Currently, the most widely accepted age for the universe is around 13.8 billion years, but determining the age of... well, everything, is no easy feat (功绩). Now, new studies have investigated the question using different methods—and they’ve come up with two different answers, separated by more than a billion years.Because the universe is expanding at an accelerating pace, the further away an object is, the faster it appears to be moving away from us. This is expressed as the Hubble constant (哈勃常数), and it’s a key factor in figuring out the age of the universe. After all, if we can determine how fast objects are moving away from us, we can rewind that process to its beginning—the Big Bang. Researchers from the University of Oregon set out to map the distance to dozens of galaxies. The team calculated that the universe is only 12.6 billion years old—that, you might notice, is much younger than the 13.8 billion years usually stated.In the second study, the method of figuring out the age of the universe is by mapping the oldest light we can detect. “We are restoring the ‘baby photo’ of the universe to its original condition, removing the wear and tear of time and space that distorted (扭曲) the image,” says Neelima Sehgal, a co-author on the study. “Only by seeing this sharper baby photo or image of the universe, can we more fully understand how our universe was born.” In doing so, the researchers determined that the universe is 13.8 billion years old—in agreement with the accepted age.The real problem though, is that the studies disagree so wildly with each other, to the tune of a billion years. But they’re not the only ones—the battle lines are commonly drawn by the methods used. Obviously, more research is needed to determine where the truth lies.24. What do we know about the universe from the first two paragraphs?A. It doesn’t exist long.B. It becomes larger.C. It runs away.D. It causes the Big Bang.25. What makes the researchers in the first study think the universe is much younger?A. The speed of moving objects.B. The number of galaxies.C. The process of the universe evolution.D. The distance to other objects.26. How does Neelima Sehgal explain their method in the second study?A. By referring to a similar thing.B. By using hard scientific data.C. By introducing a new concept.D. By quoting an expert’s words.27. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Whose method is better?B. Which result can you believe?C. How old is the universe?D. Why is the universe so old?CDid you know that the average child has heard the word “no” over 20,000 times before they turn the age of three? Ironically, it is also around this time that children begin to develop enough personal character to refuse to obey. The “terrible twos” are categorized by a lack of understanding. Somewhere between three and four, children begin to acquire the skills to reason. It is during this time they watch how other children and adults reason. If we’re not careful, the children will watch us model a world of “NOs”.By the time a person turns eighteen, how many times have they been told no? I haven’t found any studies that even attempted to track this statistic, but I’m sure if the number is 20,000 by three, then at eighteen that number has multiplied. You can do the math.Anyway, I think I know why we say no. We say no to protect. We say no to direct. We say no to stop potential confusion. However, do we sometimes say no just for the sake of saying no? Do we say no because we have internalized (内在化) all of the “NOs” we’ve heard over the years and we feel it is finally our time to say no to someone else?The internalized no can damage the growth process of dreams in infancy as quickly as it can weaken a three-year-old. And we wonder why we run into people with big, un-accomplished dreams who have a bit of a chip on their shoulder. They have to take on the 20,000 NOs. However, the thing that keeps them going is the possibility of the power of ONE YES! Just as it only takes one book to make a writer a Pulitzer Prize Winner, it only takes one word to change the course of your day. That word is YES!28. What do we know about two-year-olds?A. They understand well.B. They often say no to others.C. They think logically.D. They don’t do all they’re told.29. What effect does saying no have on children?A. They lose all their dreams.B. They aren’t easy to succeed.C. They don’t make mistakes.D. They never say yes to others.30. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to a world of “NOs”?A. Tolerant.B. Disapproving.C. Favourable.D. Carefree.31. What is the text?A. A how-to guide.B. A survey report.C. An opinion essay.D. A short story.DI’m Jeff Logan, president of Logan Luxury Theaters Corporation. I’m very sorry to tell you many cinemas are at risk of closing permanently (永久). That’s something we would hate to see happen.Watching the newest box office movie and eating a big bucket of popcorn is an experience that many of us have enjoyed for a very long time. We all have fond memories of going to a theater of our first dates or the first movie we saw with our children. A movie theater is so important to the fabricof the local community. It’s a place where we all gather, no matter what our interests, and no matter what our ages, young and old, rich and poor.But how much longer will classic theaters remain open? Just like other industries, movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic (流行病) and are going dark. The entire industry is being controlled by the pandemic, because the studios don’t want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open. As we all know, the theaters can’t do well and can’t get back to full 7-day a week at full speed operation without new movies to play.Recently, the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema in Mitchell reopened for the weekends. However, like many theaters, it is only operating at about 10 percent capacity. Since opening, several new safety measures have been put in place. Block off every other row. People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group. Staff spray the theater with disinfectant (消毒剂) after every show. And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.Even so, some people still aren’t comfortable going to a movie theater yet. I fully understand that. Anyhow, I just hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters, like taking part ina new national proposal called “Save Your Cinema.”32. What does the underlined word “fabric” in paragraph 4 refer to?A. Typical feature.B. Basic structure.C. Public support.D. Common vision.33. Why are the film studios unwilling to release the new movies?A. Cinemas don’t operate normally.B. New movies aren’t welcomed.C. People don’t like going to cinema.D. Many cinemas go out of business.34. What can we infer about the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema after its reopening?A. It makes a lot of money.B. It does well in disease prevention.C. It receives a large audience every day.D. It offers more enjoyable experience.35. What is the purpose of this text?A. To share the good old days.B. To explain a social problem.C. To ask for people’s help.D. To recommend a theater.第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The things parents do and say---and the 18 they do and say to them--therefore strongly influence a child's 19 . However, parents must consistently behave like the type of 20 they want their child to become.A parent's actions 21 affect the self-image that a child forms 22 identification. Children who see mainly positive qualities in their 23 will likely learn to see themselves in a positive way.

