In which section of a website can we probably read this text?A. Health.B. Sports.C. Business.D. Tourism.BThat summer, I went to a small and rather remote village of Manitoba’s as a substitute for a sick teacher. It was a very poor village with a few humble wooden houses. There was nothing but the spruce around me. Could I leave a deep impression on the children in just a month? Is a month really worth the effort? I was really doubtful about these two questions.Maybe the children had the same ideas, because I had never seen so depressing, sad, and even bitter facial expressions.I had little experience in teaching, and my age was like that of those children.Most of them had thin eyes, dark skin, and shiny black hair, which indicated they were mixed blood children of French and Indian.At nine o’clock, the classroom was already as hot as a stove. I didn’t know where I should start. Then I called from a list of names, expecting the response. They stood up, and gave me the reply. However, when Yolanda was called, there was no response… Still no response… About 15 seconds later, a voice came from the back of the classroom with the buzzing of lies. “She’s dead. She died last night.”The tone of the child’s voice was astonishing but plain, and perhaps nothing could be more painful than to narrate in that tone. “Ah!” I cried out, not knowing what to say. The children and I looked at each other for a long time and we were silent. I understood that what I had seen from the children’s eyes and faces, which I had thought was the expression of indifference, turned out to be a great pain.“Since Yolanda was your classmate, would you like to see her at four o’clock after school?” There was a smile on the children’s serious little faces. It was a smile, though formal and sad.After four o’clock, I saw that many children were waiting for me at the school gate. There were more than 20 children in total. Some of them walked in front to guide me. The others held me tightly, which almost made me unable to walk. Five or six younger children took my hand and gently led me forward, just like leading a blind guy. I unconsciously remembered those names, and they are still fresh in my memory, including Yolanda.24. The author went to a small remote village to __________.A. have a summer tripB. teach for a short timeC. have a good time with childrenD. achieve more teaching experience25. What does the underlined word “indifference” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Unconcern.B. Dissatisfaction.C. Disagreement.D. Friendliness.26. What can we infer from the story?A. The children were unwilling to see Yolanda after school.B. The children were upset about their mixed blood identity.C. The author was moved by the love of the poor children.D. The author was confident about his teaching at first.CDo you know you can learn to program computers at any age? People might think you need a special mentality to learn computer programming, but anyone can learn. There are even programming languages created for kids. Scratch is a visual programming language developed by MIT. It is designed to teach kids aged 8 and up how to write code. They use easily combined block commands and start programming right away!Today, even small computers can do complex calculations quickly, but they need clear commands in binary(二进制) form. A programming language is a series of commands with special syntax that is converted into binary, the machine language. Different programming languages are used to convert code into binary for different applications, like creating websites or controlling the brakes in your car.There are many different ways to write code, but they all share some basic principles. Once you understand those principles, the sky is the limit. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, started coding when he was 13. He created a simple program to play tic-tac-toe. According to Gates, all you really need to get started is a basic comprehension of addition and subtraction.Programming is now used for everything from creating apps to running household appliances.The demand for programmers is growing. To help people to create their own code, nonprofits like and major companies like Google have created free resources to help teach basic programming. Using the popular game Minecraft of characters from Star Wars, anyone, even kindergarteners, can start learning how code works. But these resources aren’t just for kids, people can start at any age.Maybe you are thinking to yourself, “I’ll never get a job as a programmer. Why should I learn to code?” There are a number of answers to that question. Above all, as technology becomes more and more prevalent, reading and writing code will be a way to understand how the world around you works.Just like reading and writing in any language, the first things you learn will be simple and even crude. But stay diligent, learn a little every day, and soon you will find yourself programming a computer to do things you would never do by hand. Then you might just become a programming convert.27. Even small computers can do complex calculations if they have _________.A. clear commands in the machine languageB. special syntaxesC. a series of commandsD. different applications28. