【英语】山东省青岛市2020届高三下学期统一质量检测试题山东省青岛市2020届高三下学期统一质量检测英语试题第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

AMovie theaters around the world have closed during the coronations outbreak. Fortunately, there's never been a better time to catch up on classic old movies. Below, read our picks for best travel movies:‘Thelma and Louise'(1991)“Thelma and Louise,” is a tale of female friendship, and the screen is dominated by the film's two lead females. The pals from small-town Arkansas hit the road on a weekend quest in search of fun and freedom from their jobs and their boredom.Filmed in California and Utah, with the best Grand Canyon scenes filmed south of De ad Horse Point State Park, “Thelma and Louise”is a good option if you have never been out Wes t or if you have and eager to return.‘Grand Budapest Hotel' (2014)It's one of the most satisfying films of director Wes Anderson all works. Set in a luxury ski resort in the fictional East European Republic of Zubrowka in the 1930s, the plot is supported by a murder investigation filled with stolen art, prison escapes and a secret concierge (看门人) society.Though the hotel doesn't actually exist, much of the film was shot in the beautiful German town of Goerlitz, famed for itsmedieval streets.‘Harry Pott er and the Sorcerer's Stone'(200)When Harry Potter runs through a column at King's Cross railway station in London to get to Platform 9 3/4, we know it isn't real. And yet we want to visit.The movie's locations are inspired by real places, as graduates of English private schools will tell you: rushing down narrow old streets to visit tea houses and sandwich shops, discovering books that are hundreds of years old.‘The Trip to Italy' (2014)In this film, you're on an extraordinary road trip along with two old friends. The route is from Piedmont via Rome to Amalfi, back to Naples and finally the tony island of Capri. Retracing the footsteps of romantic poets Byron and Shelley, they drive a Mini Cooper through the breathtaking country and alongside stiff seaside cliffs.1. If you are interested in the scenery of American west, which film can you choose to watch?A. Thelma and Louise.B. Grand Budapest Hotel.C. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.D. The Trip to Italy.2. Which place mentioned in the films can't be found in real life?A. Goerlitz.B. Grand Budapest Hotel.C. Capri.D. Dead Horse Point State Park.3. Why does the author write this passage?A To introduce some places to travel.B. To introduce the newly released films.C. To recommend some travel movies to watch.D.To show the attractive scenery mentioned in the films.BIn life，once on a path，we tend to follow it，for better or worse.What's sad is that even if it's the latter，we often accept it anyway because we are so used to the way things are that wed don't even recognize that they could be different This is a phenomenon psychologist call functional fixedness.This classic experiment will give you an idea of how it works and a sense of whether you may have fallen into the same trap: People are given a box of tacks (大头钉) and some matches and asked to find a way to attach a candle to a wall so that it burns properly. Typically, the subjects try tacking the candle to the wall or lighting it to fix it with melted wax. The psychologists had, of course, arranged it so that neither of these obvious approaches would work. The tacks are too short, and the paraffin (石蜡) doesn't stick to the wall. So how can you complete the task? The successful technique is to use the tack boxas a candle-holder. You empty it, tack it to the wall. and stand the candle inside it. To think of that, you have to look beyond the box's usual role as a receptacle just for tacks and re-imagine it serving an entirely new purpose. That is difficult because we all suffer to one degree or another from functional fixedness.The inability to think in new ways affects people in every corner of society. The political theorist Hannah Arendt coined the phrase“frozen thoughts”to de scribe deeply held ideas that we no longer question but should. In Arendt's eyes, the self- content reliance on such accepted “truths”also made people blind to ideas that didn't fit their worldview, even when there was plentyof evidence for them.Frozen t hinking has nothing to do with intelligence, she said,“It can be found in highly intelligent people.”4. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The experiment.B. Functional fixedness.C. The path.D. The thinking.5. Which way is hard to think of to complete the task?A. Tacking the candle to the wall.B. Fixing the candle with melted wax.C. Using the tack box as a candle-holder.D. Lighting the candle to stand it.6. Which of the following statements will Hannah Arendt agree with?A.People should question.B.We should be used to the way things are.C.People shouldn't accept the idea that doesn't fit their worldview.D.The smarter people are，the more open to the new things they are.7.What's the passage mainly about?A.An interesting experimentB.A psychological phenomenon.C.A theory to be proved.D.The opinion of Hannah Arendt.CJapan's biggest airline is betting that the future of travel isn't traveling at all. For the last month, a married couple has beeninteracting with a robot—called an Avatar—that's controlled by their daughter hundreds of miles away. Made by ANA Holdings Inc., it looks like a vacuum cleaner with an iPad attached. But the screen displays the daughter's face as they chat, and its wheels let her move about the house as though she's really there.