【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据O. Noir, Canada.中O. Noir in Canada is the first restaurant to introduce the concept of dining in the dark. The idea is that when our sense of sight is lost, others are heightened, so eating in the dark can only mean we’re more focused on the taste, smells and flavors than Instagram filters.可知，在加拿大，O. Noir餐厅是第一家引入“黑暗中用餐”概念的餐厅。这个想法是，当我们的视觉丧失时，其他感官就会增强，所以在黑暗中进食只能意味着我们更关注味道、气味和香料，而不是Instagram滤镜。由此可知，如果你想体验美食，你可以去O. Noir, Canada餐厅。故选B。
A.Washington didn't take command under it.
B.Washington took a picture of it.
C.It was planted in 1775.

2020-2021学年长沙市雅礼中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案
2020-2021学年长沙市雅礼中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（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ASome of the world’s most talented musicians have played concerts atLincolnCenter. On September 10, the center hosted a unique class of star musicians: kids and teens. The young players are part of the World Peace Orchestra, or WPO. The group held its first Music for Peace concert inNew York City, with 134 students from more than 60 countries taking part. Musicians were chosen from all over the world.The World Peace Orchestra began in 2013. The nonprofit group brings kids together using the common language of music. To be considered for the orchestra, students first had to be recommended by their teachers and then audition online for a group of judges. Once chosen, professional musicians and teachers then worked with the players to improve their skills.Some of the young musicians played classical instruments, such as violins and flutes. Others played instruments unique to their home country. For example, Amold Mugo, 16, fromKenya, played an instrument called the djembe. The drum is originally fromWest Africa. Mugo said he was shocked when he learned he was chosen for the orchestra. “I can’t express how I felt. I was rolling on the floor. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity,” he said.Adomas Hendrixson, 13, fromLithuania, played piano for the WPO. Before theNew York Cityperformance, Hendrixson talked about what he hoped to take away from the event. “Fun and joy-- people smiling and clapping,” he said.“This is one of the only times in your life this could happen and I'm very excited.”Mugo says his favorite part of the WPO is making new friends from around the world. “I hope when I go home, I just take a little bit of every friend that I made here-- Brazil, Portugal, Queens,” Mugo said, “I hope that I take part of their culture home with me so I understand them more.”1. Who is most likely to have played for the WPO according to this passage?A. Li Ming, 16, a student fromChina.B. Daniel, 44, a judge fromAmerica.C. Edward, 21, a clerk fromAustralia.D. Catherine, 32, a teacher fromEngland.2. We can learn from the last paragraph that Mugo ________.A.performed best for the WPO.B. has learned some foreign culture.C. was eager to be chosen for a second time.D. received a great award for his performance.3. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Kids were good at playing music.B. Mugo liked making foreign friends.C. Concerts were played atLincolncentre.D. Young musicians played for peace.BIn a recent survey of 2000 Americans, housecleaning was shown to have some mood-boosting effects — but that doesn't mean everybody is willing to do it.The majority of respondents (受访者) said cleaning gave them a sense of accomplishment (65%) and helped them clear their mind (63%). Half of these adults said they are most often motivated to clean when they're happy. In fact, 63% of those surveyed find the experience of cleaning to be relaxing - even more so than getting fresh air (61%).But that's not the only reason people clean. A big 70% admitted that tidying their home was a way of putting off having to do other things, with the average procrastinator (拖延者) using that trick four times a week. The survey showed that 86% of respondents do feel on top of their housework, but the last deep clean of their kitchen happened over a week and a half ago. That's no surprise because the kitchen is most terrible of all.Conducted by OnePoll on behalf of DishFish, the survey investigated people's attitudes toward dirty dishes and how they get through tricky task. More than two-thirds of people (69%) let their dishes pile up between washings with 20% saying “always” letting them be placed in the sink, which left them feeling stressed. More than any other room, the kitchen was rated as “very difficult” to cope with. And most people enjoy cleaning their toilet or taking out the garbage more than washing dishes by hand.How do they get through it? 66% listen to music while they clean. 