I was in the classrooms, but I wasn’t there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn’t read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldn’t happen again. Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Now I was 41 years old. One day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr. Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you?” he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me,” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy he’d once encouraged.“I’m so glad I had a chance to see you,” I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn’t all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get anothe r Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well,”I added.The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia (诵读困难症). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.24. Why did the author want to hide?A. Because he felt sorry for himself.B. Because he hated being laughed at.C. Because he couldn’t read at all.D. Because he didn’t ha ve a ticket.25. Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?A. Considerate and dutiful.B. Demanding and enthusiastic.C. Emotional and dedicated.D. Friendly and ambitious.26. Why couldn’t the author read before meeti ng Mr.Creech?A. Because his reading age was not long enough.B. Because his parents didn’t teach him how to read.C. Because he was afraid of reading before the class.D. Because he didn’t have inn er driving force to learn to read.27. What can we infer from the passage?A. Mr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.B. The author had become a published author and an active speaker.C. Dyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.D. The author was grateful to Mr. Creech.CA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It’s extremely important for us to think abo ut this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficul ty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically, it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are r eally what drives us on a day to day basis.”28. Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met while making the robotic fly?A. They did not have sufficient fund.B. No ready-made components were available.C. There was no model in their mind.D. It was hard for them to assemble the components.29. What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4?A. The robotic fly has been put into wide application.B. The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system.C. Information from many sources can be collected by the robotic fly.D. The robotic fly can just fly in limited areas at present.30. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Wood’s design can replace animals in some experiments.B. Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C. The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.D. There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.31. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Development of Robotic FlyB. Robotic Fly Promotes Engineering ScienceC. Harvard’s Efforts in Making Robotic FlyD. Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life InsectDThe joy of absenceHow some companies fight the curse of presenteeism (出勤主义)?RONALD REAGAN famously joked that “it’s true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?” Beyond a certain level, extra effort seems to be self-defeating. Studies suggest that, after around 50 hours a week, employee productivity declines sharply.But that doesn’t stop some managers from demanding that workers stay chained to their desk for long periods. Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba, the Chinese e-commerce group, recently praised the 996 model, where employees work from 9a.m. to 9p.m., six days a week, as a “great opportunity”. Yet presenteeism is the curse of the modern office worker.There will be days when you do not have much to do; perhaps because you are waiting for someone else in a different department, or a different company, to respond to a request. As the clock ticks past 5p.m., there may be no purpose in staying at your desk. But you can see your boss hard at work and, more importantly, they can see you. So you make an effort to look busy.The consequence is often wasted effort. Rather than work hard, you slave to make bosses think that you are. But presenteeism has more serious consequences. As well as reduced productivity, this can mean greater medical expenses for the employer. According to a study in th e Journal of Occupation and Environmental Medicine, these costs can be six times higher for employers than the costs of absenteeism among workers.None of this is to say that employers are not called to expect workers to be in the office for a proper period of time. Surely there will be a need for some (preferably short) meetings. Dealing with colleagues face-to-face creates a feeling of togetherness, allows for a useful exchange of ideas and enables workers to have a better sense of their mutual needs.Turning an office into a prison, with inmates (囚犯) allowed home for the evenings, does nothing for creativity that is increasingly demanded of office workers as routine tasks are automated. To be productive you need presence of mind, not being present in the flesh.32. Why does the author mention Ronald Reagan’s joke in Para. 1?A. To encourage people to grasp the chance to work hard.B. To show that hard work is harmless.C. To introduce the topic of the passage.D. To praise Ronald Reagan’s accomplished joking skil ls.33. