to participate in．BDesperate to help his 96-year-old mother to speak her mother tongue again，Keith McDermott made an appeal on social media and was met with a flood of kind responses．The old lady，Ray，was moved to tears after talking on the phone with one of the enthusiastic respondentsin Welsh．Ray moved to America after meeting her husband when she was only 18，hence waving goodbye to her life in Wales．She continued to speak Welsh with her mum - keeping a little bit of home．But she lost her beloved mum four decades ago and hadn't spoken Welsh since．Despite suffering from short-term memory loss and sometimes not remembering what she has done recently，Ray's childhood memories in Wales remain crystal clear．“She wants to return but I know，given her age，such long-distance travel is out of the question．” said Keith，“Once she mentioned ‘I wish I could speak Welsh again but I suppose I never will．’ It was then that I thought I should make her wish happen．”So Keith，70，posted on social media in the New York Welsh area asking for any Welsh speakers that could speak Welsh with his mum．And he was touched，as well as a little shocked，to receive over 30 responses within half an hour．Keith thanked everyone and eventually asked Melisa to give his mum a phone call．“Speaking with Melisa，her（Ray's）Welsh was a little rusty．A few more Welsh conversations and I think she'd be fluent again，” added Keith．“When you have a parent in their nineties，you will find you two have something in common：you're both old，so I am very sympathetic to my mother's feelings of loneliness and isolation（孤立）．I'm feeling it myself．” Keith hopes to set up more Welsh phone conversations for his mum and Melisa has promised to send Ray some short stories in Welsh to remind her of her life in Wales．24．Why did Keith post a message on social media？A．To gather American Welsh speakers．B．To help his mum speak Welsh again．C．To slow down his mum's memory loss．D．To track down his family's Welsh origin．25．How did Keith feel after seeing the responses？A．Surprised and moved．B．Concerned and thankful．C．Sympathetic and excited．D．Astonished and isolated．26．What is conveyed in the story？A．Social media contribute to closer family ties．B．Mother tongue means more than a language．C．Childhood experiences shape one's later life．D．One will be more sensitive when getting older．27．Where is the text probably taken from？A．A community noticeboard．B．A health magazine．C．A language-learning website．D．A local newspaper．CThroughout history，many species of animals have been threatened with extinction．When Europeans first arrived in North America，more than 60 million buffalo（水牛）lived on the continent．Yet hunting the buffalo was so popular during the 19th century that by 1900 the animal's population had fallen to about 400 before the government stepped in to protect the species．In some countries today，the elephant faces a similar challenge，as illegal hunters kill the animals for the ivory in their tusks．Yet not all animals with commercial value face this threat（威胁）．The cow，for example，is a valuable source of food，but no one worries that the cow will soon be extinct．Why does the commercial value of ivory threaten the elephant，while the commercial value of beef protects the cow？The reason is that elephants are a common resource，while cows are private goods．Elephants wander freely without any owners．The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants ashe can find．Because illegal hunters are numerous，each has only a slight motivation to preserve the elephant population．By contrast，cattle live on farms that are privately owned．Each farmer makes great effort to maintain the cattle population on his farm because he harvests the benefit of these efforts．Governments have tried to solve the elephant's problem in two ways．Some countries，such as Kenya and Uganda，have made it illegal to kill elephants and sell their ivory．Yet these laws have been hard to put into effect，and elephant populations have continued to dwindle．By contrast，other countries，such as Malawi and Namibia，have made elephants private goods and allowed people to kill elephants，but only those on their own prорertу．With private ownership and the profit motive now on its side，the African elephant might someday be as safe from extinction as the cow．The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle pointed out the problem with common resources：“What is common to many is taken least care of，for all men have greater regard for what is their own than for what they possess in common with others．”28．Why does the author mention buffalo in paragraph 1？A．To introduce a similar threat to elephants．B．To provide an example of species extinction．C．To offer an explanation for government policies．D．To present the statistics of the buffalo in America．29．Why do elephants face threats while cows are safe？A．They are under different law protection．B．