2018-2019学年浙江省杭州地区六校联考高一（上）期中英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共10小题，共20.0分）AThe other day I walked along with my friends towards the cafeteria and outside I could see a crowd made up mostly of girls．I couldn't make out what was happening．We came closer and were able to see that a lady was cutting a girl's hair．Beside there was a poster which encouraged people to donate about 10 inches of their hair in order to make wigs （假发）for patients who suffered from cancer and had lost all or most of their hair．I was moved by the courage of those girls who were excitedly waiting their turn to get their hair cut．My friends sensed this and asked me if I was considering donating my hair．I told them I would like to but I was a little anxious about how I would end up looking．But finally，I made up my mind．I asked one of my friends to braid （编）my hair and the rest of them started cheering me on so I would not back off．We went outside and I was now in line．It was finally my turn so I walked towards the lady；she sat me down on a chair and didn't even spend 30 seconds cutting my braid．More than half of my hair was put in a bag and I couldn't hide my joy．I just couldn't help but think about a person who would be happy with her new image．I knew I would never meet her，but I felt pleased with the act of kindness that I made that day．1.What were the girls waiting to do？______A. Cut a girl's hair．B. Drink special coffee．C. Buy wigs for some patients．D. Donate their hair to cancer patients．2.What made the author anxious at first？______A. The long line．B. Her friends' opinions．C. Her look with short hair．D. The courage of those girls．3.What can we learn from the last paragraph？______A. The author's kindness also made her day．B. People are usually happy with new images．C. People should try hard to help cancer patients．D. The author looked forward to meeting that patient．BAlmost from the time that the first Englishman set foot upon American soil，our language began to evolve．（进化）It is a continuous process throughout the centuries and has produced a language that differs from our ancestors and shows a sign of our own features and independence．By 1790，there were four million Americans，90% of whom were descendants （后代）of English colonists （殖民者）．This，of course，left no question that our official native language would be "English，" but it would not be the same as that spoken in Great Britain．By 1720，the English colonists began to notice that their language was quite different from that spoken in their Mother land．How did that come to be？There are many reasons，the most obvious being the distance from England．Over the years，many words were borrowed from the Native Americans，as well as other people from France，Germany，Spain，and other countries．Other words that became unused in England continued to be used in the colonies．In other cases，words simply had to be created in order to explain the unfamiliar landscape，weather，animals，plants，and living conditions that these early pioneers went through．To our newly independent Americans，they were proud of their "new" American language，wearing it，as yet，another symbol of independence．In 1789，Noah Webster wrote in his Dissertations on the English Language："The reasons for American English being different than British English are simple：As an independent nation，our honor requires us to have a system of our own，in language as well as government．"The evolution of the American language continued into the 20th century，as well as the American pride．4.What is the text mainly about？______A. How to learn American English．B. The frequent changes of English．C. The development of American English．D. The differences between American English and British English．5.Which of the following is NOT the reason that helps form American English？______A. America is far away from England．B. New words were created through practices．C. New words were borrowed from Native Americans．D. New Americans failed to use the old words from England．6.What can we infer from the passage？______A. Early Americans felt proud of their new language．B. Early Americans just felt curious about their new language．C. The new language helped Americans fight against enemies．D. The new language has settled its identity and stopped developing．CWhen you're sitting in class or behind your desk waiting for the clock to strike a time when you can go home，it is natural that the mind can wander （漫游）a bit．It is common for your mind to wander to a vacation and even travel the world．What if there is a way that you can travel the world without having to pay any money？A person that managed to make it around the world without spending much was Shantanu Starick．How did he trade off his service？Starick realized that as a photographer he had a service that people would usually be willing to pay money for，but he would instead offer his photography service to anyone who could provide him with food，shelter and transportation．Starick has been traveling for a surprising 30 months and has visited countries ranging from the United States to Ecuador．In English-speaking countries，trading off service and communicating aren't difficult for Starick．However，in more far areas where there isn't an English-speaking person in sight it can be quite difficult．More than anything locals appreciate （欣赏）the effort behind trying to speak their language，even if you don't exactly sound like a native speaker．You can do it too!Honestly，with a bit of confidence，drive and a skill you can trade，you'll be able to do exactly the same as Starick．Start thinking about what you can do to get around the world without paying money．With oursocial networks and the connectivity our world has，you can easily connect with and market yourself to people across the world without any effort．7.What is the author's purpose in writing the first paragraph？______A. To introduce the topic．A．To describe students in class．B. To give an example for the text．D．To show people's state of mind．8.What does the underlined part "trade off" in paragraph 2 refer to？______A. Join．B. Exchange．C. Stop．D. Improve．9.In locals' opinion，which of the following is the key for the traveler？______A. The skill to trade off．B. The confidence to succeed．C. The determination to travel．D. The effort to speak the local language．10.What do we know about Shantanu Starick？______A. He is a professional traveler．B. He is too poor to afford the travels．C. He has a skill to travel without paying money．D. He doesn't say other languages except English．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Fun classroom activities for high school students Classroom activities can help students relax after long-time lessons．They can educate as well as entertain the students at the same time．(1) They will help spread knowledge and awareness（意识）among them．DebateChildren are very enthusiastic（热情的）when it comes to debates．You can choose any topic，either a political one or a topic from the textbook．Divide the class into two groups，and make one group argue in favor of the topic and the other against it．(2) Debates will improve spur-of-the-moment（一时冲动的）thinking of the students．They will also improve their communication skills and help them think more logically．History activityThe only problem with history is remembering the dates．(3) All you have to do is ask the students to prepare themselves for any two battles or wars for this activity．Then make notes with different events that took place in any one war or battle．Mix them up and distribute（分发）them among the students．Then ask the students to open their notes and arrange themselves according to the dates of the events in the notes．(4)Quiz competitionChoose a topic and ask the students to prepare for it．Then divide the class into three teams and make a set of questions．(5) See which team scores higher．A．Choose some simple questions．B．Ask the teams these questions one by one．C．Make this task more fun through this activity．D．It can help a students learn the values himself．E．Record which side makes more good points during the argument．F．Given below are some fun classroom activities for high school students．G．The students would have to remember the dates in order to arrange themselves correctly．11.

