2020届大连市实验学校高三英语一模试卷及答案解析
2020届大连市实验学校高三英语一模试卷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.BA PhD student inMichigandefended her paper while wearing a skirt madeof rejection letters she received while studying. 29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters — from scholarships, academic journals, and conferences — then folded each one into a fan. She connected them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize rejection and take pride in overcoming it. "The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said. "A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way."Caitlin's adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science atMichiganStateUniversity, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students. Libarkin believes it's important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way. If a student doesn't get the grant or the spot in the academic journal, that's okay. They'll still have learned something in the process.As for Caitlin? Her rejections over the years have led to great things: Since her doctorate, she's won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture inGermany.Currently, she's a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As for what the future holds? "I'm prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way," she joked heartily, "Maybe I'll make a longer skirt."4. What can we learn about Caitlin Kirby's rejection letters?A. She received 17 rejections in total.B. 29 of her rejections were from journals.C. The rejections were connected into a fan.D. She made some rejection letters into a skirt.5. What is Julie Libarkin's attitude towards Caitlin's action?A. Favorable.B. Ambiguous.C. Skeptical.D. Opposed.6. Which of the following words can best describe Catlin?A. Creative and considerate.B. Caring and determined.C. Optimistic and humorous.D. Generous and intelligent.7. Which of the following may Caitlin agree with?A. Hard work pays off.B. Education is the entrance to success.C. Self-respect earns more respect.D. One needs to normalize failures.CSport is not only physically challenging, but can also be mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress canbe physical, emotional, or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also pay attention that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’ performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.8. An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is_____________.A. to make sport less competitiveB. to increase their sense of successC. to reduce their mental stressD. to make sport more challenging9. According to the passage, sport is positive for young people in that_____________.A. it can help them learn more about societyB. it enables them to find faults in themselvesC. it can provide them with valuable experiencesD. it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves10. Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes_____________.A. believing that criticism does good to their early developmentB. without realizing criticism may destroy their selfconfidenceC. in order to make them remember life’s lessonsD. so as to put more pressure on them11. According to the passage parents and coaches should_____________.A. pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportB. help children to win every gameC. train children to cope with stressD. enable children to understand the positive aspect of sportDThefirst thing we notice about new people are their faces. The next time we see these people, we remember them because we remember their faces. This seems like a simple process. However, scientists found that it is not such a simple process. The section of the brain that is responsible for face recognition seems to work differently for different people. Some people have great difficulty remembering and recognizing faces, while others almost never forget a face.Normal babies are born with a natural ability to recognize faces. In fact, their face recognition abilities are much better than their parents. Babies are most highly skilled at face recognition at six months. But by nine months, they lose this skill. By nine months, a baby’s face-recognition skills are about the same as an adult’s.Unfortunately, some people are not born with this ability to recognize faces. The part of the brain that is responsible for face recognition doesn’t work for them. This condition is called face blindness. People with very severe face blindness cannot even recognize their own faces. In fact, people with this condition can sometimes befrightened when they look in the mirror. They don’t recognize their own face, so for a second they are startled when they see this unfamiliar face.Face blindness is not always severe. Scientists believe up to 10 percent of the population may be affected by face blindness to some degree, yet many people with mild face blindness might not even know they have it. They have no reason to know they are different from anyone else until someone points it out. This is similar to people with color1 blindness. Colorblind people can’t see the difference between certain color1 s such as red and green, until someone tells them that green and red are two different color1 s.There is no cure for face blindness. So for the time being, people with face blindness need to find simple techniques to compensate for their problem. They can try to recognize people by their hairstyle, their voice, or their glasses. Hopefully, in the future as scientists learn more about this condition, they may find a cure.12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The way to improve one’s face-recognition skills.B. The simple process of the brain to recognize others’ faces.C. The fact that some people have face-recognition problems.D. The importance of face recognition in human communication.13. When do children have the best face-recognition skills?A. At birth.B. Half a year old.C. Nine months old.D. In adolescence.14. What does the underlined word “startled” in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?A. Depressed.B. Confused.C. Embarrassed.D. Surprised.15. What does the author think of the problem of face blindness?A. People need to take it seriously.B. Certain techniques can make up for it.C. It will be cured in the near future.D. It has the same effect with color1 blindness.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。