72% have a best-loved song that they sounded while tidying up their home, with “Uptown Funk,”“Read All About It” and “Work” being the three favorite tunes on America's cleaning playlist.4. What is the result of the survey?A. Housecleaning may contribute to a good mood to some extent.B. Housecleaning may strengthen people's willingness to volunteer.C. Housecleaning may cause anxiety and concern for some people.D. Housecleaning may improve people's motivation to other housework.5. What is the top reason why people undertake housecleaning?A. They can entertain themselves.B. They can take in fresh air.C. They get a sense of achievement.D. They can delay other things.6. What are respondents' attitudes to dirty dishes?A. Many would rather wash dishes than throw out the rubbish.B. Half are under pressure with dirty dishes lying in the sink.C. A quarter will let dirty dishes pile up after their meals.D. Most prefer cleaning their toiletto washing dishes by hand.7. What column does the text belong to?A. Feature Story.B. Family Life.C. Scientific Hotspot.D. Finance Focus.CAbout a billion birds die from flying into buildings each year inNorth America. Suspicions havebeen that birds may regard the open areas behind glass as safe passageways. Or they may mistake the reflected trees for the real thing.Researchers would like to reduce collisions, which requires a solid understanding about what makes a bird more or less likely to die by crashing into a building in the first place.“There was ly little known at a broad scale. Previous studies were at one small study site.'' Jared Elmore, a graduate student in natural resource ecology and management atOklahomaStateUniversity. So he and his colleagues used a previously created data set of building collisions for birds at 40 sites throughoutMexico,Canadaand theU.S.The first finding was obvious: bigger buildings with more glass kill more birds. But the details were more remarkable. "We found that life history predicted collisions. Migrants(候鸟), insect-eaters and woodland-inhabiting species collided more than their counterparts(同类).”Most migratory species travel at night, when lights near buildings can distract or disorient(使迷失方向)them. And Elmore thinks that insect-eating birds might be attracted to buildings because their insect prey(猎物)is attracted to the lights. He suspects that woodland species get tooled by the reflections of trees and bushes in the windows. The results are in the journal Conservation Biology.By understanding which birds are more likely to collide with buildings, researchers can perhaps determine the best way to adapt buildings, or their lighting, to help prevent such accidents. And by knowing risks, along with migration timing and behavior, building managers can better predict when birds are at their greatest danger - and improve lighting strategics accordingly.Elmore's next project will use radar to help predict bird migrations. " I think that would maybe go a long way in terms of providing information to people, to the public, to building managers, on when they can get the most benefit in terms of lights-out policies."8. What is the possible reason for birds' crashing into buildings?A. They didn't see the buildings.B. They took reflections for reality.C. They assumed the windows to be open.D. They considered buildings as safe routes.9. What is Jared Elmore's study different from the previous ones?A. It created a new data set.B. It went beyond national borders.C. It covered a wider range of sites.D. I’ll studied some specific bird species.10. What was the most noticeable finding of Jared Elmore's study?A. Migratory species travel at night.B. Birds tend to be misled by glasses.C. Bigger buildings cause more collisions.D. Birds living habits give rise to collisions.11. Which of the following can help reduce bird collision?A. Adjust the lightening system.B. Attach radars to each building.C. Adopt strict lights-out policies.D. Ban using glasses on buildings.DOne of the greatest challenges in caring for such intelligent animals as chimpanzees(猩猩)is providing them with enriching experiences. Every day, the chimpanzees at Project Chimps receive morning and evening food-based enrichment devices, but caregivers are always looking for more ways to keep the chimps mentally engaged. With 79 chimpanzees, each with their distinctive personality, care staff often find that different chimps react differently to new enrichment.Last year, we began inviting musicians to perform for chimps to see what they may respond. A