It can be seen almost everywhere today. But have you ever wondered who invented it?Whitcomb Judson was an inventor. He had a friend who had a sore back. Judson’s friend couldn’t bend over to tie his shoes. In order to help his friend out, Judson designed what he called a “clasp locker”for him, basically a slide fastener that could be opened and closed with one hand. He patented (取得专利权) the idea in 1891. Even though he started his own company to make the clasp locker, Judson didn’t make his invention famous.The zipper as we know today is a result of the work of a Swedish-American engineer called Gideon Sundback, who worked as head engineer at Judson’s company. Sundback improved on Judson’s design. His design was stronger, faster and more reliable than the former one, and Sundback patented it in 1917，calling it the “separable fastener”. With World War One fully underway, the army used his design on its clothing and equipment for the soldiers，although the invention still hadn’t become popular with the public.However, that all changed in 1923 when theB. F. Goodrich Company decided to use Sundback5s invention on their new rubber boots (靴子）.A leader at the company named them zippers after the noise they made, and the name stuck. As the invention became popular, it caught the attention of fashion designers in France, who used zippers in men trousers.The zipper not only makes it more convenient to fasten clothing, but plastic zippers are also wind-, dust-and water-proof, and they don^ stick or rust (生绣). The invention of plastic zippers also meant they could be created in any color, making them another great tool in the fashion industry. Overall, it simply makes life easier for everyone, especially for those with disabilities.4.Why did Whitcomb Judson create the “clasp locker”？A.To make a friend’s life easier.B.To help out his own company.C.To beat his competitor Sundback.D.To avoid the trouble of tying his shoes.5.What do we know about the “separable fastener”？A.It failed to work very well.B.It gained immediate success then.C.It was one of Whitcomb Judson’s designs.D.It attracted the army’s attention with its advantages.6.What’s implied about the zipper in the last paragraph?A.It is a significant invention.B.It requires complex production work.C.It develops people’s interest in art.D.It changes people’s attitudes to the fashion industry.7.What is the text mainly about?A.The benefits of the zipper.B.The history of the zipper.C.The real inventor of the zipper.D.The different designs of the zipper.CCanadian lynxes (猞猁）are rarely seen and little is known about their distribution. This lack ofinformation has prevented efforts to protect the endangered animal.Canadian lynxes are thought to extend across most of northern North America. Finding them can be like finding a needle in a haystack (大海捞针). A team of scientists have been setting up cameras in remote forests for years in Montana and Idaho, hoping to discover, among other things, Canadian lynxes. However, they don’t always get the perfect picture. What’s more, it’s often hard to tell if the animal is a lynx or a bobcat just by pictures. Other ways are needed to offer help. Michael Schwartz, director of the Forest Service’s National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservation, says, “Now after a snowfall, all we have to do is find something that looks like it could be lynx tracks, get them out of the snow and send them to the lab.”As animals go about their daily lives, they release skin cells, hair, eggs, droppings and other biological materials into their environment. These materials contain trace amounts (微量）of the animal，s DNA. Such genetic traces are called environmental DNA, or eDNA. Advancements in biology have reduced the number of biological materials needed in order to run a genetic analysis over the past decade. What once required blood and hair can now be done with a small part of skin cells, allowing scientists to discover even small amounts of eDNA.Scientists compare eDNA with a database of known DNA to identify the animal. They have made great breakthroughs. However, they began to wonder if the technique could be applied to frozen water and snow; therefore Schwartz and his team tested on animal footprints in the snow. They found using eDNA is a helpful means of searching for lynxes in snow and that it was 10 times more effective and 10 times faster than traditional sampling methods.“Combining eDNA analyses with camera pictures can increase confidence in the existence of rare species, which can be really important to managing those species and understanding how rare species respond to environmental threats like climate change,” says Justine Smith, an ecologist at the University of California, Berkeley.8.What do the scientists find according to Paragraph 2?A.The cameras can’t work well in the wild.B.The cameras are often broken by Canadian lynxes.C.Photos have greatly helped them save some wild animals.D.Photos alone can’t exactly prove the existence of Canadian lynxes.9.According to Paragraph 4, the advancements in biology make it possible for scientists to ____________.A.know about animals，daily lives wellB.avoid some dangers during their eDNA researchC.find better ways to help protect endangered animalsD.carry out eDNA research through slight biological materials10.What can we know about the eDNA technique from Paragraph 5?A.It still needs improving on identifying animal footprints.B.It has proved to work better in warm environments.C.It’s effective in finding animals in snowy environments.D.It takes much more time for research than traditional methods.11.What can we infer from Justine Smith’s words in the last paragraph?A.People have some doubts about the eDNA technique.B.We should take immediate measures to protect rare animals.C.Knowing about animals’ lives helps people get along with them.D.Knowing the existence of rare animals is significant to animal protection.DThe idea of renting clothes might seem strange to some, but it’s certainly not unheard of. Weddings, formal occasions, a fancy-dress party ... people rent clothes for these occasions all the time. But now some people are also renting clothes for everyday life, like friend gatherings, family trips or anytime they don’t want to be the same, they choose to rent clothes instead of buying them.We’ve talked before about how Fast Fashion is harmful to the environment, and for those who are concerned about the environment, a better way is badly needed. The drive by many fashion designers towards a greener life is towards longer-lasting clothes, which means making clothes that will last for years：Unfortunately, this isn’t always affordable for people, and wearing the same thing over and over isn’t attractive to young people.However, the latest findings suggest that 35% of microplastics in the ocean come from textiles (织物). And it’s shown that by 2050 the fashion industry will use up 25% of the world’s carbon budget (预算). Now 300,000 tonnes of clothes end up being in landfills (垃圾填埋场）each year, with the average American throwing away 40 kilos of used clothing yearly. The damage from such clothes is the end result of a process that damages the environment from the very start.The whole idea behind Fast Fashion is to wear clothes two or three times and then throw them away. This is where renting makes more sense. Many businesses have shown up over the last few years offering customers some kinds of dresses, which would only be voguish for one season. This way, one dress can be rented and worn by dozens of people, stopping each person from buying it themselves.With a recent study showing that half of the young women polled said they felt the need to wear a different look every time they went out, renting clothes might just be the answer to the Fast Fashion problem. Not only can renting clothes be better for the environment, but consumers can also save money, and open up space in their home.12.What is the problem of longer-lasting clothes?A.They are not easy to clean.B.They’re not popular with some customers.C.Fashion designers find it hard to meet customers’ demands.D.Environmentalists think them unfriendly to the environment.13.What does Paragraph 3 aim to show?A.Textiles are hard to break down in the ocean.B.Fast Fashion contributes a lot to environmental problems.C.Americans throw away large amounts of clothes every year.D.The fashion industry wastes plenty of natural energy every year.14.The underlined word “voguish” in Paragraph 4 could be replaced with “__________”.A.fashionableB. colorfulC.expensiveD. different15.What can we conclude from the text?A.People are getting bored with Fast Fashion.B.There are many benefits of renting clothes.C.There are strong arguments for renting clothes.D.People are doubtful about the quality of rental clothes.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。
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期末试题及参考答案
