2020-2021学年江苏省溧水高级中学初中部高三英语二模试题及答案解析
2020-2021学年江苏省溧水高级中学初中部高三英语二模试题及答案解析第一部分阅读（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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AThe history ofpop art begins with abstract art. Pop art emerged from the foundation of abstract art in the 1950s, first gaining recognition in Great Britain, then establishing itself in the United States in the 1960s.In the 1930s and 1940s, abstract art was greatly popular, but people began to hate this art form. Most abstract art produced in this era could be found in art galleries or the homes of the elite(名流), not in the homes of everyday people. Pop art sprung onto the scene as the people's art.Some art critics say pop art is a rebellion against abstract art; others say it is an extension of abstract art. You can see elements of abstract art in many pop art prints, especially those that consist of a collage（拼贴画）of images. However, some pop art pieces have nothing to do with abstract art, looking more like a photo of a popular consumer item, which impressed people deeply.Richard Hamilton and Eduardo Paolozzi were two of the first contemporary pop art pioneers recognised in Great Britain. They were a part of the Independent Group, an organised group of British artists who wanted to challenge ruling modernist approaches to culture. They recognised the value of modern advertising and comic book images. They used these popular images in art as a social commentary, often building irony and humour into their artworks, thus creating a new form of art. These pieces were mass-produced and sold at affordable prices.When pop art took off in the United States, it expanded to include a celebration of kitsch and the common images found in movies and television. Andy Wharhol is perhaps the most famous American pop art artist, known for his prints of the actress Marilyn Monroe, the singer Elvis Presley and of Campbell's soup cans. Andy Wharhol was inspired by images from advertisements and common consumer items. He also made a series of paintings which showed images of car accidents.1. Why did people dislike abstract art?A. People found it hard to understand.B. Ordinary people couldn't afford it.C. People disliked enjoying it in galleries.D. It wasn't based on everyday life.2. What impression do pop art works leave on people?A. They are a rebellion against abstract art.B. They have many elements of abstract art.C. They are created so real.D. They are products of advertisers.3. The Independent Group was set up to ________.A. introduce a new art form to the worldB. develop modern advertising furtherC. create new comic book imagesD. make British culture better knownBWhat about your emotions? How do they help you to understand what you are reading?In Jane Yolan'sOwl Moon,a girl explores with her father on a snowy night. She longs for this special night.And she's amazed when she sees an owl.Have you felt longing before? Amazement? Well, if you have, it helps you have a sense of agreement. When we can put ourselves inside a story we can understand it better. Our brain tells us,"Oh, this girl's experience is a bit like mine."And boom! We can relate to her.But this skill is not born in us.So young kids have to learn it.Pictures and images help young readers to understand and recognize feelings.Readers feel joy when seeing the smiling faces of friends.They feel fear when turning the page to find a scary monster. They are just pictures,but the feelings are real. This skill, to understand the thinking and feeling of others, is what researchers call "theory of mind".For example, think about the faces of people and animals in stories. The Big Bad Wolf's scary teeth. The 'o' shape of a surprised character's mouth. Or big, wide eyes like the girl inOwl Moon.By noticing the faces,readers can start to figure out what it feels like to be that character.And that helps to figure out how people feel and think in real life.But most young readers don't go into deep,scary woods.And some may not go to the beach or play basketball.In the bookYo!Yes?two kids meet and play ball. The kids start the story on opposite pages.But as the story goes on,they get closer until they are together.Some young readers might not play basketball, but they can read the clues on the page to figure out how the kids are feeling.And some readers might not like the game,but they can feel excited for the characters because of how the characters look and move.4. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A.Owl Moontalks about the exploration of the Moon.B. The feeling of"amazement"is a sense of agreement.C. Readers are blessed with the ability to interpret others.D. Readers with similar experience understand the story better.5. Which of the following might help readers develop"theory of mind"?A. True feelings.B. Smiling faces.C. Picture books.D. Reading skills.6. Young readers can go deeper into a story by________.A. tracking the plotB. developing new skillsC. sharing similar hobbiesD. analyzing the background7. What is the text mainly about?A. How thinking influences reading.B. How readers improve reading skills.C. How emotions help enhance reading.D. How kids figure out the clues of stories.CLight pollution is a significant but overlooked driver of the rapid decline of insect populations, according to the most comprehensive review of the scientific evidence to date.Artificial light at night can affect every aspect of insects' lives, the researchers said. "We strongly believe artificial light at night — in combination with habitat loss, chemical pollution.invasive (入侵的) species, and climate change — is driving insect declines, " the scientists concluded after assessing more than 150 studies.Insect population collapses have been reported around the world, and the first global scientific review published in February,said widespread declines threatened to cause a "catastrophic collapse of nature's ecosystems".There are thought to be millions of insect species, most still unknown to science, and about half are active at night. Those active in the day may also be