2021年1月“八省联考”新高考考前猜题 英语 Word版含解析

- 1 - 2021年 1月“八省联考”考前猜题卷 英语 第一部分 阅读(共两节,满分 50分) 第一节(共 15小题;每小题 2.5分,满分 37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A This year, most people have probably spent more of 2020 canceling travel plans than booking them, but it’s not too late to reverse that trend. Here are some vacations you can plan this fall. Road trip to a local farm Visiting a farm is “number one” travel pick right now. Price plays a big role in that suggestion. Apple picking, for example, is usually very affordable, with some orchards(果园)offering products by the pound, for $1 or $2, and others offering a flat fee for an all-you-can fill bag for about $30. Visit a national park There are 421 national parks in the U.S., so odds are you’ve got one in driving range. If you’re up for a challenge, you can climb the Half Dome in Yosemite or race down the great sand dunes in Colorado. The parks are also affordable. An annual pass, which guarantees entry to every park for an entire family, is just $80. Plan a camping trip It doesn’t cost much more than camping. Most states have dozens of drive-in camp sites, while you can also find cabins in the $50-$100 per night range. There’s no shortage of activities, either –whether it’s fishing, hiking, biking or just perfecting your camping recipe. Rent an RV RVs are a prime option for a cheap vacation. Using an RV for a vacation means you’re paying for your transportation and lodging all in one. Also, considering that some two-person RVs can go for as little as $175-$200 per night, you can easily find yourself traveling around the country without breaking the bank. 1. Which vacation would a thrill seeker most probably choose? A. Road trip to a local farm B. Visit a national park C. Plan a camping trip D. Rent an RV 2. What do the vacations have in common? A. Wallet-friendly. B. Environment-friendly. - 2 - C. Family-friendly. D. User-friendly. 3. What’s the unique advantage of renting RVs? A. It makes your vacation adventurous. B. It offers free trips around the world. C. You can kill two birds with one stone. D. You may have someone to keep you company. B On her third Christmas, my daughter Jillian didn’t have the energy for opening presents. At 23-months, she had been diagnosed with neuroblastoma, an aggressive tumor(肿瘤). I didn’t know how challenging the holidays could become until Jillian died. Being sorrowful became my full-time job in the following days. The pain was a wildfire in my chest and nothing could put it out. A week before the fourth Christmas, Tom and I bought a three-foot plant that slightly resembled a Christmas tree. My adult nephew Frankie came along. We were busy decorating the tree and Frankie reached into a Christmas decoration box and pulled out a toy angel with a white gown that my aunt had crafted years before. As he lifted the angel, her hair fell out in one big bunch, just like Jillian’s. We burst into laughter. In between gasps, Frankie looked up with the angel in hand and said, “Hi, Jillian.” Tomemerged from the bedroom and saw our tree, “It’s small, bald and beautiful! Just like Jilly-boo. I like it.” I moved closer to Tom and he put his arm around my shoulder. Looking at the angel, I knew it would help us through the holidays. Like us, it was sad and pitiful, but full of beautiful memories of Jillian. "Do something new." said a minister who ran a support group I went to. It’s as if you must create a new space in your heart to keep it beating, despite the bleeding hole. Tom and I were eventually able to experience the wonder of a four-year-old at Christmas. On the one-year anniversary of Jillian’s death, I discovered I was pregnant. Our second daughter, Cadence, brought us back to joy and hope. Cadence is nine now, and hoping Santa will bring her a dog this year. Eleven years after Jillian’s death, Christmas is almost Christmas again. 4. What does the author say about herself after Jillian’s death? A. She went on her life as usual. B. She was drowned in tears. - 3 - C. She decided to start a new life. D. She quit her full-time job. 5. What can we infer about the toy angel? A. It was a beautiful decoration. B. It was a gift from Jillian. C. It was a relief to the author. D. It was a symbol of strength. 6. What does the author mean by “Christmas is almost Christmas again”? A. Her family can reunite again. B. She has been out of sadness. C. Santa will bring them gifts. D. She has another daughter. 