2022届广东省茂名市高三第一次综合测试(一模)英语试题
2022届广东省茂名市高三第一次综合测试（一模）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Paris 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.I became aware of my stutter (结巴) when I was around 9, in the fourth grade. I began to see how other people viewed me. When the teacher asked the whole class questions, I never raised my hand though I knew the answer, because I knew I would stutter. Some kids would tell me that I talked funny, ask why I didn't talk normally, or laugh at me. As soon as that started to happen, I became more introverted (内向的).It wasn't until the summer of 2015, before freshman year at high school. All my friends and my parents encouraged me to join the high school football team. I owed much to them, especially Coach Lane who taught me how to play football. He took the time-and had the patience-to actually teach me what to do, how to do it and how to understand the concepts of play.In junior year, I started my first game for the high school team. I had a very good season and in January 2018, I signed the University of North Carolina. The older we get, the more of an understanding we have about the world and other people. So the first time my teammates in college heard me talk and heard that I stuttered, they did not say a thing. That was a big deal to me because I was so used to people making comments. My teammates actually tell me to slow down because talking faster causes me to stutter more. It's really helped me develop confidence.Whenever I go back home to Georgia, I volunteer with children at my church, including those who have learning disabilities. I like to do that to inspire them with confidence. I had confidence issues when I was a kid because of my stutter, so I just don't want them to have to go through what I did. In the future, I would like to start a foundation to give back to people who stutter and create a program where kids all across the world who have a stutter can have a safe space.4．Why did NOT the author raise his hand in class?A．He didn't know the answer.B．He was too shy to speak in public. C．He was upset about kids' comments.D．He showed no interest in the question.5．What was one cause of the author's decision to play football?A．Guidance from coaches.B．Great interest in football. C．Expectations from parents.D．Encouragement from friends. 6．Which of the following best describes the author?A．Grateful and caring.B．Helpful and talkative.C．Athletic and generous.D．Confident and patient.7．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．An Unconfident Child B．An Introverted VolunteerC．An Admirable Coach D．An Inspiring FootballerA paper published on November 15 in Current Biology suggests that a patch (小块) of cells developed for identifying human faces, the fusiform face area (FFA), is up and running in infants (婴儿) as young as two months old.Rebecca Saxe, a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and her colleagues scanned 42 infants ranging in age from two to nine months using a special functional magnetic resonance (磁共振) imaging (fMRI) helmet designed specifically for babies. Data from 16 of the infants had to be thrown out because it is extremely difficult to keep them happy, still and awake for long. For the 26 remaining infants, the scientists compared activity in visual areas of the brain while they watched 2.7-second video clips that described faces, body parts, landscapes, and other objects. Results showed more activity in the areas of the brain's visual system that are specialized for recognizing faces, bodies and scenes than areas for other observed objects."There's every reason to think that babies are born expecting and looking for their most important social partners, Saxe says." Something in their brain makes them interested in faces actually before they've had any experience with faces at all. Babies look toward face-like images from hours after birth."Other researchers are not convinced by Saxe's conclusions. "I don't believe that there are face patches present at birth," Livingstone says. He views experience and learning are essential for the development of the FFA．To Kalanit Grill-Spector, a psychology professor at Stanford University, the most exciting part of the new paper is not about this question of learned versus inborn development. "I think the study is kind of attempting to address this question, but it doesn't really provide aperfect answer one way or another. What impressed me is the amount of babies that they've scanned and with a lot of new innovations in baby fMRI," she says. "That's going to push the field forward."8．Why were the data from the 16 infants abandoned?A．Because the infants didn't watch the video clips.B．Because the infants made no response to the objects.C．Because the infants couldn't focus on objects for some time.D．Because the infants were unwilling to wear helmets for long.9．How did the researchers get the results?A．By listing figures.B．By asking questions.C．By analyzing reasons.D．By making comparisons.10．Which statement would Rebecca Saxe probably agree with?A．Infants can process facial patterns and give them meaning.B．Specialized areas for recognizing faces are present at birth.C．Some abilities of the visual system are gradually developed.D．Experience and learning are essential for the development of the FFA．11．Which word best describes Grill-Spector's attitude to the way of the research? A．Objective.B．Skeptical.C．Favorable.D．