Our Amazing HandsThe hand is where the mind meets the world. We use our hands to build fires, to fly airplanes, and to write. The human brain, with its open-ended creativity, may be the thing that makes the human race unique. But without hands, all the ideas we think up would come to nothing.____36____ Study it carefully, you will find something interesting. The thumb (拇指) alone is controlled by nine separate muscles. The wrist is a group of bones and muscles connected with nerves (神经). The nerves send branches into each fingertip, which makes the fingers extremely flexible. ____37____Early hands seemed more unusual and interesting than any hand today. Some animals had seven fingers. Others had eight. But by the time vertebrates (脊椎动物) appeared 340 million years ago, the hand had developed to only five fingers. ____38____Nevertheless, there are still many different types of hands in living animals. After years of research, scientists are beginning to understand the molecular (分子的) changes in hands. ____39____ This makes the hands of different animals very similar. There is a network of many genes (基因) that builds a hand, and all hands are built on that network.The discovery has given scientists a deeper understanding of the development of hands. A bird’s wing and a lion’s paw (爪) may appear to have nothing in common. ____40____ It may just be a little more of one protein (蛋白) here, a little less of another there. In the past, scientists could recognize only the outward signs that hands had developed from a common ancestor. Today scientists are uncovering the inward signs as well.A. Hands can often be used for a number of different purposes.B. They also see that all hands start out in much the same way.C. It has kept that number for reasons scientists don’t yet know.D. No one would doubt that the five fingers are different with each other.E. But the difference between them may come down to a tiny change in form.F. The reason we can use our hands for so many things is their special structure.G. So you can see a skilled watchmaker use his hands to set springs in place under a microscope.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）36．F 37．G 38．C 39．B 40．E北京市海淀区2021届高三英语第一学期期中练习第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Is Managing Kids' Screen Time a Good Idea?Screen time is a big topic of conversation in today's households, particularly during the pandemic when online education hours have multiplied for many students.36They hope to spare their kids from the countless challenges that technology can bring.Yet the challenges of screen time overuse seldom come from kids' devices themselves, but rather from the tense relationships that technology can bring to families.37But technology has positive benefits too. Since every child and family is different,managing screen time calls for joint family decision-making.If parents believe they can manage a child's screen time through adolescence, they are not only fooling themselves but also inviting relationship trouble with their teens. It is a myth to think that parents can or should manage their kids' screen time through authoritarian restrictions,even during elementary school. 38 When children are left out of those decisions,they often become lesscommunicative with parents and siblings. This is the opposite of what parents want to achieve.39 From early ages, children are quite capable of understanding that a good life involves awareness and balance. Just as they learn right from wrong,and good from bad, they can also learn to use technology in healthy ways. Learning how to regulate oneself and develop healthy behaviors is one of the primary tasks of childhood and adolescence. What happens when an adult tries to regulate a child is that the child misses out on the opportunity to learn for themselves. Enforced restrictions can also make children feel helpless and less confident.To be clear, this article is not suggesting that families never use apps or trackers, or that there should be no restrictions on screen time.40Parents should give voice to children and involve them in the planning and decision-making process.A. Of course, there are websites that are unhealthy for kids to access.B. The alternative is to involve children in decisions that govern screen time.C. However,every family needs a family media plan between family members.D. The goal is to see, hear, feel,and understand how children view screen time.E. To manage children's screen time, parents have invested in apps and trackers.F. To get children involved, parents should trust and develop kids' self-awareness.G. What it is suggesting is that parents look at managing screen time in a different way.第二节36. E 37. A 38. B 39. F 40. G北京市密云区2021届高三上学期期中考试英语试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Will Traditional TV Ever Be Replaced by Streaming?For a long time, people had to listen to the radio to get news, drama, and music at home. This all changed with the development of the television in the early 20th century. 36 Since then, British TV viewers have enjoyed the launch of commercial TV, the addition of Channel 4, and then Channel 5, and finally the birth of paid services through satellite and cable.A Slow DeclineWhile the uptake of TV ownership exploded, the decline of television's dominance has been slow and has been going on for the past decade. 37 Streaming services have given us access to more content than was ever possible, including back catalogues of classic shows and blockbuster movies.Changing Viewing HabitsIn the UK, adults are spending more time watching content on YouTube and streaming services than ever before. In 2018, these figures were 30 minutes and 26 minutes per day respectively. 38Still the King39 For example, in 2018 UK adults continued to watch BBC One for an average of 41 minutes per day, more than any streaming service.Average viewing time for all traditional TV channels continues to decline though, despite much larger quantities of original content being produced by these organisations. 40 While the traditional TV networks have seen a decline, the television set itself doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon.A. This has been the trend for the last couple of decades.B. The original content has included massively popular shows.C. Suddenly, we were able to see what was going on, not just listen along.D. The traditional TV channels are taking away audiences from streaming services.E. Most major TV channels have their own catch up streaming service.Fe While demand for streaming services is up, TV continues to be the most watched overall. G. Today, we have the power to watch whatever, whenever, wherever we want.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）36—40 CGAFB山东省潍坊市2021届高三上学期期中考试英语试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5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。

