is blue．But it takes a strong person to smile when he or she has every reason to cry!Kiley，from Maryland，is an author，fashion model，motivational speaker and entrepreneur．Since 3 years old，her life has proven to be a journey of surgeries．She was forced to have two permanent ostomies(造口术)，causing her to have ostomy bags for the rest of her life．Carrying not one，but two ostomy bags is not something you would want anyone to go through especially your own child．As a single father，Jay is Kiley’s biggest advocate．When Kiley was 10 years old，she gave a special Father's Day gift to her father to express her gratitude，which was to dance with him at her talent show at schoo1．In the video，the little girl was smiling from ear to ear．They danced along the song．Overcomer of American Idol’s

function．The results of a study by researchers from Bochum suggest that they have fewer，but thickcr fibers in the main connecting tract between the brain hemispheres(半球)．In addition，their motor brain areas are organized more efficiently．This is the conclusion drawn by a research team headed by ra．It was published in the journal Brain and Behavior，online on 4 December 2024．The researchers were interested in drummers because their movement control far surpasses that of untrained people．“Most people can only perform fine motor tasks with one hand and have problems playing different rhythms with both hands at the same time，”explains Lara．“Drummers can do things that are impossible for untrained people．”The team intended to gain new insights into the organization of complex motor processes in the brain by identifying the changes in the brain caused by this training．The researchers tested 20 professional drummers who have played their instrument for an average of 17 years and currently practice for more than ten hours per week．They examined them using various MRI imaging techniques that provide insights into the structure and function of the brain．They then compared the data with measurcments of 24 unmusical control subjects．Both groups had to play drums to test their abilities and were then examined in the MRI scanner．Drummers presented clear differences in the front part of the corpus callosum(胼胝体)responsible for motor planning．The data indicated that the drummers had fewer but thicker fibers in this imponant connecting tract．This allows musicians to exchange information between the hemispheres more quickly than the controls．Although drummers might be good at motor coordination，they are less active in motor tasks than that of control subjects．This phenomenon indicates that a more efficient brain organization in the areas leads to less activation in professionals．8．Which has the closest meaning with the underlined word in Paragraph 2? A．Correspond with．B．Go beyond．C．Differ from．D．Fall behind．9．How did the team identify the changes in drummers’brain?A．By analyzing previous study．B．By organizing complex motor tasks．C．By testing their abilities and scanning the brains．D．By comparing amateur drummers and unmusical people．10．Which statement is true about the drummers?A．They are more active in motor tasks．B．They can play rhythms more quickly．C．They have better imagination and insights．D．They have more efficient brain organization．11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Playing drums changes the brain．B．Playing drums can be trained．C．Playing music makes you active．D．Playing music brings benefits．DVegan leather(纯素皮)，a cruelty-free and environment-friendly substitute for animal leather has long been the ultimate goal of sustainable fashion．Now，an alternative may be making the jump from the lab to cupboards，and its souse may surprise many people：the forest floor．Mycelium(菌体丝)，the fibrous roots of fungi(真菌)，is being made into durable clothes and bags with a lower carbon cost than animal’s skin or plastic，and it’s a material that won’t pile up in landfills．While products made from it aren’t available to buy yet，industry experts say the material has great potential to influence the market for animal and synthetic(合成的)leathers．And it has a unique look and feel．Leather production relies on skin from cattle and sheep，whose raising is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions．Leather processing also uses dangerous chemicals and generates large amounts of waste from treating raw skin．By contrast，fungi’s growth is effectively carbon neutral since they catch and store carbon that would otherwise be emitted or remain in the atmosphere，according to Nature．Pure and untreated fungi-1eather also breaks down easily．A number of companies are relying on consumer’s interest in a true fungi leather．Some 66％US respondents to a survey by the consulting firm Mckinscy&Company said they consider sustainability when making a luxury purchase．California-based Mekino is perhaps closest to producing a commercially available product called Reishi．“It has the same quality and artistic value as animal leather and it will be launched in partnership with top brands in the coming months．”said Sophia Wang，the company’s co-founder．One of the challengs with fungi-leather is making a uniform “mat”with consistentthickness，appearance and color，according to Nature．It’s also necessary to balance durability with biodegradability(降解) ．12．What do we know about Mycelium?A．Its products are available now．B．It is likely to gain some market share．C．It has a high carbon emission．D．It accounts for alarge part of waste．13.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?A．By making a comparison.

