Winter Vinecki began running at age five, but got serious in 2020 after her father died of cancer —that’s when she decided to honor his memory by running a marathon on every continent before her 15th birthday.Scope: Team Winter is an organization you founded to raise money for cancer research. How did it get started?Winter: At first, Team Winter was formed to fight childhood obesity. When I was 8, I ran a race and raised $1,100 for that cause. But less than a year later, my dad got cancer. I knew I had to do something to help. When I started, my goal was to raise $10,000. I’ve raised well past that —almost $500,000. Scope: What goes through your mind when you run?Winter: When I’m having a hard time during a race, I think about my dad. If he could deal with the pain of cancer, I can deal with any type of pain. He was a very friendly person. He was always smiling and very happy even when he had cancer.Scope: Is your age ever an obstacle in your races?Winter: I’ve been turned down by race directors who won’t let anyone younger than 16 or 18 compete. But Diana Nyad, the first person to swim from Cubato Florida without a shark cage, told me, “Never let them tell you it can’t be d one.” From then on I knew my age wasn’t the problem.Scope: You’ve probably inspired lots of people too.Winter: I’ve heard about kids doing projects like me. Once in a restaurant, a boy came up to my mom and me and told us his dad had cancer too. Now he’s competing in running for his dad. Hearing stories like that helps keep me going.1.

由 (2020四川绵阳高三第二次诊断)改编Up to 90% of school leavers in major Asian cities are suffering from myopia ——short-sightedness, a study suggests. Researchers say the “extraordinary rise” in the problem is being caused by students working very hard in school and missing out on outdoor light.Eye experts say that you are short-sighted if your vision is blurred(模糊的) beyond 2m. It is often caused by an elongation (拉抻)of the eyeball that happens when people are young. According to the research, the problem is being caused by a combination of factors——a commitment to education and lack of outdoor light.Professor Morgan who led this study argues that many children in South East Asia spend long hours studying at school and doing their homework. This in itself puts pressure on the eyes, but exposure to between two and three hours of daylight helps maintain healthy eyes.Cultural factors also seem to play a part. Across many parts of South East Asian children often have a lunchtime nap. According to Professor Morgan they are missing out on natural light to prevent short-sightedness.A big concern is the numbers of the students suffering from “high” myopia. One in five of these students could experience severe visual impairment(障碍)and even blindness. These people are at considerable risk—sometimes people are not told about it and are just given more powerfulglasses-they need to be warned about the risk and given some self-testing measures so they can get to an ophthalmologist and get some help.For decades, researchers believed there was a strong genetic component to the condition. But this study strongly suggests an alternative view. “Any type of simple genetic explanation just doesn’t fit with that speed of change; gene pools j ust don’t change in two generations. Whether it’s a purely environmental effect or an environmental effect playing a sensitive genome, it really doesn’t matter, the thing that’s changed is not the gene pool-it’s the environment.”13.As is mentioned above ,which factor mainly results in students’ myopia in South East Asia?( )A.Genetic faults of the people.B.Elongation of the eyeball.C.The shortage of outdoor light.ck of research into the problem.14.Which of the following statements do you think agrees with Professor Morgan?( )A.A lunchtime nap is helpful in reducing myopia.B.Glasses keep myopia from getting even worse.C.It’s necessary to treat myopia with an operation.D.It’s of vital importance to reduce educational pressure.15.What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?( )A.Gene remains the main cause of the long-standing problem.B.The environment is to blame for the extraordinary rise in myopia.C.Short-sightedness has nothing to do with changes in gene pools.D.An environmental effect playing a sensitive genome counts.16.What’s the best way to take care of your eyes according to thepassage?( )A.Equip the classroom with better lights.B.Look at the sun from time to time.C.Do eyes exercise regularly.D.Spend more time in the open air.语篇解读:调查显示,亚洲主要城市中90%的毕业生都是近视眼,造成这一情况的原因有遗传因素,但主要是外在环境,如学生花费在学习上的时间太多和严重缺乏户外的自然光导致的。
2020届杭州市高级中学高三英语二模试卷及答案解析
2020届杭州市高级中学高三英语二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ATry one of these amazing destinations on your next vacation.MallorcaOn the popular Spanish island of Mallorca, farmhouse inns focus more on providing isolation and quietness than offering hands-on farming experiences. With millions of visitors staying on the beaches of Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands each summer, a little bit of isolation is a good thing for aloneness-seeking travelers. Mainly located in the hills of inland Mallorca, these inns range from rustic century-old farmhouses to luxury(奢侈的) villas with spas and swimming pools.HawaiiPeople who don't want to dig out their passport but still want their farm adventure can head to the island of Hawaii. The 50th state talks much about the well-developed farm tourism industry that can hold people with different interests. Agritourism choices range from visiting coffee plantations(种植园) in the Big Island's Kona region to exploring the plantations on Maui to staying on farms on the easily reachable island of Oahu. CaliforniaCalifornia is one ofthe best places in the U. S. to enjoy a farm-stay, thanks to the diversity of crops and farms. Small family farms and large farms offer a more hands-on approach to agritourism. Many of them teach small-scale farming techniques and even offer strategies for organic growing. The University of California system, one of the largest state-run higher education systems in the U.S., has a small-farm program that helps growers create agritourism businesses.Philippine IslandsWith diverse conditions on different islands, the Philippine Islands are ideal places for visiting multiple agritourism sites or focusing