第一部分听力(共两节,满分30分) (略)第二部分阅读理解(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和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AMy college experience included this life-skill lesson: Drink alcohol on a full stomach. Or you will get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of college students aged 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harm-reducing approaches important.Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a practice that turns the full-stomach drinking strategy on its head: rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol.This is a high-risk behavior called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism—a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia addresses the need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mind-set about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women.Imagine this scenario: A femal e college freshman doesn’t eat anything all day, exercises on an empty stomach, then downs five shots of tequila in less than two hours. Because there’s no food in her system to help slow the absorption of alcohol, those shots affect her rapidly, leading to inebriation and possibly passing out, vomiting or suffering alcohol poisoning. That’s drunkorexia.Tavis Glassman, professor of health education and public health at the University of Toledo in Ohio, researches drunkorexia and worries about scenarios suc h as the one described above: “With nothing in her system, alcohol hits quickly, and that brings up the same issues as with any high-risk drinking: getting home safely, sexual assault, unintentional injury, fights, hangovers that affect class attendance and grades, and possibly ending up in emergency because the alcohol hits so hard,” he says.“Alcohol can negatively affect the liver or gastrointestinal system, it can interfere with sleep, lower the immune system and is linked to several types of cancers,” Hultin says.1. What does the underlined word “inebriated” in paragraph 1 mean?A. excitedB. overwhelmedC. addictedD. drunk2. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. a large number of college students spend most of their nights partyingB. some college students refuse to eat before drinking alcohol to keep slimC. There is a direct link between body image and consuming alcoholD. female college student is more likely to be hurt if she drinks alcohol3. Which of the following may Tavis Glassman agree with?A. With more food in one’s system, he may suffer from the effects of alcohol slowly.B. Drinking five shots of tequila in less than two hours is the performance of drunkorexia.C. Those who don’t attend classes and have lower grades tend to be addicted to alcohol.D. Alcohol has negative effects on the immune system and may lead to several cancers.BThe first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. They were hunters and gatherers of food who used stone tools and weapons. But the British Isles only became islands separate from the rest of Europe about 8,500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead.Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 ye ars ago. Stonehenge is the world’s most famous prehistoric monument. We don’t know what it meant or what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before, and people had to move down from high ground. A bit later iron started to be sued for tools and weapons instead of bronze.Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don’t have any written record of Britain until the Romans came, almost 300 years after he did!4.This passage mainly tells us _______ .A.The dawn of history in BritainB.How English Channel was formedC.How the British made a living millions of years agoD.When humans appeared on the British Isles5.In this passage “the man-made hill” probably refers to ___________ .A.The small islands in BritainB.Earthworks for protection and as tombsC.The amazing StonehengeD.The farms opened up by the first man6.Why did people move to low ground 3,000 years ago?A.Because iron tools were used for farmingB.Because the climate made it unfit for man to live thereC.Because more people arrived from southern EuropeD.Because the Celts forced them to do so7.Only after ________ do people have written records about Britain.A.the arrival of the CeltsB.Stonehenge was begunC.Pytheas’s visitD.the Romans cameCDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from everywhere. Four trams from four differ ent directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are ca rs, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when shewon a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that childr en have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park w here children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, L otta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city that’s good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”8. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer for children.C. To give suggestions to the city’s mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city.9. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. ImportantB. UnnecessaryC. DifficultD. Valuable10. What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor? .A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.11. What’s Boerma’s attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. CautiousB. FavorableC. AmbiguousD. DisapprovingDGive yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you’ll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A c hild’s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are numb(麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the RockyMountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession(痴迷) many of us have with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guid es, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark. It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit, to take a moment to s ee what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds, ” they said. They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.12. According to Paragraph 2, compared with adults, children are more ________.A. anxious to do wonders.B. sensitive to others’ feelings.C. likely to develop unpleasant habits.D. eager to explore the world around them.13. What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3?A. To avoid jumping to conclusions.B. To stop complaining all the time.C. To follow the teacher’s advice.D. To admit mistakes honestly.14. The bird watchers’ behavior shows that they _______.A. are very patient in their observation.B. are really fascinated by nature.C. care only about the names of birds.D. question the accuracy of the field guides.15. In the passage, the author intends to tell us we should ______.A. fill our senses to feel the wonders of the world.B. get rid of some bad habits in our daily life.C. open our mind to new things and ideas.D. try our best to protect nature.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。

