An advice brochure.BOpen water swimming I had only swum in open water a few times,and always in gentle lakes ,so I wasn't prepared for how rough Lake Windermere appeared on a cold day.A swimmer told me the water felt colder than it had been measured,and that the water was a bit rough.But I,along with 10,000 others,was about to complete the challenge.Most of the people taking part were doing a one-mile race,and 10 races were planned over the weekend.There seemed to be a mix of open-water enthusiasts alongside complete beginners-which is precisely the aim of the swims,to get as many people as possible completing their own challenge.The oldest woman competing was 77,taking part in the two-mile race,alongside a man who last year had swum in every one-mile race.I had chosen the third one-mile race of the day.There were over 600 people in my race.We were taken through an acclimatization area,a children's paddling pool-sized part of the lake where we moved in to feel how cold the water was."Not too bad" was everyone's thought! Then we headed out towards the middle of the lake.We'd been warned that the first 100 metres would be really rough.However,somewhere near the 750m mark I was still waiting for the calm;it felt more like swimming in the sea than a lake.I tried to focus on my breathing and technique,and just keep going.As I approached the 400m-to-go mark my lower right leg became painful.I recalled overhearing people talking about how they kept swimming through the pain,so I tried.But it didn't work.I began to feel the entire leg tight and painful.I didn't want to stop,so I bent my right knee and just kicked with the left leg.Finally I saw the finishing post,and I just concentrated on getting there-still one-legged.My finishing time was 38 minutes 25 seconds but that didn't matter-the atmosphere was fantastic and everyone felt a sense of achievement,whatever their time.I'm hooked,and want to give it another go.I've already signed up for my next open-water swim.4.How did the author feel before the race?______A. Scared of the most challenging race.B. Disappointed by the difficult conditions.C. Concerned about the other swimmers in the race.D. Determined to be as tough as the people around her.5.Why does the author mention the two people in Paragraph 2?______A. To stress the importance of the race.B. To praise the experienced swimmers.C. To show the wide range of the participants.D. To introduce the various events of the race.6.The author suggests in Paragraph 4 that ______ .A. the race would cause breathing problemsB. the race became harder than she had expectedC. it was really necessary to prepare for tough swimsD. it would have been easier if she had taken others' advice7.What does the author talk about in the last paragraph?______A. Her confidence in her own ability.B. Her pride in having swum so quickly.C. Her eagerness to repeat the experience.D. Her surprise at having managed to finish.CThe Alexander techniqueUntil earlier this year, I didn′t know anything about the Alexander technique—and saw no reason to think I should. One day, the backache I regularly suffered was more painful. I was brought up to think that the preferred way of dealing with aches is to do nothing and hope they′ll go away, but I eventually went to the doctor. After examining me, he said, "You actually have bad posture(姿势). Go off and learn the Alexander technique." Three months later I could walk straighter and sit better.The Alexander technique is a way of learning how you can get rid of harmful tension in your body. The teaching focuses on the neck, head and back. It trains you to use your body less severely and carry out the movements that we do all the time with less effort. There is little effort in the lessons themselves, which sets apart the Alexander technique from yoga or pilates(普拉提课程), which are exercise-based. A typical lesson involves standing in front of a chair and learning to sit and stand with minimum effort. You spend some time lying on a bench with your knees bent to straighten the spine(脊椎) and relax your body while the teacher moves your arms and legs to train you to move them correctly.The technique helps to break the bad habits accumulated over years. Try folding your arms the opposite way to normal. This is all example of a habit the body has formed which can be hard to break. Many of us carry our heads too far back. The head weighs four to six kilos, so any inappropriate posture can cause problems for the body. The technique teaches you to let go of the muscles holding the head back, allowing it to go back to its natural place on the top of our spines.So who was Alexander and how did he come up will the technique? Frederick Alexander, an Australian actor born in 1869, found in his youth that he had vocal(声音的) problems during performances. He analyzed himself and realized his posture was bad. He worked on improving it, with excellent results. He brought his technique to London and opened a teacher-training school, which is still successful today.So if you're walking along the road one day with shoulders bent forward, feeling weighed down by your troubles, give a thought to the Alexander technique. It will help you walk tall again.8.What does the author suggest in Paragraph 1?A. She felt no better after the treatment.B. She got bored with the Alexander technique.C. She was skeptical about the doctor′s method.D. She was unwilling to seek treatment for her backache.9.What is the principle of the Alexander technique?A. Physical tension shouldn't be completely relieved.B. The technique shouldn′t be combined with other exercises.C. The practice of the technique shouldn′t be attempted alone.D. Familiar physical actions shouldn′t be done with much effort.10.What can we learn about Frederick Alexander?A. He managed to recover his vocal powers.B. He was eager to make a name for himself.C. He developed a form of exercise for actors.D. He had to leave home to develop his technique.11.What is the main idea of the passage?A. The occurrence of back pain is widespread.B. Alexander improved the technique to treat body pain.C. The Alexander technique helps overcome posture