丰台区2019～2020学年度第一学期期末练习 高三英语 第一部分 知识运用（共两节，45分）‎ 第一节 语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分）‎ A 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。‎ I never believed in lucky coins. But one day as I was mowing the lawn (修剪草坪), I noticed a shiny object some five yards away. I stopped the machine to go and see ___1___ had caught my eye. Just as I bent over to pick up the object, the machine exploded behind me. I ___2___ (stand) there, frightened but unhurt. I ___3___ (save) by the shiny object—a coin. I now believe in lucky coins and stop to pick them up whenever I see them.‎ ‎【答案】1. what ‎ ‎2. stood 3. was saved ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了在修剪草坪时意外发现了一枚硬币的故事。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 考查宾语从句。动词see后跟宾语从句，宾语从句缺少主语，作者是在草坪上看到的东西，下文中的the object提示是物，所以宾语从句主语用what，故填what。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 考查时态。事情发生在以前的某一天，过去发生的事，要用一般过去时，所以要填stand的过去式，故填stood。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 考查被动语态。by the shiny object中的the shiny object是动作的执行者，提示句中主语为动作的接受者，所以谓语动词要用被动语态，主语为I，事情发生在过去，时态用一般过去时，故填was saved。‎ B 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。‎ Reading as a teen leads to success. When teens read more than just their classroom assignments, research clearly shows that they generally do ___4___ (good) in school. First of all, the extra reading ___5___ (enlarge) their vocabularies. And teens ___6___ read more serious literary works gain skills in handling complex ideas. Besides, teens can educate ___7___ (they) in any area of life they are interested in if they are good at reading. Plus, reading also helps them expand their horizons as they learn more about people and the world.‎ ‎【答案】4. well/better ‎ ‎5. enlarges ‎ ‎6. who/that ‎ ‎7. themselves ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。说明了青少年时期的阅读能给他们带来的好处。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 考查副词或副词比较级。所填词修饰动词do，要用副词，所以可以填well，前文中出现了more，所以也可以用副词的比较级与此呼应，故填well或better。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 考查时态。句中主语the extra reading，为第三人称单数做主语，文章是说明文，介绍的是一般研究结论，时态用一般现在时，所以谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，故填enlarges。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 考查定语从句。定语从句的先行词：teens，指人，从句缺主语，在定语从句中关系代词做主语，指人可以用who或者that，故填who/that。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 考查代词。所填词在句中做宾语，句子是说，如果青少年善长阅读，青少年可以在他们感兴趣的任何生活领域接受自我教育。所以，代词要用反身代词，句中主语teens为复数，第三人称，所以要用themselves，故填themselves。‎ C 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。‎ A cheerful panda ___8___ (call) Bing Dwen Dwen has been chosen as the Olympic mascot for Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games. The new Olympic mascot will serve as an ambassador (大使) ‎ for winter sports, ___9___ (bring) joy to those who participate in and watch the Olympic Winter Games. “Bing” means ice and symbolizes purity and strength. “Dwen Dwen” relates to children and means ____10____ (honest), health, liveliness and loveliness. The mascot represents the strength and willpower of athletes and will help to promote the Olympic spirit.‎ ‎【答案】8. called ‎ ‎9. bringing ‎ ‎10. honesty ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了2022年北京冬季奥林匹克运动会的吉祥物一个喜庆的熊猫“冰墩墩”名字的含义和它的使命。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。所填词作定语修饰前面的名词panda，panda与call之间是被动关系，所以要用其ed形式，故填called。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，本句有谓语动词serve，无连词，所以应该用非谓语，所填词与谓语动词serve同时发生，表示伴随，再根据bring与主语mascot是主动关系，所以要用动词的ing形式，故填bringing。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 考查名词。句中谓语动词means后面跟宾语，名词作宾语，所以要填其名词形式，故填honesty。‎ 第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，共30分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I looked out at the smiling faces in the school auditorium.