高考英语模拟试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AAmong all the tourist attractions in Sydney,the magnificent Opera House is the shining star.On the edge of Bennelong Point,a tongue of land sticking out into Sydney Harbor,this UNESCO World Heritage Site consists of a complex of roofs shaped like huge shells or billowing sails that mix beautifully with its waterfront location.Today visitors can admire the great beauty of the building.Much more than an opera house,the structure encompasses (包含)theaters,studios,a concert hall,rehearsal,and reception rooms,restaurants,and a spectacular open-air forecourt overlooking the harbor and city.American architect Louis Kahn once said,"The sun did not know how beautiful its light was,until it was reflected off this building."Tips and TacticsBook seats for productions well in advance.Performances commence promptly so visitors should allow enough time to access the building,collect tickets,and stow cloaks,large bags,and jackets.Consider enjoying a meal in one of the restaurants to enjoy the stunning harbor views.One of the best sites to photograph the Opera House is Mrs.Macquarie's Chair in the Royal Botanic Gardens or from the water aboard a harbor cruise.Getting to the Sydney Opera HouseVisitors can catch a Sydney Bus,travel by City Rail,or hop aboard a Sydney Ferry to Circular Quay,which is a 5 to 7 minute walk from the Sydney Opera House.A free shuttle bus for elderly and mobility-challenged patrons (顾客)runs between Circular Quay near Stand E (under the Cahill Expressway)and the Vehicle Concourse.Bike parking is available under the Sydney Opera House Monumental Steps.Wilson's Sydney Opera House Car Park is located at 2 Macquarie St,with vehicle access next to the Sydney Opera House Forecourt.Admission:Ticket prices vary from attraction to attraction.Location:Bennelong Point,Sydney.1.Which of the characteristics of Sydney Opera House might attract visitors most?______A. Its historical context.B. Its unique architecture.C. Its waterfront location.D. Its superb harbor views.2.If you are a visitor to Sydney Opera House,you can ______ .A. take a ferry directly to Sydney Opera HouseB. ride a free shuttle bus without any restrictionsC. take an equally good photo from any angleD. drive a car to 2 Macquarie St and park thereBMen don't go through pregnancy or childbirth.Their hormone (荷尔蒙)levels don't nosedive.What exactly have they got to be depressed about?Quite a lot,according to research from Sweden showing that,over the past 10 years,a significant number of men have struggled with the transition(过渡)to fatherhood.This latest research tries to quantify just how many men get postnatal(产后)depression.Previous studies have found between 4% and 10% of men.while,in this smallish sample of 447 Swedish fathers who volunteered (and may therefore not represent your average dad),a surprising 28% of men had symptoms that scored above mild levels of depression.Overall,4% had moderate depression.Fewer than one in five fathers who were depressed sought help,even though a third of those had thought about harming themselves.While women in the UK are often asked a series of questions that screen for postnatal depression (which affects up to 13% of women),the mental health of fathers is rarely assessed.The lead author of the Swedish paper,Elisa Psouni,from the department of psychology at Lund University,says the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS)used for both women and men is not so accurate in picking up depression in fathers.Her research showed higher levels of depression in dads because it added in a score more reflective of "male" symptoms of depression such as agitation,anger,irritability(易怒),working longer hours and drinking too much.Depression in fathers may be rising not just because researchers are looking for it,but because more new dads are struggling.Psouni believes fathers increasingly face the same dilemmas that mothers do-including trying to combine parenthood with working Fathers who got depressed often had external pressures,such as job issues,and if their partner was depressed,their own risk of depression doubled.Lack of sleep,having twins and conflict in the relationship can all contribute.A depressed dad will play and smile less with his child.Children are deeply affected by paternal postnatal depression with studies showing poorer measures of wellbeing and more behavioral problems at the age of seven.Fathers who sense they may be struggling and partners,relatives or friends who notice an increase in imitability and anxiety in a man in the first year of parenthood (paternal depression is more dispersed throughout the first 12 months)should consider the possibility of paternal postnatal depression.Cognitive behavioral therapy(认知行为疗法)can help,as can antidepressants.If the depression is not recognised,says Psouni,"one of most terrible things is that you catch up with yourself a year later and realise you have been really down and struggling-and the first year of your child's life has gone."3.What is revealed about men according to a Sweden research?______A. They experience a sharp decline in hormone.B. Many of them suffer from postnatal depression.C. They seldom go through pregnancy or childbirthD. Many of them qualify for the transition to fatherhood.4.What do the statistics in Paragraph 2 indicate?______A. The researchers should invite more Swedish fathers.B. Over half of Swedish fathers tend to harm themselves.C. The mental health of fathers deserves more attention.D. Postnatal depression affects British women more easily.5.Why did Psouni's research show higher levels of depression in dads?______A. Researchers use a new measure for male symptom of depression.B. Researchers adopt EPDS to accurately pick up depression in dads.C. Fathers have trouble in coping with internal and external pressures.D. Fathers are often faced with the doubled risk of partner depression.6.What may happen to a father with paternal depression?