disturbed by light at night when they are at rest.The most familiar impact of light pollution is moths (飞蛾) flapping around a bulb, mistaking it for the moon. Some insects use the polarisation of light to find the water they need to breed, as light waves line up after reflecting from a smooth surface. But artificial light can scupper (使泡汤) this. Insects areimportant prey (猎物) for many species, but light pollution can tip the balance in favour of the predator if it traps insects around lights. Such increases in predation risk were likely to cause the rapid extinction of affected species, the researchers said.The researchers said most human-caused threats to insects have analogues in nature, such as climate change and invasive species. But light pollution is particularly hard for insects to deal with.However, unlike other drivers of decline, light pollution is ly easy to prevent. Simply turning off lights that are not needed is the most obvious action, he said, while making lights motion-activated also cuts light pollution. Shading lights so only the area needed is lit up is important. It is the same with avoiding blue-white lights, which interfere with daily rhythms. LED lights also offer hope as they can be easily tuned to avoid harmful colours andflicker rates.8. What is discussed in the passage?A. Causes of declining insect populations.B. Consequences of insect population collapses.C. Light pollution: the key bringer of insect declines.D. Insect declines: the driver of the collapsed ecosystem.9. What is the 5th paragraph mainly about?A. How light travels in space.B. How light helps insects find food.C. How the food chain is interrelated.D. How light pollution affects insects.10. What does the underlined word"analogues"in Paragraph 6probably mean?A. Selective things.B. Similar things.C. Variations.D. Limitations.11. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A. To offer solutions.B. To give examples.C. To make comparisons.D. To present arguments.DIt is that time of year when people need to lock their cars. It’ s not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, it’ s because of the good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this year’s large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it full of zucchini(西葫芦).My sister-in-law, Sharon, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they began to feel their skin turn slightly red. That ’ s when she decided it was time to share herblessings.She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began to ask everyone in the neighborhood like a politician, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “ Feel free to take whatever you want,”Sharontold her. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn’t go to waste.A few days later,Sharonanswered the door. There was the neighbor, holding some bread. The neighbor smiledpleasantly, “I want to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hope you wouldn’t mind.”Sharoncouldn’t think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so. “Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said. “You had some of the prettiest zucchini I’ve ever seen.”Sharonwas confused. Zucchini in her garden? They hadn’ t even planted any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables,Sharonsmiled, “ Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating or canning.”The neighbor looked atSharon, shock written all over her face. Then she smiled, and held out the bread that she had shared all over the neighborhood, “I brought you a loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you like it.”12. Why does the author suggest that people in the neighborhood should lock their cars?A. They might be stolen by thieves.B. They might be moved away by the police.C. Their neighbors might fill them with their harvest.D. Their neighbors might throw rubbish in them.13. What does the underlined word “blessings” in the second paragraph mean?A. Tomatoes.B. God’s protection.C.Helpful things.D. Best wishes.14. What did the neighbor do inSharon’s garden?A. She harvested tomatoes only.B. She harvested zucchini by accident.C. She took some cucumbers mistakenly.D. She stole something withoutSharon’s permission.15. We can infer from the article that the neighbor’s bread would taste________.A. bitter but tastyB. strange and bitterC. hard and sourD. soft and sweet第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

Whenever we met my new neighbours, I always spoke, but the only 17 I ever got was a hello from the 4-year-old girl.I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned, they were just coming from their home and the little girl was holding the door open for others. I stayed in the car doing unnecessary things as I wasn’t in a 18 . The parents were telling her to get into the car immediately. I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me.As a disabled man, I can’t hurry at 19 , but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. She was smiling like a lovely angel. I was so 20 by her small act of kindness. That afternoon I was shopping and I saw a white bear. I thought of the girl and said to myself. “I believe she would like that” so I bought it.The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her parents. She was so 21 of her bear and thanked me as if I had never been thanked before. The mother and father both thanked me.Now when we meet, we all speak, and in a friendly manner I might add. As time passes, I don’t hear that shouting as often. 22 , hardly at all.Last night we had about four inches of snow. I looked out at my car and wondered 23_ I was going to keep my doctor’s appointment(约会). When I opened theoutside door, there was my car with all the snow cleaned. I can’t express how I felt at that moment. The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building, 24 when I saw him the next day, I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow. He said No. He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it.Isn’t it amazing that a 4-year-old girl can change so many things for the better?

