福建省福州市2021年高三下学期高中毕业班3月综合质量检测英语试题

福建省福州市2021年高三下学期高中毕业班3月综合质量检测英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择Aerial(空中的)performer Jennifer Bricker was born without legs, but she never let it stop her.Wrapped in a loop(圈)of red silk hung from the ceiling Jennifer Bricker climbs and twists to the music. Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the ground a move that’s all the more daring because she has no legs.Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶), they refused.Jennifer soon learned to walk — and run — on her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline (蹦床)with her three older brothers. “ My parents didn’t treat me differently so I didn’t grasp the concept that I was different. I knew I didn’t have legs but that wasn’t stoppi ng me from doing the things I wanted to do. "At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to them —she moved more freely without.In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch the women’s gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14-year-old Dominique Moceanu who competed for the US. When Moceanu and the women’s team won gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer. 1.What do we know about Jennifer Bricker?A.She felt embarrassed without legs.B.She was brought up as a normal child.C.She was carried in a bucket as a baby.D.She lost her legs when she was adopted.2.Why did Jennifer determine to be a gymnast ?A.She knew that she was different from others.B.She wanted to make allowances for her disabilityC.She was eager to participate in the Junior Olympics.D.She was greatly influenced by Dominique Moceanu.3.Which of the following can best describe Jennifer Bricker?A.Self-respected. B.Cautious. C.Sensitive. D.Clever. 4.What is the passage mainly about?A.The sufferings of a gymnast.B.The memory of an aerial performer.C.The experiences of an adoptive family.D.The growing process of a disabled person.What is TrackR?TrackR is the simplest way to find lost or misplaced items. Join the millions of people who are connected to their most important items.Order a TrackR today and never lose anything again.5.What do you think is the passage?A.Descriptions of several products. B.An advertisement of a product.C.An introduction to lost items. D.Directions of a new item.6.How many functions does a TrackR have?A.Three. B.Four. C.Five. D.Six. 7.Which of the following can replace the underlined “a snap” in the passage?A.An easy job. B.A necessary task.C.An available method D.A quiet action.Booking a trip on an online travel site is convenient, but comes with its own set of problems.◆They know who’s go n e to spend more.Last year, U. S travel research company Orbitz tracked people’s online activities to test out whether Mac users spend more on travel than PC users. Turns out that on average, Mac userslay out US $ 20~30 more per night on hotels. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid paying more, sort results by price.◆Their software doesn’t always link to the hotel’s system.A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere — but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middleman’s software isn’t immune(防护作用的)to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.◆You could miss out on loyalty (积分) points.Third party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programs don’t recognize external sites, others award only minimum points without special offers, like double points on hotel stays.◆Don’t be fooled by packages: Often, they’re low-end items grouped together.Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click. These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers(中途停留). Check the fine print.◆Once your trip is purchased, you’re on your own.An online travel agency can’t provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hot el, you’re just another customer who booked at the lowest rate.8.What does the writer mainly intend to tell readers?A.Tips of how to reserve flights on line.B.Problems of reserving a hotel on line.C.Notices about reserving a trip on line.D.Traps in reserving hotels and flights on line.9.Why do people probably spend more on their online reservation for trips?A.They book at prices offered first by travel sites.B.They are shown less expensive travel options first.C.Some of the travel expenses are earned by Mac users.D.Their flights or hotels are overbooked by tourist agencies.10.Which of the following can replace the underlined “fine print”?A.Detailed items. B.Discounted prices.C.Good deals. D.Special services.11.What can we learn from the passage?A.The third parties will provide good travel services on line.B.Few people book trips on line because of possible troubles.C.Travelers’ interests may not be guaranteed with booking on line.D.Those booking trips on line will benefit much from loyalty pointsAccording to a team of researchers,an animal's ability to perceive(感知)time is linked to their pace of life.“Our results lend support to the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving creatures." commented lead author Kevin Healy from Trinity College Dublin.The study was done with a variety of animals using phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flashes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant. Dogs,for example,have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans.One example of this phenomenon at work,the authors say,is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit. The research showed flies “ob serve motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve,"which allows them to avoid being hit.Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland,who worked jointly on the research project,said in a statement,“Having eyes that send up dates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly. Thus,this work highlights the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains. Flies might not be deep thinkers,but they can make good decisions very quickly. ”In comparison,the tiger beetle(虎甲虫)runs faster than its eyes can keep up,basically becoming blind,which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its prey's(猎物)position.Our results suggest that time perception offers an as yet unstudied dimension along which animals can specialize and there is considerable range to study this system in more detail. 12.What is the research mentioned in the passage mainly about?A.Pace of life of animals. B.Impressive abilities of animals. C.Lifetime of small animals. D.Time perception of animals. 13.What does Kevin Healy's comment mean in Para.2?A.The survival of fast moving animals relies on their ability to perceive time.B.Animals with quicker pace of life have better perception of time.C.The ability of animals to perceive time depends on their high moving speed. D.Animals with poor ability of time perception have a shorter life.14.Why can houseflies avoid being hit?A.They can think very deeply before they act.B.They can process the information as quickly as they receive it.C.They can fly much faster than their eyes can keep up.D.They can send information to brain more quickly than to their eyes.15.What will a tiger beetle have to do to catch a moving prey?A.Slow down to gain its time perception.B.Prevent itself from becoming blind.C.Stop occasionally to spot the prey again.D.Try to run as fast as it can.二、七选五根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AWant to be more successful? If so,then you need to read a few self-help books.Here are four popular ones to get you going.59 Seconds ( 2009) by Richard WisemanThis is a self-help book with a difference. Wiseman,a scientist,uses science to prove many self-help myths(神话) are false. For example,self-help books say that if you want to achieve a goal,you should visualize it. But Wiseman says that's the worst thing to do. Studies show that you need to visualize the steps required to achieve the goal.How to Win Friends& Influence People ( 1936) -by Dale CarnegieThis is the book that launched the self-help type. Carnegie says financial success is 15% professional knowledge and 85% the ability to express ideas,assume leadership,and motivatepeople. The book is full of practical advice on how to influence people by making them like you.The Millionaire Next Door (1996) by Thomas Stanley & Wlliam DankoThe authors of this book spent years interviewing American millionaires to figure out the secrets of their success. And they discovered that a majority of millionaires don't live luxury lifestyles. They're rich because they live below their means and reinvest what theyearn.Who Moved My Cheese? (1998)-by Spencer JohnsonWho Moved My Cheese? An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life,published on September 8,1998,is a motivational business fable(寓言). The text describes change in one's work and life,and four typical reactions to those changes by two mice and two "little people",during their hunt for cheese.21. What is the key to achieving success in 59 Seconds?A. To employ science.B. To follow examples.C. To picture procedures.D. To visualize the goal.22. What is Dale Carnegie's book mainly about?A. How to master occupational knowledge.B. How to apply practical techniques.C. How to gain strong management.D. How to become popular persons.23. Which book can help you adapt to change in your life?A.59 SecondsB. Who Moved My Cheese?C. The Millionaire Next DoorD. How to Win Friends& Influence PeopleBWhen Millet was a boy he worked on his needy father's farm. At the rest hour in the fields the other workers would all take naps,but young Millet would spend time drawing,Finally the village where he lived gave him a little money to Paris to study art.When Millet reached Paris he had a tough time. Fortunately,when he was almost starving,someone bought one of his peasant paintings,which enabled his family to leave for Barbizon.Millet's pictures of peasants at work were painted in a unique way. The painter would go out on the farms and watch them carefully-- digging,hoeing,spreading manure,sawing wood,or sowing grain. Then he would come home and paint what he had seen. So astonishingly accurate was his memory that he could paint at home without models and get all the movements of his figures right. When he did need a figure to go by he would ask his。

Herhead hangs down and herstrong arms letgo asshebalances on her back, high above theground a move that’s allthe more daring because she hasno legs.Jennifer was a few months old when she wasadopted bySharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile,and hugeamountsof energy.