We’re here to fill the time with fun projects and outings for all ages! Each of these activities is fun enough to pull your kids off the couch and away from the games.‎ An educational field trip Ages: All Spending a couple of weeks in the house can make anyone crazy. Why not take your kids on an educational field trip? Local children’s museums or science and technology museums will be a hit. These museums provide opportunities for hands-on exploration, so your kids will be able to interact with STEM subjects, instead of just watching them.‎ Many of them offer discounted tickets on certain days. Read the fine print online to see if you can visit for less.‎ Science experiments at home Ages: All Science experiments aren’t just for school. In fact, your kids could probably spend the entirety of their winter break exploring science with nothing more than objects you’d find around the house. For younger kids, making frozen bubbles is a great way to explore the scientific process. Teens can look to a list of 15 age-appropriate experiments for inspiration.‎ Start building Ages: All There’s no better way to explore engineering principles than to start building! Gather up any ‎ number of household objects—plastic cups, LEGO blocks, straws—and start building. If you want some suggestions for what to build and how to build it, Google is your best friend.‎ Electrical engineering Ages: 14–18‎ Light up your holiday season with one of our handy guides. In the past, we showed readers how to create a Tech-o-Lantern costume, and those same principles could be used to create other light-up projects. We also created a simple guide for creating a light-up holiday card and that’s perfect for Christmas.‎ We hope these fun STEM activities will keep your kids happily occupied over winter break.‎ ‎31. Who is this passage probably written for?‎ A. Parents. B. Teachers.‎ C. Camp organizers. D. School leaders.‎ ‎32. If you want to make a thank-you card with lights, you may prefer _________.‎ A. Electrical engineering B. Science experiments at home C. Start building D. An educational field trip ‎33. The winter break STEM activities _________.‎ A. are organized outdoors B. need to be done with family C. are free to children of all ages D. give children hands-on experience ‎【答案】31. A 32. A 33. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇应用文。介绍了寒假里为学生准备的在科学，技术，工程，数学方面的4个活动。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 推理判断题。文章开始：“Each of these activities is fun enough to pull your kids off the couch and away from the games.”，这些活动中的每一个都足够有趣足够使你们的孩子离开沙发，远离游戏，这里的your就是指的孩子们的父母，选项A说这篇文章是为父母而写的，切题，故选A。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 细节理解题。第4个活动中：“We also created a simple guide for creating a light-up holiday card……”，我们也能够指导制作带有闪亮灯的节日贺卡。题目是问要想制作带有灯的感谢卡，最好参加哪项活动，选项A是第4个活动，切题，故选A。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 推理判断题。题目问：寒假的科学，技术，工程，数学方面的4个活动具有的特点，选项A：在户外组织的，从第1个活动：“Local children’s museums or science and technology museums will be a hit.”，看出该活动是孩子们参观一些博物馆，而博物馆不是户外的，选项A错误。选项B：需要和家庭一起完成，选项C：对所有年龄的孩子免费，这两项在文章找不到对应的细节，选项D：这些活动能让孩子们去亲身体验。4个活动：参观博博物馆，在家做科学实验，用家庭里有的物品建造东西来探索工程原理，制作闪光的物品，这些活动都是要叫孩子动手、动脑的活动，所以是孩子们能亲身体验的，文中一开始：“Each of these activities is fun enough to pull your kids off the couch and away from the games.”就表述了这4个活动与看电视和玩游戏的不同，选项D切题，故选D。‎ ‎【点睛】阅读理解题目中有两种对细节内容进行确定，再推理的方法：排除法和直接判定法，本题中的第3题，要将这两种方法结合使用。选项A可以在文中直接找到相关内容，来认定其错误，剩下的三个选项中B、C选项在文中没有明确的表述，应该先定为可疑项，作好记号，选项D乍一看文中也没有直接表述的内容来支撑，但通读完全文，了解了4个活动的内容和目的后，可以推理出他们都是需要孩子们自己亲身参与的活动，而不是像看电视那样被动、消极接受的活动，再结合文中开头与看电视、玩游戏进行的对比，说明这4个活动是需要孩子们亲身参与的，亲身体验的，从而选定正确答案。‎ B My family moved to St. Paul, Minnesota last year, where the average winter temperature is around 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Once summer ended, everyone went inside to play ice hockey. I’d been on the ice only a couple of times when I was much younger. When I’d fallen and broken my wrist during my second lesson, I’d decided never to put on ice skates again.‎ Ben, the friend I made in the new city, volunteered to teach me to skate. Even though he was very patient, I was so embarrassed by my clumsiness that I began to make up excuses for not skating.‎ One day I discovered a faster route home. It took me past a large frozen pond. I noticed a woman teaching a young girl to skate. The girl was attempting to jump and spin in the air.‎ Over and over, she pushed off the ground with the toe of her skate. And over and over, she landed ‎ hard on the ice.‎ After I had been watching the girl practice for about a week, one afternoon she suddenly lifted off the ground, spun in the air, and landed on her feet!‎ The next day I bought myself some brand new skates. Every day on the way home I stopped at the pond and wobbled onto the ice, right next to the girl who had landed her jump. As she perfected her twists and tricks, I taught myself to glide and turn. It was hard being a beginner, and when I fell I had to fight the urge to simply give up. Instead, every time I went down, I just picked myself up and started over again. Soon I was able to keep my balance and skate more confidently. In just a few weeks, I was actually ready to practice the speed skating, fast stops, and quick turns needed for ice hockey. When I was finally ready to show Ben my newfound skating ability, he told me I should join the local hockey league. I tried out and was chosen for a team. By the end of the season, I was part of a winning team.‎ ‎34. What can we learn about the author?‎ A. He learned skating from the girl.‎ B. He preferred ice hockey to skating.‎ C.

D ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。作者在很小的时候由于滑冰摔断了手腕，所以对滑冰一直已心存畏惧，搬到明尼苏达的圣保罗后依然如此，在一次抄近路回家，经过一个冰冻池塘，作者看到了一个在练习滑冰的小女孩，她在经历了无数次的摔倒后，一周后突然腾空而起，这一幕使作者深受教育，他开始自学滑冰，一次次的摔倒，一次次的重新站起来，重新开始，最后成为了一支获胜冰球队的一员。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 细节理解题。第一段最后两句：“When I’d fallen and broken my wrist during my second lesson, I’d decided never to put on ice skates again.”，作者在上滑冰课的第二次就摔断的手腕，他决定再也不穿溜冰鞋了，就是不再学滑冰了，选项C是作者曾经想放弃学习滑冰，切题，故选C。‎ ‎【35题详解】‎ 推理判断题。读完全文，知道作者从曾经放弃学习滑冰，到再重新开始学习，是因为看到了小女孩在经历了无数次的摔倒后，一周后突然腾空而起，成功了，池塘上的小女孩鼓励了作者，选项B是作者提到池塘上的小女孩是想表明她激励了他，切题，故选B。‎ ‎【36题详解】‎ 细节理解题。最后一段：“It was hard being a beginner, ……every time I went down, I just picked myself up and started over again. Soon I was able to keep my balance and skate more confidently. In just a few weeks, I was actually ready to practice the speed skating, fast stops, and quick turns needed for ice hockey. ……I tried out and was chosen for a team. By the end of the season, I was part of a winning team.”，作者练习时一次次的摔倒，一次次的重新站起来，重新开始，可以看出作者练习地很艰苦，最后作者被选进冰球队，成为了一支获胜冰球队的一员，作者成功了，获得了成功，这是艰苦练习的奖励，选项B是作者的训练是艰苦的，但是有回报的，切题，故选B。‎ ‎【37题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文，故事情节告诉我们作者从放弃滑冰到受到鼓励自学，经过艰苦的练习，最后成功了，选项A：条条大道通罗马。选项B：活到老学到老。选项C：善有善报。选项D：有志者事竟成。选项D切题，故选D。‎ C A star athlete at the college where I work recently stopped by my office. After committing a few ‎ unforced errors during a weekend match, she was riven by self-criticism. “I’m at peak fitness, and I practice hard. How is this happening?” She asked.‎ This student believes she should be able to control the outcomes of her life by virtue of her hard work. She has a sense that hours on the field should get her exactly where she needs to go. Many students have similar mentality. When they win, they feel powerful and smart. When they fail, they are crushed by self-blame. If my achievements are mine to control, they reason, my failures must be entirely my fault, too.‎ We talk often about young adults struggling with failure because their parents have protected them from discomfort. But there is something else at play: a false promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work for it.‎ Psychologists have sourced this phenomenon to a misapplication of “mindset” research, which has found that praising children for effort will increase academic performance. A 2018 analysis found that while praising effort over ability may benefit economically disadvantaged students, it does not necessarily help everyone.‎ One possible explanation comes from Suniya Luthar, who argued in a research paper that for teens in wealthy, pressure-cooker communities, “it is not a lack of motivation and perseverance (毅力) that is the big problem. Instead, it is unhealthy perfectionism, and difficulty with backing off when they should, when the desire for achievements is over the top.” They push themselves onward in face of impossible goals. A 2007 study found that teens who refused to give up impossible goals showed higher levels of C-reaction protein, a marker of systemic inflammation (全身炎症) linked to heart disease and other medical conditions. A 2014 study showed a connection between the perfectionist tendencies and depression.‎ The cruel reality is that you can do everything in your power and still fail. Instead of allowing our kids to beat themselves up when things don’t go their way, we adults should help students pursue success in healthier ways in part by redefining failure as a feature, not a bug, of learning. At Smith College where I teach, students are asked to explore how setbacks and missteps made them stronger or more effective. We would be wise to remind our kids that life has a way of sucker-punching (意外打击) us when we least expect it. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest.‎ ‎38. Why was star athlete trapped by self-blame?‎ A. She broke down during the match.‎ B. She didn’t try her best in the match.‎ C. She believed hard work should pay off.‎ D. She thought she should have practiced harder.‎ ‎39. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?‎ A. Lack of motivation and perseverance leads to teens’ failure.‎ B. Praising children for effort increases academic performance.‎ C. Children struggle with failure due to parents’ over-protection.‎ D. Unhealthy perfectionism causes physical and emotional stress.‎ ‎40. According to the author, adults should _________.‎ A. help students learn from failure B. protect students from discomfort C. reward students for their hard work D. explore the cause of students’ failure ‎41. Which of the following does the author probably agree with?‎ A. Effort equals achievement.‎ B. Motivation is the key to success.‎ C. Success is not always under control.‎ D.

