us brought an umbrella ．We ran about but we could find no place to hide ．Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining ，There were hours to go before we reached the campsite （野营地）．It was even worse that our small compass （指南针）showed that we went to the wrong way ．We had lost our way!We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily ．Chris said we could set up a tent to hide in ，so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent ．Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm．But we were unable to light the fire ，as everything was wet．We driedourselves ，chatted and waited inside the tent

was 11 ，a white gardenia （栀子花）was sent to my house．No card ever came with it ．Calls to the flower shop were not helpful at all ．After some time I stopped trying to find out the sender's name and was just pleased with the beautiful flower ，in soft pink paper ．I couldn't stop imagining who the giver might be ．Some of my happiest moments were spentdaydreaming（幻想）about the sender．My mother encouraged these daydreams．She'd ask me if I had been especially kind to someone ．Perhaps it was one of my classmates．Perhaps it was the old man who I once helped ．As a girl ，I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy that I had met ．A month before my high school graduation （毕业），my father died ．I was so sad that Ibecame completely uninterested in my coming graduation dance ，and I didn't care whether I had a new dress or not ．My mother ，in her own sadness ，would not let me miss （过）any of those things ．She wanted her children to feel loved ．In fact ，my mother wanted herchildren to see themselves

nose and cough ．But it's usually easy to deal with ．Some takemedicine while others drink herbal （草药的）tea or chicken soup ．Usually you feel better aftera week．On the other hand，the flu can be much more dangerous．It usually gives you a fever．Sometimes it can cause death．According to an American magazine ，the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919 ．Don't worry ．If you get a flu vaccine （疫苗），it can stop you from getting the virus （病毒）．Flu vaccines work by giving body a small amount of flu viruses ．This causes your body to develop antibodies （抗体）．So next time you get the flu ，the antibodies should help you ．The flu virus changes every few years ．Therefore ，there are so many types of flu ，such asH1N1and H 5 N1 ．The antibodies for one type of flu can't help us against all types of flu ．That's why we need to get the vaccine every year ．However ，good health habits may also help stop you from developing a cold orflu ．Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting

crowded and polluted ．Well ，what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars ？First of all ，transport should be much better ．At present ，humans need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship ．However ，by 2100，spaceship can travel at half the speed of light ．It might take us two or three days to get there!Secondly，humans need food，water and air to live ．Scientists should develop plants that can be grown on Mars．These plants will produce the food ，water and air that weneed．However ，there is no answer for all the problems now ．There is also a problem for us to live on Mars ．Mars attracts us much less than the Earth does．This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space there．We will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier ．In some ways，life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today ．Food will not be the same —meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are

2020-2021学年上海市徐汇区高三（上）期末英语试卷1.When educators think of literacy -- the ability to read and write -- they often place moreimportance on students' abilities to read and fully understand a piece of writing.But experts say critical and creative writing skills are equally important. And, they say, they （1）______ （overlook）too often in the classroom.Compared to reading, writing is （2）______ （active）. It helps students be independent thinkers, take ownership of their stories and ideas and communicate them clearly to others, says Elyse Eidman-Aadahl. She heads the National Writing Project, （3）______ offers help for teachers who want to push students to write more.Elyse said, "I have to say （4）______ we want an education system just （5）______ （focus）on making people consumers and not on helping them be producers, thisemphasis on reading only -- which does happen in so many places -- is veryshort-sighted."She said students' writing work now usually centers on examining a text, （6）______ presenting a new idea. Writing, she said, should be "the central thing you're learning. Not writing on a test, not writing to demonstrate you're learning （7）______ someone has taught you…"Teaching reading together with writing improves both skills,says RebeccaWallace-Segall,who heads a New York City writing center, Writopia Lab.She said writing affects a person's ability to read and more than 90 percent of youngpeople in the Writopia program do not trust their writing abilities（8）______ they start.But she said they learn to enjoy the writing process and become more effective readers, too.Elyse said employers today seek workers "all the time" who can write well. Digital tools increasingly mean that people are "（9）______ （interact）with the internet through writing," she said.Young people are already writing all the time -- through text messages, emails and on social media.Elyse believes every young person today is a writer if they are connected to the internet.So,she added,"we have to help them