on one product. Tourists can visit a huge pineapple plantation for a taste of large-scale agriculture, or they could focus on smaller operations such as bee farms, and even small plantations that specialize in growing tropical produce such as dragon fruit.1. What kind of people will choose to go to Mallorca?A. Those who prefer peace of mind.B. Those who like lying on the beach.C. Those who enjoy the luxury of tourism.D. Those who want to experience farming.2. What can people do on the Philippine Islands?A. Live in farmhouses.B. Visit plantations.C. Learn farming techniques.D Take part in a farm program.3. What are the four places in the text famous for?A. Locations.B. Environments.C. Local products.D. Tourism features.BOne day when I was 5, my mother criticized me for not finishing my rice and I got angry. I wanted to play outside and not to be made to finish eating my old rice. In my angry motion to open the screen door (纱门) with my foot, I kicked back about a 12-inch part of the lower left hand corner of the new screen door. But I had no regret, for I was happy to be playing in the backyard with my toys.Today, I know if my child had done what I did, I would have criticized my child, and told him about how expensive this new screen door was, and I would have delivered a spanking (打屁股) for it. But my parents never said a word. They left the corner of the screen door pushed out, creating an opening, a crack in the defense against unwanted insects.For years, every time I saw that corner of the screen, it would remind me of my mistake from time to time. For years, I knew that everyone in my family would see that hole and remember who did it. For years, every time I saw a fly buzzing in the kitchen, I would wonder if it came in through the hole that I had created with my angry foot. I would wonder if my family members were thinking the same thing, silently blaming me every time a flying insectentered our home, making life more terrible for us all. My parents taught me a valuable lesson, one that a spanking or stern (严厉的) words perhaps could not deliver. Their silent punishment for what I had done delivered a hundred stern messages to me. Aboveall, it has helped me become a more patient person and not burst out so easily.4. When the author damaged the door, his parents _______.A. scolded him for what he had doneB. left the door unrepairedC. told him how expensive it wasD. gave him a spanking5. How did the author feel every time he saw the damaged door?A. He felt ashamed of his uncontrolled anger at that time.B. He found that his family members no longer liked him.C. He found it destroyed the happy atmosphere at his home.D. He felt he had to work hard to make up for (弥补) the damage.6. The experience may cause the author _______.A. to hide his anger away from othersB. not to go against his parents’ willC. to have a better control of himselfD. not to make mistakes in the future7. What of the following is the main idea of this passage?A. Adults should ignore their children’s bad behavior.B. Parents shouldn’t educate their children.C. What is the best way to become a more patient person?D. Silent punishment may have a better effect on educating people.CThese days, football is one of the most popular sports in the world. Given that Neil Armstrong wanted to take a football to the Moon, we could even say that it is also the most popular sport out of this world! The history of the game goes back over two thousand years to Ancient China. It was then known as cuju (kick ball), a game using a ball of animal skins with hair inside. Goals were hung in the air. Football as we know it today started inGreat Britain, where the game was given new rules.That football is such a simple game to play is perhaps the basis of its popularity. It is also a game that is very cheap to play. You don’t need expensive equipment; even the ball doesn’t have to cost much money. All over the world you can see kids playing to their hearts’ content with a ball made of plastic bags.Another factor behind football’s global popularity is the creativity and excitement on the field. It is fun enough to attract millions of people. You do not have to be a fan to recognize the skill of professional players or to feel the excitement of a game ending with a surprising twist.What’s more, football has become one of the best ways for people to communicate: it does not require words, but everyone understands it. It breaks down walls and brings people together on and off the field.“Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, ...” said Bill Shankly, the famous footballer and manager. “I can tell you with certainty it is much, much more important than that.” This might sound funny, but one only has to think about the Earth to realize that our planet is shaped like a football.8. What can we know from paragraph one?A. Some people like to play football on the Moon.B. The game called cuju was given new rules today.C. Cuju is different from football as we know it today.D. Many people like playing a ball made of plastic bags.9. According to the author, there are ________ reasons why football became so popular in the world.A. 3B. 4C. 5D. 610. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Football is round.B. Football is more than just a sport.C. Our planet is shaped like a football.D. What Bill Shankly said sounds funny.11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To talk about the history of football.B. To express his/her love of football.C. To explain why football is such a popular game.D. To prove that he/she is a professional football fan.DWhen I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven’t had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I don’t need one. I have a mobile phone and I’m always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices (装置) tell the time — which is why, if you look around, you’ll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007. This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions — but who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So why pay that much of five years’ school fees for watches that allow you to do these things?If justice were done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five-pound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch, with the aid of millions of pounds’ worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planesacross the world.Watches are now classified as “investments” (投资). A 1994 Philippe recently sold for nearly £ 350,000, while 1960s Rolexes have gone from £ 15,000 to £ 30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. It’s a toy for self-satisfaction, a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going up — they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when of fashion. Prices may keep going up — they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on, the owner of that £ 350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Times.12. The author don’t need another watch because ________.A. he don’t like wearing a watchB. he has mobile phone and can ask someone for helpC. he has no sense of timeD. he thinks watches too expensive13. It seems ridiculous to the writer that________.A. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sellB. expensive clothes sell better than cheap onesC. cheap cars don’t run as fast as expensive onesD. people dive 300 metres into the sea14. What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage?A. It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.B. It’s hard for the industry to beat its competitors.C. It targets rich people as its potential customers.D. It’s easy for theindustry to reinvent cheap watches.15. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Timex or Rolex?B. My Childhood TimexC. Watches? Not for Me!D. Watches----a Valuable Collection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。
英语_2020年浙江省杭州市高考英语二模试卷含答案
2020年浙江省杭州市高考英语二模试卷第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分25.0分)第一节(共10个小题;每小题2.5分,满分25.0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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.1. True heroes are all around us.Some help others, and others are simply good role model.My hero is my brother﹣Thomas.When Thomas and I were little, we used to go to the playground a lot. Kids would be scared of him and ask, "Is your arm broken? "Thomas would respond by explaining what happened, he was born without the left arm. If they ran away, he wouldn't let it bother him.Thomas is expert at both cross﹣country(越野跑)and track. He is a 4: 46 miler, which with the setback he has makes it an even greater accomplishment. Missing an arm affects his balance, which affects his leg drive.The work he has put in, however, has made up for this.He practices so hard that anything short of success would seem a disappointment. Thomas used to play baseball like it was a religion.His idol was Jim Abbott, a pitcher(投球手)for the California Angels.Abbott was a very good pitcher who only had one arm."I looked up to Abbott because I saw what I could achieve." Thomas said.Thomas had a lot of trouble giving up baseball for track because he felt like he was taking the easy wayout, though he liked track more.One of Thomas' best friends, Brad didn't even notice Thomas only had one arm for a few weeks after meeting him.He carried himself so confidently.So I felt okay admitting that I hadn't noticed, said Brad.Not only is Thomas a confident person who is not ashamed of his arm, he is often the center of attention in sports and school.Thomas seems to have accepted his disability.I see it as more of a difficulty, and difficulties can be overcome.Sometimes, if you try hard enough, you can overcome impossible things.As the great distance runner Steve Prefontaine said, "________(1)Which of the following words best describe Thomas?________A Courageous and modest.B Determined and religious.C Confident and strong ﹣willed.D Energetic and changeable..(2)Why did Thomas give up baseball for track?________A Because he had a preference for track.B Because his idol encouraged him to change.C Because he thought track was easier for him.D Because he couldn't play baseball with single arm..(3)The underlined sentence in the last paragraph is intended to remind us________.A giving is receivingB nothing is impossibleC hard work leaves noregrets D difficulties are gifts from God.2. We've all been there, running for a bus or train on a cold morning only to find that our nose is also running! Grab some tissues and learn the science behind the phenomenon known as "skier's nose."A nose like a running tap in winter is business as usual for many people.People call it"skier's nose".In a study, researchers found that 96 percent of people surveyed reported experiencing some degree of the condition.Apparently, getting a runny nose in cold weather is a bodily defense reaction.That's because the nose has two main purposes: 1)to ________ bacteria so they don't reach our lungs, and 2)to warm and humidify(加湿)the air before it reaches our lungs. Our airways are lined with tiny hairs known as ciliA.In the nose, these cilia wave back and forth to remove our mucus(黏液)so that bacteria can be blocked out.In cold weather the cilia are slowed.When cilia slow, bacteria remain in place and multiply, and this is why people get sick in winter.Not that the nose isn't trying to keep you healthy.All that running nose experience is the nose working overtime to produce more liquid to help move bacteria along.To help it out, experts say that you can try physically warming your nose: Rub your hands together, and then breathe into cupped hands or draw in steam from hot green tea and drink it, as green tea helps accelerate the growth and functioning of cilia.Our nose runs in winter for one more purpose, which is to fight against the drier outside (and inside)air.In winter, or when it's cold outside, the air is much drier than in summer.Our noses respond by producing more liquid to help humidify the air to a level our bodies need, and that's when it starts to run out of the end of our nose.(1)What does the underlined word "filter" probably mean in the third paragraph?________A Kill.B Prevent.C Defend.D Trap..(2)What can we know about "cilia"?________A They only exist in the nose.B They stop working in winter.C They can sweep away mucus.D They help break down bacteria..(3)Which of the following is the best title for the text?