“Virtual travel” is nothing new,of course.Storytellers, travel writers and artists have been stimulating the senses of armchair tourists for centuries. It's only in recent decades that frequent, safe travel has become available to the non- wealthy.Yet even as the world's middle classes climb out of the armchair and into economy-class seat, there are signs of a post-travel society emerging. Concerns about environmental sustainability cause loss to airlines which release much carbon. And the aging of abundant societies is both restricting physical travel and creating demand for alternative ways to experience the world. For the travel industry, virtual reality offers an attractive response to these trends.Of course, new technologies encourage far-out claims. ANA doesn't plan to start selling Avatars until next year. Profits, too, will probably be difficult to make: By one estimate, the global market for this kind of technology will be worth only about $300 million by 2023. By contrast, ANA's traditional travel business brought in more than $19 billion last year.But if the business value for virtual vacations is still weak, the market for technologies that bridge physical distances between families and coworkers seems likely to only expand. ANA's robots may not replace its airplanes any time soon, but they ll almost certainly be a part of travel's high-tech future.8. Why does the author use the example of a couple interacting with a robot?A. To show the Japanese are crazy about travel.B. To indicate virtual travel begins to enter people's real life.C. To show the couple are very enthusiastic over robots.D. To express the close relationship between the couple and their daughter.9. Which of the following is the possible reason for virtual travel's appearance?A. Storytellers, travel writers and artists have been using it for centuries.B. Frequent and safe travel has become available to the ordinary people.C. People are worried about the air pollution caused by airlines.D. More and more people lose interest in travel.10. What can we learn about Avatars from the last two paragraphs?A. They will be put on the market soon.B. They will bring ANA a lot of money,C. They will replace ANA's airplanes soon.D. They are almost unavoidable in travel's future.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Your Next Travel May Be VirtualB.Easy Travel in the FutureC.Virtual Travel BenefitsD.Air Travel DisappearingDRick Guidotti put aside his career as a fashioned Photographer to turn his lens (镜头) to people living with genetic, physical and behavioral differences.He says what changed his perception of beauty was a chanceencounter with an albino (白化病) girl .“1 was just tired of people tellin g me who was beautiful. Every season that face would change but1 was always told who was beautiful. As an artist, I don't see beauty just on covers of magazines. I see it everywhere. So that kind of was my initial kind of - that opened my eyes a lit tle wid er in the wider.”Guidotti has created Positive Exposure, a not-for-profit organization that uses photography and video to transform public perceptions and promote a world where differences are celebrated. Guidotti and Positive Exposure are featured in a new documentary called On Beauty.One of the women featured in the film is Jayne Waithera.“I never thought I was beautiful because nobody said that to me, but my meeting was my profound moment. I remember that particular day. He took my picture and I felt so good like I felt there s somebody who, really like, loves me and sees me for who I am and who sees me more than my condition.”Rick is traveling from city to city to promote On Beauty. He says his tour is not about money, it's about the message:“As I tra vel from community to community, I'm taking photographs and I'm empowering individuals with a positive sense of who they are. They're seeing beauty in their reflection but I'm also empowering their families and they in turn are empowering their communities as well. All is based on the philosophy of change - how you see, see how you change.”12. Why did Rick change his career?A. Because he couldn't earn enough money from his former career.B. Because the beauty on covers of magazines are not beautiful.C. Because he wanted to create his own company.D. Because his comprehension of beauty changed owing to an albino girl.13. What can we know about Positive Exposure?A. It brings a lot of money for Rick.B. It makes the public more beautiful.C. It welcomes differences in the world.D. It makes photography more popular.14. What does the author want to tell us by mentioning Jayne in Paragraph4?A. Jayne was beautiful indeed.B. Photographs gave Jayne a positive sense of who she was.C. It was unfair nobody discovered Jayne's beauty.D. Jayne's picture was more beautiful than herself.15. What does the author mainly intend to tell us in the last paragraph?A. We should travel frequently.B. Community has a great influence on everyone.C. We should make contributions to our community.D.

