2024届新疆乌鲁木齐市实验学校高三上学期1月月考英语试题及答案

乌鲁木齐市实验学校2023-2024学年高三上学期1月月考英语试题总分120分考试时间120分钟一、阅读理解（共40分）EUROPE is home to a variety of cultural treasures. Lonely Planet, the world’s largest travel guide publisher, has offered pairs of cities for culture-hungry but time poor travelers.London and ParisIt takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar, ahigh-speed railway service. The two capital cities have been competing in fashion, art and nightlife for decades — but each secretly looks up to the other. No one can doubt the grand and impressive beauty of Paris’ Louvre Museum, but if you want to save money, you cannot skip the British Museum free to visit. Compared with London, Paris has more outdoor attractions, such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.In Paris, you’ll see diners linger(逗留) over red wine. While in London, you can try some afternoon tea, eat fish and chips or salted cake.Vienna and BratislavaAustrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train. But since they are linked by the Danube River, the best way to travel is by ship. A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience everything from 17th century’s Habsburg dynast splendor to sci-fi restaurants.Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces. You can appreciate the perfect blending(融合) of architecture and nature in the grand Scholoss Schonbrunn Palace, and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee, which has made its way to the world’s cultural heritage.Bratislava is best known for its fine dining—the remarkable UFO restaurant. Youcan enjoy a meat-filled dinner here in an amazing setting.1．What’s the relationship between London and Paris according to the text?A．They help each other.B．They attack each other.C．They admire each other.D．They don’t like each other. 2．What are the advantages of Paris mentioned in the article?a. Louvre Museumb. Free access to museumsc. More outdoor attractionsd. Better wines and perfumesA．ac B．cd C．acd D．bcd 3．Lonely Planet recommends these two pairs of cities because _________.A．they are not expensive to visitB．they are best known to the worldC．they are always enemies between each otherD．they are close but different in many aspects“The first domestic geese may have lived about 7,000 years ago in what is now China. That may make them the earliest bird to be domesticated, ” says Masaki Eda at the Hokkaido University Museum in Sapporo, Japan. Eda is part of a team that has unearthed an archaeological (考古的)site in Eastern China called Tianluoshan, which was a Stone Age village between about 7, 000 and 5, 500 years ago. “Its resident lived basically by killing wild animals and looking for plants that can be eaten, ”says Eda, “but they also grew rice. ”The team has now identified 232 goose bones at Tianluoshan, four of which belonged to immature geese that were less than 16 weeks old, with the youngest probably less than 8 weeks old. This implies they must have hatched at Tianluoshan, because they were too young to have flown in from elsewhere. Some of the adult geese also seem to have been locally bred(饲养), based on thechemical make-up of their bones, which reflects the water they drank. These locally bred birds were all almost the same size, indicating captive breeding( 圈养) . Finally, the team carbon-dated the bones and found that the locally bred geese lived about 7, 000 years ago.“The main thing that stood out for me is the fact they actually did radiocarbon dating on the bird bones, ” says Julia Best at Cardiff University in the UK. This makes the dating much more reliable than if the team had simply dated the surrounding materials. ”If geese were domesticated 7, 000 years ago, that would make them the first bird to be domesticated, ”says Eda. The other candidate is the chicken, but there has been an argument over when and where this first appeared, A study published in 2014 reported that chickens were domesticated in Northern China as early as 10, 000 years ago, based on DNA from bones. However, the bones weren’t directly dated and “a lot of the things they claimed were chickens were pheasants(野鸡)”, says Best.“Domestic chickens only appeared around 5,500 years ago. With the firm evidence we currently have, I think it is true, ”she says, but adds that the domestication of chickens is understudied, so the story could well change as more evidence emerges.4．What can we say about Tianluoshan?A．It appeared at least 10, 000 years ago.B．It was a Stone Age village in Northern China.C．Its residents grew rice and kept geese as pets.D．Its residents were essentially hunter-gatherers.5．What is stressed in the second paragraph?A．The main characteristics of geeseB．The proof of goose domesticationC．The challenges for immature geeseD．The chemical make-up of goose bones6．What does Julia Best currently tend to believe?A．Geese were domesticated before chickens.B．Radiocarbon dating on goose bones was unreliable.C．Domestic chickens were first spotted in Eastern China.D．The analysis of DNA from chicken bones was dependable.7．What is the main purpose of this text?A．To advertise.B．To persuade.C．To report.D．To instruct.Sometimes one plus one does equal three, as was the case when McNee, a basketball coach, met Mandekic. When Mandekic, a math teacher, told McNee how hard it was to get students excited about math at a gathering, he suggested, “Why not throw in something they enjoy, like sports?” “You are kidding!” Mandekic dismissed his idea at the moment.The idea of mixing basketball and mathematics got its first shot two years later, when Mandekic and McNee, the now colleagues - who had launched a tutoring non-profit - were invited to run a summer-school program for kids who’d failed Grade 9 math at Vanier School.When the students showed up for their first day, they weren’t exactly thrilled. Over the next few hours, Mandekic and McNee gave the kids techniques to improve their shooting while also helping them calculate their field-goal percentage - which, in turn, taught them math knowledge. At the end of the game, the winning team was determined based on which group had the highest total percentage and had done the most efficient math. “When the bell rang, they were so focused on collecting their data and figuring out which team won that they didn’t leave,” says Mandekic. The classes, later named BallMatics, soon spread to other schools.Later, McNee and Mandekic established a private school called Uchenna. Atthe school, kids with excellent basketball skills study all subjects, train at their sport and work part-time helping out with the BallMatics after-school programs. For the school’s first graduates, the value of BallMatics is clear: all of the 16 boys landed university scholarships for their performance in the classroom, not on the court. “The school’s commitment to academics is the key reason for our success. The coaches would bench students who didn’t keep up in class.” Abbott, one of them, says, “At Uchenna, we were student athletes, after all, not athlete students.”8．How did McNee’s suggestion sound to Mandekic at first?A．Confusing.B．Absurd.C．Practical.D．Professional. 9．Why did other schools welcome the classes?A．They enhanced students’ concentration.B．They improved students’ shooting techniques.C．They helped students learn math unknowingly.D．They guaranteed students’ show-up percentage.10．What can be inferred from Abbott’s words?A．Students got balanced development.B．The coaches cared little about students.C．Uchenna attracted more and more students.D．He doubted the education idea of the school.11．What is the best title for the text?A．Big Win B．Math StrugglingC．Numbers Game D．Athlete TrainingSchool had just started in August when Conner began throwing up for no reason. It wasn’t long before the boy also began suffering terrible headaches. In February a 1.7-inch tumor was found in his brain and Conner was set to begin toreceive radiation (放射疗法) treatments. Before treatments start, technicians make a white plastic mask (面罩) to keep patients immoveable and protect unaffected parts of the brain while radiation is directed at the tumor.It’s an unpleasant experience and a frightening time. The doctor Cook decided that the masks could at least be made to look like something fun—maybe Batman or Mickey Mouse. “I started thinking these masks are white and not fun at all for kids,” she told The Greenville News. “I felt like if we could make them a little more fun for them, they might be a little more excited about coming in for the treatment. Because the kids are afraid. While the treatment itself isn’t physically painful, it can cause a lot of anxiety (焦虑). And the treatment is required daily for up to six weeks.”And the masks really make a difference. “The kids really like them,” Cook said. “It makes what is, let’s face it, a terrible experience, a nice experience because they get to choose something themselves.”When new children come in for the treatment, Cook finds out what their favorite movies or cartoon characters are. Then she sets about creating the mask by drawing the image she wants onto paper, sticking it with glue, and once it’s dry, she applies the colors using paints. Each child can take the mask home once the treatment ends.