They attract different groups of hunters．C．They contain different commercial value．D．They represent different ownership types．30．What is paragraph 4 mainly about？A．Bans on killing elephants for ivory．B．Effective laws for elephant protection．C．Methods of making elephants private goods．D．Government policies on the elephant's problem．31．What can we learn from Aristotle's words？A．People hold little regard for others' property．B．People want to profit from common resources．C．People care more about their own possession．D．People tend to take what they own for granted．DIf someone created a flying machine capable of tracking you down by listening for your voice，you might be terrified．But what if you were trapped in ruins after a natural disaster and first responders couldn't locate you？Maybe then a human-seeking drone（无人机）wouldn't be such a terrible idea．That concept is the focus for engineers at Germany's Fraunhofer FKIE Institute，who've built a drone to find people by detecting（探测）human screams．“The human-seeking drone would be ideal for post-disaster situations，such as earthquakes，hurricanes and wildfires，” said Macarena V arela，one of the lead engineers．“They could hover over an area that rescue crews have difficulty getting to and locate exactly where people may be trapped．”Locating people by sound presents its share of challenges．An auditory（听觉的）system would need to distinguish human cries from sounds that often happen in nature，such as animal calls and wind．It might also need to recognize patterns associated with kicking，clapping or other ways people try to get the attention of rescue teams．Engineers took those situations into account when building out their concept drone．They recorded themselves screaming，tapping and creating other noises that might be a sign of people in trouble．Then，they analyzed each sound frequency to find common signatures and used those totrain artificial intelligence software．They also worked to remove the noise created by the drone and other environmental sounds．Once the software part was complete，the team placed tiny digital microphones under the drone and used signal processing techniques that enabled them to track where human noises are coming from．The microphones also enhanced the volume and clarity of the speech．So far，they have conducted successful open field experiments，finding that the drone can estimate a victim's location within a few seconds of picking up sound．Next，they would like to add a higher frequency microphone to a drone to acquire more audio sound signals．The idea is to pick up noises from hundreds of meters away，Varela said．In the real world，victim's location data might one day be sent wirelessly to emergency crews carrying a tablet．32．What is the advantage of the human-seeking drone？A．Its high speed of flying．B．Its long working hours．C．Its quick response to screams．D．Its easy access to disaster scene．33．What can the auditory system do？A．Recognize human cries．B．Pick up sounds from far away．C．Send victim's location data to a tablet．D．Improve the quality of human screams．34．What does the underlined word “signatures” in paragraph 4 refer to？A．Effects．B．Symbols．C．Features．D．Situations．35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text？A．AI Enables Drones to Give Better PerformanceB．Human-seeking Drones Replace Rescue CrewsC．Engineers Teach Drones to Hunt Human ScreamsD．Rescuers Use Drones to Locate Disaster Survivors第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

AMarineLand Theme ParkWith numerous rides，a variety of wildlife from both land and sea and shows filled with action-packed excitement，no wonder it’s a hit with visitors from all over the world．Whether riding on the world’s biggest steel roller coaster，Dragon Mountain，or enjoying a show filled with fun-loving dolphins and intelligent whales，you’re sure to have the time of your life at MarineLand．Having been in business for more than 50 years，this park has something for every member of the family!Highlights＆Attractions：The King Waldorf Stadium Show：This entertaining，educational and heart-warming show features dolphins，white whales，sea lions，and walruses and is sure to leave you in awe as well as help you understand and appreciate these wonderful marine mammals(海洋哺乳动物)．Arctic Cove：It featuring one of the largest white whale collections in the world，visitors are able to purchase a pass to Arctic Cove where they can touch andfeed the whales as well as view them underwater．Friendship Cove：Breathtaking underwater viewing allows you to enter the magic world of the killer whale below the water surface or on a surface level walkwav．Hotels：Villager Lodge：It is located in Niagara Falls，Ontario．Diplomat Inn：Within half a mile of the Skylon Tower，it is the choice for an inexpensive location．Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel&Spa：It is close to popular attractions and the Scotiabank Convention Center．