2020北京海淀高三(上)期中语文2020.11 本试卷共8页,150分。
考试时长150分钟。
考生务必将答案答在答题纸上。
在试卷上作答无效。
考试结束后,将本试卷和答题纸一并交回。
一、本大题共5小题,共17分。
阅读下面材料,完成1-5题。
材料一随着我国居民精神文化消费比重的显著提高,人们开始追求个性化,差异化的商品,关注其蕴含的精神内涵。
在互联网技术的助推下,信息交流,品牌文化传播等不断增强,许多基于中华优秀传统文化开发设计的文创产品呈热销态势,由此带动了文创产业的持续发展。
在这一热潮中,也存在产品开发同质化、定位模糊、质量不高等问题。
那么,如何通过文创产品使优秀传统文化焕发生机,成为滋养当代人生活的养分呢?文创产品研发的重心应是实现从文化遗产到文化资源的转化,而文化遗产转化为文化资源,关键之处在于对文化精神的创新表达。
从传统造物的形状、色彩、纹饰中提取元素,把它凝练为直观鲜明的文化艺术符号,形成具有中国特色的文创产品,是较为常见的设计方式。
比如故宫文创的口红,膏体颜色取自故宫院藏国宝器物,外观取自宫廷绣裳纹饰;敦煌文创的胸章,选用六合莲花等盛唐时期的藻井纹饰。
文创产品的创新设计,不仅__________,而且____________。
比如有的文创产品围绕二十四节气发挥创意,表现人与自然、物候之间的联系;有的文创产品运用“图必有意,意必吉样”的造型语言,表现中国人追求美好生活、积极向上的态度;有的文创产品展视中华悠久历史文化,表现中华文明海纳百川的广阔胸襟。
中华文化保存在典籍文献,遗址文物中,更蕴藏在人们衣食住行用的目常生活里。
文化传统只有存续在生活中,才能不断焕发生机与活力。
过去,不少文博场馆的纪念品远离生活,缺乏创意。
消费者买来后,大多将其置于角落,任其蒙尘。
当下,一系列文创产品从日常生活需要出发进行创意设计:小到胶带,便笺、行李牌,大到公共空间的装饰品;古典的如古器复刻,新颖的有数码周边;时令性的如春茶、月饼、夏季的遮阳帽,冬天的披肩。

"I don't like to around - I've always got to have something to do.That's my nature,"Rigney said in a statement,adding that she always wanted to become a nurse. "I love to interact with patients and give them the help that I can."Rigney planned on retiring once at age 65,but after six months,she decided that she needed the job to stay active and keep her mind sharp.Now as she officially retired,the hospital noted that Rigney planned on spending most of her time enjoying family and friends. "Even working into her nineties she has never been one to slow down.Some of her colleagues joked that they had to sprint to keep up with her," said LaureenDriscoll,president of the hospitals. "SeeSee's continued to be a dedicated nurse and an incredible resource to her colleagues and community.It's humbling to stop and think aboutthe thousands and thousands of lives she's cured for.Everyone at MultiCare thanks Rigney for her unmatched dedication and service,and we're proud to honor her by supporting tomorrow's future nurses," she continued.As she said goodbye to her beloved job,Rigney offered some advice for other nurses."Don't ever think that you know it all." she noted in the release. "I kind of did that when I was in the operating room and you have to always be open.You never slop learning."In her honor,the hospital announced the creation of its SeeSee Rigney Nursing Endowed Scholarship Fund,which will provide scholarships for MultiCare employees for continued learning and development in nursing.4.Rigney continued working at age 65 because she ______ .A. needed to support her familyB. wanted to stay energetic and sharpC. hoped to show her personal valueD. intended to promote nurse training5.What was Rigney's suggestion for younger nurses?______A.