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about __________.A. ways of codingB. success of Bill GatesC. key to writing codeD. content of basic rules29. Which of the following statements is true?A. Those who want to learn to program should have professional knowledge.B. People can learn basic programming with some free resources.C. Reading and writing code is a way to show how you understand the world.D. Learning how to program computers will cost a lot of money.30. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To promote Scratch to kids.B. To discuss the importance of programming.C. To explain how to program a computer.D. To encourage people to learn programming.DJustice is something we all desire, and the hope is that our legal system can be fair. In the past, people often saw injustices taking place that went unpunished. Some of these people got fed up, took matters into their own hands, and became vigilantes(治安员). They played the role of judges, jury and executioners(执行者). Today, the same thing is happening on a much larger scale, and it is known as Internet vigilantism.Internet vigilantism works by first identifying a person who has committed a crime or done something that is considered uncivil.Our modern age that is filled with digital cameras has made injustice easy to record, and the Internet has made it easy to distribute the evidence instantly. This method has been successful in many cases for tracking down people who have committed crimes. It also has been very helpful in keeping those with power in check. Keeping power in check is the upside of distributing evidence only if justice is reached through proper channels.However, there are two sides to Internet vigilantism. When Internet citizens gang up on people for minor crimes or small faults, those who are the focus of the gangs can have their lives ruined. The vigilantes gather information on the Internet and use it to publicly shame the person. The accused person thus loses all his or her rights to privacy and everything about him or her is brought out into the open. Internet vigilantism violates basic human rights to privacy and can cause serious damage to people or their reputations.Another problem is that it also has a negative effect on the friends and family members of the person being shamed. Innocent people with the same name as the accused can also get caught in the cross fire. Worst of all, the person being targeted rarely gets a chance to defend himself or herself.第三部分书面表达（共两节，共32分）第一节阅读表达（共4小题，第40，41题各2分，第42题3分第43题5分，共12分）阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题A Talented Dancer and ActorJamie Bell was 13 when he won the starring role of Billy Eliot in the movie. He was chosen from a talent search of over 2,000 children.Jamie began dancing at the age of six after watching his older sister dance and accompanying her to competitions all over England. Once, while he was waiting for his sister to come on stage, he saw a girl dancing out of step. “I could do better than that,” he told his mother. So his mother bought him tap shoes and sent him off classes.Jamie grew up in a small town in northern England. Many people in Bellingham, where Jamie grew up, did not think ballet was a manly thing to do, so Jamie didn’t tell anyone about it. When his friends asked him out and he had a ballet lesson, he used to say he was going to see his grandmother or he had to go to the doctors. After they found out about his dancing, his close friends accepted it, but some of the other boys at his school teased him and called him names like “ballerina boy” and “girlie boy”. “But most of that gave me more determination to do it, because I wanted to prove to them that ballet wasn’t just for girls; it was for boys as well,” said Jamie who is now 15.Since making Billy Eliot, Jamie has starred in another movie “Who goes there” and has made guest appearances in several television show. He has also acted in pantomimes. For the time being, however, his schoolwork is the most important thing in his life and he is busy studying for several important examinations.40. When did Jamie start dancing?41. What did the people in Bellingham think of ballet?42. Please decided which part of the following statement is false, then underline it and explain why.After finding out about Jamie’s dancing, his friends laughed at him.43.

But how perfect do you think your school is？Imagine you could design your ideal school. What would it be like？What would you be doing？We want to find out what teenagers around the world think. Here is what they say ：My name is Wu Lei. I'm from China. My dream school wouldhave an Olympic-size swimming pool, two football fields anda golf course. It would also have a cinema, a gym, a restaurantand a shopping center. My school has none of these and Ithink there should be more enjoyable things for pupils to dowhile they are studying.My name is Richard. I'm from America. I think it would begreat to have a day off every week, as well as the weekend. Ifthat day was a Friday or a Monday, we would have a longweekend every week. What fun!