Can You Trust Your Brain?Your brain lies to you a lot. ____36____Even when your brain is doing important and difficult stuff, you’re not aware of most of what’s going on.Your brain doesn’t intend to lie to you, of course. For the most part, it’s doing a great job, working hard t o help you survive and achieve your goals in a complicated world. Because you often have to react quickly to emergencies and opportunities, your brain usually tries to get a simple answer in a hurry rather than a prefect answer that takes time to work out. But as the world is not simple, this means that your brain has to take shortcuts and make a lot of assumptions. ____37____The problem start when the brain takes in information from the world through the senses. Even if you are sitting quietly in a room, your brain receives far more information than it can hold on to or than you need to decide how to act. You may be aware of the detailed pattern of colours in the rug, the photographs on the wall and the sounds of birds outside, but quickly forgets them. ____38____When people look at complicated pictures, they can identify differences if the images remain still. But if the image moves quickly, then they have a lot more trouble. ____39____ To test this, psychologists have tried more interesting ways of getting people to fail to notice things. In one of our favorites, a researcher approaches someone on the street and asks for directions. While the person is replying, workmen carry a large door between the two people, blocking their view of each other. Behind the cover of the door, the person who asked for directions is replaced by another researcher who carries on the conversation as if nothing had happened. Even when the second person looks very different from the first, the person giving the directions has only about a fifty per cent chance of noticing the change. ____40____A. Your brain’s lies are in your best interest—most of the time—but they also lead to predictable mistakes.B. This is because we imagine that we remember more details than we really can.C. The experiments illustrate that you are only aware of a little bit of what’s going on in the world.D. Your brain selectively processes details that are important for you to notice.E. Usually these things aren’t important so we don’t often notice how much information we lose.F. This happens because our visual memory isn’t very good.G. We’re sorry to have to tell you this but it’s true.七选五36. G 37. D 38. E 39. F 40. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。

Tolerance means tolerating or putting up with differences. 36 . This concept means different things to different people, but it is when something is disagreeable, that tolerance is expected, and in more politically correct cultures, demanded.There are many different ways to show tolerance. A person might fully disagree with others on any issue, while at the same time respecting those with different opinions and treating them with dignity. 37 .One problem is the fact that this respect is sometimes one-sided. 38 . But some supporters feel reasonable in labeling those who disagree with hateful terms, and vice versa. People on both sides of an issue must be tolerant of each other.39 . It does not mean that a person has to accept actions or ideas that are against his or her values or beliefs. It means that each person agrees to respect the others' right to his or her feelings on the matter. When both parties have expressed their opinions, and it is obvious that neither is likely to change position, agreeing to disagree is often the ideal outcome.Some degree of tolerance is necessary in any civilized society. 40 . It goes against human nature. Putting up with differences is a virtue that requires honest effort on the part of every person. It takes time to develop.A. Therefore, both parties should change their opinions if necessary.B. It is widely accepted that tolerance is a critical step towards a peaceful world.C. Disagreement alone does not equal intolerance.D. It refers to showing respect for the race, religion and opinions of other people.E. Those who disagree with a particular issue must respect the opinions of those who support it.F. However, it is not realistic to believe that all people can achieve it completely on every issue.G. When it comes to controversial issues. tolerance may also represent a "let's agree to disagree" attitude.DCEGF河南省郑州市2021届高三英语上学期1月第一次质量预测英语试题第二节（共5小题; 每小题2分，满分10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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Lets just be honest. 11 Given the limited space that comes with an economy class seat, you can expect to sit for hours with a stiff（僵硬的）neck and backs, which has a bad effect on your circulation. While most people know that standing up and walking around during your flight can encourage your blood flow, ifs not always possible or convenient to do so. J2Confused? Just hear us out. Tennis balls can put any fancy and expensive things to shame when it comes to killing pain, relieving （减轻）tightness, and improving circulation on long flights or road trips. This is why you should always pack a tennis ball for your trip.13 It is practically the on-the-go self-massage（自我按摩）you never knew you needed. Not only are tennis balls tiny enough to fit into a small bag, but also using one during a flight won't bother your neighbors either. And luckily, it's not one of the things most likely to get you flagged in the security line.There are certain areas you should target when performing a self-massage. They are your ankles, wrists, legs, and upper back and shoulders. Apply gentle pressure to each area with the ball as you roll, and use extra care with any spots of tension.Seems simple enough, right? J5 Always remember to fly with a tennis ball in your carry-on.A.Thafs where a tennis ball conies in.B.These days, airplanes can barely fit your own two legs.C.Some key body parts are especially in need of your attention..D.People are flying with just one piece of carrj f-on luggage nowadays.E.But it could make your life so, so much easier and keep you healthier in the air.F.Just make sure youYe not making these airport mistakes before your next flight.G.Rolling a tennis ball along your body loosens up stiff parts and increases blood flow.【答案】U.B 12.A 13.