A Moving StoryD. My New BookCWith a flock of birds，a group member can often be seen high in the tree acting as a lookout while the rest feed on the ground below．When a predator approaches，the lookout sounds the alarm．To the casual observer，it may appear that the lookout is acting for the good of the greater group，but a new study suggests that the lookout - called a sentinel（哨兵）- may actually be working for itself．While sentinel behavior among groups of birds has been observed，Dr．Roni Ostreiher and Professor Aviad Heifetz recently began researching the sentinel behavior of floaters -birds that have either been cast out or for other reasons decide to go it alone．What they found was that floaters also have similar lookout activities and will sound an alarm call if an enemy approaches．This suggests that while the group benefits from having a lookout，the instinct to act as the lookout is motivated not by the group but by self-preservation．The sentinel may simply be trying to scare away its enemy instead of warning other birds down below．It might be easy to understand that when a floater displays sentinel behavior，the bird is acting for itself．However，birds in groups may have less selfish motives since the birds appear to alternate as lookouts．"There are some adult group members who act as sentinelsmore often than others．As far as we understand，acting as a sentinel is not a duty．Those who sentinel less often are not punished，" Ostreiher said．He also noted that the sentinel's primary purpose is to gather information about its surroundings - the presence of a neighboring group，changes in food sources and even weather - not keeping lookout for approaching enemies．"We do not know what motivates them to stop eating and climb up to a tree branch and start to sentinel，" Ostreiher added．He and Heifetz are now focused on understanding what happens after an alarm call is sounded．8.What is the finding of the study？______A. Birds look out just for their own safety．B. Sentinel behavior is unique to birds．C. Birds have a strong sense of danger．D. Birds react quickly when hearing an alarm．9.What can we infer about a floater？______A. It is often a selfish bird．B. It benefits from other birds．C. It lives and feeds on its own．D. Its duty is to protect other birds．10.What is Ostreiher's opinion on birds' sentinel behavior？______A. It is unnecessary for a floater．B. It is every bird's responsibility．C. Birds seem to watch out in turn．D. It is completely selfless behavior．11.In which part of a newspaper can you find this passage？______A. Life．B. Health．C. Technology．D. Nature．DIn New York，students at 18schools participate in a program called We Future Cycle．Started by Anna Giordano in 2014，it teaches kids to recycle，compost（堆肥），and reduce food waste．Lunch areas at the participating schools are equipped with three clearly marked bins - compost ，recycle and share．While the first two are common in schools，the third is rare，where kids can put their unwanted drinks，fruits，and even untouched sandwiches．Items in the container are available for any student that wants them．Whatever remains at the end of the day is donated to the food bank．Giordano says the three bins have helped reduce the number of trash bags from an average of 22 to just 2!To ensure kids adopt similar habits at home，the non-profit has created extensive curriculum to educate families about the importance of sorting waste into the proper streams of recycling，composting，trash and food to donate They also urge parents to have open conversations with their kids about food choices．But，as we're all aware，kids aren't the only ones that waste food - Adults are equally bad，if not worse! To prevent that，Josh Treuhaft founded Salvage Supper club in 2014．The occasionally organized dinners promise people a tasty multi-course meal for a mere $50USD per person．It is also a plan to save waste because the delicious food is made from vegetables that are past their prime and，therefore，headed for the trash bin．The other catch？Customers have to eat their meals inside a dumpster（大型垃圾装卸车）! The place，of course，is totally clean．It is just a symbolic gesture．In addition to helpingpeople rethink their actions，Treuhaft also helps them do good by donating part of the profits to non-profits devoted to fighting against food waste．12.What is the aim of We Future Cycle？______A. To collect money and food for poor children．B. To educate children to treasure and save food．C. To encourage children to share food with others．D. To inspire children to learn agriculture knowledge．13.Which word can be used to describe We Future Cycle？______A. Successful．B. Official．C. Impractical．D. World-famous．14.What do we know about Salvage Supper club？______A. It is mainly aimed for adults．B. It is founded by Anna Giordano．C. It provides free supper for people．D. It has enjoyed great success in many schools．15.What is the reason for people eating in a dumpster？______A. It is money- saving．B. People like to be unique．C. It can remind people of food waste problem．D. A dumpster is much cleaner than a restaurant．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Ways to teach kindness to kids There is lots of information about teaching children about kindness．(1) Children may or may not listen to what we say，but they commit just about everything we do to memory - for better or worse．The best thing that we can do for our children is to be our best selves．(2) It means paying attention to little opportunities to treat other people with care and respect．Here are several suggestions to get you started：(3) Make a habit of tipping servers 20 percent or more．Talk with your child about how servers are often not paid enough to live well．Make a math lesson of figuring out the tip．Model saying please and thank-you，to teach servers are people not robots．Invite someone who deserves appreciation to dinner - a school crossing guard，a soccer coach，or so on．(4)Have a letter-writing or card-making night，when everyone in the family sends warm wishes to an elderly or sick relative - or strangers who live in a nursing facility in your town．Talk about what makes people tick．(5) When it is over，ask your child what might have been going on．Was the person in a bad mood because his boss yelled at him？Was he impatient because he was worried about a sick friend？Also talk about how the person could have handled the situation better，to teach that it is possible to be kind，even when you are in a bad mood．A．Develop a good habit．B．Tip and talk about it．C．Discuss how to deal with different people．D．This doesn't mean turning your life inside out．E．Have your child help prepare meals and make a thank -you card．F．However，I think that kindness is best taught by example．G．When someone's behavior makes you angry，breathe deeply．16.