violin performance received quite the response. Additional musicians were lined up to visit but the coronavirus has stopped the activities, which we hope toresumein the near future.This past week, we brought an electric piano for the chimps to investigate. Some chimps, like twins Buttercup and Clarisse, were immediately interested and could not wait to tap out a few notes. Others, like Emma, were more interested in trying to take it apart.29- year-old Precious has very little tolerance for the piano. She sat off to the side for a few minutes, but eventually she decided that was enough. She called an end to the enrichment session by throwing a handful of waste at the piano. Receiving her message loud and clear, we removed the piano.We could never have guessed how 33-year-old Luke would react to it. As with many retired lab chimpanzees Luke has some anxiety issues. He seems particularly distrustful of anything new, including people, food, and enrichment. But when we presented the chimps with the piano, Luke was the first to investigate. We could not believe our eyes — this usually anxious chimpanzee bravely chose to explore something new!To us at Project Chimps, this is what it is all about: giving chimpanzees the freedom to choose. We are honored to be part of their journey.12. Why do chimpanzees respond differently to new enrichment?A. They are of different genders.B. They have natural curiosities.C They are as intelligent as humans. D. They have their unique characters.13. What does the underlined word “resume” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Continue.B. Suspend.C. Monitor.D. Regulate.14. Who showed the least interest in the piano?A. Buttercup and Clarisse.B. Emma.C. Precious.D. Luke.15. What is the text mainly about?A. How caregivers care for the retired chimpanzees.B. What care staff do to enrich chimpanzees' daily life.C. How chimpanzees are trained through various enrichment.D. What Project Chimps does to observe and study wild chimps.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。

It also uses the traditional method of central axis symmetry, with colonnade-style double wings and a tower ending, plus a large green glazed roof, large red pillars, white railings, double-eave bucket arches, and painted carved beams.1.How deep is the Tiankeng Ground Joint?A.666mB.3,000mC.45kmD.1050m2.Which of the following rocks can you see in Youyang Peach Garden?A.LimestoneB.StalactiteC.MarbleD.Quartzite3.Which attraction is closest to downtown Chongqing?A.Fengjie Tiankeng Ground JointB.Jinyun Mountain National Nature ReserveC.Chongqing People's SquareD.Youyang Peach GardenBMichele Gentile, an Italian bookseller, is offering free books to children in exchange for plastic bottles to recycle.Michele owns Ex Libris Cafe in Polla，a small town in southern Italy. He said he thought of the recycling program, because he wanted to inspire children in the small town to read and pay attention to the environment.''My goal is to spread the passion and love for books among those people in Italy who do not usually read while at the time helping the environment," Gentile explained.The idea for the initiative (倡议) came after Gentile collaborated with a nearby middle school on an aluminum recycling project. Working together, the schoolchildren and Gentile collected enough cans to purchase books for an entire classroom. His new program too off from there and has already spread into northern Italy: Gentile's hopes his work will continue to make headlines and become a worldwide initiative.The free books come from customers in Gentile's shop who have donated money to purchase a ''suspended" book. The idea comes from a World War II practice in which customers would buy two Coffees: one for themselves and another for the next person in line. Gentile has been using the extra books as part of his recycling initiative, While Gentile's program is a great way to recycle and get kids to read, it also brings awareness to the growing problem of plastic waste. Single-use plastics make up around 26 percent of all the plastics in the world, only 14 percent of which are recycled. Plastics that end up in landfills take around 500 years to decompose (分解),is a major concern for environmentalists.Cutting down on plastic waste is important if we want to better the environment for future generations, and recycling programs like Gentile's book giveaway are a great way to meet that goal.4. What is the purpose of Gentile's book giveaway?A. To sell more coffee and books.B. To attract more customers.C. To collect money for a new project.D. To inspire reading and recycling.5.

