(建议用时:35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·济南高三质检)There are only a few truly pleasant smells to wake up to in the morning. For me, it’s the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid.If you’re a big fan of coffee, you’ll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell—fresh, roasted coffee beans. And you’ll be able to identify the beans’origin —Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell is absolutely vital. “When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you’re getting physiological responses.”I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it’s the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case when I order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid through a hole in the lid. Yes, it’s convenient, but is it really the right way to appreciate it?You walk into the coffee shop, you get the smell, but when you actually take the drink out, you are drinking it from something that is designed to deliver the hot liquid directly past your tongue, but prevent any smell coming up to your nose. As well as eliminating the smell, takeaway coffee cups create a lot of waste and a vast majority of them still don’t get recycled. So maybe now is the time to really wake up and smell the coffee by drinking from a cup in a cafe, chatting with friends and saving the planet!【解题导语】咖啡的味道令作者着迷,但是纸杯装的咖啡,其味道被阻隔了,无法让人感觉到咖啡真正的味道,并且纸杯还带来污染。
1.In which aspect does the author agree with Tim Hayward?A.People drink coffee first thing in the morning.B.Coffee beans’origin makes all the differences.C.Some people are addicted to drinking coffee.D.It’s the smell of coffee that really matters.D解析:细节理解题。
根据第一段第二句“For me, it’s the smell of freshly brewed coffee.”以及第二段第三句中的“he believes the smell is absolutely vital”可知,两人都认为咖啡的味道非常重要。
故选D。
2.What does the author complain about?A.The process of making coffee.B.The high temperature of coffee.C.The design of the paper coffee cup.D.The inconvenience of buying coffee.C解析:细节理解题。
根据第三段最后一句和第四段第一句中的“you are drinking it from something that is designed to deliver the hot liquid directly past your tongue, but prevent any smell coming up to your nose”可知,纸杯的设计令作者不满。
故选C。
3.What can replace the word “eliminating”underlined in Paragraph 4?A.Creating.B.Removing.C.Increasing. D.Changing.B解析:词义猜测题。
根据第四段第一句中的“prevent any smell coming up to your nose”并结合画线词所在句可推知,该词的含义与“prevent”含义相近,故选B。
4.What can be the best title of the text?A.Wake Up and Smell the CoffeeB.Try to Be a Real Lover of CoffeeC.Drink Coffee to Save the PlanetD.Choose Takeaway Coffee for ConvenienceA解析:标题归纳题。
根据第一段第二句“For me, it’s the smell of freshly brewed coffee.”并结合文章其他内容可知,全文围绕咖啡的味道展开叙述,主要讲述了作者对咖啡味道的喜爱,并表述了打包带走的纸杯装咖啡的坏处,并因此建议不如在咖啡馆内坐下来,细细品味咖啡,故A项最适合作本文标题。
B(2020·洛阳第二次统考)There is more of a connection between foodand culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eatingthe food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associatefood from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it tiesus to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not bereadily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.We should embrace our heritage(传统) through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要探讨了食物和文化之间的联系。

It can be even scarier when you’re a young little blue penguin(企鹅),the tiniest of the penguin species. Luckily, there are some humans willing tohelp. They stepped in to protect Billy, a blue penguin that appeared on abeach in Christchurch, New Zealand.Spotted on November 29 at the slipway at Moncks Bay, near Sumner, in Christchurch, the little penguin immediately attracted a small crowd. Jeff Mein Smith saw the crowd while he was bicycling that afternoon, and he biked home to get his camera. When he returned to the scene, he found that the penguin had received a little sign, one that read “Hi, I’m waiting for my mum to come back. DOC(Department of Conservation) knows I’m here. Please leave me alone. Keep your dog away. Thanks, Billy the baby blue penguin.”Billy didn’t move away from the sign. The DOC arrived later that afternoon to pick up Billy, though they were surprised to see it on the beach. “It’s unusual for a blue penguin to be out in the open on the beach during the day,”Anita Spencer, a DOC senior ranger, told Stuff.Billy was taken to the Christchurch Penguin Rehabilitation Center after being retrieved from the beach. Volunteers believe the bird may actually be a female penguin, and is around 2 months old. The chick weighs a mere 550 grams, less than a standard basketball. A blue penguin should weigh around 900 grams at this age. Most little penguins grow up to weigh 1 kilogram.The center will help the little penguin gain some weight by feeding it fish juice, before it’s set free into the ocean.【解题导语】本文主要讲述了一只小蓝企鹅在人们的帮助下最终得救的故事。

No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. “We're moving house.” “No space for her any more with the baby coming.”“We never really wanted her,but what could we have done?She was a present.”People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. “We didn't know what had happened to her, ”said the woman at the door. “I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared.”“She must have tried to come back to them and got lost, ”added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson:not to judge people.36.How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?A.Shocked. B.Sympathetic.C.Annoyed. D.Upset.37.In her first few days at the author's house, Goldie________________________________________________________________________.A.felt worried B.was angryC.ate a little D.sat by the fire38.Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she ________.A.saw her puppiesB.heard familiar barkingsC.wanted to leave the authorD.found her way to her old home39.The passage is organized in order of ________.A.time B.effectivenessC.importance D.complexity。

