江苏省南京市2021届高三英语上学期期初学情调研试题
江苏省南京市2021届高三英语上学期期初学情调研试题（满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AIt's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes.They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment.They pay$5 for a caramel brulee latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions(性情），but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are,as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bem,by observing our own behavior.We can be strangers to ourselves.If we knew our own minds,why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book,we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually,we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover,we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character-we infer characters that weren't there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us,which we fail to recognize.Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't.Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us.We should not mistakenly believethat we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make,people become what they do,though it may not be in compliance(符合）with their true desires.Therefore,we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice:"We are what we pretend to be,so we must be careful about what we pretend to be."21.According to the passage,personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to_A.determine one's behaviorB.reflect one' s tasteC.influence one's surroundingsD.result from one's habits22.Which of the following would Daryl Bem most probably agree with?A.The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.B.A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C.One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D.One buys latte out of true love of coffee.23.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A.We fail to realize our inner dispositions.B.We can be influenced by outside pressures.C.Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D.Our characters can shape our social relationships.24.What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A.Personalities and attitudes.B.Preferences and habits.C.Behavior and personalities.D.Attitudes and preferences.BOne moment it was quiet and calm in the forest,the next,the air was charged with tension.The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed.l urged the elephant deeper into the forest.We sounded like a forest fire-crackling,snapping,trailblazing.But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry.The elephant stopped and we heard it again-the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest.Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches,beneath which the patchwork(交错）of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes(条纹）look more attractive.Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach,the forest was silent.Gradually,the tension slipped from our bodies.The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth.l reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck;there was a soft part,free of wrinkles and hairs,behind her ear.This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end.Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains,Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers,but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts(出没处），a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity.Still,I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear.If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger,l could have gone to a zoo.After all,spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty;tracking them can make you aware of something more.25.Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?A.The elephant stopped.B.A spotted deer called.C.The elephant seized a branch.D.The forest was silent for a while.26.The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by.A.describing various soundsparing different animalsC.listing different activitiesD.introducing various plants27.What does the underlined part"to sense the aura"most probably mean?A.To see the diversity.B.To enjoy the scenery.C.To feel the atmosphere.D.To experience the freedom.28.How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?A.Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.B.It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.C.It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.D.The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly.Sadly,biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid-we simply weigh too much,and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet,resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However,several types of animals can walk on water.One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus,a lizard(蜥蜴）native o Central and South America.It can run across water for a distance of several meters,avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet.The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward.For humans to do this,we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate＂hitting."But fortunately there is an alternative:cornflour.By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water(and it does take a lot),you can create a ＂non-Newtonian"liquid that doesn't behave like normal water.Now,if the surface of the water is hit hard enough,particles(粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard.Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step,and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound,it's still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice.If you must do it,then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink-and take a shower afterward!29.Walking on water hasn't become a reality mainly because humans.A.are not interested in itB.have biological limitationsC.have not invented proper toolsD.are afraid to make an attempt30.What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A.It is light enough to walk on water.B.Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C.It can run across water at a certain speed.D.Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.31.What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A.To create a thick liquid.B.To turn the water into solid.C.To help the liquid behave normally.D.To enable the water to move rapidly.32.What is the author's attitude toward the idea of humans' walking on water?A.It is risky but beneficial.B.It is interesting and worth trying.C.It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D.It is impractical though theoretically possible.DThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise.Some people believe that they can't help putting on weight as they get older,while others hold that if they stop exercising,their muscles will turn into fat.Here are some more myths:I' ll never lose weight-I come from a fat familyWrong!While we can't change the body type we are born with,we can't blame our genes for making us fat.There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families,and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercising too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong!Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢）。

