Details of some apps to help to improve learning skills．BFrom childhood，Moira loved to write．Throughout school she enjoyed writing，but pursuing it professionally was never a possibility．Her father was a doctor，her mother a nurse．"Medicine was a fairly safe choice，" Moira says，"and writing was a career where it wasn't a certainty that you'd have high income．"She became a doctor but still wanted to write something．However，being a doctor was so demanding that she didn't take up writing until her thirties．She produced a novel-a fictionalized version of her travel in China after university．She got excellent reviews．Moira sent it off to as many agents as she could find，and found one whowanted to represent her．Suddenly，it seemed she was on her way as an author．"I had one lengthy phone call with the agent where we went through all possible areas that she thought needed polishing．I worked on those and sent it back to her but didn't hear anything．" It wasn't long before Moira found another agent who was interested if she was willing to rewrite it from the first person to the third person．She did the hard work and sent it off again．"I got back a really brief letter：‘ Thank you，I'm no longer interested．' It was really disappointing．"A decade went by，and Moira found herself eager to write again，this time purely for her own enjoyment．She set herself the challenge of creating a thriller and chose Western Australia as her setting．As she was writing just for herself，something surprising began to happen．"The characters took on a life of their own；they started doing things I hadn't thought about．It just flew．" One day，an agent called from Australia．Three weeks later，Moira had a publication deal．Her novel，Cicada，was published in March．"Even if it hadn't been published I still gained so much from the process，" says Moira．21.What do we know about Moira______A. She was a writer．B. She was a doctor．C. She was an agent．D. She was a nurse．22.What does the author imply about her first novel？______A. It was produced after she graduated from university．B.

It was made into a thriller with Western Australia as the setting．23.What made Moira write again ten years later？______A. The money．B. The setting．C. The challenge．D. The pleasure．24.What does the underlined word "flew" in paragraph 5 refer to______A. Succeeded．B. Survived．C. Broke．D. Failed．25.What would be the best title of the passage______A. An Adventure in ChinaB. How to Be a WriterC. Moira's First NovelD. A Passion for WritingCBritish writer John Donne once said："No man is an island；every book is a world．" As an enthusiastic reader，I can't agree with the latter part of the sentence more．Every summer，I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed．Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd．I am no friend to chaos，either．I read George Orwell's 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors，no telephones or televisions in the rooms．1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection．Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel，however，was less fruitful：I made it through one and a quarter volumes，but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't keep them open．But this summer I find myself at a loss．I'm not quite interested in J．D．Salinger，say，or Frankenstein．There's always War and Peace which I've covered some distance several times，only to get bogged down in the "War" part，set it aside for a while，and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again，having forgotten everyone's name and social rank．How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite-once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland，which feels almost like cheating，too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature．And then there's John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath．This title does not amaze but confuse．We're never short of sour grapes，but we've never heard of angry grapes．Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer．These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once．26.What can we infer from Paragraph 2？______A. The author has a cottage in New England．B. 1984is a book that needs careful thought．C. Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful．D. Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied motel．27.What does the underlined phrase "get bogged down" in paragraph 3 refer to？______A. Get confused．B. Be carried away．C. Be interpreted．D. Make no progress．28.Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating？______A. He finishes them quickly．B. He should read something serious．C. He barely understands them．D. He gets amazed by their titles．29.What can we know about the author from this passage？______A. Thomas Hardy is his friend．B. He shows talent for literature．C. He is quite forgetful．D. He is a literary-minded man．30.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage？______A. To share his reading experience．B. To encourage readers to read books．C. To introduce good books to readers．D. To condemn the chaotic world we live in．DIt is one of the oldest magic tricks in the book-a magician locks a woman in a box，with her head and feet sticking out from either end，and saws （锯）it in half．But when she finally jumps out of the box，the woman is unharmed．This trick was introduced nearly a century ago．It has been around for some time，but it never goes wrong．Why is it so successful？The answer is simple：the human mind is easily fooled．Our brain processes the world around us based on information that sensory organs，including the eyes，pick up．For instance，when we see a cow or a horse standing behind a tree，we automatically "fill in" the part of the animal's body that is hidden from our sight．"So the brain is taking this kind of very sparse （匮乏的）information about the world and it's generating this rich world by filling in information，" Stephen Macknik，a scientist at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Arizona，US，told Science magazine．But since our brains are filling in the gaps，sometimes they get it wrong．They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not．This tendency explains magicians' success in fooling people with well-known coin tricks．For example，when you see a magician throw a coin up and down in one hand and then fake a coin thrown to the other hand，you would naturally believe that the coin is in the other hand．Apart from the information gaps，magicians also use the "blind spots" theory when doing their shows．The most well-known experiment demonstrating this theory is called the " invisible gorilla （大猩猩）"，in which volunteers watch a video of two basketball teams．They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball．In the meantime，a person dressed as a gorilla walks onto the court．But shockingly，half of the viewers don't notice the gorilla，even when they appear to be looking directly at it．Magicians employ this tactic （招数），what they call "misdirection"，in almost every one of their acts．They direct our attention somewhere else using comedy and music，which can make us miss stuff during the performance．31.The magic trick is mentioned in the first paragraph to ______ ．A. introduce the steps of the magic trickB. prove magic tricks seldom go wrongC. reveal how magic tricks are designedD. get us to wonder how magicians trick the mind32.We can conclude from the passage that the human mind is easily fooled because our brain ______ ．A. may have difficulty remembering what we just sawB. fills in information about the magic worldC. is influenced by our previous experiencesD. processes far more information than our sensory organs pick up33.What does the underlined word "invisible" in paragraph 7 refer to______A. Unnoticed．B. Unimportant．C. Unpleasant．D. Unprepared．34.During the "invisible gorilla" experiment，people watching the video ignore the "gorilla" because ______ ．A. they don't look directly at itB. they are not interested in itC. they are too focused on countingD. they consider it to be a distraction35.Why do magicians usually use comedy and music when they play magic tricks______A. To get viewers to stay focused on the show．B. To make the show more fun and exciting．C. To draw viewers' attention away from a secret action．D. To create information gaps between magicians and viewers．三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）I always wondered how people would react if I tried to approach a total stranger for help in a busy place like a street corner or a mall．I have always (36) a stranger who tried to catch my (37) in a busy place．Yesterday I was in a busy shopping mall buying a large piece of luggage because I just had the (38)to do it after many days of planning．After the (39)，I picked up my phone from my pocket to call my driver waiting in the parking lot but my phone was (40)．Then I requested the shop assistant who had (41) sold me the merchandise （which was not cheap），if she could ring my driver for me．She (42) that it was the shop policy that they cannot use (43)while working in the shop．After I got out of the shop onto the busy street，I (44)a young mother with her two kids to make the same (45)．As soon as I said "Excuse me，madam!" she grabbed her kids and ran．I (46) a kidnapper．I stood there wondering how many times I had (47) to strangers like the young (48)．I stood there in the (49) street with people rushing by，looking at their faces to see if there was a sign of (50) on their face．I saw a man pretty shabbily dressed compared to me who (51) to notice me．I just stopped him and made my request．He (52) called my driver and waited till my car came to make sure I was picked up，turned around (53) I could thank him adequately and was gone．I was (54) by kindness and hope I will do (55) to strangers who try to catch my attention from now on．36.