“Coming to the doctor always means fear and pain. I wanted to make it fun,” she said. “The kids really love it. It’s something they enjoy and can relate to. And it fills an interest I have. I get great pleasure from it.”12．Why is the plastic mask used according to paragraph 1?A．To protect the brain.B．To speed the treatment.C．To reduce the headache.D．To help with a health check. 13．What can we know about the radiation treatment?A．It can be received at home.B．It will cause huge physical pain.C．It may make the patients feel worried.D．It needs to be completed in amonth.14．What does Cook do to help the children being treated?A．Show them their favorite movies.B．Offer them some free masks as gifts.C．Dress them up as cartoon characters.D．Make the masks more interesting to kids.15．What does the author want to show by telling this story?A．Love can treat the terrible sickness.B．Kindness can bring warmth and joy.C．Health matters to everyone.D．Creativity leads to success.二、七选五（共10分）三、完形填空（共15分）32．A．common B．strong C．subjective D．low 33．A．Therefore B．Instantly C．Obviously D．Finally 34．A．learned from B．dealt with C．focused onD．apologized to35．A．views B．explanations C．endings D．translations 36．A．shudder B．listen C．scold D．distribute 37．A．order B．instruction C．performance D．speech 38．A．sadness B．disbelief C．anger D．relief 39．A．delivered B．attended C．ended D．practiced 40．A．determined B．amazed C．satisfied D．amused四、用单词的适当形式完成短文（共15分）五、作文（共15分）51．Directions: Write an English passage according to the instructions given below in Chinese.

Usually strawberry season runs through April. This is entirely weather dependent, however.It's easy not to think much about the intelligence of insects. Small creatures with even smaller brains—how smart can they be? But as researchers begin to rethink how animals think, even insects are being seen in a newlight. Now a new study from the University or Bristol finds that Heliconius butterflies(蝴蝶) have the ability to learn about space.To test the butterflies’ spatial learning abilities, the researchers set up experiments across three different spatial levels, each reflecting behaviors significant to their natural environment. First, they checked if the butterflies could find food among 16 flowers in a small area. Next, they enlarged the space, seeing if the butterflies could choose the correct side of a larger maze(迷宫) for food. Finally, they used a big outdoor cage to see if the butterflies could find their way through a wide T-maze for food. The butterflies succeeded in all tests.The study's senior author, Dr. Stephen Montgomery, notes that these findings show the difficult behaviors that even familiar animals like butterflies exhibit as part of their natural ecology(生态). These species are processing diverse information from their environment and utilizing it to perform difficult tasks—all with brains just a few millimeters wide.The researchers plan to further investigate Heliconius butterflies’ spatial learning abilities by comparing them to closely related species that do not feed on pollen(花粉). This will help show how an animal's environment can affect the development of its thinking skills.Co-lead author Dr. Priscila Moura stresses the significance of these findings, saying that they provide actual evidence of the butterflies’ fascinating spatial learning abilities, a subject that has been discussed for nearly a century. With the new understanding, the researchers can continue to explore insect intelligence and behavior.24. What did the University of Bristol's study find about Hehiconius butterflies?A. They are capable of spatial learning.B. They require assistance in finding food.C. They can fly long distances without rest.D. They have a social circle like other insects.25. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on?A. The research benefits.B. The research process.C. The research papers.D. The research team.26. What does the underlined word “utilizing” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Checking.B. Seeking.C. Judging.D. Using.27. What is Dr. Priscila Moura's attitude toward the findings?A. Doubtful.B. Puzzled.C. Supportive.D. Unclear.CAnimal lovers have long suspected that playing with pups is good for the mental and physical health, and now science has confirmed it — for students in particular.A new study done by researchers at the University of British Columbia concluded that the college students who spent time on drop-in dog therapy (治疗) sessions experienced an increase in feelings of wellness and a reduction in overall stress. The study, as reported by Science Daily, indicates that playing with pups is not only popular with the students, but also beneficial to their mental and physical health. This finding was seen across gender (性别).The study, published on March 12 in the journal Stress and Health, involved 246 students who were surveyed before and after they dropped by dog therapy sessions. The young participants were given free access to pet, hug and talk to 7 to 12 therapy dogs. Additionally, they filled out questionnaires right before and right after hanging with the dogs, as well as 10 hours later.According to researchers, these young adults experienced a notable increase in happiness, a significant reduction in stress and a flood of energy right after their sessions with the pups. Although the feelings of happiness and satisfaction weren’t long-lasting, researchers say these effects have clear, positive advantages.“These therapy sessions clearly provide benefits for students in the short term, so we think universities should try to schedule them during particularly stressful times, such as around exam periods,” Frances Chen, assistant professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia and the study’s senior author, told Science Daily. “Even having therapy dogs around while students are working on their out-of-class assignments could be helpful.”28. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. College students don’t like to play with pups.B. Playing with pups is not popular among college students.C. People, especially college students, are under great pressure.D. Playing with pups benefits males and females mentally and physically.29. What does the new study say about the pups?A. They are only good for college students.B. They are only beneficial to the students’ physical health.C. They can increase people’s feelings of happiness and satisfaction.D. They can create positive feelings that last very long.30. According to Frances Chen, universities should allow their students ______.A. to have therapy dogs around to avoid great stressB. to have therapy dogs around during each examC. to have therapy dogs around during their classD. to have therapy dogs around to achieve good grades31. What may be the best title for the text?A. Pups, best friends of humansB. Pups, therapies for studentsC. Animal lovers and pupsD. Pets keeping and the soulmean the difference between dignity and indignity?”A. He enjoys being alone.B. He has an innovative mind.C. He used to be a health worker.D. He longed to be a businessman.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。

上海市七宝中学2024-2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题

上海市七宝中学2024-2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题