Travel．BEmilia Dobek traces her interest in space and the universe back to third grade when she and her father watched a blood moon---a total lunar eclipse （月蚀）---on the roof of their house．Now a seventh-grader at East Prairie Elementary School，Dobek recently won the nationalDiscovery Education Lockheed-Martin Beyond Challenge by designing a space station for travelling to Mars．She says that night watching the lunar eclipse started a strong desire in her that has yet to run out of fuel．So when her teacher Andrea Smeeton received information about the national challenge，Smeeton said she immediately had one student in mind．"I knew she would love the challenge and that she would go way beyond in her search，" Smeeton said．"She immediately started researching bone density （密度）of astronauts and how to have food on Mars．""My design will ensure the safety of the astronauts but also make sure their comfort is out of this world，" Dobek says．Dobek's design calls for building the MSS or Mars Storage Station to put the supplies in．It also includes the SGF or Self-Crowing Farm，and she details how it would work with the elements on Mars．Then there is physical and leisure activity for the astronauts under Dobek's design．A simulation （模拟装置）allows astronauts to choose their exercise machine and virtual （虚拟的）reality environment．Rooms have circular ceilings so astronauts will be able to watch downloaded shows and even see places on Earth，such as their homes．"I want to tell other kids to follow their passions．" Dobek said．"Whatever they want to do they should push for it and always try their best．"5.Dobek first became interested in apace when ______ ．A. she was still a seventh-graderB. she studied at a junior high schoolC. she lived on the top of their houseD. she watched an eclipse of the moon6.Smeeton recommended that Dobek take the challenge because ______ ．A. she knew Dobek liked challenges in lifeB. she had no other students interested in MarsC. Dobek knew how to research bone density of astronautsD. she was sure that Dobek would have outstanding performance7.What does Dobek focus on when designing the space station？______A. The environment on Mars．B. The safety of the supplies．C. The activities for astronauts．D. The comfort of the astronauts．CIt is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socio-economic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system．In an attempt to help the children of poor families，a nationwide program called "Headstart" was started in the US in 1965．A lot of money was poured into it．It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school．But the results have been disappointing ，because the program began too late．Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process．At the end of each day，"Headstart" children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment．To improve the results，another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child's first teachers．This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible startin life．The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status，age and family structure．The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child．The program also gave the parents some guidance，and useful skills on child development．At three，the children involved in the "Missouri" program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations．The results were obvious．The children in the program were more advanced in language development，problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers．They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure．The one factor that was found to affect the child's development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction．That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families．The "Missouri" program compares quite distinctly with the "Headstart" program．Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years，some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness．8.What caused the failure of the "Headstart" program ？______A.