appropriate to the situation I was facing．As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me，he said，"All things are relative．" He taught me the right view of the world．When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student，I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company．His advice was simple，"Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better；management isn't about power and it's about leadership．" I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability．When I was feeling down，he explained，"Think that you make the wrong choices in life，sometimes．"My dad is 86 now，living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings．He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life．Although we live quite far away from each other，we talk daily on the phone，and he shares the joys of my young family．As I tell him how we're heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis，now his typical response is，"Do it while you can．" This is very important．We can't be sure of the future．My father's advice is like the ancient dictum （格言）of " carpe diem"- seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest．My dad rarely "lectured me"．He trusted me，and helped me when I needed help．His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life．As I doubt my ability and my motivation，I recall his most recent gift of wisdom，"Do it while you can"．It's enough to "just get me started"．Why did the author's dad tell him "All things are relative．"？（No more than 10 words）______What qualities should a manager have according to the author？（No more than 5 words）______What is the purpose of the author's father talking with him on the phone every day？（No more than 10 words）______How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph？（No more than 10 words）______ How do you feel about the ancient dictum of "carpe diem"？（No more than 20 words）______五、书面表达（本大题共1小题，共25.0分）57.你校英语社团要组织一次英语辩论赛，就"是否应该缩短中学生在校时间为8小时"的论题进行辩论，请你作为正方代表，写一份辩论稿，内容要点如下：（1）保证充足睡眠；（2）提高学习效率；（3）增加自主时间．注意：（1）词数不少于100；（2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；（3）辩论稿的开头已给出，不计入总词数．As a senior high student， I strongly recommend that___________答案和解析1.【答案】D【解析】答案：D．let's find some of the action．让我们找出一些行动．how do you find it？你怎么发现它的？it's entirely up to you．完全由你决定．you can't be serious．你何必太认真啦．．根据句意，D项正确．故选：D．我听说"钢铁侠三"最近上映了，我们现在就去电影院欣赏它吧．你何必太认真呢．大约晚上10点．我太累了，必须睡觉本题考查交际用语，准确掌握相关交际用语的含义，平时多积累一些交际用语，结合语境，选出正确的答案．2.【答案】C【解析】答案C．keep up with"跟上，赶上"；put up with"容忍，忍受"；end up with"以…结束"；catch up with"赶上，追上"．根据句意，睡前闻下鲜花的香吻，"结果"你就会很快进入甜美的梦乡了．这里强调的是结果，所以选择C．句意：在睡前闻一下鲜花的香味，你将可能得到一个甜美的梦．本题是基础题，考查动词短语，要掌握短语的意思并熟悉具体的语境选择出正确选项．3.【答案】A【解析】答案：A 本题考查感叹句作宾语从句．感叹句中what 所修饰的中心词是名词或名词短语，how 所修饰的中心词是形容词或副词．此题中空格处后面部分的中心词是名词problems，所以用what．句意为：这条令人震惊的消息让我意识到我们将面临多么可怕的问题．分析句子结构可知，动词realize后的宾语从句中，结构为"感叹词what+adj．+n．+陈述句的语序，如果用how，句子需要作改动：…how terribe the problems were．4.【答案】B【解析】根据句意可知the movie star arrived之前，粉丝已经等了两个小时，表示过去的过去一直做的事情，用过去完成进行时．故选：B．疯狂的粉丝已经耐心地等了两个小时了，他们还会再等，直到电影明星到来．本题考查过去完成进行时，过去完成进行时表示过去的过去发生的事情，属于相对的时态，在过去的动作之前一直发生的可以用过去完成进行时．