______A. He may develop terrible behavioral habits.B. He may avoid being recognized with depression.C. He may decline cognitive behavioral therapy.D. He may miss the chance of giving proper childcare.CCane toads,also known as buffo toads,are yet anotherinvasive(入侵)species that has found a hospitable home inwarm southern Florida.Deliberately introduced from South andCentral America in the 1930s they were supposed to controlbeetles damaging the sugarcane crop-that's how they got the name"cane toads".Cane toads can pose a particular danger because the adult ones shoot toxin(毒素)from their back when attacked.The tiny toads don't carry enough toxin to be deadly yet,but big adult ones can easily send a dog into a seizure(疾病发作)or even kill it.The toxin is" very viscous and would stick inside the dog's mouth,"says Steve Johnson,a wildlife ecologist at the University of Florida.Owners should try to wipe out an affected dog's mouth and immediately take it to the vet.Tilford started Toad Busters in 2017.The woman who lived there had nine cats,which she fed by dumping almost a bag of cat food every night.Cane toads normally eat bugs,but they are happy to eat pet food,too.Cane toads have adapted beautifully to the Florida suburbs,so a lot of Tilford's work also involves getting people to rethink their suburban backyard.No more cat food.for example .Pet poop(粪便)can also attract insects,which can in turn attract toads.As do lights And toads love to breed(繁殖)in attractive pools of water,such as the lake in the affected Palm Beach Garden neighborhood.For" these larger communities that want to build these beautiful ponds and want to have houses on ponds,"Tilford said,"this is almost a pest-control service."The cane toads aren't going away,but they can be managed like mosquitoes or rats.Dealing with toads amounts to an annoying thing in Florida,but they can also create more dramatic problems.In Australia-where they were also deliberately introduced in the 1930s to protect sugarcane-they are a genuine scourge (灾祸).The issue is that Australia has no native toad species,so none of the predators(食肉动物)knew how to avoid the toxic toads.As the cane toads advanced east to west across the continent,"they left a wake of dead animals in their paths,"says Sean Doody,an ecologist at the University of South Florida at St.Petersburg who has studied cane toads in Australia.Turtles,lizards,and crocodiles just started dying out,which was good news for their prey(受害者)" If you were a small species that was previously being eaten,suddenly you're on a honeymoon,says Rick Shine,a biologist at Macquarie University in Sydney,Australia,who has also studied the impact of cane toads on Australian wildlife.7.What can cane toads be described as?______A. Invasive species introduced to South America..B. Natural enemies of beetles damaging sugarcaneC. Dangerous species making active attacks on dogs.D. A great threat presented to some wildlife ecologists.8.Which might be the proper way of avoiding cane toads according to Tilford?______A. Abandon the suburban backyard.B. Light up the backyard at night.C. Control the number of large houses.D. Keep pet food away from backyard.9.What happened in Australia after cane toads being introduced?______A. Cane toads destroyed some food chains.B. Most of the predators died of toad toxin.C. Cane toads bred at a much slower pace.D. Big species learned to avoid cane toads.DSome of the greatest moments in human history were fueled by emotional intelligence.When Martin Luther King.Jr.presented his dream,he chose language that would stir the hearts of his audience.Delivering this electrifying(震撼性的)message required emotional intelligence-the ability to recognize,understand,and manage emotions.Emotional intelligence has been highly recommended by leaders,policymakers,and educators as the solution to a wide range of social problems.If we can teach our children to manage emotions,the argument goes,we'll have less bullying and more cooperation.If we can cultivate emotional intelligence among leaders and doctors,we'll have more caring workplaces and more compassionate healthcare.Emotional intelligence is important,but the uncontrolled enthusiasm has obscured (掩盖)a dark side.New evidence shows that when people sharpen their emotional skills,they become better at manipulating (把持)others.When you're good at controlling your own emotions,you can hide your true feelings.When you know what others are feeling,you can motivate them to act against their own best interests.Social scientists have begun to document this dark side of emotional intelligence.In a research led by University of professor Jochen Menges,when a leader gave an inspiring speech filled with emotion.the audience was less likely to scrutinize (细察)the message and remembered of the content.Ironically(讽刺的是)audience members were so moved by the speech that they claimed to recall more of it.The authors call this the awestruck effect,but it might just as easily be described as the dumbstruck effect.One observer reflected that Hitler's persuasive impact came from his ability to strategically express emotions-he would "ear open his heart-and these emotions affected his followers to the point that they would"stop thinking critically and just emote." Leaders who master emotions can rob us of our capacities to reason.If their values are out of step with our own.the results can be destructive.New evidence suggests that when people have self-serving motives (动机),emotional intelligence becomes a weapon for manipulating others.In a study led by the University of Toronto psychologist Stephane Cote ,university employees filled out a survey about their Machiavellian(不择手段的)tendencies,and took a test measuring their knowledge about effective strategies for managing emotions.Then,Cote's team assessed how often the employees deliberately undermined (逐渐削弱)their colleagues.The employees involved in the most harmful behaviors were Machiavellians with high emotional intelligence.They used their emotional skills to lower the dignity of their peers for personal gain.Shining a light on this dark side of emotional intelligence is one mission of a research team led University College London professor Martin Kilduff.According to these experts,emotional intelligence helps people disguise (伪装)one set of emotions while expressing another for personal Professor Kiiduit's team writes,""The strategic disguise of one's own emotions and the manipulation of others' emotions for strategic ends are behaviors evident not only on Shakespeare's stage but also in the offices and corridors where power and influence aretraded."Of course,people aren't always using emotional intelligence for nefarious ends.More often than not,emotional skills are simply instrumental tools for goal accomplishment.A research team discovered that founder Anita Roddick used emotional intelligence to inspire her employees fundraise for charity.As Roddick explained,"Whenever particular project we always tried to break their hearts we wanted to persuade our staff to support a particular project we always tried to break their hearts."There is growing recognition that emotional intelligence--like any skill--can be used for good or evil.So if we're going to teach emotional intelligence in schools and develop it at work,we need to consider the values that go along with it and where it's actually useful.10.Why does the author mention Martin Luther King,Jr?______A.