________A When Do You Have A Running Nose?B What Are the Purposes of Yournose? C How Can You Deal With D Why Does Your Nose Run When It's Cold?.3. If you grew up in a household that had its fair hare of book shelves, it might say something positive about your personality now that you're all grown up.This new study found that people who grew up in book﹣filled homes have higher reading, math, and technological skills.The researchers analyzed data featuring 160, 000 adults (ages 25 to 6)across 31 nations.All participants were asked how many books there were in their home when they were 16 years old.They chose from a series of alternatives ranging from "10 or less" to "more than 500."If a household held at least 80 books.then participants went, on to display the average rate of literacy and numeracy(认字和计算), The rate of literacy continued to increase in parallel to the number of books a household contained until the rate didn't increase from 350 books onwards.Furthermore, young teenagers who grew up around books were shown to have the same levels of literacy and numeracy as university graduates who had only grown up around a few books.Literacy was clarified as "the ability to read effectively to participate in society and achieve personal goals." Participants took tests that "captured a range of basic through advancedcomprehension skills, from reading brief texts for a single piece of information to synthesizing(合成)information from complex texts." Numeracy tests measured the "ability to use mathematical concepts in everyday life, " while IT﹣related tests "assessed the ability to use digital technology to communicate with others, as well as togather, analyze, and synthesize information, "The results suggest those books made a long﹣term difference, "Growing up with home libraries improves adult skills in these areas beyond the benefits from parental education, or one's own educational or occupational attainment, " the researchers report.Not surprisingly, the biggest effect was on reading ability."The total effects of home library size on literacy are large everywhere, " the researchers report.(1)What can we learn from the new study?________A Homes filled with books do much benefit to one's growth.B One's literacy and numeracy are finally shaped at the age of 16.C All participants need to have ten lo more than 500 books at home.D Those reading a lot are more competent than university graduates..(2)What is paragraph 4 mainly about?________A The benefit of literacy,numeracy and IT ability.B The measurement of literacy,numeracy and IT ability.C The relation between literacy,numeracy and IT ability.D The difference between literacy,numeracy and IT ability..(3)According to the text,books influence one's________.A parental educationB occupational attainmentC calculating abilityD reading ability.(4)What is the writer's purpose in writing the text?________A To describe the importance of receiving good education.B To clarify the effect of home library size on one's adult skills.C To explain the necessity of acquiring literacy and numeracy.D To introduce methods of improving one's literacy and numeracy.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.4. Humans were made for walking.With our upright,posture and strong leg muscles,our bodies were actually designed with walking in mind,which makes it such perfect exercise.It's kind to our bodies and great for our waistlines.(1)_______Maybe you already love to walk,but you're getting tired of tracing the same old route day after day,or maybe you're new to walking and aren't sure how to get started.(2)_______Ask yourself, what do you want to get out of walking aside from the health benefits?Do you want to meet other people?See new places?Get out into the countryside or explore a new city?Knowing your goals will help you decide on the type of walk you want to do.I making friends and socializing is your goal,call up your friends and schedule walks with them.(3)_______ Many malls have groups that come every day,or every weekend,to"walk the mall."

文体分类练(二)记叙文(限时:25分钟)Passage1(2023山东淄博一模)My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it.By chance,a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world.We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options.There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world,but we tried our luck,sent a request,and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada,so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.Inspired by a Canadian couple,we decided to start our own travel blog.We began by writing about The Virgin Islands,highlighting the beautiful beaches.However,for every photo album of a beautiful beach,there were 10 photos of trash.It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue,especially on such primitive and remote beaches.So,we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.The more we looked into plastic pollution,the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution.From that point,we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free.We changed our daily routines,our way of living,and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging.It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can.This journey has led us to some amazing places,working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.Our aim now is to keep on going.We love connecting with like-minded people.It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting.Who would have guessed?1.Why did the author do pet sitting?A.To raise fund.B.To protect the environment.C.To cover travel expenses.D.To shoot beautiful beaches.2.What does the author intend to convey through her story?A.Pet sitting is a new type of occupation.B.The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination.C.Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity.D.Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution.3.How did the author find her experience in the Caribbean?A.Significant.B.Challenging.C.Adventurous.D.Dreadful.4.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A.Changing Lifestyles by Pet SittingB.Unexpected Gains from Pet Sitting TravelC.Dealing with Global Environmental PollutionD.The Availability of Pet Sitting in the CaribbeanPassage2(2023四川宜宾二诊)Sachin Oza always seemed to catch whatever cold and flu germs were flying around.Despite being only in his mid-thirties,he felt out of shape and out of sorts.He realized that if he didn’t make some changes,his immune function would continue worsening with age.