2022-2023学年山东省潍坊市高三(第1次)模拟考试英语试卷+答案解析(附后)
2022-2023学年山东省潍坊市高三（第1次）模拟考试英语试卷AIn the UK, the best racecourses are in all comers of the country, which means that it is accessible for all fans of the sport to see the biggest stars. So, what are the four best racecourses in the UK?CheltenhamNothing comes close to excitement levels when the Cheltenham Festival is approaching. It is the home of National Hunt racing, and every year millions of fans are glued to the horse racing on the track. It is the festival for the die-hard lovers of the sport, as the racing takes front and centre of the attention as the biggest prizes are handed out.AintreeThe race that draws the viewers to the sport is the Grand National. The race is an essential part of British life, as everyone makes a habit of watching the race annually with friends and family. It is a perfect course for visitors too, as it is situated just a short distance outside of Liverpool. There is extra emphasis on fashion when attending Aintree.AscotFor lovers of flat racing, Ascot meetings are a must. The biggest of the season is Royal Ascot, which is one of the most unique of the season as Queen Elizabeth attends it herself. This is one of the most fashionable race days on the calendar, as all visitors entering certain zones must be wearing a top hat. However, there is no better reason to get dressed up.NewmarketNewmarket is a hotbed full of racing fans, and is a must-visit for all lovers of the sport. It is the headquarters of flat racing, as the whole town is devoted to the sport. There are two racecourses, the July Course and the Rowley Mile. The final race day of the season takes place in October. Regardless of when you visit in the season, you will feast your eyes!1. What is the highlight of Cheltenham Festival?A. It offers grand prizes.B. It invites many celebrities.C. It promotes the local tourism.D. It attracts a maximum of fans.2. What do Aintree and Ascot have in common?A. They are team-centred.B. They are for flat racing.C. They are for royal family.D. They are fashion-featured.3. What can be learned about Newmarket?A. The final race is held in July.B. The citizens are crazy about the race.C. The visitors are welcome all year around.D. The racing fans are extremely professional.BYou might think of martial arts movies when you see people performing graceful moves down the river, all standing on a bamboo strip, but actually it is a form of intangible cultural heritage: bamboo drifting.Over 2,000 years ago, the high-quality wood, nanmu, in Guizhou was in great demand by the royal court more than 2,000 kilometers to the north. With no better transportation, people had to stand on one log to drift down the river. Later, local people began to compete along the way and the game of wood drifting was born. In the Qing Dynasty, wood drifting became bamboo drifting because of bamboo's lower price. Due to the skills it takes for one to master this act, bamboo drifting was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list this year.Yang Liu, a 24-year-old inheritor of bamboo drifting, learned it at 7. "Usually, the bamboo under your feet is about 9 meters long, and the bamboo in your hands is about 5 meters. If the length or diameter of the bamboo is not long enough, it will not float. Keeping our feet firmly positioned on the narrow bamboo pole is the key, so we should fight against the current by constantly changing the angle. I lost my balance and fell in the water many times while practicing. Once I fell, I gave it another try until I knew how to handle the most difficult part." She said.The love for the ancient skill keeps Yang going. In the past 17 years, she has drifted all year round, in winter cold and summer heat. As hanfu culture has been on the rise, Yang started wearing hanfu while performing, creating a more beautiful feel. In 2020, Yang began to post her videos on social media. "I'm extremely proud to get responses from viewers that bamboo drifting makes the line between what is possible and impossible unclear. It's my mission to keep it alive and known to more people," Yang Liu told China Daily.4. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?A. The martial arts movie is a form of cultural heritage.B. Nanmu was delivered to the north by land.C. Bamboo was costly in Guizhou 2,000 years ago.D. Bamboo drifting involves lots of skills.5. What is the biggest challenge in bamboo drifting?A. Finding the proper bamboo.B. Holding the bamboo firmly in hands.C. Maintaining a fixed angle.D. Keeping balance.6. What do the viewers think of bamboo drifting?A. Unbelievable.B. Impossible.C. Confusing.D. Complicated.7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Transporting Bamboo down the River.B. Intangible Cultural Heritage in Guizhou.C. Balancing with Grace.D. Yang Liu: a Creative Performer.CJobs that use both technical and creative thinking are among the fastest-growing and highest-paying ones, according to a new report from Burning Glass Technologies, a job market analytics (分析) company in Boston.It studied millions of job postings to better understand the skills companies require. What they discovered was that many want workers with experience in such new abilities as big-data (数据) gathering and analytics, or design using digital technology.Burning Glass came up with the term "hybrid jobs" to describe these kinds of positions, which require skills not normally found together. For example, these hybrid jobs might require people with skills in data science and advertising, or engineering and sales. "The jobs of the future don't involve just one skill," says Matt Sigelman, chief manager of Burning Glass.The company expects general job growth of about 10% between 2018 and 2028, but the hybrid jobs by 21%. What's more, hybrid jobs pay more than positions that call for a traditional set of skills. For example, a marketing manager mastering a database program gets paid 41% more than a traditional one, with an average yearly salary of $100, 000. Moreover, an engineer who improves her sales skills and becomes a consulting engineer for a software company can more than double her pay from $180, 000 to $400, 000.While data shows that workers who fail to update their skills will be able to findfewer jobs, people in hybrid jobs are less likely to become out of date, with only 12% possibility of being replaced by machine, compared with 42% for general jobs, says Burning Glass. Hybrid jobs are mostly not beginner roles, so they mainly go to workers with years of experience and, most importantly, more training after leaving college. That means workers, bosses and educators will have to think about how to better prepare people for these roles.8. Why did the company research into job advertisements?A. To understand the growth of best paid workers.B. To compare workers' experience with new abilities.C. To find out companies' requirements about skills.D. To tell the possible changes in future job market.9. Which of the following jobs can be hybrid?A. Data engineer.B. Machine operator.C. Marketing manager.D. Medical consultant.10. How much is a traditional marketing manager possibly paid every year?A. $180, 000.B. $71, 000.C. $41, 000.D. $10, 000.11. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. How to Get Trained for JobsB. The Skills for "Hybrid" JobsC. Future Jobs Requiring "Hybrid" SkillsD. Tips on Finding Fastest-Growing JobsDIt seemed interesting that on the eve of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's departure for France, the Indian and French governments issued similar statements on the prospects of an agreement on the purchase of the Rafale aircraft: that no single deal should be allowed to overshadow the Prime Minister's visit. Indeed, India-France relations are much bigger than any one contract; they represent the cultural affinityl (密切关系) and historic relations between two vibrant (醒目的) democracies. The items on the Prime Minister's agenda reflected the range of commonalities—from the preservation of ancient architecture to the development of Puducherry and Chandigarh as smart cities; from the construction of semi-high-speed railway lines to cooperation on a space mission to Mars; from discussing anti-terror training to tackling climate change through renewable technologies and a robust nuclear partnership. The economic aspect of the relationship has been ignored for too long. Although more than a thousand French companies have a total investment of about$20 billion in India, bilateral trade is worth just $8 billion. While all this deserved attention, it was disappointing that the Prime Minister put the spotlight back on defence ties by making a surprise announcement on the purchase of 36 Rafale aircraft as the highlight of his talks with President Francois Hollande. If the outright purchase was a crucial military necessity, it could have been discussed a few weeks before or after the visit, as a political push for the deal was secondary to the technical specifications and delivery requirements. Moreover, the deal, which involves purchasing products off the shelf abroad, detracts from Mr. Modi's "Make in India" initiative (主动性).The breakthrough on the Areva nuclear equipment deal, on the other hand, shows the positive outcome of Mr. Modi's and Mr. Hollande's political push, combined with a "Make in India" twist. As in the case of Indo-U. S. nuclear negotiations, Mr. Modi and Mr. Hollande decided to clear the logjam by splitting the problem into different silos—allowing for separate mechanisms for the pricing issues and for the technical and legal aspects. The supplementary deal involving Areva and L& T producing heavy forging metal casing for nuclear reactors is an important step in localising some of the expensive parts. During his visit to Canada, where he hopes to sign a deal for uranium supplies, Mr. Modi means to take forward his plan to increase nuclear energy production. Given this objective, it may be useful for him to round off the visit by discussing his nuclear energy plans in Germany as well, which is now winding down on nuclear power but is at the cutting edge of nuclear safety research for the European Pressurised Reactors that are being considered for India.12. Which of the following got the whole attention other than many importantdeals?A. Cooperation on a space mission to Mars.B. Anti-terror training.C. Purchase of Rafale Fighters.D. General VK Singh's remark on the Press.13. Which of the following option is on the agenda of the Prime MinisterNarendra Modi as stated above?A. Preservation of ancient architecture.B. Development of Puducherry and Chandigarh as smart cities.C. Construction of semi-high-speed railway lines.D. All of the above.14. Choose an appropriate Title for the above passage: ______.A. The Big DealB. Modi's SuccessC. Modi's tour to FranceD. Rafale and beyond15. Which of the following is the meaning of the word "logjam"?A. A long traffic jam during Prime Minister Modi's visit.B. A state of mind where you cannot decide what to do.C. A situation that seems like unable to be settled.D. A place from where The French President used to work.75 years after humans successfully put their first object into space, it's much easier to launch a satellite, but a lot messier once we're up there. (1) There are around 5000 satellites in orbit with fewer than half actually working. When a satellite stops functioning, it keeps orbiting at very high speeds, making a great threat for the useful ones.So space sustainability has become a big concern. (2) One suggested solution is to refuel the dead satellites and bring them back to life. Another concept is to use a robot with four arms to catch a dead satellite before pulling it into the atmosphere to burn it up.(3) Operating a robot from hundreds of miles away is tough. And the world hasn't yet reached a consensus (共识) on why we should clear the space junk and there are no real rules that govern how we work out there.First why should we keep things clean in orbit? We use satellites to check the weather, find our way around, and for financial purposes. Space data gives us not just beautiful pictures of the earth, but also information about climate change, natural disasters and other things that can help humans with earthbound challenges. (4)Then how can we humans think as one big community? Governments should make powerful regulations. Companies ought to engage in shared practices and scientists are expected to think up practical methods. (5) Only in this way can we keep those orbital highways open for the next generation and beyond before they are deadly blocked by space junk.A.They provide services closely related to our life.B.This is hard both technically and politically, though.C.Anyway, we should quicken the pace of clearing up.D.Space is getting increasingly crowded and dangerous.E.So we depend largely on space and it needs to be tidied up.F.Scientists are struggling for strategies to tackle the problem.G.All of these have been integrated into the solutions we really need.16.

AI recently heard a story about a famous research scientist who had made several very important medical achievements. A newspaper reporter interviewed him why he was able to be so much more creative than theaverage person. What set him so far apart from othersHe responded that it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he dropped the slippery bottle, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor—a real sea of milk!When his mother came into the kitchen，instead of shouting at him, giving him a lecture or punishing him, she said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up？”Indeed, the boy did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. How would you like to do that We could use a sponge(海绵)，a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer？” He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.His mother then said，“You know，what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can find a way to carry it without dropping it. ”The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with bothhands, he could make it. What a wonderful lesson!This famous scientist then said that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be afraid to make mistakes.21.When the mother found the kitchen floor covered with milk, she ________.A. gave the boy a lecture instead of shouting at himB. praised the boy instead of punishing himC. felt satisfied with the boy's trying to help himselfD. calmed down the boy and helped him find a way to clean the floor22.The child's experience resulted in the following BUT ________.A. offering the boy a chance to grasp the bottleB. benefiting the boy all his lifeC. helping the boy be more creativeD. making the boy realize the mistake is of value23. According to the passage, the way the scientist's mother used is ________.A. instructiveB. strictC. formalD. strangeBToday's buzz words, which include global warming and zero emissions, are causing everyday people (not just celebrities) to look for ways to reduce their carbon footprint. Based on this trend, entire districts,known as eco-communities, are being designed with green initiatives in mind. Dockside Green in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada is one of these communities. If everything goes according to plan, Dockside Green will be a self-sufficient community. The plans describe a variety of environmental features, some of which have never been seen.Builders of Dockside Green have the environment in mind with every choice they make. They ensure proper ventilation (通风), and guarantee residents 100% fresh indoor air. Interior and exterior building materials, such as paints and wood, are natural and non-toxic (无毒的). Eco-conscious builders use bamboo wherever possible because it is durable and does not require pesticides to grow.Energy efficiency is one of the top priorities in eco-communities, such as Dockside Green. Not only do energy-efficient appliances and light fixtures reduce the environmental impact of heating and hot water, they also save residents and business owners money. Dockside Green claims that home owners will use 55% less energy than average residents in Canada. Studies show that people use approximately 20% less energy when they are billed for exactly what they use. In addition, water is treated at Dockside Green and reused on site for flushing toilets. Planners of eco-communities such as Dockside Green must take the future into account. Dockside Green plans on reusing 90% of its construction waste. They also plan to continue using local suppliers forall of their transport and maintenance needs. This is a great way to reduce emissions. Finally, plans are in the works for a high-tech heating system that will use renewable biomass instead of fossil fuels.The first two stages of development at Dockside Green have already been completed, and many other plans are in the works. Other smaller eco-villages can be found around the world. Residents of these communities aim to reduce their carbon footprint and be models for sustainable living.24. The purpose of the article is to __________.A. introduce eco-communitiesB. describe Dockside Green’s plansC. advertise Dockside GreenD. illustrate sustainable living25. According to the article, what percentage of energy saving will Dockside Green residents saveA. 