2020届大连市实验学校高三英语一模试卷及参考答案
2020届大连市实验学校高三英语一模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AA 21-year-old female student has become the youngest womanever to be elected as Mayor (市长) after first entering politics to campaign about food.Labor Party (工党) member Rosie Corrigan was elected as Mayor of Selby a market town in North Yorkshire, on Monday. The student’s election was unchallenged to the mayoralty, following a year serving as deputy mayor. Corrigan has just finished her second year studying politics at theUniversityofHull. A political activist since secondary school, lifelong Selby citizen Corrigan has always been ambitious. As a member of the UK Youth Parliament, she co-founded the Selby Youth council, and then went on to run for and win the local council election as a Labour candidate (候选人) aged just 18.Corrigan plan to use her year in office to further encourage political awareness in the youth of Selby. By breaking a political record of being the youngest woman ever elected inUKhistory, Corrigan hopes this will break the misunderstanding of Selby being a sleepy town with old-fashioned views. “It’s an honor to be the Mayor of my lovely hometown,” Corrigan told a newspaper. “I plan on using the year to encourage children and young people to champion their communities.”The politics student’s election has been supported whole heartedly by the politicians she has worked with throughout her early-developing career, including thebackingof former deputy Prime Minister (副首相) John Prescott. Simon Darvill said in an interview, “I hope that the success of Rosie and others like her encourages more young people to get involved in politics and change where they live for the better.”1. Which statement is true according to Paragraph 2?A. Corrigan is new to the political scene of Selby.B. Corrigan became interested in politics in childhood.C. Corrigan has been living in Selby since she was born.D. Corrigan founded the Selby Youth council by herself.2. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. Corrigan plans to further her time in office by at least a year.B. The people of Selby are passive and have out-of-date views.C. Corrigan is the youngest person ever elected inUKhistory.D. Corrigan intends to increase Selby’s youth’spolitical involvement.3. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “backing” in Paragraph 4?A. ApprovalB. AppreciationC. PraiseD. SupportBBeing a teacher is a rewarding career when it comes to changing lives, but it’s obviously one that comes with plenty of stresses and difficulties too.Seeking help for a child who is so obviously in need isn’t easy. Often, you feel ignored by the government. You feel upset that there isn’t anything you could personally do to help a needy and sensitive member of your class.That’s exactly how Chelsea Haley, aged 24 at the time, felt when she met fourth-grade student Jerome Robinson while working for Teach forAmericainLouisianafor the first time.The pair didn’t get off to the best start, with Jerome, the “problem child”, almost drivingChelseafrom teaching. But whenChelseaput her foot down and became determined to work more closely with Jerome, she learned the cause of his rude behavior: a bad home situation.Chelseawas eager to help Jerome, and realized that he needed more than just academic support.By 2016, a year after meeting him, Chelsea had adopted (收养) Jerome and his brother Jace.Adopting a child doesn’t come cheap, andChelseaspent all the money in her bank to see the process through.In her first few years of raising the boys, she lived on credit cards and postponed her student loan.AsChelsealived with her two adopted sons, she worked hard to repay her debts. She took on extra tutoring jobs outside of school hours, moved in with her parents, and even delivered groceries for cash. Along the way, she was learning how to be the best mom to Jerome and Jace, cooking for them and cheering them on at football matches.And now, just five years later,Chelseacan proudly say that she has paid off nearly $50, 000 of debt. Now that she’s finally out of debt,Chelseahas plans to buy a house and save up for the boys’ college education.“It allows me to focus on the boys’ future,” she said. “Saving money for them, and not spending it on my past.”4. What do we know from paragraph 4?A. Jerome’s family was less fortunate.B. The brothers were in the same class.C. When helping Jerome,Chelseafelt hopeless.D.Chelseagot along well with Jerome from the very start.5. What didChelseado to pay off her debts?A. Borrow money from her parents.B. Do part-time jobs.C. Train students to play football.D. Cook for customers.6. How old wasChelseawhen she paid off nearly all of her debts?A. 24.B. 28.C. 29.D. 30.7. Which of the following can best describeChelsea?A. Lucky and lovely.B. Sensitive and ambitious.C. Selfless and determined.D. Warmhearted and strict.CThefirst thing we notice about new people are their faces. The next time we see these people, we remember them because we remember their faces. This seems like a simple process. However, scientists found that it is not such a simple process. The section of the brain that is responsible for face recognition seems to work differently for different people. Some people have great difficulty remembering and recognizing faces, while others almost never forget a face.Normal babies are born with a natural ability to recognize faces. In fact, their face recognition abilities are much better than their parents. Babies are most highly skilled at face recognition at six months. But by nine months, they lose this skill. By nine months, a baby’s face-recognition skills are about the same as an adult’s.Unfortunately, some people are not born with this ability to recognize faces. The part of the brain that is responsible for face recognition doesn’t work for them. This condition is called face blindness. People with very severe face blindness cannot even recognize their own faces. In fact, people with this condition can sometimes be frightened when they look in the mirror. They don’t recognize their own face, so for a second they are startled when they see this unfamiliar face.Face blindness is not always severe. Scientists believe up to 10 percent of the population may be affected by face blindness to some degree, yet many people with mild face blindness might not even know they have it. They have no reason to know they are different from anyone else until someone points it out. This is similar to people with color1 blindness. Colorblind people can’t see the difference between certain color1 s such as red and green, until someone tells them that green and red are two different color1 s.There is no cure for face blindness. So for the time being, people with face blindness need to find simpletechniques to compensate for their problem. They can try to recognize people by their hairstyle, their voice, or their glasses. Hopefully, in the future as scientists learn more about this condition, they may find a cure.8. