2020年宁波市中考模拟测试英语试卷(含答案)
2020年宁波市普通高中保送生模拟测试英语试卷一、完形填空（每小题1分，满分15分）I was sitting in the surgical waiting area at the hospital waiting for word of my wife's operation. The small room was filled with other families and friends who were 1 waiting to hear how their loved ones were doing.There was a young boy sitting quietly in the 2 . He held a small box of crayons in one hand and a tablet (写字板) in the other. Every so often he'd place the tablet on his lap and draw something. As the hours passed I began to see the room almost 3 . And there was a strange silence.“Daddy, when is Mommy going home?” asked the young boy. “Tomorrow,” his father replied.I 4 him as he moved his feet back and forth, looking up at the ceiling and then toward the sunshine-filled window. “When's 5 , Daddy?” he asked. His father 6 him over to sit by him. __7 his things, the little boy walked slowly to his father's side from the corner.The man 8 out and held his son by his shoulders. “There are three days in life. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. One is over and done, one we live in, the other we 9 .We can't live in yesterday, but if we are happy enough today, we will be even happier tomorrow,” he said in an attempt to 10 the boy.The little boy looked at him for a moment and said, “If Mommy is going home tomorrow, I'll be __11 . So, I want it to be tomorrow already, Daddy.”Now hanging on every word of this conversation, I leaned forward to hear his response. It was 12 .“Son, the one great thing about today is once it 13 , it is already almost tomorrow.”I thought about how 14 it was. Even in my adult life, I still live waiting for what tomorrowmay 15 . Now I know that it is already “almost tomorrow”.1.A. patiently B. happily C. peacefully D. eagerly2.A. chair B. distance C. corner D. shadow3.A. dark B. empty C. full D. clean4.A. followed B. found C. caught D. watched5.A. today B. yesterday C. tomorrow D. future6.A. knocked B. ordered C. pulled D. called7.A. saving B. forgetting C. gathering D. choosing8.A. reached B. took C. set D. got9.A. spend B. waste C. expect D. kill10.A. frighten B. warn C. persuade D. satisfy11.A. better B. calmer C. smarter D. happier12.A. perfect B. silly C. active D. humorous13.A. ends B. passes C. starts D. lasts14.A. sincere B. important C. interesting D. meaningful15.A. happen B. come C. need D. bring二、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分30分）(A)Whenever my dog, Barney, comes into the house after having been for a ride in the car, he runs to the pen (围栏) we have set up for him by the back door. It's not something we intentionally trained him to do. The habit came simply because my husband tended to put him in his pen whenever they came in. After doing it a few times, Barney just figures that's what you do when you come inside after a car ride.It's the same with your thinking. You get into the habit of thinking a certain way and then you'll rarely question it after that.This is especially true when you were growing up. You developed habits that just made things easier for you. You probably didn’t even think about them. That's just the way it was and that's what you did. Just like Barney thinks he has to go into his pen, you do things automatically as well.For example, when you were a kid, you may have been told not to “talk back” and to just keep quiet about things that were bothering you. These are habits that might have worked to keep you safe and out of trouble when you were young.Now that you're grown up, you may be finding that these previous strategies are actually causing you problems. In a relationship, not communicating isn't going to work as your partner can't read your mind. What works when you're a child may not work when you become an adult.When you decide you need to change your thoughts, your brain may at first feel that it's not asafe thing to do. Lots of practice and years of experience says it's not. Also, you don't know to question the thought. It’s a truth for you. The trick is to look at your results and see if your thoughts are the cause. Be willing to question your thinking and ask yourself if there are thoughts that are hindering (妨碍) you. As you are now in a different phase of your life, different strategies may be needed.16. The writer gives the example of her dog in Paragraph1 in order to ________________?A. introduce the following passageB. show us her dog is cleverC. realize the importance of habitsD. tell us how to train a dog17. As with the dog Barney, people ________________________.A. think in a habitual wayB. enjoy having a car rideC. usually behave in a friendly wayD. have a good memory18. According to the passage, as a child, one may _________________.A. behave in a friendly wayB. have a very good memoryC. enjoy having a car rideD. follow what was told to do19. In the writer’s opinion, adults should _____________________.A. be able to express themselvesB. be afraid to make mistakesC. treasure their habits in childhoodD. avoid causing any problems20. We can conclude from the passage that _________________________.A. the writer’s husband must be good at training dogsB. childhood is the best time for developing good habitsC. one can change his/her life by changing his/her thoughtsD. we should change all our childhood habits when we grow up(B)If you're in a hard time, a tiny thing