It was 1991 and my mother had left behind everything she knew- family, friends and career.Yet within two years, my parents3 marriage had broken down. After one particularly unpleasant fight, my mother left my father, taking me with her. With no family or friends, and in a country where she couldn't even communicate with people, she took me to Chinatown, the only area of Sydney she was familiar with. That night she laid me on a bench in Dixon Street, packing suitcases around us for security (安全) I will never forget the despair in her face at that time.At around 4 am, a group of four young Chinese men noisily exited a club nearby. I remember them falling silent as they saw us. They approached and asked my mother why she was sleeping on the street with such a young child. My mother burst into tears as she told them our story-Without hesitating, they warmed me up, took our suitcases, and drove us to their students＇housing.In the weeks that followed, the men looked after us with a youthful enthusiasm. Being poorstudents living on their own for the first time, they simply knew how to cook in a stupid way.However, they insisted that a child should have homemade meals. They quickly adjusted theirlives around us, buying fresh food, cooking, teasing me to make me laugh, and advising mymother on how to sort out her life.Eventually, my mother reconciled (和解) with my father and we moved back in with him,although they continued to split and make up several times.Gradually we lost touch with the men as we all moved on.

Saint Mark'sSquare is often flooded. Venice' s waterways require repairs. But, by far, the biggest problem isthe rapidly growing number of visitors to the city.So city officials have decided to require all visitors to pay a fee to enter Venice. The moneywill help to pay for cleaning and other services that help to keep the city beautiful.Venice's Mayor Luigi Brugnaro explained the decision to international media during a visit toRome last week. “Veni ce is a wonder of the world and only in this way can it be saved," the mayorsaid. “The fee process will be experimental at first," he added.A one-day visit will cost about $7. City officials have yet to decide when the fee collectionwill begin. The money will be collected by transport companies that bring the tourists to Venice.The city will set up cameras for those arriving in private cars. And there will be fines for thosewho do not pay the fee. Students, some workers and children under the age of six will not have topay. Naturally, anyone born or living in Venice is exempt.City officials hope this will prevent the overcrowding that often comes with large numbers oftourists. Some people living in Venice say they do not believe the fee plan will work. LawyerRoberta Pierabon says it will be impossible to collect the money from everyone who visits the city. Visitors arrive from all sides. She doesnot believe tourists can be controlled and added that she disapproved of the plan. Other Venetians like the idea. They say it will make tourism lessaggressive. Venetians love their city and know it will never stop appealing to visitors. Venice is sospecial, they say, that it belongs to the whole of humanity.8.