Long before mobile phones or even photography,diaries were kept as a way to understand oneself and the world in which one lives.In the 18th and 19th centuries, as diaries became more popular,middle-class New Englanders, particularly white women,wrote about their everyday lives and the world around them.These diaries were not a place into which they poured their innermost thoughts and de sires, but rather a place to chronicle(记录)the social world around them.The diaries captured the everyday routines of mid-19th-century life,and women diarists in particular focused not on themselves but on their families and their communities.Diaries today are, for the most part, private.But things were different for these New England diaries.Young women who were married would send their diaries home to their parents as a wa y of maintaining kin(血缘)relations. When family or friends came to visit,it was not uncommon to sit down and go through one's journal together.Diaries are not the only media that people have used to document lives and share them with others. We have long used media like photo albums,baby books and even slide shows as a means of creating traces(痕迹) of our lives. We do this to understand ourselves and to see trends in our behaviour.We create traces as part of our identity and part of our memory.Sharing everyday life events can strengthen social connection and intimacy(亲密感). For example, you take a picture of your child's first birthday.It is not only a developmental milestone:the photo also strengthen the identity of the family unit itself.The act of taking the photo and proudly sharing it further reaffirms(再次证实)one as a good and attentive parent. n other words,the media traces of others figure in our own identities.Today's social media platforms are, by and large, free to use,unlike historical diaries, which people had to buy. Today, advertising subsidizes(补贴) our use of networked platforms. Therefore,these platforms encourage use of their networks to build larger audiences and to better t arget them.Our pictures, our posts, and our likes are commodified--that is,they are used to create value through increasingly targeted advertising.Instead of social media merely connecting us, it has become a craze(狂热)for information,continually trying to draw us in with the promise of social connectivity--it's someone's b irthday, someone liked your picture, etc.There's a multibillion-dollar industry pulling us into our smartphones,relying on a longstanding human need for communication.The urge to be present on social media is much more complex than simply narcissism (自恋). Social me did of all kinds not only enable people to see their reflections, but to feel their connection as well.Passage outline Supporting detailsFeatures of(1)______ media People kept (2)______ to understand themselves and the world they live in.Middle-class Englanders,especially white women diarists focused o n their families and communities.It was common for young married women t o (3)______ their diaries with family members or friends.(4)______ of media We have long used media to partly show(5)______ we are and we have experienced inour lives .Sharing daily life events can make familymembers (6) ______ to each other .Present situation of media Today's social media platforms can be usedfor (7) ______ .Private data about us are used as (8)______ through targeted advertising .Social media are trying to draw more people in by (9)______ to their need for communication .Conclusion People are greatly interested in the use of social media for narcissism and social (10)______ .五、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)52.请根据你对以下两幅图的理解,以"Many Hands Make Light Work ."为题,用英语写一篇作文.参考词汇:wind-blown trees (被风刮倒的树) lift up (扶起来)你的作文应包括以下内容:1.简要描述两幅图的内容;2.概述你对两幅图中不同做法的理解;3.举例说明两幅图对你的启示.注意:1. 短文应该包括以上所提供的主要信息,可适当发挥;2. 词数:150 左右;3. 作文中不得提及有关考生个人身份的任何信息,如校名、人名等.Many Hands Make Light Work答案和解析1.【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】D【解析】BD3.【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】C【小题3】A【小题4】D【解析】1.B.