problems.D. People with back pain are victims of inappropriate postures.DDon't put it off,do it now! Why do we spend so much time not doing the work we should do,or putting off small jobs that have piled up to create a big problem?Procrastinating,as putting things off like this is called,is in our character we have naturally since birth;we avoid dull or difficult jobs until it's too late to do anything else."We often put things off although we know it will make life more stressful," says Dr.Steel ,an authority on the science of motivation."If these tasks were fun,we'd just do them now.We put off what is difficult or unpleasant,such as the paperwork that needs doing before leaving the office or cleaning the bits of your home that people can't see.But the fact is,the less people procrastinate,the more money they have,the better relationships they have,and the healthier they are." This is obvious when you look at the couples who don't argue about whether anyone has cleaned the kitchen,and the people who simply go for a run instead of endlessly rescheduling it in their heads.Of course,there are the rest of us,who feel the small jobs piling up around us daily."We've evolved to respond to the moment,and not to set our sights too far in an uncertain world," Dr.Steel adds."We are not set up to appreciate long-term rewards,whether it's the benefit of a four-year degree,doing exercise or dieting.We usually feel the cost now and the reward comes much later." According to Dr.Steel,we have two decision-making systems.They are the limbic,which is responsible for the short term,and the prefrontal cortex,which deals with the future.We bounce between long-term goals and short-term temptations,so we need goals that will translate our plans for the limbic system.Let's take the example of students' writing essays.They should set themselves targets and word counts per day.These are thus turned from seemingly endless tasks into something concrete with measured progress.Dr.Steel recommends such techniques,or"pre-commitments",adding that leaving you a month before the "deadline" makes it more likely a task will be completed.The benefit is that you'll avoid the embarrassment of not following up on something people are expecting you to do-telling everyone you are going to take up jogging makes you more likely to do so.Overcoming procrastination finally comes down to planning,which,if you're not careful,becomes procrastination in itself.But it is worth making sure you have everything in place."Successful people don't pretend they don't procrastinate," Dr.Steel says."People who pretend they have willpower are less successful." Instead,plan for procrastination:make your work environment a temple of productivity by cutting out what stops you paying your attention,so you can really focus on moving forward.12.What does the author say about procrastination in Paragraph 1?______A. It is something many people can't help.B. It is an excuse people often use in public.C. It is caused by the technology in people's life.D. It is more common when people have small jobs to do.13.In paragraph 3,Dr.Steel believes that people who procrastinate should ______ .A. attempt to overcome their natural tendenciesB. take the advice of others in the same situationC. be aware that their problem is relatively smallD. find out more about the way they make decisions14.Why does Dr.Steel recommend making "pre-commitments" in Paragraph 4?______A. They are an alternative to impossible goals.B. They make challenges feel more manageable.C. They are an effective way of impressing others.D. They allow people to achieve their aims sooner.15.What does the author do by saying the underlined sentence?______A. Encourage the reader to develop plans effectively.B. Advise the reader to deal with complex tasks quickly.C. Warn the reader against spending too long getting organized.D. Remind the reader to take the time to focus properly on a task.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Films and computer games In just a few decades the gaming industry has become much bigger than the film business.What is called "interactive entertainment" makes more money than Hollywood cinema.Is there any way of making films more appealing to people who like to play computer games?Making a film out of a best-selling computer game can guarantee a large audience.(1) Nowadays films are made with similar ones.They have attractive action scenes relying on fantasy effects as well.Gaming markets consist of science-fiction games,and film-makers have also set films in science-fiction worlds.(2) Any attempt to borrow more than the setting from a game is certain to fail.Why do gamers feel disappointed by films based on their favorite games?One of the reasons is technical.Now everything can be computer-produced.(3) However,filming a scene from 20 different cameras would cost a fortune,so it simply isn't done in the filmversion-leaving the gamers feeling that the film didn't look as real as the computer game.(4) In a film the director doesn't show you some things to keep you have the feeling of excitement or anxiety.For example,you wouldn't be interested in watching the film if you knew the identity of the murderer.But this is not true for computer games.When you play a game,you have to do certain tasks to continue to the new level.(5) You are always in control as a player,while in the cinema you never control the action.You just sit and watch .There can be some interaction between films and computer games on different levels.For all the similarities between technologies and special effects,we shouldn't forget that a story and a game are fundamentally different.A.Cameras matter in another sense,too.B.The success of a game usually lies in the use of special effects.C.You can't influence what happens at all in the computer games.D.Computer games may show the action from a number of views easily.E.The game has a good chance of being as successful as the film on which it is based.F.You must be able to have access to all the information in order to decide what to do next.G.However,the difficulty for film producers appears to be knowing where and when to stop.16.