But if children feel unloved, they may interpret such events 32 a sign of rejection or punishment.In the same way, all children are not influenced 33 by toys and games, reading matter, and television programs. 34 in the case of a dramatic change in family relations, the 35 of an activity or experience depends on how the child interprets it.16.

It was part of the tradition．Pete, too, began to feel as though he himself was now a part of the tradition, and he therefore did not have the courage to tell the old man that he had already eaten．This dinner seemed to mean so much to the Old Gentleman."Thank you, sir, " said Pete at last. “I’ll go wit h you gladly. I’m very hungry, sir.” Together the Old Gentleman and Pete walked south to the same restaurant where each year Pete had his Thanksgiving dinner. The Old Gentleman seemed pleased and happy. When the waiter brought dish after dish of food to Pete, the Old Gentlenman sat quietly and smiled．Under the circumstances, Pete had to eat．It was part of the tradition, and so he ate like a hero, although when he entered the restaurant even the smell of food almost made him sick．At last Pete leaned back with the battle won．" Thank you, sir, " he said, with some effort, " for a fine dinner．"They parted as they did each year at the door, the Old Gentlemen going south, Pete north．Around the corner, Pete stopped for a moment, felt a terrible pain in his stomach, and then fell to the sidewalk unconscious．A little time later an ambulance came．In the hospital they discovered that he had had an attack of indigestion （消化不良）.An hour later, another ambulance brought the Old Gentleman to the same hospital．At first they thought it was also indigestion but later one of the nurses said, "That nice old gentleman over there—you wouldn't think that it was a case of hunger．"40．Where did Pete and the Old Gentleman meet every Thanksgiving Day?A．In the restaurant．B．In Union Square．C．At the Old Gentleman's house．D．At the hospital．41．Which of the following sentences in the passage doesn't show Pete was full?A．Pete sat on the bench now, hardly able to move．B．The buttons on his ragged shirt and coat were about to burst．C．Glad to see that the changes of another year have permitted you to move in health through this beautiful world．D．When he entered the restaurant even the smell of food almost made him sick．42．The underlined sentence "I'm very hungry, sir．" in Paragraph 5 implies that .A．Pete didn't have the heart to refuse the offerB．Pete was so greedy that he wanted to have another dinnerC．Pete was suffering from hungerD．Pete enjoyed having the Thanksgiving dinner for free43．Which of the following words can best describe the Old Gentleman?A．Self-centred.