do it in the best, most responsible, critical, prosocial way."Rebecca argues that writing also helps students work through difficulties they face in life "subconsciously"."They're not writing a story about a difficult father or directly about a bully in class,（10）______ creating a fictional scenario （电影剧本）that might feel distant enough for them to go deep into it."China has for years been protecting and restoring natural ecology and the environment,and has established a target responsibility system to improve ecological and environmental quality,developed innovative systems of （1）______ ，inspection and accountability（责任），and greatly raised the level of biodiversity conservation. It has also made steady progress in the （2）______ of 25 pilot projects for ecological protection and restoration of mountains, rivers, forests, lakes and grasslands, and put 90 percent of the earthly ecosystems and 85 percent of key wildlife populations under （3）______ regulations.While （4）______ ways to ensure harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, in line with the goals and vision of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, China is also helping build a global ecological civilization. China was the first country to （5）______ the National Implementation Plan on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, has contributed to and participated in the Convention on Biological Diversity, and made notable progress toward 17 of the 20 Aichi Biodiversity Targets and achieved some of them before schedule. （According to the （6）______ released Global Biodiversity Outlook 5，only six Aichi Targets have been partly met at the global level）. Also, the United Nations has labelled the Kubuqi Desert in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region（内蒙古自治区）as a desert ecological-economic （7）______ area. And the Saihanba Afforestation Community and the "1，000 Villages in Demonstration and 10，000 Villages in Renovation" project in Zhejiang Province have won the UN "Champions of the Earth" award.Further, China has announced its carbon emissions will peak before 2030 and it will reach carbon neutrality （中和，中性）by 2060 and thus boost the global fight against climate change and help（8）______ biodiversity.To （9）______ ecological and environmental protection,China has shifted fromquantitative（量的，定量的）economic growth to high-quality, green development. China understands the organic yet complex relationship between humans and nature, between the environment and people's livelihoods, and between conservation and development.And it has been making efforts to better understand the development model of （10）______ civilization that is different from that of industrial civilization, in order to build a green society, which will ensure harmonious coexistence of humans and nature as well as sustainable development.A trending new addition to travel destinations around the world is freezing-yet-beautiful Alaska. The poles,the dancing lights, and the winter wonderlands have always attracted extreme travelers --- but this time, there is more than the magical draw of the （1）______ that is inviting people up towards the corners of the globe：climate change.There's a strange form of climate anxiety,which is driving more people to places and sights that may（2）______ to exist in the coming years or decades. Alaska （3）______ the list of climate-tempted travel destinations. The northern and otherwise-serene Alaskan village of Kaktovik （4）______ a major boom in tourism last year, as over 2，000 people appeared on its lightly（5）______ gravel（砂砾）and snowy streets. Until earlier in the decade, local news reports say, the village had fewer than 50 annual visitors. The main （6）______ now are polar bears, which are being forced into towns by a warming planet and the shrinking Arctic sea ice. All the heating is making it far easier for wildlife （7）______ and effortless bear selfies. Most visitors are reportedly from China, Europe, or the USA，often arriving on fuel-consuming chartered planes.Around the mid 1990s, researchers began （8）______ more female bears denning（筑巢）on land instead of in the ice. And seasons of tourism match up with changing bear behavior. It peaks in autumn （which is also far warmer and breezier than the forthcoming winter - and climate change is making things more pleasant in general）when sea ice is far from the shore,and bears can become （9）______ on the land until the sea freezes again in winter.A report in the Climate Science Special Report：Fourth National Climate Assessment found,"Alaska has warmed more than twice as rapidly as the rest of the United States." This year, alarming temperatures were reported from Alaska. Every day since April 25 saw above （10）______ temperatures, the longest streak in a century.While bears have their charm, melting glaciers are a landscape in their own right. With （11）______ like the recent one that glaciers could be melting at 100 times faster than （12）______thought, the number of tourists on ice seems to be going up consistently. Alaska's tour companies have reported an extraordinary increase --- and the number of polar cruises reportedly went up 33 percent in the last decade. Some glaciers have been marked by the rate of melt for tourists to watch and imagine the（13）______ from where they stand, much like visitors to the Berlin wall picture the past. As the landscape changes,tour companies have had to （14）______ their regular routes and hikes too - some glaciers that had （15）______ by foot only a decade ago can now only be reached by helicopter.2.

