2021年高三英语下学期限时训练试题
2021年高三英语下学期限时训练试题第一部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ASimply, language is what people and animals use to municate their thoughts, ideas and feelings. Of course, animals municate with each other differently from humans, and each type of animal municates differently. For example, a bee uses a dance to tell the rest of the bees in the hive (蜂窝) where there is food, while whales municate through the use of pleasant-sounding sounds. One could say then, that animals use different languages.Like animals, people also use different languages. Each culture has its own words and symbols that are used by people within that culture to municate with others in the same culture. For example, a person living in Japan will use the Japanese language to municate with other Japanese. Unlike animals though, some cultures use more than one language. People within these cultures are said to be either bilingual (双语的) or multilingual (多语的). One such place is Canada. It is very likely that a person living in Canada may speak both French and English. Likewise, a person living in Switzerland may speak Italian, German and French.Not only do people use different languages to municate, but languages also have different dialects. A dialect is a difference of a language whichuses words and grammar somewhat differently from the standard form of thesame language. For example, people who live in Manchester, England speak a dialect that is a little different from people who live in London, England; however, people in both cities speak English.There are also some people who don’t use a spoken language at all. These people use their hands to municate. This type of language is called sign language and is most monly used by people who are deaf.Now that we know how people municate, we are faced with a question. Are we part of a certain culture because of the language we speak, or do we speak a particular language because we are part of that culture? To put it more simply, is a Chinese person Chinese because he speaks Chinese, or does he speak Chinese because he was born in China? What part doeslanguage play in the definition (定义) of culture?1. The examples of bees and whales are used to show ______.A. animal languages are simple to learnB. people can understand animal languagesC. different animals use different languagesD. animals municate with each other2. The main idea of the second paragraph is that ______.A. people municate with those in the same cultureB. there can be different languages in the same cultureC. a culture can be expressed in several languagesD. the symbol of a culture is the language spoken by its people3. To judge whether a person speaks a dialect, you can depend on ______.A. what words and grammar he usesB. whether he uses sign languageC. where he livesD. who he municates with4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The culture of different countriesB. The language in different culturesC. The development of languageD. The meaning of the languageBThe Canada’s Most Interesting Towns Contest is started by Reader’s Digest Association (Canada) and is open to all Canadians.

Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals. Increasing self confidence is one of the most mon reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success. If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job. If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing. After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve. Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.8. What is the passage mainly about?A. The influence of confidence on one’s life.B. The importance of confidence to success.C. The difference of people’s confidence.D. The judgment on one’s confidence.9. Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those _____.A. who think their goals are hard to reachB. who expect to give guidance to othersC. who want to ask the boss for a raiseD. who dream to be recognized experts10. What does the underlined word indispensable in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. importantB. attractiveC. outgoingD. energetic11. What message does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A. To overlook one’s disadvantages.B. To make full use of one’s advantages.C. To have great confidence in one’s abilities.D. To make objective evaluations of one’s abilities.DMany parents try hard to protect their kids from TV and Internet advertising. But how can you protect a child from a large fast-food ad painted on her school locker(衣物柜)? Or a toy ad on the side of his school bus?As school budgets get smaller, a growing number of schools in the US are selling advertising