高三英语限时训练三答案

What do you want to be when you grow up A teacher A doctor How about an ice-cream tasterYes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufactu rers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream — as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道).Some people think that it would be easy to do this job:vc after all, you just have to like ice cream, right No —there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor” Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy — working at one cool job.65. What is John Harrison’s jobA. An official.B. An ice-cream taster.C. A chemist.D. An ice-cream manufacturer.66. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the “cool field”, it is helpful to ______.A. keep a diary of workB. have a degree in related subjectsC. have new ideas every dayD. find out new flavors each day67. What does Harrison do first when testing ice creamA. He stirs the ice cream.B. He examines the color of the ice cream.C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D. He lets the ice cream warm up.68. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passageA. Tasting with EyesB. Flavors of Ice CreamC. John Harrison’s LifeD. One Cool Job答案65. B解析：这是一道推断题。

2021版高三英语一轮复习阅读限时练3Unit3Backtothepast（A卷）牛津译林版必修3(对应学生用书第289页)Ⅰ.阅读明白得A(2021年湖南长沙高三年级统一模拟考试)In between running one of the world's largest charitable agencies and acting as Microsoft's technology advisor, Bill Gates manages to find time to read books, both long and short.Now Gates—who has been labeled a “greedy” reader—has released a list of his favorite books.All of the books are standout reads, according to the billionaire, most of which are focused on business and economy.Here are Bill's top four picks ( with parts of his full review of each book)．Business Adventures, by John BrooksBrooks' collection was published in 1969 and remains one of Gates' favorites.He reread it again this year, labeling it the best business book he has ever read.“Shortly after we met, Warren Buffett lent me this collection of business articles from The New Yorker from the 1950s and 1960s.I loved them as much as he did.Brooks' insights(洞悉力)into business have aged beautifully, and they are as true today as ever.”Capital in the TwentyFirst Century, by Thomas PikettyPiketty's novel hit the shelves in August 2020 and sparked much discussion concerning income inequality throughout this year.Gates also got to sit down with Piketty himself after reading the nonfiction work to di scuss the topic.“As I told him, although I have concerns about some of his secondary points and policy prescriptions, I agree with his most important conclusions：inequality is a growing problem and governments should play a role in reducing it.”How Asia Works, by Joe StudwellStudwell's work, which was published in May 2020, addresses how countries such as Japan, South Korea and China have continued to achieve high growth, and why other countries have failed to do the same.“The agriculture section of the book was particularly insightful.It providedample food for thought for me as well as the whole agriculture team at our foundation.And it left us thinking about whether parts of the Asian model can apply in Africa.”Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization, by Vaclay Smil Smil's books are a constant favorite of the Microsoft's founder—one of his books makes Gates' list almost every year.“Making the Modern World” came out late in 2020 and explores the global use of materials, from silicon to wood and plastic.“If anyone tries to tell you we're using fewer materials, send him this book.With his usual skepticism and his love of data, Smil shows how our ability to make things with fewer materials—say, soda cans that need less aluminum—makes them cheaper, which actually enco urages more production.”【语篇解读】本文介绍了比尔·盖茨喜爱阅读的四本关于商业和经济的书。

Most of the opportunities are in 1 work. The pay is usually poor, but most people work 2 for the thrill of travel. You can pick grapes in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are always 3 in hotels and restaurants.But it is not as easy as it used to be to find work. Unless you speak the language of the country well, there will be very 4 openings. For example, when you arrive to wash dishes in a restaurant in Paris, the owner will 5 you to speak French.

We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the eart h. If we didn’t see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill(溅出) the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them.I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer laying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap(舔) up the water cupped in my beautiful boy’s hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.26. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?A. The writer lived in the hottest place.B. It wouldn’t rain during the dry season.C. All the crops in the area were dead.D. People were in great need of rain.27. Billy walked carefully to the woods because ______.A. he was not old enough to walk freelyB. he didn’t want to be followed by his motherC. he tried not to spill the water in his handsD. he want ed to attract his mother’s attention28. Why did the writer almost scream for Billy to get away?A. Because she saw the most amazing site in the woodsB. Because those large deer appeared dangerousC. Because she saw a baby deer laying on the groundD. Because the deer suffered from heavy loss of water29. After learning about the truth, the author felt _______.A. curious and confusedB. scared and excitedC. moved and curiousD. proud and moved30. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Water of LifeB. Importance of WaterC. How to Save AnimalsD. Animals in DangerBIt was one of the happiest times of my life. I was 29 and had just received my bachelor’s degree, graduating with honors despite working two jobs and being a wife and mother. My parents and five-year-old son were in the audience when I walked onto the stage at Ashland University to get my diploma. I was so excited and proud to be starting a teaching career and contributing more to my family’s well-being.But when I got home that evening, there was a note from my husband written on the back of an envelope. It basically said he had come to get his clothes and wouldn’t be back. We’d been having trouble, but the finality of that note still came as a shock. He had emptied our bank account. We were horribly in debt. I had quit my previous jobs in expectation of interviewing for a teaching position. Plus, I was eight months pregnant.I had my son, and I was about to bring a new life into the world, so despite my deep sadness, I had to go on. The next morning, I woke up, put my feet on the floor, took a deep breath, fixed breakfast, and basically did everything I always did. I used my routine to keep me moving. After being in the military for six years, I guess you can say I relied on my training, like all good soldiers do in tough situations. One small step after one small step was the way I bounced back.And in the seven years since, I’ve continued movi ng forward. I got a job as a kindergarten teacher, earned a master’s degree in education, and watched my babies grow to twelve and seven. I certainly would never have chosen to put them through this, but looking back, I’m glad it happened to me when it did. It helped me find my voice and myself a lot sooner. It helped me grow independent, confident, and strong—things I’m hopefully instilling(灌输) now in my children.31. After getting her bachelor’s degree, the author expected to ________.A. become a teacherB. be a wife and motherC. work two jobsD. get divorced32. What do we know about the author from Paragraph 2?A. Her husband wrote a note to congratulate her on her graduation.B. She had just been to a job interview when her husband left her.C. Her husband paid off all the debts from the bank.D. She was going to have another baby soon.33. The author’s hardships in life made her ________.A. become confident and independentB. work harder in the kindergartenC. use her routine to move forwardD. feel pleased with what happened to her34. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. The author’s parents helped her a lotB. The author received further education laterC. The author earned a master’s degree when she was 29D. The author didn’t know how to deal with marriage35. What helped the author to pull through her hard time?A. The divorce with her husband.B. Her fellow soldiers in the army.C.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练(含答案)

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练一、阅读理解AParis is the most wooded city in Europe, and around one quarter of its area is taken up by parks, gardens and other green spaces.Jardin des Plantes: over 28 hectaresThis impressive botanical garden is home to four museums, including the Natural History Museum, which houses a variety of African animals. The gardens themselves boast thousands of species of plants. This is a lovely place to relax and explore the beautiful surroundings.Parc des Buttes-Chaumont: over 24 hectaresIf you want to get off the tourist trail and hang out with true Parisians, this park is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a leisurely wander. It is in the 19th district and is one of the largest parks in Paris. Cross its lake on the suspension bridge, or admire the waterfalls and attractive temples.Jardin du Luxembourg: over 25 hectaresThese beautiful gardens were first laid out in 1612 as the gardens of the Luxembourg Palace. They include a geometric forest, French and English style gardens, as well as a large pond. There is so much to see and do with activities especially for children, such as slides, rides and puppet shows, as well as leisure and sporting activities for adults. The gardens are home to more than one hundred sculptures.Le Parc de la Villette: 55 hectaresThis urban cultural park is so much more than just a park as it is home to numerous music venues, exhibition spaces and cafes. It is also home to no less than 12 gardens, which all follow different themes. The Passenger Gardens, for example, which are built on what was once the sheep market, support a variety of ecosystems, demonstrating the importance of biodiversity.1. Which green space probably suits students who are interested in botany?A．Jardin des Plantes. B．Parc des Buttes-Chaumont.C．Jardin du Luxembourg. D．Le Parc de la Villette.2. Which is special about Jardin du Luxembourg?A．They used to be royal gardens. B．They are Parisian favourite gardens. C．They feature American style gardens. D．They house a variely of African animals.3. What can visitors do in Le Parc de la Villette?A．Visiting museums. B．Attending concerts.C．Admiring waterfalls. D．Watching puppet shows.BA team of researchers at ETH Zurich has the perfect long-lasting solution to our fog problem. They have developed a very thin and gold-based transparent coating (涂层) that can convert sunlight into heat, which can be applied to glass and other surfaces to prevent them from fogging.The special coating is developed using titanium oxide and gold particles. It selectively absorbs infrared radiations (红外线照射) from the sunlight and creates a heating effect that is powerful enough to keep fog away from the surface of an object.The coating basically employs heat to stop fogging. The coating absorbs a large part of the infrared radiation, which causes it to heat up-by up to 8℃.Previously, products like anti-fogging sprays create a very thin film of water on the surface to remove fog. The problem with such surfaces is pollution. Along with water, the sprays also attract dirt, dust, oil, and various other dirty substances, and just a little dirt on the surface makes it useless. However, the new coating repels (排斥) water. Furthermore, the coating is significantly thinner, which makes it more transparent as well as flexible. It is heated passively and requires, during daytime, no additional energy source.Gold might be expensive, but the researchers stress that their coating requires solittle that the material costs remain low. Their coating is produced with standardized and readily scalable methods, all cost-effectively. However, although this product can work at very low levels of solar irradiation, it does rely on a certain amount of light.The researchers will develop the coating further for other applications. In the process, they will examine whether other metals work just as well as gold. There is no need to fear. However, this would cause a car or a building to heat up more in the summer. The researchers have already filed a patent. Hopefully, this groundbreaking product will soon be available on the market.