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期末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AChina has 410K5Gbase stationsChina built 257,000 new 5G base stations in the first half of the year, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT).Shipments of 5G phones reached 8623 million unis in China, with 5G package users hitting 66 million by the end of June, said Wen Ku, head of information and communication at the ministry.To give full play to the commercialization of 5G, more policies should be implemented to boost the vitality of the market, Wen said, adding that international cooperation in 5G technology, industry and application should be strengthened.AG600 seaplane’s test flightKunlong, China’s homegrown AG600 large amphibious aircraft, conducted its first sea-based test flight on Sunday morning, marking a new milestone in the program.The AG600 is China’s second amphibious aircraft, after the SH-5, which was developed in the 1970s for military purposes and has been retired for a long time.These specifications make it the world’s biggest amphibious aircraft, surpassing Japan’s ShinMaywa US-2 and Russia’s Beriev Be-200.Once in service, it will put an end to the absence of a large rescue aircraft in China and will be very useful in the national emergency rescue and disaster relief systems.Beidou products land abroadAccording to Ran Chengqi, director general of China Satellite Navigation Office, Beidou has been constantly deepening its compatibility, interoperability and cooperation with the US’ GPS, Russia’s GLONASS and the EU’s Galileo. It has also entered international organizations of civil aviation, maritime affairs, search and rescue satellites and mobile communication.BDS-based services have been successfully applied in land mapping, precision farming, digital development and smart port construction in member countries of ASEAN, South Asia, Eastern Europe, West Asia and Africa.1. What can we learn from this passage?A. The total number of 5G phones has reached a new level.B. Kunlong, unlike SH-5, is not just for military purposes.C. Technologies mentioned above need more cooperation with others.D. BDS-based services have been provided for users in many countries.2. Which of the following is most probably related to agriculture?A. 5G phonesB. BDS-based servicesC. AG600 seaplaneD. Beriev Be-2003. If your friend did a course in marketing management, he may choose a job in a ________.A. 5G technology related marketB. large amphibious aircraftC. BDS-based projectD. China Satellite Navigation OfficeBTo show empathy is to identify with another’s feelings. It is to emotionally put yourself in the place of another. The ability to empathize is directly dependent on your ability to feel your own feelings and identify them.If you have never felt a certain feeling, it will be hard for you to understand how another person is feeling. If you have never put your hand in a flame, you will not know the pain of fire. If you have not experienced jealousy, you will not understand its power.Readingabout a feeling and intellectually knowing about it is very different than actually experiencing it for yourself.Among those with an equal level of emotional intelligence, the person who has actually experienced the widest range and variety of feelings — the great depths of depression and the heights of fulfillment, for example, — is the one who is most able to empathize. On the other hand, when we say that someone “can’t relate” to other people, it is likely because they haven’t experienced, acknowledged or accepted many feelings of their own.Once you have felt discriminated against, for example, it is much easier to relate with someone else who has been discriminated against. Our innate emotional intelligence gives us the ability to quickly recall those instances and form associations when we encounter discrimination again. We then can use the “reliving” of those emotions to guide our thinking and actions. This is one of the ways nature slowly evolves towards a higher level of survival.For this process to work, the first step is that we must be able to experience our own emotions. This means we must be open to them and not distract ourselves from them or try to numb ourselves from our feelings through drugs, alcohol, etc.Next, we need to become aware of what we are actually feeling — to acknowledge, identify, and accept ourfeelings. Only then can we empathize with others. That is one reason why it is important to work on your own emotional awareness and sensitivity — in other words, to be “in touch with” your feelings.4. How does the author explain the feelings of empathy?A. By giving examples.B. By having classification.C. By making comparison.D. By providing data.5. Which statement may the author agree with?A. Low level of empathy leads to fewer varieties of feelings.B. The deeper one’s feelings are, the more empathetic one is.C. Empathy is a way we recently picked up for better survival.D. Rich experiences may not go with a high level of empathy.6. What’s the purpose of the last two paragraphs of the text?A. To advise a sincere attitude to one’s experiences.B To suggest a right understanding of empathy.C. To require a realbond with one’s emotions.D. To call for true acceptance of one’s feelings.7. What is the best title for the text?A. How Empathy UnfoldsB. Be Open to Your EmotionsC. Why Is Empathy ImportantD. Accept Your True SelfC14 days. That’s the time Chinese scientists took to identify the full genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus (新冠病毒) since its outbreak. It was shared with the WHO immediately, and has now become an important foundation for global researchers in the fight against the COVID-19. But first, let us turn the clock back 17 years, when it took months to identify the SARS virus. From months to 14 days, what changed? It turns out AI played an important part.The scientists first obtained bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid (支气管扩张灌洗液) samples from patients, isolated (分离) the DNA and RNA, then sequenced the genetic material by comparing them. AI’s advantage is its ability to recognize patterns among a flood of data.Let me put it in a simple way. Sequencing the coronavirus genome (基因组) is similarto looking for a needle in a haystack (干草堆)---looking for genotypes (基因型) with specific characteristics from a huge gene pool. That’s where search algorithm (算法), a branch of modern AI, comes in. Think of it as an efficient search engine, whichcan find the needle in the haystack. This search algorithm can shorten months-long genetic sequencing to weeks or even just a few days. Combined with macro-genomic sequencing and a virus library, this AI technology can also be used in tracking virus mutation (突变).AI doesn’t just support scientists. It can also help patients by improving the efficiency of diagnosis (诊断).Chinalaunched a Genomics Service, which can run multiple virus gene comparisons and produce a detailed report within 60 seconds. This algorithm hasbeen put into use inChinaand shared to the world for free.8. AI’s advantage is that it can ________.A. slow down the spread of coronavirusB. separate DNA from RNAC.identify specific genotypes rapidlyD. obtain samples from patients quickly9. The search algorithm helps shorten the time of genetic sequencing by __________.A. finding a needle in a haystackB. serving as a search engineC. combining with a virus libraryD. tracing virus mutation10. What do we know about the Genomics Service in the last paragraph?A. It has been widely used in the world.B. It is mainly based on blood test.C. It is for fast diagnosis of COVID-19.D. It is used to track COVID-19 patients.11. What’s the best title of the passage?A. 14 Days---ChinaMade it!B. AI Assists in COVID-19 FightC. Search Algorithm, Best ChoiceD. China’s Genomics ServiceDJanet Fein, aged 84, received her bachelor's degree from the University last week, having waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.Growing up in the Bronx area ofNew York City, Fein worked at a dress manufacturer after graduating early at the age of 16. After getting married, she spent 18 years staying home with her children. She held several jobs through her life, including 20 years as a secretary at a hospital until her retirement at age 77.Fein has had a full life. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned retirement. She decided to major in sociology because she felt it was “substantial.”Fein took part in a state program that lets people who are 65 and older take free classes at public universities in Texasand kept going to class even as her health conditions worsened. During her studies, it became necessary for her to use a walker to get around and she required oxygen. She also developed knee problems. So, Fein took online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements.Sheila Rollerson, Fein' scollege advisor, and Carol, the professor told the media that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. She would speak up a lot in class and it just made for a more interesting class.Fein has also inspired Renee Brown, one of Fein's caregivers. At 53, Renee plans to begin nursing school to further her career. “Renee, you can do it. If I can do it you can do it, and you will feel so good about it,” Brown remembers what Fein told her.12. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. Janet Fein's growthB. Janet Fein's aimC. Janet Fein's job experiencesD. Janet Fein's regrets13. What does the underlined phrase “substantial” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. InterestingB. ValuableC. EasyD. Affordable14. What can be learned about Fein according to the passage?A. Fein lived on little money after her retirement.B. Fein had a problem with her arms while at universities.C. The Internet played a role in Fein's university education.D. The good health helped Fein get her bachelor's degree.15. What is Janet Fein like according to the passage?A. Hardworking and humorous.B. Determined and generous.C. Positive and patient.D. Inspiring and perseverant.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。

深圳市龙岗区2019-2020学年下学期高一英语必修3 Modules 4-6综合测试题第一部分阅读(共两节，满分50分）第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