However, for Liam Hannon, the summer of 2017 was a bit different. That year, Liam did not want to go to summer camp, so he made a deal with his dad to stay busy and active. He joined a program to give back to the community. Specifically, he was given a task to help homeless people.Liam pointed out to his dad that there were a lot of homeless people just outside their home in Cambridge,Massachusetts. These people were hungry and Liam thought he could do something to lift their spirits. Liam and his clad began making sandwiches. Together, they made 20 lunches that first week, which they then handed out to the homeless people. When the week was over, Liam realized he was not ready to put away his bread knife just yet, so Liam's Lunches of Love was born."No one should be hungry," Liam wrote on his GoFundMe page. He created the online page with his father as a way to help raise money for Lunches of Love. Donations that were received through GoFundMe have enabled Liam to buy a better cart （手推车）and make thousands of additional lunches. Liam also gets help from friends and volunteers to make and deliver the lunches. His friends love drawing pictures and writing encouraging messages on the brown paper bags that the lunches and healthy snacks are packed in. "I've seen people who are feeling really down. But when we hand them a lunch, their faces just light up," says Liam.But he didn't stop there. Liam has another project called Legos （乐高）of Love. People send in their old toys, which are then sorted and given to children who are living at homeless shelters. One thing is certain：This now 12-year-old knows how to pay it forward （让爱传播出去）. His Lunches of Love is an example of how even something as simple as a sandwich can change the world.24.What did Liam Hannon do in the summer holiday of 2017？______A. He went to summer camp.B. He hung out with his friends.C. He helped many homeless people with his father and friends.D. He drew pictures and wrote encouraging messages on the paper bags.25.How did Liam help the children at homeless shelters？______A. By raising money for them.B. By making sandwiches for them.C. By buying old toys for them.D. By creating a project called Legos of Love.26.Liam's story mainly tells us ______ .A. we should ask our friends for helpB. we should enjoy the summer holiday with our familyC. simple help can make a big differenceD. projects make a lot of funCDo you remember your favorite toy growing up？It didn't matter whether it was a dolla stuffed bear or a plastic soldier. That was your favorite toy and you loved it more than anything else in this world. What you probably don't know is how it influenced your education and how, over the years, toys continue to improve the abilities and skills children need to prepare them for life. Toys are quite important in childhood development.All experts agree：children learn by playing and toys are the instruments that allow them to discover the world they live in. And this is precisely why they interact with their surroundings through toys. And toys provide plenty of enjoyment and happiness, both of which help build their self-confidence.Toys get children engaged in physical activity, by exercising their fine and gross motor skills.Whether they are coloring or dressing and undressing a doll, for example, children are using their sense of touch and sight while walkers, tricycles or toy cars strengthen their arms and legs. Toys also help them discover balance and coordination and by being physically active, children avoid becoming fat and adopt a healthy life style.Ever since they are born, toys motivate babies to use their feet and hands in order to discover forms, colors and sounds. Once babies know how to sit and crawl, toys incite them to be on the move. If their favorite toy is out of reach, the baby will use its muscles to try and grab it. Toys boost children's creativity and help them express their emotions. Whether it's through role playing or dolls, children are given the space to imagine familiar situations or invent fantastical worlds that lead kids to abstraction.Often times, adults tend to identify the word toy with "something they sell at the store" but children, on the other hand, see toys are the objects included in their playing. These objects can be something real like a set of keys, a pot and a roll of toilet paper, or things they can transform, such as play dough, paint. These tools all help teach kids how to make decisions as they help spark their imagination while creating a universe they can play in.Aside from the above, toys give them an understanding of the society they live in. Toys invite children to interact, first with adults and then with other children of their age. The simple act of playing with another child challenges them to experience situations where important lessons are to be learned：respect, cooperation and sharing.Did you know that toys were so important in childhood development？27.Children may ______ by playing toys according to the writer.A. tell different thingsB. improve their playing skillsC. discover the worldD. find something real28.Kids may learn how to join society by ______ according to the writer.A. playing toys with another childB. role playingC. driving toy carsD. coloring a piece of paper29.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？______A. Why Are Toys Important in Childhood Development？B. How Many Kinds of Toys Can You Choose for Children？C. How Much Do Your Toys Influence You？D. Why Can Toys Help Teach Kids to Make Decisions？