“I have a family background of diabetes,high cholesterol,and heart disease,” adds Oza.“I had to take action.”But Oza’s lifestyle stood in the way.He clocked long days working in finance in London,with little opportunity to be active or focus on his well-being.His commute from his home in Orpington,Kent,to the office was stressful and time-consuming,and he was spending far too many hours stuck behind his desk.Oza’s increasingly sedentary(久坐不动的) lifestyle had repercussions.In addition to catching bugs easily,he lacked energy,his body ached,and he felt lethargic.“My immune system was really weak,” recalls Oza.“I knew that I shouldn’t be feeling this way before even hitting 40.”So he began a 15-year journey to examine his health fully.He conducted some changes to his diet,introducing more raw fruits and vegetables and cutting down on junk food.He started going for runs and began regular training,resistance training,and stretching.He also became interested in mindfulness,practising deep-breathing and meditation.Now 49,Oza feels like a new man.“I catch colds far less frequently than before,” he says.His aches and pains have eased,his stress levels are lower,and he sleeps soundly.“I no longer wake up in the early hours,which has made a huge difference in how I feel.”There are many factors affecting the immune system that we can’t control—ageing weakens our immune function,for example,and we have individual genetic differences that affect how we deal withdiseases.5.What was the barrier for Oza to make changes before?A.His immune system.B.His family background.C.His unfavourable lifestyle.D.His weak health situation.6.What does the underlined word “lethargic” mean?A.Puzzled.B.Sleepy.C.Unconfident.D.Energetic.7.How has Oza regained health?A.By taking a 15-year journey.B.By giving up his job in London.C.By eating raw fruits and vegetables.D.By changing diets and keeping training.8.What do you think of Oza according to his experience?A.Busy.B.Determined.C.Intelligent.D.Dull.Passage3(2023浙江嘉兴二模)Joe Horan,a physical education teacher,has started the program Building Men to create a positive vision of manhood not just for himself,but also for the boys he teaches.Looking back,Mr.Horan says his program developed from a low point in his life.In 2004 as he went through a hard time,he felt society’s definition of manhood was leading him down the wrong path.His life,he says,lacked substance and depth.“A desire became planted in my heart.That is,to find healing from the unhealthy messages I believed about manhood,” he says.Then,his sister recommended a book,Season of Life by Jeffrey Marx,which digs into the discovery of what being a man is all about.Joe took all the clues and started to put life lessons into his class.Despite limited resources and funding,Building Men began at one middle school in the district in 2006.It grew on a shoestring budget,expanding school by school,year by year.Today,33 teachers,like Mr.Colabufo,work across 18 schools.Mr.Colabufo has known Mr.Horan for several years,noting many people are aware of the program’s success.“Joe’s a legend in this district,” Mr.Colabufo says.The program appeals to boys at first because of a basketball component,but its secret is how it divesinto off-the-court issues through discussions on character.Building Men helps participants gain insight,work to restore self-worth,and learn to calm emotions.SIR is a central component of lessons,standing for significance,integrity,and relationships.At a recent breakfast fundraiser,Shateek Nelson,a senior at Nottingham High School,shared his experience,having participated in Building Men since middle school.He said he learned to see the bigger picture,rather than living in the moment.He also came to realize his actions affect others,and now he factors that into his decisions.9.What motivated Joe Horan to start the program Building Men?A.An instructional book.B.His personal experience.C.His sister’s suggestion.D.The society’s expectation.10.What does the underlined word “shoestring” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Flexible.B.Proper.C.Tight.D.Balanced.11.What did Shateek Nelson learn from participating in Building Men?A.One should dream big and then start small.B.One should live each day as if it were the last day.C.It is good to gain real-life experience at middle school.D.It is essential to think more of others in decision-making.12.What is the best title for the text?A.SIR:Core Component of Physical EducationB.Healthy Life:Involving Substance and DepthC.Building Men:Teaching Boys About ManhoodD.Manhood:Teenagers’ Power of Handling Issues答案:Passage1[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文。

2020年杭州市高级中学高三英语第二次联考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AWhen the weather is bad or when the flu breaks out, we can let the kids do some fun things at home, which can be beneficial to kids.Reading out loudIf your children are young enough, don't forget to read books to them out loud! Few children dislikehaving a good book read to them, and it's great for the development of their brains. However, if your children are a bit older and have moved onto more advanced books, there is always the choice of listening to an audiobook. This can also be done while they're doing something else.Playing board gamesMaybe your children's table is full of board games, which have been forgotten for a long time. It's a good time to bring them out when playing outside is no longer a choice. Surely, playing board games is a great way to connect with children. In addition, many board games are designed to get children thinking!Having a dance partyConsidering that all you need is a speaker or maybe just a phone, you can have a dance party wherever you are! This is a great way to get kids’ bodies moving when they are inside. Play some of your children's favorite music and let them dance to it. Not only is it good exercise, but it will help your children feel time is flying!Doing jigsaw (拼图) puzzlesFor most people that have children, it's common to have at least one jigsaw puzzle at home. Jigsaw puzzles are great because everyone can do them on their own time. Besides, your whole family will have a sense of achievement when everyone is smiling over the finished product.1. What do reading out loud and playing board games have in common?A. They both develop children's team spirit.B. They