7. What can we learn from the passage? A. Mother’s love is forever strong. B. One should depend on himself. C. Family is everything for people. D. Life goes on despite misfortunes. C Kursat Ceylan is blind. He once walked into a pole and cut open his forehead. This inspired him and his partner to come up with a cane that had AI built-in, named WeWalk. This would then detect any objects that might be above chest-level. The AI is also able to pair up with various systems, including Google Maps, Amazon Alexa and more. Of course, the smart cane itself can only integrate with AI functions on a basic level right now but the overall aim is to gather information from various sensors that WeWalk have been installed (安装). It can then use data to find out how visually damaged people use the product and how they behave so that a far more complicated product can be created in the form of advanced AI. It should be noted that this isn’t meant to be a simple smart cane. It’s supposed to be connected with transportation networks and even autonomous vehicles. The general idea is that WeWalk would eventually be able to interact with traffic lights so that people can then cross roads without having to push a button. They would also be able to alert (报警)buses so that they can then wait at a stop ahead of time. Innovations like this would be more than welcome but they would fall short of some of the dreams that were once inspired by AI. People once thought that AI would be able to form logical connections and even change the world. Right now it hasn’t really done that, but scientists are working on it. Only time will tell if this is ever going to be the case but right now it looks like there is a lot being done to tryand make sure that the world of tech and healthcare are being benefited and for all - 4 - of the right reasons. 8. What is special about WeWalk? A. It is very long. B. It is very strong. C. It is intelligent. D. It is portable. 9. What can WeWalk do now? A. Control the user’s behavior. B. Perform some simple tasks. C. Detect any objects ahead of the user. D. Protect the user from being attacked. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us? A. Reasons for the application of WeWalk. B. WeWalk’s influence on people’s lives. C. The working principles of WeWalk. D. Some potential uses of WeWalk. 11. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. More efforts are being made to improve AI. B. People have benefited a lot from AI. C. People shouldn’t expect too much of AI. D. The author is worried about the future of AI. D Addiction to watching seven episodes of Real Housewives or “wasting” the afternoon watching back-to-back classic baseball games isn’t going to melt our brains. In fact, studies suggest that “playing a video game or watching a movie or television show can restore some psychological resources,” says Robin Nabi, PhD, a professor of communication at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who specializes in the effects of media on emotions. Though the benefits have yet to be studied long-term and our problems don’t magically disappear once we turn off the tube, rest can reduce stress levels. Giving ourselves permission to enjoy some downtime is also a key part of self-sympathy, which helps prevent anxiety and depression. “We don’t focus as much on relaxation and playing and enjoyment and fun, and these are such important aspects of being a human being,” says Nabi. “And feeling guilty about activities we enjoy, or criticizing them, can detract (损害)from the benefits they offer us.” Therefore, it’s time to embrace our need for pleasure. One big reason to do so is that talking about our common interests and pursuits, whatever they may be, is a way to connect with others. The most important value of a guilty pleasure might just be the bond it can create between people who share it. You’ll never find those connections if you don’t speak up. So stop apologizing. You might just find that it reduces any remaining guilt and makes it easier to discover more things you enjoy. - 5 - “Lots of the time, guilty pleasures get talked about in terms of genre (类型),” says Nabi. But it can help to think about what you like specifically, she points out. “You probably don’t like all boy bands, so what is it about this particular group and their music? Whatever it is, find your little niche and go for that. And don’t be ashamed of what that is, because clearly it’s doing something for you.” 12. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A. By listing examples. B. By giving definitions. C. By making a contrast. D. By providing background information. 13. What does Nabi think of people’s guilty feeling about pleasure? A. It is normal. B. It is beneficial. C. It is confusing. D. It is unnecessary. 14. What does the underlined word “niche” in the last paragraph refer to? A. A job someone is responsible for. B. An activity suitable for someone. C. A pleasure bringing someone guilt. D. A small case someone cares little about. 15. Which of following opinions would the author agree with? A. Don’t be addicted to entertainment. B. Develop new hobbies to reduce pressure. C. View our demand for pleasure positively. D. Stay away from guilty pleasures. 第二节(共 5小题;每小题 2.5分,满分 12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 What is a database? A database is a collection of data or information that is organized, stored, and accessed electronically. 