The advertisement is probably intended for ________.A. full-time college studentsB. working businessmenC. studying teenagersD. retired managersBShould doctors ever lie to benefit their patients — to speed recovery or to cover the ing of death. In medicine as in law, government and other lines of work, the requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed (变矮小)by greater needs: the need to shelter from brutal news or to uphold a promise of secrecy or to promote the public interest.What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man ing in for a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation with his family who, though he feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months. Is it best to tell him the truth? If he asks, should doctors lie that he is not ill, or minimize the gravity of the illness? Should they at least hide the truth until after the family vacation?Doctors face such choices often. At times, they see important reasons to lie for the patients' own sake; in their eyes, such lies differ sharply fromself-serving ones.Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their condition, and that informing them risks destroying their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate (恶化)faster, perhaps even mit suicide.But other studies show that, contrary to the belief of many physicians, a great majority of patients do want to be told the truth, even about serious illness, and feel cheated when they learn that they have been misled. We are also learning that truthful information, kind-hearted conveyed, helps patients cope with illness: help them tolerate pain better, need less medicine, and even recover faster after an operation.There is an urgent need to debate this issue openly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception (欺骗). Yet the public has every reason to know the professional deception, for such practices are peculiarly likely to bee deeply rooted, to spread, and to trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be fort in the old saying, "What you don't know can't hurt you."61. The requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed by the following needs except ________.A. the need to shelter from brutal newsB. the need to promote the public interestC. the need to expose big corruptionsD. the need to uphold the promise of secrecy62. As to the 46-year-old man mentioned in the passage, doctors ________.A. may be in a dilemmaB. should tell him the truthC. should hide the truthD. must let him go on vacation63. According to some studies, most of the doctors believe the followings except ________.A. that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their conditionB. that the truthful information may make the patients recover slowlyC. that the patients do want to be told the truthD. that the truthful information can even make the patients mit suicide64. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the last paragraph?A. There is a need to discuss whether to lie or not.B. The writer believes “What you don’t know can’t hurt you”.C. Many practitioners may try to avoid serious consequences through deception.D. The public has every reason to know the professional deception.65. What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A. Deception is beneficial to patients.B. Whether patients should be told the truth of their illness.C. Whether patients really want to know the truth of their illness.D. Who benefits from deception.CSeals may be able to detect fish up to 100 m away using only their whiskers (胡须), say scientists. Researchers used an artificial fish in their experiment, to create a “trail” in the water that a seal could detect. They described how a trained seal, named Henry, was able to indicate, with a rapid movement of its head, whether the fish moved to the right or to the left.The study was led by Wolf Hankie of the Marine Science Center at the University of Rostock, Germany. He explained how the seal wore a blindfold (眼罩) and headphones during the experiment to ensure that it could only pick up waves created by the fish with its whiskers. “The animals are actually enthusiastic to wear the mask because it means play time and food rewards,” explained Dr. Hankie.“We had a small box in the pool to achieve calm water conditions,” h e explained. “The seal stayed in the box.” Inside the box, the scientists created a trail with their artificial fish, which was actually a rubber fin (鳍) on a stick that created a trail similar to the swimming motion of a real fish. They operated the fin from outside the box, moving it from left to right or from right to left. The seal responded to the movement by turning its head in the direction that the fin had moved. The seal was able to sense and indicate the direction in which the fin travelled up to 35 seconds after the movement had stopped.Dr. Hankie believes that seals may also be able to “analyze” the structure of a trail to “work out” more about its source. He and his colleagues used different shapes of fin to create different water disturbances. “They seem to be able to detect differences between different shapes, which might even meanthat they can make out different species of fish. We had a surprising result from an experiment with one seal following another,” he said. “The trail left by the first seal was two meters wide, and the second following seal was able to stay right in the middle of it, so it seems they can analyze the internal structure of a trail.”The researchers are now making experiments using live fish to see how closely seals are able to follow their moving path.66. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Seals can track movements in the water.B. An experiment on seals.C. Seals can make out different species of fish.D. Seal whiskers sense faraway fish.67. The un derlined word “trail” means ________.A. waveB. markC. signalD. fish68. The seal wore blindfold and headphones so that ________.A. it could listen to instructions of the scientistsB. the scientists could spot the seal better in the waterC. it could only detect the trail with its whiskersD. it could bee calm69. We can draw a conclusion that seal whiskers are ________.A. dullB. sensitiveC. artificialD. poisonous70. Why did Dr. Hankie and his colleagues use different shapes of fin to createdifferent water disturbances?A. To make the result more correct.B. To find out whether the seal could distinguish different species of fish.C. To make the seal more enthusiastic and active.D. To see if the seal cold work out their sources.PART Ⅳ WRITING (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blankets by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.The search for sustainable sources of energy has led humans to study the energy potential of the sun and the wind, as well as the huge power created by dammed rivers. For example, it has been estimated that the oceans could provide nearly 3,000 times the energy produced by hydroelectric dams such as Hoover Dam. The oceans, too,represent an impressive source of potential energy. Yet, this source remains quite difficult to make use of.But this challenge has not prevented scientists from trying. Within the last few decades, several technologies that can transform the ocean’s huge forces into usable electricity have been invented and introduced. Some focus on capturing the power of the changing tides, while others rely on hot energy created by oceans in certain tropical region. However, the most mon and easiest technologies to develop are those designed to use the power in the ocean’s waves.The potential benefits of wave-based energy are hard to ignore. Once the proper machinery is produced and fixed, the energy is free. Maintenance costs are small and the equipment does not pose any threats of environmental pollution.And best of all the amounts of energy produced are enormous.However, these theoretical advantages have yet to be fully realized. In many cases, a lack of government funding has prevented the technologies from advancing. Protecting the equipment from the sea’s destructive forces, as well as the fundamental task of determining appropriate locations for collecting energy, also presents difficult challenges. All in all, while ocean power offers some attractive possibilities, the difficulties involved in using this energy source are substantial and will require more time to overe.to capturing the power of the changing tides 73 hot energy created by oceans using 74Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.My name is Bob. My first full-time job after high school was selling vacation packages via telephone for a well-known pany. One day, the dialer (接线员)connected me to a man who answered the phone and sounded a bit out of breath.I started with my normal tone, and expecting to hear the normal response, “I don’t want any”, and be hung up on.Instead he spoke in a weak voice and began to tell me how he wished he could take a vacation like the one I was offering, but he couldn’t because he was dying of emphysema. He explained how he was on oxygen, and it took almost all his energy just to get to the phone to answer the call. I apologized to him for that. He asked me if I smoked and then begged me to stop. He told me smoking is what was killing him. He told me to spend every day with my loved ones, and tell them all the time how much I love them. At this point, I was in tears, and couldn’t control myself, and he could tell. We ended the call, and I put my phone on hold to prevent another call from ing in so I could collect myself.After a few moments, I decided to write down his name and address, and just send him a card telling him that I appreciated his advice and that I would pray for him and his family. Shortly after, I received a nice letter back from Frank, along with a picture of him and his wife. We continued to write back and forth over the next few months, and became very fond of each other. He was old enough to be my grandfather, and in many ways, I felt as if he was.About a year later I received a letter from his wife. When I read it, myeyes were filled with tears. She told me how Frank’s battle with the disease had finally e to an end, and he passed away shortly before Christmas. She wanted to thank me for the letters, and then explained how Frank touched many lives over the years. At his funeral, they read the first letter I had written to Frank to show how he affected a 19-year-old he had never even met.81. What would the customer normally do when the phone was connected?

My husband paid with a credit card, added her 39 , and we were off.“Mr Goldsmith!” our waitress ran out of the dinning room waving a receipt at him, “Thank you.”He looked at her as though he didn’t understand. We’ve all seen that universal 40 of confusion.“What did you give her?”I asked in a whisper, ___41___ if he had done something unreasonable or made a calculation error.“Wow, Dad,” our son said, sounding like a 10-year-old. “I’ve never seen a waitress 42 anyone out of the restaurant to say ‘thank you’ for the tip.”“She gave us great service.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AFor centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone’s life as nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organizations will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.The expression“give someone the cold shoulder”probably es from the physical act of turning your back toward someone instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy.