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence?A. Extra effort causes problems or difficulties.B. With extra effort, we can defeat anybody.C. We should say no to extra effort.D. Extra effort isn’t necessarily helpful.34. According to the passage, which of the following situation is helpful to the company?A. Your team has a ten-minute meeting after work for an urgent problem.B. You don’t go home until 7:30 p.m. because your boss is in his office and he can see you.C. The manager tours the engineering department at 7:30 p.m. to check people are at their desks.D. You attend the office even when you suffer lower back pain.35. Whic h of the following opinions agrees with the passage?A. Some managers expect workers tie themselves up with a chain to their desks.B. Reduced productivity can mean greater medical expenses for the employer.C. With growing demand of creativity on office workers, a prison-like office is not a wise option.D. Presence of mind guarantees your productivity.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10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。

The driver didn't speak much English, but understood, " Belapur Railway Station. " I had my tabla, a traditional drum from India, my suitcase with my clothes and other essentials. The feeling of flying by cars inthis little machine is: as if you are inside a box with tiny wheels, dashing through disorderly traffic.I arrived at the station safely, and took a heavy breath as I unloaded my baggage before the ticket office. It was the first time that I had taken a local train to Tilak Nagar, where I was going to learn traditional vocal music. Standing in line, I counted at least 20 people staring at me. I bought my ticket, which was only 55 cents for a 20-minute train ride. The prices still blow me away.When the train came after 15 iminutes or so, I got on at full speed, as the train only stopped for a few seconds. The locals again stared at me. This was a train especially for local transport. After a while, a young man asked me if he could talk to me, He wanted to know if I was in a band. I stated no, but I love to play the tabla. Through the conversation I knew he was a student of engineering with his exams being tomorrow, I wished him good luck for the exams sincerely, as I knew what it means to Indian students lo get good marks on their exams. If students do not get good enough scores, job opportunities will be few in a highly competitive environment.The student I met helped me unload my luggage as the train reached Tilak Nagar Station.

The study was a project of researchers in the United States that was ongoing for over 13 years. They asked nearly 2,300 men and women to identify 12 common smells. All the subjects were from 71 to 82 years of age. The researchers gave the adults scores, from 0 to as high as 12, based on how many smells they identified correctly. During the years of follow-up investigation, over 1,200 of the subjects died. When the study was launched, none of the adults were weak. They could walk a little under half a kilometer, climb 10 steps and independently complete daily activities. In the latest findings, theresearchers noted that those with a weak nose were 30 percent more likely to die than people with a good sense of smell. The findings were reported last month in the scientific publication Annals of Internal Medicine.Honglei Chen, a doctor with Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan, was the lead writer of a report on the study. He said the connection between a poor sense of smell and an increased risk of dying was limited to adults who first reported good-to-excellent health. This suggests that a poor sense of smell is an early and sensitive sign for worsening health before it is recognizable in medical tests. With a poor sense of smell, people are more likely to die of brain and heart diseases, but not of cancer or breathing disorders.The results also suggest that a poor sense of smell may be an early warning for poor health in older age that goes beyond dementia or other neurodegenerative(神经变性的)diseases. These often signal the beginning of a weakening of the mind or body.(1)What do you know about the study mentioned?A The study involved researchers from the world.B All the participants were of different ages.C The study began to be performed about 13 years ago.D 2,300 men and women were young and healthy.(2)What was the situation like at the beginning of the study?A More than 1,200 of the participants passed away.B Many of the subjects were found with health problems.C All the subjects were independent of others whenwalking. D One third of the participants had a poor smell sense.(3)What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A People with a poor sense of smell have heart diseases.B You should be careful with your health if you smell poorly.C People with a poor sense of smell won't suffer from cancer.D Most of the elder people may have the dementia disease.