Disapproving.The Amazon rainforest, is as undisturbed a place as most people can imagine, but even there, the effects of a changing climate are playing out. Now, research suggests that many of the region's most sensitive bird species are starting to evolve in response to warming.Birds are often considered sentinel（哨兵）species-meaning that they indicate the overall health of an ecosystem-so scientists are particularly interested in how they're responding to climate change. In general, the news has not been good. For instance, a 2019 report by the National Audubon Society found that more than two-thirds of North America's bird species will be in danger of extinction by 2100 if warming trends continue on their current course.For the new study, researchers collected the biggest dataset so far on the Amazon's resident birds, representing 77 non-migratory species and lasting the 40 years from 1979 to 2019. During the study period, the average temperature in the region rose, while the amount of rainfall declined, making for a hotter, dryer climate overall. According to the report on November 12 in the journal Science Advances, 36 species have lost substantial weight, asmuch as 2 percent of their body weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species showed some decrease in average body mass, while a third grew longer wings.Because of the study's long time series and large sample sizes, the authors were able to show the morphological（形态学的）effects of climate change on resident birds. However, the researchers themselves are unsure and wonder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds, but suppose smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cool. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate of surface area to body size, so they dissipate more heat faster than a bigger animal. Less available food, such as fruit or insects, in dryer weather might lead to smaller body size.12．Why are scientists fond of doing research on birds?A．They have small body sizes.B．They are sensitive to hot weather. C．They live in an undisturbed rainforest.D．They are ecological balance indicators. 13．What can we learn from the new study?A．A third of species have been extinct for a decade.B．36 species lost 2%of their body weight every year.C．Two-thirds of species showed a considerable decrease in weight.D．About 26 species responded to climate change with longer wings.14．What does the underlined word "dissipate" in the last paragraph mean?A．Put off.B．Give off.C．Put away.D．Give away. 15．What would probably the researchers further study?A．Why it is easier for smaller animals to keep cool.B．What effects the wing length changes have on birds.C．Why the Amazonian birds have lost substantial weight.D．Whether bird species in North America will be extinct in 2100.二、七选五Crossing the pedestrian bridge that connects our school to its surrounding neighborhood reminds us that there's more to Rochester than just our school. ____16____ By staying on campus all the time, we limit ourselves to just feeling like students and not people. Here's a list of things we can do around Rochester whenever we see it again.____17____ It's a big, wide open produce market that happens every Saturday on UnionStreet.

Puzzlerama & Juice CubesBThe Mokoko tribe (部落) lived on the wrong side of the island of two faces. The two sides, separated by a great cliff (悬崖), were like night and day. The good side was watered by rivers and was filled with trees and abundant food, while on the wrong side there was hardly any water or plants, and wild beasts crowded together. The Mokoko had the misfortune of having always lived there, with no way to cross to the other side. Their life was hard and they lived in permanent terror of the beasts.Along the edge of the cliff separating the two sides, a skinny but strong tree grew, with which they could build two poles. There was no doubt that the tribe would choose the great chief and doctor to use the poles. But when the two of them were given their chance to make the jump, they didn’t dare to. They thought that the pole could break or it would not be long enough. They put so much energy into these thoughts that they gave in.But into that tribe were born Nam and Ariki, a pair of young hearts. One day, they decided to take up the poles. Nobody stopped them, but everyone did try to discourage them, trying to present how dangerous the jumping was, using a thousand explanations.“And what if what they say is true?” wondered the young Naru.“Don’t worry. I am a bit scared too, but it doesn’t look so difficult,” replied Ariki, ever determined.“But if it goes wrong, it will be a terrible end,” continued Naru, undecided.“Perhaps the jump will go badly. But staying forever on this side of the island surely won’t work out well either.”“You’re right. Let’s do it tomorrow.”And on the next day, Naru and Ariki jumped to the good side of the island. When taking up the poles, while feeling their desire, the fear hardly allowed them to breathe. And while flying through the air, helpless and without support, they felt that something must have gone wrong and death awaited them. But when they landed on the other side, they thought the jump really hadn’t been so bad after all.24. What situation were the Mokoko faced with?A. They lived a difficult life without fearing the beasts.B. They suffered a lot due to the terrible environment.C. They had easy access to the good side.D. They were surrounded by trees and rivers.25. How did the chief and doctor feel when they were chosen?A. Frightened.B. Energetic.C. Desperate.D. Satisfied.26. What’s the tribe members’ reaction when Nam and Ar iki decided to take up the poles?A. The members desired to follow their steps.B. The members tried to prevent the behaviour.C. The members convinced them of the danger.D. The members encouraged them to have a try.27. What can we infer