During this time, mobile phones have been the solution for the boredom and restlessness caused from staying indoors. The most downloaded apps on play store 2020 are; TikTokTikTok was the most downloaded app. With over 111.9 million downloads, TikTok has seen a huge growth in 2020, twice more than what it got in 2019. 20% of its total downloads were from India and around 9. 3% of the total downloads were in the US. ZoomZoom was the second most installed app in the overall downloads category. With nearly 94. 6 million installs, Zoom is the most used app for online meetings and virtual classrooms. 17% of its downloads were in the US and India. Offices and educational institutes were shut down and to continue working and studying from home, people relied heavily on Zoom for video conferencing and calling.WhatsAppWhatsApp ranked third in overall downloads with more than 100 million downloads.

D．PaymentIt seems a red squirrel has been causing some trouble for Bill Fischer of Fargo, North Dakota.The salesman returned from a four-day trip in early September and opened the hood (引擎盖) of his truck, only to find lots of walnuts (核桃) stored inside.Fischer knew who did that. Since 2013, the red squirrel has been hiding walnuts in his truck every two years when his neighbor’s tree produces walnuts. Fischer said last year’s walnut collection was the most the squirrel had ever filled in the hood of his truck. Every walnut season, Fischer had to empty the hood of his truck and gave the walnuts away. “The squirrel will sit in the tree and watch me clean up the nuts almost like, ‘That’s mine, friend,’ as it’s watching me clean up his winter storage,” Fischer said.Fischer also said the squirrel overlooked other cars. “There are other cars very close to that tree, and it’s always my truck,” he said. “I’ve even parked purposely out on the street-as far away as I can from the walnut tree-but it still finds my truck and hides them there.”“It’s very possible that this funny squirrel considers Bill Fischer’s truck to be part of its home,” Aliperti said, who led a study that found that ground squirrels’ personalities are tied to risk-taking. Aliperti added that the hood of a truck is a perfect hiding place to a squirrel because it’s concealed and dry. Since the squirrel has taken over Fischer’s truck again and again, while Bill has thrown the walnuts away year by year, Aliperti laughed and said this one might be very forgetful.4．What trouble did the squirrel cause for Bill FischerA．Storing walnuts in his truck. B．Building a home in his truck. C．Opening walnuts in his truck. D．Breaking the hood of his truck. 5．How were the walnuts dealt with by FischerA．They were returned to the squirrel. B．They were hidden in another place.C．They were collected for the winter. D．They were cleaned up from the hood.6．According to Aliperti, why does the squirrel hide walnuts in Bill’s truckA．The truck is red, clean and empty. B．The truck is the closest to the tree.C．The truck is considered as its home. D．The truck is convenient for transporting walnuts.7．What does the underlined word “concealed” in the last paragraph meanA．Open. B．Quiet. C．Large. D．Secret.There’s nothing like having a best friend forever—that person who you can have fun with and talk to. July 30 is the International Day of Friendship. Maybe you can keep an eye out for a new friend to get to know. And while we’re tal king about friends, don't think humans are the only ones who know a thing or two about friendship. Check out these friendly animals in nature who helpeach other out.An elephant and an olive baboon (东非狒狒) can be friends It sounds strange, but it’s true. Y ou can find this pair of friends in the grasslands of Africa. This unusual pair helps each other out like any good friends would. The elephant uses its front teeth to make a waterhole in the sand, and it lets the olive baboon have a drink from this “well” when it gets thirsty. In return, the baboon tells the elephant when danger is near. It climbs up to the treetops and calls out so its friend knows that it’s time to move on.In the sea world, the goby fish and the shrimp (虾虎鱼和虾) are well-known for their friendship. While the shrimp provides a home for the goby fish, the goby fish provides a guidance service for the almost blind shrimp. You see, the goby has great eyesight (视力) and stays close to the shrimp. As the shrimp moves around, the shrimp is feeling the goby with its antenna (须) from time to time to make sure it's still there. If the goby senses danger, she will return to the home and the shrimp will follow.The langur monkey has a very good friendship with the chital deer (花鹿). While the langur monkey eats in a tree, it drops leaves to the ground. This is good for the deer because sometimes there’s not much food. The deer will follow the monkey and eat whatever food is dropped. And in return, when the monkey comes downfrom the tree, the deer will put its foot down heavily to tell the monkey if it senses danger.8．How can an elephant help an olive baboonA．By providing protection. B．By providing a home.C．By providing water. D．By providing information.9．What does a shrimp do when moving around in the seaA．It never swims far from its home. B．It goes home from time to time.C．It uses its antenna for directions. D．It stays close to the goby fish. 10．What do the olive baboon and the chital deer have in common A．They warn their friends of danger.B．They live together with their friends.C．They have a good sense of smell.D．They have good eyesight.11．What would be the best title for the textA．Best friends forever B．Friendships in the animal world C．Love me, love my dog D．