space on lockers and buses and in gyms and cafeterias. It is an easy way for schools to make money. And ads may provide relief for parents exhausted by making cash donations to support schools.While parents can always turn off the television or the p uter, they can’t keep advertising out of schools. This isn’t the first time the issue has e up. For example, a news program for teens has been criticized for including ads in its 12-minute classroom broadcasts. And parents’ groups successfully fought a pla n by a pany called Bus Radio to put music and ads into school buses.But now things are different. Just last month, Los Angeles approved a plan to allow panies to advertise in the district’s schools. Officials say the plan could provide as much as $18 million for the schools.In St. Francis, Minn., school recently agreed to cover 10% to 15% of their lockers with ads. Edward Saxton, a teacher in the school, says, “So far, parents are accepting this as a way to bring in needed money. The money pays for programs like arts, sports, and music. Parents don’t like to see programs getting cut. Neither do I. Besides, schools are thinking about the effects on kids all the time.”However, Susan Linn, an educational expert, says, “Kids have already seen enough ads on TV, in magazines and on products they use daily. School is no place for advertisements at all.”Readers, what about you? Would you rather help run yet another school fundraiser, or expose your child to ads on lockers and buses? Is keeping ads out of schools worth raising taxes, or increasing your own cash support for schools through donations?12. Schools allow ads into schools to _____.A. reduce parents’ burdensB. solve their financial problemsC. offer kids a wide choice of goodsD. imp rove their students’ living conditions13. Edward Saxton holds the view that _______.A. schools choose ads carefullyB. ads in schools should not be too muchC. schools should be a place free from adsD. in-school ads do no harm to young kids14. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The bad effects of ads on kids.B. Efforts to stop in-school advertising.C. Whether ads should be allowed in schools.D. Whether parents should run fundraisers for schools.15. Who are the intended readers of the text?A. Parents.B. Teachers.C. Educators.D. Businessmen.第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分40分）完型填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

然顿市安民阳光实验学校高三第一次限时训练英语卷一．阅读理解（每小题3分，共36分）AJustin Bieber may have millions of fans worldwide, but Russia’s bears don’t appear to admire the pop singer’s music --- which proved fortunate for one lucky fisherman.Igor Vorozhbitsyn had his life saved by a Justin Bieber ringtone, when his mobile phone went off during a dangerous attack by a brown bear.The 42-year-old was attacked as he was walking to a favourite fishing spot in northern Russia’s Yakutia Republic and firmly believed that he was going to be killed.Wildlife experts believe the ringtone must have frightened the bear into stopping its attack.‘Sometimes a sharp shock can stop an angry bear in its attack and that ringtone would be a very unexpected sound for a bear,’ explained one.Mr Vorozhbitsyn suffered from cuts and severe wounds and was rescued when he was found by other fishermen after using the phone to call for help.Mr Vorozhbitsyn ---now recovering from his wounds---explained: ‘I had parked my car and was walking towards the spot I’d mar ked out when there was a tremendous impact on my back and the bear was on top of me.’‘I couldn’t believe my luck when the phone went off and it run away.’‘I know that sort of ringtone isn’t to everyone’s taste but my granddaughter loaded it onto my phone for a joke,’ he added.Adult brown bears can weigh as much as 600kg and have been known to kill wolves and even Siberian tigers.Finally, this is a proof that Justin Bieber is unbearable.1．Igor Vorozhbitsyn was attacked when____.A. he was fishing at his favourite fishing spot.B. he was walking towards his favourite fishing spot.C. he was phoning his granddaughter.D. he was driving to his favourite fishing spot.2．The bear stopped attacking because___.A. Justin Bieber came to rescue Igor Vorozhbitsyn.B. Justin Bieber sang to it.C. Justin Bieber’s ringtone was a sudden fright to it.D. Igor Vorozhbitsyn’s mobile phone was a sudden fright to it. 3．What is the writer’s attitude towards Justin Bieber?A. positiveB. negativeC. neutral (中立的)D. not mentioned4．