I’d been dreaming of an Olympic gold medal since I was eight——but gradually, that dream seemed like a million miles away.On January 2, xx, while Mom was visiting me in Iowa, I told her, “I don’t like gymnastics anymore. I want to try dancing, or bee a singer. I can get a job in Virginia. I just want to e home.”Mom’s eyes narrowed and her expression turned to stone. “You’re breaking my heart Brie.”She said. “you’ve been doing gymnastics for ten years, and now you want to quit? Have you lost your mind?”I hadn’t lost my mind, but I had lost my fire. It’s an entirely different thing to push toward that dream when you feel alone.“I’m not trying to break your heart, Mom,” I said. “I just don’t want to do it anymore.”“I know you miss home. But you’ve signed a contract that says you will represent your country to the best of your ability. You’ve got a responsibility to your teammates. And now you just want to walk away? I will not let you be dishonorable. If you don’t like gymnastics, then at the very least, you will finish the season.”The next afternoon as I dragged myself into Chow’s gym. I thought of the efforts Mom had made in order to pay for my training. I thought of my two sisters: Arielle, who gave up ballroom dancing, and Joyelle, who stopped ice skating so that our single mom could afford to keep me in gymnastics.For now, here’s what you need to know: Exactly 210 days before I ever attempted my first vault(跳跃)in the London Summer Olympics, my leap of faith came this close to ending in a crash of disaster.66.

A gymnastic player who wants to give up petition.Part IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.With its fascinating and artistic acpanying music, singing and costumes, the Peking Opera is China’s national opera. Full of Chinese cultural facts, the opera presents the audience with an encyclopedia(百科全书)of Chinese culture, as well as developing stories, beautiful paintings, magnificent costumes, graceful gestures and martial arts. Since Peking Opera enjoys a higher reputation than other local operas, almost every province in China has more than one Peking Opera troupe. Opera is so popular among Chinese people, especially seniors, that even “Peking Opera Month” has been declared.Peking Opera’s main tune originated from Xipi and Erhuang in Anhui and Hubei and, over time, techniques from many other local operas were incorporated into Peking Opera.It is believed that Peking Opera gradually came into being after 1790 when the famous four Anhui opera troupes came to Beijing. Peking Opera experienced fast development during the period of Emperor Qianlong and the infamous Empress Cixi, eventually being more accessible to the mon people.In ancient times, Peking Opera was performed mostly on stage in the open air, teahouses or temple courtyards. Since the orchestra played loudly, the performers developed a sharp style of singing. The costumes were a gorgeous collection of sharply contrasting colors to stand out on the stage lighted only by oil lamps. Peking Opera is a harmonious bination of the Grand Opera, ballet and acrobatics (杂技),consisting of dance, dialogue and martial arts.The Peking Opera band mainly consists of an orchestra and percussion(打击乐器)band. The former frequently acpanies peaceful scenes while the latter provides the right atmosphere for battle scenes. The orchestral instruments include the Erhu, Huqin, Yueqin, Sheng, Pipa and other instruments. The band usually sits on the left side of the stage.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to theinformation given in the passage.Life on earth depends on water, and there is no substitute for it. The current assumption is that our basic needs for water —whether for drinking, agriculture, industry or the raising of fish will always have to be met. Given that premise(前提), there are two basic routes we can go: more access to water or more engineering solutions (more dams, for instance).Looking at the engineering solution first, a lot of my research concentrates on what happens to wetlands when you build dams in river basins, particularly in Africa. The ecology of such areas is almost entirely driven by the seasonal regime of the river, or rather, the pulse of the water. And the fact is that if you build a dam, you generally spoil the downstream ecology. In the past, such problems have been hidden by a lack of information. But in the next century, governments will have no excuse for their ignorance. The engineers ability to control water flows has created new kinds of unpredictability. Dams in Africa have meant fewer fish, less grazing and less agriculture —none of which were expected.The challenge for the next century is to find new means of controlling water. Although GM technology will allow us to breed better dry-land crops, there is no market stimulation for panies to develop crops suitable for the micro-climates of the Sahel and elsewhere in Africa. Who is going to pay for research on locally appropriate crops in the Third World?This brings us to the key issue in any discussion of water: money. In the next century, just consider the problems of water supply in Mexico City or Delhi. If you’re rich, you drink mineral water and may even have a swimming pool —yet millions in such cities can’t get safe drinking water. People talk about the ing water crisis. I believe we have one now. It is a water crisis for the poor.81. According to the passage, what are the two ways to solve the problem of water crisis? (no more than 8 words) (2 marks)82. What will happen when dams are built in river basins in Africa? (no more than 6 words)(3marks)83. Why are panies not willing to develop locally appropriate crops for Third World? (no more than 6 words) (3 marks)精品文档娄底市高三联考英语试卷答案{32899 8083 肃, 30051 7563 畣32453 7EC5 绅S_21652 5494 咔i35047 88E7 裧p#28881 70D1 烑实用文档。

