A(2020·潍坊市高三统考)When traveling on a budget, every dollar counts.Unfortunately, the cost of tickets alone can make a serious hole in your savings. Don't let that stop you from taking your dream vacation, though.According to Jeff Klee, CEO of , there is a “sweet spot” to get the biggest bang for your buck.“The most important rule is fairly obvious: don't wait until the last minute, as that rarely works out，” he said in a statement.“But beyond that, you also want to be careful not to buy too early.”Still, that's easier said than done. Finding the most costefficient time to book is tough. Luckily, somebody did the math — so you don't have to. Data crunchers from the online travel agency surveyed over 917 million fares to determine the day with the cheapest rates.Here's what they found: while prices tend to stay the same between 320 and 106 days before a trip, they start dropping at the 105day mark.That said, you might be tempted to book the moment prices drop.But hold on! You'll save even more money by booking precisely 70 days before your trip.According to , you can save 48 percent of the ticket's total cost by using this trick. After that date, airfares will begin to increase again. And don't even think about booking any later than 20 days ahead of time, as prices will be soaring.So, what are you waiting for? Start planning your next dream vacation, and book accordingly.Your wallet will thank you — guaranteed.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。
高考英语二轮专题复习 阅读理解之限时训练(四)
手惰市安逸阳光实验学校高考英语二轮专题复习精品阅读理解部分之限时训练（四）阅读理解A breathtaking trick potentially left over from our ancestors might be found in us — the ability to sense oxygen through our skin. Amphibians(两栖动物), animals such as frogs that can live both on land and in water, have long been known to be capable of breathing through their skin. In fact, the first known lungless frog that breathes only through its skin was discovered recently in the rivers of Borneo. Now the same oxygen sensors found in frog skins and in the lungs of mammals have unexpectedly been discovered in the skin of mice.“No one had ever looked,” explained Randall Johnson, a biologist researcher.Mice and frogs are quite distant relatives, so the fact they have these molecules (分子) in common in their skin suggests they might well be found in the skin of other mammals, such as humans.“We have no reason to think that they are not in the skin of people too,” Johnson said.These molecules not only detect oxygen, but help increase levels of vital red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body. Normal mice breathing in air that is 10 percent oxygen—a dangerously low level similar to conditions at the top of Mount Everest, and about half that of air at sea level. However, mice that had the oxygen sensor HIF-1 a genetically removed from their skin failed to produce this hormone (荷尔蒙) even after hours of such low oxygen.These findings, if they hold true in humans, suggest one could raise the level of oxygen circulating inside the body. This could help treat lung diseases and disorders such as anemia (贫血症) without injecting drugs, which make up a multibillion-dollar market, Johnson said.Athletes also often try to get more oxygen delivered to their muscles in order to improve their performance. They often do this by training at high altitudes or in low-oxygen tents. The new study suggests they might want to expose their skin as well as breathing in low-oxygen air to improve their performance. “It’s hard to say what exactly might be done, however—there’s a lot we don’t know yet,” Johnson explained. The scientists detailed their findings in the April 18 issue of the journal Cell.64. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Johnson believes that oxygen sensors also exist in human skin.B. People have to surf the Internet to read detailed findings.C. It has been proved that these findings help treat lung diseasesD. It has long been expected oxygen sensors exist in mice’s skin.65. One of the functions of the molecules mentioned above is _______.A. carrying oxygen around the bodyB.improving athletes’ performanceC. detectingoxygenD. increasing level of oxygen66. What is Johnson’s attitude to the application of the findings to the athletes’ training?A. NegativeB. DoubtingC.Positive D. Hesitating67. The best title of the passage may be _______.A. Great Findings Benefit Athletes A LotB. Frogs And Mice Are Distant RelativesC. First Known Animal Breathes Through SkinD. Humans Might Sense Oxygen Through Skin完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）A farmer had some puppies (小狗) he needed to sell. He painted a sign36 the puppies and set about nailing it to a post on the 37 of his yard. As he was 38 the last nail into the post, he felt a pull on his clothes. He looked down 39 the eyes of a little boy.“Mister,” he said, “I want to buy one of your puppies. ”“ 40 ,” said the farmer, as he rubbed the sweat off the back of his neck, “these puppies co me from fine 41 and cost much money. ”The boy dropped his head for a moment.