2020届北京市西城区高考英语二模试卷含答案

高考英语二模试卷一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AIf you've always wanted to start your own herb or vegetable garden but don't have the yard space or the "green thumb" to pull it off,there's now another option.The OGarden Smart is an indoor gardening system that grows up to 90 plants at one time-20 of which are safe to eat.Strawberries,green beans,peppers,green onions,and cherry tomatoes are just a few of the fruits and vegetables the OGarden can grow.Up to 30 potted plants can be placed on a lower shelf,where the seeds are allowed to germinate (发芽).Once they germinate,the plants can then be moved to the turning wheel up above,which holds up to 60 plants at a time.It takes about 30 to 40 days to harvest the produce,depending on the type of plant grown.The system is self-watering and uses automatic LED lights to provide the right amount of sunlight,no matter what season it is.The only work that's required is planting the seeds and refilling the water tank once a week.The OGarden Smart is the second product introduced by company co-founders Pierre Nibart and Pierre-Etienne Bourget,of Quebec,Canada.The original OGarden appeared in 2017,and the Smart upgrade adds a few new features,including automatic watering,automatic LED lighting,and a water warning system.Some reviewers of the original OGarden commented that the system is easy to use,and that the vegetables taste better thanstore-bought produce.The OGarden Smart will set you back ﹩859 Canadian dollars (about ﹩650 USD)if you orderit on Kickstarter at a discounted rate,but the company's founders are quick to point out that it will help you save money in the long-run.The system lets you grow organic (有机的)produce at a small part of the price you'd pay at your local grocery store.To see some of the buying options available,check out the project's Kickstarter page.Any orders that are placed will be delivered this May.1.What is the OGarden Smart?______A.

He had stayed to protect what was left of his home,and never gave up on his people!" Sullivan wrote in the comment on her Facebook post."I'm so happy I'm crying as I write this! He didn't give up through the storms or the fire!" she added.Soon afterward,Madison was reunited with Miguel for the first time since the fire broke out.An emotional Gaylord said in an interview with the network that she was overcome with joy to see Madison waiting for her.She also expressed how grateful she was to Sullivan.Gaylord said fighting through tears,"You could never ask for better animals.He is the best dog."4.What did Madison do during the Camp Fire?______A.