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The way to improve one’s face-recognition skills.B. The simple process of the brain to recognize others’ faces.C. The fact that some people have face-recognition problems.D. The importance of face recognition in human communication.9. When do children have the best face-recognition skills?A. At birth.B. Half a year old.C. Nine months old.D. In adolescence.10. What does the underlined word “startled” in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?A. Depressed.B. Confused.C. Embarrassed.D. Surprised.11. What does the author think of the problem of face blindness?A. People need to take it seriously.B. Certain techniques can make up for it.C. It will be cured in the near future.D. It has the same effect with color1 blindness.DOver the years, NASA has successfully sent several rovers (飞行器) to Mars. While the science laboratories continue to provide important information on the Red Planet, they keep the space exploration rovers staying closeto the original landing place.To get a more comprehensive (详尽的) view of Mars, the US Space Agency plans to make a small test helicopter with the Mars 2020 Rover, which will be sent off in July 2020.The football-sized “marscopter” weighs about four pounds.It can fly at about ten times the speed of helicopters on Earth. The light weight and fast speed are important for the helicopter to be able to fly in the thin Mars atmosphere, which is about just one percent of that of Earth. “To make it fly in that thin Mars atmosphere, we had to make everything ready, and make it as light as possible while being as strong and powerful as it can possibly be. “Mimi Aung, Mars helicopter project manager, said in a meeting.Upon landing on the Red Planet, the Mars 2020 Rover will find a proper location to send of the helicopter. The helicopter will start with a short climb, no higher than 10 feet, and hover (盘旋) for just 30 seconds beforelanding back on the Mars surface. If all goes well, five more flights of longer distances, for 90 seconds each, will be conducted over the next 30 days. The short journeys will be recorded by a small camera and sent back to the scientists on Earth.If the plan goes on well, the first helicopter to fly in another world, will open up a whole new way to explore Mars. The Mars helicopter's first flight will be a great invention. For those of us whose research is about flight, that would be a wonderful, historic moment.12. To fly in thin Mars atmosphere，we should make the helicopter_______.A. strong and heavyB. heavy and fastC. light and fastD. strong and slow13. How many times will the helicopter fly?A. Three timesB. Four timesC. Five timesD. Six times14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It’s interesting to fly in another world.B. I' s important to fly in another world.C. The plan to fly the helicopter goes on well.D. The helicopters first flight is successful.15. What may be the best title for the passage?A. To send a helicopter to Mars in 2020B. To send a rover to Mars in 2020C. To live in the thin Mars atmosphereD. To send back records to scientists第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020届大连市实验学校高三英语一模试题及答案第一部分阅读（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AStepping Out Into NatureThe classic road trip is more popular than ever. Here are several places to hit the open road.Colo-road TripsThe Colorado Tourism Office has made it easy for road-trippers to explore the state’s 24 Scenic & Historic Byways.A new microsite includes-an interactive map that enables travelers to explore options by region, interest or season.

Just a few years ago, it would have been unusable. But now, those who follow the technology know that it has got considerably better.Writing with your voice raises several interesting questions. How difficult is it actually? Human speech involves a lot more starting and stopping with errors and the need for repairing broken sentences than you may think. Even gifted speakers make mistakes. To turn the spoken word into reasonable writing requires lots of planning. You’ll need some kinds of notes or other organisers to make it work.Another question turning speech into writing raises is the style. How would writing make the change that people speak their writing rather than type? Chances are that it would come up with many more short sentences and more concrete language, which is good. It would probably also rely on prepared phrases a lot more often, which is not available when you are speaking quickly.To confirm this, a column was not written, but dictated (听写). It was composed from brief notes written down for structure only, and it was edited for length, with all of the original errors kept in. Here were the results. The first was that the literal accuracy was extremely high. There weren’t many cases wherethe software had heard one word incorrectly and written down another. But the other result was that the readability of this column was rather bad. Obviously, the blame is not with the technology at all, which turns out to be rather good. Speaking into writing relies on a better human brain than the one we currently possess. Writing is hard. There’s a reason it can’t be done at the speed of speech, in real time.To clarify the matter, this time paragraph breaks were added after the whole writing. Punctuations (标点) had to be spoken aloud, and after a full stop, the first word in the new sentence was capitalized automatically. Some minor punctuation marks were added to make it clearer. To improve accuracy, people “trained” the software beforehand, reading a prewritten passage aloud. Actually it turns out to be more effective.

