However, not Gitanjali Rao. The 15-year-old girl has been coming up with innovative solutions to worldwide problems since she was ten. It is, therefore, not surprising that the teenager has won the honor of “America's Top Young Scientist”.In the third grade, Rao was inspired to build a device after witnessing the shocking story unfold in Flint, Michigan, where cost-cutting measures led to the use of a polluted river as the city's primary water supply and incredibly high levels of lead made their way into people's drinking water.After two months' research, Rao designed a small and portable device that used sensors to instantly detect lead in water. Called Tethys, after the Greek Goddess(女神) of freshwater, it attaches to a cellphone and informs the residents via an app if their drinking water contains lead. The design earned her the 3M Young Scientist Challenge in 2017. She is currently working with scientists and medical professionals to test Tethys' potential and hopes the device will be ready for commercial use by 2022.Later, Rao took on another social issue-drug addiction. Her app, called Epione, which won the Health Pillar Prize at the TCS Ignite Innovation Student Challenge in May 2019, is designed to catch drug addiction in young adults before it's too late.More recently, the teenager has developed an app named Kindly, which usesartificial intelligence technology to detect possible signs of cyberbullying(网上欺凌). When users type in a word or phrase, Kindly is able to pick it up if it's bullying, and then it gives the option to edit it or send it the way it is. It gives them the chance to rethinkwhat they are saying so that they know what to do next time.All kinds of awesome, Gitanjali Rao has been selected from 5,000 equally impressive nominees(被提名人) for TIME Magazine's first-ever “Kid of the Year”.4. What gave Rao the idea of inventing the device Tethys?A. The incident of lead pollution.B. The issue with drug addiction.C. The shortage of water supplies.D. The high cost of purifying water.5.

Weigh their words before posting them online.7. Which of the following can best describe Gitanjali Rao as a young scientist?A. Ambitious and humble.B. Optimistic and adventurous.C.

Her mother, Sevala Habibovic, 46, died in2017 after a two year fight with breast cancer.“I thought the medical field wasn't for me. Then, my mom got sick and I had all the experience going in and out of the hospital, ” Edina toldGood MorningAmerica. “When my mom passed away, I thought, ‘I want to dothis.’”she said.Sanja Josipovic, who at the time worked as a home health nurse with Northwestern Medicine in Winfield,Illinois, cared for Sevala inside her home. They often chatted and shared the latest news with each other over six months of care.“She was most worried about Edina because she was young and hadn't finished school yet, ” Sanja said. “We are like sisters; we care about and trust each other. She was a powerful and strong minded woman. She wasn't scared to die; she was just worried about her kids and husband.”Edina said her mother lived for being with her family and taking care of people. “When Sanja was working, my mom would still try to make her something to eat, no matter how sick she was, ” Edina added. When Sevala's life was coming to an end, she asked Sanja to take her place at her youngest daughter's nursing school graduation. “That was the only thing she was going to miss. Edina's graduation, ” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.Due to COVID -19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony. Edina's manager at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital decided to host a pinning ceremony for her and have Sanja present the pin. “Sanja has fulfilled her promise, ” Edina said.Edina and Sanja are now caring for patients alongside one another as colleagues at Marianjoy.8.

How did Sanja fulfill her promise?A. By taking care of Edina and her familyB. By helping Edina enter her dream hospitalC. By attending a special ceremony for EdinaD. By managing to become Edina's colleagueDEver wondered if dogs can learn new words? Yes, say researchers as they have found that talented dogs may have the ability to grasp new words after hearing them only four times.While previous evidence seems to show that most dogs do not learn words, unless eventually very well trained, a few individuals have shown some extraordinary abilities, according to a study published in the journal Scientific Reports.“We wanted to know under which conditions the gifted dogs may learn novel words” said researcher xuekw Claudia Fugazza from theEötvösLorándUniversityinHungary. For the study, the team involved two gifted dogs, Whisky and Vicky Nina. The team exposed the dogs to the new words in two different conditions.In the exclusion-based task, presented with seven known toys and one new toy, the dogs were able to select the new toy when presented with a new name. Researchers say this proves that dogs can choose by exclusion when faced with a new word, they selected the only toy which did not have a known name.However, this was not the way they would learn the name of the toy. In fact, when they were presented with one more equally new name to test their ability to recognize the toy by its name, the dogs got totally confused and failed.The other condition, the social one, where the dogs played with their owners who pronounced the name of the toy while playing with the dog, proved to be the successful way to learn the name of the toy, even after hearing it only 4 times. “The rapid learning that we observed seems to equal children’s ability to learn many new words at a fast rate around the age of 18 months,” Fugazza says. “But we do not know whether the learning mechanisms(机制) behind this learning are the same for humans and dogs. ”To test whether most dogs would learn words this way, 20 other dogs were tested in the same condition, but none of them showed any evidence of learning the toy names, confirming that the abilityto learn words rapidly in the absence of formal training is very rare and is only present in a few gifted dogs.12. What was the purpose of the study published in Scientific Reports?A. To better train dogs’ ability to learn new words.B. To further confirm previous evidence about dogs.C. To prove extraordinary memory abilities of gifted dogs.D. To explore favorable conditions for gifted dogs’ new-word learning.13. How did the dogs react when exposed to two new names in the first condition?A. Slow to understand.B. Quick to learn.C. At a loss.D. In a panic.14. What was found about dogs’ new-word learning in the social condition?A. Learning through playing applied to most dogs.B. The social condition helped dogs learn new words.CDogs’ new-word learning turned out to be less effective.D. Dogs shared similar learning mechanisms with children.15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Gifted Dogs Can Learn New Words Rapidly.B. Dogs Identify Newly-named Toys by Exclusion.C. Dogs Can Acquire Vocabulary through Tons of Training.D. Gifted Dogs Have Similar Learning Abilities to Humans.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