During the late 1960s, Americans witnessed the uninvited side effects of high productivity. Factories and power plants were sending out smoke and industrial waste while Americans were using petrol for their massive(大量的) cars, making air pollution almostsynonymous withthe nation’s development.What moved Senator Nelson to action was the 1969 massive oil spill inCalifornia, the largest in theUnited Statesat that time. The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a significant effect on marine life, killing about 3,500 sea birds, as well as marine animals such as dolphins, elephant seals and sea lions, fueling public anger. Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time, Nelson found it an appropriate time to direct the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection. He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment. Thus Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmentalawareness took centre stage.On 22ndApril 1970, millions of Americans took to the street and thousands of students marched to appeal for a healthy, sustainable environment. There was now a new synergy(协同作用) among different groups which hadpreviously been fighting their causes related to the environment. Their fight for environmental conservation became so overwhelming that affected businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.As it became more apparent that environmental issues were not just localized ones but a global concern, the year 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more around the world. Earth Day 1990 helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit inRio de Janeiro, bringing together many nations for a united effort towards protecting the environment.12. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “synonymous with” in paragraph 1?A. familiar withB. opposite toC. different fromD. equal to13. Why did Nelson found Earth Day?A. To support students’ antiwar movement.B. To draw people’s attention to the seriousness of the oil spill.C. To arouse American’s awareness of environmental conservation.D. To educate Americans to protect marine life threatened by oil spill events.14. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Businesses would like to follow environmental standards.B. Earth Day united people to fight for environmental protection.C. It was the side effects of high productivity that led Nelson to take action.D. The 1992 United Nations Earth Summit made Earth Day known to more countries.15. The passage mainly talks about_______.A. how Earth Day came into beingB. why Earth Day was so significantC. who the founder of Earth Day wasD. what Earth Day meantto the world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。

2020届雅礼中学高三月考试卷(九)英语第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共10小题，每小题2分，满分20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。
AWhat is Queen Elizabeth II like in person?Answer from@Jackie Pearcey:I once had lunch with the Queen(OK,along with about100other people in a large room).There’s a rule that people should stop eating when the Queen stops.She eats carefully,making sure everyone has a proper opportunity to eat.After lunch,she made a point to meet up with and thank all of the waiting staff and those who had cooked the lunch.Answer from@Janie Keddie:I live not far from Balmoral Castle,which is the Queen’s private mansion in the Scottish Highlands.What we find is that the Queen is a polite woman who is a good neighbor and treats people kindly.She uses local suppliers; she always supports the Braemar Highland Gathering and attends the local“Kirk”(Church of Scotland).That makes her part of the local community,which is quite protective of her and respects her privacy.However,my favourite tale is this.The Royals sometimes travel about the local area with minimal fuss(最小的麻烦).She stopped her car for a picnic on a track some distance from the road.There isn’t a lot of passing traffic,but on this occasion a family of walkers came upon but didn’t recognize her.On a“day off”,she looks much the same as the other local elderly ladies in her jacket.“Goodness!”said the mother,“You look just like that lady on the stamps.”“So I’ve been told;”said the Queen with a kindly smile as she continued to sip(小口抿)tea.Answer from@Gill Bullen:Some years ago,when Prince William was a very little boy,he had apparently been playing in Buckingham Palace,had fallen down and hurt himself,and was crying inconsolably(无法安慰地).He was immediately surrounded by concerned maids and other household staff trying to comfort him,but he didn’t want any of them, only Gary.Nobody was sure who Gary was—possibly one of the housemen?But then a voice was heard,saying,“Let me through,please.I’m Gary.”And they made way for the Queen, because“Granny”can be quite hard for a little boy to say!21.What do we know from Jackie Pearcey’s words?A.The Queen usually eats with the cook.B.No one else is allowed to eat while the Queen is eating.C.The Queen constantly has lunch with about100people.D.The