This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.Let's state clearly: Einstein was a genius. His face is almost the international symbol for genius. But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself. Why is it that some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us? And who are they?In the sciences and arts, those praised as geniuses were most often white men, of European origin. Perhaps this is not a surprise. It's said that history is written by the victors, and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club. When contributions were made by geniuses outside the club—women, or people of a different color1 or belief—they were unacknowledged and rejected by others.A study recently published bySciencefound that as young as age six, girls are less likely than boys to say thatmembers of their gender(性别)are “really, really smart.” Even worse, the study found that girls act on that belief: Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are “really, really smart.” Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up? It doesn't take a genius to know the answer: ly not.Here's the good news. In a wired world with constant global communication, we're all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear. And the more we look, the more we will see that social factors(因素)like gender, race, and class do not determine the appearance of genius. As a writer says, future geniuses come from those with “intelligence, creativity, perseverance(毅力), and simple good fortune, who are able to change the world.”8. Whatdoes the author think of victors' standards for joining the genius club?A. They're unfair.B. They're conservative.C. They're objective.D. They're strict.9. What can we infer about girls from the study inScience?A. They think themselves smart.B. They look up to great thinkers.C. They see gender differences earlier than boys.D. They are likely to be influenced by social beliefs10. Why are more geniuses known to the public?A. Improved global communication.B. Less discrimination against women.C.Acceptance of victors' concepts.D. Changes in people's social positions.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Geniuses Think AlikeB. Genius Takes Many FormsC. Genius and IntelligenceD. Genius and LuckDEver wondered if dogs can learn new words? Yes, say researchers as they have found that talented dogs may have the ability to grasp new words after hearing them only four times.While previous evidence seems to show that most dogs do not learn words, unless eventually very well trained, a few individuals have shown some extraordinary abilities, according to a study published in the journal ScientificReports.“We wanted to know under which conditions the gifted dogs may learn novel words” said researcher xuekw Claudia Fugazza from theEötvösLorándUniversityinHungary. For the study, the team involved two gifted dogs, Whisky and Vicky Nina. The team exposed the dogs to the new words in two different conditions.In the exclusion-based task, presented with seven known toys and one new toy, the dogs were able to select the new toy when presented with a new name. Researchers say this proves that dogs can choose by exclusion when faced with a new word, they selected the only toy which did not have a known name.However, this was not the way they would learn the name of the toy. In fact, when they were presented with one more equally new name to test their ability to recognize the toy by its name, the dogs got totally confused and failed.The other condition, the social one, where the dogs played with their owners who pronounced the name of the toy while playing with the dog, proved to be the successful way to learn the name of the toy, even after hearing it only 4 times. “The rapid learning that we observed seems to equal children’s ability to learn many new words at a fast rate around the age of 18 months,” Fugazza says. “But we do not know whether the learning mechanisms(机制) behind this learning are the same for humans and dogs. ”To test whether most dogs would learn words this way, 20 other dogs were tested in the same condition, but none of them showed any evidence of learning the toy names, confirming that the abilityto learn words rapidly in the absence of formal training is very rare and is only present in a few gifted dogs.12. What was the purpose of the study published in Scientific Reports?A. To better train dogs’ ability to learn new words.B. To further confirm previous evidence about dogs.C. To prove extraordinary memory abilities of gifted dogs.D. To explore favorable conditions for gifted dogs’ new-word learning.13. How did the dogs react when exposed to two new names in the first condition?A. Slow to understand.B. Quick to learn.C. At a loss.D. In a panic.14. What was found about dogs’ new-word learning in the social condition?A. Learning through playing applied to most dogs.B. The social condition helped dogs learn new words.CDogs’ new-word learning turned out to be less effective.D. Dogs shared similar learning mechanisms with children.15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Gifted Dogs Can Learn New Words Rapidly.B. Dogs Identify Newly-named Toys by Exclusion.C. Dogs Can Acquire Vocabulary through Tons of Training.D. Gifted Dogs Have Similar Learning Abilities to Humans.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Travel．BEmilia Dobek traces her interest in space and the universe back to third grade when she and her father watched a blood moon---a total lunar eclipse （月蚀）---on the roof of their house．Now a seventh-grader at East Prairie Elementary School，Dobek recently won the nationalDiscovery Education Lockheed-Martin Beyond Challenge by designing a space station for travelling to Mars．She says that night watching the lunar eclipse started a strong desire in her that has yet to run out of fuel．So when her teacher Andrea Smeeton received information about the national challenge，Smeeton said she immediately had one student in mind．"