the right conditions, drops of water will attach to a nucleus. They do it one by one. building an ice crystal.A.it gets cooler the higher you go.B.But how exactly does this work?C.a cloud will try to rid itself of the extra water.D.Clouds need one more thing to turn moisture into a flake.E.Take a close look at snowflakes and you might be surprised.F.Snowflakes do in fact come in a wide range of shapes and sizes.G.they encounter slightly different atmospheric conditions along the way.三、完形填空Last year marked 20 years since the deadliest accident in the history of Italian aviationCitation CJ2.The date of the accident was October 8th, 2001.

山东省名校考试联盟高三下学期开学考试英语试题

山东名校考试联盟高三年级下学期开学联考第一节(共15 小题;每小题2.5分,满分 37.5分)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。

ASome bridges are suspended at dizzy heights, others stretch for miles. Take a look at some of the world's greatest bridges.THE MOST TERRIFYING——Zhangjiajie Glass BridgeIf you're afraid of heights, you might not want to walk along the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in central China, which is the world's longest and highest glass bridge. It is suspended 300 metres above the ground, and walkers can see the sheer(陡峭的) drop below as they walk over 99 glass panels. The terrifying structure was pleted in December 2015and cost around £2.6 million to build.How safe is it? To test it, Chinese officials struckthe bridge with hammers and drove a car over it.THE TILTING(倾斜的) BRIDGE——Gateshead Millennium BridgeThe Gateshead Millennium Bridge in the northeast of England is the world's first tilting bridge. A tilting bridge is a moving bridge that uses motors to lift the arching structure——rather than opening in the middle and lifting up like a drawbridge——to allow ships to pass underneath.It has eight motors and can tilt at about 40°i n four and a half minutes, making it a most extraordinary one throughout the world. Opened to the public in 2001, the bridge spans the River Tyne.THE LONGEST BRIDGE——DanyangKunshan Grand BridgeAt an enormous 102 miles, DanyangKunshan Grand Bridge in China is the world's longest bridge. Its span is the same as the distance from Birmingham to London, and it took a workforce of 10,000 people four years to plete it. Around 450,000 tons of steel was used in its construction, and it is so stable that it can stand 8magnitude earthquakes or being hit by a 300,000ton ship. It can even cope with the power of a strong typhoon.1. Why is Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge the most terrifying bridge?A. It is made of glass.B. It is the longest bridge.C. It towers high in the sky.D. It stands hammerhitting.2. What is special of the Gateshead Millennium Bridge?A. It is the world's first moving bridge.B. It can open in the middle and lift up.C. It costs tons of steel in the construction.D. It uses 8 motors to tilt in a few minutes.3. What do these three bridges have in mon?A. They took millions to plete.B. They span an astonishing length.C. They are the wonders of engineering.D. They are the stablest bridges in the world.BIn 2014, an art student from university went to Beijing Zoo. Little did he know that a chance encounter with corals (珊瑚) there would start a lifelong passion.Until today, Xu Yitang, a Beijing native, has settled in Hainan province, where he serves as a coral conservationist. For Xu, who had been studying Peking Opera since childhood, being a coral conservationist was an unexpected turn of events.After he first saw corals at the zoo, he began to frequent the local market to learn about coral farming from sellers of coral products. He also learned diving and underwater photography to get a closer look at corals for research purposes.Each day, he spends several hours diving deep under the waves to observe and document the growth and development of the creatures and shares photos and videos of corals on social media platforms. His goal was to raise awareness and knowledge about corals, so that people can learn how to protect them effectively.As he studied deeper into the creature, he learned that corals are known as “underwater gardens” of the ocean, providing a home for a quarter of all ocean life.Unfortunately, with the strengthening of the greenhouse effect, rising sea temperatures have led to coral bleaching(白化). Xu felt an increasing sense of urgency and responsibility to protect them.While pursuing his passion to protect corals, he met his life partner, Liu Xiwen, through their shared hobby of diving in Hainan. “Unlike many young people who care about their dress and appearance, he is simply focused on protecting corals,”says Liu about Xu.“Despite his skin injury from spending long hours in the seawater, his attitude is different from what I've seen in most young people in Beijing, and it's attractive to me.”4. What can we learn about Xu Yitang from the first paragraph?A. He majored in coral protection.B. He was born in Hainan province.C. He worked in Beijing as a coral expert.D. He found his love for corals by chance.5. Why does Xu Yitang share photos and videos of corals on social media?A. To record his exploring process.B. To spread knowledge about corals.C. To introduce his diving experience.D. To show off his photography ability.6. What contributed to the coral bleaching?A. The pollution of ocean environment.B. The development of ocean farming.C. The damage to underwater gardens.D. The increase in ocean temperatures.7. Which of the following best describes Xu