may be the greatest help for you. That’s touch. Touch is one of the most important of our five senses. It is one of the first senses we develop. One of the most commonly accepted forms of touch among people is also one of the first experiences we have in the world---A hug!There is no better way to understand the importance of hugs than to lose them. For those who have experienced the loss of hugs, you will know how important they are to share.A recent research has shown that when people hug, the brain releases the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear. It has also shown that hugs are great for your heart.In 1995, a pair of newly born twins was being cared for in hospital. While one of the twins seemed quite healthy, her sister was not. After trying different medical treatments, the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian, placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled (依偎)up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is!The need for hugs doesn’t disappear as we grow older, though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness. A hug provides us with social contact, a sense of health and a feeling of importance and belonging.21.The writer believe that ______________________.A. touch is the most important senseB. hug is one of human’s five senseC. touch is the first developed senseD. hug is one of the forms of touch22.A recent research has shown that __________________________.A. hug can release a kind of chemicalB. hug is good for people’s heartC. hug increases people’s fearD. hug reduces the feeling of trust23.The story of the twins tells us _________________________.A. twins should be placed in bed togetherB. the power of a hug is greatC. the twins should be looked after togetherD. medical treatments are important24.Which of the statements is TRUE according of the passage?A. A hug is the only form of touch among people.B. The loss of hugs can make them more important.C. Hugs can get people to trust each other moreD. We don’t need hugs when we grow older.25.The best title of the passage can be __________.A. The Great Importance of HugsB. The Different Ways of HugsC. The Traditional Cultures of HugsD. The Interesting Stories of Hugs(C)We desire to believe that we can get fit without effort. We invent chocolate-chip cookie diets to make us thin while eating fat. We wish to get fit from doing absolutely nothing. We wish to lie in bed, think about going to the gym and then, get the body a Greek god.A new study from Brian Clark at Ohio University shows that sitting still, while just thinking about exercise, might make us stronger. Clark and colleagues recruited 29 volunteers and wrapped their wrists in surgical casts for an entire month. During this month, half of the volunteers thought about exercising their immobilized wrists. For 11 minutes a day, 5 days a week, they sat completely still and focused their entire mental effort on pretending to flex their muscles. When the casts were removed, the volunteers that did mental exercises had wrist muscles that were two times stronger than those who had done nothing at all.The idea behind the research is not a new concept—just a concept that’s often neglected in the field of neuroscience our bodies and our brains develop together. Even though we treat our mind and bodies as two separate things, they are finally and closely connected.Indeed, even before Brian Clark published his study, other researched had explained links between the brain and the muscles. The years ago, Buang Yue at the Cleveland Clinic reported that imaginary exercise increases the strength of finger muscles by up to 35%. Just five years ago, Kai Miller at the University of Washington, showed that imaginary exercise activates the same brain areas that are activated during real exercise. Brain Clark’s research adds to this body of knowledge and provides compelling evidence about the role of neuromuscular pathways in strength training.26.What’s the purpose of chocolate-chip cookie diets?A. To keep strong.B. To grow thinner.C. To keep fat.D. To have muscles.27.The experiment proves that ___________________.A. wrapping their wrists may be quickB. showing their muscles needs effortsC. sitting still might make us strongerD. thinking about exercise is so useful28.Which of the following concepts is often neglected according to the passage?A. Our mind and bodies are two separate things.B. Our bodies and brains develop together.C. Our mind has a close relation to bodies.D. Our mind has little effect on our brains.29.What does the underlined word mean in the last paragraph?A. Make quick.B. Make slow.C. Make good.D. Make active.30.What’s the best title for the passage?A. How to grow stronger without lifting weights.B. How to carry out a muscle exercise program.C. How to prevent muscle from growing thinner.D. How to provide pathways in strength training.三、语法填空（每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。

I have been trying to help other people whenever I can all these years.Tina: One of my neighbors is an old man who cannot speak. He makes money by recyclingwaste. Our other neighbors don't like his behavior. But in my opinion, it's his way to support hisfamily. Once, after cleaning my house, I placed some cardboard boxes in his garden and left myrubbish beside my door.