I knew she would love the challenge and that she would go way beyond in her search，" Smeeton said．"She immediately started researching bone density （密度）of astronauts and how to have food on Mars．""My design will ensure the safety of the astronauts but also make sure their comfort is out of this world，" Dobek says．Dobek's design calls for building the MSS or Mars Storage Station to put the supplies in．It also includes the SGF or Self-Crowing Farm，and she details how it would work with the elements on Mars．Then there is physical and leisure activity for the astronauts under Dobek's design．A simulation （模拟装置）allows astronauts to choose their exercise machine and virtual （虚拟的）reality environment．Rooms have circular ceilings so astronauts will be able to watch downloaded shows and even see places on Earth，such as their homes．"I want to tell other kids to follow their passions．" Dobek said．"Whatever they want to do they should push for it and always try their best．"5.Dobek first became interested in apace when ______ ．A. she was still a seventh-graderB. she studied at a junior high schoolC. she lived on the top of their houseD. she watched an eclipse of the moon6.Smeeton recommended that Dobek take the challenge because ______ ．A. she knew Dobek liked challenges in lifeB. she had no other students interested in MarsC.

The environment on Mars．B. The safety of the supplies．C. The activities for astronauts．D. The comfort of the astronauts．CIt is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socio-economic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system．In an attempt to help the children of poor families，a nationwide program called "Headstart" was started in the US in 1965．A lot of money was poured into it．It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school．But the results have been disappointing ，because the program began too late．Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process．At the end of each day，"Headstart" children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment．To improve the results，another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child's first teachers．This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life．The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and representeddifferent social-economic status，age and family structure．The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child．The program also gave the parents some guidance，and useful skills on child development．At three，the children involved in the "Missouri" program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations．The results were obvious．The children in the program were more advanced in language development，problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers．They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure．The one factor that was found to affect the child's development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction．That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families．The "Missouri" program compares quite distinctly with the "Headstart" program．Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years，some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness．8.What caused the failure of the "Headstart" program ？______A. The large number of poor families．B. The disapproval from children．C. The late start of the program．D. The long period of time．9.What do we know about the "Missouri" program ？______A. It focused on the children's first school teachers．B. It helped the children return to the same home．C. It made the children improved in many aspects．D. It gave the parents advice on their development．10.According to the passage，what is likely to influence children's performance ？______A. The number of family members．B. The parent-child communication．C. The intelligence of their parents．D. The teacher-student relationship．11.How does the author develop the passage ？______A. By listing figures．B. By making comparisons．C. By giving examples．D. By drawing conclusions．DRich as a King William 1，who conquered England some 930 years ago，had wealth，power and an army．Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time，he had nothing like a flush toilet （抽水马桶），paper towels，or riding lawn mower （除草机）．How did he get by？History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me．I have storm windows，Croesus did not．Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great，but he couldn't buy cat food．Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw．Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people，you'd think I'd be content．The trouble is that，like most people，I compare my wealth with that of living person：neighbors，school classmates，famous TV people．The greed I feel toward my friend Howard's new kitchen is not reduced by the fact that no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors，There is really no rising or falling standard of living．Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about．You'd think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood，but no we want a hot bath too．Of course，one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today's standards the things I own are pretty nice．My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers，but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean．Besides，to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future，these bankers' fancy counter tops and my awn worn Formica will seem equally shabby，I can't keep up with my neighbors right now．But just wait．12.What docs the underlined phrase "get by" in the first paragraph mean？______A. Succeed as a king．B. Deal with complains．C. Get some extra money．D. Live in a satisfactory way．13.How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present？______A. 3．B. 4．C. 5．D. 6．14.According to the passage，the author intends to ______ ．