16 There are three main distinguishing aspects of any database: It is relevant. When searching for information in the database, you should be able to customize your search to get results relevant to you. There are several ways to search through a database, for example, using discipline-specific terminology (术语), keywords, subject headings, etc. 17 18 One of the main differences between the information you find on the internet and that in databases is that the information found in databases is often peer-reviewed. Furthermore, the information in the database should have key identifiers such as the publication details, author’s name, and a summary that you can use to evaluate the information’s credibility. It is accessible. First of all, access to the library is either free or purchased by patrons (赞助 者 )so that you can access the information within it at no price. 19 Secondly, the database - 6 - should provide the full-text of the articles, meaning you will not need to go to the library or the source to do so. 20 It is an academic search engine. It doesn’t always have the articles’ full texts, and you may have to go to their libraries and find or pay for them. Also, the search engine scours the internet for information that seems academic, and some of this information isn’t always peer-reviewed. A. It is reliable. B. It is reasonable. C. You may have to pay a small subscription fee as an independent researcher. D. Google Scholar isn’t a database using these aspects as a determining criterion. E. It is organized so that searching and finding this information is easy and rapid. F. They are all relevant factors to be referred to when searching educational databases. G. You can set limitations such as the source type and the date or search by author or title. 第二部分语言运用(共两节,满分 30分) 第一节(共 15小题;每小题 1分,满分 15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was a cool moment on a hot July day.

In general, what you eat matters a lot more than 38 it comes from, since transportation accounts for only about 6 percent of food’s total climate footprint. Some fruits and vegetables 39 (transport)by plane can have a high carbon footprint. By contrast, apples, oranges, and bananas are often shipped by sea, which 40 (be)more fuel efficient. Cold-climate vegetables such as carrots, and potatoes can 41 (store)after the fall harvest and last through the winter. It’s true that one person alone can have only a tiny impact on the global climate problem. On the other hand ,if many people made 42 (change)to their diets, that could start to add up. As the world’s population keeps 43 (grow), farmers will need to produce less carbon and grow - 8 - 44 (many)food on less land to limit the destruction of forest.

It is difficult to say when exactly calligraphy started. Chinese writing was first done by carving symbols onto bones and shells, but as it developed into a writing system, it also developed as a form of art done with a brush. It is believed that Chinese calligraphy dates back to at least the Han Dynasty. Soon after that, the idea developed that calligraphy was not only a beautiful art form but also a means of showing the character of the “man behind the brush”. Today, anyone from small children to old people can enjoy practicing the classic art of Chinese calligraphy. 第二节(满分 25分) 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My presentation was horrible. I lost the client. My boss wouldn’t look me in the eye and the rest of my day was spent in relative silence - I was left alone, in reality. Finally, I left my air-conditioned office and of course, outside it was hot as hell. I was hot literally and figuratively as three buses - 9 - passed, too full to stop and then the one that did stop should have kept going because the Air Conditioning wasn’t working. I boarded the bus but was unable to stand it, so I squeezed my way off at the next stop. I would just walk the mile and a half to home. I annoyed further, as I continued my journey. I refused to take off my jacket, purposely maximizing my frustrations -when it rains let it pour was my philosophy. A block from my building, I heard the water splashing and kids screaming so I knew the fire hydrant(消防栓;喷淋系统 )had been turned on. Without even thinking about taking an alternate route, I turned the corner, sure enough, there was a group of kids playing in the water. They were politely on the lookout to stop the water from spraying on any passers-by, so when they saw me they stopped the water and when they saw my mean look they even got quiet. The younger ones in bathing suits, the girls wearing shower caps and the boys with water guns all stared at me as I started to pass by. Then I noticed a little one, no older than five, holding a water gun down by his side, eying me a little harder than the others. I eyed him back. Then his brother, who I’d seen around the neighborhood, nodded at him like he was saying, “I dare you.” My eyes tightened a little further as I communicated my own “I dare you” to the five-year-old. Then his eyes moved, planning his escape route through the alley, and in that spilt second I knew I was going to get soaked(湿透). 注意: 1.续写词数应为 150左右: 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1 And he got me, behind my ear, before he ran toward his exit. Paragraph 2 I couldn’t remember my last water fight. - 10 - 答案 A - 11 - C - 12 - - 13 - - 14 - - 15 - - 16 -