told Dick Hoyt that there was no hope of his son being anything more than a "vegetable"． Yet Dick and his wife were determined to raise him at home．At age 13， Rick told his father he wanted to participate in a five﹣mile benefit run for the disabled． Dick was not a runner， but he agreed to push Rick through the race course in his wheelchair． That was when a surprising thing happened． During the run， Rick felt as though he wasn't disabled anymore ﹣he was simply one of the runners． This experience deeply affected Dick，and he committed to running an increasing number of events with his son so that Rick could have this feeling as often as possible．At first，other competitors often treated them as outsiders and even avoided them． But gradually， what began as a way for Rick Hoyt to experienceinclusion and equality broadened in its purpose． Running together became a way to send a message that， as Rick said， everybody should be included in everyday life． The pair's first Boston Marathon in 1981 finished in the top quarter of the field， and shortly thereafter， attitudes began to change． Many athletes would come up to them before the race to wish them luck．The 2013 Boston Marathon was the 31st time the Hoyts had run the race，and it was also their last race． Dick has run thousands of miles to be with and support his son． Their athletic pursuits have enriched Rick's life

insist on races？A． 31 years．B． 38 years．C． 40 years．D． 53 years．13．（8分）What's the deal with new words？ Where do they come from and how do they go from unknown to official？First，new words have to circulate in culture to make it into the dictionary．They have to be used and understood． Words have a much better chance of getting added to the dictionary if you see them in print or hear them in conversation． It's actually a full ﹣time job to search popular communication to figure out what new words are surfacing in our vernacular（方言）． Lexicographers get to decide which words make it into the dictionary， and they do so by reading widely across industries and disciplines． However， they also make decisions about which idioms make it in．Dictionaries can sometimes get over 1，000 new words per year． In 2019 the Merriam﹣Webster added over 600 in April and another 500+ in September． After lexicographers decide which words will be included， they write a new definition． Some existing words also gain additional meanings，and there are usually thousands of revisions． The dictionary is a constantly changing work﹣in﹣progress，just like the language it describes and defines． For instance， the word "peak" recently went from being just a sharp，pointed end to also being something at the height of popularity． Occasionally fake words actually end up in the dictionary by mistake．If you have a word that you think should be in the dictionary， you're welcome to get in touch with the lexicographers and suggest it． However， the word needs to be fairly popular．It has to have "widespread，frequent，meaningful usage"． For instance， OMG was added to the dictionary in 2009 after lexicographers had observed it in general use for about 15 years．New words spring from new technologies and disciplines， but they're very often invented by authors and writers who love language and play with it to create new meanings． One of the greatest creators was William Shakespeare who created over 1，700 new words often by adapting usage and using newcompounds． He's responsible for words like eyeball， excitement， fashionable，and lonely． "Hard﹣boiled" was invented by Mark Twain．（1）What kind of new words can be included in dictionaries？A． Words which have been widely used for long．B． Words which were created by famous writers．C． Words which have been spoken by some locals．D． Words which frequently appear in a private conversation．（2）What does the underlined word "Lexicographers" in the first paragraph probably mean？A． New word creators．B． Writers of a dictionary．C． Specialists in languages．D． Historians on ancient cultures．（3）What does the author think of a dictionary？A． Quite ambiguous．B． Error﹣free．C． Extremely rigid．D． Gradually developing．（4）What is the best title for the text？A． How the Dictionary Is RevisedB． How New Words Spread in CultureC． How Words Get Added to the DictionaryD． How New Words Are Invented by Famous Authors14．（8分）The Program for International Student Assessment （PISA）﹣a study of the test scores of 15﹣year﹣olds across 79 countries﹣showed that students in England performed significantly better in maths than 2015． PISA is conducted by the Organisation for Economic Co﹣operation and Development （OECD） every three years， and assesses the performance of 15﹣year﹣olds mainly in reading，maths and science．In England， the Government has prioritized（优先）climbing up the league tables in recent years． The latest tests were carried out last year， and showed that England was ranked 17 in the table for maths，up from 26 in 2015． Pupils in England also outperformed the OECD average in reading and science． On student well﹣being， 53 percent of 15﹣year﹣olds across the UK reported that they are satisfied with their lives﹣well below the 67 percent average across the OECD．Taking the UK as a whole， while there was only a statistically significant improvement in maths，the country still improved its position relative to other countries across all three of the subjects tested by PISA． In reading，the UK was 14th， up from 22nd three years ago． In science the UK was 14th，up from 15th， and in maths the UK rose to 18th from 27th．Across the rest of the league tables， East Asian countries like China and Singapore continued to be far superior．Today's results also showed that Estonia outperformed all the major European economies．However， Geoff Barton， the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders，cautioned against concluding too much from the findings． There are many educational and non﹣educational factors which affect performance and it is not easy to find how these have impacted on young people's attainment in a set of tests． What is worrying， however， is that this analysis shows that fewer students in the UK are satisfied with their lives than the OECD average． It is clear that many young people feel under great pressure in a society in which the risks often seem very high to them in terms of achieving their goals．（1）Which aspect of England is under the average of the OECD？A． Reading．B． Science．C． Well﹣being．D． Maths．（2）Which statement agrees with the UK' performance in PISA？A． The UK did worse than before．B． The UK progressed a little in PISA．C． The UK hasn't made any improvement．D． The UK pulled well ahead of the rest countries．（3）Which of the following countries always holds a leading position in PISA？A． China．B． Estonia．C． The UK．D． England．（4）What do the Geoff Barton's words mean in the last paragraph？A． The PISA results are unbelievable for educators．B． Students in the UK are in need of more practice．C． Education quality can't be fully reflected only by PISA．D． Young people take more risks of achieving their goals．第二节（5小题；每小题10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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）Just like essays，all speeches have three main sections：the introduction， the body， and the conclusion．（1） You need to write a speech in a way that keeps the attention of an audience and helps paint a mental image at the same time． Whatever type of speech you decide to write，find ways to make your words memorable．The structure of how to write your speech is just the start．（2）Start by paying attention to your audience and their interests． Write the words you'll speak with passion and enthusiasm，which you also want your listeners to share． When writing your attention﹣grabbing statements， make sure you are writing what will get their attention， not just yours．（3）Read famous speeches and look at the way they are constructed．Find things that stand out and figure out what makes it interesting．Oftentimes，speechwriters use rhetorical devices（修辞法）tomake certain points easy to remember．Remember to begin and end your speech with something that will gain and hold the attention of your audience． If you spend too much time getting into your speech， people will zone out or start checking their phones．（4）（5） When you give the speech， think about the tone you should use，and be sure to write the speech in the same flow that you'd use in conversations． A great way to check this flow is to practice reading it out loud． If you stumble（磕磕巴巴）while reading or it feels dull， look for ways to jazz up（使活泼）the words and improve the flow．A． You'll also need to write the speech skillfully．B． How you deliver the speech is also important．C． You can gain inspiration from others' speeches．D． Instead， if interested， they may stick with you until the end．E． So the essay form can offer a good foundation for the process．F． However， unlike essays， speeches are not to be read but to be heard．G． In other words， your speech should contain some color， drama， or humor．第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．16．（30分）One dark morning during my walk， I fell and had my arm broken． I received several（1）