100%.B. 90%.C. 55%.D. 20%.26. Bamboo is an environmentally friendly choice for builders because it __________.A. provides good air circulationB. keeps pests out of housesC. is toxic substances freeD. can be used for a long time27. What will Dockside Green try to do in the futureA. To find fossil fuel alternatives.B. To develop an interior transportation system.C. To use most of construction waste again.D. To cooperate with other eco-villages.CAs you move out of your teens and into your 20s and 30s, your musical tastes start to solidify and you likely quit keeping up with popular music. Now, research has found the average age at which your music library is unlikely to change: 33.The study's author reached this conclusion by analyzing data on U. S. Spotify users and comparing it to artist popularity data from music intelligence company The Echo Nest.To determine the age at which we stop seeking out new tunes, the author gathered self-reported age data from Spotify and looked at users' " Taste Profiles," which tracks how many times listeners have streamed individual artists. These artists were then matched to their popularity rank on The Echo Nest.The average teen listens almost only to music among the Billboard, the 200 highest-ranking albums in the country, but this music represents a smaller part of their streaming as they age. In their teens, they listen to a lot of the same music, over and over again. Frank T. McAndrew, a professor of psychology at Knox College, explains that's the "mere exposure effect" at work, and it basically means, the more we're exposed to something, the more we like it.There are many reasons why a person may stop streaming the currenttop musical hits, and the author looked into one by identifying Spotify listeners with large amounts of children's music and nursery rhymes in their libraries. In other words, when users may have become parents. But the study concludes with some good news for parents: “If you're getting older and can't find yourself staying as relevant as you usedto, have nofear — just wait for your kidsto becometeenagers, and you'll get exposed to all thepopularmusic of the day once again!”28. What happens after teens grow olderA. They quit listening to music.B. Their interest in music fades.C. They change their music libraries.D. Their musical tastes become stable.29. What is the way of the researchA. Interviews.B. Analyzing data.C. Observation.D. Tracking popularity.30. How do teens develop their musical tastesA. They listen to what they like repeatedly.B. They act like their favorite popular stars.C. They experience different styles of music.D. They like high-ranking music worldwide.31. What's the good news for parents in the last paragraphA. Parents will regain their faith in music.B. Parents will influence their teens in music.C. Parents will hear their favorite music again.D. Parents will enjoy the music for teens again.DThey still bite, but new research shows lab-grown mosquitoes are fighting dengue fever — a dangerous disease that they normally would spread. Dengue infections appear to be dropping fast in communities in Indonesia, Vietnam, Brazil and Australia that are filled with the specially grown mosquitoes.Researchers first injected （注射）mosquito eggs with Wolbachia bacteria that's common in insects and harmless to people in a lab. Infected females then pass the bacteria on through their eggs. Releasing enough Wolbachia carriers, both the females that bite and the males that don't, allows mating（交配）to spread the bacteria through a local mosquito population.Rather than using chemicals to wipe out pests, “this is really about transforming the mosquito," said Cameron Simmons of the nonprofit World Mosquito Program, which is conducting the research.The first success came from Australia. Mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia were released in parts of North Queensland starting in 2011, and gradually spread through the local mosquito population. Dengue is spread when a mosquito bites someone who is infected, and then bites another person, but somehow Wolbachia blocks that — and local spread has nearly disappeared in those North Queensland Communities,Simmons said.The studies are continuing in other countries. But the findings, presented at a meeting of the American Society for Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, suggest it's possible to turn at least some mosquitoes from a public health threat into annoying biters.The work marks “exciting progress," said Michigan State University professor Zhiyong Xi, who wasn't involved with the project but has long studied how Wolbachia can turn mosquitoes against themselves.More research is needed, specialists cautioned. "The results are pretty exciting — strong levels of reductions — but there clearly are going to be things to be learned from the areas where the reductions are not as great," said Penn State University professor Elizabeth McGraw.32. What can we learn about the lab-grown mosquitoesA. They lose the ability to bite people.B. They become harmful to human beings.C. They carry dangerous Wolbachia bacteria.D. They spread Wolbachia bacteria by mating.33. What does the underlined word "that" refer to in Paragraph 4A. The bite from a mosquito.B. The local community.C. The spread of Dengue.D. The infected person.34. What do the last two paragraphs suggestA. This research proves a complete success.B. Scientists agree on this research.C. There is still room for improvement.D. Mosquitoes turn themselves against harmful ones.35. What is the best title for the textA. Bacteria- infected Mosquitoes Bite Deadly Dengue.B. Transform Mosquitoes into Annoying BitersC. Fight against Mosquitoes with WolbachiaD. Harmless Mosquitoes Are on Their Way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。

The aim is simple—to help ease the loneliness and repair social networks.Sheila, 77, a retired teacher, lived alone. She has been receiving calls from Rianne, a volunteer, for over two months."Talking to Rianne is something I really look forward to —a breathof fresh air. We talk about everything—theatre, her work, books we've read...Listening to someone else's life enriches you and gives you something positive to focus on.""At the beginning, I had no expectation of how the phone callswould go, but it's wonderful that it's led to a genuine friendship.Rianne helps me a lot..."Are you ready to add a little sunshine to a senior's life?The Sunshine Call Program initially links a volunteer with an isolate(独居的) senior for a daily call. When comfortable the volunteer introduces a second senior to the call. Then another, until there are four seniors to one volunteer on what is essentially a conference call. Without having to leave the house, you will help the seniors meet and make new friends. They will then exchange phone numbers to chat on their own and reduce their isolation.What are the volunteer qualifications?Volunteers must have access to the Internet and be willing to be trained on the use of a chat app. COA will provide all supplies required to make the calls. Besides, volunteers must agree to participate in monthly meetings with other volunteers and guest speakers. All volunteers must be willing to provide a recent Criminal Record Check, the cost of which will be borne by COA. And the most important volunteer qualification is a sense of caring and a desire to help seniors in the community!If you wish to volunteer with our Sunshine Call program, never hesitate! Just CLICK HERE to fill out the application form.12. Why does the passage mention Sheila's experience?A. To show her lonelinessB. To share a sweet memory.C. To stress the value of COA.D.