Yitang?A. Emotional.B. Devoted.C. Publicspirited.D. Curiositydriven.CTropical(热带的) forests could bee so hot that some kinds of leaves will no longer be able to conduct photosynthesis (光合作用), according to a study. The photosynthetic machinery in tropical trees begins to fail at about 46.7℃ on average. The research suggests that forests may be nearing dangerous temperature sooner than expected. Models predict that once we hit a global temperature increase of 3.9℃, these forests might experience mass leaf damage.Chris Doughty, an associate professor at Northern Arizona University and the lead researcher of the study, said the leafwarming experiments had revealed a nonlinear rise in temperatures. “We were really surprised that when we warmed leaves by 2, 3 or 4℃, the highest leaf temperatures actually increased by 8℃. This shows a concerning nonlinear feedback that we were not expecting.” said Doughty. “If we adopt a donothing response to climate change and tropical forest air temperatures increase by greater than 4℃, there could be massive leaf death.” he added.Avoiding high emissions(排放) in the first place is key to stabilizing temperatures. “We should do all we can to avoid highemissions. Under lowemissions, almost all tropical forest tree leaves can avoid death from overheating and the trees will survive,” said Simon Lewis, a professor of global change science at University College London. “Yet what the study doesn't look at is heatwaves. We still might see tree deaths from overheating for limited periods during heatwaves under lower emissions.”Researchers suggest that the damage is not yet unchanged. “V ote for people who areserious about addressing climate change and transferring to lowcarbon economies, ”Disney, one researcher, advocated. More generally, we can all recognize the importance of supporting those countries and people who live in and rely on tropical forests economically, But the serious changes to tropical forests don't just affect the local people it's a global issue.8. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “nonlinear” in Paragraph 2?A. Global.B. Dramatic.C. Steady.D. Minor.9. What is most crucial in keeping temperatures stable?A. Planting more trees.B. Exploring heatwaves.C. Conducting researches.D. Pursuing low emissions.10. What was Disney's suggestion in the last paragraph?A. Promoting global efforts.B. Seeking economic support.C. Helping tropical countries.D. Boosting lowcarbon education.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Global warming harms trees.B. Tropical forests lose functions.C. Tropical leaves struggle in heat.D. Forests near dangerous temperature.DDementia (痴呆), a serious mental disorder caused by brain disease or injury, affects the ability to think, remember and behave normally. 160,000 people have some forms of dementia in Sweden, Alzheimer's disease being the most mon. At the same time, many new diagnostic(诊断的) methods and earlyintervention treatment have been developed in recent years, which highlights the need to identify more risk factors for the disease.Previous studies have demonstrated a possible association between depression and dementia. A present study now clearly shows that people who have been diagnosed with depression are more likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Unlike the previous ones, the study was conducted using Region Stockholm's administrative healthcare database, which contains all healthcare contacts recorded by the region. It shows that the risk of Alzheimer's disease was more than twice as high in patients with stress and in patients withdepression as it was in patients without either condition; in patients with both depression it was up to four times as high.“The reason for it is unknown,” says the study's last author Axel C. Carlsson. “The finding is important in that it enables us to improve preventative efforts and understand links with the other risk factors for dementia.The researchers focused on patients between the ages of 18 and 65 and between 2012 and 2013. They identified 44,447 people with a diagnosis of depression and followed them for eight years to see how many of them were later diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. A parison with all other 1,362,548 individuals in the age group showed that more people with depression had also been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.“It's very unmon for people in this age group to develop dementia, so we need to identify all possible risk factors for the disease,” says Dr Carlsson. “We show here that the diagnosis is more mon in people who have suffered depression, but more studies will be required if we're to demonstrate any reason there.12. What do the previous studies and the present one differ in?A. The target.B. The method.C. The purpose.D. The theory.13. Why is the new finding important?A. It clarifies the condition of dementia.B. It makes clear the risks of depression.C. It confirms the previous study finding.D. It helps with the dementia prevention.14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about concerning the study?A. Its process.B. Its background.C. Its application.D. Its assessment.15. What may the followup studies focus on?A. Why dementia spreads wide in Sweden.B. What links exist among mental diseases.C. How depression connects with dementia.D. What other risk factors lead to dementia.第二节(共5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5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。