2020届焦作市人民中学高三英语模拟试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABritain's brilliant bridges have aided trade and brought communities together and are always the most exciting part of the journey. These must-see bridges are now tourist attractions in their own right.Clifton Suspension Bridge, BristolDescribed byits legendary engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel as “my first love, my darling”, in was originally designed for horse-drawn traffic. Now, more than four million vehicles a year cross the 1,352ft-Jong toll (收费) bridge over the Avon Gorge. The £ l toll for every journey pays for its repair. The history of the bridge, dating back to 1864, is kept alive through a programme of tours, events and exhibitions.Infinity Bridge, Stockton-On-TeesA pedestrian and cycle footbridge across the River Tees, its working title was the North Shore Footbridge, before it was given its grander name when opened in 2009. It is particularly spectacular (壮观) at night. The arches of the bridge are also lit white and, on calm nights, their reflection in the water appears as an infinity symbol, thereby inspiring the name which was chosen by the public.Tower Bridge, LondonAn engineering wonder built from thousands of tons of Cornish granite, Portland stone and steel, it took construction workers eight years to complete. More than 120 years old, it's a popular tourist attraction, as well as a functional bridge. Visitors can take in the views over the capital and experience seeing London life through the Glass Floor.Iron Bridge, ShropshireOpened in 1781, this is the first arch bridge in the world to be made out of cast iron. Recognised as one of the great symbols of the industrial revolution, it transformed the cart of bridge building and was a crucial factor in the development of the iron trade in Shropshire.1.Which bridge has the longest history?A.Clifton Suspension Bridge.B.Infinity Bridge.C.Tower Bridge.D.Iron Bridge.2.What can we know about Infinity Bridge?A.People can just walk on it.B.The public give it two names.C.It's well worth visiting at night.D.It's arch is the biggest on the earth.3.What do Clifton Suspension Bridge and Tower Bridge have in common?A.They are both over 120 years old.B.Visitors should pay for passing them.C.They have the same original design.D.Visitors can have a good view of London on them.BWhen rescuers were called to rescue a “little owl”, they did not expect to find one that was too fat to fly. A concerned citizen first spotted the poor bird lying helplessly. Even Rufus Samkin, whose team then took the team in on Jan.3, believed the bird to be injured. There were no wounds to be found, however, causing experts to believe the female owl was simply too wet to fly.But it was only after a thorough drying-off and complete checkup that they noted the real issue. The rescuers weighed the owl and concluded that she was “simply extremely obese” and couldn’t take off. This additional weight left her unable to fly, though experts began to wonder how she got so fat in the first place. Because it’s rather unusual for wild birds to reach such a state, they decided to keep her a few weeks and monitor her.In the end, the rescuers assessed that it was simply a case of “natural obesity”. December 2019 was quite warm, which meant that there were many insects for the bird to feast upon. Indeed, the owl was discovered in a field that was “filled with field mice” due to the usual climate. “It’s been very mild here, and the owl is able to find foods easily,” Samkin explained. With the sudden food, “she ly ate much and got very fat. She had a lovely time, but went too far.”The researchers consequently put the owl on a “strict diet” so she could shrink to a more “natural weight”. She was even put on a bit of exercise and encouraged to fly around. In the end, the bird was sent flying gracefully off into the British countryside at a much healthier and happier weight. Hopefully, this owl won’t come upon another feast of field mice—unless she wants another few weeks at the fat camp.4. What did people think happened to the owl at first?A. She was hurt.B. She was trapped.C. She was hungry.D. She was wet.5. Why was the bird unable to fly?A. She needed a thorough checkup.B. She should be given a drying-off.C. She was completed overweight.D. She was simply extremely strong.6. What made the owl have enough foods?A. The especially warm weather.B. The reducing number of insects.C. The rich fields growing crops.D. The lovely time the bird enjoyed.7. How did the owl loseits weight?A. Going on a diet and exercising.B. Flying in the British countryside.C. Visiting that fat camp again.D. Enjoying her wonderful feast freely.CThere is nothing ordinary about this little boy's adorable experience with his musical heroes.5-year-old Taylor Hooper was just one of the 35,0000people who were attending the Foo Fighters concert in Belfast, Norther Ireland last week. Not only is the American rock group his favorite band, it was also his first ever concert.Taylor's mother, Nikki Hooper, says that she and her husband have always been huge fans of the Foo Fighters. In addition to traveling far and wide to see their shows, they even named their son after the drummer, Taylor Hawkins. So when the band played in their home city, they decided it was finally time for their son to see their beloved rock and rockers in concert.“He's been listening to them since he was born — mainly because his dad and I are super fans.” Mrs Hooper told BBC. “We called the event organizers and they said it would be no problem, but that we should know it would be a loud music event, so we gotTaylorsome special headphones. When we got there everyone was so welcoming to him.”Throughout the show, the audience continuously madeTaylorand his parents move closer to the stage. Furthermore, Mrs. Hooper helped her son stand out from the crowd by making him a sign that said he was a 5-year-old attending his first concert.When Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl finally saw the sign and read it aloud into the microphone, the crowd began chanting for them to bring the youngster onto the stage. That's exactly what he did. When the stage managers brought the boy to the stage, Grohl asked Taylor to show the crowd how to dance．The small boy then danced to the whole song, making him an “Inter net wonder”.Taylordidn't just walk away from the show with memories, either;the band also invited him backstage to give him a number of gifts, includinga pair of Taylor Hawkins's drumsticks.8. What is Foo Fighters in the passage?A. I's a music show.B. It's a music band.C. It's a pop song.D. It's a music fan.9.