上海市七宝中学2024-2025学年高三上学期第一次月考英语试题一、语法填空Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soliders, while the people 1 (help) civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat or calculated the length of the year, or manured (施肥) a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars (纪念柱) in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a solider. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are 2 that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not 3 (civilized). Animals fight; so 4 savages (野蛮人); so to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently — this, after all, is 5 conquerors and generals have done — is not being civilized. People fight 6 (settle) quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side 7 kill off greater number of the other side, and then saying that the side which has killed most 8 (win). It means 9 (say) that power is right.This is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars,10 millions of people were killed or disabled. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life-nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.二、选词填空Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Only two countries in the advanced world provide no guarantee for paid leave from work to care for a newborn child. Last spring one of the two, Australia, gave up the bad distinction by setting up paid family leave starting in 2011. I wasn’t surprised when this didn’t make the news here in the United States - we’re now the only wealthy country without such a policy.The United States does have one explicit family policy, the Family and Medical Leave Act, passed in 1993. It 11 workers to as much as 12 week’s unpaid leave for care of a newborn or dealing with a family medical problem. Despite the 12 of the benefit, the Chamber of Commerce and other business groups fought it bitterly, describing it as “government-run personnel management” and a “dangerous precedent (先例)”. In fact, every step of the way, as (usually) Democratic leaders have tried to introduce work-family balance measures into the law, business groups have been strongly 13 .As Yale law professor Anne Alstott, argues, 14 parental support depends on defining the family as a social good that, in some sense, society must pay for. Parents are 15 in many ways in their lives: there is “no exit” when it comes to children. Society expects parents to provide their children with continuity of care, meaning the 16 and intimate care that human beings need to develop their intellectual, emotional and moral capabilities. And society expects parents to persist in their roles for 18 years, or longer if needed.While most parents do this out of love, there are public punishments for not providing care. What parents do, in other words, is of deep 17 to the state, for the obvious reason that caring for children is not only 18 urgent but important to the future of society. The state recognizes this in the large body of family laws that govern children’s welfare, yet parents receive little help in meeting the life-changing obligations society 19 . To classify parenting as apersonal choice for which there is no collective responsibility is not merely to ignore the social benefits of good parenting, really, it is to steal those benefits because they accrue (累积) to the whole of society as today’s children become tomorrow’s citizens. In fact, by some 20 , the value of parental investments in children, investments of time and money, is equal to 20%-30% of GDP. If these investments bring huge social benefits-as they clearly do-the benefits of providing more social support for the family should be that much clearer.三、完形填空Before 1815 manufacturing in the United States had been done in homes or shops by skilled artisans. As master craft workers, they imparted the knowledge of their trades to apprentices (学徒) and journeymen (熟练工). 21 women often worked in their homes part-time, making finished articles from raw material supplied by merchant capitalists. After 1815 this older form of manufacturing began to 22 factories with machinery tended by unskilled or semiskilled laborers. 23 transportation networks, the rise of cities, and the availability of capital and credit all stimulated the shift to factory production.Apprentices were considered part of the family, and masters were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them with some education and for 24 their moral behavior. Journeymen knew that if they 25 their skill, they could become respected master artisans with their own shops. Also, skilled artisans did not work by the clock.The factory changed that. Goods produced by factories were not as finished or elegant as those done by hand, and pride in craftsmanship gave way to the 26 to increase rates of productivity. The new methods of doing business involved a new and stricter sense of time. Absenteeism and lateness hurt productivity and, since work was specialized, 27 the regular factory routine. Industrialization not only produced a fundamental change in the way work was organized; it 28 the very nature of work.The first generation to experience these changes did not adopt the new attitudes easily. The factory clock became the symbol of the new work rules. One mill worker who finally 29 complained revealingly about “obedience to the ding-dong of the bell-just as though we are so many living machines.” With the 30 of personal freedom also came the loss of standingin the community. Unlike artisan workshops in which apprentices worked 31 with the masters supervising them, factories sharply separated workers from management. Few workers rose through the ranks to supervisory positions, and even well-paid workers sensed their 32 in status.In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. The labor movement gathered some momentum (动力，势头) in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor’s strength 33 . During hard times, few workers were willing to strike or 34 collective action. And skilled craft workers, who led the union movement, did not feel a particularly strong bond with semiskilled factory workers and unskilled laborers. More than a decade of agitation (激烈争论) did finally bring a workday shortened to 10 hours to most industries by the 1850s’, and the courts also recognized workers’ right to strike, but these 35 had little immediate impact. 21．A．Otherwise B．Moreover C．However D．Therefore 22．A．give way to B．make up for C．get rid of D．end up with 23．A．Expensive B．Public C．Difficult D．Cheap 24．A．displaying B．supervising C．respecting D．predicting 25．A．shared B．assessed C．perfected D．applied 26．A．pressure B．hatred C．freedom D．disappointment 27．A．followed B．broke C．established D．fixed 28．A．ignored B．demanded C．guaranteed D．transformed 29．A．succeeded B．recovered C．quitted D．revenged 30．A．restoration B．change C．loss D．protection 31．A．closely B．efficiently C．independently D．diligently 32．A．stability B．independence C．decline D．security 33．A．maintained B．developed C．returned D．collapsed 34．A．protest against B．give up C．account for D．engage in 35．A．emphases B．limits C．evidences D．gains四、阅读理解The person who set the course of my life was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost his mother and was coming to live with the father he did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me to freedom.I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during “club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.A tough woman with salt-and-pepper hair and determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper. Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-tom homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a journalist by profession.Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately bullied and charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldn’t have become a reporter. She was the catalyst that sent me into journalism and indirectly caused all the good things that came after.36．Which of the following caused the author to think of his homeland differently?A．Stepping on the American soil for the first time.B．Her mother’s miserable deathC．Being exposed to Greek literary works.D．Following the prettiest girl in his class. 37．It can be inferred from Paragraph Four that ________.A．Miss Hurd’s contribution was recognized across the nation.B．Students from troubled homes preferred Miss Hurd’s teaching styleC．The students Miss Hurd taught were all finally firedD．Miss Hurd employed a unique way to handle these students38．The passage is mainly concerned with ________.A．how the author became a journalist B．the importance of inspiration in one’s life C．the teacher who shaped the author’s life D．factors contributing to a successful careerWhen you first arrive in Oxford，it may take a little while for you to find your way around. The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800 years. Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike ( most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around), setting up a bank account , getting their computer and mobile phone working , finding their department, getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.One of the major events you will experience shortly after "coming up" to Oxford is matriculation. Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year. Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you , as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you . The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system, University services, information on living in Britain and culture differences, as well as addressing practical issues such as employment, immigration and visas, health and safety. You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow student.Another good thing to experience early on is college dining. Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners, which consist of three or four courses and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant. On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor. In this way you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many often historical college grounds and dining halls.Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like bywatching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100 Faces. 39．Which of the following is not the first thing for a newcomer to Oxford to do_______？A．to find a best place to socializeB．to set up a bank accountC．to go to the Sheldonian TheatreD．to get mobile phone working40．When do students feel they are truly admitted to Oxford University______？A．They arrived in Oxford and settled down on campus．B．They received the offer from the admission office．C．They met the staff and took some required courses．D．They experienced the matriculation in the university．41．Why is an orientation important for international students？A．It is a good chance to ask the staff for help．B．It offers practical information about living and studying．C．It helps get students' computers hooked to the Internet．D．It can help deal with the problem of culture differences．42．"Return the favor"in the passage probably means___．A．inviting you for dinnerB．visiting your historic college in returnC．sharing favorite videosD．providing you with some good advice．In the college-admissions wars, we parents are the true fighters. We’re pushing our kids to get good grades, take SAT preparatory courses and build resumes to they can get into the college of our first choice. I’ve twice been to the wars, and as I survey the battlefield, something different is happening. We see our kids’ college background as a prize demonstrating how well we’ve raised them. But we can’t acknowledge that our obsession is more about us than them. So we’ve come up with various justifications that turn out to be half-truths, prejudices or myths. It actually doesn’t matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.We have a full-blown prestige panic; we worry that there won’t be enough prizes to goaround. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever. Underlying the hysteria (歇斯底里) is the belief that scarce elite degrees must be highly valuable. Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts. All that is plausible--and mostly wrong. We haven’t found any convincing evidence that selectivity or prestige matters. Selective schools don’t systematically employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools, On two measures- professors’ feedback and the number of essay exams selective schools do slightly worse.By some studies, selective schools do enhance their graduates’ lifetime earnings. The gain is considered at 2-4% for every 100-point increase in a school’s average SAT scores. But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke (偶然). A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere. They earned just as much as graduates from higher-status schools.Kids count more than their colleges. Getting into Yale may signify intelligence, talent and ambition. But it’s not the only indicator and its significance is declining. The reason: so many similar people go elsewhere. Getting into college is not life’s only competition. In the next competition--the job market and graduate school-the results may change. Old-boy networks are breaking down. Princeton economist Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph.D．program. High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in; degrees of prestigious universities didn’t.So, parents, lighten up. The stakes (风险) have been vastly exaggerated. Up to a point, we can rationalize (合理化) our pushiness. America is a competitive society; our kids need to adjust to that. But too much pushiness can be destructive. The very ambition we impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. One study found that, other things being equal, graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction. They may have been so conditioned to being on top that anything less disappoints. 43．Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?A．They have the final say in which university their children are to attend.B．They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.C．They care more about which college their children go to than the children themselves.D．They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make an application. 44．What does the author mean by “kids count more than their colleges” Line 1, para.4?A．Continuing education is more important to a person’s success.B．Kids’ actual abilities are more important than their college background.C．A person’s happiness should be valued more than their education.D．What kids learn at college cannot keep up with job market requirements.45．What does Krueger’s study tell us?A．Getting into Ph.D．programs may be more competitive than getting into college.B．Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.C．Connections built in prestigious universities may be sustained long after graduation.D．Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs. 46．According to the passage, one possible result of pushing children into elite universities is that ________.A．they experience more job dissatisfaction after graduationB．they earn less than their peers from other institutionsC．they turn out to be less competitive in the job marketD．they overemphasize their qualifications in job applicationDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.In business, there is a speed difference: It’s the difference between how important firm leaders say speed is to their competitive strategy and how fast the company actually moves. The difference is important regardless of industry and company size. 47In our study of 343 businesses, the companies that choose to go, go, go to try to gain an edge ended up with lower sales and operating incomes than those that paused at key moments to make sure they were on the right track. What’s more, the firms that “slowed down to speed up “improved their top and bottom lines, averaging 40% higher sales and 52% higher operating incomes over a three-year period.48 They thought differently about what “slower” and “faster” mean. Firms sometimes fail to understand the difference between operation speed (moving quickly )and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value ).Simply increasing the speed of production, for example ,may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference .But that oftenleads to reduced value over time, in the form of lower-quality products and services.In our study, higher-performing companies with strategic speed always made changes when necessary. They became more open to ideas and discussion. 49 And they allowed time to look back and learn. By contrast, performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time, paid too much attention to improving efficiency, stuck to tested methods, didn’t develop team spirit among their employees, and had little time thinking about changes.Strategic speed serves as a kind of leadership. 50 That kind of strategy must come from the top.A．How did they disobey the laws of business physics, taking more time than competitors yet performing better?B．Teams that regularly take time to get things right, rather than plough ahead full bore, are more successful in meeting their business goals.C．More haste, less speed, which in the study proves wrong.D．Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the speed.E．They valued efficiency rather than consideration.F．They encouraged new ways of thinking.五、书面表达51．