both improve children's listening ability.C. They both do good to children's thinking ability.D. They both focus on interaction between children.2. Which of the following combines exercise and music?A. Reading out loud.B. Playing board games.C. Doing jigsaw puzzles.D. Having a dance party.3. What is the purpose of the text?A. To list four interesting children's parties.B. To recommend four children's favorite books.C. To introduce some activities for children inside.D. To show some funny things for children outside.BYu Chenrui, 29, is a maker of automata (机关人偶) in Chengdu, Sichuan province. Automata are built to look like humans or animals and give the illusion (错觉) of being able to move ontheir own, “The art form amazes me, because it combines various skills, from storytelling to mechanics, and the pieces are built with a sense of humor,” Yu says. His creations have caught the attention of well-known artists and his fancy pieces of art have attracted collectors worldwide.Interested in handcrafts as a boy, Yu first encountered automata designed by Japanese artist Kazuaki at an exhibition in 2015 when he studied at the Communication University of China in Beijing. “It was like meeting a like-minded friend, ” Yu says, recalling the moment. As an art and design major, he began to learn the craft by himself and, with the support of his tutor, he kept studying and examining automata in school.When he graduated in 2016, Yu landed a job at an advertising agency in Beijing. He stayed on at the company for three years because, at that time, he was not sure that he could make a living out of his hobby. While working as a designer Yu kept exploring and advancing his skills in wood carving and mechanics. Eventually, despite the job’s good salary, it was not enough to make up for not following his true passion. Finally, in 2018, Yu quit his job and returned to Chengdu to open his automata workshop.To keep himself occupied while running his workshop, he planted blueberries, raspberries and cherries. He watered, weeded and added fertilizer (肥料) every day. “Daily routines helped me calm down and inspire my creativity, which resulted in an automaton called To Observe the Autumn,” Yu says.Over time, Yu’s reputation grew and his business flourished (兴旺). Many of Yu’s creations are built with a dash of wisdom, a sprinkle of humor and are inspired by observations of real life. Yu knows that there are many more creative ideas waiting to be expressed. “It feels quite good to be fully devoted to automata creation and I am still searching for myself.”4. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Yu is equipped with various skills.B. Yu is a person full of sense of humor.C Yu is now gaining recognition worldwide.D. Yu is following the latest trend in handcraft.5. Why did Yu quit his job in Beijing?A. He couldn't make a living out of it.B. He wanted to pursue his own dream.C. He missed his family in Chengdu.D. He thought he had a lot experience.6. According to Yu, what contributes to his creativity as an automata artist?A. The fruits he grows.B. Success of his business.C. His devotion to the job.D. Observation from daily life.7. Which of the following can best describe Yu’s story?A. There is no end to learning.B. Great hopes make great man.C. Actions speak louder than words.D. Experience is the mother of wisdom.CThe founder of Earth Day was Gaylord Nelson, a U.S. Senator fromWisconsin. During the late 1960s, Americans witnessed the uninvited side effects of high productivity. Factories and power plants were sending out smoke and industrial waste while Americans were using petrol for their massive(大量的) cars, making air pollution almostsynonymous withthe nation’s development.What moved Senator Nelson to action was the 1969 massive oil spill inCalifornia, the largest in theUnited Statesat that time. The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a significant effect on marine life, killing about 3,500 sea birds, as well as marine animals such as dolphins, elephant seals and sea lions, fueling public anger. Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time, Nelson found it an appropriate time to direct the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection. He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment. Thus Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmentalawareness took centre stage.On 22ndApril 1970, millions of Americans took to the street and thousands of students marched to appeal for a healthy, sustainable environment. There was now a new synergy(协同作用) among different groups which had previously been fighting their causes related to the environment. Their fight for environmental conservationbecame so overwhelming that affected businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.As it became more apparent that environmental issues were not just localized ones but a global concern, the year 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more around the world. Earth Day 1990 helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit inRio de Janeiro, bringing together many nations for a united effort towards protecting the environment.8. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “synonymous with” in paragraph 1?A. familiar withB. opposite toC. different fromD. equal to9. Why did Nelson found Earth Day?A. To support students’ antiwar movement.B. To draw people’s attention to the seriousness of the oil spill.C. To arouse American’s awareness of environmental conservation.D. To educate Americans to protect marine life threatened by oil spill events.10. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Businesses would like to follow environmental standards.B. Earth Day united people to fight for environmental protection.C. It was the side effects of high productivity that led Nelson to take action.D. The 1992 United Nations Earth Summit made Earth Day known to more countries.11. The passage mainly talks about_______.A. how Earth Day came into beingB. why Earth Day was so significantC. who the founder of Earth Day wasD. what Earth Day meantto the worldDImust have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like mymom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A’s on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading.I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.12. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s hands?A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart.C. She couldn’t help but stopmom from reading.D. She was eager to know what had happened.13. According to Paragraph 3, the author’s reading of road signs shows___________.A. her own way to find herselfB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her growing desire to know the world around herD. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules14. The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.A. explore a mysterious landB. develop an interest in learningC. get away from a confusing worldD. learn about the adult world15. What could be the best title for the passage?A The Pleasure of Reading B. Growing Up with ReadingC. The Magic of ReadingD. Reading Makes a Full Man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届高考英语二轮复习阅读理解细节理解类【分类真题】(2019年课表全国卷二,C)Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s "me" time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent)have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report."I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?" Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. "Today, I just wanted some time to myself," she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). "I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week," he said. "It's a chance for self-reflection, You return to work recharged and with a plan."That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. "It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology," said Laurie Demeritt, whose company provided the statistics for the report.28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A. Food variety.B. Eating habits.C. Table manners.D.Restaurant service.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。

阅读理解和七选五在高考卷中分值达50分左右,是决定学生高考英语成绩的一个重要题型。
高考中的阅读理解按照文章体裁通常可以划分为应用文、说明文、记叙文和议论文。
文体不同,语篇结构、语言特点和阅读策略也各有差异。
在各类文体中,记叙文占了很大比重。
记叙文是一种以记叙为主要表达方式的文章体裁,分为写人的记叙文和叙事的记叙文,人不离事,事不离人,但写作对象和写作目的有区别。
写人的记叙文以人为写作对象,表现人物的品质特点,而叙事的记叙文以事件为记叙对象,揭示事件对人、对社会的思想意义。
本文将结合近几年高考试题,阐述记叙文阅读理解的命题特点和解题策略。

Roosevelt Fireplace CabinsBGrowing up,I thought math class was something to be endured,not enjoyed.I disliked memorizing formulas(公式)and taking tests,all for the dull goal of getting a good grade.One of my teachers told my mother that I was "slow".But my problem wasn't with math itself.In fact,when a topic seemed particularly interesting,I would go to thelibrary and read more about it.By high school,no one told me that I could become a professional mathematician.What I wanted to do then was to play college football.My ambition was to get an athletic scholarship to attend a Big Ten school.The chances of that happening were very low.But that didn't stop my coaches from encouraging me to believe I could reach my goal,and preparing and pushing me to work for it.They made video tapes of my performances and sent them to college coaches around the country.In the end,a Big Ten school,Penn State,did offer me a scholarship.I wish math teachers were more like football coaches.Students are affected by more than just the quality of a lesson plan.They also respond to the passion of their teachers and the engagement of their peers,and they seek a sense of purpose.They benefit from specific instructions and constant feedback(反馈).Until I got to college,I didn't really know what mathematics was.I still thought of it as laborious(耗时费力的)calculations.Then my professor handed me a book and suggested that I think about a particular problem.It wasn't easy,but it was fascinating.My professor kept giving me problems,and I kept pursuing them,even though I couldn't always solve them immediately.The mathematical research I was doing had little in common with what I did in my high school classrooms.Instead,it was closer to the math and logic puzzles I did on my own as a boy.It gave me that same sense of wonder and curiosity,and it rewarded creativity.I am now a Ph.D candidate in mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.4.Why did the writer think math class in school was "something to be endured" beforeentering college?A. Because he wasn't interested in math.B. Because his math teachers didn't care to push him.C. Because he was too smart and talented for math class.D. Because he was training hard for an athletic scholarship.5.According to the writer,students are affected by the following things from teachersorcoaches EXCEPT ______ .A. a sense of purposeB. constant feedbackC. passionD. specific instructions6.We can conclude that after entering college,the writer ______ .A. was busy looking for math problems to solveB. studied on his own just as he was in high schoolC. met with laborious calculations in his studiesD. began to realize what mathematics really is7.What is the best title for the text?A. Interest is the best teacherB. Be the best-you can make itC. Math,taught like footballD. Once your teacher,always your teacherCRecently I rolled into a local restaurant to try an Impossible Burger,an all-plant patty(人造肉饼)invented by Impossible Foods.It's well known for having an strangely chewy(有咀嚼感),even bloody,meat-like quality,a surprising verisimilitude(逼真)that has made it "perhaps the country's most famous burger," as New York magazine wrote.One bite into its wonderful,smoky taste and,damn,I was convinced.This is good news,because the time has come to consume fake meat.In the fight against climate change,meat replacement is something we can try.A University of Oxford study recently found that,to keep global warming below 2 degrees this century,we need to be eating 75 percent less beef and 90 percent less pork.However,diets are culturally enshrined,so changing them will be hard.It isn't easy to replace 75 to 90 percent of beef and pork with fake meat.The first taste of an Impossible Burger-a moment when low expectations work a powerful magic in the product's favor-is one thing.But how do you keep meat-eaters asking for more after their sixth,and their 26th? To get to true mass adoption,fake meat will need to compete favorably with the real thing on multiple fronts.Impossible Foods' goal is to drive the price of its product below that of Safeway's 80/20 hamburger meat,at which point people will simply vote with their wallets.The new industry also wants to improve