about Naru and Ariki?A. They overcame difficulty with courage and determination.B. They felt relaxed in the whole process of making the jump.C. They never doubted the difficulty in making the jump.D. They hesitated to make the jump over and over again.CHave you ever lost your car on a parking lot? It happens. You park and go shopping. When you get back, you have no idea where your car is. It can be discouraging.You don’t need to install (安装) an expensive GPS system to keep track of your car. That’s too expensive. Y ou would need to pay a monthly subscription fee just to use it. But is there a way to track your vehicle without spending a fortune? Yes, now there is! A California-based start-up company was able to make this a reality. They created a tiny device (装置）that works with your smartphone, and it could be exactly what you’re looking for! It’s called TrackR Bravo. It’s changing the way we keep track of the important things in our lives.Install the free TrackR app on your smartphone, connect the app to your device and you’re ready to go! Simply attach TrackR to whatever you want to keep an eye on. The entire process of setting it up only takes 5 minutes or less. You can attach it to your keys, wallet and anything else you don’t want to lose. Then use the TrackR app to find where your missing item are in seconds.Forget expensive GPS systems or tracking services. Nobody wants to pay expensive monthly subscription fees. We understand how stressful these things can be, and this is the reason why the company created TrackR. This device is your VIP when you need to take care of important things.If you forget where you park your car, take out your smartphone and open the TrackR app. Tap on the “lost item” sign on the screen and the app will tell you the exact location. Th is device is by no means expensive. TrackR only costs $29, a small price to pay for peace of mind. The device is small enough that you can attach it to your pets. Put it on their collar, and you will never lose track of them! Attach it to your key or wallet, and never waste a minute rummaging the whole house for it.Since you’ve been informed about this brilliant invention, now attach it to everything that’s important to you.28. Why does the author mention the lost car in the first Paragraph?A. To explain how terrible the situation is.B. To stress the importance of being cautious.C. To lead to the topic concerning finding lost items.D. To provide one common example about theft.29. What’s the feature of the TrackR app?A. The process of setting up the app is complex.B. The cost of setting up the app is rather high.C. The app is available in any electronic equipment.D. The app helps locate the lost items in a short time.30. The TrackR was created because .A. life is full of all kinds of pressureB. tracking services cause financial burdenC. people want to keep their important items safeD. GPS systems can not provide specific location31. Which of the following is closest to the meaning of the underlined word ‘‘rummaging” in Paragraph 5?A. Searching.B. Destroying.C. Cleaning.D. Moving.DTwo heads are better than one. It means that two people working together have a better chance of solving a problem than one person alone. But not everyone likes working in a group.There can be a number of reasons why people dislike group work. Some may feel nervous or uneasy in group situations. Others might have had a bad experience with individuals who did not work well as a team. Another comment is that teachers or instructors fail to provide roles for group members. This may create a situation where everyone or no one wants to lead. Whatever the issue, the result is the same: the group does not realize its goal.Cooperative (合作的) learning is an educational method that can help to solve this problem. There are many methods of cooperative learning. Today we will talk about one: giving each person in a small group a specific duty to reach a shared goal. For example, if learners are divided into groups of four people each, their roles might be: leader, writer, checker and speaker. This structure helps ensure that everyone takes part equally in group work and allows each member to play a meaningful part in completing the shared goal.Before dividing learners into groups, it is a good idea for the tea cher or club’s instructor to first have knowledge about the language skill levels of participants. The goal is to make each group a mixture of higher- and lower-level language learners. Putting too many people with similar skill levels together could make the work too difficult or easy. Role cards can be a helpful tool in this method of cooperative learning. Their purpose is to remind learners of each person’s role.Before the cooperative activity, the role of the teacher or activity instructor is to explain two things to the group: the main job for the activity and how the cooperative roles work. The person in charge may appoint these roles or let the English learners choose them. Then, during the activity, the instructor’s job is to watch the groups and provide more guidance when needed. After the activity, the instructor may wish to provide feedback to groups on their work and their use of cooperation.With this cooperative learning method, you can say that four heads are better than just one.32. What’s t he outcome if people do not enjoy group work?A. The aim of the group can not be achieved.B. Specific roles will be given to group members.C. Group members will feel at ease in groups.D. Group members will fail to work individually.33. Why does the teacher need to know about those who take part in the activity?A. To find out language learners with similar levels.B. To clarify higher- and lower-level language learners.C. To combine learners with different language levels.D. To increase the difficulty in finishing the work.34. Which of the following is TRUE about the role of instructors?A. To offer group members timely help at each step.B. To listen to the response from group members.C. To help the English learners choose their favourite roles.D. To make clear about the task and working principles of the roles.35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Two Heads Are Better than One.B. Cooperation Is a Must in Learning.C. Group Work Makes a Great Difference to Learners’ Achievement.D. Cooperative Learning Contributes to the Success of Group Work.