Days Inn Lundy’s Lane：It is located just two miles from the gorgeous Niagara Falls and the Skylon Tower Observation Deck．Hours of Operation：10：00 am-5：00 pm(Sept．11th—Oct．13th)Phone：417—823—09811．What can be learned about MarineLand Theme Park?A．It is only suitable for kids．B．It was opened fifty years ago．C．It has both 1and and marine animals．D．It has the world’s biggest roller coaster．2．What is special about Arctic Cove?A．It has the largest white whale collection in the world．B．It allows visitors to enter the magic world of the killer whale．C．It features an entertaining show starring various marine mammals．D．It provides visitors with a chance to interact with white whales personally．3．Which hotel suits you best if you have a tight budget?A．Diplomat Inn．B．Villager Lodge．C．Days Inn Lundy’s Lane．D．Marriott Niagara Fails Fallsview Hotel&Spa．BA few weeks ago，I bought a locally-grown salad from a vending machine(自动售货机)．But then I immediately realized that it was packaged in a plastic jar．“I guess I live with this jar now and forever．”I thought sadly as I stared down at my new child．The salad jar was only the latest in a long line of examples of how I am addicted to the responsibility of reusing everything，trying to never throw anything away．Water bottles have been given second lives，and berry containers are transformed into Tupperware．I recently even looked at a plastic straw in my fruit juice：Could I reuse it too…?Yet trying to squeeze my salad jar under my kitchen counter this weekend，I finally had to admit：Being an environmentalist has turned me into a hoarder(囤积者)．While keeping a certain number of jars and vegetable bags will allow me not to buy new containers，at a certain point those 30 berry containers begin to get a bit unnecessary．Who am I kidding?Then one day I came across a blog post that asks accusingly．“Are you turning your own home into a landfill(垃圾填埋场)?”In my defense，there is absolutely no excuse not to be a conscious consumer．The solution is painfully obvious，but hard to admit：Delaying waste is not，in fact，rejecting waste．In an over-packaged，over-consuming culture，this can feel like a burden．While I refuse to throw away packaging，the fact remains：I already have it．The damage is done．I’ve been ignoring one of the most essential and difficult parts—reduce，reuse，recycle．Even if I go out of my way to reuse the waste I do have，I need to reduce what I am bringing home in the first place．While I might not be ready to go full zero-waste，it’s a goal that is admirable to work toward．Until then，my salad jar child is going to make a great overnight oats jar．4．What does the author try to indicate by the last sentence in paragraph 2 ? A．How important reusing is．B．How enthusiastic she is about reusing．C．How she makes use of the plastic straw．D．Why she is responsible for reusing plastic straws．5．Why does the author say she has turned into a hoarder?A．She enjoys collecting a variety of small jars．B．She has saved far more containers than she needs．C．She likes the idea of saving fine packages in daily life．D．She stores more berry containers than other containers．6．What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 4 refer to?A．Over-packaging．B．Delaying waste．C．Over-consuming．D．Rejecting waste．7．The author realizes at last that she should___________．A．buy fewer over-packaged goodsB．throw away unnecessary packagingC．reuse materials as much as possibleD．appreciate the value of recycling materialsCIt is common for adults to use“baby talk”when interacting with babies．This way of speaking attempts to imitate the sounds babies make when they first try to talk．But is this form of communication helpful to a child’s development?Several studies have suggested a clear link between parental language methods and a child’s early language development．Studies showed that language learning in babies was improved when parents spoke more than a few simple words and used a wider vocabulary．Earlier research found that the style of speech used by parents to communicate with their baby could have an influence on language development．One such speaking style is known as“parentese”．Research has shown that babies react better to this kind of language in the first months of life．Generally，parentese involves adults speaking in a higher voice and at a slower speed．The language is simplified，while sentences are short and often repeated．Studies from the past 30 years have confirmed that babies spoken to in parentese developed larger vocabularies throughout the first three years of life．A new study on the subject，a project of the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences，examined whether parents can be effectively taught methods to improve their parentese skills．Naj a Ferjan Ramírez．working in the Institute for Learning＆Brain Sciences，said that the parents involved in the research were first shown the importance of language input for their baby’s development．