To advertise for new volunteers for COA.DThis was the first communication that had come from, her aunt in Jessie's lifetime. "I think your aunt has forgiven me at last," her father said as he passed the letter across the table.Jessie looked first at the autograph(签名). It seemed strange to see her own name there. There was a likeness between her aunt's autograph and her own, a hint of the same decisiveness and precision. If Jessie had been educated fifty years earlier, she might have written her name in just that manner."You're very like her in some ways," her father said, as she still stared at the autograph."I should think you must almost have forgotten what Aunt Jessie was like, dear," she said, "How many years is it since you last saw her?""More than forty," her father said. "We disagreed. We invariably disagreed. Jessie always prided herself on being so modern. She read Darwin and things like that. Altogether beyond me, I admit.""And so it seems that she wants to see me." Jessie straightened her shoulders and lifted her head. She was excited at the thought of meeting this mythical aunt whom she had so often heard about. Sometimes she had wondered if the personality of thisremarkable relative had not been a figment(虚构) of her father's imagination.But this letter of hers that now lay on the breakfast table was admirable in character. There was something of intolerance expressed in its tone. It was just like what her father had told her.Mr. Deane came out of his past memories with a sigh."Yes, yes; she wants to see you, my dear," he said. "I've heard she has set up a school and helped many youngsters...I think you had better accept this invitation to say with her. If she took a fancy to you, you could get a better education..."He sighed again, and Jessie knew that for the hundredth time he was regretting his own past weakness...16. How was the relationship between Jessie's father and her aunt?A. It remained very close over the years.B. It was broken when they were young.C. It got tenser due to a misunderstanding.D. It was uneasy for their financial differences.17. From the passage, we know Jessie was ______.A. eager to meet her auntB. cautious about her aunt's invitationC. angry with her aunt for ignoring her familyD. puzzled by her aunt's sudden interest in her18. What can we learn from the passage?A. Jessie's aunt promised to offer her better education.B. Jessie's aunt's personality seemed to change a lot.C. Jessie's and her aunt were different in personality.D. Jessie's father felt sorry for what he had done.EMany people would answer the question of what makes us human by insisting that we are cultural beings. There is no doubt that we are. But one definition of culture is the totality of traditions acquired in a community by social learning from other individuals, and many animal species have traditions. Can we then say that some animals are cultural beings too?One approach to study culture in animals is the so-called Method of Exclusion(排除), in which scientists investigate behavioral variations across populations of one species. In a famous study, scientists learned that chimpanzee(黑猩猩) behaviors were socially passed on as they were present at some sites but not at others, despitehaving same ecological settings. For example, chimpanzees in Tai National Park in Ivory Coast are well-known for their nut-cracking skills. Chimpanzees in Gombe National Park in Tanzania, on the other hand, do not crack nuts, although nuts exist in their environment too.However, when applying the Method of Exclusion, one has to be very careful. There are other factors that could also explain the pattern of behavioral variation. For example, some of the chimpanzee techniques scientists evaluated occur in only one of the three subspecies. So it's quite possible that these behaviors also have an innate component. This would mean that one chimpanzee subspecies uses a new technique not out of cultural tradition, but because the behavior is fixed to specific genes. Another factor that has to be excluded is of course the environment. Chimpanzees in Mahale do not fish algae(水藻), simply because algae does not exist there.But when we exclude all the variations that can be explained by genes or environment, we still find that animals do show cultural variations. Does that mean there is no real difference between them and us after all? Not exactly. There is a fundamental difference between human and animal culture. Only humans can build culturally on what generations before us have learned. This is called "cumulative culture". We don't have to keep reinventing the wheel. This is called the "ratchet(棘轮) effect". Like a ratchet that can be turned forward but not back, people's cultural techniques evolve.It is likely that behaviors we see today in chimpanzee cultures could be invented over and over again by individual animals themselves. In contrast, a child born today would not be able to invent a computer without the knowledge of many past generations.19. Why does the author mention the example of the chimpanzees in two parksin Paragraph 2?A. To prove that culture does exist in animals.B. To justify the uniqueness of the research method.C. To compare how chimpanzees behave in different parks.D. To stress the importance of environment in studying culture.20. What does the underlined word "innate" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Advanced.B. Inborn.C. Adaptive.D. Intelligent.21. What can we learn from the passage?A. Cumulative culture is what sets humans apart from animals.B. Culture in animals is as worthy to be valued as human culture.C. Animals donˈt have the ability to invent behaviors in a community.D. The "ratchet effect" decides if humans can build on past experiences.FWhen Elinor Lobel was 16, a "smart" insulin(胰岛素) pump was attached to her body. Powered by AI, it tracks her glucose levels and administers the right dose of insulin at the right time to keep her healthy. It is one of the new ways that data and AI can help improve lives.Books that criticize the dark side of data are plentiful. They generally suggest there is much more to fear than fete in the algorithmic(算法的) age.But the intellectual tide may be turning. One of the most persuasive supporters of a more balanced view is Elinor Lobel's mother, Orly, a law