高三年高考题型组合套练 第十九练 阅读、七选五、完形、语法填空 组合练 一、阅读理解 A Scientists have recently discovered that Andean condors (秃鹫) — some of the world's largest birds — barely flap their wings at all while flying. Instead, they use rising air currents to remain in the air for hours. The Andean condor is the world's largest soaring bird. They can weigh up to 15 kilograms. Their wings, when spread out, measure up to three meters. Their main food source is the meat of large animals which have died. Soaring high in the sky allows condors to easily spot possible meals on the ground. Scientists worked together to study the flight patterns of these huge birds and how much effort the birds use when flying. To study the birds while they were in the sky, the researchers attached special devices which could record every beat of their wings. The scientists learned that most of the condors’ flapping — over 75% — came when the birds were taking off. Once in the sky, the birds flew for very long periods of time without flapping at all. In fact, they only flapped their wings for 1% of the time they were in the air. One bird flew for over five hours without flapping, covering nearly 117 miles. Soaring without flapping is important because birds burn energy every time they flap their wings. The birds' soaring isn't magic. They use the fact that hot air rises to keep themselves up. As hot air rises, it often creates “thermals” — currents of warm air moving upward. The condors soar by making use of these thermals. The tricky part is finding thermals and moving between them. When birds are forced to land and take off again often, it costs them a lot of energy. The researchers learned that to avoid having to land, the condors did most of their non-take-off flapping when they were closer to the ground and looking for a new thermal. The scientists reported that even though all of the condors they studied were young, they knew well how to take advantage of the air currents. 1.What can we learn about the Andean condor from the text? A.They live mainly on small animals. B.Their wingspan is at least three meters. C.They rely on hot air to remain high in the sky. D.They are the birds with the strongest flying ability. 2.Why was the equipment tied to the birds? A.To measure how far they could fly without flapping. B.To keep track of how often they flapped while flying. C.To calculate the energy required for their flight. D.To confirm their flight patterns. 3.Which of the following acts consumes the most energy for a condor? A.Hunting for food. B.Flying in the sky. C.Getting off the ground. D.Landing on the ground. 4.What can we infer from the text? A.Condors flap the most when looking for a new thermal. B.No condor can fly for more than five hours without flapping. C.Condors don't need to look for thermals when soaring in the sky. D.Soaring by using thermals is probably a natural ability of condors. B At first, I didn't recognize the symptoms that we all had in common. Friends mentioned that they were having trouble concentrating. It wasn't burnout — we still had energy. It wasn't depression — we didn't feel hopeless. We just felt somewhat joyless and aimless. It turns out there's a name for that: languishing. Languishing is a sense of inactivity and emptiness. It feels as if you're muddling (应付) through your days, looking at your life through a foggy windshield (挡风玻璃). In psychology, we think about mental health on a spectrum (范围) from depression to flourishing (精力旺盛). Flourishing is the peak of well-being. Depression is the valley of ill-being. Languishing is the neglected middle child of mental health. It's the emptiness between depression and flourishing — the absence of well-being. You're not functioning at full capacity. Languishing dulls your motivation, disrupts your ability to focus, and greatly increases the possibility that you'll cut back on work. Part of the danger is that when you're languishing, you might not notice the dulling of delight or the decreasing of drive. You don't catch yourself slipping slowly into aloneness; you're indifferent to your indifference. When you can't see your own suffering, you don't seek help or even do much to help yourself. So what can we do about it? People who became more focused on their work managed to avoid languishing. Interrupted attention is an enemy of engagement and excellence. To go beyond languishing, give yourself some uninterrupted time. It clears out constant distractions (分心) and gives us the freedom to focus. And try starting with small wins by focusing on a challenge that matters to you —an interesting project, a worthwhile goal, or a meaningful conversation. We still have a lot to learn about what causes languishing and how to cure it, but naming it might be a first step. It could help to defog our vision, giving us a clearer window into what had been an unclear experience. It could remind us that we weren't alone: languishing is common and shared. By acknowledging that so many of us are languishing, we can start giving voice to quiet despair and lighting a path out of the emptiness. 5.Which definition best suits the word “languishing”? A.Feeling exhausted and without hope. B.Becoming weaker or failing to improve. C.Making someone want to achieve something. D.Going beyond the usual limits of something. 6.Which of the following can be described as languishing? A.Seeking help when you are suffering. B.Realizing that you are not alone in despair. C.Giving yourself some uninterrupted time. D.Being indifferent to your lack of enthusiasm. 7.What could psychologists do to help solve the problems of languishing? A.Give people more freedom. B.See it as depression. C.Name it clearly. D.Remove it from a spectrum. 8.Why is it significant to know languishing is common and shared? A.We can let the silent despair speak up and find a way out. B.We can continue to learn more about languishing. C.We can see it as basically the same as depression. D.We can study it as the complete opposite of flourishing. 二、七选五 Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change. 1 Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it's important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You're wrong!” won't ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished. Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don't really care about you. 2 Don't let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don't allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem. 3 Whatever went wrong won't define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage. Practice self-affirmation. 4 It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I'm a micromanager, but I can work on that. I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.” Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. 5 Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals. Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself. A. Avoid reacting defensively. B. Don't take the feedback personally. C. These can feel easier to work with and give you direction. D. You don't have to apply every piece of feedback you receive. E. Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure. F. It's almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time. G. So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback. 三、完形填空 I had been practising my speech for days, but I was still stressed out.

Along the way, porcelain (瓷器) was born. Porcelain is made by heating raw materials, often 1 mix between china stone and kaolin clay, in a kiln at a temperature as high as 1,200 degrees Celsius. Temperature is key 2 making porcelain. Going through the fire of reinvention gives porcelain 3 (great) strength, more translucence(半透明) and a feast of colors. Celadon produced in Longquan, Zhejiang province, a technique 4 (pass) down for more than 1,600 years, is a typical example of craftsmen's pursuit of the perfect green glint (闪光). 5 takes 72 steps to produce Longquan celadon's jade-like green. Plum green and light green are two colors of the best quality. Porcelain has also been a carrier for cultural exchanges. Along with China's silk and tea, porcelain was one of the first items 6 (receive) worldwide trade. As it travelled around the globe through the ancient Maritime Silk Road, porcelain 7 (enjoy) great popularity among royal families and upper classes in Europe, 8 were fascinated by these beautiful vessels they named after China. Porcelain has evolved into art works. Even when broken into 9 (piece) and buried deep in mud, cultural values attached to porcelain remain. As a memory that can be felt with both hands, porcelain is 10 (touch)history. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$高三年高考题型组合套练 第十九练 阅读、七选五、完形、语法填空 组合练 一、阅读理解 A Scientists have recently discovered that Andean condors (秃鹫) — some of the world's largest birds — barely flap their wings at all while flying.