The International Day of Friendship When you are lying in bed, every single noise-from the creak(嘎吱声) of the bed to a whistle in your partner’s nose-may keep you awake. You may find it hard to get a good night’s sleep. Actually, you may just need more noise. While it may sound strange, it is scientifically proven that certain types of noise can help you sleepwell. Specially white, pink and Brown noise can mask(掩饰) these sounds, creating a more harmonious background.White noise contains sounds of all frequencies(频率) that humans can hear. But it comes across as a high-pitched buzz(声调高的嗡嗡声). That’s because of the way your ears hear it. Basically, your brain strengthens sounds in higher-pitched frequencies. So while you are hearing sounds from a variety of frequencies, the highest frequencies tend to drown(淹没) the lower-pitched ones.The pink noise balanced out the noise so that sounds of all frequencies are heard equally. The higher the frequency, the more its volume is decreased. To your ears, the sound is deeper and softer than white noise. Think of rain falling on the sidewalk or a gentle wind in the trees.In a study at China’s Peking University, researchers found that when people hear either pink noise or no noise during the sleep, 75 % reported more restful sleep with the pink noise. Brain activity monitors proved that people had 23 % more restful brain activity at night with pink noise and 45 % more restful sleep during naps. Brown noise takes this concept to the next level, further weakening higher frequency noise to produce an even deeper and richer sound.The color of noise that will help you get more sleep is the one youlike the best. While pink and brown noises are deeper and more balanced than white noise, your personal sleep preferences will decide which one gives you the best sleep.12．According to the passage, we know that the white noise________A．removes low-frequency sounds.B．protects ears from high-pitched sounds.C．makes sounds of all frequencies heard equally. D．contains sounds of all frequencies of people can hear. 13．Why does the author mention the study at China’s Peking UniversityA．To show the need for silence during sleep.B．To prove pink noise’s positive influence on sleep.C．To stress the importance of restful sleep.D．To give the reason for more noise for sleep.14．What’s the main idea of this passageA．Some types of noise may help people sleep better. B．Our brain is always kept active.C．Many people have difficulty sleeping well. D．Noise has different colors and frequencies.15．In which section of newspaper may this passage appear A．Environment. B．Education. C．Science. D．Travel.二、七选五Writing tips for travel journalsThere are many benefits of keeping a journal when you’re traveling.

A police chase followed, resulting in two accidents before he crashed the car. He ran away but was finally caught and faced several charges.US judge Mindy Glazer was taking charge of the case. When Arthur Booth was taken into court, the judge looked at him for a moment or two and then asked, “Did you go to Nautilus Middle School? ” “Oh my goodness, ” replied Mr. Booth several times, at first with smiles and then breaking down in tears. He repeatedly cried “Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. ”In the heartbreaking scene, judge Glazer expressed her disappointment at the situation. “I always used to wonder what happened to you, sir, ” she told him. “I'm sorry to see you here. ” Mr Booth covered his head and cried as Glazer told the court, “This was the nicest kid in middle school. ” The judge said, “He was the best kid in middle school. I used to play football with him, all the kids, and look what has happened. ” Glazer said as Mr Booth continued to cry. “What's sad is how old we've become. Good luck to you sir, I hope you are able to come out of this and just lead a lawful life. ”Arthur Booth said, “Mindy has given me great encouragement. I will not give up my life. Now it is a new start for me.” Arthur Booth was a very good student, but in order to satisfy his gambling (赌博) addiction, he always engages himself in some stealing activities. As a result, he has to waste his good time in prison. Now his family hopes that the appearance of their old classmates and his own guilt can awaken his conscience.4．What was one reason for Arthur Booth’s arrest?A．He was addicted to gambling.B．He got involved in an alleged robbery.C．He was charged by his classmate.D．He ignored police order and crashed the car. 5．Why did Arthur Booth break down in tears?A．He was charged with theft.B．He was fully aware of his guilt.C．He recognized his old classmate.D．He thought of Nautilus Middle School. 6．Which of the following best describes Arthur Booth as a boy in middle school?A．Kind and well-behaved.B．Honest and generous.C．Intelligent and independent.D．Humorous and outgoing.7．What type of writing is this text?A．A diary.B．A play.C．A news story.D．A fairy tale.Art can be found almost everywhere on Earth. There are statues on mountaintops, sculptures under the sea, and art shows held in the middle of deserts. A group of over 30,000 artists has recently come together to place their works in a completely new location — the Moon. The project, named the Lunar Codex (月球密典), is dividing pieces they have gathered into five collections. The first one, the Orion (猎户座) Collection, was already sent into space to move around the Moon in 2022 on NASA's Orion spacecraft. The other four will be flown to different destinations on the Moon in future landing tasks.The Lunar Codex was founded by Canadian physicist, artist, and big businessman Samuel Peralta. Growing up with a love for both writing poetry and learning about space, Peralta dreamed of sending his poems to the Moon one day. Upon discovering that some lunar landing tasks were selling spare goods space on the ships, he booked places on five tasks. While the primary goals of these tasks are to transport lunar landers for scientific experiments, private organizations have been given the opportunity to buy any spare goods space for various purposes.The artwork included in the Lunar Codex stands for different kinds of artists and artistic forms. The collections at present have works from over 162 different countries. These include works from painters, photographers, writers, filmmakers, and more. The size of each piece of artwork will be miniaturized onto special plates that can be read with a microscope, a tool used in scientific study for making things look larger. Content such as music and movies will be saved on digital cards instead.While the idea of humanity colonizing (殖民于) the Moon was long just thought of as science fiction, countries worldwide are now seriously considering this possibility. Samuel Peralta hopes that the Lunar Codex can be the start of art and culture and later even humanity colonization on the Moon.8．