professor. In The Equality Machine she acknowledges AI's capacity to produce harmful results. But she shows how, in the right hands, it can also be used to fight inequality and discrimination.A principle of privacy rules is "minimization": collect and keep as little information as possible, especially in areas such as race and Render. Ms Lobel flips the script, showing how in hiring, pay and the legal system, knowing such characteristics leads to fairer outcomes.Ms Lobel's call to use more, not less, personal information challengesdata-privacy orthodoxy(正统观念). But she insists that "tracking difference is key to detecting unfairness." She advocates a loosening of privacy rules to provide more transparency(透明) over algorithmic decisions.The problems with algorithmic formulae(公式) are tackled in depth in Escape from Model Land by Erica Thompson of the School of Economics. These statistical models are the backbone of big data and AI. Yet a perfect model will always be beyond reach. "All models are wrong," runs a wise saying. "Some are useful."Ms Thompson focuses on a challenge she calls the Hawkmoth Effect. In the better known Butterfly Effect, a serviceable model, in the prediction of climate change, becomes less reliable over time because of the complexity of what it is simulating(模拟), or because of inaccuracies in the original data. In the Hawkmoth Effect, by contrast, the model itself is flawed; it might fail to take full account of the interplay between humidity, wind and temperature.The author calls on data geeks to improve their solutions to real-world issues, not merely refine their formulae—in other words, to escape from model land. "We do not need to have the best possible answer," she writes, "only a reasonable one."Both these books exhibit a healthy realism about data, algorithms and their limitations. Both recognize that making progress involves accepting limitations, whether in law or coding. As Ms Lobel puts it: "It's always better to light a candle than to curse the darkness."22. Ms Lobel intends to convey that _______.A. minimization is a good privacy rule to go byB. algorithms are currently challenged by data privacyC. employing more personal data should be encouragedD. identifying algorithms' problems leads to better outcomes23. What can we learn about "Hawkmoth Effect"?A. It develops from Butterfly Effect.B. It emphasizes accuracy of original data.C. It enjoys popularity in climate research field.D. It is mentioned to show the model can be faulty.24. Which of the following does the writer probably agree?A. Using algorithms to detect differences is hard.B. The application of data and algorithms is limited.C. The reliability of data should be attached importance to.D. Improving algorithms involves accepting its imperfection.25. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. The Algorithm's ProspectB. The Algorithm's MercyC. The Algorithm's ComplexityD. The Algorithm's RecognitionExpressive writing or journaling is one way to help you heal from trauma(创伤). (1) It can help you process what you've been through and assist you as you envision a path forward.Why does a writing intervention work? (2) In fact, narrating the story of an ongoing anxiety "frees up" cognitive resources. When you write down theemotions associated with a traumatic experience, you may be changing the way it is organized in the brain. You are then able to detach from the emotion,making it easier for you to talk about and process the event.However, for most people, the thought of acknowledging emotions and admitting that there's something wrong with us is difficult. This is because expressing emotions can bring up feelings of guilt and shame. (3) That is what sets journaling apart. This is between you and your journal—you don't have to share it with anyone unless, of course, you choose to.If you're interested in trying out writing as a tool for healing, start your writing by setting a timer for ten minutes.

If you've spent any time on social media sites, you've probably noticed it: parents share news, photos, and other information about their children. This phenomenon is called "sharenting", a combination of the words "sharing" and "parenting".Much of the research on sharenting focuses on why parents choose to share online. Studies found that for parents of infants(婴儿), sharenting can help ease the social isolation that comes with this period in their children's lives. Parents of teenagers also share information about their kids on social media. Research has shown their motivations include communicating their pride in their children's accomplishments and informing friends and family about their kids' lives.However, when parents post about their children on social media with high frequency, the phenomenon of "oversharenting" occurs, which can be a great cause for concern. For example, if parents share too much information that their children don't want disclosed, it may lead them to with old information about their lives from their parents so they can better control what can and can't be posted about them.Additionally, the cute photos or funny observations parents share online about their children could become a problem when their kids get older. In particular, colleges and employers are increasingly checking applicants' online activity, and as a result, information posted by parents could become a source of embarrassment or affect a potential college's or employer's assessment of their child.Sharing information has never been faster than in the digital age. While it can be very convenient to post milestones of their children, it's important for parents to ensure they're sharening responsibly. After all, it's not just a picture, it's the child and their digital footprint.(1) According to the passage, what is sharenting?_________________________________________________(2) Why do parents of infants choose to share online?_____________________________________________________(3) Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.When parents oversharent, their children may make up information about their lives to better control what can and can't be posted about them.____________________________________________________________________________ _(4) Besides what's mentioned in the passage, what else can you do if your parents oversharent?