Directions: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.It is found that American students spend less than 15% of their time in school. While there’s no doubt that school is important, a number of recent studies remind us that parents are even more so. A study published earlier this month by researchers at North Carolina State University, for example, finds that parental involvement-checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school activities at home — has a more powerful influence on students’ academic performance than anything about the school the students attend.So parents matter. But it is also revealed in researches that parents, of all backgrounds, don’t need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give theman advantage. What they need to do with their children is much simpler: talk.But not just any talk. Recent research has indicated exactly what kinds of talk at home encourage children’s success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health found that two-way adult-child conversations were six times as potent in promoting language development as the ones in which the adult did all the talking.Engaging in this back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter.The content of parents’ conversations with kids matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge. While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement remain strong. Research finds that parents play an important role in what is called “academic socialization” — setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals. Engaging in these sorts of conversations has a greater impact on educational accomplishment._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _六、翻译52．意识到犯了大错，我马上向在场所有的人表达了诚挚的歉意。

Awards are distributed through the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP). Winners are selected in the Spring Semester, and recognized at the Provost’s academic awards ceremony during Parents’ Weekend in October.1．Who does the Harold C．Case scholarship recognize?A．Top ranked women in senior years.B．Freshmen who explore the unknown.C．Juniors who are academically successful.D．Undergraduates active in extracurricular activities.2．Which is specifically for female students studying engineering?A．Provost’s scholars award.B．Harold C．Case scholarshipC．Clare Boothe Luce scholar awards.D．Dean Elsbeth Melville scholarship 3．What can Provost’s scholars award winners do with the funding?A．Buy research facilities.B．Pay tuition fees.C．Attend business conferences.D．Go on an adventure travelIn times of distress, a friend would always suggest going for a walk. “Are you overwhelmed by your work? Take a talk around the neighborhood.” Comments like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water. I did not understand how these things were going to help.Three years ago, I hit a low point. Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror, I knew I was at my breaking point. So, I took the advice I fought so hard to ignore. I went for a walk—with the hope that it would somehow change my life.I embraced the fresh air everyone seemed to be talking about. But it did nothing. I was just as sad as I was before. I went on a walk every single day for more than a month. Some days I could hardly make it outside, but I managed to push through. I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document (记录) myself trying to make an effort.One day, the unthinkable happened. I found myself smiling. I realized I had patiently waited all morning to go on this walk. What I once hated had become the best part of my day.I found myself longing to be outside. I never had a destination in mind. I just danced along the trails, stopped to look at the beautiful blue skies and listened to music.I’m glad I took pictures because there was a noticeable difference in my face. I slowlystarted to look less tired and defeated. I don’t know why I refused to go on that walk for so long. I guess I didn’t want to believe that something small and seemingly meaningless could actually make an impact on my physical and mental well-being.If you’re having a bad day, a bad month, a bad year or even a bad life, you should try going for a walk. Sometimes, all we need to do is try.4．How did the author use to feel when people suggested she go for a walk?A．Pleased.B．Annoyed.C．Interested.D．Surprised. 5．Why did the author decide to go for a walk three years ago?A．Her friend encouraged her.B．She wanted to challenge herself.C．Her hopelessness drove her to try.D．She was eager to get close to nature.6．What happened after the author started to go for a walk?A．She felt cheered up after the first week.B．She always set off with a destination in mind.C．She stopped for a while due to lack of progress.D．She was inspired by the pictures she took of herself.7．What does the author advise us to do?A．Care about our mental well-being.B．Go for a walk when feeling down.C．Stay positive when bad things happen.D．Take other people’s suggestionsseriously.PFAS are found in nonstick pans, water-proof fabrics and food packaging. They’re called forever chemicals because of their ability to stick around and not break down. Now, using a bit of heat and two relatively common compounds, researchers have degraded (降解) the chemical in the lab.While some scientists have found relatively simple ways of breaking down select PFAS, most degradation methods require harsh processes using intense pressure — in some cases over 22 mega-pascals — or extremely high temperatures — sometimes upwards of 1,000℃ — to break the chemical bonds.William Dichtel, from Northwestern University in Evanston, and his team experimented with two substances found in nearly every chemistry lab; sodium hydroxide (氢氧化钠), alsoknown as lye, and a solvent (溶剂) called DMSO. The team worked specifically on a group of forever chemicals which contain a large percentage of PFAS.When the team combined chemicals with the lye and DMSO at 120℃ and with no extra pressure needed, the carbolic acid (羧酸) fell off the chemicals and became carbon dioxide. “What happened next was unexpected, ” Dichtel said. The loss of the acid helped degrade the chemicals into fluoride ions (氟离子) and smaller carbon-containing products, leaving behind no harmful by-products.“It’s a neat method; it’s different from others that have been tried,” says Chris Sales, an environmental engineer at Drexel University in Philadelphia who was not involved in the study. “The biggest question is how this could be adapted and scaled up. Understanding this mechanism is just one step in undoing forever chemicals,” Sales said.This process wouldn’t work to deal with PFAS in the environment, because it requires a concentrated amount of the chemicals, but it could one day be used in wastewater treatment plants, where the pollutants could be filtered out of the water, concentrated and then broken down.8．What can we learn about the previous ways to break down PFAS?A．They’re eco-friendly.B．They’ve been widely used.C．They’re difficult to operate.D．They’re regarded as useless.9．What did the team do in their experiment?A．They experimented with different solvents.B．They tried two very common substances.C．They tested every group of forever chemicals,D．They exposed chemicals to extreme temperatures.10．What made the researchers most surprised in their experiment?A．Environmentally-friendly reactions occurred.B．The carboxylic acid became carbon dioxide.C．No extra pressure was needed for the trial.D．The lye and DMSO could work at 120℃,11．What can we infer from Chris Sales’ words?A．It is difficult to deal with PFAS in the environment.B．This mechanism will soon be used in the environment.C．The method will be applied to different kinds of chemicals.D．More research is needed before the method is widely used.In our information-driven society, shaping our worldview through the media is similar to forming an opinion about someone solely based on a picture of their foot. While the media might not deliberately deceive us, it often fails to provide a comprehensive view of reality.Consequently, the question arises: Where, then, shall we get our information from if not from the media? Who can we trust? How about experts-people who devote their working lives to understanding their chosen slice of the world? However, even experts can fall prey to the allure of oversimplification, leading to the “single perspective instinct” that hampers (阻碍) our ability to grasp the intricacies (错综复杂) of the world.Simple ideas can be appealing because they offer a sense of understanding and certainty. And it is easy to take off down a slippery slope, from one attention-grabbing simple idea to a feeling that this idea beautifully explains, or is the beautiful solution for, lots of other things. The world becomes simple that way.Yet, when we embrace a singular cause or solution for all problems, we risk oversimplifying complex issues. For instance, championing the concept of equality may lead us to view all problems through the lens of inequality and see resource distribution as the sole panacea. However, such rigidity prevents us from seeing the multidimensional nature of challenges and hinders true comprehension of reality. This “single perspective instinct” ultimately clouds our judgment and restricts our capacity to tackle complex issues effectively. Being always in favor of or always against any particular idea makes you blind to information that doesn’t fit your perspective. This is usually a bad approach if you would like to understand reality.Instead, constantly test your favorite ideas for weaknesses. Be humble about the extent of your expertise. Be curious about new information that doesn’t fit, and information from other fields. And rather than talking only to people who agree with you, or collecting examples that fit your ideas, consult people who contradict you, disagree with you, and put forward different ideas as a great resource for understanding the world. If this means you don’t have time to form so may opinions, so what?Wouldn’t you rather have few opinions that are right than many that are wrong? 