How did Samuel Peralta realize his dream?A．By writing a book of poems about space.B．By founding a space transportation company.C．By travelling through NASA’s Orion spacecraft.D．By buying spare goods space on lunar landing tasks.9．What does the underlined word “miniaturized” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A．Reduced.B．Simplified.C．Copied.D．Enlarged. 10．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．Colonizing the moon is just a human imagination at present.B．The idea of colonizing the moon has been a popular scientific theory.C．The Moon is always considered an ideal location for human colonization.D．The Lunar Codex may be the beginning of humanity colonizing the moon.11．What is the best title of the text?A．The Task of NASA B．Art on the MoonC．An Art and Space Lover D．The Moon ColonizationKiller whales are mama’s boys. A son will follow his mother, taking bits of fish and other food, throughout his life, even as his sisters grow up and have babies of their own. This neediness comes at a significant cost to mom, who gives up having additional children to look after her boy, according to a new study.Michael Weiss has observed the mother-son bond (纽带) in killer whale groups off the Pacific coast of North America. These animals live for tens of years, yet even fully grown males “act like little kids around their mom, swimming right beside her like they’re still babies”.Weiss wanted to know whether these children came at a cost — particularly, whether they hurt a mother’s fertility (生育能力) . He and his team studied 40 years’ worth of data on three Pacific pods (小群动物) . Sure enough, the team found a “huge effect”.In a given year, mothers of sons were less than half as likely to have another baby as were childless females or mothers of daughters. Noticeably, both a 3-year-old son and an 18-year-old son lowered their mom’s chances of having more children, Weiss says.The researchers suggest mom’s favoritism toward her boys developed because of the particular social structure of these pods. When a daughter gives birth, her babies stay in the same group and therefore compete with the rest for food and attention. By contrast, a son doesn’t bring more mouths into the group — he mates with females in passing pods who then go on to raise children in their own social units.His kids are thus “someone else’s problem”, Weiss explains. So, it makes sense for mom to give more energy to him than to his sisters if she wants as many grandchildren as possible with the least competition. The team didn’t find out exactly how sons prevented their mothers from having more babies. Weiss says he hopes to do more research in different species of whales. But now, killer whales remain an extreme example of parental care across the animal kingdom. “In other animals,” he says, “at some point, you just stop depending on your mom as much.”12．What's the main topic of the article?A．The social structure of killer whale pods.B．The difference in parental care across different whales.C．The behavior of male killer whales towards their mothers.D．The impact of mother-son bond on female killer whales’ fertility.13．What can we learn about a mother killer whale’s chance of having more babies?A．A mother of a son won’t have another baby.B．It is obviously reduced when she has a son.C．A mother of daughters has the least chance.D．It changes with the social structure of the pod.14．Why do mother killer whales favor their boys?A．To gain support from boys.B．To compete with other pods.C．To reduce competition for resources.D．To develop the pod’s population.15．What does Weiss think of the mother-son bond in killer whale groups?A．It is not common in nature.B．It shows that killer whales have feelings.C．It doesn’t exist in other species of whales.D．It slows male killer whales’ development.CyclingMany people enjoy cycling as a hobby. Cycling is an activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and it is one of the most popular forms of exercise in the world.16 When you are cycling, every one of your muscles (肌肉) is doing something. This hobby can make your body do all the exercise to stay fit.TechniquesTechniques for cycling vary greatly depending on the type of cycling involved. Sprint (冲刺) cycling is a lot like sprint running and a lot of the muscles activities are involved. 17 They give a large amount of pressure on the bicycle pedals to get them going at a fast speed.For distance cycling, the most important is endurance (耐力) and many top class distance cyclists spend many hours doing endurance leg exercises.Equipment18 You don’t need expensive equipment to get started but, there is a minimum amount needed for your health: Helmet (头盔) — Don’t ever ride without one whether it is local law or not. Wearing a helmet can save your life, or at least make the difference between a bad headache and a severe head injury. Gloves — I have a pair of these, and you could consider them important. They absorb shock from the handles, but more importantly, if you crash, your hands are protected. Glasses — To some, these are a must. 19SafetyAlways be safe on the road. Do not be daring, do not insist on the right of way, do not break traffic, and always be as visible as possible. 20A．It is a sport that uses the whole body.B．These are a must if you ride after dark.C．For this, one needs to have strong leg muscles.D．It is important if you want to transport anything on your bike.E．They block bugs and other objects from hitting you in the eyes.F．Cycling, more than many other forms of sports, requires some necessary items.G．If you know the most common causes of accidents, you can be always careful.二、完形填空My dad is the best horseshoe pitcher (投手) in Webly County, and I aim to be the same.