ANew England holds some special museums. They are devoted largely or entirely to the work of just one person. And they are the artists’ birthplaces or onetime homes. Here are four examples of such museums.Cyrus E. Dallin Art MuseumThe name Cyrus E. Dallin (1861-1944) might not be familiar, but several of the artist’s sculptures (雕塑）are, especially those related to Native Americans. A good example is his “Appeal to the Great Spirit”standing in front of the Museum of Fine Arts. Born in Utah, he lived in Arlington for the final four decades of his life. The museum is in the Jefferson Cutter House, an 1830 Greek styled building. Norman Rockwell MuseumRockwell (1894-1978) was America’s well-known artist. The museum, founded in 1969, moved into its present location, Robert A.M. Stern-designed building in 1993. Its 998 paintings and drawings are the latest single collection of Rockwell’s artworks.Kids 16 and under: free; adults: $20; the old: at a 10% discount(折扣）Edward Gorey HouseEdward Gorey (1925-2000) was an artist, but he was also an author and clothes designer. Gorey bought this 18th-century house in 1979 and lived there for the rest of his life. Edward Gorey House is also known as the Elephant House. Gorey had respect for animals. The activities of the house, from art education to exhibits, show Gorey’s support of animal wellbeing.Gilbert Stuart Birthplace and MuseumGilbert Stuart (1755-1828) is responsible for what may well be the most familiar work of any American artist. His drawing of George Washington is the basis of the first president’s portrait (画像) on the dollar. Stuart painted more than a thousand portraits throughout his life.1. What do we know about Cyrus E. Dallin?A. He built the Jefferson Cutter House.B. He lived in Arlington for half a century.C. He was best known for his Greek styled sculptures.D. He created famous works related to Native Americans.2. How much will an old couple pay to enter Norman Rockwell Museum?A. $36.B. $40.C. $60.D. $72.3. Where can visitor learn some history of American money?A. Edward Gorey House.B. Norman Rockwell Museum.C. Cyrus E. Dallin Art Museum.D. Gilbert Stuart Birthplace and Museum.BKenya’s Eliud Kipchoge won the Chicago Marathon (马拉松赛跑）in 2014. Since then, the runner has won every marathon he has attended, including the gold medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics (奥运会).In 2018, Kipchoge finished the Berlin Marathon in 2:01:39, breaking t he men’s world record: 2:02:57. On October 12, 2019, he finished the 26.2 miles in Vienna, Austria within twohours, faster than any other person in history.Kipchoge spent four months training for the 26.2 miles run against the clock, s aying, “That was the best period of my life although the pressure was very big on my shoulders. I got a phone call from the president of Kenya who cheered me up.”Kipchoge5s under-two-hour marathon attempt was well planned. The Prater Park course in Vienna, Austria, was carefully selected, taking into account factors (因素) like temperature and wind speed.41 runners helped Kipchoge keep the speed and protected him the wind. An electric car, moving at the speed required to beat the two-hour time limit, followed closely behind the group. Kipchoge was provided with high-tech shoes. To save time, Kipchoge was fed pre-prepared drinks and energy while he was running.Kipchoge’s record time, which tested the limits of humans, was not recognized as an official world record by the IAAF for several reasons. The marathon was not organized by the IAAF and also not open to other athletes. Additionally, foods can only be taken at prefixed stations. Providing foods to the competitor while he is running is not sanctioned.The lack of recognition did not bother Kipchoge. He thought he was the happiest man in the world to be the first human to run under two hours. From his successful under-two-hour marathon attempt, he learned that no human was limited. So he wished that more people all over the world could run under two hours in the future.4. What achievement did Eliud Kipchoge make in marathons?A. He has won two Summer Olympics.B. He set a new men’s world record in2018.C. He was the first one to finish the 26.2-mile run.D. He has been helping with marathon training since 2014.5. What can we learn about Kipchoge’s marathon attempt in Vienna?A. It was well prepared.B. It got IAAF’s support.C. It failed to attract public attention.D. It was faced with many difficulties.6. What does the underlined word “sanctioned” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Tested.B. Reported.C. Ignored.D. Permitted.7. What did Kipchoge expect people to do in the last paragraph?A. Try to live a happy life.B. Challenge their limits in running.C. Change their opinions on success.D. Try to get recognition from others.CIn 1893, the Arctic (北极的）explorer Fridtjof Nansen put his wooden ship on the sea ice of the northern Siberia, hoping that its natural drift (漂流) would take him to the North Pole. Though he failed to reach there through the sea ice, his 2,000-kilometer journey showed important data about the Arctic Ocean. Now an international team of MOSAiC researchers has started a similar journey for a climate change study of the Arctic.Their journey began in Tromso, Norway, in late September 2019. Before the journey, the team needed to find a piece of suitable sea ice to carry their research ship — Polarstern. The ice sheethad to be both strong enough to pull the ship and wide enough to provide a landing place for research airplanes. After a long time of search, they finally found an ice sheet that could do the job. “It may not be perfect, but it’s the best one in this part of the Arctic,” said Markus Rex.Carried by this sea ice’s drift, the Polarstern will now make its journey across the Arctic Ocean, allowing researchers to record scientific data and test guesses about the in^uence of global warming. For example, it has long been suggested that the population of small plants on the sea has greatl y increased due to the warmer Arctic water. But researchers don’t have such observations from the central Arctic. MOSAiC researchers’ observations will help determine if it’s true.The climate change study is meaningful. But during the Polarstern’s journey, the ice may break while researchers are working on the surface, which could prove deadly since people may fall into the deep narrow opening between ice sheets. And the scientists would also have to keep a watchful eye for the Arctic bears.Similar to Nan sen’s journey, the researchers have no idea where the Polarstern will be when the adventure ends in the fall of 2020. However, the researchers said they would go and do science wherever the ice might carry them and whatever risks there are.8. What can we learn about Fridtjof Nansen’s exploration?A. It destroyed some sea ice.B. It aimed to study the sea ice north of Siberia.C. It made him the first one to reach the North Pole.D. It contributed to people’s knowledge of the Arctic.9. According to Paragraph 2, the job of looking for suitable sea ice was _________.A. challengingB. interestingC. effortlessD. inspiring10. The example mentioned in Paragraph 3 showsA. the researchers’ confidence in their studyB. global warming’s huge influence on the seaC. the scientific benefits of Polarstern’s journeyD. people’s misunderstanding of climate change11. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. The researchers’ plans along the journey.B. Why climate change study is meaningful.C. The journey to the Arctic can be dangerous.D. How to protect the sea ice during the journey.DOn a typical day, men spend a third as much time cleaning as women. Does that make women goddess of cleanliness, while men are born to be unable to see the disorder in their midst?This is a common explanation for why men don’t do as much housework as women. Men walk into a room and they can’t see the dust or the piles of laundry. It lets men off the blame for not doing their fair share of the household cleaning.But in a recent study, we show that men aren’t dirt-blind. They can see mess (混乱) just as well as women. They are simply less seriously punished for not keeping their spaces neat and tidy. This household inequality is obvious over time, across professions and even when women work longer hours and make more money. Even in Sweden, where government policies are especially made to promote equality of men and women, women do more housework. Swedish women do twice asmuch daily housework as men do even though women are much more likely to work full-time than in other countries.In our study, we asked 327 men and 295 womenof various ages and backgrounds to rate (评估) a photo of a small living room and kitchen area. By random assignment (随机分配），some participants rated a photo of the room looking dirty while others examined a much tidier version of the same room. All participants looked at the one photo they were given and then rated how messy they thought it was and how urgently it needed cleaning. The first thing we wanted to know was whether men and women rated the rooms differently. Contrary to the popular saying, men and women saw the same mess. They rated the clean room as equally clean and the messy room as equally messy.So if “dirt blindness”isn’t to blame, why do women do more housework? Actually, that，s because social expectations different for men and women. Women may be judged more strictly for having a less-than-spotless home, and women’s awareness of these expectations may motivate them to do more.12. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 1?A. Men should take more family responsibility.B. Men do less housework than women.C. Most women like doing housework.D. Most men are lazy with housework.13. The author gives the example of Sweden to show that ___________.A. household inequality generally existsB. living habits determine household sharesC. family communication in household is necessaryD. Sweden tries hard to deal with household inequality14. What does the study result in Paragraph 4 imply?A. Women are easily annoyed about mess.B. Men tend to make quick decisions.C. Men’s blindness to mess is untrue.D. Women prefer living in tidy rooms.15. What mainly leads to household inequality?A. The lack of strict family rules.B. Women’s attitude towards f amilies.C. Men’s limited sense of family responsibility.D. Different social expectations for men and women.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。

Within hours of setting up camp, they almost ran out of water and while they eventually overcame that problem, they still had to stand mosquitoes and extreme hunger. The trip, which lasted 16 days, had to come to an end after Daniel cut his hand. The pair lost 46 pounds between them during their adventure.Back in Kuala Lumpur, the English friends spent several days recovering and were crazy about high- calorie snacks like burgers, pizza and cookies before flying back to the UK. Despite all the hardships they faced, including constant shivering (颤抖) during thunderstorms and hundreds of mosquito bites, the pair still thought their adventure was worth it.“It is scary at times, especially when you go to sleep at night. As you all know, a snake might get in your shelter and then you might not wake up the next morning,” Londoner Daniel said. “You can really step on a snake at any point and not know it. You realize this is how fools die in the wild and are never found.”“Everyone will face the life-and-death situation, but it’s normally not planned. And most people won’t choose to put themselves in that situation,” James Moynihan said. “We have, and we can tell you that Malaysia is the most awarding bet we’ve ever taken because now we can say we have felt what it’s like to have lived.”4.