The result has captured the attention of Chinese netizens, showing the huge influence of esports in China.Several hashtags（推文话题）such as "LOL Worlds semi-finals" and "Suning gets to the final" have earned more than a billion views on China's Twitter-like Sina Weibo as of Monday. Top Esports was one of favorites to win in the semi-finals,while Suning was commonly seen asa loser,but the latter finally broke through to win 3-1.After the game, one member of the defeated team, Karsa, shed tears at the event, which quickly became a hot topic on Sina Weibo.In a message posted to Sina Weibo after the competition,Top Esports said that they regret not making it to the final and that they felt sorry for their fans,"but our pursuit of victory will never stop. We will carry on with this regret."Instead of blaming them for their failure,most netizens encouraged them to try again in 2021. While many media outlets are calling Suning's win a surprise,but a commentator for an esports team based in Shanghai surnamed Zhang told the Global Times on Monday that the result is not surprising."After Top Esports barely defeated Fnatic with a 3-2 score,I felt that the entire team,except for Karsa,performed worse than before. The middle lane and bottom lane of the team were off line when playing against Suning and did not play to their usual level," Zhang said.He praised Suning, saying their skills were improving,"but the team still has a gap with Damwon Gaming. I hope they can lose as gloriously as possible."Suning,which was formed by Chinese commercial retail enterprise Suning,also posted on Sina Weibo on Sunday to thank everyone who supported the team, saying that they will try their best to guard the glory of the League of Legends Pro League.Li, a Suning fan living in Shanghai, was glad to see the team she supports win."The team has constantly grown during the Worlds this year,although all members of the team are freshmen," she said.Li was also a little regretful for Top Esports as the team is the only one that has all Chinese members."Making the impossible possible through hard work is the charm of esports. I think it is full of passion," Li said,explaining why she loves esports.17.Which team is the Chinese team Suning ready to fight against next？______A. League of LegendsB. Top EsportsC. Damwon GamingD. Fnatic18.What did Mr. Zhang, the commentator, think of the failure of Top Esports？______A. He thought that there was still a gap between Top Esports and Damwon Gaming.B.

Everest, high in the Himalayans, is the tallest mountain above sea level on Earth. It reaches 8，848 meters into the sky.Between 2006 and 2019，around two thirds of climbers were successful in their attempt to reach the top. In the 15 years before that, only about one-third went all the way to the top. The number of attempts to reach the top of Everest has risen sharply over the years, leading to a 300 percent increase in overcrowding. In 2019，955 climbers tried to reach the mountaintop. Only 222 people did so in 2000.The study noted that on a single day in May of last year, 396 climbers had gathered at the narrow path just below the top. The area, known as the "death zone," is so narrow that only a small number of climbers can pass through, one directly behind another.Nine climbers died on Everest in May 2019. It was the deadliest Everest climbing season since 2015 when an earthquake killed at least 18 people on the mountain.A picture of climbers waiting their turn to go up and down through the death zone became famous as it was shared online. Yet researchers say the crowds were not the main reason for the deaths last year."Surprisingly crowding has no evident effect on success or death" of Everest climbers, the study said.However, overcrowding does make the climb more dangerous."If crowding slows climbers （as is expected），this increases their exposure to the elements, which should increase risk of an accident or illness," said Raymond B. Huey, lead writer of the report.An unexpected storm, earthquake, or landslide could be disastrous, he told Reuters by email. Climbers have expressed concern that was giving anyone willing to pay the government ＄11，000 permission to climb Everest. Nepal plans to change its policy to require climbers to use guides, and meet physical fitness and experience qualifications, said tourism department official Mira Acharya.Nepal temporarily closed its mountains to climbers because of the coronavirus health crisis. Now they are open again. However, Acharya noted that flights into and within Nepal have not restarted.More than 6，000 people have climbed Mount Everest since 1953，when New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first climbers known to reach the top. At least 311 climbers have died trying.20.Supposing 900 people took part in the climbing Mount Everest between 1990 and 2005，how many of them reached the top？______A. 300.B. 400.C. 500.D. 60021.Why does overcrowding make the climbing more dangerous？______A. Because it surprisingly leads to death for those climbers.B. Because it stopped the climbers from reaching the top at the area called "death zone".C. Because it exposes climbers to increasing risk of an accident or illness.D. Because it gets climbers stranded in "death zone" and unable to get further supplies.22.According to the report, what is the possible reason for overcrowding？