What do you know from the last paragraph?A. Justin Bieber’s music is popular all over the world.B. Justin Bieber’s music is life-saving.C. Justin Bieber’s music is threatening.D. Justin Bieber’s music sometimes isn’t highly thought o f.BA very close friend phoned me this weekend and asked a specific question about earning a few extra dollars each month online. For the benefit of keeping her name and details secret, I will call her Annie in this article. You see Annie suffers from a severe form of inaction syndrome(综合症); she is full of great ideas that never materialize into cash and she is having a problem finding the link that will achieve this.Somebody once said that knowledge is power, yet we constantly find from readers of our website that they have knowledge to burn and still do not have power. Just look at the academics in universities all around the world; they have so much knowledge that they should control the wealth of the world. In truth they work for peanuts and very few of them ever achieve the power of independence. So knowledge certainly isn’t power. Therefore, we should change that “wise” statement to: “Power is the ability to use knowledge to your own benefit.”That paragraph was inserted because Annie is a typical academic—strong on talk and plans but a little weaker on actions. In the period of a twenty-minute conversation, she expounded（阐述）a whole list of plans and ideas to make the extra few hundred dollars each month she was seeking. Any one of her many ideas was a potential money maker, but she had taken action on none of them. At one time she said, “I’m lost as to what to do next.”That was my cue（提示）to get involved. “Take action,” I advised.All that is wrong is that Annie was inactive without knowing it. In five minutes we drew up a plan of action and agreed to talk again in a month to review progress. When we finished the conversation, she sounded much happier and more motivated than when we started. Annie just needs a little nudge into beneficial action.5．What’s the problem with Annie?A. She has too many great ideas.B. She never puts her ideas into practice.C. She suffers from a strange illness.D. She knows little about making money online.6．What is the most important according to the author?A. The abilit y to use one’s knowledge.B. The ability to acquire knowledge.C. A great deal of knowledge.D. A good understanding of oneself.7．What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Annie will succeed in later life.B. Annie is going towards success.C. Annie doesn’t realize her problems.D. Annie talks too much in daily life.8．The underlined word “nudge” in the last paragraph probably means________.A. pushB. adviceC. trainingD. PowerCWithout proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country, keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first- class roads, and other support facilities（配套设施）needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.9．Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection？A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.B. Building roads and hotels is essential.C. Support facilities are highly necessary.D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.10．The underlined word“ inhabitants” （in Paragraph 1 ）probably means_________.A. touristsB. passengersC. populationD. citizens11．Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT __________ .A. a bad effect on other industriesB. a change of tourists’ customsC. over-crowdedness of places of interestD. pressure on traffic12．It can be inferred from the text that _____________ .A. the author doesn’t like tourism developing so fastB. local people will benefit from tourist attractionC. other parts of a country’s economy won’t benefit from tourismmuchD. we can't build too many support facilities13．The author thinks it is good for local people to know that tourism will ________ .A. waste a lot of moneyB. weaken their economyC. help establish their customsD. help improve their life二．完型填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）Last year I went to America and stayed there with an American family for two months.As is said, “The best house is in America, the best wife is in Japan, and the best foo d is in China.” So I 14 pride and pleasure in “the best food” I 15 for my American family.

I take the problem more and more seriously for the following reason.First of all, as it is known to people, pets make so much noise that trouble residents a lot. What’s more, it is widely accepted that animal waste pollutes the environment, where makes people quite uncomfortable. Many owners like taking their pets to public place where they may frighten children or even bite people. The mostly important is that pets can spread some diseases and this has attracted much attention.Take all these factors into consideration, I sincerely hope that I can get help from you and expect the media do something for this.