How didTaylorfeel about his first ever concert?A. Worried.B. Scared.C. Sorry.D. Pleased.DA new study finds almost one third of the world’s population is overweight. Since 1980, obesity rates(肥胖率)in children and adults have doubled in 73 countries, making people more worried. And rates are increasing in many other countries. Obesity is increasing faster in children than adults in many nations, including Algeria, Turkey and Jordan, the report said. But the world's weight problem is growing in both rich and poor countries alike. Researchers say an increasing number of people are dying of related health problems in what they called a "disturbing global public health problem."Researchers studied health information from 1980 through 2015. They examined obesity rates, average weight gain in 195 countries. They found that obesity rates are three times greater among youth and young adults in countries like China, Brazil and India. Almost 108 million children and more than 600 million adults were found to be overweight. Egypt had the highest number of overweight adults in 2015. Vietnam had the least. In the same year, the United States had the highest number of overweight children, and Bangladesh had the least.Yet hunger remains a problem in many areas. The United Nations said that almost 800 million people, including 300 million children, go to bed hungry each night. Experts said poor diets and lack of physical activity are mainly to blame for the rising numbers of overweight people.Growing populations have led to rising obesity rates in poor countries. Often, poor people will eat processed(加工的) foods instead of choosing a diet rich in vegetables.The London-based Overseas Development Institute studied the price of food in five countries: Britain, Brazil, China, Mexico and South Korea. It found that the cost of processed foods like ice creamand hamburgers has fallen since 1990. But the cost of fresh fruits and vegetables has gone up.12. What do we know about obesity in the world?A. It is worryingB. It is given no attentionC. It has been successfully solvedD. It is more serious among old people13. Which country has the most overweight children in 2015?A. AmericaB. VietnamC. EgyptD. Bangladesh14. What is one of the reasons why people get overweight?A. HungerB. Poor dietC. Diets with vegetablesD. Eating too much fruit15. Which ofthe following can be the best title for the text?A. It’s Important to Have a Balanced DietB. How Can We Lose Weight and Keep Fit?C. Is It Necessary for Us to Eat Fresh Vegetables?D. Nearly One Third of People in the World Are Overweight.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
2020年焦作市第一中学高三英语三模试题及参考答案
2020年焦作市第一中学高三英语三模试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ATheBest Placeto Camp in Each StateWashington-SecondBeach, Olympic National ParkCampers put up their tents right on the sand of thisPacific Northwestbeach. Make a campfire, photograph sunset over the sea and try to absorb this charming spot with your entire being.Alaska-Bartlett Cove Campground, Glacier (冰川) Bay National ParkIn a state full of natural riches,Glacier Bayis a wonder, home to high peaks, whales, 700 miles of coastline, and light blue glaciers that flow directly into the sea. Set within temperate rainforest along Bartlett Cove, the park's only campground is impressively green and an easy jumping-off point for boat tours.Arizona-Havasupai Campground, Havasupai ReservationGetting to Havasupai is a challenge. Permits are snatched (剥夺) up almost instantly, and even if you get one it's a 10-mile hike from the border to reach this rural campground that hugs Havasu Creek. Make the journey, however, and you're rewarded with a series of great waterfalls and natural pools.Arkansas-BuffaloNationalRiverAmerica's first national river travels 135 miles through the Ozark Mountains, winding its way over rapids, forming peaceful pools and passing rocky cliffs topped by green forest. Plan a float trip and absorb the scenery ata leisurely pace, pausing for hikes to visitLostValley's caves or the 200-foot waterfalls.1.Which state may attract people preferring glaciers?A.Alaska.B.Washington.C.Arizona.D.Arkansas.2.What makesArizonaa popular camp choice among tourists?A.The blue glaciers and green rainforests.B.The winding national river and cliffs.C.The soaring peaks and long coastline.D.The beautiful waterfalls and pools.3.What can you do when camping inArkansas?A.Take a long trip on foot.B.Visit caves and waterfalls.C.Put up a well-equipped tent.D.Enjoy a view of sunset.BOne rainy afternoon, I was on a crosstown bus when ayoung woman jumped on. She had a child with her who must have been about 3 or 4 years old.The bus was full, bumpy, and it soon got noisy as her kid began crying because he couldn’t sit next to his mother. There were a couple of open seats, but they weren’t together. She wasflusteredand looked embarrassed.Then another woman, a little older, stood up and moved so that the mother and child could sit together. The mom smiled as a thank-you. And then three words came out of the older woman’s mouth that elevated the entire energy of that bus ride: “I’ve been there”.Simple, undramatic and honest. In that moment, it seemed to unite people. Why? Because almost all experiences are shared human experiences. We forget that, as we forge (前进) through life, focused onour own troubles and needs—which are actually less unique than we think. How can these three words create more connection in your life? Ask yourself: “Where am I holding back?One thing I know for sure is this: Healing others helps heal yourself. I noticed this recently with my friend, Tracy, who took a new friend who had suffered a miscarriage under her wing. Tracy had three of them before having her daughter two years ago. Our intellect needs a doctor to explain the medical side of things, yes. But our souls need human connection to help us along. No one can do that better than someone who has been exactly where you are.Can the essence of these three words help you make a small difference right now? It can be as simple as volunteering your seat, sharing some helpful advice or even lightening the mood with a joke when you notice that someone’s uncomfortable—because we’re all in this together.4. The underlined word “flustered” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. angryB. anxiousC.scaredD. upset5. What does the woman mean by saying “ I’ve been there”in the third paragraph？