其次节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A.A book review.B.A website about tests.C.An academic article.D.A textbook.BWe’ve all been told that different types of fruits and vegetables have different benefits that help us maintain our health. A new international study has found that eating one fruit regularly can help reduce the risk of cancer, among those people who have a high risk of developing certain cancers.The research which followed almost 1000 patients with Lynch syndrome-a genetic condition that makes people predisposed to a range of cancers found that a regular intake of resistant starch (抗酶解淀粉) could have a major preventative effect on the risk of cancer. Here’s what you need to know about how eating bananas can help reduce risk of cancer.Resistant starch is a type of carbohydrate (碳水化合物) which feeds beneficial gut bacteria. It is found in green bananas. By eating green bananas your body gets a regular dose of resistant starch, which has been found to reduce risk of cancers in some parts of the body by more than half, according to the new research. The study, which was published in Cancer Prevention Research, was led by experts at the Universities of Newcastle and Leeds. It found that resistant starch, if taken regularly for an average of two years, had a positive effect on some cancers, which can be difficult to detect.John Mathers, a professor at Newcastle University explained: “Resistant starch acts in effect, like dietary fibre in your digestive system. This type of starch has several health benefits and fewer calories than regular starch.”Besides green bananas, resistant starch is also found in foods such as peas, oats, cereal, beans and other starchy foods. You can also take resistant starch as a powder supplement.In terms of bananas, experts recommend that eating one banana daily is the equivalent of one dose of resistant starch. The trick is to eat the bananas before they become too ripe or soft.4.Which of the following can prevent the risk of cancer? A.Carbohydrate. B.resistant starch. C.dietary fibre. D.gut bacteria.第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）高三英语 第1页（共8页）高三英语 第2页（共8页）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。

广东省茂名市电白区2022-2023学年高一上学期期中考试英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Handmade Canberra MarketEvent: 29 / 07 / 2022-31 / 07 / 2022The Handmade Canberra market is an event which happens 4 times each year and it sells jewellery, clothes, pet treats, foods, stationery, toys, garden sculptures and more! The large market is located in the Budawang Pavilion, Conference Centre and Coorong Pavilion at the EPIC (Exhibition Park in Canberra). It generally attracts about 20, 000 visitors over two days.It is an enjoyable way to spend the day as you walk through the stalls (摊位) enjoying the creativity of the talented (有才能的) people of Canberra and other parts of Australia. The event has free parking and entry (入场) only costs you a small donation (捐赠) to a local organization for helping the needy. If you get hungry after all the shopping, there are a number of delicious food choices in the Coorong Pavilion to choose from, as well as areas to sit and rest your feet.When the market first began in 2008, the organizer, Julie Nichols, started with 34 stalls — this has now increased to over 290 stalls at each event. Julie Nichols has won several awards (奖) for business, design and tourism because of the success of the market. Handmade Canberra celebrated its 10th birthday in 2018 and it has been a popular event with locals and visitors every year.With so many goods in one place, the Handmade Canberra market is a relaxing way to have a quiet shop by yourself or to walk around with friends and make a day of it. You are sure to go home with a piece not seen anywhere else.1、How often does the market usually open up?A. Once a month.B. Twice a month.C. Three times a year.D. Four times a year.2、Which of the following is free for visitors to the market?A. Parking their cars.B. Entering the market.C. Learning to make objects.D. Eating at the food tasting area.3、Why is Julie Nichols mentioned in the text?A. To show the development of the market.B. To explain the reason for opening the market.C. To introduce how the market influences locals’ life.D. To tell us how hard the success of the market comes.Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son. Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut," Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to cuddle up (依偎) against me on the sofa and talk," said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is understanding which time is which."Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their mind. "In fact, parents are first on the list," said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years," Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental(思想的) break, for children also need freedom, though young.