Advance purchase is required because of the limited number of visitors allowed on the Island each day.Cape Cod National Seashore (Wellfleet, Massachusetts)Cape Cod National Seashore is a protected area of shoreline, natural habitats, and historically significant structures. It consists of 68 square miles of beaches, ponds, marshes, and woodlands extending for 40 miles. With its historic lighthouses, this park is a great place to swim in the Atlantic, explore nature trails and learn about the nation’s sailing past and present.Biscayne National Park (Miami, Florida)The park provides access for visitors to encounter and explore the scenery, wildlife, history and other amazing resources. This park covers 270 square miles, and 95% of it is underwater. Divers and snorkelers hit the ocean to explore shipwrecks and a bright coral reef, home to reef lobsters.Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument (Florissant, Colorado)Beneath a grassy mountain valley in central Colorado, lies one of the richest and most diverse fossil deposits in the world. This mountain valley protects 9 square miles of petrified (石化) redwoods and fossils of ancient insects and plants, which were preserved 35 million years ago when erupting volcanoes covered the valley in ash. Apart from a variety of outdoor activities, it offers visitors opportunities for hands-on experience to learn about fossils and science in the exhibit area.1．What are tourists required to do to go on Alcatraz Island?A．Protect nature reserves.

C．A news report. D．A science magazine.BAt Christmas last year, Cathy Wood’s family home in Manchester was disturbingly quiet. Her daughters, 19 and 21, were revising for exams. She says she and her husband “hardly saw anything of them…I was a bit fed up.” Bored and frustrated, she bought a 45kg bunch of secondhand clothes, without knowing what she was going to do with it.Wood, a former teacher of English, has always loved clothes. At university, Wood hung out with the fashion students and sewed her own new romantic outfits. Wood, now 62, enjoyed shopping for vintage (老款) clothing and had even discussed getting a shop with a friend, but the rents put them off. A week or so after the bunch arrived, shebooked a stall (货摊) at West Didsbury Makers Market.Standing at her first market stall was a wholly new experience though. “It was very different from teaching. Y ou need just the right amount of contact with people.” Wood sold four pieces at her first market, which paid for the stall and left a small surplus (盈余). Now, she sometimes returns home with 30 empty coat hangers. But it was the contact with customers and fellow traders that she found most rewarding. “It’s a lovely environment. Y ou chat and get to know each other. I really enjoyed it.”she says.Sometimes, in quiet moments on the stall, she takes out her mending and thinks of her mother and grandmother. “My grandmother taught art and crafts, and both she and my mother spent a lot of time with the sewing machine, teaching me to sew,” “What these clothes do is transport me back to different times when things were easier for me. They give me a pleasurable feeling. Nostalgia (怀旧) can be a good thing in that way.”After she stopped teaching, she “started to feel like a non person”, she says. The market stall “has given me status in my own mind to be part of the community, contributing something, to be somebody people talk to, somebody people smile at.”4. Why did Wood sell secondhand clothes?A．To keep her friend company.B．To pick up her sewing skills.C．To kill her boring retirement life.D．To pay her daughter’s schooling fees.5. What does Wood find most rewarding in her business?A．The profits earned from the business.B．The communication with other people.C．The competition with different traders.D．The environment of the market stall.6. What does the underlined word “They”in Para.5 refer to?A．Her grandmother and mother. B．Art and crafts.C．The secondhand clothes. D．The good old days.7. What does Wood say concerning her secondhand clothes business?A．It has made her a worthy person.B．It has improved her marketing skills.C．It has helped her to be a funny person.D．It has made her community much richer.CDuring the pandemic, millions of people replaced their large open-plan offices with their living rooms. Now, some companies say their employees need never come back in.Brynn Harrington, Vice President of Facebook, said, “Facebook believes that remote work is the future. We want to be able to give our employees choice to live and build lives in places that they love, and we want to increase our ability to hire from places around the world, not just places where we currently have offices.”Not everyone approves of working from home. Some people are eager to get back into the office. Facebook estimates that more than half of its staff could work remotely in the coming years, but it insists the move is not about saving costs. And it says it’s committed to keeping its offices open.Other tech giants such as Microsoft and Twitter have also indicated staff could stay remote — even after lockdowns ease. On Wall Street, they seem less enthusiastic about the idea. The boss of Goldman Sachs rejectedworking from home as a new normal — labelling it an “aberration” instead. There are also fears that it could create more inequality.For many companies, the answer probably lies somewhere in the middle — with workers dividing their time between office and home.Tushar Agarwal from Hubble said, “The office does have a future. We believe the future is hybrid (混合). We believe the future is flexible. The demand for flexible workspace has just gone through the roof. Just in the month of March, we’re back to about sixty to seventy percent of pre-Covid levels, and actually huge amounts of companies that are demanding flexible space used to be in traditional rent space, so now people want more and more flexibility than ever before.”One thing’s clear — the world of work will look very different to how it did before this crisis.8．Why do some companies prefer home-working?A．It can save cost.B．It creates more equality.C．It decreases interpersonal conflicts.D．It offers more possibilities for companies.9．What is the author’s attitude to the change of working place?A．Objective. B．V aried.C．Intolerant. D．Favorable.10．What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 4 mean?A．A normal thing. B．A flexible thing.C．An interesting thing. D．An untypical thing.11．Which can present Tushar Agarwal’s view of the future office?A．It will remain unchanged.B．It will mainly be remote work.C．It will mix different types of working places.D．