A. tell us to be content with lifeB. warn us to live in a simple wayC. leach us to learn lessons from lifeD. encourage us lo struggle for wealth15.What's the author's attitude towards life？______A. Doubtful．B. Optimistic．C. Uncaring．D. Cautions．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）In a study recently published in the journal Neuron，researchers found that super memorizers don，t have unusually large brain regions that allow them to remember a lot of information．(1) Here are a few of their favorite tricks that can help you to remember things in your everyday life．To Remember ：New wordsTechnique ：Change routineIn a study ，a group of students studied a list of words in two separate sessions．Some studied in a messy room and some in a neat space．One group of students spent both sessions in the same room，while the other split the sessions between the two environments．During a test，the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more．(2) That includes the time of day，the music in the background，whether you sit or stand，etc．To Remember ：Your PINTechnique ：Count it outYou could use your birthday ，or your phone number，but identity thieves have a way of figuring those numbers out．(3) Write a four-word sentence，then count the number of letters in each word．For instance，"This is my PIN" =4223．To Remember ：FacesTechnique ：Focus on nosesWhile some super memorizers specialize in associating names with faces，the memory-palace technique doesn't work as well if the image of the face is changed in any way．Rather than focusing on eyes，as most people do，focus on the centre or to the left of a person，s nose．(4) To Remember ：Facts & figuresTechnique ：(5)To learn and remember statistics ，reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one．If your exam is in a week，study today and then again in a day or two．If it，s a month away，study today and then wait a week before your second session．A．Value exams．B．Give yourself time．C．This allows you to take in their whole face．D．Their brain structures are in fact the same as the rest of ours．E．Instead ，try this tip from Dominic ，an eight-time World Memory Champion．F．The theory is that your brain links the words to the environment around you．G．Studies showed that varying other aspects of your environment can also help．16.

2020年大连市第四十八中学高三英语一模试卷及答案
2020年大连市第四十八中学高三英语一模试卷及答案第一部分阅读（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ASheffieldLincoln College of EnglishClasses for foreign students at all levels.3 months, 6 months, 9 months and one year course.Open all year.Small class (at most 12 students).Library, language laboratory and listening center.Accommodation (住宿)with selected families.25 minutes from London.Course fees for English for one year are￡1,380 with reduction for shorter periods of study.1.This passage is probably taken from _______.A.an advertisementB.a noticeC.a posterD.a piece of news2.Who will be accepted by this college?A.Both foreign and native students.B.Only foreign beginners and the advanced.C.Foreign students from beginners to the advanced.D.Only foreign students advanced.3.While you stay there, who will take care of you?A.Your parents.B.Your classmates.C.The school where you study.D.The family you have chosen.BI’ve never been the kind of person to say, “it’s the thought that counts” when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago, when my kids gave me a present thatblew me away.For years now, I’ve been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and I raised our kids. But to me,this house is much more than just a building.In the front room, there’s a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines, marking the progress of my children’s growth. Every growth stage is marked in grey, with each child’s name and the date they were measured. Of all the objects and all the memories, it’s this one thing in a home that’s the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldn’t normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should. Our kids grow in so many ways, but the wall is physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see. Over the years, I’ve talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing.So one day, while I was at work, my childrendecided to do something about it.They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer whose work is about capturing (捕捉) the beautiful things in life, from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns (舞会礼服).She came to our house while I was at work, and over several hours, took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines, little grey fingerprints (手印), and old marks. Somehow, she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly. Afterwards, she put all the photos together into one image, transforming them into a beautiful history of my family.Three weeks later, my children’s wonderful gift made its way to me—a life-size photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents entire lifetimes of love and growth.4.

But he couldn't get a very old mirror, and heconvinced his parents to buy it from mysterious（神秘的）old man. When the mirror arrived home, the boy went to see his reflection in it.

The little girl told him that she had lost her parents.Together the two set off in search of the parents. As the little girl wouldn't stop crying, the boy spent his money buying her sweets to cheer her up.

As it was getting late, he decided to head for home, without being able to play. At home, he went to his room, and noticed a shining light in the corner, the same corner he had left the mirror in.

Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don’t have a yard,” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said.Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof. When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.“What a wonderful garden!” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, “but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside. You just have to be creative!”12. Where did Mrs. Garcia take Maria to one day?A.