高三英语晚自习限时训练
高三英语晚自习（限时训练）一、阅读理解AThe following 4 famous paintings, from Jan van Eyck’s portrait to Pablo Picasso’s masterpiece, have stood the test of time.The Arnolfini PortraitJan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait, an oil painting on wood produced in 1434, is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces. This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also an informative document on fifteenth-century society, through van Eyck’s heavy use of symbolism — while husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.The Starry NightVincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas, a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12-month stay at the mental hospital. When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gog h’s most famous works.The HarvestersThe Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It describes the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp, commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.GuernicaGuernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish paint er, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title “Guernica” refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting shows the horrors of war and as a result, has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war.1. What is special about The Starry Night?A．It was set in a conventional hospital.B．It wasn’t widely recognized before 1941.C．It was donated to a museum by a collector.D．It is a romantic work in the early 20th century.2. What can we infer from the name “Guernica”?A．It was a war symbol.B．It was named after a painter.C．It reflects different people’s lives.D．It reminds us of a kind of war atmosphere.3. What’s the purpose of writing this passage?A．To describe four scenes. B．To expand painting knowledge.C．To praise four well-known artists. D．To introduce four famous paintings.BIt scarcely seems surprising that learning to underline a modal verb, such as “can”, and “may”, does little to help students use them effectively in their own writing. The se words are anyway grasped by tiny children without the need to know what they are called. This may tempt the conclusion that the teaching of grammar should be shelved altogether. But there are reasons to reform it rather than throw it away.Understanding of language is part of a wider education in what makes human beings human. How concepts are turned into sounds, and how those sounds combine to form commands or questions, are issues that have occupied many language experts. What they reveal about the mind has exercised psychologists and cognitive scientists.There are practical reasons to ask children to work hard at grammar, too. One is that a knowledge of it will make learning a foreign language easier. Even if you did know by nature how to make clauses in your native languages as a child — just without instruction — getting to grips with them in German or Russian in later years is simpler if you know how to define and spot them. As it is, many English-speakers come to understand grammar by studying a foreign language, rather than the other way round.For grammarians keen on future jobs, the natural-language processing field is booming. After many years of poor results, technological wizards have developed programs for automated translation, speech recognition and other services that are actually usable, if far from perfect. These tools may rely more on knowledge of artificial intelligence than of the subjunctive, but linguistic expertise still matters, and may give beginners an edge over competitors whose best language is Python (一种编程语言).Grammar could still be taught better. One small study showed improvement in some students when concepts are linked concretely to writing tasks. A cook does not need to know chemistry to make a delicious soup. But the science of how words combine to make meaning is fascinating and fundamental.；4. Why do some people consider stopping teaching grammar?A．It’s unnecessary for kids to grasp modal verbs.B．Teachers’ teaching methods are far from satisfactory.C．Drawing lines under words fails to be effective in learning.D．Grammar Learning doesn’t bring obvious effect to writing.；5. When it comes to future jobs, grammarians believe .A．a good command of Python is enough for programmersB．the field of artificial technology still shows great promiseC．being expert in language means advantages in competitionD．computer geniuses will invent perfect tools to process language；6. What is the author’s attitude towards grammar teaching?A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Objective. D．Skeptical.；7. What’s the main idea of this passage?A．Grammar teaching shouldn’t be stopped but reformed.B．Scientific study of human beings benefits from grammar.C．Grammar helps children to learn foreign languages better.D．