Of course I, as most people do, want to see an improvement in my grades. This year, however, I’m hoping for something different.Through the course of my school life, I’ve gradually devel oped a new understanding of the word “prioritization (优先次序)”. The first thing I wish to get in Senior 1 is the ability to manage my time better. I’ll surely become busier with the coming semester, and proper organization is important. From school clubs to academic competitions, everything should be set up in a way that doesn’t influence my health, which leads me to my second goal.My mother has always told me put my health first, so in the future, I hope to both physically and mentally healthy. A person can’t study without having the energy to do so. In order to stay energetic, they must put their health first, no matter how busy they are, or how much work they have to complete.And finally, I hope that I won’t be discouraged by my failure and never give up on my dreams. I hope that I’ll have the courage to try new activities and clubs. I believe my final goal can apply to every student around the world. We should all respect one another’s likes and dislikes, and focus on each other’s strengths, not our weakn esses. Everyone should try to take part in all of life’s opportunities.Albert Einstein once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” In my case, it’s the other way around. In order to keep moving, I must keep my balance—the balance between studies and activities, efficiency and procrastination (拖延but if I establish these goals, I believe I will make it through to the end.8、During this school year, what does the author hopes to do?A. Focus on improving her overall grades.B. Join as many school clubs as possible.C. Learn how to manage her time well.D. Spend more time on outdoor activities.9、According to the article, which of the following students should do?A. Always put their studies first.B. Not be afraid of failing.C. Only do what they're good at.D. Make different kinds of friends.10、What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean?A. A strong feeling of dislikeB. A strong feeling of loveC. A strong feeling of angerD. A strong feeling of joy11、What does the author intend to do?A. Show what she likes about high school life.B. Stress the importance of health to students.C Show how to balance our studies and activities.D. Share her goals for the coming high school year.Listen carefully. Don’t answer too quickly. At least, don’t say “yes” too soon. A friend might ask, “Want to take a hike?” You should say, “Where?” If he replies “The entire Appalachian Trail (阿巴拉契亚国家步道)”，take warning. Here’s why.The trail is one of the longest marked footpaths in the world. It starts at Springer Mountain, Georgia. It winds (蜿蜒) along the top of the mountains. It goes through 14 states. It ends at Mount Katahdin, Maine. As the crow(乌鸦)flies, this is about 2,200 miles. But when walked, the trail is 2,600 miles. If you walk nonstop, it takes about six months to walk through the trail.Most hikers begin from Springer Mountain. They start around April 1. This is why. The snow has probably melted (融化) in the south. But there may still be snow in the north. By the time they reach Maine, the snow will have been long gone. What’s the chance of making it nonstop? Here is the data. About 1,500 people try it each year. About 300 people make it. It is a great challenge.Careful planning is necessary. There are problems to solve. The biggest one is the weight on one’s back. Too many hikers start out with too much. Wise ones don’t carry food. They send packages to post offices along the way. There are no campfires allowed. Some shelters are near the path. But the trail is crowded. It is hard to find space. A perfect tent is necessary. And it rains a lot. Great rain gear (用具) is needed. It should be light.Benton MacKaye founded the trail. The first section of the trail was opened in 1923. It is cared for by volunteers in each state. Do you plan to go? Read lots of books by people who’ve done it.12、What is the example of the crow in Paragraph 2 used to show?A. The trail’s view.B. The trail’s height.C. The trail’s danger.D. The trail’s distance.13、What can we know about the Appalachian Trail?A. Only about one fifth of the hikers succeed in hiking every year.B. Most hikers spend a whole year hiking the trail.C. It goes through 14 mountains in all.D. It is about 2,200 miles long.14、What does the author advise hikers to do?A. Carry enough water and food.B. Wear heavy and warm clothing.C. Bring enough maps and equipment.D. Send packages along the way ahead of time.15、What is the best title for the text?A. Advice on hikingB. Dangers of hikingC. Go hiking on the Appalachian TrailD. Introduction of great mountains二、七选五16、How to Meet New PeopleEverybody knows that first impressions are important.

广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三上学期综合测试英语试题一
广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三上学期综合测试英语试题一学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Do you remember the first stop-motion movie, with a galloping(飞奔)horse? Eadweard Muybridge made it in 1872, and the funny thing is—the first stop-motion movie was made because of a bet. The question was: do all four of the horse’s hooves (蹄)leave the ground at the same time at any point of the gallop? And Leland Stanford, the founder of the Stanford University, hired Muybridge to help him settle the bet.Stanford claimed that, at some point of the gallop, all four of the horse’s hooves are in the air. Some of his colleagues took a common stand that one foot is always on the ground. It was a popularly debated question of the time, and it was Muybridge’s task to provide the answer using his photographic knowledge.Now, you can imagine that cameras in 1872 couldn’t really capture the things moving quickly. Movie cameras still didn’t exist, so it was out of the question. So, Muybridge had to get creative. He experimented with a set of 12 cameras. He used them to photograph a galloping horse in a series of shots. His initial efforts seemed to prove that Stanford was right, but he still didn’t have the process perfected.In 1878, Muybridge raised his creativity and skill on a new level. He set twelve wired triggers (触发器) connected to shutters (快门) for cameras. He placed them evenly along the race track to capture the galloping horse. As the horse galloped the race track, it set off the triggers and made every camera take a photo with less than half a second difference.The photos showed that Leland Stanford was right, and obviously, he won the bet. But this invention was a winning situation for all of us. Muybridge later invented a zoopraxiscope, which was a bit like the GIFs that people now post on social media and is considered an early device for displaying motion pictures. Thanks to photography and his invention, the cinema was born.1．