It happens all the time-you are standing on a bus, listening to music, when you feel someone's breath on the back of your neck. You think to yourself: Is this person getting too close to me? The answer is yes. Everyone has a sense of personal space. 36According to a new study, the size of the space is different for different people, 37 reported Los Angeles Times. In the study, researchers from University College of London asked volunteers to hold their hands at different distances from their face. They then gave them an electric shock on their hand while measuring how often the volunteers blinked. The more they blinked(眨眼), 38The results among volunteers were a little different, but the average personal space was 20 to 40 centimeters. Researchers also found that the more anxious a person was, the larger their personal space was because they were more sensitive.Besides psychological factors, 39 . For example, a person who grew up in a country that hugs a lot has less of a problem with strangers getting too close than a person who grew up in one with more distance between people.40 "If you are chatting to someone in your living room, you won't have a large safety margin(界限)at all," explained researcher Gian Domenico Iannetti. "But if you are walking through a dangerous area, then that will be much bigger." Sadly, sometimes people just don't understand the idea of personal space and keep getting into yours. Whenever that happens, rather than trying to step backwards, researchers suggest that you "create a new space" by turning to wave at someone passing by or to get something out of your bag.A. But how big is this space?B. it shows that they are worried about their hands.C. the more of a threat they felt the shock was to their face.E. culture is also thought to be able to change your personal space.D. but generally it is between 20 to 40 centimeters in front of the face.F. People's senses of personal space also depend on the environments they are in.G. It is clear that people's senses of personal space is considered to be very important.河北省保定市2021届高三上学期（10月）摸底考试英语试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

Capturing a dramatic sky with a camera is more difficult than it seems. With the sky lighter than the land, the camera will typically over-expose the sky, turning a brilliant blue into an unexciting gray. ____16____◆Time is right.Landscape photography may not require the timing that’s necessary for capturing a baby’s smile. ____17____The sky that’s gray one day, could be bright blue the next. When planning out a landscape photo, consider how the timing will impact the sky.◆____18____Photography rules are sometimes meant to be broken.

This is especially true when shooting towards the beginning or end of the day.◆Compose for the sky.___19___ If you are shooting a photo with an average looking sky, try placing the horizon on the upper third of the image, so more of the land is included in the photo.

Here are tips to keep in mind.___12___ For example, if all your friends are writing application essays about covid-19, that may be a good reason why you should avoid it.Unless, of course, you’ve had a vivid, life-changing experience that you are burning to share.Admissions counselors say that the best essays help them learn something about the candidate that they would never know from reading the rest of the application.Keep your individuality in the spotlight.___13___ What sets you apart from others?

They can spot something unreal.B. This rule works in all the aspects of your life.C. Writing about oneself can be highly stressful.D. Keep a confident tone even if you’re not feeling that way.E.