But it wasn't through desperation that her circumstances changed: “I didn't get fed up and storm off, nothing like that; it was curiosity about other interests and wanting to experience something new."Fahey left her job and completed an MBA before setting up a move to New York to begin a degree. However, the opportunity of an open year between the MBA and the degree came up, and as a keen touring cyclist, Fahey realised that a much dreamed-about adventure was now becoming a possibility: “The ride in Africa had been on my fantasy list. It was a moment when I realized that I could do anything, so I should.Fahey rode across Africa,a 7,500-mile trip that took four months. The whole experience had a life-changing impact. Fahey said:“Bicycles provide a literal freedom. You don't allow yourself to feel like that in everyday life because there are so many distractions. But when you're out on the bike and there's nothing else, you're really free to experience what life is."Post-degree,Fahey worked on projects with the UNDP (United Nations Development Project) in Montenegro with the aim of bringing investment to rural communities.It was while working on these projects that the seeds were sown for the next new investment. “It was through my trip across Africa that I discovered pannier and rack (挂篓） systems inconvenient and I was never going to use them again." Little did she know this would lead her to start up her own company.In 2013,Apidura was born,producing storage solutions for people looking to travel the world by bike,race across continents and carry all they need to do so. It's now a successful global brand, but Fahey remains reflective about what else the company can do for people.24. Why did Fahey leave her job in Canada?A. She was bored with the job.B.She was disappointed with life.C. She wanted to add new dimensions to her life.D.She found it hard to adjust to the circumstances.25. Which can best describe Fahey's ride experience in Africa?A.Demanding.B. Liberating.C.Eventful.D.Dangerous.26.Why did Fahey launch Apidura?A. To encourage bicycle traveling.B. To make her investment profitable.C. To help cyclists carry traveling stuff.D. To increase the pleasure of riding bikes.27. What is the passage mainly about?A. A tough path to fame.B. An adventure across Africa.C. The benefits of green travelling.D. The story behind the birth of Apidura.CFolk tales have saddled (使承担）the moon with major responsibilities: moods, increases in crime and even mental disorders are blamed on the Earth's only constant natural satellite. But could the “lunar effect” disturb sleep?Scientists have long understood that human activity is facilitated by light, be it sunlight, moonlight or artificial light. But a recent study suggests our ability to sleep is distinctly affected by the lunar cycle, even when taking into account artificial sources of light.Using wrist monitors, researchers tracked sleep patterns in 98 individuals living in three local communities in Argentina over the course of one to two months. One rural community had no electricity access, a second rural community had limited access to electricity, while a third community was located in an urban setting and had full access to electricity.Participants in all three communities showed the same pattern of sleep oscillations (波动） as the moon progressed through its 29.5-day cycle, with sleep duration changing by between 20 and more than 90 minutes, and bedtimes varying by 30 to 80 minutes.In each community, the peak of participants sleeping less and staying up later occurred in the three-to-five-day period prior to full moon nights, and the opposite occurred on the nights before the new moon, the authors found.Unsurprisingly, data showed the “lunar phase effect” on sleep appeared to be stronger the more limited access to electricity was.“The result strongly suggests that human sleep is synchronized(同步）with lunar phases regardless of ethnic and socio- cultural background and of the level of urbanisation,” the researchers wrote in the journal Science Advances.De la Iglesia added: “We humans tend to believe that we managed to somehow control nature, and the use of artificial light is a great example of that. But it turns out that there are some forces of nature that we cannot get away from."Derk-Jan Dijk, a professor of sleep and physiology and the director of a sleep research centre at the University of Surrey, described the study as exciting but noted that the researchers had not addressed internal influences such as body clocks that could affect sleep patterns.28. What is the recent study mainly about?A. The harm of lunar effect.B. The reliability of folk tales.C. The function of artificial light.D. The effect of the lunar cycle on sleep.29. When did the participants in the experiment sleep least?A. On the full moon night.B. On the new moon night.C. On the night after the new moon.D.On the night before the full moon.30. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph but one refer to?A. Controlling nature.B. The level of urbanisation.C.The escape from forces of nature.D. Synchronizing with lunar phases.31.What did Derk-Jan Dijk think of the research findings?A.Groundless.B.Persuasive.C.Incomplete.D. Impressive.DHigh-pitched(高音的）and yet distinct, the sound of a voice calling the name “Amy”is unmistakable. But this isn't a human cry-it's the voice of a killer whale called Wikie.New research reveals that orcas (杀人鲸） are able to imitate human speech, saying words such as “hello”，“one, two” and “bye hye". The study also shows that the creatures are able to copy unfamiliar sounds produced by other orcas.Writing in the journal Biological Sciences, researchers from institutions in Germany, UK, Spain and Chile, describe how they carried out the latest research with Wikie, a 14-year-old female orca living in an aquarium (水族馆） in France.After first brushing up Wikie's grasp of the “copy” command, she was trained to imitate three familiar orca sounds made by her 3-year-old Moana. Wikie was then additionally exposed to five orca sounds she had never heard before, including noises sounding like a creaking (嘎吱响） door. Finally, Wikie was exposed lo a human making three of the orca sounds, as well as six human sounds, including “hello”，“Amy”，“ah ha”，“one, two" and“bye bye”。