Queen seems mindful of others and appreciative of those who work for her.22.According to Janie Keddie,Queen Elizabeth II________.A.lives in harmony with neighborsB.is always recognized when she goes outC.buys all her daily supplies by special suppliersD.seldom takes part in the local community’activities23.It can be inferred that the Queen________.A.once had a secret nickname GaryB.looked after Prince William dailyC.often played a role of the housemanD.had a good relationship with her little grandsonBCal Fire captain Shawn Raley barked evacuation(疏散)orders over the radio for the neighbourhood of Sunset Terrace.The sky was red and the wind screamed,shaking the leaves off the trees.New fires lit in bushes and on roofs.A24-year veteran of wildland fires,Raley had seen nearly everything,including swirling eddies(旋涡)of air called fire whirls.But he hadn’t seen anything like this.At around7:15p.m.,he drove toward areas in the wooded hills.He figured that residents would need help escaping.His headlights barely pierced the smoke,but he could see three bulldozers(推土机)inch past him on two-lane Buenaventura Boulevard.Don Andrews,who was unaware of the dangers he was about to face,drove ore; contractors Terry Cummings and Jimmie Jones drove the other two.They were under electrical line,which were swaying in the wind,and Raley shouted at the men to move away.In the driveway of a house,Raley spotted a Tesla with someone in the driver’s seat.Dr.Thiruvoipati Nanda Kumar,62,had raced eight kilometres home from Vibra Hospital of Northern California.His wife,Yasoda,58,and daughter,Sushma,29,hadn’t received an evacuation alert,and when the power cut out,their garage door wouldn’t open,locking their car inside.“Go back!”Raley shouted at Kumar,sounding his siren.“My wife and daughter are there.Can they come in?”Kumar said,pointing to Raley’s vehicle.He figured they’d be safest with the captain.“Come in my truck?”Raley asked.“Yes.”The women jumped into the back seat,coughing.Nearby,flames that climbed30metres burned their neighbours’homes.Soon theirs would fall,as well.“I’ll lead you out,”Raley yelled to Kumar.“Take your car.”Debris(碎片)attacked the truck,cracking Raley’s windshield and breaking the other windows as the wind blew the vehicle off the road.The captain threw himself across the passenger seat,protecting his face as the fire passed over them.Yasoda and Sushma screamed.“Are you okay?”Raley shouted,though lie knew the answer.He was embarrassed.He’d told this trapped family that he would get them out safely.Now they were,covered in glass and bleeding.Behind them,the trunk of Kumar’s Tesla was a flame.24.What can we learn about Raley?A.He has never seen fire whirls before.B.He is quite experienced in dealing with wildland fires.C.He was so angry that he shouted at Don to move away from the road.D.He decided to save the Kumar’s family out of the fire in his truck immediately he saw them.25.Which of the following statements is RIGHT?A.The smoke was so heavy that Raley could hardly see the road.B.There were three persons driving bulldozers quickly on the two-lane road.C.Dr.Kumar with his wife and daughter was trapped in the car when the power cut off.D.The doctor’s house was burnt down to the group when Raley arrived.26.Why was Raley embarrassed in the last paragraph?A.Because lie was injured by the fire.B.Because his truck was blown off the road.C.Because he felt he would fail to keep his word to save the family out.D.Because he couldn’t protect the Kumar’s Tesla well.27.Which is the best title of the article?A.A Big Wildland BlazeB.A Lucky Familye in My TruckD.I’ll Lead You OutCThough having seen such blunders many times before like“Redundancies(冗长)”,“Faulty capitalization(大写)”and“Lack of clarity(清晰)and specificity”in her17years of teaching English composition in Greenville’public schools,Yvonne Mason wasn’t reading a student paper this time.She was reading a letter she received from President Donald Trump.“I have never,ever,received a letter with this many silly mistakes,”Mason said.The former Mauldin High School teacher immediately did what she had done thousands of times before.She corrected the writing,and returned it—this one going back to the White Mouse.A photo of Mason’s corrections has been widely shared on her Facebook.“When you get letters from the highest level of government,you expect them to be at least mechanically correct,”Mason said.She particularly repeated capitalizing“nation”,“federal”,“president”and“state”,turning these common nouns into proper nouns. Mason identified11instances of faulty capitalization in Trump’s letter,finally resisting the idea of attaching a grade to the letter.“If it had been written in middle school,I’d give it a C or C-plus,”she said.