How to face the life-and-death situationCBefore Shakespeare’s plays were performed in the famous Globe Theatre, they graced (为……增光) the stage of another London-based playhouse. It was known simply as The Theatre, and Shakespeare staged some of his most famous plays there, including Romeo and Juliet. Nowadays, plans are being carried out to unveil The Theatre for the first time in over 400 years, so that people can know The Theatre and something about it.The remains of the 16th-century playhouse were discovered during a dig. Now, Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) is working to turn the site into a public exhibition. Visitors will have the chance to view the remains of The Theatre through a window inside the exhibition, which is given the name The Box Office. The objects and things unearthed during the dig will also be on view along with other objects borrowed museums across London that highlight the history and culture of that time. The exhibition is expected to open very soon.In the meantime, the process is also a learning experience for experts. Just last week, MOLA announced new findings that actor James Burbage who designed the three-storied theatre also created a space surrounding the theater. Shakespearean plays often lasted over four hours or more, and guests could make use of the space to chat, stretch their legs and walk around.“Shakespearean playhouses were melting pots (熔炉) of society, and the seats were arranged according to different people. The poor stood in front of the stage to enjoy the performance, while the rich sat in the comfortable balcony (楼座). The theatre-goers from different social classes across the country gathered outside to eat, drink and talk before a performance,” MOLA said in a speech. “The recent dig is exploring these outside areas, and it is hoped that this ongoing research will make more new objects known to all. All of these will be shown in the exhibition in the near future.”8. What does the underlined word “unveil” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Introduce.B. Rebuild.C. Design.D. Move.9. What can we learn about the remains of the 16-century playhouse?A. They are borrowed from MOLA.B. They will be shown to the public.C. They include Shakespeare’s personal collections.D. They are more valuable than the objects in other museums.10. What’s the purpose of Burbage’s space?A. To let guests put their objects.B. To help guests know more about Shakespeare.C. To provide a place for guests to have a drink.D. To make guests relax themselves during performances.11. What can be inferred according to Paragraph 4?A. New Shakespearean plays will be on at The Theatre.B. Shakespearean playhouses reflect some social class differences.C. People during Shakespeare’s time enjoyed creating interesting plays.D. Shakespearean playhouses offered high- quality services to all the guests.DOne of the best tips for deluxe (豪华的) travel is to focus on personalization. One person’s idea of deluxe travel may be different from another one’s dream vacation. People traveling in a group or a family often have different travel needs compared with singles or couples. Looking for various choices that each person in the traveling party will enjoy often helps make the trip more pleasant and successful.Those traveling with small children or pets should choose deluxe hotels. Far beyond a basic babysitting (照看小孩) or dog walking service, such hotels will offer much more. Pet-friendly deluxe hotels may include a pet spa and special food. Child-friendly hotels often have good children’s activity programs. These may involve fun and educational activities such as nature walks, surfing and other projects.It’s important that children can also find activities for parents very interesting. For families with children, choosing a larger deluxe hotel with children’s programs divided into age-related activities is usually the best. The best deluxe hotels for family will allow parents to participate in any children’s program as well as have couples-themed activities such as a romantic lunch.For couples or singles traveling alone, looking for deluxe hotels that have restaurants, beaches in the front and conveniences they prefer is the key. For some people, cycling or hiking in beautiful mountains with a delicious meal packed along can be perfect. For others, relaxing on a sunny beach is much preferred.Large and deluxe cruise ships (大型游轮) provide a choice to hotels as they tend to have many different types of conveniences on board. The atmosphere on cruise ships is often much more social than that in hotels, with shared dining tables, group games and movie nights. For small deluxe cruise ships, larger rooms, fewer passengers are important benefits of them.12. What can we know about deluxe travel from Paragraph 1?A. It mainly attracts young people.B. It should serve different needs.C. People need expert advice on choosing it.D. Group travel is better than travel for singles.13. According to Paragraph 4, deluxe hotels offer a better chance for people to _________.A. enjoy pop concertsB. have outdoor activitiesC. meet some famous peopleD. participate in educational games14. Who would prefer large and deluxe cruise ship travel?A. A girl enjoying a party atmosphere.B. One couple who like a sunny beach.C. A woman who prefers to stay alone.D. One boy traveling with his two dogs.15. What’s probably the author’s attitude towards deluxe travel?A. Negative.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Favorable.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。
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期末试题及答案解析
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期末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ADuring ancient times, children didn’t have smartphones, iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead, they came up with interesting games to play.★Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty, kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China, and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold. Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet. In 1999, the sport was included in the 6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.★Flying kitesKites have quite a long history. The earliest kites were made of wood, instead of paper. Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite , Weifang kite and Nantong kite, of which each has distinctive features. The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.★Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children, popular around the nation. There are two ways to play: covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄) him or, more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.★Playing diabolosA diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center. By juggling(边抛边接) the diabolo on the rope, the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle. Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game, especially popular in North China. Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产).1.Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?A.To practice their feet.B.To warm themselves.C.To train their skills.D.To relax themselves.2.Which kites are swallow-shaped?A.Weifang kites.B.Tianjin kites.C.Beijing kites.D.Nantong kites.3.Why does playing diabolos make a sound?A.Because the diabolo’s center is empty.B.Because the high-speed spinning diabolo is light.C.Because the diabolo is equipped with a whistle.D.Because ropes’ surface moves against the diabolo’s.BShanghairesidents passing through the city’s eastern Huangpu district in Octobermight have astonished at an unusual sight: a “walking” building. An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground in its entirety and relocated using new technology named the “walking” machine.In the city’s latest effort to preserve historic structures, engineers used nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building. The supports act like robotic legs. They’re split into two groups which in turns rise up and down, imitating the human step. Attached sensors help control how the building moves forward.TheLagenaPrimary School, which weighs 7,600 tons, faced a new challenge — it’s T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or rectangular. Experts and technicians met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the “walking machine”.Over the course of 18 days, the building was rotated 21degrees and moved 62 meters away to its new location. The old school building is set to become a center for heritage protection and cultural protection. The project marks the first time this “walking machine” method has been used inShanghaito relocate a historical building.In recent years,China’s rapid modernization has seen many historic buildingsrazedto clear land for skyscrapers and office buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage loss as a result of destruction across the country.Shanghaihas beenChina’s most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous Bund district and 19th-century “Shikumen” houses in the repaired Xintiandi neighborhood has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a track record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, which was then considered to beShanghai’s most complex relocation project to date.4. How did the primary school get moved?A. By reducing the weight of it.B. By using movable supports.C. By dividing it into several parts.D. By using robotic legs.5. What does the underlined word “razed” probably mean in Paragraph 5?A. Replaced.B. Burnt.C. Protected.D. Destroyed.6. What can we infer about the heritage preservation inChina?A. The use of advanced technology leads to growing concern.B. Shanghai is the pioneer in preserving architectural heritage.C.A number of old buildings have been given new life.D. Many historic buildings will be relocated.7. What is the passage mainly about?A. New preservation campaigns are launched inChina.B. New technology gives new life to historic buildings.C. A building inShanghai“walks” to a new location.D. “Walking machine” makes