There’s much room for im provement in grammar research.CRecycling plastic has always been a stop-start effort, and the wide variety of plastics we produce, the pollution from waste, and other limitations make recycling aneconomic(经济) problem. It’s estimated(估计)only 9% of plastic ever created has been recycled. But with the help of a chemical process, Canadian Miranda Wang and her company BioCellection want to change that.Stability is one of plastic greatest qualities and downside. There's limited evidence that some plastics can biodegrade (生物降解)but largely photo-plastics degrade in the sun. It’s a long process, and the truth is that we can only estimate how long it takes. Wang is looking to break the inaction and BioCellection's task is to make most plastic waste recyclable.She outlines two current methods. One is to take plastics like water bottles, wash them, cut them, melt and reconstitute them. “That's a very limited process” she says, due to the requirement that plastics be “clean” . The other, which can handle dirtier p lastics and a level of pollution, is called hydrolysis(热解). Intense heat is applied to break down plastics so they can be reused as oils for energy, but “it’s not economical,’’ she says.BioCellection’s solution builds on research from over ten years ago, Wang explains, when a US study discovered pure polyethylene powder (聚乙烯粉)could be broken down by a catalyst (催化剂). Wang and her co-founder Jean hit upon a bacterium being able to eat plastic. In the years since, they engineered a comparable catalyst capabl e of doing the same job, only faster, which even works on plastics no one else can recycle at present. “We have now found a catalyst that is much cheaper than the one that was used before, Wang says.Currently focusing on plastic films like shopping hags, the three-hour process breaks clown plastic into chemicals that can act as the building blocks for more complex plastic products.“Right now we’re able to achieve about 70% transformation from plastic waste material to these chemicals,” she adds, saying they’re working to increase that figure.8. Why has so little plastic been recycled?A．Plastic is chemically stable. B．Recycling plastic led to pollution. C．We produced various plastics. D．Most photo-plastics degrade in the sun.9. What does Wang think of the two current methods?A．Highly effective and dynamic. B．Expensive and pollution-causing. C．Limited and energy-consuming. D．Widely used and recognized.10. What did BioCellection find effective to recycle plastics?A．Polyethylene powder. B．Chemical products.C．Plastic films. D．A catalyst.11. What is the text mainly about?A．Miranda Wang and her company. B．A new plastic recycling method. C．The greatest downside of plastic. D．Transformation of plastic waste.二、七选五阅读How strong are you?That is a difficult question to answer, whether you are a man or a woman. But, really, I want to ask ... how do you define (定义) your strength? How do you know your limits? When pushed, we often discover that we are much stronger than we think.12Strength is not always just about physical strength. Rather, it's about willpower, discipline and drive. 13 I know some people who are intelligent, but they get verylittle done in their jobs. And I know others who find work very difficult, but are able to move mountains by their hard work. They have inner strength.Limiting yourselfWhat I have observed is that most people limit themselves. They limit their output according to how limited they imagine their abilities and strengths to be. Sometimes these limits are based on past experiences. Sometimes they are based on what they think their abilities are. 14Pushing it ...Many people are working out, but nowhere near as much as they could.15 Pushing yourself is what it takes to increase your limits. In the gym, bodybuilders discovered this long ago.But, this is also true when it comes to inner strength.Want to test your limits? Push yourself. Test your limits to see if they are simply what you imagine them to be. Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved.You are stronger than you thinkMost people underestimate (低估) their strength. As you go through your day, test your limits. Push yourself to find your true limits and define your strength. 16 A．Physical abilityB．What is strength?C．The same applies to daily life.D．It's about the ability to get things done.E．Sometimes these limits are based on nothing.F．If you want to be stronger, you have to push yourself.G．When discovering how much you've really got, you may surprise even yourself.三、完型填空Years ago, a neighbour kid kicked a football and broke a small 17 of our house. We were a family living on a small 18 at the time, so I boarded it up, thinking I’d get to it someday.Over the years, I’d sometimes ask some advice from window companies. The plan was to upgrade to energy-efficient windows for the whole house, an 19 process—$ 15, 000. It was simply out of 20 and I turned it down again.21 , the thought of that window ate at me for years. Every time I went down there, it kept 22 me. I knew I needed to deal with it, but I had built up the 23 so much in my mind that I put it off again and again.Then my wife had a job 24 , and we needed to move. A 25 buyer couldn’t get a loan on the house if there was a 26 window. So I pulled off the boards to face this thing. It had already been for at least 5 years.I used some rust (锈) remover, sprayed all around the rusted frame, and gave it a27 pull. To my 28 , it easily moved. I pulled the window out and took it downtown. It was a 12 fix.I could have fixed the problem for 12 the 29 day when it happened. But I let it worry me for years. 30 , this isn’t just about my window. Many of us tend to livewith broken windows of one type or another for years. We suffer more in 31 than in reality. Step forward, and you’ll find a solution.17. A．roof B．window C．door D．curtain18.