But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun huts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them..When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.21. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He could not catch a fish.B. His father was not patient with him.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.22. What did the author’s father really mean?A. To read about fish.B. To learn fishing by oneself.C. To understand what fish think.D. To study fishing in many ways.23. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found __________.A. in deep water on sunny daysB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in shallow water under waterside trees.24. After entering the business world, the author found __________.A. it easy to think like a customerB. his father’s fishing advice inspiringC. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonableD. it difficult to sell services to poor people25. This passage most likely comes from _________.A. a fishing guideB. a popular sales bookC. a novel on childhoodD. a millionaire’s biographyBDaniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology ofcharacters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents’ educational background have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. “A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商) scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. “If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.26. By watching TV, children learn __________.A. images through wordsB. more than explicit meaningsC. more about images than wordsD. little about people’s psychology27. An educational program is best watched by a child __________.A. on his ownB. with other kidsC. with his parentsD. with his teachers28. Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?A. Radio-listeningB. Television-watchingC. Parents’ reading listD. Parents’ educational background29. Anderson believed that __________.A. the more a child watches TV, the smarter he isB. the younger a child is, the more he watches TVC. the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TVD. the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school30. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To advise on the educational use of TV.B. To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.C. To explain traditional views on TV influences.D. To present Anderson’s unconventional ideas.四.单句填空(每空5分,共30分)31. There are many differences in table _________(manner)in different cultures.32.

AFor a trip in early December, pick a destination with a glacier — just to be certain.Over the holiday period there should ideally be a white Christmas at village level, too.Go for a vacation spot that's over 1,800 metres high and snow cover won't be a worry.Val Thorens, FranceResort (胜地) height: 2,300-3,230mPistes (滑雪道): 495kmUsual season: Late November to early MayFrom late November to early May, snow cover is rarely a problem in Val Thorens — it's the highest ski village in Europe with 99% of it above 2,000 m, and suitable for beginners and intermediates.The excellent choice of independent ski schools here includes New Generation.The tourist attraction has benefited from new, attractive buildings, and a great collection of restaurants.Val d'Isère, FranceResort height: 1,850-3,456mPistes: 300kmUsual season: Late November to early MayVal d'Isère is one of the Alps' best-known vacation spots for advanced skiers and boarders, which means it's not the cheapest.But this is the one place that has plenty of snow at Christmas, especially as it has the largest snowmaking operation in Europe. It can pump out enough snow to cover Wembley Stadium in a metre of snow in less than an hour.Obergurgl, AustriaResort height: 1,950-3,080mPistes: 110kmUsual season: Mid-November to early MayObergurgl has been popular with British families for more than half a century, with a mainly easy ski area linked by gondola (缆车车厢) to the higher village of Hochgurgl.The climate is snow-sure, so this is one of the first major tourist attractions to open for the winter, normally in mid-November.1.Where should people who just start skiing go?A.Val Thorens. B.Val d'Isère.C.Obergurgl. D.Hochgurgl.2.What is unique about the place recommended to advanced skiers?A.Great restaurants.B.The ski run.C.Its snowy climate.D.The snowmaking system.3.What do we know about Obergurgl?A.It's located in Australia.B.It's a young tourist spot.C.It has the longest ski season of the three.D.It is intended for independent skiers.4.What do the three destinations have in common?A.They are all economical.B.They are all high-altitude.C.They centre around families.D.They are snow-sure.BIn the tiny village of Angelica, New York, the post office is more than a place to get mail or send packages.There you'll find the heart of this lovely community.It's where villagers meet and greet friends.When Angelica's post office was threatened with being closed in the 1980s, a villager, Pat, came up with a plan to save it.“At Christmas time I would hear on the news about towns named Snow or Bethlehem having celebrations,” says Pat.“Why couldn't we do the same thing with Angelica?”Pat, who is an artist, created a postal cancellation (邮戳) design featuring an Angelica angel.She drew her angels in a traditional fashion and submitted her suggestion to the U.S. Postal Service.Once approved, the drawing was carved into a stamp cancellation that could be used for one day only.The postmistress (女邮局局长) then had another idea to make the day even more special — calling the post office Angel Station.The large increase in mail amount saved Angelica's post office from being closed and keeps the doors open today.Now it's tradition that on the first Friday in December, people come to Angelica to mail their Christmas cards.Each year the amount of mail going through the Angelica Post Office increases during late November and early December.Stamp collectors from around the world haveaccepted the Angel Station cancellation, some sending mail from as far away as France.Because the stamp is destroyed each season, Pat draws a new angel that conveys season's greetings from Angel Station every year.Post offices may close in other parts of the country, but this tiny one continues.5.What did Pat do to save the post office?A.She invented a new cancellation.B.She hosted Christmas celebrations.C.She gave the office a better