heritage protection simpler.CThere have been many fine films over the past several years aboutcharacters struggling with Alzheimer’s disease. But few of them have gone as deeply and frighteningly into the corners of adeterioratingmind as The Father,a powerful new drama built around a spellbinding performance from Anthony Hopkins.At this point in his long career,Hopkinswould seem to have exhausted his ability to surprise us, but his work here is nothing short of astonishing. His character, also named Anthony, is 80 years old and has dementia. At the beginning of the movie, his daughter, Anne — played by Olivia Colman — stops by hisLondonapartment to check on him. Her father's condition has taken a turn for the worse, and his temper has become severe enough to send his latest live in nurse packing. Anthony is stubborn and defiant and insists that he can manage on his own. But that's clearly not the case, given his habit of misplacing his things and his inability to remember names and faces, Anne's included.As The Father goes on, the more it becomes clear that it's his own mind that's playing tricks on him. What makes the movie so unsettling is the way it wires us directly into his subjective experience, so that the foundations of the story seem to shift at random from scene to scene. A man suddenly appears in the apartment, claiming to be Anne's husband, which is odd, since just a few moments earlier, Anne seemed to be single. Anne goes out shopping for groceries, but when she returns, she's played not by Olivia Colman but by another actress, Olivia Williams. Even the apartment itself begins to shift. You notice puzzling differences-wasn't there a lamp on that hallway table just a moment ago?The story in The Father may be complicated but it's also heartbreakingly simple: man grows old and loses his memory, and his daughter, after lifetime of love and devotion, must begin the long painful process of saying goodbye.Hopkinsshows us Anthony's struggle to keep his sense about him. It's a striking performance-and an impossible one to forget.8. What does the underlined word “deteriorating” mean in the first paragraph?A. Worsening.B. Narrowing.C. Recovering.D. Improving.9. What do we learn about the character Anthony in the movie?A. He can take care of himselfB. He drives away the nurses.C. He is easy-going and forgetful.D. He lives with his daughter all the time.10. The shift of scenes in the movie is designed to .A. build the dramatic tension in the family.B. show off the well-designed story line.C. frighten the movie-goers with mysterious plot.D. involve the viewers into thedisordered memories.11. What does the author think ofHopkins?A. He has run out of his talent.B. He is not suitable for the roleC. He masterly plays the old man.D. He presents an odd performance.DParents and math teachers regularly asked by their school-aged charges whether math matters inreal life now have an answer.In a study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research this week, Harvard Kennedy School Policy Professor Joshua Goodman took a look at what happened to students whose high schools were required in the 1980s to increase the minimum level of coursework required to graduate. What he found is that the students were more likely to increase the number of math courses they took as a result of the change in standards and that translated into higher earnings down the line.Put simply: About 15 years after they graduated, the high school graduates who went to school when these changes took effect saw their average earnings increase about 10% for every extra year of math coursework. The findings may add fuel to the steady drum of education experts, policy makers and others calling for an increased focus on science and math education.The increase in required math courses didn’t necessarily produce rocket scientists, Goodman notes, because the extra coursework wasn’t at a particularly high level. But becoming familiar with and practicing ly basic math skills allowed high school graduates to pursue and excel at jobs that required some level of computational knowledge, he said.Goodman acknowledged that the earnings boost for the students connected with the up tick （上升）in math education may be dependent on the state of the economy. When Goodman checked in the late 1990s and early 2000s on the earnings of the students who graduated in the late 1985，he found that their earnings increased significantly if they took more math.12. What does Joshua Goodman’s study find?A. High school graduates earn more.B. High school students prefer math.C. Math matters a lot in one’s income.D. Math is a compulsory course in school.13. Why is increase in required math courses useful?A. It produced rocket scientists.B. It makes high school students smarter.C. It meets the requirements of the government.D. It enables high school graduates to get better jobs.14. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To give a warning to policy makers.B. To seek help for high school students’ problems.C. To show the great importance of learning math.D. To tell a struggling history of high school students.15. What could be the best title for the text?A. Efforts matter mostB. Math makes moneyC. Earnings of different graduatesD. Changes of high school courses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。

But still, one day, if you really visit these places, they do something to you. They may not be like what you thought they would be. The Red Square in Moscow is one of these places.I got there in the late evening. After arriving at the Rossiya Hotel, I took a walk on the Red Square. I found the square was in fact not that big, much smaller than I had expected. Maybe it was because I came from Beijing just a couple of weeks before, and I was comparing it with the really huge Tian’anmen Square.One of the following days I visited Lenin’s Mausoleum (列宁墓). As soon as you walk inside the mausoleum, you have to walk down some stairs, where t here is no light. I even didn’t see the Russian security (安保) men standing on the sides, but I knew quickly enough they were there, because when I said to my friends, “It is dark here. I cannot see ...”, they reminded me immediat ely about the “complete silence” rule!Many Russian cities have a Kremlin, but the one in Moscow is always referred to as “the Kremlin”. In present times, inside the Kremlin walls, you can find a historic museum, different traditional churches, Ivan’s clock tower, the current government buildings and other modern buildings. One rule that our guide made clear quickly was that it is not allowed to walk anywhere but on the pavement (人行道)! If you get off the pavement, you will be warned by the security officers. Also when you stand too long in one place, they also tell you to move on.All in all, this trip is very great! It makes me well understand the life of the Russian.4.

The president is glad to receive visitors there.D. It is a combination of Russia’s past and present.7. Where does the text most probably come from?A travel plan. B. A travel journal.C. A book review.D. A news report.CIn agricultural times, Midsummer celebrations in Sweden were held to welcome summertime and the season of harvest. In some areas, people dressed up as “green men”, in ferns, a plant with large leaves and no flowers. They also decorated their houses and farm tools with plants, and raised tall maypoles (五朔节花柱) to dance around, probably as early as the 1500s. In general, Midsummer was a particular time for young people, but it was also celebrated in the industrial communities of central Sweden, where all employees were given a feast of fish and beer. However, it was not until the 1900s that this became the most Swedish of all traditional celebrations.At Midsummer, many people begin their five-week holiday and everyone is in a hurry to get things done during the relatively short summer season. Midsummer Eve is celebrated in the countryside — as always — and on the day before, everyone leaves town, everything is closed and the city streets are suddenly deserted. The country’s main roads, on the other hand, are packed. Queues of cars spread over the distance, and at the end of the road, family and friends wait among trees in full.Frankly, Midsummer is a time for large gatherings. Many Swedes take advantage of Midsummer to fulfil their social duties so that they can enjoy the rest of their holiday in peace. In many cases, the whole family and friends gather to celebrate this traditional high point of the summer.Swedes like the world to be well-ordered, so Midsummer Eve is always on a Friday between 19 and 25 June. People often begin the day by picking flowers and making wreaths (花环) to place on the maypole, which is a key part in the celebrations.A typical Midsummer menu includes different kinds of fish, boiled new potatoes and soured cream. That is often followed by a grilled dish (烤盘) of some kind, and for dessert, it is the first strawberries of summer, with cream. After dinner, many people still want to go out dancing, just like in the old days.8. What is the first paragraph mainly talking about?A. Some interesting traditions in Sweden.B. The history of the Swedish Midsummer.C. The reasons for Swedes’ celebrating the Mid summer.D. Some popular activities among Swedish young people.9. Where would probably be the most crowded places during the Midsummer?A. The towns.B. The city streets.C. The rocky hills.D. The country’s main roads.10. The underlined word “fulfil” in Paragraph 3 could be replaced with “___________”.A. ignoreB. changeC. put offD. carry out11. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about the Swedish Midsummer?A. Decorating the maypole with wreaths is a must-do event.B. Midsummer Eve usually falls on June 20th every year.C. Hot food is never offered during the festival.D. Joining dance parties is less popular now.DA friend of mine lies to his wife all the time. Not big lies. He tells little ones, with the best of intentions (目的). For example, his wife asks him to do something — order baseball tickets or pick up a birthday card during lunch. He forgets to do it. “I’ll tell her it’s done even though I know that it’s not exactly true, because I still plan on getting it done,” he said. “I’m just unwilling to disappoint her and make her mad at me. I feel bad, but it doesn’t feel like a lie, because I know I’ll get it done as soon as possible.”