；4. How does the new coating work to remove fog?A．By reflecting part of sunlight selectively.B．By keeping cool air away from the object.C．By creating a thin film of water on the surface.D．By absorbing infrared radiations to heat the coating.；5. Why does the author mention previous anti-fogging products?A．To stress the advantages of the new coating.B．To introduce the inspiration behind the new coating.C．To prove the difficulty of creating anti-fogging products.D．To explain the reason for the anti-fogging coating being popular .；6. What is the limitation of the new coating?A．It is considerably expensive.B．It depends on sunlight to work.C．It takes too much time to produce.D．It is difficult to clean and maintain.；7. What do the researchers plan to do next?A．Apply for a patent for the invention.B．Develop the product for more practical uses.C．Explore the environmental impact of the coating.D．Seek a cheaper material as an alternative to gold.CAn exhibition of vivid photographs and a restored documentary give fresh insight into the Antarctic explorer, who died a century ago.One hundred years ago, the leader of the last great expeditio n of the heroic age of polar exploration died from a heart attack as his ship, Quest, headed for Antarctica. The announcement of the death of Ernest Shackleton on 30 January 1922 was greeted with an outpouring of national grief.This was the man, after all, who had saved the entire crew of his ship Endurance —which had been crushed and sunk by ice in 1915 — by making a daring trip in a tiny open boat over 750 miles of polar sea to raise the alarm at a whaling station in South Georgia.It remains one of the greatest rescue stories of modern history and led to the idolising of Shackleton in the United Kingdom, a reputation that survived undamaged for the rest of the century. As his contemporary Raymond Priestley, the geologist and Antarctic explorer, later put it: “When disaster strikes and all hope is gone, get down on your knees and pray for Shackleton.”And here and now in 2022, his death is being marked with an elaborately illustrated exhibition —Shackleton’s legacy and the power of early Antarctic pho tography — which opens at the Royal Geographical Society (RGS), and which includes a range of images and artefacts from his expeditions. Additionally, a digitally remade version of South, a documentary film of Shackleton’s 1914-16 Endurance expedition, is being screened at the British Film Institute.The film and most of the exhibition’s finest images are the handiwork of Frank Hurley, who sailed with Shackleton and who was one of the 20th century’s greatest photographers and film-makers. Both film and exhibition feature striking camera work and provide vivid accounts of the hardships that Shackleton and his men endured as they headed off to explore Antarctica.Even after he survived the great expedition, he still longed for another trip to Antarctica, and after long negotiations set sail in Quest, from England, with the aim of circumnavigating (环航) Antarctica, Shackleton was by now very ill and had suffered at least one heart attack. On 2 January 1922, he wrote in his diary: “I grow old and tired but must a lways lead on.” Three days later he had a major heart attack and died a few hours later. He is buried on South Georgia, scene of his greatest triumph.“Shackleton was an inspirational leader. He had an innate sense of what was possible and achievable. He also had a huge personality but led by example. At the same time, he was sensitive to the needs of the individuals he was leading. For example, after Endurance broke up, his men had lost their protection and shelter. Their social fabric had been destroyed. There would have been disagreement. Yet Shackleton succeeded in keeping them together and made sure they survived.”8. People were overcome with grief when Ernest Shackleton died because .A．it was a huge pity that such a brave explorer should ha ve died from a heart attack B．he was the man that wrote about one of the greatest rescue stories of modern history C．he came to his entire crew’s rescue and symbolised hope in extreme circumstances D．there was no one to pray to anymore when disaster came and there was no hope9. What can we learn about the exhibition?A．It presents Shackleton’s 1914-16 Endurance expedition with powerful Antarctic photos.B．It celebrates the 100th anniversary of the great explorer Ernest Shackleton’s birth. C．It consists of vivid photographs, artefacts, and documentaries of Ernest Shackleton.D．It is created by Frank Hurley, who witnessed Shackleton’s heroic acts with his own eyes.10. Which of the following is NOT true about Ernest Shackleton according to the passage? A．He was the leader of a heroic exploration to the South pole, who died from a heart attack off shore.B．He saved the crew members of the sunken Endurance by travelling to raise the alarmin a tiny boat.C．He is universally recognised as the greatest Antarctic explorer who has enjoyed enduring fame.D．He was inspirational, practical, responsible, sensitive towards his men, but had a strong character.11. What does “Their social fabric had been destroyed. ” in the last paragraph most probably mean?A．What they wore would not be accepted by others upon returning.B．They could no longer socialise with others even if they went back.C．The ship could not keep them together even if they survived.D．They could not function socially as they had when there was shelter.二、七选五阅读Do you want lots of success in school and in your friendship?