We cannot see them because they are so small，but they are everywhere. They live in the soil，in the air，and in rivers and oceans．They grow on mountains and in caves．Some live in the ice at the north and south poles; some live where it is very hot. They are found throughout cities and in the country. They grow on other plants and animals．Some are even living on you，on your skin，hair，and inside your body，in your mouth，nose，and all through your body．These tiny plants and animals are called microbes．The word microbe is made from two other words：micro，meaning small，and bios，meaning life．So，microbe means small life．Microbes have been on earth for a very long time．They may have been the first forms of life to be alive．Today there are more microbes in the world than all other living things．People did not know microbes had existed（存在）long．They were too small for them to see．But people did see many changes in their world﹣important changes．And they did not know what caused them．They saw food that they kept too long change color and begin to smell bad．They saw cuts and wounds grow red and painful andbecome worse. They saw old plants and leaves and trees crumble apart on the forest floor and disappear into the soil ．Such changes were a natural part of the world ，but people did not understand them ．They did not know these changes were evidence(证据) of tiny plants and animals growing all around them.( )31.Why couldn't people see microbes ？A ．Because they are too small ．B ．Because they live inside our body ．C ．Because they live far from humans ．D ．Because they may have been the first forms of life to be alive ．( )32.The underlined phrase" crumble apart" in the last paragraph means""．A ．grow tallerB ．change into soilC ．break into tiny piecesD ．become colorful and energetic( )33.Choose the answer that completes the web below ．A ．Microbes are very smallB ．Microbes are all around usC ．People can't see microbesD ．Food begins to smell bad DFor years people have enjoyed following the life of Garfield the Evidence thatmicrobes existCuts and wounds get red and painful Leaves disappearinto soil?cat. Garfield is a popular comic book character, known for being lazy and fat. But the cat was back in the news recently for something you might not expect.A man in the United States changed the gender (性别) of Garfield to “none” on the cat’s Wikipedia (维基百科) page. After that lots of people got angry and kept changing Garfield’s Wikipedia page. They argued about whether the cat was a boy, girl or neither. Wikipedia finally locked the page to stop people editing it. Jim Davis, Garfield’s creator, settled (解决) the argument.“Garfield is male,” he simply told the Washington Post. The 71-year-old artist said he liked working with animals because they didn’t have to be old, young, boys or girls. He was angry that some people cared so much about Garfield’s gender.It seems like quite an unnecessary argument to have. But it is not the only recent example of argument about gender.To celebrate International Women’s Day in Australia earlier this year, the city of Melbourne made 10 traffic lights with a figure (人形) dressed in a skirt. They were designed to celebrate women and give them more confidence in public.But not everyone thinks the idea is necessary.