文章主旨题.通览全文和第二段的This latest research tries to quantify just how many men get postnatal(产后)depression.可知这篇文章在讲对于男性产后抑郁的研究以及可能的后果,故选B,他们中很多都受此困扰.2.C.细节理解题.根据第二段的最后一句话,the mental health of fathers is rarely assessed .可知,父亲的精神健康值得更多的关注.故选C.3.A,细节了解题.根据第三段The lead author of the Swedish paper, Elisa Psouni, from the department of psychology at Lund University,says the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS)used for both women and men is not so accurate in picking up depression in fathers.可知,P 之所以可以获得更精确的实验结果是因为之前那套测量标准EPDS不完善,P采用了一套新的测量标准增加了更多的项目,所以实验结果更加准确,故选A.4.D.细节理解题.根据最后一段one of most terrible things is that you catch up with yourself a year later and realise you have been really down and struggling-and the first year of your child's life has gone.可知,爸爸们在经历了产后抑郁后可能会错过孩子们最美好的第一年,无法很好地照顾孩子,故选D.这篇文章主要介绍对于男性产后抑郁的研究以及可能的后果,我们应该给他们足够的关心.阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题的时候,根据文章的句子做出合理的推理.7.【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】D【小题3】A【解析】1.B.细节理解题.根据文章第一段Deliberately introduced from South and Central America in the 1930s they were supposed to control beetles damaging the sugarcane crop-that's how they got the name "cane toads可知BuffoTowads的描述是甲虫破坏甘蔗的天敌;故选B.2.D.细节理解题.根据文章第三段The woman who lived there had nine cats,which she fed by dumping almost a bag of cat food every night.Cane toads normally eat bugs, but they are happy to eat pet food, too可知根据Tilford,将宠物食物远离后院可能是避免BuffoTowads的正确方法;故选D.3.A.细节理解题.根据文章最后一段If you were a small species that was previously being eaten,suddenly you're on a honeymoon, says Rick Shine,a biologist at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia,who has also studied the impact of cane toads on Australian wildlife可知在引入蔗糖后,澳大利亚BuffoTowads摧毁了一些食物链;故选A.本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了BuffoTowads被引进澳大利亚后因为没有天敌破坏了很多食物链考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.10.【答案】【小题1】C【小题2】B【小题3】C【小题4】A【小题5】A【小题6】D【解析】(1).C.(2).B.(3).C.(4).A.(5).A.(6).D.考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.16.【答案】B【解析】本题考查实义动词.update 更新;校正,修正;使现代化;accompany 陪伴,伴随;伴奏;establish 建立,创立;确立;identify 确定;鉴定;识别,辨认出.根据句意:您的护照申请表应附两张近照.意思是护照申请表和照片都需要.故选:B.---女士,填好护照申请表就行了吗?---您的护照申请表应附两张近照.考查实义动词的辨析.动词辨析注重考查考生结合语境准确选用动词的能力.平时要求学生注重积累,掌握动词词组的搭配,结合语境,才能选出正确答案.17.【答案】D【解析】本题考查表语从句.通过分析从句的结构可知,从句是一个主谓结构的句子,不缺主语或宾语,排除what;再根据句意"有些企业主热衷于公共福利,这就是地方服务的资金来源",可知,资金是从有些企业的捐助而来的,是获得资金的方式,所以用how来引导该表语从句.故选:D.有些企业主热衷于公共福利,这就是地方服务的资金来源.本题考查表语从句.表语从句是名词性从句的一种,名词性从句的解题步骤如下:第一步判断从句类型,第二步分析从句的结构,先看结构是否完整,再看意义是否完整,第三步根据从句所缺的成分,选择正确的连接词.18.【答案】C。

In 2012, he and hisfamily were inspired to build and donate a bunk bed, one bed on top of the other, after learning there werelocal children who slept on the floor. Shocked to discover how widespread this need was in his community,Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need.Born and raised in Idaho, Mickelson, now 41, had a thriving career. He coached his kids’and fished in the nearby river. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful lifechanged course.Using safety guidelines and his daughter’s bunk bed as a model, Mickelson started buying wood and supplies to build beds with his own money. He recruited friends and family members to help around theholiday. As word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities flooded—along withThe nextMickelson’s bunk bed output. “That first project, we built 11 bunk beds in my garage,” he sa year, we did 15. Then it doubled every year. In 2017, we built 612 bunk beds.”With the motto “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town”, the nonprofit and its more than 65 branches have built and delivered more than 1,500 free beds to children across America. But along with the rapidgrowth, Mickelson was faced with a tough choice: advancing his career or his nonprofit. He chose the latterand went from making “great money to zero money”. He’s never looked back. “I found that the nee isn’t financial,” he said. “The need I have is seeing the joy on kids’ faces, knowing that I can difference.”4.