Permitted to settle.C. Required not to enter.D. Allowed not to pay.DAustralian adults want to see＂life skills" introduced into school curriculums, includingmoney management, job preparation and domestic tasks. New research from Monash Universityshowed Aussie adults also widely supported the inclusion of technology, coding and artificialintelligence subjects to student curriculums to prepare them for future jobs.Co-author Professor Neil Selwyn, from Monash's new Education Futures, said the surveyresults of more than 2,000 Australians had taken himself and Dr Deana Leahy by surprise. “Thelife skills- -I wasn't expecting that at all," he said. Those quizzed were asked to rate the value of alist of subjects already in the curriculum, but were also given an open space to write what theythink should be included. Professor Selwyn said people called for schools to teach financial skills,budgeting, cooking and doing t axes. “You could argue that these are things people should belearning themselves, or learning from their families," Professor Selwyn said “But we've got to bethinking forward in terms of the skills people will need for jobs and their ways of living"One respondent said schools should introduce a “contemporary life skills" subject: “Acompulsory l-hour a week class on skills needed that parents seem continually unable to teachtheir kids." Suggestions for the class included resume writing, filing tax returns and health claims.Another respondent called for students to be taught general life skills as unfortunately not enoughkids will have parents to actually be bothered to educate them or simply parents don't knowthemselves.Of the subjects, maths was the highest ranked (75.5 percent), followed closely by English(74.8 percent). And while science was the third highest ranked subject (46.2 percent), it was morestrongly supported by those who earned higher wages and were university educated compared tolower income earners.Aspects of school life considered least important were students having fun, learning aboutthings that interested them and being given the opportunity to be creative.12. Why did the adults suggest adding “life skills" to school curriculums?A. To vary school curriculums.B. To enrich students' school life.C. To prepare students for future work and life.D. To save parents the trouble of educating kids.13. What did Professor Selwyn think of the adults' suggestions?A. Reasonable.B. Ridiculous.C. Interesting.D. Impractical.14. What does Paragraph 3 focus on?A. Opinions from the surveyed.B. Differences of school subjects.C. Reasons for the school survey.D. Investigations of the respondents.15. What can we know from the passage?A. The present curriculums are to adults' taste.B. Students' interests have been greatly promoted.C. The parents quizzed think highly of school life.D. Contemporary life skills involve resume writing.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5 分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020年山东省青岛第十七中学高三英语下学期期末考试试卷及参考答案

2020年山东省青岛第十七中学高三英语下学期期末考试试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AYou might not expect it, but cows are a large source of the greenhouse gases that are driving climate change. Cows produce lots of methane by breaking down the grass, Now scientists have shown that the pollution from cows canbe reduced by adding a little seaweed to their food.Scientists first discovered that seaweed could help control methane from cows several years ago. But this work was done in a laboratory, there were many questions about whether the idea could work in real life.In the lab studies, the cows were given quite a bit of seaweed, and they would cause losing weight. That wasn't helpful, since cows are often sold by weight. It also wasn't clear if the seaweed would stop working if it was used for a longer period of time.Now, scientists from the University of California, Davis have answered several of these questions.The researchers studied 21 cows on a farm for about five months. They taught the cows to get their food from inside a special hood, which allowed the scientists to measure the methane that the cows were giving off. This time, they used a much smaller amount of seaweed, which they mixed with the cows' food.The results were surprisingly good. In some cases, the cows produced 82% less methane. The improvement depended on the kind of food the cows were given, but even the worst-polluting cows produced 33% less methane.Over the five months, the scientists didn't see any signs that the cows' stomachs were getting used to the seaweed and starting to produce more methane again.Another surprise came when they looked at the weight of the cows. The cows that were fed seaweed gained just as much weight as the other cows, but they didn't need as much food.But there are still some big problems with the idea of feeding cows seaweed. For one thing, there's notadequateseaweed to feed all of the cows in the world. So farmers would have to figure out a way to grow lots of seaweed.A bigger problem is that for most of their lives, cows live in fields, where they eat the grass. That means there's no chance to feed them seaweed every day. These problems need to be taken seriously if the world isgoing to avoid the worst effects of the climate crisis.Still, it's true that something as simple as feeding cows seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution causing the climate crisis.1. Why did the scientists do the experiment on the farm?A. To control the amount of seaweed.B. To record the weight cows gained.C. To confirm the effect of seaweed in real life.D. To measure the amount of seaweed cows ale.2. The underlined word “adequate” means ________ .A. commonB. specialC. lackingD. enough3. The passage is written to ________ .A. appeal to people not to raise the cowsB. encourage people to plant the seaweedC. remind people of controlling cows' weightD. call on people to take actions to reduce the pollutionBHave you ever noticed that some people can eat what they want and stay in shape, while others carefully watch what they eat and still put on weight? How annoying! However, scientists are beginning to believe that some people get the ability to stay thin from their parents.Scientists say that when some people eat, their bodies will naturally store the excess energy from food as fat. These people gain weight if they eat more than they need each day. Meanwhile, other people eat more than they need but their bodies are able to “burn off” the extra food without making fat, so they rarely have weight problems.To show that this is true, scientists have experimented on laboratory mice. They gave the mice a special diet with a lot of fat. Some mice gained weight while the other mice stayed thin, even though both groups of mice ate the same amount of food and got the same amount of exercise. Scientists concluded that weight gain seemed to be influenced by genetic (基因的) factors. They also believe they have now identified the genes that may cause this tendency. These genes, according to the scientists, get passed down the generations. Armed with this knowledge, they believe it may be possible to develop medicines thatcan target the genes and stop people from gaining weight.The study of weight gain is becoming more important as the numbers of people who are overweight continues to grow. In theUnited States, over seventy percent of the population have weight problems. This means they are at risk of illness such as high blood pressure and heart disease.Current medicines for weight control do not work very well because they can have serious side effects, such as heart problems. However, it takes a long time to develop and thoroughly test new drugs. Therefore, despite this breakthrough in the study of weight-loss drugs, scientists and health professionals all agree that currently the best way to control weight gain is to have a healthy, balanced diet and an active lifestyle with daily exercise. This will not only help people avoid becoming overweight, but also help them stay healthy and energetic.4. According to the scientists, some people ________.A. are able to stay thin because of genetic factorsB. can eat what they want and stay healthy foreverC. usually keep doing exercise to lose their weightD. don’t eat anything every day but still put on weight5. Some people don’t need to worry about weight problems because ________.A. they eat many vegetablesB. they eat less than othersC. they don’t store any energy from food as fatD. they can burn off the extra food without making fat6. What can we learn from the passage?A. Fewer people will have weight problems in the future.B. People with weight problems may suffer from heart trouble.C. We now have good medicine for people with weight problems.D. The result of the experiments on mice and humans are different.7. What does the last paragraph imply?A. Current medicine solve weight problems well.B. We should exercise regularly and eat properly.C. Taking exercise every day may cause heart problems.D. Testing new drugs is hard because of the side effects.CFor years video games have been criticised for making people more antisocial, overweight or depressed. Bui now researchers are finding that video games can actually change us for the better and improve both our body and mind.Games can help to develop physical skills. Pre-school children who played interactive games have beenshown to have improved motor skills, for example they can kick, catch and throw a ball better than children who don’t play video games. A study found that those who played video games were 27 percent faster and made 37 percent fewer errors than those who didn't.Games also benefit a variety of brain functions, including decision-making. People who play action-based games make decisions 25 percent faster than others, according to one study. It was also found that the best gamers can make choices and act on them up to six times a second, four times faster than most people.

The mountain is sacred （神圣的）and entry is only possible on a pre-booked tour, where you are accompanied around by your own personal guide. Plastic bags have been banned in Bhutan since 1999 and in 2004, it became the first country in the world to outlaw tobacco.Costa RicaCosta Rica is a great place if you're looking for adventure, with surfing, volcanoes and other recreational activities. You’ll never get a chance to feel lonely because there's an abundance of exciting adventures to experience! Costa Rica has never seen political unrest; class struggles or revolutions commonly associated with other Latin American Countries. What's more, it doesn't have or need an army because it's such a peaceful country.1. Which place is suitable for travelers short of money?A. Melbourne, Australia.B. Thailand.C. Bhutan.D.