While I was in college, it was really easy to meet new people. But "out in the real world", I was finding it really hard. I live in a big city, and it seems like everyone around me is busy or already has all the friends they want. I was feeling so discouraged(沮丧的）and I didn't know what to do, so I called my sister for some advice.My sister is five years older than I am, so she's been through all this already. She's been helping me with my problems all my life. When I explained my problem, she understood completely. She said, "Why don't you try meeting people online?""Online? Are you kidding?" I asked. "A friend of mine chatted with a guy online, and when she finally met him face to face, he was nothing like what he said."My sister laughed. "You don't have to look for dates online," she said. "But you can find other people like you—people who have just moved to town and want to make some new friends. When I first moved to New York after college, I found a book club and a football team online. I met a lot of people that way.""But you don't even like football!" I said."I know," she replied. "But that didn't matter. I still bad a lot of fun. You played volleyball in college. Why don't you look for a volleyball team to join? Or an art class?""Yeah! I saw a website about volunteering the other day." I said. "I could volunteer for an organization here in Washington. I bet I could meet a lot of really nice people that way.""Good idea!" my sister answered excitedly. "Hey, you might even meet the perfect guy.""OK, now you're starting to sound like Mom," I said. "Thanks a lot for the advice. I'm going online right now. I'll let you know what happens. Will you be home tonight?""No, but I'll be here all day t o morrow, so give me a call," my sister replied.

Making Friends in a New City(C)Artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能）is the ability of a computer program or a machine to think and learn. It is also a field of study that tries to make computers "smart". John McCarthy, a scientist, came up with the name "artificial intelligence" in 1955. Many things such as learning and problem solving can be done by computers, though not in the same way as we do.An unusual goal of AI research is to create computer programs that can learn, solve problems, and think logically(逻辑地）. At present we use the term Al for successfully understanding human speech, recognizing(识别）human faces, operating self-driving cars and competing in some game systems like Chess and AlphGo（阿尔法狗）. Some people also consider AI a danger to humans if it develops too quickly. Professor Stephen Hawking (霍金), a well-known British scientist, was not for this kind of technology.Math is the basic language of AI. If we raise the standard in the learning of math, our students will be more likely to become successful AI designers in the future.

Kennedy's quote(引语）"Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." shows an unpleasant truth.Much of what we know and believe has been taught to us by others, and we often accept this information without spending much time thinking it over for ourselves.In today's world, we are being presented with information, ideas and beliefs, but many of them are against each other. Psychology(心理学）tells us that if we hear an idea enough times, or心t comes from someone we respect(尊敬), we will probably believe that idea. In these cases, we base our opinions on the opinions of others. If each of us does not think about this information for ourselves and come to our own conclusions , we will become nothing more than parrots（鹦鹉）quoting the opinions of others.Examples of spreading fake news without thought can be seen on the Internet. Some people believe whatever they read and then share the story without thinking about the facts. All it takes is one quick click(点击）of the "share" button, and the story travels on its way to influence even more unthinking readers. This can cause serious problems.If we just stop for a moment to think about what we read and hear, and form our own opinions, we will be more thoughtful, more independent, and more creative people, but few take that time. Yet we need not lose heart over this bad habit. In fact, simply becoming aware (意识到）of it is the first step towards correcting it. Once we become aware that we tend(趋向）to hold opinions and beliefs without thinking them through, we can change that pattern of behavior. Hopefully, we can learn to experience and enjoy the "discomfort of thought" and form our own opinions.27. What's the purpose of this passage?A. To describe how Internet news spreads.B.