“Do you think I’m wrong?” he asked me.I nodded. In my opinion, there are dangers with white lies.We’ve become used to lying in our society. Our culture accepts white lies and even encourages them. Peoplesometimes tell themselves that white lies are hard to avoid and even valuable. But lies, even white ones, are never harmless.Sometimes one lie leads directly to another. We have to tell a second lie to cover up the first. Telling a white lie is a little like the old Lay’s potato chip slogan: “Betcha can’t eat just one.” And finally you’ll have difficulty in covering your lies. When you fail to do that, others will know you’ve lied.Lying harms the foundation (基础) of trust. Trust is easy to lose. It doesn’t take much to begin to destroy it. Lying — even white lying — causes doubt, and this uncertainty often leads to mistrust. You may feel better in the short term, but lies will weaken trust in the long run.After talking with me, my fri end came to realize even white lies could lead to serious problems and that his “yes” needed to be a “yes”. I’d en courage you to follow that same path. Let your word be your bond (契约). Lies, even white lies, can lead to big problems.12. Why does the author’s friend often lie to his wife?A. He becomes tired of explaining something in detail.B. He is unwilling to make her worry about him.C. He is too lazy to do some housework.D. He wants to make her happy.13. What are Paragraphs 5 and 6 mainly about?A. How lies confuse people.B. Why people continue lying.C. The ways to win others’ trust.D. The negative effects of telling lies.14. What did the author’s friend probably decide to do in the end?A. To be a trusty person anytime.B. To ask for his wife’s forgiveness.C. To improve his communication skills.D. To think twice before making decisions.15. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To point out the importance of friendship.B. To persuade people to avoid telling white lies.C. To encourage people to be kind to their families.D. To show various causes for people telling white lies.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。

2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区外国语学校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AJuanito Estrella has been a housekeeping manager on the US-based large passenger ship Carnival Spirit for 18 months and feels he has found the suitable position in his career(职业). He has always wanted to travel. “I guess I am a really restless spirit.I like traveling, so when the chance came, I jumped at it,” he says.The chance came in the form of a newspaper advertisement for work on cruise ships（游船）. At the time Estrella was the housekeeping manager at a Melbourne hotel. He applied and, after two interviews, a medical check and police clearance, the job was his.Estrella is responsible(负责的)for the cleanliness of the ship, making sure that 160 crew work properly. “I enjoy it because there is no other work-you wake up each day in a different place anda different culture. It’s exciting when you go to the next country and you don’t understand the language,” he says.Estrella likes being busy and getting to know people from all over the world. The 1,000 crew come from 94 countries, and Estrella has learnt Spanish and a little Croatian.But there is adownside. “You cannot get really drunk...because you have safety responsibilities to yourself and others,” he says. “You don’t really think about home.You start to think about home only when you get closer to your vacation and wonder what you’ll be doing.”Life on the ship is anything but cruising. Estrella and his fellows work at least 10 hours a day, seven days a week. He warns the job is not for everybody. “You have to love being busy and be prepared to work every day-and to give up drinking too much alcohol.” In his spare time, if the ship sails into a port, Estrella explores it, otherwise he works out in the crew’s gym, goes on the internet or calls home.1.Which of the following is true?A.He has been a housekeeping manager for 18 months.B.He doesn’t drink wine now.C.He cannot speak a foreign language.D.He used to be a housekeeping manager.2.The underlined word“downside”in paragraph 5 probably means ________ .A.disappointmentB.disadvantageC.failureD.loss3.In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that life on the ship is ________.A.not a tiring journey at allB.just an interesting voyageC.far from a voyage for pleasureD.more than a pleasant travel by seaBA world in which extinct creatures could be brought back to life came a step closer yesterday. Australian scientists have managed to extract a gene from a preserved sample of a Tasmanian tiger and make it active. Thebreakthroughhas left them dreaming that one day they will be able to recreate the animal, which died out more than 70 years ago. And if it can be done with the Tasmanian tiger, it may also be possible to resurrect (复活) creatures that have been extinct for far longer.“There used to be a time when extinction meant forever, but no more, ” said Professor Mike Archer. “We are now able to seriously challenge whether those animals that have gone for ever. What has been achieved is a very important step in bringing back those animals that are extinct. And while I think that technically it is still pretty difficult at the moment, we can now see the possibilities. I’m personally convinced that the Tasmanian tiger will be brought back to life in my lifetime.”The breakthrough came after nine years of experiments by scientists at the University of Melbourne, who extracted a gene from one of several tigers preserved in alcohol in a Melbourne museum. They removed the equivalent gene from a mouse embryo implanted the tiger gene and then watched as the mouse continued to grow normally, suggesting the tiger gene had been activated.Team leader Dr. Andrew Pask said it was the first time DNA from an extinct species had been used to “induce (引起) a functional response in another living organism”.However, the animal’s entire gene structure would have to be revived in the same way to even begin the possibility of bringing the Tasmanian tiger back from the dead.Mick Mooney, a wildlife officer ofthe Tasmanian Government, was worried that such developments could encourage people’s indifference to the protection of endangered species.“If people think that we can bring animals back to life after they’ve gone, they will start saying that there is nothing to worry about because we can fix it up later.”4. What does the underlined word “breakthrough” in the l paragraph refer to?A. Scientists have recreated new animals.B. Scientists have resurrected endangered animal.C. It has turned out that some creatures would not go extinct.D. A tiger gene has been extracted successfully and activated.5. Scientists are carrying out the experiments in order to ________.A. bring extinct animals back to lifeB. transplant the genes of tigers into other animalsC. find out what factors lead to the animals’ extinctionD. find a new way to extract animals’ DNA6. Mike Archer thinks that ________.A. scientists now have no technological difficulty reconnecting extinct animalsB. it’ll be a century or so before a Tasmanian tiger walks on the earth againC. humans have come closer in reconnecting extinct animalsD. reconnecting extinct animals is impossible7. We can learn from Mick Mooncy’s words that_________.A. he thought it unnecessary to worry about endangered animalsB. his opinion is in contrast with that of the Tasmanian GovernmentC. he thought people should be encouraged to protect endangered animalsD. he is concerned that bringing extinct animals back to life may have a negative effectCGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block outdisease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king ofEnglandin 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor inEuropelived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, king ofFrance, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit(优点) of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have movedbeyond science since World War II. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.8. The kings ofFranceandEnglandin the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inC. they considered bathing as cause of skin diseaseD. They believed disease could be spread in public baths9. Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. CuriousB. AfraidC. ApprovingD. Uninterested10. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By following the order of time.B. By making comparison.C. By providing examplesD. By following the order of importance.111. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passages?A. To call attention to the danger of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To present the change of views on dirt.D. To stress the role of dirt.DAt any moment, about half the world’s population is wearing denim（牛仔布）clothes. But few realize tiny bits of denim have been adding up to a surprising amount of pollution in water, as a new study shows.Sam Athey, one of the study’s authors, says, “Even though denim is made of a natural material—cotton, it contains chemicals.” Cotton fibers were treated with many types of chemicals, she notes. Some improve its durability and feel. Others give denim its distinctive blue color1 .Athey and her team washed jeans and found that about 50,000 microfibers came off from each pair per wash. Not all of those fibers make their way into the environment. Wastewater treatment plants catch about 83 to 99 percent ofthem. Catching 99 percent may sound pretty good. But one percent of 50,000 is still 500 fibers per wash.And since every pair of jeans is washed again and again, it still adds up to lots of microfibers entering the water environment.Denim microfibers showed up in sediment（沉淀物）from the Great Lakes. More of these fibers polluted a series of shallow lakesin southern Ontario. They even turned up in sediment from the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada. The team found denim accounted for 12 to 23 percent of microfibers in the sediment. There were other microfibers too. But the team focused on denim because so many people wear jeans.“Everyone wears jeans so they could be our largest input of microfibers into our streams and soils,” Athey says. “An easy way to limit that is by washing our jeans less often.” Athey grew up thinking she should wash her jeans after wearing them every couple of times, but most jean companies recommend washing them no more than once a month. “The solution is not that you shouldn’t wear jeans,” she says. “We need to buy fewer denim clothes and only wash them when they truly need it.”12. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Chemicals are contained in natural cotton.B. Chemicals can make denim color1 ful.C. Chemicals prevent fibers from falling.D. Chemicals can make the life of denim longer.13. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Denim.B. Sediment.C. Microfibers.D. Chemicals.14. What does the author mainly want to tell us through Athey’s words ?A. To avoid wearing jeans.B. To reduce denim consumption.C. To wash jeans more often.D. To limit input in denim production.15. In which section of a magazine might the text be found?A. Science.B. Entertainment.C. Tourism.D. Geography.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。