They volunteered to buy beds with their own money.to the nonprofit?7. What is Mickelson’s attitudeA. AmbiguousB. Defensive.C. Cautious.D. Positive.CLearning how to face silence in conversation is an important skill especially when working acrosscultures.In international negotiations, experienced negotiator (谈判者) stay silent and impassive on purposebecause that will make others feel uncomfortable and possibly make compromises without having to doanything. Americans especially can’t stand silence, so they often are the first to break the silence and sometimes might be at a disadvantage in negotiations.So what’s the best response? Set your jaw and wait it out. Don’t offer a compromise just becauseare not speaking. If you have to say something, ask a direct question, such as “What’s your in to that offer?” Once a silence is getting into 45 seconds you could say, “Let’s come back to t and go on with the next part of our negotiation.”In presentations, silence can be far more effective than dramatic passion (热情). Before starting, lookat the audience and be silent for a moment because that says, “I’m in control. I know what I’m confident.”A classic example was when Apple co-founder Steve Jobs launched the first iPhone. He introduceds. Because silence makes us nervous, our naturalwith many pauses so that you didn’t miss his key pointreaction is that we’d better pay attention, there’s something going on here.Equally, when giving a speech to staff or trainees, pauses count-especially if there are negatives. If youspoon feeding. Give people a moment of silence to get beyond the emotional responsekeep talking you’reand to start thinking consciously and processing.Silence can be an inward-focused thoughtful activity or an outward stillness where you give yourselfthe time to watch and think and listen to the world around you. Having observed the use of silence inFinland and also among the Blackfeet Nation, a North American Indian tribe in northern Montana in the US,we can see benefits far beyond wheeling and dealing.Silence can be a very powerful point for understanding ourselves, understanding others, fordeveloping better common understanding and more productive outcomes and that applies to business,politics, education, law, medicine, every area of human life.8.

Nowsome companies are shortening the working week to increase efficiency, health and happiness.Rich Leigh has introduced a four-day week at his PR company. In fact, his entire company has Fridayoff, because his firm has adopted a four-day week. It is one of a handful of UK businesses that now operatelike this: staff still get paid their previous five-day salary, but they work a day less. The company found thatthey achieved just as much—and there were even sighs of growth. “The key to the scheme’s success, Leigh says, “is how happy our employees now are.”The average British worker takes only a 34 minute lunch break and works 10 hours overtime eachweek (more often than not this is unpaid). Yet UK productivity falls seriously behind their Europeanneighbors, who tend to work fewer hours.British working practices have caused loss and damage to the nation’s health and happiness. Mo than half a million workers in the UK were signed off with work-related stress or anxiety last year.Moreover, the work landscape itself is changing. Automation and AI will have a significant impact on thelabor market, where unsteady work becomes more common.Britain is the only EU member that allows workers to ignore the EU working time limit and worklonger ho urs. For campaigners, now is the time for a change. O’Grady, an advocate, argues that where businesses have increased their profits as a result of automation, success should be shared with workers inits from new technology, not allowing those at thethe form of reduced hours. “It’s time to share the beneftop to grab them for themselves.” she says.12.

Le RedoutableBA single ticket bought in Massachusetts won ﹩758.7 million in Wednesday's Powerball draw.The lucky ticket holder correctly matched the numbers 6,7,16,23 and 26 with the Powerball 4 to win the second biggest lottery prize in US history,and the largest won by a single ticket.Whoever won must have been having a lucky day as the odds of matching all six numbers are one in 292.2 million.The winner has to pay around 40% taxes on the nearly jackpot(头彩),but will still likely walk away with around 300 million,which they will be more than happy with.That's if they choose the "annuity option(保障养老金选项)" which sees their wings being split up into 30 payments over 29 years.If they go for one lump sum (one time payment),they're lookingat a win of ﹩480.5 million.The jackpot came nearly two months after the last Powerball win in June 14,when it stood at 40 million.Powerball officials told ABC an estimated 170 million would be sold between Saturday and Wednesday night's draw.The biggest ever Powerball jackpot win was in January 2016 whenthree winning tickets split ﹩1.6 billion.The Massachusetts State Lottery managed to add even more drama after giving the wrong store and location of where the winning ticket was bought,leading to even more mysteries about who has that golden ticket.After initially claiming the ticket was sold at a shop in Watertown,just outside Boston,they later correctly confirmed that it had in fact been bought at a Pride Station Store in Chicopee,North of Springfield.A spokesperson for Pride Station said they had been told at around 8 am,with Michael Sweeney,the lottery's executive director confirming they will receivearound ﹩50,000 for selling the winning ticket.As for the actual winner,their identity remains a mystery and according to the Star Tribune,by midmorning they still hadn't come forward to claim the prize.If you bought a ticket in Massachusetts,it might be time to check your ticket.18.The underlined word "odds" in Paragraph 2 may be closest to ______ in meaning.A. chancesB. differencesC. ratiosD. scales19.If the winner chooses the "annuity option",how much will he pay for taxes?______A. ﹩300 million.B. ﹩480.5 million.C. ﹩458.7 million.D. ﹩780.5million.20.Which of the following is true according to the passage?