A. The woman was on the bus and saw what had happened to the boy.B. The woman got to her destination and was ready to get off the bus.C. The woman once had the similar experience with that mother.D. The woman took the exact seat that the boy was on just now.6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Everyone has his or her own unique problem that is difficult to solve.B. Doctors can help us get through when we have mental or physical problems.C. The author’s friend Tracy felt better after she was comforted by her new friend.D. One can indeed make a difference to those in need of help by doing simple things.7. The passage isintended to _______.A. show a harmonious world by telling some touching storiesB. praise those who are willing to help others in emergenciesC. appeal to readers to give timely help to those in needD. illustrate some ways of helping others in detailCTyphoons can be deadly — in 2013, Typhoon Haiyan, the strongest ever recorded, was responsible for 6,340 deaths—and cost billions in damages. Current forecast modelscan only predict these storms 10 days in advance, at most, and they cannot precisely predict how intense the storms will become.An international team of researchers has developed a model that analyzes nearly a quarter of Earth’s surface and atmosphere in order to better predict the conditions that birth typoons.“The target problem of this study is how to foretell the birth of typhoons,” said paper author Mingkui Li, associate professor in the Key Laboratory of Physical Oceanography in the Ocean University of China and the Pilot National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology (QNLM). “We specifically address three aspects: the beginning time, inner pressure and maximum wind speed.”The researchers also accounted for the influence of one variable(变量) on another, such as wind speed on sea surface temperature. This influence is well understood and accounted for in climate predictions and in weather forecasts, butithas not been fully applied in understanding how long-term climate affects day-to-day weather, according to Li. “We aimed to provide insights on the time scale that can be used to forecast typhoons in advance.”From their study, the researchers determined that a model with the ability to better understand the relationship between warm sea surface temperatures and weak wind movement— conditions that favor typhoon formation—could improve typhoon predictability.“Our goal is to develop a 10 to 30-day prediction system that will lead to seamless(无缝的) weather-climate predictions.” Shaoqing Zhang, paper author and professor in the Key Laboratory of Physical Oceanography, said.8. What is the problem with the present forecast system?A. It cannot foretell storms in advance.B. It is ineffective in accuracy and timeliness.C. It costs too much and causes great damages.D. It can hardly predict the intensity of typhoons.9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?A. The variable.B. The climateC. The temperature.D. The influence.10. What is the purpose of the study?A. To advance the prediction system.B. To figure out the three main aspects.C. To know how climate affects daily weather.D. To understand the influence of the variables.11. Where is this text most likely from?A. Awork diary.B. A travel guidebook.C. A science magazine.D. A fantasy fiction.DThere is no such thing as a “safe" level of drinking, with increased consumption of alcohol associated with poorer brain health, according to a new study.In an observational study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, researchers from the University of Oxford studied the relationship between the self-reported alcohol intake of some 25,000 people in the UK, and their brain scans. The researchers noted that drinking had an effect on the brain's gray matter-regions in the brain that make up "important bits where information is processed," according to leadauthor Anya Topiwala, a senior clinical researcher at Oxford.“The more people drank, the less the volume of their gray matter,“ Topiwala said via email. "Brain volume reduces with age and more severely with dementia(痴呆症).Smaller brain volume also predicts worse performance on memory testing,“ she explained. "While alcohol only made a small contribution to this(0. 8%), it was a greater contribution than other "modifiable" risk factors," she said, explaining that modifiable risk factors are “ ones you can do something about, in contrast to aging.”The team also investigated whether certain drinking patterns, beverage types and other health conditions made a difference to the impact of alcohol on brain health. They found that there was no "safe" level of drinking-meaning that consuming any amount of alcohol was worse than not drinking it. They also found no evidence that the type of drink— such as wine, spirits or beer—affected the harm done to the brain. However,certain characteristics, such as high blood pressure, obesity or binge-drinking, could put people at higher risk, researchers added.The risks of alcohol have long been known：Previous studies have found that there's no amount of liquor, wine or beer that is safe for your overall health. Alcohol was the leading risk factor for disease and premature death in men and women between the ages of 15 and 49 worldwide in 2016, accounting for nearly one in 10 deaths, according to a study published in The Lancet in 2018.“It has been known for decades that heavy drinking is bad for brain health," Sadie Boniface, head of research at the UK's Institute of Alcohol Studies, said via email. "We also shouldn't forget alcohol affects all parts of the body and there are multiple health risks. ”12. What is the function of gray matter?A. Control the mount of alcoholB. Process informationC. Scan the brainD. Predict the performance on memory13. Which is NOT true in the following statements according to the study?A. Drinking alcohol is worse than not drinking.B. With people getting older, brain volume reduces.C. Alcohol was the major risk factor for disease and premature death.D. The less people drink alcohol, the more the volume of their gray matter.14.