It will have an open space in a large building.DAs artificial-intelligence products steadily improve at pretending to be human—an AI produced voice that books restaurant reservations by phone, for example, or a chat robot that answers consumers’ questions online—people will increasingly be put in the unsettling situation of not knowing whether they are talking to a machine. But the truth may make such products less effective: recent research finds a trade-off between transparency (透明度) and cooperation in human-computer interactions.The study used a simple game in which paired players make a series of decisions to cooperate with or betray their partner. In the long run, it pays for both to keep cooperating—but there is always the temptation to betray and earn extra points short term, at the partner’s expense. The researchers used an Al algorithm (算法) that, when posing as a person, implemented a strategy that was better than people are at getting human partners to cooperate. But previous work suggested people tend to disbelieve machines, so the scientists wondered what would happen if the robot revealed itself as such.The team hoped people playing with a known robot would recognize its ability to cooperate (without being a pushover) and would eventually get past their disbelief. “Sadly, we failed at this goal,” says Talal Rahwan, a computer scientist at New Y ork University in Abu Dhabi and a senior author on the paper, published last November in Nature Machine Intelligence. “No matter what the algorithm did, people just stuck to their prejudice.” A robot playing openlyas a robot was less likely to get cooperation than another human, even though its strategy was clearly more beneficial to both players. (In each mode, the robot played 50 rounds against at least 150 individuals.) In an additional experiment, players were told, “Data suggest that people are better off if they treat the robot as if it were a human.” It had no effect.Virginia Dignum, who leads the Social and Ethical Artificial Intelligence group at Umea University in Sweden and was not involved in the study, praises the researchers for exploring the transparency-efficacy trade-off, but she would like to see it tested beyond the paper’s particular setup.The authors say that in the public field, people should be asked for agreement to be deceived about a robot’s identity. It cannot be on an interaction-by interaction basis, or else the “deception” obviously will not work. But blanket permission for occasional deception, even if it can be obtained, still raises ethical quandaries (道德困境). Dignum says humans should have the option to know after they have interacted with a robot -but if she is calling customer service with a simple question, she adds, “I just want to get my answer.”12．The word “trade-off ”is closest in meaning to __________.A．balancing B．combining C．distinction D．agreement13．According to the passage, what attitude do people generally take towards robots?A．Highly positive. B．Casual. C．Strongly opposed. D．Distrustful.14．What can be inferred about the research findings from the passage?A．They fail to support the researchers’ assumption.B．They will draw people’s attention to robots’ problems.C．They are different from the previous research findings.D．They can explain why people treat a robot like a human.15．According to the passage, what is Virginia Dignum most likely to agree with?A．Talal Rahwan’s research findings can’t apply to the real-world situations.B．Blanket permission for interacting with a robot does more harm than good.C．People needn’t be told that they are interacting with a robot on all occasions.D．The relationship between transparency and efficacy has been fully explored.第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分。

Benny died of an accidentC. the murderer got away with the crimeD. Annka carried out the crime45. Which of the following about the passage is right?A. It gives opinions of certain booksB. It persuades people to visit an amusement pareC. It includes one part from each book.D. It is written by one of the four publishing house.BI can’t remember the first time one of my children told me, “I hate you.” I can, however, tell you that it still happens occasionally, but it doesn’t bother me. As their father, I often say things that are unpopular. If they hate me once in a while, I know I’m doing a good job.There are three other words that I won’t allow in my house, however. Last week, I was watching my older son play with a paper airplane. After he accidentally threw it into a wall and it came apart, his eyes welled up with tears.“I hate myself,” he said. It wasn’t the first time he’d said it, and I was concerned that he’d started to actually believe it.I knelt down next to him and made him look into my eyes. I told him that I never wanted to hear those words again, and that he needed to respect himself.The difference between your kid telling you they hate you and them saying they hate themselves is that, five minutes later, they’ve already forgotten they “hate you”. Self-hate is much more potentially poisonous and for young people, it can linger into the rest of their life.Kids who start to believe they hate themselves sometimes struggle to form new friendships. As teenagers, they avoid the chance to connect with a potential love interest, because they assume they’ll be rejected. And as adults, they might choose not to apply for the dream job because they assume it won’t work out.I know this is true, because I didn’t have a high opinion of myself as a child. I found myself struggling in many areas, and I’d hate to see my children suffer the same fate.Sometimes, words are just words. But some words can make the kind of impact I’d very much like to avoid for my children. I don’t fear strong language; I fear language that makes us weak.46. How did the author feel on hearing his kids saying “I hate you”?A. Depressed.B. Annoyed.C. Unconcerned.D. Excited.47. Why won’t the author allow the three words “I hate myself”?A. Because the impact of thinking in this way is negative.B. Because it hurts parents to hear their kids saying so.C. Because it doesn’t make any sense to blame oneself.D. Because the impoliteness of saying so is unbearable.48. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “linger” in paragraph 5?A. come to an endB. continue to existC. begin to changeD. become out of dateCOn March 17, people around the world celebrate the Irish holiday of Saint Patrick’s Day. It is a major holiday in Ireland, but the rest of the world has influenced its celebration as much as the Irish themselves.Most Americans think of Saint Patrick’s Day as a big party centered around drinking alcohol. But its beginnings in Ireland were religious, says Mike Cronin, a professor of Irish history with Boston College of Massachusetts.Ireland is a mostly Roman Catholic country. Saint Patrick lived in Ireland more than 2,000 years ago. He is widely considered to have established Christianity in the country. The Church honored him with a holy day in the 17th century. March 17 marks the date of his death. The average Irish person honored March 17 quietly. Attending church services was the main activity. In fact, most businesses that served alcohol would close in honor of the day.In the early 1900s, Ireland’s government made St. Patrick’s Day an official holiday. By the 1960s, towns across Ireland started celebrating the holiday with parades and music. In Ireland today, St. Patrick’s Day is a four-day public celebration that includes parades, music, food, and games.For Irish people living outside Ireland, Saint Patrick’s Day became a chance to celebrate their Irish identity and culture. Now, countries and cities around the world celebrate March 17 in creative ways. Many countries hold Saint Patrick’s Day parades. Famous monuments, including the Great Wall of China, the Niagara Falls, and the Gateway of India in Mumbai will all be colored by green light for the day.Cronin says that the worldwide popularity of Saint Patrick’s Day has helped the Irish government, which uses the holiday as a form of diplomacy. And for a small island of 4.5 to 5 million people it’s quite remarkable that they have that kind of soft power.49. How did average Irish people celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day in the 17th century?A. Drinking alcohol.B. Parading in the streets.C. Attending church services peacefully.D. Coloring well-known monuments green.50. What can we learn from the passage?A. Saint Patrick’s Day is the most significant day in the US.B. Saint Patrick’s Day plays a role in foreign affairs in Ireland today.C. Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated worldwide today as in the 17th century.D. On Saint Patrick’s Day, parades and parties are held throughout America.51. What is the passage mainly about?A. The origin of Saint Patrick’s Day.B. The celebration of Saint Patrick’s Day.C. The influence of Saint Patrick’s Day on the world.D. The role of Saint Patrick’s Day in Irish diplomacy.52. What is Cronin’s attitude towards the popularity of Saint Patrick’s Day?A. Unclear.B. Neutral.C. Negative.D. Positive.DUnderneath the Greenland ice sheet lies a body of water covering an area larger than West Virginia, and until just a few years ago, scientists had no idea that it existed.First discovered in 2011, scientists now believe it covers some 27, 000 square miles and contains more than 100 billion tons of liquid water.The melt-water reservoir (蓄水池) was discovered under the ice, in a south-eastern part of Greenland, by researchers from the University of Utah about two years ago. According to the BBC, at first the researchers expected to find waters stored in small spaces between the rocks. What they actually found was a massive reservoir of water trapped in the ice, kind of like the liquid in a snow-cone. Newser quotes lead study author Richard Forster saying, “we thought we had an understanding of how things work in Greenland, but here is this entire storage system of water we didn’t realize was there.”OK, so snow water under the ice in Greenland; why is this a big deal? Well, researchers say it could provide new clues to understanding Greenland’s ice melts and sea level rise in general. V oice of America quotes Forster saying, “of the present sea level rise, the Greenland ice sheet is the largest contributor, and it is melting at record levels, so understanding the aquifer’s (地下蓄水层) capacity to store water from year to year is important, because it fills a major gap in the overall connection of melt-water runoff and sea levels.” According to researchers, the water is 15 to 60 feet beneath the surface and likely stays fluid because it’s covered by snow. They’re unsure how old the reservoir is or whether it flows into the ocean.53. What is true about the water newly found in Greenland?A. It is probably in the form of liquid.B. It is widely stored between the rocks.C. It finally flows into the ocean.D. It came into being only a few years ago.54 . The discovery of water in Greenland is very important because ______.A. it confirms scientists’ previous guess about the storage of water in GreenlandB. it throws new light on the relation between Greenland’s melt water and sea level riseC. it provides information about the possible amount of water storage in GreenlandD. it solves the problem of the shortage of fresh water in the world for good55. What will be the best title of the passage?A. Ice Sheet in Greenland Melting at Alarming SpeedB. Greenland Ice Sheet Contributing to Rapid Sea Level RiseC. Billions of Tons of Water Found under Greenland Ice SheetD. Scientists Predicting Massive Underground Water in Greenland第四部分：单词拼写（10分）1.Any students caught c________ in the exam will be punished.2.The movie star likes wearing l________ trousers rather jeans.3.All of the homework of Maths,Biology,Physics and chemistry e________ took away my spare time.4.You may u________ your parents if you do not stop playing in the net bar.5.A recent s________ found/revealed/showed that 58% of people did not know where their heart is.6.The restaurant has a long menu of about 50 i________..7.The footballer Paul Gascoigne is to host a Channel 4 television s________ soccer skills8.America was first s________ by people who came across from Asia over 25000 years ago.9.The front passengers were lucky to s________ the accident.10.If you could get that report finished by Thursday I’d be very g________.第五部分：用所给词的正确形式完成短文，每词最多只能用一遍，有些词可能用不上。

His science project, called Speculor, won second place in the 32nd European Union Contest for Young Scientists.Hardit said he thought about people who struggle to get eye care after his friend couldn’t get it for a long time. “If this can happen in a richer and more developed area like Waterloo, what could the conditions be like in other poorer areas?”In Canada, most people have to pay for their own eye care, although some provinces cover some of the costs. That means either paying a monthly fee for an insurance (保险) plan or taking money out of your own bank account whenever you need something like an eye appointment and a pair of glasses. “Our primary healthcare system doesn’t incorporate eye care right now, so it becomes expensive,” said Hardit. “This is a problem that should be solved.”Hardit’s project is an imager named Speculor, which is an electronic device (设备) that eye experts use to record and examine images of eyes. Speculor uses artificial intelligence (AI) — through a smartphone — to determine which patients require further screening. It’s portable (便携的), which means a doctor can take the device to the patient so the patient doesn’t have to travel. It costs about $300, which is far less than other medical devices, which can cost up to $5,000.A lot of exploration went into developing the project, said Hardit, so he used the Latin word “speculor”, which is a verb that means to watch, examine and explore, when naming the device.He said Speculor summed up the point of his project, not to mention the entire spirit of science. Hardit won € 5,000 in prize money from the competition. He said he planned to save some of it for university. “I have become a lot more interested in physics, so I think that’s what my next goal is for the future,” Hardit said.4．