(4)Which is the best title for the passage?A Strong Sense of Smell May Be Linked to Longer LifeB Old People Tend to Have a Poor Sense of SmellC A Number of Factors Result in Longer LifeD Being III Means Losing the Sense of Smell4.DThe team of researchers from the University of Lincoln, UK, is designing and building an app to help farmers in hot climates identify and record the spread of locusts(蝗虫)on their fields.By recognizing locusts through the smartphone's camera, the app will be able to identify the stage of the insect's growth and record its location. This information can then be utilized so that the farmers can use pesticides(杀虫剂)more accurately in the early stages of their life time, greatly reducing the amount of crop damage.This approach could also reduce remaining pesticide levels, leading to increased food safety while maintaining food security and protecting nearby water systems."Each year, approximately 18 million hectares of fields are damaged by locusts, influencinghugely farmers and their productivity," explains Dr. Bashir Al-Diri from the School of Computer Science at the University of Lincoln. "Their monitoring techniques currently rely on field surveys by people through digging insect eggs, but this information only helps farmers to make long-term forecasting decisions and can delay effective management measures. By digitally recording the exact number, age and location of locusts, we hope this new app will put more knowledge and more power into the hands of the farmers."Dr. Bashir Al-Diri and his team of computer scientists work with the Lincoln Institute for Agri-Food Technology at the University of Lincoln, aiming to support and improve productivity, efficiency and farming through research, education and new technology.With advanced technology, the developers hope that the app will also be used for a wide range in the future to capture and document information about the natural world. For example, it could easily be adapted to help individuals identify plant diseases or to digitally capture the number and type of birds and wildlife in specific locations as part of national and international surveys.What do we know about the app mentioned in the passage?A It has helped farmers record the spread of locusts.B It will be of great use for farmers in hot climates.C It may cost the farmers more than they expect.D It will remind farmers of what the locusts look like.Which can replace the underlined word "utilized" in the passage?A Accessed.B Controlled.C Arranged.D Progressed.What can we know according to Dr. Bashir Al-Diri?A Farmers don't know how to deal with locusts.B Their techniques can be used to dig insect eggs.C Farmers suffer greatly because of locusts.D Some steps must be taken before using the app.What is the purpose of Dr. Bashir Al-Diri and his team?A To check if the app is useful in killing locusts.B To educate farmers on how to protect themselves.C To assist in raising the agricultural production level.D To direct farmers to change their farming methods.二、七选五5.

And even before their first birthdays,this research shows,babies distinguish between"people like me"and all others.For those of us who like to think that prejudice comes with age,this may be disappointing news.Buta new study,published Monday in the journal PNAS,offers a fresh perspective on babies' remarkableability to distinguish between"in-group"members("people like me")and out-group members("others")at such a young age.Babies are all about learning new stuff,the new research concludes. And they won't waste aminute paying attention to someone they think unlikely to deliver the goods.The new research shows that,given the choice of listening to someone speaking in their nativelanguage and someone speaking another tongue, 11-month-old babies will consistently ignore the foreign speaker and pay attention to the person speaking the language that's familiar to them. At the moment that those babies made such decisions,researchers detected a distinctive pattern in their brainactivity-a pattern consistently seen in babies expecting to learn something new.Yes,the babies were making"us"versus"them"Judgments which,research has found,become ever more generalized and powerful as we age. But they appeared to be making those selective judgments,the research found,in a bid to maximize the information they lake in,not to exclude the “other”。

Lipkin says.4.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT the potential symptom of therescued team members______A. Lacking body waterB. Unbalanced nutritionC. Pain in the head and musclesD. Adequate oxygen5.The underlined word "submerged" in paragraph 3 means ______ .A. under the waterB. wild and dangerousC. with animalsD. bat-associated6.Which is true about the caves and the trapped people______A. Jonathan Epstein thought it possible for the team members to be attacked by bats in thefully-flooded cave.B. Lipkin argued bats were not able to get deep into the narrow cave where the kids weretrapped.C. Lipkin said the victims might be infected when their body were exposed to bacterialwater during the rescue.D. Lipkin believed the most important issue for the cave-trapped teenagers was infectiousbacteria examination.7.What is the text type of the passage?