Parents were then given suggestions on how to use different parentese methods，and then rated on how well they used these methods with their child．She added that the new study is important because there are still a 1ot of parents with little knowledge about how to use parentese to help their child．This was one reason the researchers included parents from different cultural and economic groupings．8．How do parents usually talk with their babies?A．By speaking in a funny style．B．By copying babies’sounds．C．By raising speaking speed．D．By whispering in babies’ears．9．What can we learn from the second paragraph?A．Babies’language skills are decided by talent．B．Babies’language is improved by simple words．C．Parental language style helps improve babies’behavior．D．Parental language methods affect babies’language development．10．Where can you find how parents were trained in parentese skills?A．In paragraph 2．B．In paragraph 3．C．In paragraph 4．D．In paragraph 5．11．What can be the best title for the text?A．Communicating with babies matters moreB．Parentese is a good way to practice languageC．The more parents help，the better babies 1earnD．Speaking parentese helps with babies’language learningDGwheezie，a nurse，wrote about her heart attack symptoms on social media．“Last Sunday I had a heart attack．I’m alive because I called 911．I never had chest pain．It wasn’t what you read in brochures．”Gwheezie pointed out that she recently helped her neighbor clean out the garden and actually thought it was muscle strain(扭伤)．The pain ran across her upper back，shoulders and equaly down both arms．“I’d just written it off because it wasn’t really bad，”Gwheezie said．She even drove six hours to help her mother the day before the actual attack came．However，she almost died because she didn’t call it“chest pain”．“I was lucky，”she wrote．“And I wanted to warn women our heart attacks feel different．”“Pain that comes and goes seems like a surprising symptom，but it’s actually common for heart disease，”women’s health expert，Jennifer Haythe says.“Some women will experience chest pain，but it may feel different than the typical ‘crushing pain(压迫性疼痛)’men will describe．Other women won’t have chest pain at all，which can be deadly．”Sanjiv Patel，MD，says．“Women are far morelikely to develop untypical symptoms for a heart attack，including indigestion，shortness of breath，tiredness，and arm，neck and back pain，etc．”But there are ways to distinguish if the pain is heart-related．“If you have pain and it gets worse when you exhaust yourself，that’s more likely to be a sign，”Patel says．“If you have pain and difficulty breathing when you’re sitting and watching TV，you get up and walk around and it goes away，the pain is probably not related to your heart．Moreover，if it comes back the next day for a longer period of time．you’11 want to see a doctor．”“Any new symptom that doesn’t feel quite right calls for an immediate call or visit to your doctor，”Haythe says．“Take your body seriously．It’s usually telling you something．”12．Why did Gwheezie post her heart attack symptoms on social media?A．To raise some money．B．To record the process．C．To inform other women．D．To share her lucky story．13．What does the underlined phrase“written it off”in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Ignored it．B．Recorded it．C．Treated it．D．Discovered it．14．What do Jennifer Haythe’s words indicate?A．Pain is a fairly rare symptom for heart disease．B．Chest pain may be a good thing for heart disease．C．Women are far more likely to die of heart disease．D．Men have more chest pain symptoms than women．15．How can we distinguish heart-related pain?A．Ftom the breath and sleep．B．Ftom the position and frequency．C．From the tiredness and heart beats．D．From the degree and length．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。
2019-2020学年厦门一中高三英语模拟试题及答案解析
2019-2020学年厦门一中高三英语模拟试题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AThe Internet has revolutionized our lives to such an extent (程度) that for most people, the global network has become more than just a tool but rather an important aid in everyday life. More and more people go online as wireless networks have brought the Internet closer and closer: it’s on our mobile phones, in our cars and TV sets, in hospital surgery rooms and in fishing boats that battle the waves of the Atlantic.And this revolution has brought along with it a new way of shopping. Both big and small, e-business websites have flooded the Internet by the hundreds of thousands. Anything you can buy from a brick and mortar store (实体店) you can also buy online: from food and clothes to toys, no matter what you’re looking for, you’re bound to find the right online store with just a few clicks of the mouse. You can use the Internet to find new suppliers, post buying requests or search for products and services.This revolution has affected brick and mortar business owners greatly. And what was their