5.【答案】C【解析】答案：C，考查现在分词的完成式，根据语境是没完成项目，因此使用否定形式not位于动词之前，not complete动作发生在stay之前，因此使用完成时，答案为not having completed．没有完成这个项目，他们不得不待在那多两个星期．考查现在分词的完成式，应对句子的成分进行分析，再对答案进行确定．6.【答案】D【解析】答案：D．support支持；care在乎；spare腾出，匀出；share分享．根据Let Harry play with your toys as well可知用share分享．故选：D．也让Harry玩你的玩具．--Clare，你要学会分享．本题考查动词词义辨析．平时多识记一些动词的含义，做题时结合句意做题．7.【答案】D【解析】答案：D因为后面的句子是完整的句子，从而判断不是定语从句，定语从句是缺少成分的，首先排除A 和C，B选项表示的意思是在哪里，是表示地点的，所以选D，D选项不是表示‘当…的时候'，而表示"既然"，相当于since，用以引导原因状语从句．全句意思为：你既然有这么好的工作，干嘛还要找新的工作呢？故选：D．你既然有这么好的工作，干嘛还要找新的工作呢？根据句意：你既然有这么好的工作，干嘛还要找新的工作呢？判断不是定语从句，后面的句子是完整的句子，定语从句是缺少成分的，首先排除A和C，B选项表示的意思是在哪里，是表示地点的，故选D，D选项不是表示‘当…的时候'，而表示"既然"，相当于since，用以引导原因状语从句．8.【答案】A【解析】答案A．本题考查的是with的独立主格结构，with+sb．/sth．+doing 表示sb/sth的主动；with+sb．/sth．+done 表示sb/sth的被动；with+sb．/sth．+to do表示sb/sth需要被做．根据句意餐桌是"被摆放好了"，故选A．句意：起居室既干净又整洁，餐桌已经被摆放好了等待着饭菜被做好．本题考查的是with的独立主格结构，要弄清with后面的宾语和宾补之间的关系才能选择出正确选项．9.【答案】A【解析】答案为A．本题考查定语从句中引导词和强调句型的综合运用．题干中第一空格后面是以the small house为先行词的定语从句，从句中缺少做主语指代物的关系that、which，故排除B；题干中存在强调句型，强调句型的基本结构是"It be+被强调部分+that（被强调的是人可以用who）+其它"．本题中被强调的是in the small house was built with stones by his father，去掉it was 和第二个空格中的词，句子是完整的，由此判断第二空用that；故答案是A．是在他父亲用石头建成得到小房子里他度过了童年．选择定语从句中的关系词，首先要理解各关系词的用法；然后找准先行词，将先行词带入到定语从句；最后根据先行词在定语从句中的作用判断关系词．此外，分清强调句型和定语从句．10.【答案】C【解析】详解： state是一个人的情形，往往指心情和身体状况；condition意为条件，也可以指人的身体状况；situation指的是情形，境遇，即一个人所处的环境；position指的是职位之类的意思结合句义只有C合适，学会处理危险的境地（情况）故选：C．必须教会在校生处置危险情况的方法．平时多加积累各种易混词的用法，学会深入理解句子含义，才能选择合适的词．11.【答案】D【解析】答案：D，考查交际语言的使用，Congratulations"祝贺你"，Cheers"举杯敬酒的用语"，Never mind"没关系，不用担心"，Good luck"祝你好运"，根据语境是祝愿别人比赛取胜，故答案为D．--麦克，我们队这周末要跟火箭队打比赛，我确信我们将会赢．--祝你好运！考查交际语言的使用，应联系前后句子的语境，对答案进行确定．12.【答案】A【解析】答案：A．way意为"方式，方法"，多指一般的思想、行动、办事的方法；approach原指接近某人或某物，也可指对待或处理的方式或方法；means可指采用的方法、计划、政策、策略等，尤指整套的方法；method指具体的、系统的、有步骤的方法，强调条理性及高效率．而仅approach可接to，指"…的方法"．会议上他们讨论了三种不同的学习数学的方法．本题考查名词辨析．学生应根据名词词义结合上下文选出合适答案．13.【答案】C【解析】答案：C．本题考查代词及定语从句．句中all作介词after的宾语，又作后面定语从句的先行词，all后面的关系代词that被省略．由句子含义和结构看，只有C项中的all 可填入空缺，表示"你父亲为你所做的一切"．故选：C．你的父亲为你做了这么多事，你还这样说他，真令人不舒服．本题考查不定代词的用法．不定代词的应用是高中英语考察的重点，熟记每个代词的用法，注意每个代词之间用法含义上的不同．解题时结合语境具体分析，选择正确答案．14.【答案】A【解析】答案是A．本题考查情态动词shall的用法．情态动词shall常常用来表示法律或条文的规定．根据句意可知，询问指示牌上的内容，属于条文的规定，所以本题答案选择A．--那里的指示牌上写着什么？--在这个区域没有人可以吸烟或携带点燃的香烟、雪茄或烟斗．要在正确理解情态动词的基本含义的基础上，整体理解语境中的情感态度，做出合理的判断．15.【答案】A【解析】答案：A．根据题干中的or可知其引导的是含蓄虚拟条件句，相当于if引导的虚拟条件句．根据句中they were abroad的were可知事情发生在过去，所以or引导的含蓄条件句是对过去情况的假设，所以谓语动词形式应为would/could/might/should have done．故选A．在我们进行调查的那几个月他们正在国外，不然的话他们就来帮忙了．此题考查含蓄虚拟条件句．解题时根据题干中的介词（短语）提示，如with，without，or，otherwise，but for等，再结合上下文的语境找到隐藏的条件，从而确定是对什么时间的虚拟假设．16.【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】D 【小题3】C 【小题4】D 【小题5】A【解析】1．B．细节理解题．根据第二段This app can help to remind you how many days， hours， and minutes you have until your exam． T his can