Humans live in a society． Not only verbal （语言的） communication， we also use our bodies to help us better express our thoughts and feelings． This non﹣verbal communication is known as body language．Body language is made up of things like facial expressions （面部表情）， eye contact and body movements． In fact， it came to be used as a form of communication before humans could speak or write．We can tell a lot about what a person is thinking or feeling just by looking at them．Body language is so widely used that you may not realize that you are sending many messages to others，though you haven't said anything．For example， you might move your head from side to side to express the word "no" instead of saying the word． You might give a "thumbs up" to show that you like or agree with something． You might cross your fingers in the shape of a heart if you want to show love．But since we are spending more time online， we may not have as many face﹣to﹣facecommunications as before． Because of this， our ways of non﹣verbal communication have changed，but it is still an important way to show our thoughts．Our "digital （数字的） body language" is becoming increasingly important as we change how we communicate． For example， instead of using voice messages， you can video chat with your friends to show them your smiling face．Another way to express your feelings digitally is using emojis （表情符号）．"When we are communicating online，we are only showing the content and leaving out voices and facial expressions，" Moitree Banerjiee， a researcher at the University of Chichester in England， told Digital Trends． That's why emojis can help much in communication．24. In March， the city of Shenzhen announced that it would ban （禁止） the sale and eating of dog and cat meat． Some people（1）b________that this ban may be put intouse across the country． This has drawn attention from people both at home and （2）a________．In April， the government introduced a draft （草案） document． It says dogs will no longer be（3）t________ as livestock （家畜）． Also， to make the most people satisfied，public opinions will be collected （4）u________ May 8． As a result， many ideas have been heard so far．"Dogs have been seen as people's friends， and internationally are not thought to belivestock，" the notice said．In fact，the eating of dogs，cats and （5）o________pets is widely banned in Western countries．People share the room with dogs and think of them as family members．This （6）c________has been celebrated by animal rights groups all over theworld． Although some Chinese have given the world the impression that they（7）e________having dog meat， most Chinese do not eat it and say they never would， the BBC reported．However， the （8）o________of some businesses in China are against the draft． They think eating dog meat is part of the customs． Many of them are from Guangxi， where thousands of people make a （9）l________from selling dog meat．One businessman told the Global Times that the draft should （10）c________local living conditions．Once the dog meat industry is banned there， many people will lose their jobs．25.(20分) Flamingos, a kind of birds, are famous for their bright pink feathers, thinlegs, and S﹣shaped necks．They can（1）_______to be 50 inches tall and nearly 9 pounds in weight． Their wings can be（2）_______ to 60 inches long． Their favorite foods are shrimp, snails and some water plants．As social animals, flamingos enjoy（3）_______friendships． It is reported that friendships between flamingos usually last for years．From a five﹣year study, we know that flamingos often spend time with their close friends, but they（4）_______some other flamingos that they don't like．Researchers at the University of Exeter, UK, did a（5）_______ on four flamingo typesand found several social bonds （纽带）, including "married" couples, same﹣sex friendships and even groups of three and four close friends．"Our results （6）_______hat flamingo societies are complex． They have long﹣standing friendships rather than random （随意的） connections．" said Paul Rose, one of the researchers．They don't（7）_______find a partner and spend all of their time with them． Whenthey have found partners, they still have other friends． It tells us that long﹣lasting friendships may be important for them to（8）_______in the wild．This finding could help zookeepers take better care of flamingos． They can be careful not to（9）_______ flamingos that are close with each other．According to an international report, flamingos are not threatened（受到威胁的）at present．（10）_______, Chilean and James' flamingos are near threatened because their numbers are small or going down．For example, the total James's flamingo population is about 106, 000．（1）A.feedB.jumpC.growD.raise（2）A.collectedB.spreadC.discoveredD.brought（3）stingB.excitingC.challengingD.interesting（4）A.remainB.avoidC.checkD.expect（5）A.researchB.systemC.courseD.reply（6）A.showpareC.attractD.shape（7）A.simplyB.luckilyC.secretlyD.terribly（8）A.saveB.fightC.increaseD.survive（9）A.forceB.admireC.separateD.connect（10）A.SoB.HoweverC.OtherwiseD.Moreover26.