He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs. ”52 that the little boy stepped back from the fence, 53 down, and began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so he exposed a steel brace(支持物) attaching itself to a 54 made shoe.

People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation. Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital （婚姻的） status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving to places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”Between March 2005 and March 2007, 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty-six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad. Title: People on the 71参考答案阅读理解64----67 ACCD完形填空36－40 CBADB; 41－45 ABCCC; 46－50 DBADA; 51-55 DDAAB任务型阅读：71. move, 72. history, 73. increasing, 74.richer/wealthier, 75.

Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via medical technology.Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources we may well find technological substitutes for many of them through our research programs.Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.43. What is the best title for the passage?A. The definition of technologyB. Modern technologyC. The application of technologyD. The development of technology44.

But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently shaking his head and shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don‟t say!” “You don‟t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, I‟d better change the topic.” So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it” Soon I was interrupted again by his words：“You don‟t say!” I couldn‟t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn‟t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn‟t you say …you don‟t say‟?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “…You don‟t say‟ actually means …really?‟ It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don‟t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions.Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.36. A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because _______ .A．English idioms were not importantB．I was not careful with English idiomsC．My teacher didn‟t emphasize the im portance of themD．I had no interest in them37. At first, on hearing “You don‟t say,” I thought the foreigner meant ___ .A．he was not interested in the topicB．he was only interested in the Great WallC．I had talked too muchD．I had to stop talking38. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means ____ .A．interesting B．important C．terrible D．unlucky39. After the Englishman explained the idiom, __________ .A．I thought the Englishman had made me a foolB．the Englishman became a real foolC．I felt very sillyD．I became more careful in everythingBParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers（青少年）. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up（蜷伏）with me on the sofa and talk ,” said Mark . “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which. ”Before a ge 11, children like to tell their parents what‟s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Rita, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Rita explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what‟s going on in their teenagers‟ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say , and try to find ways to talk and write to them . And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing, parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.40. “The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son .A. is always busy with his studiesB. doesn‟t want to be disturbedC. keeps himself away from his parentsD. begins to dislike his parents41. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that .A. their daughter isn‟t as lovely as beforeB. they can‟t read their daughter‟s mind exactlyC. they don‟t know what to say to their daughterD. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help42. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph ?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.43. What can be learned from the passage?A. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.B. Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.D. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.。

阅读理解（时间：20分钟）AThe old camera Brownie picked up in a charity shop was a splendid find. But the undeveloped film still inside turned out to be even more of a treasure.New owner Don Roccoforte had it developed and saw in it an attractive dark haired woman in her thirties with two young boys. He immediately determined to try to find out who they were.A few weeks later the California-based camera collector received the news that left him stunned . The woman was his wife Jaqueline’s aunt in a pictu re taken around 50 years ago, and one of the boys, her cousin.The couple have now unraveled（揭开）the astonishing coincidence, which leads back to Mrs. Roccoforte’s native Lancashire, where many of her family still live. The camera was bought from a shop in Preston by Brownie, a friend of Mr. Roccoforte, who knew of his interest in photography and thought it would be an unusual gift.Back in California, the contents of his new possession inspired Mr. Roccoforte’s curiosity. Recognizing the water in the background of the photo as a lake in Lancashire, he sent a copy to the local paper in Preston to see if any readers could help.Another relative recognized the group as Winnie Bamber, still living in the area at the age of 81, her son Tony, Mrs. Roccoforte’s cousin, and Tony’s childhood friend, Mick Murphy.Yesterday Mrs. Bamber was still gasping （惊讶地吸气）at the turn of events which has reunited two strands（分支）of her family.She said she remembered taking the boys to the lake and losing the camera. The two boys, both now 58, still live near Preston.Mrs. Roccoforte’s father is Winnie Bamber’s brother, Billy Charnley.He and his wife moved to America in the 1960s. Their daughter met Mr. Roccoforte there and they married and moved to Preston for two years before returning to America.41. Which of the following is the right order of what happened?a. Don Roccoforte received a special present from his friend.b. Another relative recognized Winnie Bamber and the two boys.c. Winnie Bamber, together with two boys, went to take pictures at a lake.d.