rank．可知总有战争和和平，我已经走了好几次，但都陷入了"战争"的泥潭，把它搁置了一段时间，意识到我必须重新开始，忘记了每个人的名字和社会地位．由此可见，get boggeddown没有进展，故选D．3．B．推理判断题．根据第三段How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite-once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland，which feels almost like cheating，too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature．可知仅仅是再次回到一个最喜欢的话题上，又一次陷入《狂野》或《爱丽丝梦游仙境》的召唤是多么的吸引人啊，这感觉几乎像是欺骗，太刺激了，太有趣了，不适合严肃的文学作品．由此可见，作者说读他最喜欢的书感觉像作弊是因为他应该读一些严肃的东西．故选B．4．D．推理判断题．本文作者介绍了自己读书的经历，根据他对一些作品的分享可知，他是个有文学头脑的人．故选D．5．A．推理判断题．根据整篇文章内容可知，本文主要讲述了作者在分享他的读书经历．因此作者在写这篇文章的目的是分享他的阅读经验．故选A．本文主要讲述了作者在分享他的读书经历．考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．31.【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】C 【小题3】A 【小题4】C 【小题5】C【解析】答案：1-5DCACC1．D．细节理解题．根据第一段It is one of the oldest magic tricks in the book-a magician locks a woman in a box，with her head and feet sticking out from either end，and saws （锯）it in half．But when she finally jumps out of the box，the woman is unharmed．可知这是书中最古老的魔术之一--魔术师把一个女人锁在一个盒子里，头和脚从两头伸出来，锯成两半．但当她最终从盒子里跳出来时，这个女人没有受伤．由此可见，第一段中提到了魔术，让我们想知道魔术师是如何欺骗我们的头脑的．故选D．2．C．细节理解题．根据第二段最后一句They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not．可知他们往往是由我们以前的经验驱动的，我们希望事情能像过去那样发展，即使有时情况并非如此．由此可见，。

Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, his tiny body so moved the salvage (救援) workers that they called him "our baby." In their home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia, people collected money for a headstone in front of the baby's grave (墓), carved with the words: "To the memory of an unknown child." He has rested there ever since. But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On Nov. 5, this year, three members of a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the grave. "This is our baby," says Magda Schleifer, 68, a banker. She grew up hearing stories about a great-aunt named Maria Panula, 42, who had sailed on the Titanic for America to be reunited with her husband. According to the information Mrs. Schleifer had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search for her five children, including a 13-month-old boy named Eino from whom she had become separated during the final minutes of the crossing. "We thought they were all lost in the sea," says Schleifer. Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby's grave, scientists have compared the DNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who lost relatives on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test points only to one possible person: young Eino. Now, the family sees: no need for a new grave. "He belongs to the people of Halifax," says Schleifer. "They've taken care of him for 90 years." Adapted from People, November 25, 2002 1. The baby travelled on the Titanic with his .A. motherB. parentsC. auntD. relatives 2. What is probably the boy's last name? .A. SchleiferiB. Eino.C. Magda.D. Panula. 3. Some members of the family went to Halifax and put flowers at the child's grave on Nov. 5 .A. 1912B. 1954C. 2002D. 2004 4. This text is mainly about how . A. the unknown baby's body was taken from the north Atlantic B. the unknown baby was buried in Halifax, Nova Scotia C. people found out who the unknown baby was D. people took care of the unknown baby for 90 years B Use your American Express Card to enjoy one-day privileges at four of America's greatest museums.

Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum D. Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts C We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, other, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it. Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed - no examination is perfect - but to have external tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher. Without external examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them - a form of favouritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defendence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school's reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school. The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer. These people are not just against school organisation, but are at war with the whole idea of modem competitive society and they are using children in schools for their destructive(破坏性的)purposes. There is no reason why we should allow such people to determine the way our schools are organised when it is to the obvious disadvantage of the pupils, of the schools and of our society as a whole. 8. The word "favouritism" in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that ________. A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs. B. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs. C. poor children with certificates are favoured in job markets. D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success. 9. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author? A. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation. B. There would be more opportunities and excellence. C. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools. D. Children's job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation. 10. Which of the following sentences is TRUE? A. Most students from poor families can't get a good job. B. Some people are using students to destroy our society. C. The writer thinks it a good way to choose a job by computer. D. The opponents of the examination want to reorganize schools. 11. The opponents would agree that _________. A. computers should be selected to take over many jobs B. particular people should not be chosen for particular jobs C. well-respected schools should be got rid of as soon as possible D. the students are not equally treated if they take external examinations D Being considered a leader in our society is indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills can't be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated. Different from popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They learn their skills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop? How do they (and how can you) get others to follow? Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the best leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity (慷慨) that's never forgotten. Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism (批评) , which often hurts rather than helps. Kenneth Blanchard, the author of The One-Minute Manager, agrees. "Catch people doing something right!" he says, "Then tell everyone about it." Take informed risks. "The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise," says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz, "Sky divers don't go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes (降落伞) beforehand." Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail, and not die a thousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again. Encourage enthusiasm (热情). "When people understand the importance of work, they lend their mental strengths," says Lee Ducat. But when they get excited about the work, all their energy gets poured into the job. That's a great force! Is this the best way to create excitement? Be enthusiastic yourself. You will be followed by everyone. 12. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? _______. A. Leadership Is of Skills and Techniques B. Leadership Is Very Important C. Not Many Can Be Leaders D. How to Be a Leader 13. The part "Always give credit" tells us that a leader should _______. A. give helpful criticism B. regard others as real heroes C. praise people for their good performances D. praise everyone 14. To be a good leader, you should _______. A. not be afraid of any risks B. think twice before taking risks C. try to avoid any possible failures D. know what a thoughtless exercise is 15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? _______. E Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer (温度计) for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. ___(16). We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don't feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer. Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale. Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide.__ (17) . The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury (⽔银) inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts (收缩). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube.__ (18). First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw (吸管) through the nail hole. __(19). Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily. __(20). As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week. A. We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives. B. Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way when they are heated or cooled. C. Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work. D. The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will expand and rise even higher. E. They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees. F. Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal (把…粘住) them together. G. People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.。

2020-2021学年北京市丰台二中高三英语模拟试卷及答案解析