It can be seenalmost everywhere today. But have you ever wondered who invented it?Whitcomb Judson was an inventor. He had a friend who had a sore back. Judson’s friend couldn’t bend over to tie his shoes. In order to help his friend out, Judson designed what he called a “clasp locker”for him, basically a slide fastener that could be opened and closed with one hand. He patented (取得专利权) the idea in 1891. Even though he started his own company to make the clasp locker, Judson didn’t make his invention famous.The zipper as we know today is a result of the work of a Swedish-American engineer called Gideon Sundback, who worked as head engineer at Judson’s company. Sundback improved on Judson’s design. His design was stronger, faster and more reliable than the former one, and Sundback patented it in 1917，calling it the “separable fastener”. With World War One fully underway, the army used his design on its clothing and equipment for the soldiers，although the invention still hadn’t become popular with the public.However, that all changed in 1923 when theB. F. Goodrich Company decided to use Sundback5s invention on their new rubber boots (靴子）.A leader at the company named them zippers after the noise they made, and the name stuck. As the invention became popular, it caught the attention of fashion designers in France, who used zippers in men trousers.The zipper not only makes it more convenient to fasten clothing, but plastic zippers are also wind-, dust-and water-proof, and they don^ stick or rust (生绣). The invention of plastic zippers also meant they could be created in any color, making them another great tool in the fashion industry. Overall, it simplymakes life easier for everyone, especially for those with disabilities.4.Why did Whitcomb Ju dson create the “clasp locker”？A.To make a friend’s life easier.B.To help out his own company.C.To beat his competitor Sundback.D.To avoid the trouble of tying his shoes.5.What do we know about the “separable fastener”？A.It failed to work very well.B.It gained immediate success then.C.It was one of Whitcomb Judson’s designs.D.It attracted the army’s attention with its advantages.6.What’s implied about the zipper in the last paragraph?A.It is a significant invention.B.It requires complex production work.C.It develops people’s interest in art.D.It changes people’s attitudes to the fashion industry.7.What is the text mainly about?A.The benefits of the zipper.B.The history of the zipper.C.The real inventor of the zipper.D.The different designs of the zipper.CCanadian lynxes (猞猁）are rarely seen and little is known about their distribution. This lack ofinformation has prevented efforts to protect the endangered animal.Canadian lynxes are thought to extend across most of northern North America. Finding them can be like finding a needle in a haystack (大海捞针). A team of scientists have beensetting up cameras in remote forests for years in Montana and Idaho, hoping to discover, among other things, Canadian lynxes. However, they don’t always get the perfect picture. What’s more, it’s often hard to tell if the animal is a lynx or a bobcat just by pictures. Other ways are needed to offer help. Michael Schwartz, director of the Forest Service’s National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservatio n, says, “Now after a snowfall, all we have to do is find something that looks like it could be lynx tracks, get them out of the snow and send them to the lab.”As animals go about their daily lives, they release skin cells, hair, eggs, droppings and other biological materials into their environment. These materials contain trace amounts (微量）of the animal，s DNA. Such genetic traces are called environmental DNA, or eDNA. Advancements in biology have reduced the number of biological materials needed in order to run a genetic analysis over the past decade. What once required blood and hair can now be done with a small part of skin cells, allowing scientists to discover even small amounts of eDNA.Scientists compare eDNA with a database of known DNA to identify the animal. They have made great breakthroughs. However, they began to wonder if the technique could be applied to frozen water and snow; therefore Schwartz and his team tested on animal footprints in the snow. They found using eDNA is a helpful means of searching for lynxes in snow and that it was 10 times more effective and 10 times faster than traditional sampling methods.“Combining eDNA analyses with camera pictures can increase confidence in the existence of rare species, which can be really important to managing those species and understandinghow rare species respond to environmental threats like climate change,” says Justine Smith, an ecologist at the University of California, Berkeley.8.What do the scientists find according to Paragraph 2?A.The c ameras can’t work well in the wild.B.The cameras are often broken by Canadian lynxes.C.Photos have greatly helped them save some wild animals.D.Photos alone can’t exactly prove the existence of Canadian lynxes.9.According to Paragraph 4, the advancements in biology make it possible for scientists to ____________.A.know about animals，daily lives wellB.avoid some dangers during their eDNA researchC.find better ways to help protect endangered animalsD.carry out eDNA research through slight biological materials10.What can we know about the eDNA technique from Paragraph 5?A.It still needs improving on identifying animal footprints.B.It has proved to work better in warm environments.C.It’s effective in finding animals in snowy environments.D.It takes much more time for research than traditional methods.11.What can we infer from Justine Smith’s words in the last paragraph?A.People have some doubts about the eDNA technique.B.We should take immediate measures to protect rare animals.C.Knowing about a nimals’ lives helps people get along with them.D.Knowing the existence of rare animals is significant to animal protection.DThe idea of renting clothes might seem strange to some, but it’s certainly not unheard of. Weddings, formal occasions, a fancy-dress party ... people rent clothes for these occasions all the time. But now some people are also renting clothes for everyday life, like friend gatherings, family trips or anytime they don’t want to be the same, they choose to rent clothes instead of buying them.We’ve talked before about how Fast Fashion is harmful to the environment, and for those who are concerned about the environment, a better way is badly needed. The drive by many fashion designers towards a greener life is towards longer-lasting clothes, which means making clothes that will last for years：Unfortunately, this isn’t always affordable for people, and wearing the same thing over and over isn’t attractive to young people.However, the latest findings suggest that 35% of microplastics in the ocean come from textiles (织物). And it’s shown that by 2050 the fashion industry will use up 25% of the world’s carbon budget (预算). Now 300,000 tonnes of clothes end up being in landfills (垃圾填埋场）each year, with the average American throwing away 40 kilos of used clothing yearly. The damage from such clothes is the end result of a process that damages the environment from the very start.The whole idea behind Fast Fashion is to wear clothes two or three times and then throw them away. This is where renting makes more sense. Many businesses have shown up over the last few years offering customers some kinds of dresses, which wouldonly be voguish for one season. This way, one dress can be rented and worn by dozens of people, stopping each person from buying it themselves.With a recent study showing that half of the young women polled said they felt the need to wear a different look every time they went out, renting clothes might just be the answer to the Fast Fashion problem. Not only can renting clothes be better for the environment, but consumers can also save money, and open up space in their home.12.What is the problem of longer-lasting clothes?A.They are not easy to clean.B.They’re not popular with some customers.C.Fashion designers find it hard to me et customers’ demands.D.Environmentalists think them unfriendly to the environment.13.What does Paragraph 3 aim to show?A.Textiles are hard to break down in the ocean.B.Fast Fashion contributes a lot to environmental problems.C.Americans throw away large amounts of clothes every year.D.The fashion industry wastes plenty of natural energy every year.14.The underlined word “voguish” in Paragraph 4 could be replaced with “__________”.A.fashionableB. colorfulC.expensiveD. different15.What can we conclude from the text?A.People are getting bored with Fast Fashion.B.There are many benefits of renting clothes.C.There are strong arguments for renting clothes.D.People are doubtful about the quality of rental clothes.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。