was no hope of his son being anything more than a "vegetable"．Yet Dick and his wife were determined to raise him at home．At age 13，Rick told his father he wanted to participate in a five﹣mile benefit run for the disabled．Dick was not a runner，but he agreed to push Rick through the race course in his wheelchair．That was when a surprising thing happened．During the run，Rick felt as though he wasn't disabled anymore﹣he was simply one of the runners．This experience deeply affected Dick，and he committed to running an increasing number of events with his son so that Rick could have this feeling as often as possible．At first，other competitors often treated them as outsiders and even avoided them．But gradually，what began as a way for Rick Hoyt to experience inclusion and equality broadened in its purpose．Running together became a way to send a message that，as Rick said，everybody should be included in everyday life．The pair's first Boston Marathon in 1981 finished in the top quarter of the field，and shortly thereafter，attitudes began to change．Many athletes would come up to them before the race to wish them luck．The 2013 Boston Marathon was the 31st time the Hoyts had run the race，and it was also their last race．Dick has run thousands of miles to be with and support his son．Their athleticpursuits have enriched Rick's life and had a practical benefit for Dick's life as well：After a heart attack，Dick's doctors told him he might have died 15 years earlier if he weren't in such good shape．（1）What inspired Dick to keep running？A．Rick felt he was a healthy person in running．B．Rick could raise money by taking part in running．C．Rick's wish was to be an excellent runner one day．D．Rick could rebuild his brain by running．（2）What message did the Hoyts send by running？A．Everyone is a part of the world．B．Whatever man has done，I may do．C．Where there is a will，there is a way．D．Good things come to those who wait．（3）What changed others' attitudes to the Hoyts？A．Their talent for running．B．Their purpose of running．C．Their donations to runners．D．Their achievement in running．（4）How long did the Hoyts insist on races？A．31 years．B．38 years．C．40 years．D．53 years．13．（8分）What's the deal with new words？Where do they come from and how do they go from unknown to official？First，new words have to circulate in culture to make it into the dictionary．They have to be used and understood．Words have a much better chance of getting added to the dictionary if you see them in print or hear them in conversation．It's actually a full﹣time job to search popular communication to figure out what new words are surfacing in our vernacular（方言）．Lexicographers get to decide which words make it intothe dictionary，and they do so by reading widely across industries and disciplines．However，they also make decisions about which idioms make it in．Dictionaries can sometimes get over 1，000 new words per year．In 2019 the Merriam ﹣Webster added over 600 in April and another 500+ in September．After lexicographers decide which words will be included，they write a new definition．Some existing words also gain additional meanings，and there are usually thousands of revisions．The dictionary is a constantly changing work﹣in﹣progress，just like the language it describes and defines．For instance，the word "peak" recently went from being just a sharp，pointed end to also being something at the height of popularity．Occasionally fake words actually end up in the dictionary by mistake．If you have a word that you think should be in the dictionary，you're welcome to get in touch with the lexicographers and suggest it．However，the word needs to be fairly popular．It has to have "widespread，frequent，meaningful usage"．For instance，OMG was added to the dictionary in 2009 after lexicographers had observed it in general use for about 15 years．New words spring from new technologies and disciplines，but they're very often invented by authors and writers who love language and play with it to create new meanings．One of the greatest creators was William Shakespeare who created over 1，700 new words often by adapting usage and using new compounds．He's responsible for words like eyeball，excitement，fashionable，and lonely．"Hard﹣boiled" was invented by Mark Twain．（1）What kind of new words can be included in dictionaries？A．Words which have been widely used for long．B．Words which were created by famous writers．C．Words which have been spoken by some locals．D．Words which frequently appear in a private conversation．（2）What does the underlined word "Lexicographers" in the first paragraph probably mean？A．New word creators．B．Writers of a dictionary．C．Specialists in languages．D．Historians on ancient cultures．（3）What does the author think of a dictionary？A．Quite ambiguous．B．Error﹣free．C．Extremely rigid．D．Gradually developing．（4）What is the best title for the text？A．How the Dictionary Is RevisedB．How New Words Spread in CultureC．How Words Get Added to the DictionaryD．How New Words Are Invented by Famous Authors14．（8分）The Program for International Student Assessment （PISA）﹣a study of the test scores of 15﹣year﹣olds across 79 countries﹣showed that students in England performed significantly better in maths than 2015．PISA is conducted by the Organisation for Economic Co﹣operation and Development （OECD）every three years，and assesses the performance of 15﹣year﹣olds mainly in reading，maths and science．In England，the Government has prioritized（优先）climbing up the league tables in recent years．The latest tests were carried out last year，and showed that England was ranked17 in the table for maths，up from 26 in 2015．Pupils in England also outperformed theOECD average in reading and science．On student well﹣being，53 percent of 15﹣year﹣olds across the UK reported that they are satisfied with their lives﹣well below the 67 percent average across the OECD．Taking the UK as a whole，while there was only a statistically significant improvement in maths，the country still improved its position relative to other countries across all three of the subjects tested by PISA．In reading，the UK was 14th，up from 22nd three years ago．In science the UK was 14th，up from 15th，and in maths the UK rose to 18th from 27th．Across the rest of the league tables，East Asian countries like China and Singapore continued to be far superior．Today's results also showed that Estonia outperformed all the major European economies．However，Geoff Barton，the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders，cautioned against concluding too much from the findings．There are many educational and non﹣educational factors which affect performance and it is not easy to find how these have impacted on young people's attainment in a set of tests．What is worrying，however，is that this analysis shows that fewer students in the UK are satisfied with their lives than the OECD average．It is clear that many young people feel under great pressure in a society in which the risks often seem very high to them in terms of achieving their goals．（1）Which aspect of England is under the average of the OECD？A．Reading．B．Science．C．Well﹣being．D．Maths．（2）Which statement agrees with the UK' performance in PISA？A．The UK did worse than before．B．The UK progressed a little in PISA．C．The UK hasn't made any improvement．D．The UK pulled well ahead of the rest countries．（3）Which of the following countries always holds a leading position in PISA？A．China．B．Estonia．C．The UK．D．England．（4）What do the Geoff Barton's words mean in the last paragraph？A．The PISA results are unbelievable for educators．B．Students in the UK are in need of more practice．C．Education quality can't be fully reflected only by PISA．D．Young people take more risks of achieving their goals．第二节（5小题；每小题10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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）Just like essays，all speeches have three main sections：the introduction，the body，and the conclusion．