2023届四川省石室中学高三高考适应性模拟检测英语试题(一)
2023届四川省石室中学高三高考适应性模拟检测英语试题（一）学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解We are all aware of the effect greenhouse gas emissions (排放) is having on our planet and the efforts needed to protect the earth. Most of us are doing our bit to reduce our influence or the environment, but despite our collective effort, are we doing enough to achieve net zero by 2050?Net zero means not adding to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Many countries are doing their bit by changing how they produce and use power to cut down carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) output. And they announced what further steps they were going to take at the recent COP26 summit in Glasgow (格拉斯哥气候峰会).In the UK, the government has been setting out its plans to achieve net zero by 2050. It’s recently announced an end date for the sale of gas boilers, which are used for heating homes. The idea is to replace them with heat pumps. It’s offering homeowners up to £5, 000 to replace them. Another plan in the UK is a big push towards electric cars. More charging points are to be added in streets, and no new petrol cars will be sold by 2030.But not all emissions can be reduced to zero, so there should be other ways to make up for it. One way to do this is to plant thousands of trees, which are good at taking in carbon dioxide. The UK government has promised to plant 30, 000 hectares of trees a year by 2025. Other ideas can work too, but what’s certain is this will cost money. The CBI’s (英国工业联合会) Tom Thackray told the BBC, “those costs have to be weighed up against the cost of doing nothing.”Whether the UK, or anyone else, reaches net zero is yet to be seen. And there’s some doubt about how this can be accurately measured anyway. But it’s generally recognised that a global effort is needed to protect the environment. Therefore, net zero targets only make sense if every other country is moving in the same direction.1．It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A．people are doing enough to reduce the amount of green gasB．gas boilers must be replaced by the end of 2030 in the UKC．Tom Thackray believed the UK government is wasting moneyD．it might be difficult to judge whether the UK reaches net zero2．What’s the writer’s attitude towards net zero targets?A．Negative.B．Subjective.C．Objective.D．Supportive. 3．What’s the best title for the passage?A．Achieving Net Zero Target Together B．Protecting the Environment C．Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions D．Planting More Trees TogetherIf you are a fan of medical films, then you will know there are emergency helicopter services that will take badly injured patients to hospitals long distances away. You probably also know that in these films most ambulances (救护车) are on wheels and go across city streets where there are fewer traffic jams than in real life.But now, Israel’s Urban Aeronautics, announced that it made an agreement to work with Hatzolah Air to produce and develop its CityHawk aircraft as an emergency medical service. The CityHawk is small and can fly anywhere and land anywhere, making it able to work in cities above the traffic jam. It has no wings outside and can work even in bad weather conditions.“We are excited to work with Hatzolah Air on the development of our CityHawk vehicle,” said Rafi Yoeli, CEO of Urban Aeronautics. “Its small size will enable it to land in the middle of a busy city street, making it a perfect fit for medical tasks by greatly reducing the time it takes to arrive on-scene, treat and transport sick or injured patients to medical facilities.”“One of Hatzolah’s most important goals is to be somewhere within minutes. Unlike helicopters, we can land anywhere within minutes,” Yoeli said. “We will be able to improve the care of patients. They want to be equipped with the best aircraft.” Hatzolah Air’s president Eli Rowe said that he foresees (预测) the possible need for 800 CityHawks since it is asix-passenger vehicle that can carry a pilot, a patient and a team of professionals.Urban Aeronautics is working on certification (认证) for emergency use of its CityHawk aircraft. The development of the flying ambulance is expected to take up to five years but a model will be ready sooner. A flying ambulance may be coming to a city near you soon. 4．What is the function of the first paragraph?A．To give an example of medical rescue.B．To lead to the topic of the flying ambulance.C．To show the future market for aircraft medical service.D．To tell the advantages of emergency medical helicopters.5．What do we know about the CityHawk?A．It makes medical tasks in cities more convenient.B．It will take the place of ambulances on city roads.C．It is difficult to operate in bad weather conditions.D．It can carry enough medical supplies immediately.6．What’s Rafi Yoeli’s attitude towards the development of the CityHawk?A．Worried.B．Doubtful.C．Positive.D．Surprised. 7．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．The CityHawk has got certification from the government.B．The CityHawk faces great difficulties to become a reality.C．The CityHawk draws great attention of hospitals.D．The CityHawk will come into use in the near future.The city of Marquette in Michigan is closing a section of a road to vehicular traffic every night to protect migrating salamanders (蝾螈). From 8 p. m. to 8 a. m. daily until April 15 or until the migration is completed, a section of Peter White Drive in Presque Isle Park will be closed, the city announced.“Protecting the blue-spotted salamanders’ migration is vital, as they are an indicator species, informing us about the health of our environment,” said Kathleen Henry, Superior Watershed Partnership (SWP) special projects coordinator (协调员) and education specialist. The salamanders spend the cold winter under-ground. Then every spring, they make their way to the water where they lay eggs.It was in 2018 that Eli Bieri, a former Northern Michigan University student, noticed vehicles were killing hundreds of these migrating salamanders. “We would see thousands and thousands of salamanders crossing the street in just one night,” Bieri told the Detroit Free Press. “It was really amazing — until we see cars pass by and squish salamanders. That really troubled me — it kept me awake at night.” He enlisted the help of the SWP, who reached out to Marquette city officials. Last spring they got the relevant stretch of road within the park temporary closed to evening and overnight vehicular traffic.In 2019, before the closure, they found 429 salamander carcasses (尸体) in the road. Last year, they counted only 3 carcasses. With that success demonstrated, city officials aredoing the same this year. “The goal is to apply our science to wildlife management,” Bieri said. “To be able to see in-person the science applied to successful management practices was very satisfying.”8．What’s the significance of protecting the salamanders?A．