______A. An academic essay about bats.B. A newspaper article.C. A medical magazine.D. A Thai website about sports.CSo many of us hold on to little resentments (怨恨)that may have come from an argument,a misunderstanding,or some other painful event.Stubbornly,we wait for someone else to reach out to us-believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.An acquaintance of mine,whose health isn't very good,recently told me that she hadn't spoken to her son in almost three years.She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn't speak to him again unless he called first.When I suggested that she be the one to reach out,she resisted initially and said,"I can't do that.He's the one who should apologize." She was literally willing to die before reaching outto her only son.After a little gentle encouragement,however,she did decide to be the first one to reach out.To her amazement,her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own.As is usually the case when someone takes the chance and reaches out,everyone wins.Whenever we hold on to our anger,we turn "small stuff" into really "big stuff" in our minds.We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness.They are not.If you want to be a more peaceful person,you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy.The way to be happy is to let go,and reach out.Let other people be right.This doesn't mean that you're wrong.Everything will be fine.You'll experience the peace of letting go,as well as the joy of letting others be right.You'll also notice that,as you reach out and let others be "right," they will become less defensive and more loving toward you.They might even reach back.But if for some reason they don't,that's okay too.You'll have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world,and certainly you'll be more peaceful yourself.8.The underlined word " rekindle" in Paragraph 1 probably means " ______ ".A. developB. recoverC. acceptD. replace9.According to the passage,the author's friend never spoke to her son for three yearsbecause ______ .A. she had got an argument with her husbandB. she had disagreed about her son's marriageC. she had got an argument about her daughter-in-lawD. she had disliked her son's wife for many years10.Which of the following is NOT the reason for people to be unwilling to apologize first______A. People believe that they are right.B. People always wait for others to offer an apology first.C. People consider the position more important than happiness.D. People want to get an inner satisfaction.11.The purpose of the passage is to ______ .A. instruct the readers how to apologizeB. teach the readers how to gain inner peaceC. tell the readers to reach out first when there are painful eventsD. inform the readers the importance of being forgivingDA new technology is going to ripe,one that could transform our daily lives,help to form new industries,even remove world economic powers from their present positions.Unlike the wave of industrialization that began in the West and spread later to the rest of the world,the new developments are taking place in research labs all over the globe-and Asians are in the forefront.Physicists are creating a new class of materials that display an amazing property unforeseen even two years ago-superconductivity (超导体技术).Used today only in specialized equipment,super conductors have the potential to radically change most of the electrical and electronic appliances found in the home,making them smaller,more powerful and efficient.They could free our cities of pollution by replacing petrol and diesel (柴油)vehicles with electric cars,and cut the cost of electricity.The new materials do something that even the best of conductors such as copper and silvercannot-they do away with all electrical resistance.The significances for energy storage are great.The technology is in its early stage,still accessible to countries that decide to invest brains and money.For 75 years it had remained little more than a scientific curiosity with limited practical use because the phenomenon occurred only at extremely low temperatures.It was first observed in 1911 by a Dutch scientist named Heike Kamerlingh Onnes,who cooled mercury (水银)to temperatures below -269℃ with liquid helium (氦).Then in January last year,two IBM scientists,K.Alex Muller and J.George Bednorz,found a metal oxide ceramic (氧化陶瓷)that superconducted at -243℃.Their report went largely unnoticed until last December,when it was confirmed at a scientific meeting in Boston.Today Japan,India,China and other Asian countries all have their share of experts who spend their days and nights in labs,acting as midwives (助产士)to a new technology.12.As is indicated in the passage,the technology of superconductivity ______ .A. has already been developedB. is still under developmentC. will be used only in specialized equipmentD. will be used in daily lives in a few years13.The new technology differs from the others in that ______ .A. it began in the East and spread later to the rest of the worldB. it began in the West and spread later to the rest of the worldC. it is being cultivated in research labs around the worldD. it is accessible to physicists who are intelligent and rich14.From the passage,we may conclude that ______ .A. Asian scientists gain the lead in the growth of the new technologyB. Dutch scientists kept reporting new findings for the last 75 yearsC. IBM scientists' report receive immediate attention all over the worldD. the West was astonished at the new technology developed by the Asians15.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage______A. The Prospect of a New TechnologyB. Superconductivity: A New TechnologyC. A New Technology:The Key to Change the Way of Our LivesD. A New Technology: A Joint Effort of Many Countries二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Changing your life can come in small,easy steps.You can transform yourself and live a better life by making positive changes along the way.Here are some choices that will lead to your transformation.Choose to change bad habitsSome bad habits seem to stick around without us even realizing it.(1) You can overcome them,find better alternatives,and get through your struggle to become a better you!