2020-2021学年北京市丰台二中高三英语模拟试卷及答案解析第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AOn Friday morning when 53-year-old Thong Pham broke into the house through the unlocked back door, he took a steak knife from the kitchen.It was dark, and the family didn't know what Marley was barking (吠) at. Taylor, Amber and their girls Finley, 6,and Sadie, 4, soon woke up and came downstairs, too. “Well, it was dark so we couldn't see anything, only could hear Marley,” Amber recalled, saying her husband then went for the lights. “And once he turned the hall light on, we realized that the guy was holed up in the corner trying to hide.”“So I think he got to the front door and realized he couldn't get out, and by that point in time, Marley's got him cornered,”Taylorsaid. Pham slashed (砍) both Marley and Taylor, and blood went everywhere. Taylor shared a video summary to his Facebook page, where he said Marley was stabbed (刺) up to six times, mostly around the head and neck area. “And as I pulled back, blood shot out of my arm,”Taylorcontinued. “She got him pretty good and I got him pretty good in the face.”“But it was really hard because I was trying to make sure that my husband wasn't going to die,” Amber explained, adding that she was trying to protect their two girls. “When he realized that the two girls were in the house, that's when he kind of backed up and started running. "Taylorexpressed gratitude to everyone for their thoughts and prayers. And the family is thankful for their dog Marley.“She's our hero,” Amber said. “If it hadn't been for her, that guy could have gone in the...he could have gone to their rooms or something.”Tayloradded, “Yeah, I mean, the story plays out very differently if Marley's not there.”1. Why did the family come downstairs before daybreak?A. To stop a break-in.B. To lock the back door.C. To check on Marley.D. To turn the hall light on.2. What happened during the fight?A. Pham dug a hole in the corner.B. Marley was injured but bit back.C. Taylor had a backup from neighbors.D. Amber fought back to protect her girls.3. What doesTaylormainly express on his Facebook?A. Forgiveness.B. Concern.C. Anger.D. Appreciation.BThe race skywards began inAmerica. In the late1800s, industrialization had driven urban populations and land prices up, making tall buildings increasingly cost-effective, according to Carol Willis, director of theSkyscraperMuseuminNew York, “The very first tall buildings were office buildings that concentrated a work force, piled one on top of the other in order to make business very efficient, ”she says.Like all major changes in architecture, the trend wasunderpinnedby engineering. The development of steel framework, which could be used instead of load-bearing stones, made it easier and cheaper to build tall. The coming of the elevator, meanwhile, made living on higher floors far more convenient.Though similar in shape, today's skyscrapers (摩天大楼) look little like those built in the first half of the 20thcentury. This is mostly thanks to architecture's next major technological shift：the curtain wall.Postwar developments in manufacturing meant that huge panes of glass could be produced quickly and uniformly, and glass windows soon became the front of choice for high-rises. As well as allowing for greater floor space and more natural light, glass exteriors (外部) help. buildings resist greater windloads.There are now 191 completed skyscrapers that are at least 300 meters tall. But that doesn't mean our cities will grow taller indefinitely. While each additional story adds sellable floor space, construction costs also rise. All buildings reach a point where adding an extra floor will cost more money than it brings.“Every city wants to have this landmark that gives that sense of distinct culture, ”but it also needs places for people to live and work in urban settings“without the city sprawling (无序扩张), ”explains Hong Kong architect Simon Chan.The next big challenge facing architects goes beyond height：At a time when buildings and their construction account for more than a third of the world's energy consumption and contribute about 40% of greenhouse gas emissions(排放), there are new costs to consider.Whether it's employing more energy-efficient materials, encouraging natural air or using buildings themselves to generate solar or wind energy, reducing carbon emissions is the new frontier for many skyscraper architects.4. What does the underlined word“underpinned” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Created.B. Prepared.C. Suggested.D. Supported.5. What made living on higher floors much more convenient?A. The development of steel framework.B. Load-bearing stones.C. The use of the elevator.D. The curtain wall.6. What can we know from paragraph 5?A. Our cities will grow taller definitely.B. All skyscrapers are at least 300 meters tall.C. Construction cost rises as the stories increase.D. The profit for builders will be greater as the building becomes higher.7. What's the next big challenge facing architects?A. How to build the greenest building.B. How to build the strongest building.C. How to build the tallest building in the world.D. How to build the most comfortable building.CBrian Hamilton's life changed in a prison when he went there with his friend, Reverend Robert J. Harris, who often went to local prisons to do ministry work. During the visit,Hamiltonstarted talking to one of the prisoners and asked what he was going to do when he got out. “He said he was going to get a job,”Hamiltonrecalls. “I thought to myself, wow, that’s going to be difficult with a criminal background.”The conversation madeHamiltonconsider how to help those who came out from prison. Finally in 2008, 16 years after that initial conversation,Hamiltoncreated Inmates to Entrepreneurs, a nonprofit organization that helps people with criminal backgrounds start their own small businesses.At the time,Hamiltonwas building his own company, a software technology company for the banking industry. As