D.It saves you time for cooking.BPerhaps thousands of people have searched for a bronze chest full of gold and jewels hidden in the Rocky Mountains between Santa Fe and the Canadian border hidden by a millionaire adventurer. At least four people died in their search for the treasure.But it's all over now. Fenn's Treasure has been found. The 89-year-old adventurer named Forrest Fenn, who created the treasure hunt, announced the news via his website. “I don't know the person who found it, but the poem in my book led him to the precise spot,” Fenn wrote. “The treasure was confirmed by a photograph the lucky finder sent me.”Forrest Fenn, the man who started the hunt, lives in Santa Fe. He was a pilot in the Vietnam War and later accumulated his wealth as a dealer in art and antiques. Fenn was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer in 1988 and had planned to die peacefully in the woods with his treasure. But when his cancer became less serious, he changed his plan, eventually writing the poem that described his dream resting place, which is where he hid the treasure. The poem appeared in a memoir called The Thrill of the Chase. Fenn said that the chest wouldn't be found by accident; only a treasure hunter who correctly interpreted the clues(线索) would find it.Several treasure hunters went missing while attempting to find the chest, including hunter Jeff Murphy and Mike Petersen, both of whom went missing in Yellowstone National Park in 2017. Fenn said that he had never been to the Yellowstone National Park, and that the treasure was not in a dangerous place. "It was in thethick forest of the Rocky Mountains and had not been moved from the spot where I hid it more than 10 years ago," Fenn wrote on his website. It is illegal to remove anything from a national park, which would cause trouble in legally claiming the treasure if it was found there.4.What contributed to the finding of the treasure?A.Fenn's announcement. B.A poem in Fenn's book.C.Fenn’s vivid description.D.A photo on Fenn's website.5.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.Who Forrest Fenn was. B.Where Fenn hid the treasure.C.How the treasure hunt began. D.What Fenn did to find the treasure.6.What can we learn about "Fenn's Treasure”?A.It was in Yellowstone National Park.B.It was found by someone by chance.C.It was moved from one place to another.D.It was in Fenn's chosen resting place.7.What does the underlined word “claiming” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Taking. B.Burying. C.Protecting. D.Acknowledging.CNot buying things can be difficult, even when you're determined not to. For many people, a no-buy year is simply a way of life because their financial situation leaves them no other choice. But for others—myself included—we have enough clothes, shoes, electronic devices, books, and so on. Yet, we continue to buy.If you're going to try a no-buy year, the first step is identifying why you're doing it. Is it to save money? Pay off debt? Have more money for experiences? To be more sustainable? Without a goal, failure is likely. I say this based on my experience.Last year, I wanted to take my sons on vacation where I could afford the rental and good meals. So I set a goal. That goal was not to buy anything I didn't need. A month before we went, I realized I needed to do more.I decided that I wouldn't spend money going out socially. I eventually reached my goal.After vacation, I went back to my regular spending habits. But I wonder what would have happened if I'd maintained the stricter habits. There are many experiences I would love to have—concerts and music festivals are at the top of the list. Yet, I often buy little things—like $20 shoes instead of tickets to concerts. If I could forgo those little things, I would probably go to a lot more concerts.I think the no-buy movement is something that would bring us some happiness. Still, it's difficult. Eventhough we're surrounded by things, we manage to convince ourselves that none of those things are the “perfect” things for our immediate need.I'm going to set another goal right now.

Since then, the cities surrounding the volcano have been covered with ash and many people are forced to leave home.But the ash didn't stop the residents of Binan, a city that is 35 km south of Manilla, from finding a way to help their neighbors in the towns that suffered the most from Taal. Binan Mayor Walfredo Dimaguila ordered the city residents to collect the ash and to put it in sacks (麻袋) to be sent to the state-owned factory that can produce 5,000 bricks a day to turn it into bricks to use for rebuilding damaged communities.“What we plan is to turn them into hollow blocks and bricks and sell them to interested companies,” Dimaguila said. But he noted, the money would be donated to the people directly affected by the volcano. “When Batangas (the region where Taal is located) is in recovery, the bricks can not only be used to build schools, community halls and livelihood centers but also help deal with ash pollution for the earth,” Dimaguila said. “The misfortune of our neighbors in Batangas is there.