2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练
2023届高三英语晚自习限时训练【3月30日晚，限时：不超过65-70分钟】一、阅读理解（一）Located in the tropical forests in Xishuangbanna, southwest China’s Yunnan province, the Asian Elephant Breeding and Rescue Center (AEBRC) is dedicated to giving careful and effective protection to wild elephants.Though the jungles provide rich sources of food and water for the elephants, they can also pose a threat to them if they become ill or injured, making it difficult for them to survive in the wild.In August 2015, a baby elephant that was less than one month old was abandoned by her herd at the d oorway of a farmer’s house in Simiao, Pu’er city. Vets from the AEBRC came and took the animal to their center for treatment. She was found to have intra-abdominal infections and heart failure. She was also at risk of blood poisoning.The baby elephant finally recovered after proper treatment by the keepers at the center. However, without the presence of her mother, she became malnourished (营养不良) due to a lack of breast milk. At that time, she weighed only 76 kilograms, much smaller than an average newborn elephant. The vets decided to feed her goat milk, and as she was born in the Chinese Year of the Goat, the elephant was named Yang Niu (“Yang” is Chinese for goat, and Niu means girl). The elephant is now about 6 years old, 1.8 meters tall and weighs 1.3 tonnes.Currently, there are 11 rescued Asian elephants living at the center and being cared for by 27 keepers, who spend more than 10 hours with them each day. Thanks to these efforts, the population of Asian wild elephants in the province has reached 300 from 150 over the past 30 years.The local government has designated (指派) a place as a source of food for the elephants so that they do less damage to villagers’ crops while looking for food. They’ve also monitored the elephants using technologies such as drones to keep track of their activities and prevent encounters between villagers and the elephants. The local government has also purchased commercial insurance for residents to compensate them if the elephants attack them.；1. What can be a threat to elephants’ survival according to the text?A．Lack of food sources. B．Illegal hunting.C．Physical problems. D．Destruction of forests.；2. What does the example of a baby elephant stress?A．The recovery of Yang Niu.B．The efforts made by keepers.C．The risks facing baby elephants.D．The importance of mother elephants.；3. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 5?A．The number of elephants endangered.B．The urgency of rescuing wild elephants.C．A steady growth of elephant population.D．A rising trend of animal overprotection.；4. Why has the government designated a place for elephants?A．To keep track of their activities.B．To prevent them from damaging crops.C．To save them the trouble of looking for food.D．To ensure the growth of the elephant population.（二）No one can resist the temptation (诱惑) of snacks. But at the same time, you may be underestimating how many calories a snack contains. What would happen if you had a bag of crisps (炸薯片) a day? Eating an extra packet of crisps a day could lead to a weight gain of 6. 35 kg after a year, The Times reported.People underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year. A survey of around 2 ,000 adults found that about three quarters underestimated the impact of what a small reduction could have. One in ten believed that cutting 200 calories a day would not affect weight. At the same time, many people didn’t seem to know exactly how many calories were in their snacks. When it came to snacks, people struggled, with 95 percent guessing that half a sharing bag of tortilla chips had 214 calories on average, almost half the true figure of 447.Can’t we resist buying snacks? The food environment is to blame. Even though we all know snacking is bad for our health, we can’t help but fill our shopping carts with snacks.Don’t always blame yourself for poor self- control, and supermarket shelves also have to carry this “pot” half.Hugo Harper, head of Nesta’s health team, said the pressure to resist high-calorie snacks should not be put on consumers and that our food environment needed. to be changed, He said,“Our environment has a real impact on what we eat, from advertisements and supermarket promotions to what ‘s available in our local corner shops.Hugo added,“If we had fewer cues to snacks, or were pushed to buy fewer high calorie snacks, we should be able to see real change.”New rules coming into force next month will restrict promotions on foods high in fat, sugar and salt in big shops.；5. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?A．List some reasons. B．Introduce the topic.C．Put up an argument. D．Raise a question.；6. What can we know from the survey?A．One in ten people cut 200 calories a day.B．Many people knew how many snacks they ate.C．