on animal flesh in various ways.Fake meat has an advantage over traditional meat because "you won't need to refrigerate it" cofounder Niko Koffeman says.Plus,custom(定制的)production could improve choice."You could have very soft and tender meat for elderly people," Koffeman adds."You could have a tailored meat for whatever you need."You can tell the world is shifting this way,because the ranchers(牧场主)are nervous.Last year,the US Cattlemen's Association asked the government to define "meat" as a product "coming directly from animals." That anxiety-and the power of the science driving it-goes to show that this grand shift isn't impossible.8.According to passage,the author was convinced by the Impossible Burger because______ .A. it has a special taste that is different from normal ones.B. it contains all non-meat materials that taste like meat.C. more vegetables are used as main materials for the burger.D. one bite of this burger can provide people with the energy needed for a whole day.9.What does the author mean by saying "Diets are culturally enshrined"?A. That people think their diet is the best in the world.B. That people are unwilling to go against their culture by changing their diets.C. That people's preference for food is linked to the food choice available to them.D. That people's eating habits are consistently observed and closely connected with theirculture.10.Which of the following statements is true about the advantages that fake meat will have tobeat over traditional meat?A. Fake meat will not be necessarily stored in a refrigerator.B. The price of fake meat will be just one-fourth of traditional meat's.C. Fake meat will win over older people thanks to its tender and soft taste.D. Fake meat will own a taste that is not found in traditional meat.11.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Meat must come from animals.B. The world will probably embrace the idea of fake meat.C. The ranchers are suffering economic loss due to fake meat.D. The definition of meat has been changed because of fake meat.DA new study has found the amount of antibiotics(抗生素)given to farm animals is expected to increase by two-thirds over the next 15 years.Researchers are linking the growing dependence on the drugs to the increasing need for meat,milk and eggs.However,the drugs could quicken the development of antibiotic-resistant infections(感染).Such infections are already a major public,health concern in the United States.The World Health Organization notes when people stop living in poverty(贫困),the first thing they want to do is eat better,rather than earn more money.For most people,that means their diet should contain more meat.With the rapid development of Asia,people there are eating nearly four times as much meat,milk and other milk products as they did 50 year ago. To meet the need,farmers have put many animals into smaller spaces.As the animals are crowded together,the easiest way to deal with some of the problems d crowding is to give them antibiotics.It's clear that antibiotics help animals stay healthy in a crowded environment and grow faster.But bacteria can develop resistance to the drugs gradually.Nowadays,doctors find antibiotics that once worked against the infections no longer work .The bacteria have learned ways to fight against the drugs.The heavy use of antibiotics in animals is responsible for the growth of antibiotic resistance worldwide.In the United States,at least two million people get drug-resistant infections each year and at least 23,000 die from an infection.Europe has banned the use of antibiotics to increase animal growth.And the United States is hoping to persuade farmers to stop using antibiotics for that purpose.12.What accounts for the increasing amount of antibiotics given to farm animals?A. The desire for new drugs.B. The less effective antibiotics.C. The outdated farm technology.D. The need for more various foods.13.What do most people want to do first when they get rid of poverty according to the WHO?A. Making a lot of money.B. Focusing more on health.C. Having more meat in their diet.D. Living in a better environment.14.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Antibiotics do harm to animals.B. Antibiotics help animals stay healthy.C. Antibiotics are used heavily in Europe.D. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria spread to people.15.What's the passage mainly about?A. A new way of raising farm animals.B. The advantages of using antibiotics.C. The reason for banning the use of antibiotics.D. The negative effect of antibiotics in farm animals.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting?Certainly,it is a new experience,which brings the opportunity of discovering fascinating things and a feeling of freedom.(1) You will experience culture shock.Evidently,at least four essential stages of culture-shock adjustment occur.The first stage is called "the honeymoon".In this stage,you feel excitement about living in a different place,and everything seems to be marvelous.(2)Eventually,however,the second stage of culture shock appears.This is the "hostility stage".(3) You become tired of many things about the new culture.Moreover,people don't treat you like a guest anymore.Everything that seemed to be so wonderful at first isnow awful,and everything makes you feel distressed and tired.Then you come to the third stage called "recovery".You start feeling more positive,and you try to develop comprehension of everything you don't understand.The whole situation starts to become more favorable.(4)The last stage of culture shock is called "adjustment".(5) The things that initially made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand.Now you feel comfortable;you have adjusted to the new culture.A.Actually,culture shock is something you cannot avoid when studying in a foreign country.B.You have reached a point where you feel good because you have learned enough to understand the new culture.C.You like everything,and everybody seems to be so nice to you.D.You recover from the symptoms of the first two stages.E.In spite of these advantages,however,there are also some challenges you will encounter.F.However,when you have completely adjusted to a new culture you can more fully enjoy it.G.You begin to notice that not everything is as good as you had originally thought it was.16.