2012学年丽水中学高三英语限时训练（三）第一部分完形填空(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)Ever since I was little I loved doing things for other people. As I got older I began doing random things for people. For example, during holidays, such as Christmas, I would make an extra 1 along with the ones for my relatives. Then I would go and find someone in the grocery store and just hand it to them and walk away. It was so much fun. I admit, 2 , the first time I did it I was so 3 . I didn’t know who to give the card to. So I said a little prayer and knew that the 4 person would just appear. About that time an elderly man ran 5 me with his shopping cart. It was an accident, and he 6 a million times. We smiled and he walked away, and I knew that he was the one. Later I found him in a different isle(过道), handed him the card, and smiled. I said Happy Holidays, and then walked away. It was so great, and the 7 I had afterwards was unexplainable.Then one day I came across your website (the coolest website ever) and 8 some Smile Cards. When they came in, I started a new project. When I go into a store, I locate a person who I think needs a 9 . Then, I buy a flower, a carnation, to be exact, and 10 it in the most beautiful paper they have. I tie lots of ribbons on it to make it 11 , and then slip the smile card into an envelope and 12 it to the flower. After that, I pay for it and explain to the cashier 13 it is to go to (I live in a pretty small town so it’s easy to get the help of the cashiers). They then give it to that person when they come through.. Once in a while I’ll buy the flower and then just leave it for the cashier. That gets smiles.My favorite time was when I picked out this elderly woman who was walking around the 14 somewhat confused. I had come across her numerous times and she only smiled slightly once. When she came to the check out (I was watching from outside) her face 15 and the smile was the biggest I had ever seen. Later that week the cashier whom I had had 16 me told me that the lady had been so surprised and while she was walking out with the grocery bag to her car, she was planning what she was going to do for someone else. It was awesome.I absolutely love the random acts of kindness cards. I 17 at least two in my purse and others in my car, locker and everywhere I go. As I mentioned, my club, STARS, is doing a Random Acts of Kindness Project with the smile cards so they also are using them. I look forward to hearing about their success. It’s really great. I 18 used them in school. I bought my entire math class cans of pop after lunch one day. They came in from lunch anda can of pop and a smile card were setting 19 that day. It totally lightened the mood in the class that day20 we were studying for a test. Thank you for all of the help that you provide.

Turtle BayBIn 1974, the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO) adopted a new policy. WHO tried to encourage developing countries to develop their own traditional forms of medicine, instead of turning to Western medicine for expensive cures to medical problem. There were many people who looked down on this new policy, but WHO felt it was the most reasonable solution to the large health problems facing poor countries. Today, WHO estimates that a third of the global population lack easy access to modern drugs, and that in the poorest parts of Africa and Asia, that figure rises to fifty percent. WHO believed that the people in developing countries who could not afford or find modern medical doctors were better off using traditional medicine rather than no medicine at all.Today, traditional medicine and treatments are not only used in developing countries, but are increasing in popularity in North America and Europe. In the United Kingdom, for example, $230 million is spent on traditional remedies annually. In China, traditional herbal medicines account for thirty to fifty percent of all medicines used. The global market for traditional medicines is estimated to be $60 billion, and growing every year.Twenty-five percent of modern medicines are made from plants that were first used in traditional medicine, and scientists believe they have just scratched the surface. For example, one Chinese herbal remedy, which has been used for two thousand years, has recently been found to be effective against varieties of malaria that have resistance to other drugs. This herb could end up saving a million lives a year, mostly among children. In South Africa, another traditional plant is being used to treat patients with AIDS.Recognizing the importance of traditional medicines, in 2003 WHO launched a Traditional Medicine Strategy. Among the recommendations of this strategy, there were several areas of concern. The first area of concern is safety. WHO recommends more scientific testing on traditional medicine—not all traditional medicines are as helpful as the two mentioned above, and some can actually be harmful.For example, in the United States, a traditional Chinese herb, Ma Huang, was sold as a diet drug. It was to blame for many heart attacks and at least a dozen deaths. In Belgium, at least seventy people received liver damage when they took herbal remedy made from the wrong species of plant.Another area of concern is biodiversity and sustainability(生物多样性和持续性). Some people are worried that as herbal medicines become more popular, the plants that these medicines are made from may become endangered as they are over-harvested. For example, in eastern and southern Africa a species of wild potato has become endangered because of reports that it is effective in the treatment of AIDS.There is also the problem of rights to drugs created from traditional remedies. Research into traditional remedies is increasingly being done by large drug companies, mostly based in Western countries. There is a fear that