______A. More people want to experience the climbing to the top of Mount Everest.B. A picture of climbers waiting to reach the top inspires more people to give it a try.C. Nepal government gives climbers permission without restrictions.D. More people want to climb the Mount Everest before Nepal takes restrictions.23.What is the general idea of this passage？______A. Climbers are more likely to lose their lives before Reaching Top of Mount Everest.B. More climbers need to be trained before climbing Mount Everest.C. Enough experience in climbing mountains matters so much.D. Climbers are twice as likely to reach top of Mount Everest than in Past.FThe State-Of-The-Art-Tech Behind Fighting Fires How are today's firefighters dealing with massive wildfires？They're doing it by using the most advanced technology. Whether it's with a modified jumbo jet or innovative thermal（热的）imaging cameras, we take a look at the tech behind fighting some of the world's most overwhelming fires.Teams fighting against the California wildfires used the Global SuperTanker - a modified jumbo jet that carries almost 73，000 liters （19，200 gallons）of fire retardant（阻燃剂）- alongside the S-64 Aircrane heavy-lifting helicopter, which carries 10，000 liters （2，200 gallons）of water.These air tankers are used to put out flames and monitor fire spread through sensors and video feeds coupled to GPS data. Fed into hi-tech computer modelling software, they can help predict the fire's behavior and possible spread patterns. Computer models are able to provide small area coverage only meters wide, mapping territory and airflow. Fires are especially responsive to wind conditions and these tools allow firefighters to determine the passage of flames at ground level.But manned aircrafts need a large investment in maintenance and crew training. Command and control centers are turning to unmanned aircraft to keep costs down and provide additional capabilities. Small quadcopters（四旋翼机）and larger fixed-wing aircraft can fly over fires for much longer periods.Smoke can cover the ground for days at a time or pose a severe breathing risk to air crews - However, this is not a problem for drones. Onboard high definition, infrared（红外辐射的）and thermal imaging cameras can provide direction to ground teams, spot vital infrastructure （including power or water lines），and identify dangerous or flammable objects.Infrared and thermal cameras can see through smoke to monitor ground teams and let them know when conditions change. Unmanned aircraft can provide aerial images, heat maps, and temperature scales of fire zones. Specialist drones can even carry hoses to less accessible areas. In the future, swarms of autonomous drones could be used to track wildfires and spot fire spread.Thermal imaging technology has become widespread and less expensive to use. Handheld cameras and devices that attach to smartphones allow firefighters to see through smoke and find active fire hotspots, or undergrowth that is burning without producing smoke. Identifying these hotspots allows crews to target the most active and dangerous parts of a wildfire and divert manpower to tackle it more effectively.Augmented reality helmets that include breathing appliance alongside computer vision-aided displays are adding to the ground team's capabilities. Thermal cameras inside the helmets mean that firefighters can operate in environments completely obscured by smoke. At the same time, they can wirelessly transmit information on what is happening at the frontline to command andcontrol points.Robots are also making a difference. The Smokebot was developed by a Swedish university to assist fire and rescue services. It collects data in environments with reduced visibility using radar, a laser scanner,a thermal camera and gas sensors. Smokebot can help in forest fire situations mapping large areas filled with dust or smoke, where it is too risky to send in rescue personnel.Earth-observing satellites commonly detect wildfires in wilderness areas. Their cameras and remote sensors are used to estimate the fire's evolution and provide situational awareness that saves lives.The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite（VIIRS）onboard the Suomi NPP satellite gives near real-time data to NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System（FIRMS）on active fires across the world.Finally, to get the bigger picture on fire tracking and monitoring,the US Forest Service and US Geological Survey uses data from the Landsat Earth-observing satellites. Data gathered from every major fire in the country since 1984 has been fed into computer models to help predict and prevent wildfires.24.What does the underlined "they"，in the third paragraph, refer to？______A. Current firefighters tackling massive wildfires.B. The modified jumbo jets and art thermal imaging cameras.C. The data gained from sensors and video feeds, plus GPS information.D. The air tankers used to put out flames and monitor fire spread.25.Which of the following is not the advantages of drones over manned aircrafts in tacklingmassive wildfires？______A. Drones don't need much fuel when putting out wildfires and identifying the causes offires.B. Less money is needed in training crews when drones are available.C. Drones won't come across any breathing problems when in work.D. Drones needs much less investment in maintenance.26.Which of the following advanced technologies is not mentioned in the passage？______A. Swarms of autonomous drones used to extinguish wildfires from air.B. AR helmets with breathing appliance alongside computer vision-aided.C. Drones with high definition, infrared and thermal imaging cameras onboard.D. Earth-observing satellites equipped with cameras and remote sensors.27.Which of the following statements about Smokebot is true？