DWhy We Need Each OtherJohn lives alone but is very social. He has many friends with whom he spends a lot of time and sees frequently. However, he feels sad and disappointed because his friendships don't seem to meet his needs.Albert lives alone and has two close friends whom he sees occasionally. When he meets with them, he has a good time talking about current events and sports as well as each other's thoughts and feelings. When he is not at work or in the company of others, Albert does not feel lonely because he spends time engaging in activities that interest and energize him.Generally, loneliness is a negative condition resulting from a state of aloneness. People who desire more interpersonal relationships than they actually have can develop feelings of loneliness. How much social connectedness a person needs influences how much aloneness they can accept.However, it is not the number of social relationships that determines whether people feel lonely. Rather, it is the emotional and cognitive reactions （认知反映）the individual experiences in relation to these connections that play a role in experiencing loneliness. For example, social interactions where an individual feels the following are linked with loneliness：distrust, emotional conflict, lack of social support.John and Albert both live alone and have friends；yet, the one with the more active social life feels lonely. Why？Being alone can result in negative reactions related to loneliness （e.g.，sadness, hopelessness）or it can have positive reactions related to loneliness （e.g.，spiritual and creative growth, restoring one's health and energy）. John's relationships don't seem to provide him with what he needs or wants-enjoyment or meaning-and so he feels very lonely. On the other hand, Albert seems to benefit from the interactions he has with his friends, and also happens to enjoy his time alone. In addition, Albert doesn't seem to want moreinterpersonal connections.Humans, because of necessity, evolved into social beings. Dependence on and cooperation with each other enhanced our ability to survive under such difficult environmental circumstances. Although the survival threats of these circumstances have lessened in today's world, people continue to have a need to connect with others. Indeed, the lack of such connections can lead to many problems, including loneliness.In our advanced digital age, one of the common concerns regarding the increasing emergence of loneliness is how we have become less caring of others.

A young Dutch inventor is trying his best to clean up floating plastic from the PacificOcean. He has developed a floating device （设备）to stop plastic waste moving into rivers before it reaches the high seas.Boyan Slat was just 18 years old when he invented a system for catching waste in the ocean. He also founded an environmental group called The Ocean Cleanup. Its purpose is to develop the system and move it to the right place, then get it ready for use.Last Saturday, the 25-year-old Slat announced the next step in his fight：a floating device that he calls the "Interceptor.'' It removes plastic out of rivers. The device is powered by energy from the sun."We need to close the tap, which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place," Slat said. He added the trash from land to sea is carried mainly through rivers.Experts say 8 million metric tons of waste flow into the ocean each year from rivers,creeks and seaside areas. The plastic endangers fish and other sea living things.Three of the machines have already been moved to Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam. Slat said a fourth is going to the Dominican Republic.Slat said he believes 1，000 rivers are responsible for about 80% of the plastic going into the world's oceans. He said he wants to try to clean them all in the next five years.He added, "This is not going to be easy, but imagine if we do get this done. We could truly make our oceans clean again."Meanwhile Slat asked for support from countries which are interested in cleaning up their rivers. He also wants support from businesses that prepare to help him with money and the operation of the devices.The Interceptor is designed to be safe in rivers. Its nose is shaped to turn away larger floating objects like tree trunks in different direction. The Interceptor works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in the front of the devices. The waste is then carried inside the machine where it is dropped into containers. The interceptor sends a text message to local operators that can come and empty it when it is full.Slat showed how it worked by putting hundreds of yellow rubber ducks into the water atthe launch event in the Dutch city of Rotterdam. The interceptor caught nearly all of them. Jan van Franeker is with the Wageningen Marine Research Institute. He told the The Associated Press （AP ），"I am really happy they finally moved toward the source of the litter. The design, from what I can see, looks pretty good.""Deploying interceptors is even cheaper than deploying nothing at all," Slat noted.How old was Slat when he founded "The Ocean Cleanup"？______When did Slat announce his next step in his fight ？______Where is 8 million metric tons of waste in the ocean from ？______What does Slat want to do in the next five years ？______What do you think of Slat's invention ？______五、书面表达（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）35. 从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。

What would it be like？What would you be doing？We want to find out what teenagers around the world think. Here is what they say：My name is Wu Lei. I'm from China. My dream school wouldhave an Olympic-size swimming pool, two football fields anda golf course. It would also have a cinema, a gym, a restaurantand a shopping center. My school has none of these and Ithink there should be more enjoyable things for pupils to dowhile they are studying.My name is Richard. I'm from America. I think it would begreat to have a day off every week, as well as the weekend. Ifthat day was a Friday or a Monday, we would have a longweekend every week. What fun!