reaction? They’ve opened online stores to go hand in hand with their conventional business.But do the big players have reasons to be afraid? Are we going to start seeing ghostly, deserted Walmarts (沃尔玛) across the country? Probably not in the near future but the day will come when most people will just stop shopping offline anymore. A trip to Walmart wastes time, burns gas.The recent advancements in mobile technology and the introduction of mobile phones with enhanced (提高的) web capabilities have even made some people order their groceries when they get out from work and have them delivered at their doorstep by the time they get home. And as “Time is money”, this practice is lifesaving for people whowork two jobs.Technology will continue to advance and e-business will follow closely in its footsteps. Everything will become easier and less time consuming, leaving us more time to enjoy the things that really matter in life: the ones we love, our friends and hobbies.1. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A. The popularity of mobile phones.B. The great influence of the Internet.C. The importance of the Internet.D. The function of the global network.2. In response to the threat of online business, the brick-and-mortar store owners________.A. have stopped their traditional businessB. have started their dislike of the InternetC. have established their own websiteD. have opened their online stores3. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A New Way of Shopping.B. The Internet Revolution.C. What is the Reaction to Online Shopping?D. Is Online Shopping the Future of E-business?BThis is a true story. Tristin Saghin enjoyed themovie “Black Hawk Down” very much, which is about the conflict inSomalia. The battle scenes and the exciting rescues of people who are dying interested him greatly.There was just one problem: Tristin was only 9 years old, and it was thought that movie was not for children. When his parents caught him watching it on TV, they made him turn it off, though he had finished his homework and it was not late. Then one day, Tristin and his family were visiting his grandmother inMesa,Arizona. Tristin’s 2-year-old sister got out of the house and fell in the backyard pool. Realizing the little girl was missing, the family ran outside, only to find the girl had fallen into the water.Pulled from the pool and placed on the ground, the child wasn’t breathing. The family called the ambulance, but no one knew how to do first aid. No one, that is, except for Tristin. A scene in “Black Hawk Down” describes a doctor giving first aid. Tristin remembered it. Then the 9-year-old gave first aid to his sister at once and saved her life.His parents don’t stop him seeing the movies he likes any more.Tristin taught himself how to do first aid but he had never thought he could use it to save his little sister’s life. Any skill can be used in time, so you should always learn.4. According to the text, Tristin Saghin ________.A. lived inMesa,ArizonaB. disliked studying very muchC. was always ready to help othersD. was nine years old5. Why did Tristin Saghin’s parents order him to turn off the TV?A. They wanted him to help look after his sister.B. He often spent too much time watching films.C. They thought the film was not good for children.D. He was asked to finish his homework first.6. How was Tristin’s sister saved?A. Tristin gave first aid to her.B. The ambulance arrived in time.C. A doctor passing by gave a hand.D. Her parents sent her to hospital at once.7. The author’s purpose in writing the text is to advise readers to ________.A. see more moviesB. learn more skillsC. save others bravelyD. do what they likeCThe British poet Matthew Byrne moved to Beijing in 2013 and felt that the capital city's poetry scene was lacking．His obsession（痴迷）for starting poetryevents led to the foundation of the Spittoon Collective in May 2015．“At that time，the literary activity in Beijing was The Bookworm based in Sanlitun，”Byrne says．While some of Beijing's literary institutions would go on to close in the fall of 2019，Spittoon would continue to grow as a community for poets and writers，as well as musicians and others in the creative scene．Byrne describes the Spittoon Collective as a platform for people to share ideas，from literary works to different forms of art，with projects developing from the creative energy within the community．Spittoon originally started as a poetry night at the Mado Bar in Dongcheng District 's Baochao Hutong．Byrne says，“In Beijing，you have these wonderful hutongs，ancient structures where you can walk down and visit cool bars，so I thought it would be good to have a poetry event as it seemed like poetry belonged naturally to this area．”He adds，“The objective now is to discover Chinese voices and broadcast them to the rest of the world．We create a kindof theme park-like atmosphere where every Thursday is occupied by a different literary style or art form．”