Which of the following words best describes the invention of the first stop-motion movie? A．Difficult.B．Unexpected.C．Serious.D．Interesting.2．Why did Muybridge have to be creative?A．Because he was lacking in devices.B．Because he was afraid of failure.C．Because he was short of experience.D．Because he was interested in experiment.3．What can we know about Muybridge’s experiment?A．Twelve horses galloped at the same time.B．Muybridge invented GIF in the experiment.C．One camera was used to take photos in the first attempt.D．The triggers were set off by the horse in the second attempt.4．What is the best title for the article?A．A special history of cinema.B．A popular study about horses.C．A bet inspired the birth of cinema.D．A question led to great experiments.A character in one of Shakespeare’s plays once said, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” Any of these could apply to the modern-day sportsmen. Many still argue about the nature of talent. Some claim that people are born to be sportsmen, while others say it is only through devotion and hard work that they achieve their abilities. Arguably though, it is not until their talents are acknowledged (认可) by the public that they truly have greatness fallen upon them.With this acknowledgement of their “greatness” come all the trappings of modern-day celebrity: money, power, influence and responsibility. For better or for worse, like it or hate it, modern sportsmen are the role models of children everywhere. These children will grow up admiring their heroes, devoting their lives to copying their every move, and wanting above all to be like them. Due to this fascination, particularly with the massive influence of the media, it is more important than ever for these sportsmen to acknowledge their responsibility.In the past few months alone, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports stars of the present day. They are often mirroring the very worst aspects of society, a fact that the self-righteous (自以为是的) anger of the modern press has been quick to point out. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be perfect. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is markedly different from the sportsmen they grew up watching, but with the all-seeing eye of modern media it is a different world, and different standards must be expected.Of course, there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. There are no prison sentences, no fines, no community service—unless their behaviors are illegal. Unless they break the law, it is entirely up to them as to whether or not they think their behavior is appropriate. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and criticizing their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield when accused of the same crimes.It is without doubt that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who worship them. Modern day sportsmen are almost ideals of today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions over the world. Some may complain against it, denying their influence on these children’s lives. Others may be aware of it but not respect it, while many may both be aware of it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you.5．In Paragraph 1, the author tries to emphasize ______.A．sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by peopleB．sportsmen achieve greatness through their devotion and effortsC．different ways for sportsmen to achieve success and greatnessD．the core characteristic to become great sportsmen nowadays6．According to Paragraph 4, we can learn that ______.A．role models usually have positive influence on their fansB．sportsmen have the right to behave freely within the lawC．all the fans will follow their heroes’ actionsD．no duty is given to sportsmen7．The underlined phrase thrust upon in paragraph 1 most probably means ______.A．put off B．removed from C．related to D．forced on 8．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To advise the media to choose proper events to report.B．To inform the public that sportsmen are no role models.C．To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities.D．To argue that sportsmen should not be expected as heroes.Washing clothes by hand sounds like a simple task, but for many women around theworld it can do harm to their well-being and living. What would you do with your time if you could spend less time washing your clothes? “Paid work,” replied Aleas, a 49-year-old woman from a family of 10 with no access to an electric washing machine. She spent 8-12 hours every week washing everyone’s clothes by hand and described how the required body position of sitting on her feet caused her back pain.Washing Machine Project provides low-income communities with an accessible washing solution. Its task is to help women save the time to take charge of their lives. “A mother or a child doesn’t have to spend 20 hours a week washing clothes by hand,” said Nav Sawhney, an engineering student at University of Bath in the UK.Sawhney has created a movable washing machine that is operated by hand. He came up with the idea when Divya, a woman he met in southern India, explained the struggle of washing clothes without a machine. This burden is often shouldered by women and girls in many developing countries. Now, Sawhney’s washing machines, which he named Divya after the woman, could greatly reduce the time of washing clothes and allow women and young girls to receive education and have paid work.After research in Iraq, Lebanon, the Philippines and Jordan, as well as India, Sawhney came up with a machine that uses only 10 liters of water every time, compared with 30 by a typical electric machine, extremely important in places where water is short. It’s also made out of things that are easy to get and replace, which means it doesn’t need much money to make it. Sawhney and his volunteers won the support of University of Bath, and already received orders from Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda.9．