name.D.She designed a special set of stamps.6.Which of the following can best describe Pat?A.Curious and friendly.B.Stubborn and determined.C.Creative and warm-hearted.D.Humorous and intelligent.7.What can we learn about Angelica's post office from the passage?A.It was completely closed in the 1980s.B.It is also the center of local social life.C.Its name has been changed many times.D.Its stamps remain the same each season.COne Sunday Malachi Bradley was searching for wild mushrooms in eastern Utah when he realized he had wandered too far from the mountain lake where he was hiking with his father and siblings.The 10-year-old boy tried looking for a road to flag down a driver, but the area about 200 miles east of Salt Lake City was too remote. He remembered the survival skills his father had taught him and eventuallyhunkered (蹲下) down between rocks still warm from the sun to protect himself from the cold mountain night.“It was strange not having anybody with me, but I just kept going. I knew I had to make it back, or my family would be really sad,” Malachi said on Tuesday. Over the nearly 30 hours he was missing in the backcountry. He found river water to drink and even tried unsuccessfully to catch a fish with a spear made from a stick.Meanwhile, dozens of search and rescue workers were searching the area on horses and ATVs (全地形车), as well as in the air, but they couldn't spot Malachi in the wooded area.As night fell and temperature dropped, Malachi wrapped his T-shirt around his legs, huddled in his jacket and protected himself from the weather between the rocks. The remaining warmth helped him get through the night.Back at Paul Lake, his father, Danny Bradley, and a friend who had joined them for the camping were keeping a fire burning, hoping the boy might wander back by himself. As the hours wore on, Bradley imagined his son alone in the woods and was terrified that he might be hurt.The next day, Malachi heard a police helicopter flying overhead. He knew the searchers aboard the craft couldn't see him through the trees, so he started walking again until he found a clearing. He stayed there and briefly fell asleep until a search plane spotted him from the air and a helicopter landed to pick him up on Monday.“Malachi was found about five miles southeast of where he went missing,” Uintah County Sheriff Vance Norton said. It appeared that he wandered down a deep and narrow valley and over a hill before he found the clearing.Malachi said he would go camping again, but next time he wouldnot get away from other people. “I'v e learned from my mistakes,” he said.8.What did Malachi manage to do to survive?A.Build a shelter on his own.B.Catch a fish with a spear.C.Stay between rocks at night.D.Find a road to stop a passing car.9.How could the plane spot Malachi?A.He kept waving and shouting loudly.B.He stood on the top of a rock.C.He used his T-shirt to make a signal.D.He stayed in an area without trees or bushes.10.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.Danny Bradley kept a fire burning to let his son know the way backB.Malachi Bradley was searching for some flowers when he got lost C.Malachi always stayed where he went missing and waited for rescueD.Malachi's teacher once taught him how to survive in a wilderness 11.What lesson does Malachi Bradley learn from the experience?A.Be brave when in danger.B.Stay close to others when camping.C.Be cautious to take an adventure.D.Believe in oneself when facing difficulties.DFans of the movie Finding Nemo may remember the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin at the bottom of a trench.But in reality this “monster”,a black seadevil, is only about 9cm long, which would make it about a third of the size of Dory and potentially smaller than Marlin or Nemo.While this inaccuracy may seem harmless, it could cause problems for future conservation efforts, as people are more likely to support conservation of adorable rather than scary-looking animals.The black seadevil is just one of the mysterious “monsters”. From 2000-2010, scientists described about 1,200 new species in the Census of Marine Life.While this figure may seem astonishing, a further 5,000 individual dead creatures are in specimen (标本) jars, waiting to be described.Specimens must be methodically collected, identified, and then the identity of new deep-water species must be confirmed.If we call unusual deep-sea animals monsters, then we may harm their conservation as people are unlikely to be connected with them or care about saving them.On the other hand, their rarity clearly makes them popular on social media sites.For other species, this has already resulted in increases in illegal trading for unusual pets.Deep-sea species may potentially become illegally obtained specimens of food.Humans may end up eating these animals of the deep sea to extinction before their species are even known to science.Every habitat on earth is interconnected, and whatever we as humans do has an influence on marine ecosystems.In reality, about 80% of our oxygen is produced by microorganisms (微生物) in the oceans.This makes our oceans both the lungs and lifeblood of our planet and we mustall try harder to save them.12.What can we know about the black seadevil in reality?A.People benefit greatly from the oxygen produced by it.B.Its body size is a big threat to fish like Dory and Nemo.C.Its scary appearance will cause problems for conservation.D.People didn't know much about it when filming Finding Nemo.13.What does the author think of the progress of describing new species?A.Acceptable. B.Surprising.C.Unsatisfying. D.Hopeless.14.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 7 probably refer to?A.Their popularity on social media sites.B.Their rarity among sea creatures.C.Their conservation being harmed.D.Their importance being ignored.15.What can we infer about those unusual sea animals?A.They are the lungs and lifeblood of our planet.B.Confirming their identity is very urgent for protection.C.Most of them are becoming illegally obtained specimens.D.Adorable ones are more likely to be posted on social media sites. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