However, for Liam Hannon, the summer of 2017 was a bit different. That year, Liam did not want to go to summer camp, so he made a deal with his dad to stay busy and active. He joined a program to give back to the community. Specifically, he was given a task to help homeless people.Liam pointed out to his dad that there were a lot of homeless people just outside their home in Cambridge,Massachusetts. These people were hungry and Liam thought he could do something to lift their spirits. Liam and his clad began making sandwiches. Together, they made 20 lunches that first week, which they then handed out to the homeless people. When the week was over, Liam realized he was not ready to put away his bread knife just yet, so Liam's Lunches of Love was born."No one should be hungry," Liam wrote on his GoFundMe page. He created the online page with his father as a way to help raise money for Lunches of Love. Donations that were received through GoFundMe have enabled Liam to buy a better cart （手推车）and make thousands of additional lunches. Liam also gets help from friends and volunteers to make and deliver the lunches. His friends love drawing pictures and writing encouraging messages on the brown paper bags that the lunches and healthy snacks are packed in. "I've seen people who are feeling really down. But when we hand them a lunch, their faces just light up," says Liam.But he didn't stop there. Liam has another project called Legos （乐高）of Love. People send in their old toys, which are then sorted and given to children who are living at homeless shelters. One thing is certain：This now 12-year-old knows how to pay it forward （让爱传播出去）. His Lunches of Love is an example of how even something as simple as a sandwich can change the world.24.What did Liam Hannon do in the summer holiday of 2017？______A. He went to summer camp.B. He hung out with his friends.C. He helped many homeless people with his father and friends.D. He drew pictures and wrote encouraging messages on the paper bags.25.How did Liam help the children at homeless shelters？______A. By raising money for them.B. By making sandwiches for them.C. By buying old toys for them.D. By creating a project called Legos of Love.26.Liam's story mainly tells us ______ .A. we should ask our friends for helpB. we should enjoy the summer holiday with our familyC. simple help can make a big differenceD. projects make a lot of funPDo you remember your favorite toy growing up？It didn't matter whether it was a dolla stuffed bear or a plastic soldier. That was your favorite toy and you loved it more than anything else in this world. What you probably don't know is how it influenced your education and how, over the years, toys continue to improve the abilities and skills children need to prepare them for life. Toys are quite important in childhood development.All experts agree：children learn by playing and toys are the instruments that allow them to discover the world they live in. And this is precisely why they interact with their surroundings through toys. And toys provide plenty of enjoyment and happiness, both of which help build their self-confidence.Toys get children engaged in physical activity, by exercising their fine and gross motor skills.Whether they are coloring or dressing and undressing a doll, for example, children are using their sense of touch and sight while walkers, tricycles or toy cars strengthen their arms and legs. Toys also help them discover balance and coordination and by being physically active, children avoid becoming fat and adopt a healthy life style.Ever since they are born, toys motivate babies to use their feet and hands in order to discover forms, colors and sounds. Once babies know how to sit and crawl, toys incite them to be on the move. If their favorite toy is out of reach, the baby will use its muscles to try and grab it. Toys boost children's creativity and help them express their emotions. Whether it's through role playing or dolls, children are given the space to imagine familiar situations or invent fantastical worlds that lead kids to abstraction.Often times, adults tend to identify the word toy with "something they sell at the store" but children, on the other hand, see toys are the objects included in their playing. These objects can be something real like a set of keys, a pot and a roll of toilet paper, or things they can transform, such as play dough, paint. These tools all help teach kids how to make decisions as they help spark their imagination while creating a universe they can play in.Aside from the above, toys give them an understanding of the society they live in. Toys invite children to interact, first with adults and then with other children of their age. The simple act of playing with another child challenges them to experience situations where important lessons are to be learned：respect, cooperation and sharing.Did you know that toys were so important in childhood development？27.Children may ______ by playing toys according to the writer.A. tell different thingsB. improve their playing skillsC. discover the worldD. find something real28.Kids may learn how to join society by ______ according to the writer.A. playing toys with another childB. role playingC. driving toy carsD. coloring a piece of paper29.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？______A. Why Are Toys Important in Childhood Development？B. How Many Kinds of Toys Can You Choose for Children？C. How Much Do Your Toys Influence You？D. Why Can Toys Help Teach Kids to Make Decisions？