2019-2020学年广东省中山市第一中学高三英语第一次联考试题及答案解析
2019-2020学年广东省中山市第一中学高三英语第一次联考试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项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. Travelers seeking inspiration can also access insider tips and side-trip suggestions for historic attractions, active adventures and highlight cultural opportunities.TheBeartooth Highway.Visitors of this extraordinary byway experience the grand sights ofMontana,WyomingandYellowstonePark. The windy 68-mile stretch introduces road explorers to one of the most diverse ecosystems accessible by auto. Breathtakingly beautiful, this All-American Road showcases wide, high alpine plateaus(高原), painted with ice blue lakes, forested valleys, waterfalls and wildlife.SewardHighway,AlaskaThe road that connectsAnchorageto Seward is 127-mile treasure of natural beauty, wildlife and stories of adventure.

Hear tales of shipwrecks(海难)and of the difficult and lonely life led by those who kept the lights burning brightly. If possible, visit theMaineLighthouseMuseum. where artifacts and hands-on exhibits for children provide an appealing break.1.What makes Colo-road Tips special?A.Good bear stories.B.A scenic beach.C.Hands-on exhibits.D.An interactive map.2.Where can you explore state of gold miners?A.Colorado.B.Montana.C.Alaska.D.Maine3.Which place is suitable for a family with children?A.Colo-road Trips.B.TheBeartooth Highway.C.Seward Highway.D.The Lighthouse Trail.BAbout a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of 2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.4. Why did Lori make the call?A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.5. What impressed “I” by Lori?A. Lori was good at running recruiting.B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.6. What can we infer from the passage?A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.7. What is the best title of the passage?A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder.B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.C. Applying for a Job in Facebook.D. A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.CYou've probably heard it suggested that you need to move more throughout the day, and as a general rule of thumb, that "more" is often defined as around 10,000 steps. With many Americans tracking their stepsvia new fitness-tracking wearables, or even just by carrying their phone, more and more people use the 10,000-step rule as their marker for healthy living. Dr. Dreg Hager, professor of computer science at Johns Hopkins, decided to take a closer look at that 10,000-step rule, and he found that usingitas a standard may be doing more harm than good for many.“It turns out that in 1960 in Japan they figured out that the average Japanese man, when he walked 10,000 steps a day burned something like 3,000 calories and that is what they thought the average person should consume so they picked 10,000 steps as a number” Hager said.According to Hager, asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly or those with medical conditions, making it unwise for them to jump into that level of exercise, even if it's walking. The bottom line is that 10,000 steps may be too many for some and too few for others. He also noted that those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take more steps than people with longer legs to cover the distance. It seems that 10,000 steps may be suitable for the latter.A more recent study focused on older women and how many steps can help maintain good health and promote longevity (长寿).The study included nearly 17,000 women with an average age of 72. Researchers found that women who took 4,400 steps per day were about 40% less likely to die during a follow-up period of just over four years: Interestingly, women in the study who walked more than 7,500 steps each day got no extra boost in longevity.8. What does the underlined word "it' in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The phone recording.B. The 10,000-step rule.C. The healthy living.D. The fitness-tracking method.9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. How many steps a Japanese walks.B. How we calculate the number of steps.C. If burning 3,000 calories daily is scientific.D. Where 10,000 steps a day came from.10. Who will probably benefit from 10,000 steps each day according toHager?A. Senior citizens.B. Young short-legged people.C. Healthy long-legged peopleD. Weak individuals.11. How many steps may the researchers suggest senior citizens take each day?A. 4,400 steps.B. 10,000 steps.C. 2,700 steps.D. 7,500 steps.DOnce small farmers in Masii, a remote village in Kenya, have picked their crops, all they can do is wait until a buyer trucks through. The system works fairly well for beans and corn, but mangoes-the area’s other main crop-spoil (腐烂) more quickly. If the trader is late, they rot.However, a simple coating could change that. A company, SmartTech, has created a product that doubles the shelf life of fresh produce, enabling farmers to access far-off, larger markets. More time forfresh produce on grocers’ shelves also means less food waste-a $2.6 trillion problem, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).James Rogers, CEO of SmartTech, wanted to solve the problem for food much in the same way that oxide barriers preventing rust (锈) have achieved for steel. Fortunately, researchers have found when plants made the jump from water to land, they developed cutin(蜡质), a barrier which is made of fatty acids that link together toform a seal around the plant, helping keep water in.The cutin was such a grand strategy that today you’ll still find it across the plant kingdom. SmartTech discovered through researches that an orange can last longer than a strawberry not so much because of the thickness of its skin, but because of the difference in the arrangement of those cutin molecules (分子)on the surface. After extensive trials, Rogers and his team developed a natural and tasteless protective coating from plant material-stems, leaves and skins. The product extends the sweet spot between ripening and rot. And best of all, the treated produce doesn’t require refrigeration.