Brownie bought an old camera in a shop.A．c→f→b→a→d→g→e B．b→c→a→f→d→e→gC．c→f→g→a→e→d→b D．a→c→b→f→e→g→d42. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Tony is the son of Winnie Bamber.B．Billy Charnley’s daughter was married to Don Roccoforte.C．Brownie married Winnie Bamber.D．Mrs. Roccoforte is Winnie Bamber’s niece.43. The underline d word “stunned” is closest in meaning to .A．disappointed B．shocked C．worried D．satisfied44. Lancashire is most likely to be located in .A．America B．Russia C．California D．England45. The best title for this passage would be .A. The Film that Waited 50 Years to Be DevelopedB. An Unusual Reunion after about Half a CenturyC. A Special Present to a Special FriendD. An Old Camera and the Beautiful Pictures In sideBThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.46. People who are unhappy .A. always consider things differently from othersB. usually are affected by the results of certain thingsC. usually misunderstand what others think or sayD. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things47. The underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “”.A. have a good taste with social lifeB. make others unhappyC. tend to scold others openlyD. enjoy the pleasure of life48. We can conclude from the passage thatA. we should pity all such unhappy peopleB. such unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD. unhappy people can not understand happy persons49. If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should .A. prevent any communication with themB. show no respect and politeness to themC. persuade them to recognize the bad effectsD. quarrel with them until they realize the mistakes50. In this passage, the writer mainly .A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at the unhappy peopleC. suggests ways to help the unhappyD. tells people how to be happy in lifeCAn Australian-based scientist announced yesterday he had made a step forward in forensic (用于法庭的) DNA testing so that an individual can be identified by a single cell.Ian Findlay, from the Australian Genome Research Facility at the University of Queensland, said current DNA testing required 200 to 500 cells to gain a similar level of accuracy. "What we have done has brought that down to one cell," Dr Findlay said after releasing details of his DNA testing technique at a Sydney conference.The technology could allow investigators to pick up DNA identities from plastic cards and even build up a complete history of the people who have handled a paper document."You'd have to wear a space suit to stop yourself from leaving traces. You can identify cells on the paper, so you can work out where it's come from and who's touched it,” he said.The technique could also be used to trace the thrower of a punch（打孔）from cells left behind on the skin of their victim. Even the wearing of latex（橡胶）gloves would not help: small cells can pass through the gloves, and the constant flow of genetic material given off by the human body would leave further evidence."We gained a skin cell from a document dating back 30 years and managed to gain a DNA fingerprint. DNA evidence can remain fresh for decades, perhaps even centuries," Dr Findlay said. "The potential for this technology to solve unsolved crimes is great, "he said.But Dr Findlay, named scientist of the year in 1998 by the European Society of Human Genetics, said the new testing needed to be scientifically validated, which would take up to five years.He said, "There are serious consequences taking on technologies too early. The public has to be sure that they have the utmost confidence in the security and court systems."51. The main advantage of the new technology is that ______.A．a single cell can identify an individualB．it has brought down the cost of DNA testingC．a higher level of accuracy can be acquired with a single cellD．it needs less than 200 cells to gain a certain level of accuracy52. The underlined word" validated" means ______.A. confirmedB. imaginedC. supposedD. criticized53. According to Ian Findlay, the new technology can ______.A. help to keep DNA evidence fresh for decades and even centuriesB. make the process of DNA testing much more simplifiedC. help to pick up DNA identities more easilyD. be widely used in five years at most54. The last paragraph suggests that ______.A. the immediate adopting of the technology may cause mistakesB. the public have acknowledged the new testing technologyC. it is safe to put the new technology into use nowD. Dr Findlay is quite sure of his new technology55. The aim of the passage is to ______.A. praise Ian Findlay for his workB. report a piece of interesting newsC. inform us of the wide use of DNA testingD. tell us a recent improvement in DNA testing参考答案完形填空21-25 AADCA 26-30 BDCAB语法填空1. of2.