Salamanders can offer great financial benefits to the governments.B．Protecting salamanders can greatly reduce traffic accidents at night. C．Salamanders are a great sign for our environment’s conditions.D．Salamanders are main food for other living creatures near the sea.9．What does the underlined word “squish” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Avoid.B．Kill.C．Feed.D．Ignore. 10．Which word can be used to describe the effect of protecting measure? A．Successful.B．Concerning.C．Insufficient.D．Ridiculous. 11．What is a suitable title for the text?A．What Salamanders Mean to UsB．A Proper Way to Protect Our EarthC．Ways to Protect SalamandersD．A 12-Hour Closure for WildlifeA study by a team of Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) psychologists has found a link between extraverts (外向的人) and their word choices. The finding highlights the need for stronger linguistic indicators to be developed for use in online personality prediction tools, which are being rapidly adopted by companies to improve digital marketing strategies.Today, marketing companies use predictive algorithms (算法) to help them forecast what consumers want based on their online behaviors. For example, an extravert consumer might be attracted to marketing messages that match their personality, and retail brands could then choose to target such consumers by using more extraverted and creative language to advertise their products. However, personality prediction tools available today that are used by marketing firms are not entirely accurate due to a lack of theoretically sound designs. This may lead to a weakness affecting the performance of the machine learning algorithms. This begs the question—how should we create robust and accurate personality predictions?The study found a correlation between extraverts and their tendency to use certaincategories of words. The results showed a small strength of relationship between extraversion and the use of “positive emotion words” and “social process words.”Positive emotion words are defined as words that describe a pleasant emotional state, such as “love”, ”happy”, or “blessed”, or that indicate positivity or optimism, such as “beautiful” or “nice”. Social process words include words containing personal pronouns except “I”, and words showing social intentions, such as “meet”, “share” and “talk”.Moving forward, the NTU research team will investigate the relationship between extraversion and other word categories. They hope their work will provide clarity on the types of words that can help guide the development of more accurate machine learning tools for personality prediction.12．We learn from the passage the findings of the study can be used to help ______. A．observe consumers’ behaviorB．forecast the need of companiesC．create practical personality predictionsD．find correlation between extraverts and ads13．What does the underlined word “robust” mean in Paragraph 2?A．Renewable.B．Forceful.C．Doubtful.D．Variable. 14．Which of the following words may belong to extraverts’ commonly used vocabulary? A．Dispute.B．Interaction.C．Disaster.D．Loneliness. 15．What does the last paragraph focus on?A．The direction of future research.B．The theoretical basis of the study.C．The strength of business strategies.D．The development of machine learning tools.二、七选五There is much debate nowadays as to what makes up a healthy diet.____16____However, there is increasing evidence that the real driver of poor health is not so much fatty food, but it is so much sugar. Heart disease is the number one killer of Americans. And in America, people who receive 25% of their daily calories or more through sugar are twice as likely to die from heart disease than people who receive less than 10% a day (Journalof the American Medical Association, 2021). This is true regardless of how healthy the rest of their diet might be. Put it more simply, while people continue to argue over whether or not fatty food is dangerous, we already know that sugar is a killer.____17____The average American gets 1/3 of his or her sugar through sweet drinks alone. The American Heart Association recommends that we limit ourselves to less than100-150 calories a day from sugar, which is less than what is usually contained in one can of sweet drink or in a single candy bar. ____18____You have to stop having sweet drinks altogether.Beyond this, you can keep healthy by consuming different categories of fresh foods, especially fruit and vegetables, which are full of vitamins and fibre, rather than processed foods. ____19____They have higher quantities of sugar, salt, and fat than fresh ingredients (原料). Besides this, it is also important to have some meat, beans, or dairy products in your diet, as they provide the necessary protein for strong bones and muscle growth. As with everything in life, moderation (适度) is key. The ideal diet is a balanced one，without too much or too little of any one thing.Finally, a fundamental key to healthy eating is to eat slowly. It takes about twenty minutes from the time when you start eating for your brain to tell your body that you are full. What this means is that people who chew too quickly end up eating too much food because they still feel hungry. ____20____It will also allow you to enjoy your food more. A．Processed foods often contain less nutrition.B．Don’t let food become the centre of your life.C．Eating a large amount of food each time is not necessary.D．Much of this extra sugar comes from sweets and sweet drinks.E．Eating slowly also allows your body to digest your food better.F．In other words, if you want to be healthy, you have to cut down on desserts.G．For example, scientists have insisted for years that a big enemy of health is fatty food.三、完形填空Years ago, my sixth grade teacher had us write letters to our heroes. ___21___ others wrote to Nelson Mandela or Hillary Clinton, I wrote to Jennifer Cihi, a popular singer. We didn’t actually ___22___ the letters, so mine was ___23___ in my drawer.In that ___24___ letter, I promised to devote my first ___25___ to Jennifer.

And then when it’s suddenly gone, the magic is gone.” Bachman said. ⑱He bought the guitar as a teenager in the early 1960s with $400 saved up from washing cars and babysitting. He had long admired the instrument, spending hours staring at it in a shop window with his friend and fellow musician Neil Young. Over the decades, Bachman hunted for his guitar. ⑲A Canadian fan, William Long, decided to help withthe search in 2020. “Yeah, I’m a detective,” Long said. “I was confident I was going to find it.” Finally he found that a Japanese musician called Takeshi played Bachman’s beloved guitar in a video. ⑳Takeshi bought Bachman’s guitar in 2014 for around 850,000 yen ($6,300). Long alerted Bachman to his discovery, and the musicians arranged to meet in Tokyo to exchange Bachman’s original guitar with another of the same type, also made in 1957.。