What does washing clothes by hand mean to Aleas?A．A hard way of making a living.B．A simple method of killing time.C．The tiring housework she has to do.D．The family duty she volunteers to do.10．Why was the washing machine named after Divya?A．She inspired the invention.B．She helped with the design.C．She was the first to order it.D．She thought up the idea first. 11．What can we learn about the washing machine “Divya”?A．It is cheap and water-saving.B．It is mainly promoted in India.C．It is shared by a community.D．It is free to use.12．What is the main purpose of Sawhney’s washing machines?A．To develop the market in developing countries.B．To reduce women’s burden in low-income areas.C．To take the place of traditional washing machines.D．To wash clothes in an environmentally-friendly way.Quantum (量子) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I’ve also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us “cure cancer, and even take steps to tun climate change in the opposite direction.” This is the sort of hype (炒作) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can’t keep." What’s new,” Johnson wrote, “is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers.”As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work’s potential. If researchers can’t keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because “quantum” stands for something cool you shouldn’t be able to understand. And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016.Taylor shares Johnson’s concerns about hype. but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.The company, he says, is closer than any other firm “by a very large margin (幅度)”to building a “useful” quantum computer, one that “solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.” He adds, “People will naturally discount my opinions,but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.”Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition“ by a wide margin”, as Taylor claims? I don’t know. I’m certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.13．How does the author feels about Tobnson’s concerns?A．Approving.B．Unconcerned C．Doubtful.D．Excited. 14．What leads to Taylor’s optimism about quantum computing?A．His dominance in physics.B．The competition in the field.C．His confidence in PyQuantum.D．The investment of tech companies. 15．What does the underlined word “prone” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Open.B．Cool.C．Useful.D．Resistant. 16．Which would be the best tide for the passage?A．Is Johnson More Competent Than Taylor?B．Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology?C．Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being?D．Will Quantun Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype?二、七选五Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. ____17____ Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.____18____ Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious when they’re in poorly lit places — and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. ____19____ In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.____20____ People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to makedinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. ____21____ We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tail, skinny glass.A．Slow down while cooking.B．Don’t forget the clock or the radio.C．Open the curtains and turn up the lights.D．Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.E．Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.F．They depend on how much time you spend designing.G．You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.三、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

AHere are some of the prettiest small towns across Europe, from humble fishing towns to hilltop medieval power bases.Giethoorn, NetherlandsThey call it the Dutch answer to Venice, but Giethoorn lacks one crucial thing that the Italian city has in spades: over tourism. As in Venice, life revolves around the water, here-there are no cars in the center so the only way to get around is on foot or on the water.Roscoff, FrancePort towns can be rather dirty. Not lovely little Roscoff, though, in France’s Brittany region, which built its fortune on maritime trade. Today, it’s a center of thalassotherapy, using seawater totreat medical conditions, as well as a beautiful Breton town. Tiny fishing boats rest in the small har-bor-with a larger one, where ferries leave for Plymouth in the UK, further out.Dinkelsbühl, GermanyA cute historic center, wooden houses and large towers-Dinkelsbühl has it all. Wrapped by me-dieval walls with a vast Gothic church, St George’s Minster, it was the setting for Werner Herzog’s film “The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser. ”Clovelly, UKDonkeys used to be the only way to get up and down the steep streets of Clovelly, a pretty fishing village in Devon, southwest England.Today, they still haven’t managed to bring cars in- it sits at the bottom of a 400-foot cliff （悬崖）. Instead, goods are transported by, man-powered sledges （雪橇）－-and if tourists can’t face the walk back up to the car park, they can grab a ride in a Land Rover instead.1. Where should visitors go if they want to receive a health treatment?A. Giethoorn.B. Roscoff.C. Dinkelsbühl.D. Clovelly.2. What can visitors do at Clovelly?A Take a boat tour. B. Drive a car.C. Get around on foot.D. Take a man-powered sledge.3. What is the purpose of the text?A. To amuse readers.B. To tell the history.C. To educate tourists.D. To introduce sights.BImagine the most English-English person you can think of. Now I'm fairly certain that no matter what picture you just thought up, that person comes complete with a stiff upper lip and a cup of tea in their hand, because that's what the English do. They carry on and they drink tea. Tea is so utterly English, such a rooted part of the culture, that it's also rooted in how everyone else around the world perceives that culture.And while it's fairly common knowledge that Westerners have China to thank for the original cultivation of tea drinking, it's far less known that it was the Portuguese who inspired its popularity in England in particular, one Portuguese woman.Travel back in time to 1662, when Catherine of Braganza （daughter of Portugal's King John IV） won the hand