新高考高一英语时文阅读精编（含中文翻译及答案解析）
A
Coronavirus survivors have spoken out about what it is like to contract the disease, which has infected more than 132,000 worldwide and killed over 5,000 people.
As fears over the coronavirus pandemic spread, there’s one question that comes up again and again — how bad is it really? The severity of symptoms can vary dramatically, from a mild sniffle to a hellish feeling of suffocation.
Here are some of the coronavirus patients' stories:
Jaimuay Sae-ung, 73
Jaimuay Sae-ung was the first Thai national to contract coronavirus, becoming ill in December. She experienced a fever and a bad cough, then developed pneumonia (肺炎) while in quarantine. After 10 days, Jaimuay’s condition had improved and she was eventually discharged following two negative test results.
Carl Goldman, 67
Carl Goldman, from Santa Clarita in California, was on the Diamond Princess cruise ship and later tested positive for coronavirus. He said the virus “hasn't been that bad”. He developed a fever and “a bit of a cough” during his flight back to America and was quarantined on his return. He said: “The sickest I've ever been was when I had bronchitis (支气管炎) several years ago. This has been much easier — no chills, no body aches. I breathe easily and I don't have a stuffy nose. “My chest feels tight and I have coughing spells. If I had been at home with similar symptoms, I probably would have gone to work as usual.” After having the illness for one month, Carl now has no symptoms, but is still testing positive.
Marc Thibault, 48
Teacher Marc, from Rhode Island, in the US, led a school field trip to Italy, France and Spain last month and was admitted to hospital on February 27, five days after he returned home. A week later he was diagnosed with coronavirus. He said the illness had hit him “like a hurricane”. Marc, a school vice principal, said: “You feel like you're asphyxiating, and you’re panicking because you can’t breathe. He added that he felt “one inch from death” and remains in intensive care.
1. How much are the symptoms of the three coronavirus patients alike?
A. Very similar.
B. Lightly different.
C. Extremely different.
D. Exactly Same.
2. Which can explain the underlined word “discharged” correctly?
A. Isolated.
B. Permitted.
C. Dismissed.
D. Released.
3. Which statement is Right about the three people?
A. Jaimuay was still in hospital though she has got negative test results.
B. Carl Goldman has got infected on the Diamond Princess cruise ship.
C. The school teacher Marc and his students have got infected in Italy.
D. Carl Goldman has no symptoms and has been tested negative now.
4. What does the author intend to show by writing the passage?
A. The serious influence coronavirus has had
B. Ways to prevent oneself from being infected
C. Thoughts of people about the coronavirus
D. The feelings of some infected people
B
The Serious Reason You Should Never Store Potatoes in the Fridge It could put your health at risk.
You’ve just come back from the farmer’s market or the grocery store with a big sack①of potatoes. But you’re not going to use them all at once, so the best way to keep them fresh is to store them in the fridge, right?
Not so fast. When it comes to potatoes, sticking them in the refrigerator could increase your risk of cancer. Why? Here’s the chemistry behind it:
The colder temperature of a refrigerator can convert②the starch (淀粉) in potatoes into sugar.
Then, when you bake or fry the potatoes at temperatures above 250oF, those sugars combine with the amino acid asparagine (天冬酰胺氨基酸) and produce a chemical called acrylamide (丙烯酰胺), according to the American Cancer Society.
Acrylamide is a chemical that’s used to make paper, dyes, and plastics, as well as to treat drinking water and sewage③. The main way people are exposed to acrylamide is through smoking, but it’s also found in foods such as French fries and potato chips, crackers, bread, cookies, cereals, and coffee.