But a team of researchers in Greece recently found a way to turn lemons into very small “radio stations” that can broadcast information about their trees’ moisture content to a smartphone—the first step toward creating what the researchers call an “Internet of plants.”‎ Scientists had previously attached sensors to trees to measure their water use, but “no other team had created a wireless radio network among plants, sending information while consuming only a few microwatts and costing just a few dollars,” says project leader Aggelos Bletsas, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the Technical University of Crete.‎ The network consists of several basic components: an existing FM radio station, an antenna (‎ 天线) attached to a lemon growing on a tree, a humidity (湿度) sensor in the lemon, a transistor connected to an antenna and an FM receiver. First, the antenna picks up the signal from the FM station, and then passes the signal to the transistor, which is modulated by the humidity sensor. The sensor switches the transistor on and off at a rate dependent on the plant’s moisture level: if the soil is wet or if the atmosphere is humid, that rate is lower; if it is dry, the rate is higher. Finally, the antenna broadcasts this information to the radio receiver on a mobile phone.‎ In this way, plants can tell farmers if they are thirsty. “We can literally ‘listen’ to the moisture of the plant, using our mobile FM radio with a $3.4 sensor,” Bletsas says. “Two of these sensors for every acre on any given farm might change the way we conduct agriculture and ‘understand’ plants.” He notes that more sensors may be needed for the best possible results. Such real-time information could enable better control of air and soil moisture.‎ Why go through all this trouble and not just use already common wireless technology, such as Bluetooth? “Not only is our technique less complex, as we are just borrowing signals in the environment,” Bletsas says, but “a Bluetooth-based sensor costs about $25. Our final aim is to launch sensors onto the market costing less than $1.”‎ ‎“Bletsas and his team are completely changing the way of environmental sensing using very simple equipment and surprisingly little power,” says Alexandros Dimakis, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Texas at Austin, who was not involved in the research. “Their work could be a transformational Internet of Things technology for agriculture and for monitoring the environment.”‎ Bletsas and his colleagues have already applied for a patent for their innovative technology in America.‎ ‎42.

Your boss is monitoring your performance at work. Supermarkets are collecting data on your grocery shopping. ___46___‎ In a few months, European Union law-makers are due to approve proposals that will make driver assistance systems mandatory (强制的) in cars within three years. All new models of car will come with black boxes (event data recorders), intelligent speed assistance, lane-keeping assistance and more besides.‎ A large number of technologies will soon be monitoring a driver’s every move. Are we prepared for devices that watch how we drive and try to help us do it better?‎ ‎___47___ In a report published in April 2018, it found that the suite of changes could save at least 7,300 lives by 2030, and reduce the number of serious injuries from car crashes by 38,900. “We can have the same kind of impact as when safety belts were first introduced,” says Oliver Carsten, who studies transport safety at the University of Leeds, UK.‎ ‎___48___ The black box is the most controversial (有争议的) tech because of fears that the tech encourages surveillance. It would be easy to worry about being watched in your car. But the EU rules say the system is only checked in the event of an accident to help with insurance claims and police investigation. The point is to provide for a fair allocation (分配) of responsibility when a crash occurs. Some people choose to have a black box because it can reduce their individual insurance premium (保险费). ____49____ What’s more, the data collected in human-driven cars will help train automated ‎ driving systems to the point that they could be ready for large-scale deployment in the future.‎ ‎___50___ Drivers should think of it as an extra layer of protection, rather than the vehicle trying to take over driving from you.‎ A. Now there is a new field: the automobile.‎ B. There is concern about these technologies, however.‎ C. The tech is reducing costs because it’s reducing the number of crashes.‎ D. Safety isn't much discussed, principally because cars are already very safe.‎ E. While the EU is taking the boldest steps, these technologies aren't far behind in other parts of the world.‎ F. As a result, what may at first glance seem like a surveillance technology is actually a benefit for society.‎ G. The European Commission says that introducing these advanced driver assistance systems will make driving safer.‎ ‎【答案】46. A 47. G 48. B 49. C 50.