______A. It was created by a Swiss university to assist fire and rescue services.B. It can help to send rescue personnel to a fire spot.C. It can help draw a map of large areas and fill the regions with dust or smoke.D. It collects data using advanced technology where visibility is reduced due to fires.If you want to make sure that you understand this story as fully as possible, you might consider printing the article and reading it on paper. That is one of the findings of a recent study of research done on the differences between paper and screen reading.Virginia Clinton, a professor of Education, Health and Behavior at the University of North Dakota, carried out the research examination. She found what she called a "small but significant" difference in reading text from screen versus paper.Clinton's examination found that reading from paper generally led to better understanding and improved a person's performance on tests connected to the reading material. And, she found no major differences in reading speed between the two. （1）______Such differences were notable only when the reading materials were expositive texts-- or explanatory and based on fact. Clinton said she found no major difference when it came to narrative, fictional texts.Clinton also found that paper readers usually have a higher recognition of how well they have understood a text than screen readers. This skill is called metacognition. （2）______ "Metacognition" simply means thinking about one's own thinking.Clinton and other researchers have found screen readers often believe they understand a textbetter than they really do. And, they are more likely than paper readers to overestimate how well they would do on a test of the materials they have read.She said, "We think that we're reading the story or the book better than we actually are. We think we understand what we are reading better than how we are actually reading."Yet, this inflated sense of understanding, or overconfidence, is especially common among screen readers.There are many possible reasons for such findings. Overconfidence of screen readers,for example,could be the result of a distracted, less focused mind.（3）______ Research shows the majority of people --of all ages -- prefer reading from paper. But, if someone prefers screen reading to paper reading, that person's understanding of the material is not likely to suffer. Clinton said, "If you are enjoying the reading process, you're going to be more involved. You're going to be paying better attention. Preferences are a key issue here."（4）______ "If you are reading from paper, your mind thinks, 'This is something important.I need to pay attention to it'，" Clinton said.Although her findings may support paper reading over screen reading, Clinton says she does not believe screen reading should be avoided.Instead, she points to new and developing tools that can be used to improve a screen reader's understanding and focus.28.

Summarize the main idea and the main point（s. of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Things to Do After You Study Many students study with little thought about what comes after their study session. But what you do after studying could have an effect on how well you learn and remember new information. Today on Education Tips, we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you improve your learning：wakeful rest and sleep.When many students finish studying, they often go straight to another activity. Butresearch suggests that resting after you study may help you remember what you studied.The basic idea is this：by reducing your activity after the study session, your brain gets a chance to rest. Resting is difficult when you have too much stimulation from electronic devices, games, lights and so on.While this might sound unusual to you,many studies have explored the benefits of resting after learning - what is called "wakeful rest." A 2019 study found that both young and older adults were able to better remember, or recollect, information from prose passages after doing wakeful rest. The findings appeared in Neuroscience Letters. This studyinvolved 45 younger people and 40 elderly adults."Wakeful resting led to higher overall recollection in both age groups," the researchers noted. If you want to give "wakeful rest"a try,here are a few simple things to do. Rest quietly for five to ten minutes. Do not look atyour phone, read stories or play games. Just limit the amount of stimulation you get. It is really that easy!In addition to wakeful rest, sleep is also important for learning. The Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways. A report on the school's website explains that "a sleep-deprived person cannot focusattention optimally and therefore cannot learn efficiently." It also says,"sleep itself has a role in the consolidation of memory,which is essential for learning new information."Robert Stickgold, a doctor and sleep expert at Harvard Medical School, noted that new memories can be hard to keep. "When we first form memories, they're in a very raw and fragile form," he said. Sleep is important for forming memories.Now you have two suggestions for how to learn new information. Try to get some"wakeful rest" after a study session. Then try to get a good night's sleep. That's a simple way to help you remember what you learn.33.难道发展中国家不能举办世界博览会吗？（host）______34.今天我做了别人不愿做的事情，明天我就能做到别人做不到的事情。