“If it had been written in high school,I’d give it a D.”Mason’s comments drew attention to redundant(多余)expressions and overuse of the pronoun“I”in Trump’s letter.Mason recognized,of course,that the form letter she received from the President was very likely written by a staff member,not Trump himself,though the letter did,include Trump’s signature.It came in reply to a letter she’d written about the school shooting on Feb.14in Florida.Trump’s letter doesn’t respond specifically to Mason’s earlier letter to the President.In her letter,Mason asked Trump to meet individually with the family members of the victims of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.Trump’s return letter talks in general terms about school safety.“It didn’t address the letter I wrote,”Mason said.Mason,who taught English at Hughes Middle School and Mauldin High School for17years before retiring last year,is a devoted rhetorical(修辞)activist,writing letters,emails and faxes to state,local and federal officials often.28.The underlined word“blunders”can be replaced by________.A.conditionsmentspositionsD.mistakes29.What was Mason’s attitude towards the letter she received?A.Curious and content.B.Serious and dissatisfied.C.Impressed and respectful.D.Surprised and understanding.30.Mason mentioned the grades she would have given the letter to show that________.A.she had recognized the letter was written by a studentB.Trump’s staff members’grammar needed improvingC.middle school education should be paid more attentionD.it was really difficult to bear so many silly mistakes31.________gave Mason the intention to write to the President earlier.A.A photo of Mason’s corrections to the letterB.Trump’s meeting with the family members of the victimsC.The school shooting in FloridaD.Trump’s talking about school safetyDIf you live in a desert,maintaining a supply of fresh water is a challenge.One answer is desalination,but that needs a source from which to get the salt away—which in turn requires that your desert be near the sea.The other is related to moisture.Even in inland deserts,though,moisture is often present in the air as water vapour(水蒸气).The problem is how to get this vapour effectively and cheaply from the desert air.And that is what two groups of researchers have managed to do.The ease with which water can be won from air depends on that air’s relative humidity.This is a measure of its current vapour content as a percentage of its maximum possible vapour content at its current temperature.A relative humidity of100%means the air in question is holding as much water vapour as it possibly can.A good way to get air to give up some of its moisture is therefore to cool it to the point where its relative humidity is more than100%. Sometimes this happens naturally at night,causing mist and dew to form.These can be collected in special traps in areas where liquid water is otherwise rarer.But,if night cooling does not bring air all the way up to100%relative humidity,building water traps out of special materials might give nature a helping hand.Adsorption(吸附)is a process which pulls water molecules from air that has less than100%relative humidity by attaching them to the surface of a solid material.The molecules are held there by electrostatic(静电的) connections called Van der Waals forces that link them with the molecules of the related surface.To collect a lot of water this way therefore requires a material that has two features.One is a large surface area.The other is an appropriate Van der Waals response.Experimental traps that employ this principle have been made using substances called metal-organic frameworks.These are porous(多孔的)molecular networks through which air can circulate.Their porosity gives them a huge surface area.And by picking the right ingredients,such as zirconium, they can be given the necessary Van der Waals features.Zirconium is,however,costly.Moreover,once absorbed, the water must then be released.This means warming the absorptive material—the warmth being provided by the sun,once it has risen.Here,metal-organic frameworks present a problem.They tend to reflect sunlight rather than absorb it,and so don’t heat up well.To overcome this,engineers build a solid device made of copper into the system.This works,but adding such devices makes an already costly technology even dearer.32.What is the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph1?A.The irrigation of sea water.B.The import of sea water.C.The removal of salt in sea water.D.The purification of sea water.33.Which factor can mainly affect people to get water from the air easily?A.Air quality.B.Relative humidity.C.Current vapour content.D.Current temperature.34.What can we learn from the article?A.Water drops are the major existence of moisture in the air.B.Getting vapour in the air naturally usually happens when the relative humidity is below100%.C.The more holes a certain material has,the huger surface area it has.D.Zirconium is chosen because it’s cheap.35.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Maintaining-fresh water in the desert.B.Introducing a way to get water in the air of the desert.C.Promoting an experimental trap to get water in the air.D.Offering a way to increase adsorption in the air.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。