QWhy We Need Each OtherJohn lives alone but is very social. He has many friends with whom he spends a lot of time and sees frequently. However, he feels sad and disappointed because his friendships don't seem to meet his needs.Albert lives alone and has two close friends whom he sees occasionally. When he meets with them, he has a good time talking about current events and sports as well as each other's thoughts and feelings. When he is not at work or in the company of others, Albert does not feel lonely because he spends time engaging in activities that interest and energize him.Generally, loneliness is a negative condition resulting from a state of aloneness. People who desire more interpersonal relationships than they actually have can develop feelings of loneliness. How much social connectedness a person needs influences how much aloneness they can accept.However, it is not the number of social relationships that determines whether people feel lonely. Rather, it is the emotional and cognitive reactions （认知反映）the individual experiences in relation to these connections that play a role in experiencing loneliness. For example, social interactions where an individual feels the following are linked with loneliness：distrust, emotional conflict, lack of social support.John and Albert both live alone and have friends；yet, the one with the more active social life feels lonely. Why？Being alone can result in negative reactions related to loneliness （e.g.，sadness, hopelessness）or it can have positive reactions related to loneliness （e.g.，spiritual and creative growth, restoring one's health and energy）. John's relationships don't seem to provide him with what he needs or wants-enjoyment or meaning-and so he feels very lonely. On the other hand, Albert seems to benefit from the interactions he has with his friends, and also happens to enjoy his time alone. In addition, Albert doesn't seem to want moreinterpersonal connections.Humans, because of necessity, evolved into social beings. Dependence on and cooperation with each other enhanced our ability to survive under such difficult environmental circumstances. Although the survival threats of these circumstances have lessened in today's world, people continue to have a need to connect with others. Indeed, the lack of such connections can lead to many problems, including loneliness.In our advanced digital age, one of the common concerns regarding the increasing emergence of loneliness is how we have become less caring of others. At one time, our very survival depended on trusting and supportive relationships. Basically, it doesn't matter how technologically experienced we become；emotional connectivity remains a central part of being human. We need each other.30.From the passage, we can know that ______ .A. when being alone, one must have negative reactionB. much social connectedness leads to one's lonelinessC. continuous emotional connections with others are still neededD. technological experiencing has replaced emotional connectivity31.The writer wants to tell us ______ in writing the fourth paragraph.A. what determines whether people feel lonelyB. what emotional and cognitive reaction areC. what are linked with lonelinessD. what we experience in social interactions32.What does the underlined word "enhanced" in Paragraph 6 probably mean？______A. Improved.B. Showed.C. Kept.D. Questioned.33.Why doesn't Albert feel lonely when he's alone？______A. Because he talks about some popular topics with his friends.B. Because he has the same thoughts with his friends.C. Because he spends enough time with his friends.D. Because he benefits from relationships and enjoys his time alone.34. A young Dutch inventor is trying his best to clean up floating plastic from the PacificOcean. He has developed a floating device （设备）to stop plastic waste moving into rivers before it reaches the high seas.Boyan Slat was just 18 years old when he invented a system for catching waste in the ocean. He also founded an environmental group called The Ocean Cleanup. Its purpose is to develop the system and move it to the right place, then get it ready for use.Last Saturday, the 25-year-old Slat announced the next step in his fight：a floating device that he calls the "Interceptor.'' It removes plastic out of rivers. The device is powered by energy from the sun."We need to close the tap, which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place," Slat said. He added the trash from land to sea is carried mainly through rivers.Experts say 8 million metric tons of waste flow into the ocean each year from rivers,creeks and seaside areas. The plastic endangers fish and other sea living things.Three of the machines have already been moved to Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam. Slat said a fourth is going to the Dominican Republic.Slat said he believes 1，000 rivers are responsible for about 80% of the plastic going into the world's oceans. He said he wants to try to clean them all in the next five years.He added, "This is not going to be easy, but imagine if we do get this done. We could truly make our oceans clean again."Meanwhile Slat asked for support from countries which are interested in cleaning up their rivers. He also wants support from businesses that prepare to help him with money and the operation of the devices.The Interceptor is designed to be safe in rivers. Its nose is shaped to turn away larger floating objects like tree trunks in different direction. The Interceptor works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in the front of the devices. The waste is then carried inside the machine where it is dropped into containers. The interceptor sends a text message to local operators that can come and empty it when it is full.Slat showed how it worked by putting hundreds of yellow rubber ducks into the water at the launch event in the Dutch city of Rotterdam.