Why did Hardit Singh have the idea of inventing such a device?A．His friend’s experience inspired him.B．He was influenced by an important contest.C．His struggle to get eye care caused him much trouble.D．He felt worried about children’s conditions in poor areas.5．What does the underlined word “incorporate” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Improve.B．Analyze.C．Research.D．Include.6．What can we learn about Hardit Singh from the text?A．He is rich but mean.B．He is creative and caring.C．He is strict and responsible.D．He is talented but unfortunate.7．What would be the best title for this text?A．A high school student invents an eye care deviceB．The device Speculor attracts more and more attentionC．The medical conditions in Canada have improved greatlyD．A new project provides surprising resultsThe Greek philosopher Heraclitus once said that you can’t step into the same river twice, for you aren’t the same person at each visit and the water is ever flowing. It is a powerful way to show the reality that everything is always changing. Yet so many people have unpleasant relationships with change. We resist it or attempt to control it, the result of which is almost always some combination of stress, anxiety, and burnout. It doesn’t have to be that way.No doubt, change can, and often does, hurt; but with the right mindset, it can also be a force for growth. A concept called allostasis can help. Developed in the late 1980s by neuroscientist Peter Sterling and biologist Joseph Eyer, allostasis is based on the idea that rather than being rigid, our healthy baseline is a moving target. Allostasis is defined as “stability through change”—the way to stay stable through the process of change is by changing.From neuroscience to pain science and psychology, allostasis has become the dominant model for understanding change in the scientific community. The brain is at its best when it is constantly rewiring itself and making new connections. Overcoming pain is not about resistance or trying to get back to where you were but about balancing acceptance with problem-solving and moving forward to normal.The time to start practicing is now. Over the past few years, the river of change has been flowing, and it shows no signs of letting up. Our ability to work with these changes is directly related to our life satisfaction. Given all this, simply creating a stable expectancy around change goes a long way. So does realizing that the allostasis mindset doesn’t ask us to do nothing. Rather, it asks us to partake in change by focusing on what we can control and trying to let go of what we can’t. When I catch myself resisting change, in my head I say the following: “This is what is happening right now. I’m doing the best that I can. What, if any, skillful actions can I take?” Do this repeatedly and finally you start to get better at it.To thrive in our lifetime — and not just survive —we need to transform our relationship with change, leaving behind rigidity and resistance. We are always shaping and being shaped by change, often at the very same time.8．What’s the common practice toward change?A．To welcome it.B．To reject it.C．To overlook it.D．To adapt to it.9．Which of the following can best interpret “allostasis”?A．One size fits all.B．Time works great changes.C．Respond to change by changing.D．It’s never too late to change.10．What does the underlined phrase “letting up” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Stopping.B．Dashing down.C．Going up.D．Widening.11．What might the author agree with?A．Repetition makes up for rigidity.B．It matters to focus on what we can’t.C．Changes promote life satisfaction.D．It makes sense to embrace changes.In the Pixar movie Up, a fun cartoon dog called Dug wears a magical collar which candetect and translate his barks and cries into fluent human speech. Humans have always been fascinated by the potential to communicate with the animals. This week, an article in the New York Times documented major efforts from a group of researchers using machine-learning algorithms (算法) to analyze the different calls of whales, chickens, bats, cats, and more.There are several ways to train AI systems now. Typically, Al systems learn through training with labeled data of human language which can be well supplied by the Internet. But analyzing animal language is different. Scientists have to instruct software programs on what to look for, and how to organize the data. This process requires matching gained vocal (发声的) recordings with the visual social behaviors of animals. A group studying Egyptian fruit bats, for example, also used video cameras to record the bats themselves to provide context for the calls.Many critics of this approach point out two weaknesses of current AI language models: being unable to truly understand the relationships between words and the objects in the real world, and scientists’ little understanding of animal societies. Al language models for humans rely on a computer mapping out the relationship between words and the contexts they could appear in. But these models have their own weak points, and can sometimes be a black box—researchers know what goes in and comes out, but don’t quite understand how the algorithm is arriving at the conclusion.Another factor that researchers should take into account is that animal communications might not work at all like human communications. There might be unique elements to animal language due to physiological and behavioral differences.Making a Translator for animals has been a popular project that’s been in the works for the last decade. Although some software has shown some success in identifying the basic vocabulary of certain animals, it’s still a far cry from understanding the complex animal languages. 12．Why do researchers use Al to analyze animals’ calls?A．To tell the differences among animals.B．To test Al’s ability of translating animal language.C．To understand animal language better.D．To explore the fun of communicating with animals.13．What makes analyzing animal language different?A．The lack of labeled data for training Al systems.B．The difficulty in relating human speech to real objects.C．The need for sound recordings to provide context.D．The matching of vocal recordings with their calls.14．What does the underlined term “black box” refer to in Paragraph 3?A．Al language models to study animal communication.B．The researchers’ study on animal societies.C．The relationship between words and context.D．The method of Al algorithms to draw conclusions.15．What is the text mainly about?A．Al systems for animal language translation.B．Limitations of current Al language models.C．Unique aspects of detecting animal language.D．Challenges in creating a translator for animals.LIKE-MINDED MATESIt’s fun to spend time with people who have similar interests to you.