The readings would mainly be in English，but with an international community，a new section called“Poetry-in-Translation”was started，which featured works in Chinese，French，Arabic，Russian，Spanish and other languages．Joining organized activities like Spittoon can be a major help for those caught up in a boring life．And it's especially important for the people who have moved to China as they need to buildnew relationships while living in a different country．8. What can we know about the Spittoon Collective?A. It was closed in 2019．B. It was set up in 2013 in Beijing．C. It's popular with literature lovers．D. It's a community just for foreigners．9. Why did Byrne start the Spittoon Collective in Baochao Hutong?A. To attract students' love of poetry．B. To expandChina's literature globally．C. To makeBeijing's hutongs famous．D. To combine poetry with the hutong．10. What effect would the Spittoon Collective have on Chinese culture?A. Beneficial．B. Negative．C. Challenging．D. Controversial．11. What is the author's attitude to the Spittoon Collective?A. Unclear．B. Intolerant．C. Doubtful．D. Favorable．DIn Japan many workers for large corporations have a guarantee of lifetime employment. They will not be laid off during recessions or when the tasks they perform are taken over by robots. To some observers, this is capitalism at its best, because workers are treated as people not things. Others see it as necessarily inefficient and believe it cannot continue if Japan is to remain competitive with foreign corporations more concerned about profits and less concerned about people.Defenders of the system argue that those who call it inefficient do not understand how it really works. In the first place not every Japanese worker has the guarantee of a lifetime job. The lifetime employment system includes only “regular employees.” Many employees do not fall into this category, including all women. All businesses have many part time and temporary employees. These workers are hired and laid off during the course of the business cycle just as employees in the United States are. These “irregular workers” make up about 10 percent of the nonagricultural work force. Additionally, Japanese firms maintain some flexibility through the extensive use of subcontractors. This practice is much more common in Japan than in the United States.The use of both subcontractors and temporary workers has increased markedly in Japan since the 1974-1975 recession. All this leads some people to argue that the Japanese system really is not all that different from the American system. During recessions Japanese corporations lay off temporary workers and give less business to subcontractors. In the United States, corporations lay off those workers with the least working experience. The difference then is probably less than the term “lifetime employment” suggests, but there still is a difference. And this difference cannot be understood without looking at the values of Japanese society. The relationship between employer and employee cannot be explained in purely contractual terms. Firms hold on to the employees and that employees stay with one firm. There are also practical reasons for not jumping from job to job. Most retirement benefits come from the employer. Changing jobs means losing these benefits. Also, teamwork is an essential part of Japanese production. Moving to a new firm means adapting to a different team and at least temporarily, lower productivity and lower pay.12. According to the passage, a woman in Japan _________.A. cannot get a lifetime jobB. is impossible to get a part time jobC. will be employed for lifeD. is among the regular workers13. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Japanese workers stay with one firm?A. They don’t want to lose their retirement benefits.B. They are not adaptable people.C. Any change of jobs will make them less paid.D. They get used to the teamwork.14. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.A. those who want to change jobs frequently in Japan should think twiceB. those who are first laid off by American corporations are temporary workersC. the use of subcontractors makes Japanese firms less flexibleD. the Japanese system is totally different from the American system15. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The extremely hard situation during recessions.B. The extensive use of subcontractors in Japan.C. The characteristics of corporations in the United States.D. The features of lifetime employment in Japan.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 platform is all about photos with short captions (说明文字). When it comes to Instagram's users, 53 percent of them are aged 18—29, but a big percentage of those may be even younger and simply list their age as 18 in order to rise the platform.Habbo HotelHabbo Hotel is a place for teens to chat.