______A. The winner claimed the prize at a Pride Station &Store in Chicopee on Wednesday.B. The State Lottery declared the wrong spot deliberately where the winning ticket wasbought.C. The winner bought the winning ticket with $50,000 two months ago in Watertown.D. The lottery prize of the winning ticket is second only to that in 2016 in US history.CWilliam Happer,a physics professor and outspoken critics of mainstream climate science,has joined the White House as a top adviser.Happer,79,told E&E News in email that he began serving yesterday on the National Security Council as the senior director for emerging technologies.NSC officials confirmed Happer's new role but declined to provide further detail about the appointment,which VNN first reported.When asked about his new NSC role,Happer said he would do his best to ensure that federal policy decisions "are based on sound science and technology".A retired physics professor at Princeton University and a former Energy Department official under former President George H.W.Bush's administration in the 1990s,Happer is well-known for his public criticism of mainstream climate modeling and his ties to the Trump administration.①Happer told The scientist that the significance of climate changes has been "tremendously exaggerated" and has "become sort of a cult(邪教)movement in the last five or ten years." Happer also said Presidents Trump,who has referred to climate change as a trick,agreed with his assessment.②Happer,who is not a climate scientist by training,is known in physics for his development in the 1980s of the sodium guide star(钠导星)that was initially used for missile defense technology and has now gained broader application in astronomy.According to his Princeton biography,he's credited as one of the pioneers in the field of optically polarized(光学极化的)atoms.③Happer has accused both NOAA and NASA of controlling temperature records and claimed that higher concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would emphasize plant life,citing satellite data showing a greening of the planet.④"The public,in general,doesn't realize that from the point of view of geological history,we are in a CO2famine," he told E&E News during the interview in January.Many researchers say other impacts of climate change,such as rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns,have a negative impact on plant life and that higher CO2 levels may not be a benefit to all plants,even in the short term.Happer told E&E News in January that he supported Trump's decision to pull the United Statesout of the Paris climate accord but said he wished the president had focused on how the agreement "did not make scientific sense".Trump had cast the agreement as harmful to the US economy.21.Which of the following statements about Happer is true?______A. He is an official in the Energy Department under Trump's administration.B. He is added to White House staff for he is well-trained climate scientist.C. As a physics professor,he was dedicated to the research into astronomy.D. He is well-known as an outspoken critic of mainstream climate modeling.22.The sentence "But his criticism of climate science stands out." is most likely to be putback to ______ .A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④23.About CO2 in the atmosphere,which of the following is closest to Happer's opinion?______A. Increasing CO2 is not a major problem facing the world now.B. The lower concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere,the better plant life.C. In terms of geological history,the planet is not exactly short of CO2.D. Lower CO2 levels will surely contribute to a greener planet in the future.24.What is the best title of this passage?______A. Trump adds William Happer,a climate science critic,to White House staffB. Co2 is no longer a big threat to the planet as far as it goesC. William Happer's criticism of mainstream climate scienceD. The negative impact of CO2 on planet life on the earthDIt felt like a disaster when my washing machine broke last winter.Just one week of cleaning the kids' football kits in the bath left me with an aching back,itchy fingers and a deep mould darkening the boards of the bathroom floor.But the short-term trials of 21st-century housekeeping are thrown into sharp relief by Beezy Marsh's absorbing new book about her grandmother,Annie Austin,one of 1,000 women employed in the slum(贫民窟)laundries of London back in 1918.Although the Fisher Act of 1918 made it compulsory for children to attend school under the age of 14,Annie was just 12 when she began work in the coal-stained streets of Acton.Her pregnant mother and bossy stepfather already worked there and they had her grandmother and weak-chested younger brother George to support.Before the National Health Service,a doctor's bills could break a family.Sweet Lavender,Honeysuckle Villa and Blanchisserie Royal --- the laundries all had picture-postcard names to give their wealthy customers the illusion of clean country air.But there was no rural scenery behind the wet windows of the sweatshops where little girls scrubbed dirt from collars and sleeve openings from 8 am to 8 pm every weekday,working half-day on Saturdays.Marsh,a journalist,writes with novelistic talent.She makes you smell the sickening smell of the dirty clothes and feel the pain of soaps in the open wound of Annie's cracked and swollen fingers.And she also makes you feel the pride that these women took in the honest,hard work that kept their families above the breadlines.Annie's mother,Emma,was the laundry's chief ironer.She lifted ten-pound irons around to press the pleated(有褶的)silk of the finest clothes.But Emma was keeping secrets behind her clean appearance.She had told Annie her father had been killed in the Great War,but it that was the case,then why was his photo graphhidden at the bottom of her button box?Her seeking for the truth revealed a tale of gambling,debt,betrayal and murder.As Marsh discovered,"The choices made by one generation were sometimes considered too shocking for the next generation to bear."Annie's adventures find her visiting the dens(贼窝)of backstreet abortionists,the homes of bullied EasternEuropean immigrants and the pubs of Covent Garden.There are also enjoyable details of Annie's love affairs with the handsome actor who takes her out for champagne at the Café de Paris in a borrowed fox-fur coat and her slower burning romance with Geordie union man,Harry.When Harry kneels beside the Thames and offer her a ring of seed pearls and sapphire(蓝宝石),Annie thinks it is the most beautiful thing she has ever seen.25.The author's purpose in writing the first paragraph is to.