as these companies produce drugs they will claim to have the rights to the medicine. WHO recognizes that there is a need to make sure that any profits from drugs produced from traditional medicines are shared with the local culture from which the medicine originated.Traditional treatments don’t only include medicines, they also include such treatments as acupuncture (using needles to treat illnesses) and aromatherapy (which, as the name suggests, uses types of smell as therapy). Acupuncture, for example, started in China, but is now performed in more than seventy countries around the world. There are at least 50,000 acupuncturists in Asia alone, and another 15,000 in Europe, and 12,000 in the United States. Even conventional doctors have come to recognize the benefits of acupuncture to stop pain and to eat some illnesses. In the United Kingdom, almost half of all conventional doctors either recommend acupuncture in some cases, or will perform acupuncture themselves. In fact, several British soccer players have used acupuncture to treat injuries that, in the past, would have required surgery, or that they would have just had to put up with.25. What is this passage mainly about?A. why traditional medicine is so effectiveB. a program to increase the use of alternative medicine around the worldC. the main differences between traditional and conventional medicinesD. the history and future of the World Health Organization26. Why does WHO encourage developing countries to use traditional medicines?A. Non-traditional medicines are often too expensive.B. Traditional medicine is usually more effective.C. Western countries shouldn't have to supply drugs to developing countries.D. The populations of developing countries prefer traditional medicines.27. According to the passage, which of these can be treated by acupuncture?A. Being overweightB. AIDSC. MalariaD. pain28. Which of these statements would WHO probably agree with?A. Herbal remedies are much safer than conventional medicine.B. In the future, more Western drugs will be based on traditional plants.C. Western companies should own any species they produce drugs from.D. Conventional doctors should avoid using traditional medicine.29. Which of these does the p assage NOT mention as one of WHO’s main concerns?A. species protectionB. sharing of profits with local culturesC. drug safetyD. problems caused by acupunctureCWhen looking for love, people may go to some extreme lengths. They might go on blind dates set up by family and friends. They might write personal ad to place in newspapers. Or they might use a computer to help them in their search for a soul mate by joining an online dating service. Some people have even tried to find their perfect match through game shows on television. Many of these TV dating shows, including The Bachelor and Who Wants to Marry Multimillionaire?, have proved to be rating blockbusters, with millions of viewers watching each week to find out which of the contestants will find true love.Of all these game shows, perhaps the one with the most unexpected ending was Mr. Right, which was shown in England in 2002. On the show, a bachelor, thirty-five-year-old Lance Gerrard-Wright, dated fifteen women to find the one who was his ideal partner. The host of the show was Ulrika Jonsson, an English celebrity originally from Sweden. For seven weeks on the show, Gerrard-Wright took turns going on dates with each of the women, taking them to expensive restaurants and exotic locations. He even met the women's families and introduced them to his own. Then at the end of each episode, he would choose between one and three of the contestants with whom he had felt the least compatible(相容的), and say goodbye to them.At one p oint during the series, one contestant volunteered to leave because she said she didn’t find him attractive. After two dates she said she had had enough, and she couldn’t see it working, “He wasn’t my cup of tea.” In another episode the woman he was on a d ate with burst into tears when he called her by another contestant’s name. “You called me by another girl’s name. I can’t believe you did that. I really liked you,” she sobbed.But in the final episode, the woman he eventually chose decided she didn’t want to marry him after all. “I think you’ve chosen me because you have to choose someone,” she said. Maybe this was because she already knew he had fallen in love with the show’s host!After leaving the show, Gerrard-Wright and Jonsson were seen dining together and attending parties around London more and more often. Finally, on May 1, 2003, Gerrard-Wright proposed to Jonsson on the steps of St. Paul’s Cathedral. And she accepted his proposal right away, although it was a conditional acceptance. Jonsson has two children from previous relationships—an eight-year-old son, Cameron, and a two-year-old daughter, Bo. She had to make sure that they agreed to the marriage. Luckily, they did. Gerrard-Wright said, “In the end the show did work for me. I grabbed an opport unity to get a girlfriend and I did. Ulrika's gorgeous.”The happy couple finally got married at Jonsson’s home in Sweden on the island of Varmdo. They wanted tokeep the ceremony small, so only forty people were invited, including family and friends. There was some gossip at the time that Jonsson’s friends who did not receive invitations to the wedding felt snubbed by her. But the bride and groom did not let that ruin their wedding day.Has Ulrika Jonsson finally found Mr. Right? Only time will tell. But none of the guests at the wedding could deny the happiness in the couple’s eyes as the bride and groom left the wedding ceremony with the music of Stevie Wonder playing in the background, “Seen a lot of things in this old world. When I touched them, they di d nothing, girl. Ooh baby, here I am, signed, sealed, delivered, I’m yours.”30.