I received financial aid, and I was able to cover the cost of enrollment, books, supplies, course materials, and additional school-related fees. But I could not afford housing, transportation, food, healthcare, or other basic necessities. The longer each semester went on, the harder the choices became.When spring semester ended that first year at college, I had good grades, but I did not have two quarters to my name. I decided that if I could afford to be a full-time student, I would need to work a full-time job. Soon, I started working at the airport as a cleaner of aircraft cabins. My first shift at the airport was a graveyard shift, where I detailed aircraft of varying sizes. During this total night shift, I have to do "deep cleaning", which meant cleaning everything and even I had to check every safety compartment and replace any missing items. This could be disgusting work.Another fact upset me a lot that working at the airport and going to school did not fit easily together. Some days I was too exhausted after a night shift to get to class. Other days I didn't have time to complete school assignments owing to a busy workday. At the end of the fall semester, I received a final warning for my attendance at my job. Once again, I was between a rock and a hard place and had to make a decision. I wanted to go to school and excel, but I also had grown accustomed to financially supporting myself.Ultimately, I chose to temporarily stop going to school and to continue working, a decision. Iwould later regret. The airline closed for various reasons. I felt stupid. I had put a lot into this job, even sacrificing my education, and now I would have neither job nor education. I'd finally learned what my grandmother meant when she once said that your job is temporary, you’re your education is forever.8．What can we learn about the author from paragraph l?A．He was financially embarrassedB．He could hardly attend college.C．Housing accounted for his biggest expenseD．His financial aid could cover his necessities.9．How does the author find the job as a cleaner of aircraft cabins?A．Rewarding B．exciting C．boring D．demanding 10．Why was the author in a dilemma between working at the airport and going to school?A．Working at the airport upset the author.B．The author was too exhausted after a night shift.C．The author received a final warning for bad attendance at school.D．The author's school schedule doesn't fit the working time properly.11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.B．The significance of schooling last forever.C．Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.D．One should be financially supported by himself.DMany people count on faster, cheaper and better technology to offer a vision of a brighter future. Nevertheless, as the 2020s dawn, optimism is in short supply. The new technologies that dominated the past decade seem to be making matters worse. Social media were supposed to bring people together, but they are better known for leaking privacy. E-commerce, ride-hailing and the gig economy (零工经济) may be convenient, but they are charged with underpaying workers, worsening inequality and blocking the streets with vehicles.Today's pessimistic mood is centered on smart phones and social media, which took off a decade ago. Yet concerns that particular technologies might be doing more harm than good have arisen before. The 1920s witnessed a criticism against cars, which had earlier been seen as an answer to the problems caused by horse-drawn vehicles which filled the streets with noise and animal waste and caused accidents. And industrialization was criticized in the 19th century by Romantics who worried about the replacement of skilled workers, the robbing of the countryside and the suffering of factory hands.However, that pessimism can be overdone. Too often people focus on the drawbacks of anew technology while taking its benefits for granted. Worries about screen time should be weighed against the much more substantial benefits of convenient communication and the instant access to information and entertainment that smartphones make possible. A further danger is that Luddite（反对技术进步者）efforts to avoid the short-term costs associated with a new technology will end up denying access to its long-term benefits-something Carl Benedikt Frey, an Oxford academic, calls a "technology trap". Fears that robots will steal people's jobs may discourage their use. Yet in the long run countries that wish to maintain their standard of living as their workforce ages and shrinks will need more robots, not fewer.Any powerful technology can be used for good or ill. It is the choices people make about it that shape the world. Perhaps the real source of anxiety is not technology itself, but growing doubts about the ability of societies to hold this debate, and come up with good answers. So as the decade turns, put aside the pessimism for a moment. To be alive in the tech-obsessed 2020sis to be among the luckiest people who have ever lived.12．According to paragraph 1, the following are the problems with the new technologies of the past decade except ．A．Leaking privacy. B．Underpaying workersC．Bringing people together D．worsening inequality13．What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 2?A．criticism against cars.B．Origin of pessimistic mood.C．Worries about the replacement of skilled workers.D，Problems caused by horse-drawn vehicles.14．What does a "technology trap" refer to?A．People worry about the drawbacks of a new technology.B．People take the benefits of a new technology for granted.C．Robots will steal people's jobs.D．Present costs of a new technology prevent its future benefits.15．What is the author's attitude to new technologies?A．subjective B．objective C．pessimistic D．critical第二节（共5小题：每小题分，满分分）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。

Once you’re a grown-up raising kids,that bag full of candy might be the scariest part of Halloween —whether it’s concern about a potential s ugar rush, worries of parenting perfectionism or diet culture anxiety.“It makes sense to be scared, because we’ve been taught to be scared,” said Oona Hanson, a parent coach based in Los Angeles.“Sugar is sort of the boogeyman in our current cultural conv ersation.”But micromanaging your child’s candy supply can backfire (适得其反)，leading to an overvaluing of sweets，binge behavior or unhealthy restriction in your child，said NatalieMokari, a registered dietitian-nutritionist in Charlotte, North Carolina.As stressful as it may be to see your child faced with more candy in one night than they would eat in an entire year, the best approach may be to lean into the joy, she added. “They are only in that age where they want to trick or treat for just a small glimpse of time —it’s so short-lived,” Mokari said. “Let them enjoy that day.”Experts aren’t suggesting kids have sugar all day every day. The American Heart Association and the 2020 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee —groups charged with providing science-based recommendations every live years — have recommended lower daily levels of sugar. Too much added sugar has been associated with cardiovascular disease and lack of essential nutrients.But a healthy relationship with food has balance, and you can keep your kids’ diets full of nutrients while allowing them lo eat sweets, Mokari said.24.Why are the grown-ups raising kids scared at Halloween?A. Because they don’t look perfect enough.B. Because their children faced too much candy.C. Because they’ve been taught to be.D. Because they don’t know the diet culture.25.Which of the following best explains “Sugar is sort of the boogeyman” underlined inParagraph 2?A. Sugar can make us scared.B.

