江西省南昌县莲塘一中2018届高三11月质量检测 英语试题 第二部分 阅读理解(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,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。‎ A ‎ The Henry Doorly zoo is one of the great things about living in Omaha. Reader’s Digest even named it the Best Zoo in America in 2004. The Henry Doorly zoo was built in 1894. But before 1963, it was named as the Riverview Park Zoo. Four years after it was built, the zoo boasted 120 animals. Today, the zoo can claim North America’s largest cat complex, the world’s largest nocturnal(夜间的) exhibit and indoor swamp, the world’s largest indoor rainforest, and the world’s largest indoor desert.‎ ‎ The zoo is known for hosting a number of special events. Some of the most popular include Member’s Day in July, and the Spooktacular, usually held on the last Sunday in October. On Member’s Day, the zoo gives out free train rides and a number of other perks(额外补贴) to thank its most loyal patrons(顾客). The Spooktacular is one of the best Halloween parties in town. The zoo hosts over 20 special treat stations, allowing costumed kids to trick or treat from 10 am to 3 pm. Other activities are always announced closer to the day, and even the train conductors dress up, giving special rides!‎ ‎ The hours for the zoo are pretty simple: Winter Hours: 9:30am-5pm; Summer Hours: 8:30am-5pm. The zoo is open pretty much every day, except for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s. But leave the cigarettes at home, as the zoo is tobacco free all year long!‎ ‎ If you do have time, be sure to check out the IMAX. Doorly’s Lozier IMAX is a sweet 364-seat theater opened in 1997. It uses the top of the line 15/70 film.‎ ‎ Here’s a basic price list for zoo and IMAX admission:‎ Age Group Zoo Admission IMAX Admission Zoo/IMAX Combo Children(2 and under)‎ FREE FREE FREE Children(ages 3-11)‎ ‎$7.75‎ ‎$6.75‎ ‎$12.75‎ Adults(ages 12 and over)‎ ‎$11.50‎ ‎$8.75‎ ‎$16.5‎ Seniors(ages 62 and over)‎ ‎$10.00‎ ‎$7.75‎ ‎$15.00‎ ‎21.The Spooktacular would most probably attract kids who want to .‎ ‎ A. enjoy free rides ‎ B. see dressed animals ‎ C. see challenging performances ‎ D. enjoy a special Halloween party ‎22.How much should a young couple with their 11-year-old child pay for Zoo/IMAX Combo?‎ ‎ A. $33 B. $42.75 C. $45.75 D. $49.5‎ ‎23.The passage is meant to .‎ ‎ A. advertise the Henry Doorly Zoo ‎ B. encourage kids to care for animals ‎ C. tell the history of the Henry Doorly Zoo ‎ D. recommend activities of the Henry Doorly Zoo B ‎ Millions of New Yorkers and visitors ride the city’s subways and other trains each day. The public transportation system offers more than just a trip, however. It also has one of the most extensive public art collections in the world, with many of them under city streets.‎ ‎ Some people call it New York’s “underground art museum”. It includes more than 250 works of art. They are meant to brighten everyone’s ride around the city.‎ ‎ There is a huge painting of the night sky on the ceiling of Grand Central Terminal. New Yorkers have been looking up at that artwork for 111 years. In the nearby Grand Central Market, you can find a large, crystal light fixture, which was completed by sculptor Donald Lipski in 1988. Other artists include new ones and the long-famous ones such as Roy Lichtenstein and Sol Lewitt.‎ ‎ Sandra Bloodworth has directed the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s arts program since it began in 1985.But actually, it really began much earlier, and some of it even dates back to the time when the subway first opened in 1904.‎ ‎ For the past 30 years, artists have been asked to make works that relate to city life or to the neighborhood around a train station. There are coastal scenes at stations near the Atlantic Ocean. Native plants and flowers can be found in a garden scene in Brooklyn.‎ ‎ Alejandra Acosta, a visitor from Colombia, said, “I think it’s nice to see these kinds of things when you’re walking in spaces like the subway stations that seem a little bit dull. They don’t have a lot of decorations.”‎ ‎ Those art works in New York’s “underground art museum” bring life into the dark passages.‎ ‎24.The art works are decorated in subway stations to .‎ ‎ A.