No one knew the calories the snacks contained.D．Most people lacked the awareness of snacks’ impact.；7. What may cause people to buy more snacks according to the text?A．The food environment. B．Living conditions. C．Consumption ability. D．Supermarket management.；8. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A．A packet of crisps contains many caloriesB．People can resist the temptation of snacksC．The harm of snacks is beyond your imaginationD．2,000 adults got involved in a consumption survey二、七选五阅读Have you had a talk with someone, and think you are paying attention to him or her, only to realize shortly afterwards that you can’t remember what he said? Oh, perhaps you fail to focus while he is speaking and miss the message that he is trying to deliver. 9 : TVs, radios, traffic noises, telephones, laptops and so on which can make it difficult to listen with our full attention.But how can we listen more effectively? 10 . Professor Jon Kabat-Zinn said, “It’s time for mindful listening to come in. Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally.”11 ? Jon Kabat-Zinn describes three key elements of mindful listening that we can use to improve our listening skills.First of all, be present. When we listen mindfully, our focus should be on the person we are listening to without distractions. 12 . By doing so, we can understand a situation from someone else’s point of view. After all, we often see the world through our own experiences. Finally, listen to our own cues. Our cues are the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry, and they can hold back ideas and perspe ctives that we’re uncomfortable with. Mindful listening can help us to be more aware of our cues. 13 .In conclusion, the rule is straightforward: simply “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don’t l et other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.A．Then think in others’ shoesB．Researchers seem to have got itC．How can we deal with mindful listeningD．Modem life is actually full of distractionsE．But how can we apply mindful listening to our lifeF．Next, reflect on the experience you’ve gone throughG．Besides, it allows us to choose not to let them ruin communication三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

高三英语课堂限时训练（412）一、阅读理解(1)Located in the picturesque Goulburn Valley in country Victoria is the Kialla Central Primary School, attended by just 77 students, four teachers and one excellent principal (校长). After experiencing epidemic lockdown period (疫情封闭期) that forced them into remote learning for months, the boys and girls of Kialla have just one message — THANK YOU!“We never expected such a wonderful outpouring of thanks,” princ ipal Debbie Humphries tells Woman’s Day from the school’s playground where the students have gathered to praise the devoted the staff who supported them during these recent tough times.“Spending time with these amazing children, we found one unique qualit y really shines through their exceptional kindness. From Foundation One through to Year 6, all 77 come together as one, each adding their little bit of magic to the mix,” says Debbie, 52. “Our school motto, ‘A small school doing big school things!’, summarized what we aim to do every day—to go beyond the normal course of duty, to schedule their education according to their individual strengths, and weaknesses, and give them a chance to shine and be their best.”“I’ve been here at Kialla Central since its foundation,” Harry, 11, explains confidently, “Thanks to the best teachers in Australia, actually the universe, lockdown and remote learning was like being in the classroom—only more fun! Now I’m in Grade 6 and a school captain, and it’s my job to help teach the little ones that we must always look out for each other,” he says.Annika, who is honored to captain the school with her good mate Harry, is convinced Miss H and the Kialla staff are real-life angels, without the wings! “During lockdown, they changed everything to make learning more interesting. We made Mother’s Day cards as part of our art lesson, and they organized flowers from a local community garden to gift to our mums. If one of us was having a birthday, they all got in their cars and drove by ou r houses singing Happy Birthday!” she says.“We’re very proud to know our hard work has paid off — just look at those smiles!” says principal Debbie.；1. What led to children’s remote learning?A．The shortage of equipment. B．The epidemic lockdown.C．The government support. D．The special courses.；2. Why did the students say “thank you” to the school?A．Because of Mother’s Day cards.B．Because of the interesting staff.C．Because of its warm environment.D．Because of its devoted staff and personalized courses.；3. What can we learn about the school from the text?A．It aims to receive social attention.B．It is a remote village junior high school.C．