Lead to.B. Impact on.C. Break in.D. Focus on.9.What can we learn from the passage?______A. Earworms are mainly caused by music with lyrics.B. Bedtime music leads to high blood pressure and anxiety.C. Quiet music improves sleeping quality while loud music harms sleep.D. Both familiar and unfamiliar instrumental music can cause sleeping problems.10.The passage is mainly about ______ .A. how instrumental music disturbs sleepB. the possible negative effect of bedtime musicC. how people can improve their sleep qualityD. differences between music with and without lyricsDI was at the Gathering for Science in Boston,on 22 April 2017,as were 70,000 otherscientists.We were there to stand up for facts and truth.Where are the crowds of scientists now?Since then,harms from science denial have only increased:global suffering has grown owing to inaction on climate change,and some epidemics have risen along with vaccine skepticism.I've been out there talking to the science deniers,and I've asked my scientist friends to come with me. "Those people just aren't worth talking to." they'll say. "I wouldn't make a difference anyway." What's wrong.Those people can and do change their minds,although it requires someone to put in the time to overcome distrust.To he sure,many experts have launched themselves against misinformation,enduringabuse on social media and even threats to their safety.But when scientists turn flown my invitations,it's not because of fear.Most often,their excuses are grounded in the "backfire effect",a questionable 2010 finding that people sometimes embrace misconceptions more strongly when fared with corrective information,implying that pushing back againstfalsehoods is counter-productive.Even the researchers whose results were exaggerated to popularize this idea do not embrace it anymore,and argue that the true challenge islearning how best to target corrective information.In fact,evidence is growing that rebuttals can he effective.Science deniers all draw on the same flawed reasoning techniques:cherry-picking evidence,relying on fake experts,and engaging in illogical reasoning.A landmark 2019 study showed that critiquing the flawed techniques can contain the spread of misinformation.So how does "technique rebuttal" work in practice?Arnaud Gagneur and his colleagues at the University of Sherbrooke conducted more than 1,000 20-minute interviews in which they listened to new parents' concerns aboutvaccinations and answered their questions.Those parents' children were 9% more likely to receive all the vaccines on the schedule than were those of uninterviewed parents whose babies were delivered in the same maternity ward.One mother told him:"It's the first time that I've had a discussion like this,and I feel respected,and I trust you." It is self-evident in science communication that you cannot convince a science denier with facts alone;most science deniers don't have a lack of information,but a lack of trust.So what should scientists do?Even non-experts ran use technique rebuttal.A geologist can engage a neighbor who is vaccine hesitant.A protein biologist ran coach an aunt or uncle who wants "more evidence" that climate change is real.Instead of shilling to more comfortable conversations,engage in respectful exchange.If you spend more time asking questions than offering explanations,people will be more likely to pay attention to the explanations that you do offer.11.What can we learn from the passage?______A. The Gathering for Science addressed online abuse.B. The silence of scientists worsens harm from science denial.C. Ineffective vaccines speed up the spread of some epidemics.D. The author's friends find it valuable to talk with science deniers.12.According to the passage,the "backfire effect" ______ .A. suggests caution before correcting othersB. emphasizes the effectiveness of rebuttalsC. results from flawed reasoning techniquesD. enjoys wide support in the academic field13.The last two paragraphs suggest that ______ .A. the interviewed parents agreed to vaccination due to the sufficiency of the informationB. geologists and protein biologists need to make sure the conversations are comfortableC. scientists fire encouraged to listen carefully find ask questions during interactionD. scientists should teach non-experts how to conduct respectful exchanges14.In writing this passage,the author aims to ______ .A. express concerns for misinformationB. analyze the mot cause of science denialC. advocate employing technique rebuttalD. present the problems scientists encounter二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)What's in a name?Some words sound like what they mean.And they could influence everything from fictional depictions of aliens to your first impression on a jobapplication.But most words have no apparent connection to what they signify.As thelinguist Steven Pinker puts it,we call a dog "dog" because everyone else does.And that's how it lifts to be. (1)That rule applies to most words,but not all.The words pop and murmur sound like they sound.Try to shout the word whisper.Weird,right?(2) It seems natural to associate the names of large animals,for example,with low-pitched sounds:say,elephant,compared with mouse.Pinker and others argue that iconicity is rare in language,but plenty ofpsychologists and linguists disagree.Beyond the debates,there are far-reaching implications for human interaction. (3) People associate the "round" sounds in people's names with one set of characteristics,and names featuring "sharp" sounds with a very different set. "Anne tends to heconscientious,hardworking and sensitive," Penny Pexman,a psychologist at University of Canada says. "Kale is expected to be extroverted,less conscientious,less hardworking and less agreeable."Luckily,surveys suggest that the link exists only in the mind of the person making it. (4) "You could construct a little hit of an unlikely situation where people start to look like their names over time and maybe people's personalities start to match their names through some sort of congruency(一致性).But we didn't find that." Pexman says.There's also no evidence that people are basing their judgments on people they met previously.(5) "We have videos of people being interviewed for jobs and we will manipulate thenames of those candidates before others evaluate them," she says."What's in a name?" William Shakespeare asked us in Romeo and Juliet. "That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Well,perhaps not.A.It is generally believed that names define who we are.B.People lend to expect one to have specific trails based on how one's name sounds.C.English language has developed a rule of names reflecting people's good qualities.D.It would overwhelm our senses if every word we spoke came with a deeper meaning.E.Such terms show sound iconicity,or a similarity between a word's form and meaning.F.There is no evidence that the Kates of the world are more extroverted than the Antics.G.Pexman will also examine how people's names could affect their chances of beingchosen after an interview.15.