New Yorkers’ opinions on museums ‎ B. Sandra Bloodworth’s achievements ‎ C. “Underground art museum” in ‎New York ‎ D. An effort to make public transport popular C ‎ I thought English was easy to learn so I paid little attention to it. After school, I started my first job as a shipping agent. Little did I know then English would be a part of my life one day. With the first caller speaking in English, I can still hear myself calling out loud, “HELP! There is a caller on the phone who doesn’t speak German.”‎ ‎ In 2005, I decided to leave the corporate world behind me for my lifelong dream: Move somewhere completely different and live a different life. I came to Bahamas. At first I realized I was lost when it came to small talks. However, it didn’t take me long to understand the “Bahamian slang” nor to have personal conversations. For the next few years I continued to learn more words and phrases used in daily life and started working for a Canadian as his personal assistant. But there were still many words I had never heard of. And the learning continued.‎ ‎ Three years ago I met my husband Daniel, who’s from Liverpool. The first couple of months I had headaches just from concentrating so hard on what he was saying. One part of our conversations in the beginning of our relationship became famous in our circle of friends and let me share it with you. That day, we were sitting on the sofa, having a nice conversation. He asked me, “Honey, how many holes do you have in your car?” A really strange question, I thought but answered anyway. “Three in my left and two holes in my right ear, my dear.” I hadn’t even finished my sentence when he burst into laughter and fell from the sofa. I wasn’t all that amused and looked at him, asking, “What’s so funny about that?” When he finally caught his breath, he said, “Honey, my question was how many holidays do you have a year?”‎ ‎ Even though I’ve lived and worked in an English-speaking country now for over eight years, there’re still words I don’t know, still some dialects I have problems understanding. There’re still times when I can’t find the right word to express myself.‎ ‎28.It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that the author .‎ ‎ A. was busy with her work every day ‎ B. usually received a lot of calls for help ‎ C. used to communicate with others in German ‎ D. showed an interest in learning a foreign language ‎29.Why did the author move to Bahamas?‎ ‎ A. To live a happy life with her family ‎ B. To realize her dream of pursuing a different life ‎ C. To have a good command of a foreign language ‎ D. To look for a more interesting and highly-paid job ‎30.The author mentioned a conversation in Paragraph 3 to show .‎ ‎ A. Daniel enjoyed having fun with the author ‎ B.

No pains, no gains ‎ C. Nothing is impossible D. It’s never too old to learn D ‎ UltraHaptics is young company with a big dream. Its technology creates 30 shapes out of thin air by using ultrasound(超声波). The company’s signal shows it all-“Feeling without touching”. This sounds quite amazing and has the potential to become a game changer. Creating buttons and shapes literally anywhere they’re needed opens up possibilities for more electronic devices.‎ ‎ Through an emission(发射) of sound waves, sensations are sent from the air to the user. To create their invisible buttons, UltraHaptics use a small collection of ultrasonic speakers. Sound travels through air by creating a pressure differential, so by focusing several of these differentials on a target location, the result is a single localized spot of high pressure.‎ ‎ Imagine that in the future cars have no buttons, no switches and no ugly controls. If you’re driving and you want to have the music up, for example, you don’t have to take your eyes off the road. You just hold your hand out and the controls stick to your hand, so you can feel them. Smart phones and other popular devices could also see benefits: controlling appliances in the kitchen, using TVs and computers in a style which reminds you of the movie minority Report or even turning off the alarm in the morning would all become just a matter of waving your hands.‎ ‎ “You get information from the sense of touch-What you’re feeling, and what sort of pressure you have. You also know where your limbs are and how they’re moving from the sense of touch. It’s the information that cues how you’re interacting with the world,” Tom Carter, UltraHaptics’ CTO(Chief Technology Officer), said.‎ ‎ Actually, UltraHaptics has already built several prototypes(原型). It has everything from consumer electronics companies making things like speakers, radios, alarm clocks, to home appliance companies making washing machines,. And we’ll be surprised at how keen it is to work with them.‎ ‎32.According to the passage, what is the big dream of UltraHaptics?‎ ‎ A. To take the place of other high-tech companies ‎ B. To change the way people use electronic devices ‎ C. To create safer electronic devices with more functions ‎ D. To set up more electronics companies all over the world ‎33.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Significant achievements of UltraHaptics ‎ B. Technical difficulties to achieve the dream ‎ C. Working principles of the new technology ‎ D. Various possibilities of future new inventions ‎34.What does the underlined word “cues” in Paragraph 4 mean?‎ ‎ A. Suggests B. Influences ‎ C. Determines D. Evaluates ‎35.What’s the writer’s attitude to the new technology of UltraHaptics?‎ ‎ A. Cautious B. Indifferent C. Doubtful D. Positive 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ I have spent a lot of time working with students, parents and educators. I’ve observed that there’s no relation between what goes on in school and what goes on in the “real world”. 36 That’s a long time! During this time, it is possible that you might pick up bad habits and incorrect ways of looking at the world.‎ ‎ Students generally prefer to work alone. This applies to writing papers and preparing for tests and exams. 37 If you’re working on a complicated assignment in real life, you’ll need to function as part of team.‎ ‎ Students like “model answers”. They believe that if they are equipped with the perfect answers, they’re sure to do well in the exam. 38 You can adopt numerous approaches to the same problem.‎ ‎ 39 But this isn’t the way to achieve success in the real world. You’ll need to take the initiative(主动性). You’ll need to ask questions instead of just following instructions. You’ll need to go beyond what you are expected to do.‎ ‎ Just 10 or 20 years ago, if you wanted to get an education, you had to go to school. But that’s no longer the case. Today, there’s so much information available on the Internet that you can get an education out of school. Learning can take place anywhere. School isn’t the only place where you can get an education. 40 ‎ ‎ A. Failure will lead to many bad consequences ‎ B. Students wait to be told what they should do ‎ C. There are always a lot of new abilities to develop ‎ D. But in life there’s almost never just one right answer ‎ E. Instead, school should just be part of your education ‎ F. However, you can’t accomplish much by yourself in the real world ‎ G. After all, you probably spend 12 years or more in the school system 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每题1.5分,满分30分)‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选取可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ These days my work is mostly on the Internet.