So how dangerous is acrylamide? Research in mice has shown that the chemical increased

新高考英语时文阅读高三专版（含答案解析及全文翻译） A The life of FM-2030, a transhumanist (超人文主义者) who believed humans will be able to end natural death in the future using technology, is explored in a new documentary. The film, titled‘2030’, was released late last month and is available across multiple streaming platforms. It was made by British filmmaker Johnny Boston who interviewed a range of FM-2030’s acquaintances and scientific experts. Transhumanists believe humans can and should use emerging future technology to greatly enhance their natural abilities. These technologies could include robotics, AI, gene therapy preventing the ageing process. This could radically change what it means to be a member of our species. FM-2030 was born in Brussels in 1930 named Fereidoun M. Esfandiary. The son of an Iranian diplomat, he later changed his legal name to mark his belief that by 2030 we will be ageless and everyone will have an excellent chance to live forever. FM-2030 wrote a number of books around life extension and transhumanist topics, and is widely regarded as one of the founding fathers of the modern transhumanist movement. After his death in 2000, FM-2030’s body was placed in cryonic suspension in Arizona. Mr Boston commented: “I met FM-2030 and that was his legal name when I was about 11 or 12 years old. He’d come to London with his partner at the time and they stayed with us. This was in the early 80s when he had these really off the wall ideas that we were going to live on indefinitely and that there was going to be a much more progressive politics. He talked about we were going to communicate brain to brain. There was going to be a machine that you could put in various characteristics and it was going to print stuff.” Mr Boston went on to produce a number of videos outlining FM-2030’s ideas. He did a series of films called the future of democracy that came out of talks that FM had done. He said,“FM really talks about what the future holds in terms of how we govern ourselves. He thinks we’ve got to useAI.” 1. What will happen in the future according to transhumanists? A. Humans will die in a natural state. B. Humans’life span will remain limited. C. Humans will not need language any longer. D. Humans’abilities will be largely improved by technologies. 2. Why did Fereidoun M. Esfandiary change his name to FM-2030? A. Because his father forced him to do so. B. Because he didn’t like his former name at all. C. Because he wanted to flag his transhumanist faith. D. Because he thought human would end natural death in 2030. 3. What does the underlined phrase “off the wall”in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Dull. B.Ambiguous. C. Ridiculous. D. Upset. 4. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. The Uncertain Future. B. The Film Called 2030. C. The Ideas of Transhumanists.

英语时文阅读第一篇 A ban on setting off firecrackers? XINHUA 话题：“过年要不要燃放烟花爆竹”这个讨论从年前争论到年后，从减少环卫工人负担到降低空气污染，反对者的声音高涨。但也有人认为，作为传统节日活动，应该燃放烟花爆竹。你怎么看 Wang Xingyue, 14, from Shanghai: I don’t think we should set off firecrackers (爆竹) during holidays. It is really noisy. Some people fire them during midnight. People around cannot sleep well. Besides, it brings air pollution (污染) and lots of rubbish. Most people do not clean the rubbish after they set off firecrackers. So I think there is no need to set them off anymore during holidays. Liu Ran, 14, from Shandong: Setting off firecrackers is a tradition during Chinese festivals. They set them off to celebrate or wish a happy new year. The ceremony (仪式) is very important in Chinese people’s lives. And it also reminds (提醒) us of one of the four great inventions (发明) of China, gunpowder (火药). We cannot give it up. It is good to have this ceremony during holidays. Do you agree with me Lin Yisong, 15, from Zhejiang: I think we should control (控制) the setting off of firecrackers. During holidays, the government could get people together in a place. They can set off some firecrackers or fireworks and people can watch. It is safer to do this and people can also enjoy their holiday tradition. Zhang Qi, 14, from Guangxi: Firecrackers are dangerous and bad for the air. But it is really an important tradition in Chinese festivals. So I think we can use something else to replace (代替) them. For example, we can use LED fireworks instead. It is also beautiful and attractive. And it is much safer. Even kids can play with them. Li Qing, 14, from Jiangsu:

新高考赢在阅读高二英语时文阅读专版（含原文翻译及答案解析） A Josh Gad's Olaf showed insanely hot skills singing "Unmeltable Me" for "Frozen II". But the hilarious (欢闹的) tune never made it into the animated hit: It was cut from the movie after his vocals were recorded and storyboards had been drawn up. The missing: “Unmeltable Me”is revealed now at https://www.360docs.net/doc/f615483885.html,, ahead of the home release of “Frozen II”, which features the deleted scene as an extra. The ditty was the first song written for the sequel. The new song features Gad's Olaf singing style, playing harpsichord (羽管键琴) accompaniment. The instrument was requested by directors for comedic reasons. The harpsichord arrangement made it funny and different. The filmmakers originally wanted “Unmeltable Me”to explain an important story point –why Olaf no longer needed the magical “flurry”cloud Elsa had created at the end of "Frozen" to keep the snowman from melting in warm weather. Creating the flurry effect was so difficult for the animators that the directors decided Elsa would have perfected a permafrost coating for Olaf by the second movie. The scene features Olaf doing just about everything to show off his new permafrost coating, from sticking a lit candle into his head to placing his head in a Sterno-heated buffet tray. Olaf's audience in the scene is a group of dignitaries who have traveled to Arendelle from around the world to meet the powerful Elsa at a state dinner. Elsa and Anna are held up, so Olaf fills time entertaining the assembled guests with the song. Sadly, “Unmeltable Me”was cut before it could be fully animated. Gad’s Olaf still received his big song in “Frozen 2”singing “When IAm Older”happily.“Unmeltable Me' is definitely fun, but that’s show business,”says Lopez, who especially loves how Olaf ends the song on an unusual high note. 1. What can we learn from the song “Unmeltable Me”in the first paragraph? A. The song “Unmeltable Me”was sung by Elsa. B. The song can make this movie into a animated hit. C. The song was created for the movie. D. The song was recorded in the movie at last. 2. What does the underlined word “revealed”in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Show. B. Hide. C. Create. D. Delete. 3. What is the purpose of using permafrost coating? A. To entertain the audience. B. To prevent Olaf from melting. C. To make the movie funny. D. To explain show business. 4. What can we know from the passage? A. This movie is directed by Josh Gad. B. Olaf likes his new permafrost coating. C. Josh Gad’s attitude is passive because his song was cut from the movie. D. The scene of the song is not mentioned in the article. B Google’s Search Engine Can Recommend Your Favorite Shows and Movies

新高考高一英语时文阅读精编(含答案解析)
新高考高一英语时文阅读精编（含答案解析） A Coronavirus (冠状病毒) has infected more than 170,000 people across the world, and the virus is expected to peak in the UK in the coming weeks. Professor Chris Whitty said on March 12 that he expects the UK would reach the peak of its coronavirus outbreak in about 10 to 14 weeks. The NHS is currently advising you to self-isolate for seven days if you have symptoms of coronavirus, like a high temperature, or a new continuous cough. If you have travelled to a badly affected area, or have been in contact with someone with the disease, you will also need to self-isolate. Staying at home will help to control the spread of the virus. When you self-isolate, you need to stay away from public places. This means you cannot take your pets out for walks in public places. With more time indoors, it’s also a good idea to plan how you can keep your pet occupied while self-isolating. If you’ve been diagnosed with coronavirus, you should inform your local health protection team that there is a pet in the household. They will touch with the relevant animal health authorities. If your pet shows signs of ill health, please do not take them to the vet. Contact your local health protection team for advice. The RSPCA have also issued tips for keeping your pets and family safe while self-isolating. If you haven’t tested positive or been asked to self-isolate then continue to interact with your pets as normal but adopt good hygiene (卫生) practices including washing hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after touching them, their food, toys and bedding. Avoid being kissed or licked and sharing food with your pet. Ensure you have extra supplies of pet food and medication in case of self-isolation. Speak to your vet or doctor for more advice. 1. Which situation does not require self-isolation during the coronavirus? A. Being bitten by pet animals. B. Arriving in an affected area. C. Contacting with confirmed case. D. Having a fever for a few days. 2. If you are a patient with coronavirus, what might happen to your pet according to Para. 3? A. Being taken to the vet. B. Being given to friends. C. Staying with you.