12．What does the underlined word “allure” in Para.2 probably mean?A．Temptation.B．Tradition.C．Convenience.D．Consequence.13．Why are simple ideas appealing according to the passage?A．They meet people’s demand for high efficiency.B．They generate a sense of complete understanding.C．They are raised and supported by multiple experts.D．They reflect the opinions of like-minded individuals.14．What will the author probably agree with?A．Simplifying matters releases energy for human brains.B．Constant tests on our ideas help make up for our weakness.C．A well-founded opinion counts more than many shallow ones.D．People who disagree with us often have comprehensive views.15．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Embracing Disagreement: Refusing OvercomplexityB．Simplifying Information: Enhancing ComprehensionC．Understanding Differences: Establishing RelationshipsD．Navigating Complexity: Challenging Oversimplification二、七选五“Beauty is only skin deep” it is said. This means that a person’s appearance is not as important as their character. Yet it is strange why people and especially women are willing toonly be one, and it is that beauty has its advantages.Attractive people are more popular generally. Beauty draws a positive response from the people around. This is obvious with children. For example, based on observation, there is a tendency for adults to treat good-looking children better. This favorable treatment continues into adulthood, as attractive people are more likely to be chosen for leadership positions and given more opportunities. 17Another important benefit that good-looking people enjoy is that they find a husband or wife more easily. 18 This initial attraction may then develop into romantic feelings and a serious relationship if the couple find that they are compatible (和睦相处的) with each other.On the other hand, beauty has a number of disadvantages as well. Firstly, a good-lookingperson tends to attract unwanted attention from all kinds of people. The admirer may have bad intentions and cause problems for the target. 19 It is thought that beauty and brains do not go together. Thus, attractive people may not gain respect even when they deserve it because of this prejudice against them.While every individual should take care of their outward appearance and look their best, they should not neglect (忽视) their inner beauty or character. 20 Also, they should not forget physical beauty is indeed, only skin deep and will not last.A．Life is not always easy for beautiful people.B．The skincare industry is a multi-billion dollar business.C．It turns out being conventionally beautiful has its benefits.D．It is a fact that people are first attracted to outward appearance.E．They should not place such importance on beauty that they become proud.F．Being well-treated gives attractive people more confidence and they perform better.G．Another problem faced by good-looking people is that they may not be taken seriously.三、完形填空Several years ago, a neighbor kid kicked a football and broke a basement window of my31 , this isn’t just about my window. Many of us live with broken windows of one type or another. They are things that seriously affect our 32 of life. If you recognize your broken window, don’t 33 to mend it.

Usually we suffer more in 35 than in reality.21．A．tore B．made C．boarded D．packed 22．A．lost B．stuck C．buried D．mixed 23．A．brain-burning B．labor-consuming C．energy-wasting D．risk-taking 24．A．in a mess B．beyond control C．at hand D．out of reach 25．A．went against B．relied on C．ate at D．appealed to 26．A．difficulty B．confidence C．confusion D．harm 27．A．shameful B．impossible C．pointless D．unfair 28．A．blew B．turned C．passed D．spread 29．A．broke B．fell C．moved D．missed 30．A．addressed B．ignored C．delayed D．considered 31．A．Luckily B．Consequently C．Unexpectedly D．Actually 32．A．quality B．pace C．way D．meaning 33．A．attempt B．guarantee C．hesitate D．pretend 34．A．easier B．tougher C．rarer D．worse 35．A．practice B．memory C．principle D．imagination四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

河南省周口市项城市2023-2024学年高三上学期1月月考英语试题

河南省周口市项城市2023-2024学年高三上学期1月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Whether you’ re a fearless adventurer seeking a scenic climb or a beginner outdoorsman eager to be close to nature, these four camping destinations will change your life.Laugavegur, IcelandBefore snow falls upon the changeable rhyolite (流纹岩) mountains, book a cottage or a tent in the camp city as wild camping is not permitted here. Professionals advise hiking from north to south, which takes you across lava fields, wildflower-spotted grasslands, and to the twin glaciers (冰川) Eyjafjallaj kull and Mydralsj kull. Along the way, the mountains covered with various colors will appeal to you.High Atlas Mountains, MoroccoMorocco’s most typical range is a bucket-list camping destination for daring travelers. Pass through remote Berber villages and walk a long way from hot desert to snow-capped peaks. You can follow ancient animal paths, though guides in this area are highly suggested. Many will employ the use of a camel to help with the load.Tierra del Fuego, ChileTierra del Fuego is an explorer’s dream. Take a cross-border journey from Argentina to Chile through Radman and set up camp along one of the glacial lakes Blanco or Ofhidro. Animals like beavers are common in this area, and so are condors (秃鹰). Bed down in the grasslands beneath Jebel M’ goun, an extremely quiet peak.Main Range, Kosciuszko National Park, AustraliaWhether you fill your days with passing over the country’ s highest mountains, watching snowfalls or fishing in the glacial lakes, make sure to spend an evening appreciating the starry sky, which is certain to inspire awe (敬畏) in anyone witnessing this sight.1．What is necessary to camp in Laugavegur according to the text?A．Protection for grasslands.B．Permission for campsites.C．Reservation for accommodation.D．Recommendation from professionals. 2．Who may be most attracted by both High Atlas Mountains and Tierra del Fuego?C．Wildlife researchers.D．Adventure enthusiasts.3．What is highly recommended in Kosciuszko National Park?A．Catching fish.B．Admiring stars.C．Climbing mountains.D．Appreciating glaciers.To reach a sustainable food system, “integrity has to run through the whole system, especially with the farmers,” say Jan and Steve Petersen, Niman Ranch farmers. “We have to learn to care for our shared resources, like soil, water, air, and ecosystems.”Jan and Steve created a family of sustainability advocates. To them, sustainable farming means protecting soil, water, and ecosystems for future generations. The Petersen family always farmed crops sustainably and raised their pigs naturally, using mostly organic practices. Their son Ted continues to work on the farm part-time, while their oldest son Luke works with farmers in California to encourage sustainable farming practices as a conservation biologist who received a Niman Ranch Next Generation Scholarship Award in 2008 to help him continue his farming practices. “He doesn’t hesitate to feed his dad ideas on new practices and technologies,” says Jan.The Petersens joined Niman Ranch in 2003 for the support it provided for farmers raising pigs naturally after the pig market crashed in 1998. “We suddenly had a sense of belonging and support, becoming part of a whole network of farmers who shared similar values,” explain Jan and Steve. “This matched our personal passion for community revitalization (复兴) and the promotion of responsible land use practices.”In their community, the Petersens have a great passion for responsible land use and its benefits for the food system. They realized early on how farmland preservation is connected to all sorts of land use issues, so they got involved on many levels. Steve chairs the local planning committee. And Jan not only started the community’s farmers’ market, but also serves on the county Brownfield Redevelopment Authority, encouraging businesses to redevelop ignored properties. Together, the Petersens also brought historic property in their community back to life.