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期中考试试卷及参考答案
2019-2020学年深圳市龙岗区实验学校中学部高三英语下学期期中考试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AGetting your kid to bed at night is seriously one of the most challenging things you'll ever have to do. Most kids are just so full of energy that they'll tire you out before they're halfway through their store of energy. An easy thing to calm down your child to get into bed is giving in and allowing some iPad screen time. However, it's really not a great idea, just like you thought.Researchers at theArizonaStateUniversityconducted a study with 547 kids between the ages of 7 to 9. Their parents tracked how much screen time the kids were allowed along with their sleep patterns. The study found that kids who did not engage in screen time before bed slept for 23 more minutes every week and also went to sleep about 34 minutes earlier than those playing with iPad. Although that might not seem like so much more time, quality of sleep is vastly important in Children's development.The CDC's (美国疾病控制中心)2018 National Youth Risk Survey outlines that good quality sleep can impact a child's life in many ways, including affecting grades and also weight gain. Students with an "A" average slept for 30 or more minutes per night than those with a "D" or"F" average.A 2018PennsylvaniaStateUniversitystudy showed that children with irregular bedtimes had a higher risk of having increased body weight. Those with consistent and age-appropriate bedtimes when they were 9 years old had a healthier BMI (体质指数)at age 15 than those with irregular bedtimes.Hard as it is, it's really important not to give in and hand over an iPad to your child who is about to go to bed. Just like it's important for adults to go to sleep without any distractions, it's even more important for kids.1. What do the findings of the researchers at theArizonaStateUniversitysuggest?A. More sleep is necessary for children's development.B. Enough sleep helps improve academic performances.C. Screen time before bed leads to later and less sleep.D. Children sleeping irregularly are easy to gain weight.2. What is the text mainly about?A. How is screen time affecting teenagers?B. What are negative effects of irregular bedtimes?C. When should you get your kid to bed at night?D. Why is screen time before bed a bad idea for kids?3. Who is the text intended for?A. Parents.B. Children.C. Teachers.D. Researchers.BUK physicist Isaac Newton once said, ''Nature is pleased with simplicity and nature is no dummy (傻子). '' Indeed, Mother Nature can provide almost everything human beings need if we follow her rules. But if we break the rules, she is likely to be cruel andlash out at us.The outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (新型冠状病毒肺炎, NCP) in China and some other countries at the beginning of this year is an example. According to Xinhua News Agency, the new coronavirus is similar to a virus found in a bat in 2017 and probably has an intermediate host (中间宿主). It's believed that the virus originated from the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, Hubei province, where live wild animals were sold.The Wall Street Journal reported that Dr Peter Daszak, president of the US-based health organization EcoHealth Alliance, said, ''This outbreak is a lesson for us. On a global scale, human population density, wildlife diversity, and land use change are what drive new pandemics (流行病). ''In ancient times, people needed to rely on nature to survive so they held it in awe (敬畏). For example, the American Indians believed that humans are a part of nature and nature is a part of humans. Chinese ancients always pursued the harmony between nature and human beings.However, as human beings master more knowledge and make more advanced tools, people try to change and even conquer nature. They use more land to make buildings, genetically modify (改变) plants, capture some wild and rare animals to suit their own needs. In this process, humans gradually lose contact with nature and even throw it out of balance. For example, cutting a large number of forests means carbon dioxide must build up in the atmosphere and it contributes to global warming.Although we don't know for sure what first caused the NCP outbreak, Brian Lamacraft at Medium said it's time for people to ''reflect on our relationship with our planet'' and ''reconnect with this world and everything that we've been given''. After all, according to US poet Gary Snyder, ''Nature is not the place to visit. It's our home. ''4. What does the phrase ''lash out at'' in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. punishB. controlC. testD. challenge5. What lesson did Daszak think human beings should learn from the NCP outbreak?A. Bats are one of the most dangerous wild animals.B. It's impossible to prevent new pandemics globally.C. We should stop the wildlife trade around the world.D. Humans should live peacefully with nature.6. What is the main idea of Paragraph 5?A. How human beings become their own masters.B. How human activities cause global warming.C. How human beings break the balance of nature.D. How humans use technology to improve their lives.7. What is the author's purpose in writing this article?A. To reflect on the NCP outbreak.B. To explain what led to the NCP outbreak.C. To describe experts' predictions on new pandemics.D. To compare ancient and modern attitudes toward nature.CThese days, football is one of the most popular sports in the world. Given that Neil Armstrong wanted to take a football to the Moon, we could even say that it is also the most popular sport out of this world! The history of the game goes back over two thousand years to Ancient China. It was then known as cuju (kick ball), a game using a ball of animal skins with hair inside. Goals were hung in the air. Football as we know it today started inGreat Britain, where the game was given new rules.That football is such a simple game to play is perhaps the basis of its popularity. It is also a game that is very cheap to play. You don’t need expensive equipment; even the ball doesn’t have to cost much money. All over the world you can see kids playing to their hearts’ content with a ball made of plastic bags.Another factor behind football’s global popularity is the creativity and excitement on the field. It is fun enough to attract millions of people. You do not have to be a fan to recognize the skill of professional players or to feel the excitement of a game ending with a surprising twist.What’s more, football has become one of the best ways for people to communicate: it does not requirewords, but everyone understands it. It breaks down walls and brings people together on and off the field.“Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, ...” said Bill Shankly, the famous footballer and manager. “I can tell you with certainty it is much, much more important than that.” This might sound funny, but one only has to think about the Earth to realize that our planet is shaped like a football.8. What can we know from paragraph one?A. Some people like to play football on the Moon.B. The game called cuju was given new rules today.C. Cuju is different from football as we know it today.D. Many people like playing a ball made of plastic bags.9. According to the author, there are ________ reasons why football became so popular in the world.A. 3B. 4C. 5D. 610. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Football is round.B. Football is more than just a sport.C. Our planet is shaped like a football.D. What Bill Shankly said sounds funny.11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To talk about the history of football.B. To express his/her love of football.C. To explain why football is such a popular game.D. To prove that he/she is a professional football fan.DOlder adults with a better sense of smell may live longer than thosewho have a poor sense of smell, a new study suggests. The study was a project of researchers in theUnited Statesthat was ongoing for over 13 years. They asked nearly 2,300 men and women to identify 12 common smells. All the subjects were from 71 to 82 years of age. The researchers gave the adults scores, from 0 to as high as 12, based on how many smells they identified correctly.During the years of follow-up investigation, over 1,200 of the subjects died. When the study was launched, none of the adults were weak. They could walk a little under half a kilometer, climb 10 steps and independently complete daily activities. In the latest findings, the researchers noted that those with a weak nose were 30 percent more likely to die than people with a good sense of smell. The findings were reported last month in the scientific publication Annals of Internal Medicine.Honglei Chen, a doctor withMichiganStateUniversityinEast Lansing,Michigan, was the lead writer of a report on the study. He said the connection between a poor sense of smell and an increased risk of dying was limited to adults who first reported good-to-excellent health. This suggests that a poor sense of smell is an early and sensitive sign for worsening health before it is recognizable in medical tests. With a poor sense of smell, people are more likely to die of brain and heart diseases, but not of cancer or breathing disorders.The results also suggest that a poor sense of smell may be an early warning for poor health in older age that goesbeyond dementia or other neurodegenerative(神经变性的) diseases. These often signal the beginning of a weakening of the mind or body.12. What do you know about the study mentioned?A. The study involved researchers from the world.B. All the participants were of different ages.C. The study began to be performed about 13 years ago.D. 2 ,300 men and women were young and healthy.13. What was the situation like at the beginning of the study?A. More than 1,200 of the participants passed away.B. Many of the subjects were found with health problems.C.