B．A science fiction.C．A travel website. D．A project handbook.In recent years,stressed-out people living in cities have been seeking protection in green spaces for the proven positive impacts on physical and mental health,but the benefits of"blue space"-the sea and coastline,but also rivers,lakes,canals,waterfalls,even fountains-are less well advertised, yet the science has been consistent for at least a decade:being by water is good for body and mind.＂Many of the processes are exactly the same as with green space-with some added benefits," says Dr Mathew White,a senior lecturer at the University of Exeter.White says there are three established pathways by which the presence of water is positively related to health and happiness.First,there are the beneficial environmental factors,such as less polluted air and more sunlight.Second,people who live by water tend to be more physically active. Third-and this is where blue space seems to have an advantage over other natural environments-water has a psychological recovery effect.When you are sailing,surfing or swimming,says White,＂you're really in step with natural forces there."Catherine Kelly is a wellness practitioner who teaches classes in"mindfulness by the sea”.She says the sea has a quality that can make people thoughtful.＂To go to the sea means letting go,"says Kelly."It could be lying on a beach or somebody handing you a cocktail.For somebody else,it could be a wild,empty coast.But there is this really human sense of:'Oh, look,there's the sea-and the shoulders drop."4．Why are blue spaces less popular than green spaces?A．Because green spaces are good to people's health.B．Because little research has been done on blue spaces.C．Because green spaces have more benefits than blue spaces.D．Because the benefits of green spaces are better advertised.5．Where is blue space superior to other natural environments according to White? A．Where there's water,there's fresh air.B．People living near water are healthier.C．Water can help people restore mental health.D．The sea can make people lost in deep thought.6．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．The sea will bring you loneliness.B．The sea will hurt your shoulder.C．The sea will put you at ease.D．The sea will make you feel down.7．What does the author mainly want to tell us?A．People in cities prefer green spaces.B．Blue spaces help both physically and mentally.C．Green spaces have been out of date.D．Ways to keep us healthy.Kevin Randall, a teacher,who teaches biology at Grandville High School,runs the environmental club at the high school,which has around 2,000 students.The club is known as the GHS Green Team,and it aims to raise awareness among students and teachers about sustainability(持续性).It also works on projects to reduce the environmental footprint of the building itself.One of the club's recent projects focused on reducing waste in the schoolcafeteria.Randall said their cafeteria supervisor told them that the school went through 54,000 plastic forks every year.The club applied for a financial help,built recycling centers for the cafeteria,and purchased metal silverware.And now every student uses a durable metal fork or a spoon instead of disposables.(一次性用品),“and that's just one way we're trying to capture the low-hanging fruit,if you will,"Randall said.The efforts of Randall and his students have earned Grandville High School the Michigan Green School certification from the state.In addition to their work reducing waste in the cafeteria, the GHS Green Team has also built a garden with flowers and vegetables on campus,and leads cleanups on site and out in the community.Over the years,Randall and his students have also been working on raising money to install solar panels(太阳能板) on the roof of the high school.Randall said he was motivated to take the lead on environmental issues for his schoolbecause he wanted his students to have someone to turn to in the building who understands what's at stake(利害攸关）when it comes to climate change.＂And I also felt like I needed to do more in my life for my own two children at home," Randall added,"They need to know that their dad is working as hard as he can to reduce the effects of climate change,and to spread the word,and to make sure that other students out there are learning about this just the way they are at home."8．What is the purpose of the GHS Green Team club?A．To inspire students' love for biology.B．To finish the projects assigned by school.C．To prepare students for their future jobs.D．To promote environmental protection.9．What's the result of the project on school cafeteria?A．It has changed the outlook of the cafeteria.B．Students can have more fruits in the cafeteria.C．Plastic forks are no longer used in the cafeteria.D．The school has become famous nationwide.10．What's the fourth paragraph mainly about?A．The classification of the projects.B．The characteristics of the club.C．The activities organized by the club.D．The future of the club.11．What was Randall's aim by doing the work on environmental issues?.A．To educate the young.B．To get material rewards.C．To amuse his children.D．To make himself famous.Hybrid cars are cars that run on both petrol and electricity.They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery and electric motor to provide electric power.There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars,but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol,and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required,for example when going uphill or accelerating.In some hybrid cars the petrolengine turns itself off when not needed,for example when the car has stopped at traffic lights,keeping only the electric engine running.Conventional cars have large engines to cope with driving uphill and accelerating.Most of the time,this high engine capacity is not needed,but the engine continues burning up fuel.Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines,boosted by electric motors when needed,so they use less petrol.Hybrid cars are also lighter and aerodynamically(空气动力学的）designed for greater fuel efficiency.Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of"regenerative braking(刹车）＂。