“We feel we are caretakers of not just the land on this fifth generation farm, but also the historic house and barns, around 1871, here on the Petersen Farm. We always hope the wildlife appreciates our commitment to avoiding farming the whole place into the ground,”4．How did the Petersen family advocate sustainable farming?A．By engaging neighbors in part-time laboring.B．By cooperating with conservation professionals.C．By encouraging practices on organic farming.D．By awarding biologists for ecological conservation.5．Why did the Petersens join Niman Ranch in 2003?A．It applied innovation to farming.B．It supplied assistance to farmers in need.C．It introduced them to bigger markets.D．It offered convenience to communities in trouble.6．What did the Petersens do to make lands used properly?A．They assumed leading roles.B．They advocated land expansion.C．They modernized historic properties.D．They founded various organizations. 7．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．A Family’s Efforts to Protect Land B．The Benefits of Sustainable System C．The Protection of Shared Resources D．The Progress in Organic FarmingProcrastination (拖延症) is the act of putting off or delaying an action to a later time. I find one of the most maddeningly illogical causes of procrastination is uncertainty about where to start when I have multiple tasks which all need to be done.What I want to stress is that I don’t think that procrastination, at least among high achievers like you, is a product of laziness. Among high achieving people, procrastination can be strongly motivated by perfectionism. Because you have high standards for yourself, you cannot do anything unless it’s perfect.So, what can someone like you, Danny, do? Here are the things I would recommend you start doing immediately.Understand that punishing yourself with negative messages will not help you but only discourage you. You need to accept that you are a well-meaning and talented person who has extremely normal psychological problems and deserves the care from yourself and from others that will help you succeed. Forgive yourself.If you’re anything like me, you read any tales of successful people with heightenedfailures on their way to success. You are younger than you feel and beyond your short-term tasks which feel at present like your entire career, there are a number of roads that will be open to you in the future. With a wide imagination and firm determination, you will have potentially a huge number of paths to happiness available to you in the future.Finally, and most importantly, understand that your life is already happening, since you only have a limited number of years in life. Do not waste them thinking your happiness is some time off in the future. Resolve to live your life in the well-rounded happy ways that you want today. Enjoying life and doing what you find most fulfilling is not a reward scheduled for a decade from now. It is something for your whole life, starting day one.8．What does the author think about procrastination?A．It contributes to stress.B．It results from laziness.C．It originates from uncertainty.D．It leads to perfectionism.9．Why does the author mention “successful people” in paragraph 5?A．To raise an issue to figure out.B．To suggest a career to work on.C．To present role models to learn from.D．To advise an angle to think from. 10．What does the author suggest at last?A．Living in the moment.B．Learning from new resolutions.C．Thinking about the future.D．Hoping for happiness all the time. 11．Where is the text probably taken from?A．A research paper.B．A personal letter.C．A health brochure.D．A psychology textbook.Microfossils (微化石) from Western Australia may capture a jump in the complexity of life that corresponds with the rise of oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, according to an international team of scientists.The findings, published in the journal Geobiology, provide a rare window into the Great Oxidation Event, a time roughly 2.4 billion years ago when the oxygen concentration increased on Earth, fundamentally changing the planet’s surface. The event is thought to have generated a mass extinction and opened the door for more complex life, but little direct evidence had existed in the fossil record before the discovery of the new microfossils, the scientists said.(藻类) than organisms like bacteria that existed prior to the Great Oxidation Event. Algae, along with all other plants and animals, are eukaryotes (真核生物). The scientists also analyzed the chemical makeup and carbon isotopic (同位素) composition of the microfossils and determined the carbon was created by living organisms, confirming that the structures were indeed biologic fossils. They also uncovered insights into the habitat and reproduction of the microorganisms.“They have a remarkable similarity and so we could say these fossils were relatively complex,” Barlow said. “There is nothing like them in the fossil record, and yet, they have quite striking similarities to modern algae.”Although more work is required to determine if the microfossils were left behind by eukaryotic organisms, the possibility would have significant implications for both how long it took complex life to form on early Earth—the earliest, uncontroversial evidence of life is 3.5 billion years old—and what the search for life elsewhere in the solar system may reveal, the scientists said.12．Why is the discovery of microfossils from Western Australia significant?A．It produces a new theory.B．It involves a popular field.C．It proves a certain thought.D．It gets international attention. 13．Which aspect of the research does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．Its strengths.B．Its approaches.C．Its applications.D．Its assumptions.14．What does the underlined “They” in paragraph 4 refer to?A．Microfossils and modern algae.B．Microfossils and ancient bacteria.C．Microfossils and biological fossils.D．Microfossils and the habitat oforganisms.15．What is the scientists’ attitude to the findings in the text?A．Unclear.B．Opposed.C．Doubtful.D．Favorable.Although there are similarities between London and some cities of America, don’t expect it to be the same. If you are an American in London looking for advice to help you adjust to the new environment, you are reading the right article.American state you live(d)in, just like other big cities, the cost of living in London is one of the highest. It is one of the top complaints of people who just moved to London from the US, mostly if they came from smaller states.18 Just like when in Rome, do as the Romans do, when you go to London, behave like the Londoners. For instance, in London, people don’t ask anyone to do something directly. Let’s say you left your coat on the chair after dinner. A Londoner will say your coat is on the chair instead of telling you to pick it up. When you hear things like this, don’t be surprised, but live your life like them. 19The last one is a seemingly odd one: learn to understand English. Don’t be surprised that you will not understand some of the things the Englishmen are saying. It is not because you don’t understand the language. The reason is their accents. 20 To avoid being lost when speaking with most Londoners, prepare yourself to relearn the English you already know.A．This way, you will not be left out.B．Don’t forget where you come from.C．That’s why we should avoid saying things in a direct manner.D．The names we call some common things also differ from theirs.E．However, for an American, living in this city comes with a price.F．Preparing your pocket to absorb the shock you will receive is not enough.G．It’s really something that may make you fall out of love with this magical city.二、完形填空When 19-year-old Emily Bhatnagar from Maryland, USA, found her father had stage four thyroid (甲状腺) cancer, her response was a little different than you might expect. To“It was absolutely heartbreaking to watch my dad 27 cancer and see him lose a little bit of himself each day.