Wisdom.CChoosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it,researchers at The University of Texas at Austin discovered through neuroimaging (神经成像).These findings,published in the Journal of Neuroscience,suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience,more attention should be focused on it.This surprising result continues previous research on intentional forgetting,which focused on reducing attention tothe unwanted information through redirecting attention away from unwanted experiences or holding back the memory's retrievals (恢复)."We may want to get rid of memories that cause nonadaptive responses,such as upsetting memories,so that we can respond to new experiences in more adaptive ways," said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock,the study's senior author and an assistant professor of psychology at UT Austin."Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to voluntarily forget something,but how our brains do that is still being questioned.Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and design ways to control this,we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories."Using neuroimaging to track patterns of brain activity,the researchers showed a group of healthy adults images of scenes and faces,instructing them to either remember or forget each image.Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget,but that successful intentional forgetting required "moderate (适中的)levels" of brain activity in these sensory and perceptual areas (感官区域)-more activity than what was required to remember."A moderate level of brain activity is critical to this forgetting mechanism.Too strong,and it will strengthen the memory;too weak,and you won't change it," said Tracy Wang,lead author of the study and a psychology postdoctoral fellow at UT Austin."Importantly,it's the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory,and when this activation hits the ‘moderate level' sweet spot,that's when it leads to later forgetting of that experience." The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces,which can carry much more emotional information,the researchers said."We're learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information,and it will take a lot of further research and replication (重复)of this work before we understand how to control our ability to forget," said Lewis-Peacock,who has begun a new study using neurofeedback to track how much attention is given to certain types of memories."This will make way for future studies on how we process,and hopefully get rid of,those really strong,sticky emotional memories,which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being," Lewis-Peacock said.8.Previous studies on intentional forgetting researched ______ .A. the pattern of brain activityB. the process of recovering a memoryC. the way to reduce attention to unwanted informationD. the amount of attention required by intentional forgetting9.According to Tracy Wang,forgetting is possible when ______ .A. people respond to new experiences in an adaptive wayB. the activation of the memory reaches a certain levelC. people have the strongest intention to forgetD. the information involves more emotion10.Lewis continues his study to find out ______ .A. how to control people's ability to forgetB. where to apply the findings of his team's latest studyC. what effects upsetting memories have on people's healthD. if different types of information requires different levels of attention11.What is the best title of the article?______A. Where does forgetting take place?B. How does attention affect memory?C. Forgetting uses more brain power than rememberingD. Forgetting is far more difficult than we once imaginedDThe new social robots,including Jibo,Cozmo,Kuri and Meccano M.A.X.,bear some resemblance to assistants like Apple's Siri,but these robots come with something more.They are designed to win us over not with their smarts but with their personality.They are sold as companions that do more than talk to us.Time magazine hailed (称赞)the robots that "could fundamentally reshape how we interact with machines." But is reshaping how we interact with machines a good thing,especially for children?Some researchers in favor of the robots don't see a problem with this.People have relationships with many kinds of things.Some say robots are just another thing with which we can have relationships.To support their argument,roboticists sometimes point to how children deal with toy dolls.Children animate (赋予…生命)dolls and turn them into imaginary friends.Jibo,in a sense,will be one more imaginary friend,and arguably a more intelligent and fun one.Getting attached to dolls and sociable machines is different,though.Today's robots tell children that they have emotions,friendships,even dreams to share.In reality,the whole goal of the robots is emotional trickery.For instance,Cozmo the robot needs to be fed,repaired and played with.Boris Sofman,the chief executive of Anki,the company behind Cozmo,says that the idea is to create "a deeper and deeper emotional connection …And if you neglect him,you feel the pain of that." What is the point of this,exactly?What does it mean to feel the pain of neglecting something that feels no pain at being neglected,or to feel anger at being neglected by something that doesn't even know it is neglecting you?This should not be our only concern.It is troubling that these robots try to empathize with children.Empathy allows us to put ourselves in the place of others,to know what they are feeling.Robots,however,have no emotions to share,and they cannot put themselves in our place.No matter what robotic creatures "say" or squeak,they don't understand our emotional lives.They present themselves as empathy machines,but they are missing the essential equipment.They have not been born,they don't know pain,or death,or fear.Robot thinking may be thinking,but robot feeling is never feeling,and robot love is never love.What is also troubling is that children take robots' behavior to indicate feelings.When the robots interact with them,children take this as evidence that the robots like them,and when robots don't work when needed,children also take it personally.Their relationships with the robots affect their self-esteem (自尊).In one study,an 8-year-old boy concluded that the robot stopped talking to him because the robot liked his brothers better.For so long,we dreamed of artificial intelligence offering us not only simple help but conversation and care.Now that our dream is becoming real,it is time to deal with the emotional downside of living with robots that "feel."12.How are the new social robots different from Siri?______A. They are intended to teach children how to talk.B. They are designed to attract people with their smarts.C. Their main function is to evaluate children's personality.D. They have a new way to communicate with human beings.13.In Paragraph 3 Cozmo is used as an example to show that the social robots ______ .A. are deeply connected with human beingsB. are unable to build a real relationship with childrenC. are so advanced that they can feel the pain of human beingsD. are not good enough to carry out the instructions of children14.The underlined phrase "essential equipment" in Paragraph 4 refers to ______ .A. emotionB. painC. fearD. thinking15.Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?______A.B.C.D.