A letterC. A groomD. A babyDIf you are researching your family tree, you’re not alone. Genealogy is currently one of the most popular pastimes on the Internet, which is increasingly being used to trace distant relatives. Some of the most popular Web sites deal with thousands of enquiries and emails every month.“The progressive breakdown of traditional family values, economic factors and freedom to travel have all spread families out more widely than was once common, and many relatives have lost touch with each other,” explains Gordon Johnson, an author and genealogy expert. “Most people now interested in genealogy start by looking for family connections a few generations back, or even relatives alive today, and then get hooked on it as a hobby.”Getting started requires little more than knowing who your parents are. Then it's a simple case of tracing back your lineage(家族) generation by generation. Although several beginners’ guides can be found online to help, Johnson advises that you make contact with a family history society in the area which your ancestors are from. Many of these publish helpful booklets of local history, gravestone inscriptions(碑文) or census indexes(人口普查索引).One of the most common mistakes made by amateur genealogists is failing to get in touch with living relatives. These relatives can provide vital information on people, dates and places. Relative accounts can be misleading, but they are the most current source of family history available. Other common errors include not knowing the history of the area in which your research is being conducted or assuming that your surname has never been spelled a different way.Another common mistake is for researchers to assume they are the only person researching a particular family line. This is unlikely: any family group spanning several generations will probably contain a few thousand living members. This means that contacting distant cousins can be a timesaving and helpful resource. This is where the Web’s strength lies. As a ch eap means of communicating across oceans and time zones, the Net issecond to none, and thousands of family hunters log on daily to request help and information in the pursuit of their goal.It is also important that researchers keep careful notes of their information sources. A simple filing(文件归档) system for accessing the data they collect is also vital. This will help to avoid confusion once the information begins to pile up. A number of specialist programs are available to help with this. If you decide to use one of these programs, shop around and choose the one which most closely matches your needs.The problem with the Internet is that it is a very recent medium. The huge resources it offers only serve to highlight the enormous amounts of vital information that have yet to make it into digital format. For the foreseeable future, it is likely that much of the information you need will be found only in books in libraries or in national and local record offices. The online sources are growing fast, but it will be a long time before they completely replace more traditional methods.35. Many people have become interested in genealogy _______.A. because of Web sites on the InternetB. because people travel more nowadaysC. because they want to make contact with relativesD. because it is an interesting hobby36. The writer suggests that starting to research your family tree ______.A. can be difficultB. is best done by speaking to your parentsC. is easyD. should begin by using the Internet37. Many genealogists make the mistake of ______.A. believing everything that their relatives tell themB. not contacting their relativesC. misspelling their relatives’ namesD. ignoring very important information38. The writer thinks that it is unlikely that _______.A. only one person is researching a particular family lineB. any family group will have lots of living membersC. any family group will have few family membersD. contacting distant cousins is timesaving39. Which of these problems with the Internet is mentioned by the writer?A. It contains too much information.B. It is hard to keep up with new developments on the Internet.C. Lots of information still is n’t available on the Internet.D. Many libraries and record offices don't have Web sites.40. In general, the writer feels that the Internet ______.A. will soon be the most popular way of researching your family treeB. contains a large amount of information for researchersC. has become the best way of tracing your family treeD. will eventually take the place of more traditional methods of research第二节：任务型阅读阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

限时训练三命题人:张艳审核人: 靳春福一、完型填空British parents could soon face a fine and prison if their children misbehave(行为不端) at school. The government wants to introduce tough new laws to improve discipline in schools. They want to make parents more 21 for their children. The new measures include paying a 1,700-pound fine or going to prison. The government thinks that current policies on misbehavior are not 22 enough. Many British schools 23 high levels of truancy(逃学) and low academic achievement. The government believes every parent has a responsibility to support teachers and make sure the rules are 24 .The measures are part of a new focus on the relationship between schools and 25 . There are also plans t o help parents and students. It‟s advised to give pupils private tutors if they are doing 26 in reading and maths. Doctors, health workers and social workers are needed in schools to provide better 27 services. Under the new plans, parents will have a bigger voice in how schools 28 .

Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom, …Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?‟” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent—child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue int0 adulthood.No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “There‟s still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.“My parents were on the …before‟side of that change, but today‟s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the …after‟side,”explains Mr. Ballmer. “It‟s not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”41. The underlined word gulf in Para.3 most probably means _________.A. interestB. distanceC. differenceD. separation42. Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing?A. Parents help their children develop interests in more activities.B. Parents put more trust in their children‟s abilities.C. Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.D. Parents share more interests with their children.43. The change in today‟s parent-child relationship is _________.A. more confusion among parentsB. new equality between parents and childrenC.1ess respect for parents from childrenD. more strictness and authority on the part of parents44. By saying “today‟s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the …after‟ side.” the author meansthat today‟s parents _________.A. follow the trend of the changeB. can set a limit to the changeC. fail to take the change seriouslyD. have little difficulty adjusting to the change45. The purpose of the passage is to _________.A. describe the difficulties today‟s parents have met withB. discuss the development of the parent—child relationshipC. suggest the ways to handle the parent—child relationshipD. compare today‟s parent—child relationship with that in the pastBSometimes you‟ll hear people say that you can‟t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you‟ll hear people say that you can‟t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you‟ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we‟re the apple of our parents‟eyes, and that our Grandmas think we‟re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. but sometimes it‟s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is achallenge. it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own mind‟s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don‟t allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can‟t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you‟re silly because you aren‟t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you‟re weak because you can‟t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you‟re dull because you don‟t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn‟t mean it‟s true.The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you‟ll know you‟re well on your way. Good luck!46. You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.A. dare to challenge yourselfB. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourselfD. have a high opinion of yourself47. According to the passage, our serf-images _________.A. have positive effectsB. are probably untrueC. are often changeableD. have different functions48. How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?A. To keep a different image of others.B. To make your life successful.C. To understand your own world.D. To change the way you think.49. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your success.B. How to face challenges in your life.C. How to build a positive self-image.D. How to develop your good qualities.50. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Parents.B. Adolescents.C. Educators.D. People in general.三.七选五__71__You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time.