2021届高三英语一模试题及参考答案
2021 届高三英语一模试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40 分）第一节（共15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分30 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项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.W hy 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.W hich 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.B ecause the diabolo’s center is empty.B.B ecause the high-speed spinning diabolo is light.C.B ecause the diabolo is equipped with a whistle.D.B ecause ropes’ surface moves against the diabolo’s.BWhena person in the United States gets the COVID -19 vaccine ( 疫苗), the person receives a small piece of paper called a “COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card”.It is a piece of paper with the logo of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, and the name and date of the vaccine. Because it is so simple, it could be easy to fake.Many people in theU.S.are still unsure about getting the vaccine. As universities, workplaces and other places are requiring proof of vaccination, some people are now buying fake vaccination cards without getting a shot.The Associated Press reports that students and teachers at universities around theU.S.are worried about fake cards. Sellers are using social media apps like Instagram to advertise fake vaccination cards. The prices range from $25 to $200. The AP notes that many college students seem interested in buying the cards. On the site Reddit, one person wrote, “I need one, too, for college. I refuse to be a guinea pig.”It is reported that more than 700 universities and colleges require proof of vaccination. Most schools simply ask their students to take a photo of their card and send it to a school website. Benjamin Mason Meier is a professor at theUniversityofNorth CarolinaatChapel Hill, UNC. He studies international health policy. He said, unlike some countries, theU.S.is not using a digital system to record vaccine status. He said theU.S.is depending on “aflimsypaper card”, and students have told him they knew of others who had used fake vaccination cards. Rebecca Williams also works at UNC. She is a researcher at the school’s Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention. She said she was not surprised that people were worried about fake vaccination cards. “This is why I think the development of a re liable national digital vaccine passport app is very important,” she said.There is a law that should prevent people from making false vaccination cards. If someone uses the CDC logo without permission, they can be lined and punished by up to five years in prison. The U.S. Department of Justice recently charged a person inCaliforniawith making fake vaccination cards.College students who already have the vaccine are criticizing those who would rather spend money to buy a fake than get a free shot. Maliha Reza is an electrical engineering student atPennsylvaniaStateUniversity, Shecalled those students “dumb”. “I’m angry about that,” she said. “Like, there is more anger than I could describe now.”4.Why do some college students buy fake vaccination cards?A.They are easy to get.B.Many Americans are still uncertain about getting the vaccine.C.Students have an interest in the fake vaccination cards.D.To get a vaccine shot is expensive.5.Which of the following measures can NOT be used to stop the fake cards?A.Having a law that should prevent people from making false vaccination cards.B.Developing a reliable national digital vaccine passport app.ing a digital system to record vaccine status.D.Having all the students take a photo of their vaccination card and send it to the school website.6.What does the underlined word “flimsy” probably mean?A.Weak.B.