（1）You need to write a speech in a way that keeps the attention of an audience and helps paint a mental image at the same time．Whatever type of speech you decide to write，find ways to make your words memorable．The structure of how to write your speech is just the start．（2）Start by paying attention to your audience and their interests．Write the words you'll speak with passion and enthusiasm，which you also want your listeners to share．When writing your attention﹣grabbing statements，make sure you are writing what will get their attention，not just yours．（3）Read famous speeches and look at the way they are constructed．Find things that stand out and figure out what makes it interesting．Oftentimes，speechwriters use rhetorical devices（修辞法）to make certain points easy to remember．Remember to begin and end your speech with something that will gain and hold the attention of your audience．If you spend too much time getting into your speech，people will zone out or start checking their phones．（4）（5）When you give the speech，think about the tone you should use，and be sure to write the speech in the same flow that you'd use in conversations．A great way to check this flow is to practice reading it out loud．If you stumble（磕磕巴巴）while reading or it feels dull，look for ways to jazz up（使活泼）the words and improve the flow．A．You'll also need to write the speech skillfully．B．How you deliver the speech is also important．C．You can gain inspiration from others' speeches．D．Instead，if interested，they may stick with you until the end．E．So the essay form can offer a good foundation for the process．F．However，unlike essays，speeches are not to be read but to be heard．G．In other words，your speech should contain some color，drama，or humor．第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．16．（30分）One dark morning during my walk，I fell and had my arm broken．I received several（1）over

2020届焦作市第一中学高三英语三模试题及答案解析
2020届焦作市第一中学高三英语三模试题及答案解析第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABob and Sue Harvey spent nine years as resident fellows in a dormitory at Sanford and in their bookVirtual Reality and The College Freshman, they write “The Freshman oftenfaces an identity problem during the first semester.” College is a more pressured environment than it used to be, in part because the academic gap between high school and college has increased. Many college freshmen have never had to make independent decisions about sex, drugs and alcohol. Most don’t know how to manage their time or money. They often feel lonely and overwhelmed, resulting in anxiety and depression.Nancy Corbin, director of clinical service for student-counseling (咨询) services at Iowa State University, says her office is seeing a significant increase in requests for counseling from freshmen who are having trouble making the adjustment to college life. She says older teenagers increasingly lack the skills to deal with personal problems that aren’t easily defined or fixed. And they get homesick but have a hard time admitting it.Parents and high schools can make things easier on freshmen by preparing them differently. For example, by teaching them to budget their hours and dollars. The Harveys think high schools should offer a college-life course. “Parents need to focus more on relationship and personal issues and less on how many sheets and towels to take,” they say. Many homesick freshmen think they’ll be regarded as failures if they come home before Thanksgiving. So parents can help by letting them know they’re welcome to return if they feel the need. In the meantime, parents have to find new ways to keep in touch with their college kids. One of the best ways is e-mail. It’s less unpleasant and less expensive than constant phone calls and is more likely to be answered than a handwritten letter.1. Why is the first semester difficult for freshmen in college?A. Because they often fail in exams.B. Because they lack time and money.C. Because they are too homesick to make new friends.D. Because they have to settle personal issues on their own.2. In the last paragraph, it is suggested that ________.A. parents should stop buying anything for their kidsB. parents should develop a good relationship with their kidsC. parents should be taught how to send e-mails to their kidsD. parents should work with high schools in college-life courses3. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Hard Life of College FreshmenB. Approaches to Trouble in CollegeC. Freshmen’s Adaptation ProblemsD. A Strange Phenomenon in CollegeBZaki was small for his twelve years, and he was angry being treated as a child. Farid, his older brother, had been looked upon as a man long before he was Zaki’s age. Every day Farid and the other young Bahraini men went out in their wooden boats to dive for oysters (牡蛎). Many times Zaki begged to go along, but Faridalways refused to let him.So every day Zaki would go to the shallow water to practice. His grandfather, a former diver, would watch him and advise him. All morning, Zaki would practice diving beneath the waves. Every afternoon, again and again he would go underwater and hold his breath. With each day’s practice, his diving improved and he could hold his breath a little while longer. Soon Zaki felt as much at home in the water as he did out of it.Zaki rose early one day. He wanted to compete with his brother. They dived beneath the waves. Zaki opened his eyes and found himself looking into his brother’s face. Farid was smiling with confidence. Slowly, the smile was disappearing from Farid’s face. As more seconds passed, a worried look appeared on Farid’s face. Farid was realizing that Zaki could possibly beat him. Looking into Farid’s eyes, Zaki suddenly understood what losing could mean to his brother. Never would the villagers allow him to live it down. He would be laughed at by losing to a little child. Almost without thinking, Zaki kicked his feet and rose to the surface of the water a second before Farid’s head appeared beside him.The men around them cheered and patted Farid on the back. Farid, however, put his arm around Zaki’s shoulders. “Today,” Farid announced, “we shall have a new diver among us.” Then quietly, for Zaki’s ears alone, he said “Thank you, my brother.” And Zaki knew that they both had learned that it takes more than strength to makea man.4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. Zaki’s grandfather was a good diver.B. Zaki liked staying at home every day.C. Zaki practised hard in the water daily.D. Zaki’s grandfather encouraged him to dive.5. Which of the following best describes Zaki according to paragraph 3?A. Considerate.B. Ambitious.C. Confident.D. Adventurous.6. What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?A. Farid beat his little brother easily.B. Zaki was as strong as his brother.C. Zaki regretted losing the competition.D. Both Farid and Zaki had grown up.7. What is the best title for the text?A. Farid’s PrideB. Zaki’s ChallengeC. Brothers’ CompetitionD. Grandfather’s AdviceCThe shade of a single tree can provide welcome relief from the hot summer sun. But when that single tree is part of a small forest, it creates a considerable cooling effect. According to a study published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, trees play a big role in keeping our cities cool.According to the study, the right amount of tree cover can lower summer daytime temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit. And the effect is quite noticeable from neighborhood to neighborhood, even down to the scale of a single city block. “We knew that cities are warmer than the surrounding countryside, but we found that temperatures vary just as much within cities,” says Monica Turner, a professor in the department of Integrative Biology, Wisconsin-Madison University and a co-author of the study.With climate change making extreme heat events more common each summer, city planners are working on how to prepare. Heat waves drive up energy demands and costs and can have big human health impacts. One potentially powerful tool, the study's authors say, are organisms that have been around long before human civilizations could appreciate their leafy benefits. And those trees may be the secret to keeping the places we live livable.Essentially, says Turner, roads, sidewalks and buildings absorb heat from the sun during the day and slowly release that heat at night. Trees, on the other hand, not only shade those surfaces from the sun's rays, they also release water into the air through their leaves, a process that cools things down.To get the maximum benefit of this cooling service, the study found that tree cover must be more than 40percent. In other words, an aerial picture of a single city block would need to be nearly half-way covered by a leafy green network of branches and leaves.8. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Temperatures in cities mainly depend on their green coverage.B. People living and working in cities must plant trees in summer.C. Cities are warmer than the countryside because they don't have trees.D. An area with more trees can be cooler than the other parts within a city.9. Which of the following problems is caused by extreme heat events?A. Severe damage of city facilities.B. Serious human health problems.C. Residents' growing demands for plants.D. Unnecessary waste of energy resources.10. Why are trees crucial to cities?A. They help shade and cool the cities.B. They make urban scenery beautiful.C. They build up city cooling systems.D. They essentially block and release heat.11. What can city planners conclude from the study?A. They should publish the study in a newspaper.B. They should educate citizens to protect forests.C. They should plant trees on roads and sidewalks.D. They should cover nearly half the city with trees.DAbout a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.12. Why did Lori make the call?A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.13. What impressed “I” by Lori?A. Lori was good at running recruiting.B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.14. What can we infer from the passage?A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder.B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.C. Applying for a Job in Facebook.D. A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The government said the state of emergency — set to last for about two weeks— would be “short and powerful”. Under the measures, bars will be required to close and big sporting events will be held without audience. The government has insisted that the Olympics will go ahead in July.Prime minister Yoshihide Suga announced the measures on Friday, saying they would begin on Sunday and remain in place until 11 May. In addition to to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and Hyogo will be affected. It has marked the third state of emergency in japan since the pandemic began. “I sincerely apologize for causing trouble for many people again,” he said. “It is feared that infection in major cities will spread across the whole country if we take no measures.”Under the rules, major facilities like department stores will close, as well as restaurants, bars, and KTV rooms serving alcohol. Restaurants that do not serve alcohol are being told to close early, and companies are being asked to make arrangements for people to work remotely. Schools will remain open. Besides, the emergency measurescoincide withthe country’s “Golden Week” holiday, which runs from late April to the first week of May and is the busiest travel period of the year. Tokyo governor Yuriko Koike urged residents to start taking precautions immediately. In an effort to discourage people from going out at night. She said neon signs (霓虹灯) would be turned off.The coronavirus toll in Japan has been much lower than that in many other countries, with about 558,000 cases and fewer than 10,000 deaths, according to figures collected by Johns Hopkins University. But there are concerns over the latest rise in infections, with reports of hospital bed shortages in some areas.Tokyo 2020 president Seiko Hashimoto said at a news conference on Friday that organizers were not considering canceling the event. “I hope the coronavirus situation improves with the prevention measures thegovernment, Tokyo, and other regional governments have put into place,” she said. “We, as Tokyo 2020, continue to wish for the swift return to normal and will continue to work closely to make sure a safe and secure Olympics can happen.”4.

The psychologists had, of course, arranged it so that neither of these obvious approaches would work. The tacks are too short, and the paraffin (石蜡) doesn't stick to the wall. So how can you complete the task? The successful technique is to use the tack box as a candle-holder. You empty it, tack it to the wall. and stand the candle inside it. To think of that, you have to look beyond the box's usual role as a receptacle just for tacks and re-imagine it serving an entirely new purpose. That is difficult because we all suffer to one degree or another from functional fixedness.The inability to think in new ways affects people in every corner of society. The political theorist Hannah Arendt coined the phrase“frozen thoughts”to describe deeply held ideas that we no longer question but should. In Arendt's eyes, the self- content reliance on such accepted “truths”also made people blind to ideas that didn't fit their worldview, even when there was plenty of evidence for them.Frozen thinking has nothing to do with intelligence, she said,“It can be found in highly intelligent people.”8. What does the underlined word“it”in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The experiment.B. Functional fixedness.C. The path.D. The thinking.9. Which way is hard to think of to complete the task?A. Tacking the candle to the wall.B. Fixing the candle with melted wax.C. Using the tack box as a candle-holder.D. Lighting the candle tostand it.10. Which of the following statements will Hannah Arendt agree with?A. People should question.B. We should be used to the way things are.C. People shouldn't accept the idea that doesn't fit their worldview.D. The smarter people are，the more open to the new things they are.11. What's the passage mainly about?A. An interesting experimentB. A psychological phenomenon.C. A theory to be proved.D. The opinion of Hannah Arendt.DPablo Picasso was born on October25 inMalaga. Spain in 1881. Taking after his father, Picasso shared apassion（热爱）for painting and art. Even though he wasn't the best student in school, Picasso excelled at drawing. Noticing his amazing talent, Picasso's father, an artist, taught him everything he knew. Before long, Picasso could paint and draw much better than his father. With this rich talent, Picasso paid less and less attention to his schoolwork and spent the majority of his day sketching and drawing in notepads and sketchbooks.When he was a little bit older, Picasso moved twice and was accepted into two fine art programs. However,he didn't care very much for the special techniques they taught and often wandered the streets by himself drawing the scenes around him. After moving to these two places, Picasso moved back home toBarcelonaand decided that he would develop new techniques of art and painting based on what he saw.Later, Picasso decided to move toParis,France, where he began perfecting his own techniques of painting, drawing and other forms of art.

This type of art is very important because no other artists had come up with the idea before. Picasso decided to try something new, and as a result, cubismis widely accepted today as a classic style of art.Picasso inspires us to always be thinking.