It wasn't easy for Zoë‟s hard-working single mother to make ends meet. They moved in and out of homeless shelters．Everything changed for Zoëin grade nine. At that time, she heard about a sewing class at her school. She signed up and couldn't wait to turn her designs into clothes. The color of her first dress she made was white-black strips. Soon the clothes she wore were all made by her. Other girls at school loved her designs too. They asked her if they could buy dresses from her. Zoë sold her first dress for $13．Unfortunately, it cost her $25 to make the dress. “I had the creativity in designs," says Zoë. “But I really had no idea about business．"Zoë kept selling the clothes she designed. Her business was booming, and even the girls who had ever teased her became her customers. In the eleventh grade, Zoë took a business class. She learned how to price her clothes so that she could be sure to make a fair profit．Her business teacher suggested she take part in a contest for teenaged entrepreneurs （企业家）The contest was for teens from all over the United States. Zoësent in her business plan, which explained how she planned to make her company grow. She won the second prize in the end. Zoë‟s success became a news item. Supermodel Tyra Banks heard about it and she invited Zoë to take part in her TV show. “Being recognized I felt r eally unreal,”says Zoë. Zoë has advice for teens who want to start their own business. “If you really work hard on it, you will be able to make it happen," she says. “If I can do it, anyone can．”24．We can learn that ________ when she was in grade nine．A．Zoë had no interest in designing clothes B．Zoë seldom wore her self-made clothesC．Zoë didn‟t know how to make money D．Zoë attended a business course25．After winning the contest, Zoë ______.A. considered it a reward B．expected to be knownC．was proud of her own gift D．could hardly believe it26．Zoë advised the teens ______ .A．to make efforts to achieve their dreams B．to design and make their own clothesC．to try every means to become famous D．to do whatever they would like to 27．What is the main idea of the passage?A．How Zoë learned to design clothes．B．A poor girl achieved success in business．C．How Zoë got a prize in a contest．D．A poor girl was invited to a TV show．C“You‟ll catch cold“, my grandmother used to warn me, if I dared leave the house on a winter‟s day without drying my hair. For centuries there has been an idea that you‟ll develop a cold if exposed to low temperatures, particularly if you get wet as well．But, as any doctor will tell you, the common cold is caused by a virus. So if I have just washed myhair, but I really need to go out urgently, should I worry about the warning?Ron Eccles, director of the Common Cold Centre, did some experiments. Half the volunteers sat with their feet in cold water for twenty minutes, while the other half kept their socks and shoes on, but sat with their feet in an empty bowl for the same length of time. There was no difference in the cold symptoms reported between the two groups in the first few days, but four to five days later, twice as many people in the cold-water group said they had developed a cold．One theory is that when your body gets chilled （冷），the blood vessels in the nose and throat constrict （收缩）．These same vessels deliver infection - fighting white blood cells, so if fewer white blood cells reach the nose and throat, your defenses against a cold virus are lowered for a short time.the white blood cells continue to fight the virus. But by then it could be too late and the virus might have had enough time to reproduce and set off the symptoms．So the chilling hasn‟t given us the cold, but might have activated a virus already present. This is still controversial, and Eccles' study only demonstrated that more chilled people said they had cold symptoms. No medical tests were done to confirm that they were definitely infected with the virus．28．By referring to her grandmother' s warning, the writer wants to ________.A. introduce the topic of the passageB. tell about her experience in childhoodC. show her grandmother‟s love for herD. prove her grandmot her‟s wisdom 29．Research done by Ron Eccles seems to indicate that getting cold and damp ______ .A. can directly lead to cold symptomsB. can increase the number of white blood cellsC. may activate the existing cold virusD. can prevent white blood cells fighting virus30．What does the underlined word “dilate” in the fourth paragraph probably mean?A. Block．B. Enlarge．C．Freeze． D. Melt．31．As for the relation between low temperature and cold symptoms, we can conclude that_______．A. chilling can always cause cold symptomsB. cold symptoms are caused by virusC. the chilled people were infected by virusD. further scientific study is still neededDScientists have long had it in their mind to make a robot lizard (蜥蜴). They began with finding out why a lizard can hang on a wall. They noticed the lizard‟s toes were unique: They have suckers (吸盘), which enable it to hang on walls. They, therefore, made a robot with suckers on its hands and feet.The robot could hang on the wall but fell off when crawling. So, they went on researching. 6 years ago, scientists discovered that suckers only were not enough. It is the bristles (刚毛) on each foot that adds friction (摩擦) and static adsorption (静电吸附力) that makes a lizard move on the smooth walleasily without falling down.Then scientists made great efforts to fix thick bristles to the robot‟s hands and feet. However, the effect was not satisfactory. The robot still couldn‟t attach itself firmly to the wall.Scientists got puzzled: How on earth can the lizard crawl on an extremely smooth wall or even on a ceiling without dropping off?An accidental finding inspired them: One day a scientist happened to see an animal attack a lizard and bite off its tail. The lizard broke away from the an imal‟s teeth and threw itself on a wall to escape, only to fall off heavily on the ground. The scientist wondered: Is it the tail that plays an important role in its traveling on the wall? He caught some lizards for an experiment. The result proved his ass umption: A tailless lizard has no trouble walking on an ordinary wall but can‟t on a smooth one. A further study showed the lizard‟s tail can prevent it falling over backward and, what‟s more, that the tail acts as an additional leg while one of the lizard‟s legs leaves the wall, which is always the case while it is walking on the wall.Thus, Talbot, a super tailed robot, is born.32. What part(s) would be a must if scientists just wanted a robot which can hang on the wall?A. Suckers.B. Suckers and bristles.C. Suckers, bristles and a tail.D. Hands, feet, bristles and a tail.33. The bristles function as something ________.A. to protect the lizard‟s toes from injuryB. to produce friction and static adsorptionC. to prevent a lizard falling over backwardD. to help a lizard move about without falling34. The biggest importance of a lizard‟s tail lies in ________.A. helping support the bodyB. serving as another legC. sticking to the wallD. stopping slipping35. What does the underlined part in the fifth paragraph refer to?A. A lizard often falls over backward while it travels on the wall.B. A lizard often has three legs on the wall while walking on the wall.C. A lizard‟s tail will replace one of its legs while it moves on the wall.D. A lizard‟s tail often stops it fall over backward while moving on the wall第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。