But it’s also providing fertile ground for new and innovative (勇于创新的) players catering to local preferences. One of the latest in that group is Shanghai-based chain Manner Coffee, which, together with other similar homegrown names, are reshaping the country’s coffee drinking landscape.This year alone has seen 16 financing events in China’s coffee sector, with more than 5 billion yuan ($784 million ) pouring into the pace. Even the infamous Luckin Coffee, which was removed from the Nasdaq last year after being exposed for massive fraud (欺诈), is once again attracting investors’ attention.Dubbed (被称作) as a seller of “street coffee” priced between 10 yuan and 20 yuan per cup, equal to $ 3 or less, Manner quickly became popular among young office workers for its less expensive price and high quality.Manner and the other up-and-comers are thriving on a China coffee market that is growing at a healthy 15% per year. After expanding slowly in its first three years, Manner’s store count rose from just eight at the end of 2018 to 194 this year, with 165 in Shanghai and the rest in Beijng, Shenzhen, Chengdu and other cities. It plans to keep expanding outside of Shanghai by opening up to 100 new stores a year.Meanwhile, Starbucks reported its same-store sales in the Chinese market grew by just 19% in its financial third quarter, down sharply from 91% growth in the previous quarter, due in part to weak year-ago figures from stores affected during early stages of the pandemic in 2020.

Many possible factors that prevent children from moving further up the social ladder than their parents have already been investigated, such as financial resources, the educational system and genetics. Recently, Dr. Reto Odermatt (University of Basel) and Prof. Dr. Warn Lekfuangfu(Universidad Carlos III de Madrid) conducted a study to investigate the connection between career aspirations (抱负) in social mobilityand later life satisfaction.The basis for the study is a dataset that follows the lives of over 17,000 people in the UK who were all born in the same week in 1958, and continues to collect data to this day. Among other things, the dataset gathers together information on each individual’s childhood environment, the backgrounds of their parents, the participants’ abilities, their aspirations in their youth, their jobs and their happiness as an adult.The authors used this database to investigate how the aspirations of children and young people affect their later life. And they eventually found that the educational and career aspirations held by participants as teenagers were among the most important forecasters overall for their later success in education and careers. This indicates that ambitious career goals motivate people to invest more in their future career success.The opposite is also the case: unambitious career aspirations can be an important explanation for limited social mobility. The study showed that young people whose parents were less well educated did indeed have less ambitious career goals. “This cannot be explainedsolely by the differences in family income or in participants’ abilities. It is more the case that inequality seems to begin early on, with their parents’ aspirations for them,” reasons Odermatt. “We didn’t expect parents’ aspirations for their children to have such a strong influence.”“This reminds us that we shou ldn’t leave it entirely to parents to influence children’s career aspirations; schools can step in here,”Odermatt points out. Teaching staff could actively make teenagers aware of careers that suit their abilities. This could encourage them to look beyond their own horizons. After all, a person’s view of the world is often strongly defined by their surroundings.32.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To present previous research findings on social mobility.B.
