2024-2025学年高考英语上海卷5月模拟试卷 高考英语上海卷模拟试卷 II.Grammar and Vocabulary(每题1分，共20分) Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word, for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. How DeepSeek Became a Fortune Teller for China's Youth In the glow of her laptop screen, 31 - year - old Zhang Rui typed carefully: "You are a BaZi master. Analyze my fate.I am a female, born June 17, 1993, at 4:42 a.m. in Hangzhou." DeepSeek Rl, China's top Al model, took just 15 seconds to respond:Your career (21) (thrive)during 2025 -2027. Zhang exhaled. She had recently quit her stable job as a product manager at a major tech company (22) (start) her own business, and she now felt relieved. For years, she turned to skilled Chinese fortune tellers before major life decisions to predict success. But now she asks DeepSeek, (23) interpretations she finds surprisingly insightful, "It has become my go - to (24) T feel overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions," Zhang says. Zhang is not alone.Across Chinese social media, young people (25) (engage)with DeepSeek in myriad ways, finding it extremely fascinating, be it sharing Al - generated readings, experimenting with fortune - telling prompt engineering,or revisiting ancient spiritual texts-(26) with the help of this powerful chatbot. Such frenzy has prompted curiosity about DeepSeek among even (27) (tech-savvy)individuals in China. Rachel Zheng. a 32-year - old freelance writer, recently discovered Al fortune - telling and became "immediately hooked" on consulting DeepSeek for BaZi - based creative writing prompts. Frank Lin, a 34 - year - old accountant, quickly developed a strong interest in DeepSeek fortune - telling, despite (28) (not use) any other Al chatbots before. The surge in DeepSeek fortune - telling comes during (29) people refer to as "a time of anxiety". Following the covid pandemic, youth unemployment reached an all - time high of 21% in June 2023. The GDP growth rate in 2024 was also among the slowest in decades. Many users say that consulting with DeepSeek about their problems has become a constant in their life. Users also find DeepSeek to be far better than ChatG;pT at BaZi readings. Chatbot fortune - telling, once touted by skeptics as pseudoscientific (伪科学的), has been unexpectedly validated by DeepSeek's ability to synthesize centuries - old texts with modern behavioral analytics,leaving even(30) (season)researchers intrigued. "ChatGPT often just gives generic readings, while DeepSeek offers more concrete predictions," Zheng says. Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box, Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. alert B. biology C. blanket D. feedback E. functioning F. grounded G.instructed H. involuntary I. pace J.registered K. signaling The Positive Power of a Good Sigh Research shows that intentional sighing can help reducing stress and increasing feelings of control. The average person sighs about 12 times per hour, often as a(n) 31 reflex that we don't even notice."Messages from the respiratory ("吸的)system have top priority over pretty much any other ones from the body,especially when there's a sudden change. So when you change your pattern of breathing, you suddenly change all of the 32 up to the brain," says Dr. Patricia Gerbarg, a psychiatrist. When you sigh, you're reinflating hundreds of millions of tiny air sacs in the lungs. That improves lung 33 by suddenly expanding, clearing and opening up airways. In a study, Gerbarg and colleagues examined a technique known as "cyclic sighing." To produce a sigh, people were 34 to close their lips and slowly inhale through the nose. The researchers found that participants who practiced cyclic sighing every day for a month 35 reduced anxiety and increased positive emotions, with better results than other relaxation techniques such as mindful meditation. "The way you 36 your breath also plays a significant role in how you feel. James Nestor, a science journalist and the author of "Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art," explains that most people take too many breaths per minute:"When we overbreathe, we send the nervous system signals that we're stressed, which further disrupts our breathing pattern. It's a negative 37 loop." Intentionally heaving a physiological sigh is one way to recalibrate(重新校准)overbreathing too much or holding our breath, as we do when we're anxious. "This isn't a placebo (安慰剂) or something magical,it's 38 ," says Nestor. This isn't to say we should be sighing all day long. Gerbarg also notes that intentional, repeated sighing may not be helpful for individuals with asthma(哮喘). "I wish there was just a(n)39 prescription that could give everybody, but everyone's going to respond differently," Nestor says. "Asthmatics and panic sufferers need personalized guidance depending on their size, activity level and emotional state to meet their unique sighing needs, unlike ultramarathoners." So rather than rigidly following a protocol, individuals should find out what feels best. Beyond the specific psychological benefits of sighing, the larger message of the sigh is promising. Regardless of what's challenging in this moment, we are wired to reset ourselves, and can count on our bodies to keep us 40 . III. Reading Comprehension(45 分) Section A(每题1分，共15分) Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Like many of the researchers who study how people find their way from place to place, David Uttal is a poor navigator. The world is full of people like Uttal - and their 41 , the folks who always seem to know exactly where they are. Scientists sometimes measure navigational ability by asking someone to point toward an out - of - sight location ---or, more 42 , to imagine they are someplace else and point in the direction of a third location - and it's obvious that some people are better at it than others. "People are never perfect, but someone can be as 43_ as single - degree off, which is incredible," says Nora Newcombe, a cognitive psychologist at Temple University, But others, when asked to indicate the target's direction, seem to point at random. "They have literally no idea where it is”. While it's easy to show that people 44 in navigational ability, it has proved much harder for scientists to explain why. Research suggests that to some extent, navigation skills are shaped by 45 . The importance of a person's environment is underscored by a recent look at the role of 46in navigation. In 2020, Margherita Malanchini, a psychologist at Queen Mary University of London, and her colleagues compared the performance of more than 2,600 identical and nonidentical twins as they navigated through a virtual environment, to test whether navigational ability runs in families. It does, they found but only 47 .Instead,the biggest contributor to people's performance was what geneticists call "nonshared environmental factors"- that is, the 48 experiences each person accumulates as their life unfolds. 