of England's newly restored monarch, King Charles II, with the help of a very large dowry （嫁妆）that included money, spices, treasures and the highly profitable ports of Tangiers and Bombay. This made her one very important lady: the Queen of England, Scotland and Ireland.When she relocated up north to join King Charles, she is said to have packed loose-leaf tea as part of her personal belongings; it would also have likely been part of her dowry. A fun legend has it that the boxes were marked 1ransporte de Ervas Aromaticas （Transport of Aromatic Herbs） later shortened to T. E. A.That last bit probably isn't true （experts believe the word “tea" came from a Chinese charac-ter）, but what is for sure is that tea was already popular among the upper class of Portugal due to the country's direct trade line to China via Macau.4 What do people think of tea drinking in Britain?A. Typical.B. Fashionable.C. Incredible.D. Unusual.5. Who promoted the fashion of tea drinking in England?A. Common Westerners.B. The Chinese people.C. Portugal's King John IV.D. The Queen of King Charles II.6. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?Tea was part of the dowry of Catherine of Braganza.B The word 'tea' came from Portuguese marks on the boxes.C. Tea became popular in Portugal earlier than it did in England.D. The direct trade line between China and England developed because of tea.7. Which is the most suitable title for the text?A. The story behind British tea drinking.B. The legend of tea drinking in Portugal.C. The origin of Westerners' tea drinking.D. The history of tea trade between China and Britain.CWill skipping breakfast make me fat?The good news for those who don't have breakfast is that putting on weight isn't inevitable- -as long as you control those high-calorie desires and stay active.Research shows that although avoiding breakfast will make you hungrier and you might make up for that with a bigger lunch, this won't necessarily make you “fatter”--on average, those who skip breakfast don't eat more across the whole day than if they didn't skip it. Some researchers have found that you may even eat fewer calories overall, and end up using your body's fat reserves for energy, which can actually help you lose weight.However, weight isn't the only consideration: studies show that breakfast-skippers are likely to exercise less. This may be because they have lower energy levels-after eight hours or so without food, the body will have used up most of its stores of easy-to-access energy during sleep. Morning fasters are also more likely to have unhealthy, but appetite-suppressing habits, such as smoking or drinking a lot of coffee.If you want to ensure that you eat a regular, nutritious breakfast, try preparing it the night before don't leave it until the morning, when your brain struggles to make good decisions.If you do skip breakfast. . .■Don't make up for it with a huge lunch, otherwise you'll suffer overeating.■Make sure you eat something before you exercise, or you risk “hitting the wall”.■Don't make up for lack of energy with coffee-it can make you lose your appetite and make you anxious and nervous.8. What does the underlined word “inevitable” mean in Paragraph 2?A. Unbelievable.B. Unavoidable.C. Uncomfortable.D. Unbearable.9. Why do some breakfast-skippers lose weight?A. They do more exercise.B. They stay active all day.C. They reserve their body fat.D. They take in fewer calories.10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. Aims of the studies.B. Ways of losing weight.C. Effects of skipping breakfast.D. Suggestions for breakfast-skippers.11. What is the author's attitude towards skipping breakfast?A. Objective.B. Positive.C. Negative.D. Doubtful.DThe wires, screens and batteries that make up our devices-not to mention the plastic, metal and other materials that package them-are filling up landfills. Some e-waste is relatively large: old phones and air conditioners, for instance. Other e-waste is more hidden, such as electronic single-use medical diagnostic kits, environmental sensors, and smart labels that contain one-off batteries and other equip-ment.“It's these small batteries that are big problems, ” says public health scientist Dele Ogunseitan, who was not involved in developing the battery. "Nobody really pays attention to where they end up.Researchers at the Cellulose & Wood Materials Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology （Empa） are working to address this problem. Their new paper in Scientific Reports describes a paper battery developed from environmentally friendly mate-rials that could eventually present a sustainable alternative to the more harmful batteries common in low-power devices.The paper battery has the same key components as standard batteries but packages them differ-ently. Like a typical chemical battery, -it has-a positively charged side called a. cathode （正极）, a negatively charged side called an anode （负极）, and a conductive material called an electrolyte （电解质）between the two. A traditional battery's components are packaged in plastic and. metal; in the new battery, the anode and cathode are inks printed onto the front and back of a piece of paper.That paper is filled with salt, which dissolves （溶解）when the paper is dampened with water. The resulting saltwater solution acts as the electrolyte.When the paper is dry, the battery is shelf-stable. Add just a couple of drops of water, however, and the salt dissolves, allowing electrons to flow. Once the paper is dampened, the battery becomes active within 20 seconds. The new battery's operating performance declines as the paper dries. When the scientists rewet the paper during testing, the battery regained functionality and lasted an hour before beginning to dry out again.12. What can we infer about small disposal batteries according to Dele Ogunseitan?They are no big problems.B. They need to be addressed.C. They should be made larger.D. They are environmentally friendly.13. What's special about the new battery?A. It has a cathode and an anode.B. It has different key components.C. Its cathode and anode are printed on paper.D. Its components are packaged in plastic and metal.14. What is used to make the new battery start to operate?A. Salt.B. Metal.C. Ink.D. Water.15. In which section can we find the text?A. Advances.B. Reviews.C. Culture.D. Opinion.第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