“SmartTech has huge potential to turn poor farmers in Africa into commercial farmers,” says Rogers. “That means more money in pockets, and more food in stomachs.” But whether the company can cost-effectively reach small farmers in far-off areas still remains a challenge.12. The author mentions the small farmers in Kenya to ________.A. stress their need for preserving produceB. show their challenge in harvesting cropsC. express their wish to reach larger marketsD. evaluate their loss caused by slow transport13. What can we learn about SmartTech’s product?A. It is financially supported by FAO.B. It is intended to replace refrigeration.C. It is designed to thicken produce’s skin.D. It is based on plants’own defence system.14. What will James Rogers probably focus on next?A. How to expand farms.B. How to earn more money.C. How to produce more tasty food.D. How to profit farmers in remote area.15. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. promote a productB. present a technologyC. advertise SmartTechD. introduce James Rogers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。

NOK 120.BBritish anthropologists (人类学家) Russell Hill and Robert Barton of the University of Durham, after studying the results of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at the Olympic Games, conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win.Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other, colour has no effect on the result. However, when there is only a small difference between them, the effect of colour is enoughtipthe balance. The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant.Joanna Setchell, a primate (灵长目动物) researcher at the University of Cambridge, has found similar results in nature. She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills. Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out against their white faces. Setchell’s work shows that the powerful males — the ones who are more successful with females — have a brighter red nose than other males.As well as the studies on primates by Setchell, another study shows the effect of red among birds. In an experiment, scientists put red plastic rings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds’ success with female zebra finches, Zebra finches already have bright red beaks (鸟喙), so this study suggests that, as with Olympic athletes, an extra flash of red is significant. In fact, researchers from theUniversityofGlasgowsay that thebirds’ brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, andhis colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier. Nothing in nature is simple, however, because in species such as the blue footed booby, a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females.Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? Robert Barton accepts that “that is the implication” of their findings. Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing?4. According to their research.

Rules on sports clothing are going to be changed.D. Athletes wearing red may have an advantage over their opponents.COne day, when I was working as a psychologist(心理学家)in England, an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’thave the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically(同情)The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon---in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company(陪伴). But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.“It’s your tum,” he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one…without any words---can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.8. When he first met the author, David .A. felt a little excitedB. looked a little nervousC. walked energeticallyD. showed up with his teacher9.

In some areas, the rules are more strict, and people aren't allowed to leave their homes unless going out is ly necessary.These steps are very important for slowing the disease down. By doing this, governments can make sure doctors and hospitals are better able to deal with all the sick people, and that fewer people suffer in all. Usually, it's called “flattening the curve”.But if no one can go out, that means businesses which depend on visitors struggle. Many singers, bands, and other musicians would normally be giving concerts now. Instead, they have to find new ways to share their music and connect with their audiences. The Metropolitan Opera in New York has canceled(取消) its season, but it is showing a special live stream of a different opera each day on its website. Other opera companies have made similar moves. Several theater companies are either offering recorded versions of their plays online or posting videos of their actors performing.Nick Green wrote a musical play that was canceled because of the virus. He set up a website with links that allow people to enjoy the work of artists around the world who have had their projects canceled. He called his project the Social Distancing Festival. He sad it was a time when he should be doing something new, rather than feeling disappointed.Even TV shows have to find new ways to film their shows. Some late night TV shows have continued, but without audiences. Others are showing reruns.While their shows are on pause, some TV stars like Conan O’Brien and Jimmy Fallon have been filming short videos at home. Mr. O’ Brien plans to bring his show back on the air soon by filming with his own phone and talking with guests over the Internet.12. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.