his company grew, so didHamilton’s time devoted to giving lessons to prisoners. He averaged three to four courses a month at prisons throughoutNorth Carolina.Eventually,Hamiltondecided to shift his focus to his true passion. In May 2019, he sold his company and focused on helping those who were imprisoned. His online courses will be set next year. “By March 1, 2022, anyone will be able to access the courses, either to become a certificated instructor or to access it for themselves as a prisoner or part of the general population,”Hamiltonexplained. In addition, he visits middle schools andpresents the course to at-risk students as a preventative measure against crime.The free course is funded by the recently established Brian Hamilton Foundation, which offers assistance to military members as they return to civilian life and provides loans o small businesses. “Starting up a business isn't for everyone, but if we make opportunities available, and let people know that other people care about them, it makes a difference.”Hamiltonsaid.8. Why did Brian Hamilton went to a prison?A. He accompanied his friend.B. He took lessons in the prison.C. He wanted to get a job in the prison.D. He had a friend who was in prison.9. What can be inferred about Inmates to Entrepreneurs?A. It often assists military members.B It provides loans to small businesses.C. Its course has been largely broadened.D. It is an organization intended for business men.10. According to the author, which of the following best describesHamilton?A. He is a man who always changes his mind.B. He has a sense of social responsibility.C. He is good at running a big company.D. He makes money by giving lessons.11. What is the main idea of the text?A. A man made a fruitless visit to the prison.B. A man sold his business to teach prisoners.C. A man realized his dream of being a teacher.D. A man successfully created two organizations.DThe regular world presented to us by our five senses — you could call it reality 1.0 — is not always the most user-friendly. We get lost in unfamiliar cities; we meet people whose language we don’t understand. So why not try the improved version: augmented reality（AR）or reality 2.0 ? AR technology adds computer-produced images on the real world via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses.Early forms of AR are already here — smart phones can deliver information about nearby ATMs and restaurants and other points of interest. But that’s just the beginning. A few years from now the quantity of information available will have increased hugely. You will not only see that there’s a Chinese restaurant on the next block, but you will be able to see the menu and read reviews of it.This is where the next revolution in computing will take place: in the interface（界面）between the real world and the information brought to us via the Internet. Imagine bubbles floating before your eyes, filled with cool information about anything and everything that you see in front of you.Let’s jump ahead to ten years from now. A person trying to fix a car won’t be reading a book with pictures; he will be wearing a device that projects animated 3D computer graphics onto the equipment under repair, labelling parts and giving step-by-step guidance.The window onto the AR world can be a smart phone or special video glasses. But in ten years’ time these will have been replaced by contact lenses(隐形眼镜) with tiny LEDs, which present something at a readable distance in front of eyes. So a deaf person wearing these lenses will be able to see what people are saying.The question is, while we are all absorbed in our new augmented reality world, how willwe be communicating with each other?12. What is the text mainly about?A. The relationship between reality 1.0 and reality 2.0.B. Different forms of the AR technology.C. The next information technology revolution.D. The popularity of the AR technology.13. Which of the following will AR technology support according to the text?A. To pay for things online conveniently.B. To play online games merrily.C. To offer information efficiently.D. To communicate with others socially.14. What are Contact lenses with tiny LEDs used for?A. Show texts and images.B. Protect people’s eyes.C. Help deaf people communicate.D. Replace smart phone.15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the AR technology?A. Indifferent.B. Critical.C. Concerned.D. Favourable.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The changes in temperature, precipitation, and other climatic conditions are directly affecting the natural habitats of animals and making it difficult for them to survive.The melting polar ice caps and rising sea levels are destroying the natural habitats of aquatic animals. Many coral reefs are dying due to increased ocean acidity, which is adirect result of increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The warmer waters are also causing certain fish species to migrate to new areas, disrupting ecosystems and causing a ripple effect throughout the food chain.Land animals are also experiencing the effects of climate change. The changes in temperature are causing migratory birds to alter their migration patterns, which can negatively impact their ability to find food and breed. Similarly, certain mammals are changing their hibernation patterns, which can cause them to miss crucial food sources and impact their overall survival.In addition to the direct effects on wildlife, climate change is also causing an increase in extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts. These events can have devastating effects on entire ecosystems and the animals that rely on them. It is clear that climate change is having a significant impact on wildlife. It is important that we take action to mitigate the effects of this issue in order to protect the natural habitats of animals and ensure the survival of various species.8.