But for the British -born actor, the bright lights and attraction ofHollywoodwere a long way away. Supported by his secretary mother and stockbroker father, he decided to study drama during high school. His journey to super star began.Before gaining the international recognition he has now, Cavill tried out for roles in the Harry Potter and Twilight series but failed to get either. He would have to keep waiting for his big chance.Determined as ever, Cavill took any acting jobs he could get his hands on and appeared in several low-budget horror movies and TV shows in hopes of getting noticed. It almost worked. In the early 2000s, at just 22 years old,he narrowly missed out on becoming the new James Bond. Finally, in 2007, his hard work paid off. He won a leading role as the first Duke of Suffolk in the period showThe Tudors. The TV show was very popular and helpedto raise Cavill's popularity inAmerica.In 2011, Cavil landed his breakout role, playing Superman in the DC Extended Universe. He hasn't looked back and has since starred in many hit films, such asMission: Impossible- Fallout.More recently, he stepped back on to the small screen. Since 2019, he has starred in the popular seriesThe Witcher, adapted from the book series and video games of the same name. In the TV show, Cavill played a brave monster hunter named Geralt of Rivia, which was the perfect role for Cavill because he was a fan of the video games. Cavill also got a chance to play a classic English character — master detective Sherlock Holmes — in2020'sEnola Holmes.However, Cavill isn't just a good guy on screen. His charity work also makes him a real -life hero. In 2014, he took part in the Ice Bucket Challenge while wearing his full Superman suit to support the ALS Association. Currently, he is an ambassador for the UK's Royal Marines Charity, which supports war veterans ( 退伍军人). Why does he do it? He love to make people feel good and bring smiles to people' faces. Indeed, Henry Cavill in living proof that you don't always need to wear a cape (斗篷) to act like a hero.8.Why did Cavil act in low-budget film and TV works early in his career?A.He was too polite to refuse.B.He was hoping to get noticed.C.He was encouraged to do so by his parents.D.He was friends with the directors of the projects.9.The role of the monster hunter was the perfect for Cavill because .A.he had experienced hunting monstersB.he had played the same role in a movieC.he knew the writer of the books personallyD.he enjoyed the video games that the show was rooted in10.Which of the following words can best describe Cavill?A. Modest and friendly.B. Determined and kind.C. Talented and faithful.D. Honest and considerate.11.What made Cavill a real-life hero?A.Being a successful actor.B.Playing Superman on screen.C.Devoting to charities.D.Wearing a cape to take part in activities.DFor as long as I can remember, my body and I have shared a relationship of discontent. Growing up, I was skinnier than the other kids and at five I was told I wasn't attractive and that I must put on some weight. But no matter how much I ate, I stayed thin for years until adolescence. Then I started putting on weight almost immediately. I remember feeling happy as I began to fill out. However, my joy didn't last long.I was thirteen when I was first called fat. Friends and neighbours would make jokes on my big size. As I entered my late teens, I had completely lost confidence in my body and, subsequently, in myself. Having failed to live up to conventional beauty standards, I was convinced that if I wanted to be loved, I needed to offer more, doing anything to please everyone around.I entered adulthood thinking I wasn't “enough”—an idea that was seeded not only by the fact that “skinny” is celebrated, but also by the language associated with accounts of losing weight—selfimprovement, discipline—all virtues. Being fat quickly categorizes you as lazy and undisciplined. Consumed by thoughts of the way my body looked, I didn't notice the other ways my body needed attention. I failed to realize, for example, that my period was much heavier and more painful than ever before. Actually I developed a rare disease and later I had two surgeries.I was always made to feel that my weight was the root of a lot of problems in my life; I have learnt this is not true. After a lot of selfreflection and some professional help, I realized I never learnt to like myself. While two decades of selfhatred cannot be undone overnight, I have taken first steps to acceptance.I am now much lighter than before, in body and mind. There are days I find voices on social media saying I am too fat to be loved or to be worthy, but I am learning not to focus on that thought for long. As long as I like myself, just the way I am, opinions at the end of the day are just water off a duck's back.12.What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs?A.She could change her weight at will.B.She had different beauty standards from others.C.She tried to love others to build her confidence.D.She was greatly influenced by others' opinions.13.Why did the author think she wasn't “enough”?A.She was poorly disciplined.B.She failed to celebrate “skinny”．C.She was labelled as lazy for her weight.D.She put on more weight after entering adulthood.14.What caused the author to make a change?A. Her lighter body.B. A troublesome illness.C. Popular beauty standards.D. Others' critical comments.15.What is the best title for the text?A. Beauty matters.B. Opinions vary.C. Worth your weight.D. Beyond your limits.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。