It has made a big difference to students.D．It has lots of staff and advanced equipment.；4. What is the text?A．A book review. B．A science story.C．A news report. D．A scientific study.(2)Recently, researchers revealed details on several tiniest robots they have created. Small enough to sit on the side of a penny, the robots can be controlled by a laser(激光). The tiniest is shaped like a crab(螃蟹)and is just half a millimeter wide. The robots don’t have any power of their own. Instead, they can be controlled from a distance by using lasers. The researchers say the robot is designed a bit like a 3Dpop-up book. The basic shape for the crab is flat. The flat shape is then attached to a rubbery material that’s stretched out. When the rubbery material is allowed to relax, the robot pops up into a standing crab.This mixture of layers is the secret to the crab’s mov ement. The different layers give the material two positions that it can be in. When the hard glass layer is softened, the rubbery layer bends the material. But when the hard layer hardens again, it turns back to its old position. The scientists call this “shape-memory” . The trick to getting the hard glass layer to soften is to warm it up with a laser. Because the robots are so tiny, their parts heat up and cool down very quickly. By warming up different parts of the robots, scientists can make them move in different ways. The researchers say their robots can climb, walk, turn, and even jump.The robots aren’t super speedy. But given their tiny size, they’re also not too slow. It takes the crabs about 20 seconds to cover 1 centimeter.Right now the robots aren’t all that useful. All they can do is move, and they need to be in a place where lasers can shine on them to do that. But scientists say that one day tiny robots like these might be able to work in very small spaces. It’s possible that they could build very tiny machines, or perhaps even travel inside the human body to help deal with medical problems.；5. What do we know about the tiniest robots?A．They are produced by 3D printing.B．They have the size of a penny.C．They can be remotely controlled.D．They need no energy to move.；6. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．Provide information about rubbery materials.B．Analyze the working process of laser.C．Introduce the concept of shape-memory.D．Explain the way to make the robot move.；7. What should be improved about the tiniest robots?A．Their use. B．Their apps. C．Their power storage. D．Their moving directions.；8. What is the best title for the passage?A．Robots without energy consumptionB．World’s tiniest remote-control robotsC．Flexible tiniest robots in our bodyD．Crab-like robots for the future二、七选五阅读How to Get Along With FriendsFriendships can have a major impact on your health and happiness, but it’s not always easy to develop friendships. The following are some tips for you.Be positive9 . If you’re someone who likes to discuss hopeless-sounding situations, that’s OK, but remember to talk about more cheerful topics, too. Discussing books or sharing funny stories are better for your friendships. Of course, if something b ad happens, it’s OK to ask your friends for support. You’re not expected to be positive all the time.10Listening helps you learn about your friends and support them when they need it. Give your friends your full attention, and make mental notes about the important things in their lives—like the names of their loved ones, things they like and major things that have happened or are happening in their lives. 11 , don’t immediately share your experiences or advice. Instead, ask them, “How are you feeling about it?” or “What do you plan to do about that?”Make time for each otherSpending time with your friends has a huge impact, whether it’s for a few minutes or for several hours. 12 . If you can’t easily see your friends in person, try texting each other or having video calls. It certainly doesn’t replace an in-person hangout, but it’s a good way to keep in touch.Calmly discuss problems one-on-oneIf your friends are doing something that’s bothering you, it doesn’t help to give them the silent treatment or leave them out. Instead, talk to them one-on-one about what’s bothering you, and calmly share how you feel about it. For example, if your friends have given you an embarrassing (令人尴尬的) nickname, pull them aside and say, “I know you’r e trying to be funny, but when you call me that, I get really embarrassed. 13 .”A．Listen to themB．Please don’t call me thatC．Focusing on the upside makes you a better friendD．If you answer telephone calls only during certain hoursE．If your friend shares something that they’re struggling withF．Talking directly to your friend is the best way to solve an issueG．Schedule fun activities with your friends, or just find time to talk for a while三、完形填空Being orphaned (使成为孤儿) at birth isn’t an eas y way to start life.