______A. lead in by relating her experience to that of Annie AustinB. describe her experience in the absence of washing machineC. get readers to buy the new book written by Beezy MarshD. describe the living conditions of 21st-century housekeepers26.Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase "thrown into sharp relief" inParagraph 2?______A. made very unbearableB. made very noticeableC. made very insignificantD. made very enjoyable27.What can be learned about Annie's family?______A. She began to work after finishing compulsory education.B. Her younger brother had some problems with his heart.C. Her family pulled through thanks to the National Health Service.D. Her father probably got murdered due to his debts from gambling.28.According to Paragraph 5 and 6,it can be concluded that ______ .A. the laundries would send their customers postcards as giftsB. the laundries didn't have countryside scenery insideC. the laundries were located in rural areas with clean airD. the laundries then pitilessly exploited the little girls29.Which of the following words best describe Annie?______A. Tough and brave.B. Honest and optimistic.C. Proud and patientD. Romantic and talented.30.By writing the passage,the author aims to ______ .A. describe Beezy Marsh's grandmother's life in a laundryB. describe how Beezy Marsh's grandmother sought for the truthC. describe Beezy Marsh's remarkable writing skillsD. introduce Beezy Marsh's book about her grandmother三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共20.0分)A few days ago,I observed a teenager doing yardwork that his dad had told him to do.Instead of doing the task(31),he wandered around there for hours,(32) to himself and doing a bad job.The person he hurt the most was himself.His dad was trying to teach him(33) and how to do a good job.As a result of his(34) attitude,he spent the whole afternoon finishing a task that should have taken one or two hours.And the yard(35) wasn't clean enough when he got through.He(36) his day because of his attitude.And his dad was(37) with him,and the boy' s bad mood ended up(38) the whole family that day.A sweet lady was working in a fast-food(39).The minute I walked in,she welcomedme(40).She smiled as she took my order,and then as we(41) for the food,she talked with me.As I walked off with my tray,she said with a big(42),"I hope you have a blessed day!"I think the food tasted better because of her(43).There was a delay,during which I sat there hearing her singing as she(44) her tasks behind the counter.She wasn't making a large salary,and she didn't have a powerful(45),either.In addition,she stood on her feet for a long shift each day,often dealing with(46) customers.But she chose to be joyful.I want to(47) from her.I want to do my best,even when there's no(48) or glory.Other people are watching me(49) I might not realize it at the time.I want to bring joy to all those around me.A(n)(50) can make a great difference.31.

can benefit the locals,since tourists bring culture with them.Tourism may help to preserve local customs,as when traditional shows,parades,celebration and festivals are put on for tourists.The musicals,plays and serious drama of London theatres and other kinds of nightlife are largely supported by tourists.Such events might disappear without the stimulus of tourism to maintain them.On the other hand,tourism often contributes to the disappearance of local traditions and folk songs.Churches,temples and other similar places are treated as touristattractions.This can be at the expense of their original function:how many tourists want to worship in the middle of a flow of atheist invaders (无神论侵犯者)?Who would want to pray while curious onlookers walk back and forth with guide books,rather than prayer books in their hands?Tourism may bring other indirect cultural consequences.Anxiety which already exists between ancient and more modern ways may be deepened by tourists' ignorance of localcustoms and beliefs.Tourists,if not actually richer,often seem more well-off than natives.The former may therefore feel superior,leaving the latter embarrassed about their lifestyles.The result may be an inferior feeling which hardly helps the sense of identity which is so important to regional culture.The poverty of locality can look even worse when contrasted with the comfortable hotel environment where the average life expectancy is 75 years,may well cause anger in Sierra Leone ,where the localpopulation can expect to live to no more than 41 years.The relative prosperity (繁荣)of tourism may encourage crime.In Gambia,unemployed young people offer to act as guides in return for money.When the tourism season is over they can no longer get wages that way so that they turn to stealing from the locals.All this affects the local social life and culture badly.Culture erosion (侵蚀)can also take place at more unnoticeable levels.Greek villagers traditionally prided themselves on their hospitality (好客).They would put up travelers for free,feeding them and listening to their stories.To take money would have been a disgrace.That has changed now.Tourists exist to be exploited.Perhaps this is hardly surprising if the earnings from one room rented to a tourist can exceed a teacher's

countries want to avoid repeatingthe mistakes happening in history as cooperative partners rather than enemies.故选:D.-作为合作伙伴而不是敌人,两国想要避免什么?-重蹈历史的覆辙.动名词作宾语:a.作某些及物动词的宾语:常见的动词有:advise,avoid,delay,escape,excuse,enjoy,consider,finish,deny,fancy,keep,mind(在乎),postphone,pardon,practise,suggest,imagine等.need,want,require后接动名词,表示被动意义.如:Would