49 factors were also associated with wayfinding skills, they found. 50 , people from Nordic countries tended to be slightly better navigators. It is perhaps because the sport of cross - country running is 51 in those countries. Country folk did better, on average, than people from cities. And among city - dwellers, those from cities with 52 street networks such as those in the older parts of European cities did better than those from cities like Chicago, where the streets form a regular grid. Results like these suggest that an individual's life experience may be one of the biggest determinants of how well they navigate.53 may even underlie one of the most consistent findings -- and cliches - in navigation: that men tend to perform better than women. Turns out this gender gap is more a question of culture and experience than of 54 ability. Nordic countries, for example, where gender equality is greatest, show almost no difference in navigation. In contrast, men far outperform women in places where women face cultural 55 imposed on exploring their environment on their own, such as Middle Eastern countries. 41.A.opposites B.counterparts C.admirers D.rivals 42.A.systematic B. challenging C.surprising D.realistic 43.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Eleanor moved through the world like an unnoticed shadow, serving the needs of others without ever asking for recognition. At 45, she was well past the age where youthful dreams seemed to have any relevance to her current life.She worked as a nurse at the local hospital, where her days were filled with routine, such as the whispers of suffering patients, and the long corridors. Her job provided a stable income, but little else. Stability, after all, was not fulfillment. Every evening, Eleanor walked home past the houses on Maple Street, homes where windows were often left open to let out the sounds of family life. Inside, there were dinners, voices raised in laughter, and all the warmth of lives shared. Eleanor would walk on, her pace steady, her gaze forward, never pausing to look inside. But on one such walk!home, she found herself slowing, not in front of the houses on Maple Street, but in front of a small gallery, its window displaying the work of local artists. It was a watercolor painting, a scene of waves crashing against a cliff, the colors mixing in shades of deep blue and black. It stopped her in her tracks. Years before, in a life she had all but forgotten, Eleanor had been a painter. She had studied art in college, and for a time, she had known for her bold use of color and her abstract interpretations of landscapes. Her professors had spoken of promise, but life had a way of steering her in different directions. One marriage, two children, and a divorce later Eleanor found herself in a profession she had never intended to pursue, her brushes and paints packed away in the basement. The gallery window was the first thing in years that made her remember. She stood before it for what seemed like hours, the sea pulling at her like a long - lost friend. A single thought began to form in her mind, weak at first but growing bolder with each passing second. Eleanor's feet, however, remained planted on the sidewalk. What right did she have, she thought, to reclaim a dream she had thrown away so long ago? Dreams, once put off, seldom found their way back. But something stirred within her something buried beneath years of practicality and sacrifice. She went home that evening, but not to the quiet hum of her routine. Instead, she went to the basement, past the boxes of unused furniture, to where her old canvas and paints lay hidden under a dusty cloth. They were still there, still hers. And for the first time in years, she smiled. 56. The passage is mainly about . A. the inner conflict of a woman balancing work and parenting duty B. a woman's relationship with her family and her struggle to repair it C.a woman's sense of loss and rediscovery of a passion long set aside D. the difficulties a woman had when adjusting herself to a new position 57. Which of the following best describes Eleanor's feeling as she walked past the homes on Maple Street? A. Relief that she did not have to manage a busy household. B. Longing for the kind of life she saw through the windows C.Indifference to the everyday lives of the families around her. D. Satisfaction with the life she had carefully chosen for herself 58. The main purpose of paragraph 3 is to . A.explain how Eleanor's early career as an artist shaped her future B. show that Eleanor had a fulfilling life before her marriage ended C.suggest that Eleanor's interest in painting never truly faded away D. highlight the distance Eleanor felt between her present and past life 59. In paragraph 5, Eleanor's feet remained planted on the sidewalk because . A.she was overwhelmed by a sudden flood of past memories B. she was physically worn out after a long day at the hospital C.she was attracted by the painting and was unwilling to leave D.she was hesitant about pursuing the dream she had left behind (B) Introduction The objective of the experiment is to study the relationship of temperature and pressure of an ideal gas (air) that was heated in a closed container, and to test whether the ideal equation (方程) of state holds. In the equation, pV = mRT, p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume, m is the mass, R is a constant, and T is temperature. Procedures In this experiment, air (an ideal gas) was heated in a pressure vessel with a volume of 1 liter. Attached to this pressure vessel were two transducers (传感 器 ) to measure the pressure and the temperature, respectively, of the air inside the vessel, Both of these transducers produced voltage (电压) signals (in Volts) that were later calibrated (换算) to the pressure (kPa) and temperature (K) of the air through another equation, Following this, plotted figures (see Appendix )based on these calibrated values were generated for analysis. In addition, the theoretical temperature (K) of air was calculated as a finction of the measured pressured values (kPa). Results and Discussion The voltages as measured for the pressure and temperature transducers appear in Table A-l of the Appendix, which are then calibrated to values of pressure and temperature that are shown the third and fourth columns of Table A-l. From these values, a graph between temperature and pressure was created (Figure A-l). As can be seen from the graph, the relationship of temperature versus pressure is roughly linear. As part of this experiment, the theoretical values of temperature were calculated for cach measured pressure value.In this calculation. which used the ideal gas equation, the volume and mass were assumed to be constant. These theoretical values of temperature are shown in the final column of Table A-1. From the third column and the final column arose. Figure A-2, a graph of ideal temperature versus pressure. As shown in this graph, the relationship between temperature and pressure is exactly linear. Appendix:Experimental Data and Plots Table A-1. Data From the Experiment 60. The passage is most probably taken from . A. a research proposal B. an instruction manual C. a lab report D. a patent application form 61.Which of the following most accurately describes the voltage signals produced by the transducers? A. They are proportional to the volume of the gas inside the vessel. B. They automatically adjust the pressure in the vessel in response to temperature changes C. They serve as indirect measurements of the physical properties to be examined in the experiment. D. They are used to indicate whether the electrical current through the system exceeds safety standards. 62. Which of the following diagrams best represents Figure A-1? (C) Our cultural is obsessed with eliminating, “disfluencies" in our speech. Actually, saying um is no character flaw, but an organic feature of speech: far from distracting listeners, there's evidence that it focuses their attention in ways that enhance comprehension. Disfluencies arise mainly because of the time pressures in speaking. Speakers don't have a tape in their mind and then mentally press “play" when they proceed. Instead, speakers launch into speech with only a vague sense of how the sentence will unfold, taking it on faith that by the time they've finished the earlier portions of the sentence, they'll have worked out exactly what to say in the later portions. Occasionally, it takes longer than expected to find the right phrase. Saying “um” is the speaker's way of signaling that processing is ongoing, the verbal equivalent of a computer's spinning circle. People sometimes have more disfluencies while speaking in public because they are trying hard not to misspeak. Since disfluencies show that a speaker is thinking carefully about what she is about to say, they provide useful information to listeners, cueing them to focus attention on upcoming content that's likely to be meaty. Disfluencies can also improve our comprehension of longer pieces of content, Psychologist Duane Watson modified recordings of a speaker's retellings of passages from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and compared how well listeners remembered versions that were cleaned of all disfluencies as opposed to ones that contained an average number of ums and uhs (about two instances out of every 100 words). He found that hearers remembered plot points better after listening to the disfluent versions, with enhanced memory apparent even for plot points that weren't preceded by a disfluency Stripping a speech of ums and uhs appears to be doing listeners no favors. Moreover, there's reason to question the implicit assumption that disfluencies reveal a speaker's lack of knowledge.In a study led by Kathryn Womack, experienced physicians and residents in training looked at images of various skin conditions while talking their way to a diagnosis. Not surprisingly, the expert doctors were more accurate in their diagnoses than the residents. They also produced more complex sentences - and a greater number of disfluencies giving lie to the notion that disfluencies reflect a lack of control over one's material. On the contrary, the study's authors suggest that the experienced doctors had more disfluent speech because they were sifting through a larger body of knowledge and constructing more detailed explanations while planning their speech. 63, The main purpose of the passage is to . A. correct a misunderstanding of a communicative behavior B. explain the psychological effects of disfluencies on listeners C. propose solutions to a problem in interpersonal communication D. discuss the reasons behind people's distaste for hesitation in speech 64. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that . A.speaking is similar to mechanically reciting information B. speakers do not have enough time for selecting appropriate words C.the invention of recording technologies influences the way we speak D.speakers do not construct sentences in minds before speaking 65. Which of the following most accurately describes the two experiments in paragraphs 4 and 5? A. Watson informed study subjects of the purpose ofthe experiment while Womack concealed it. B. Watson manipulated disfluencies in recorded speech, while Womack observed them in natural speech C. Both of the two experiments involved using two different groups of participants for making comparison D. Watson tested how disfluency affects memory, while Womack examined its effect on illness treatment. 66. According to the last paragraph, the historical lack of concern for disfluencies can be attributed to . A. the cultural preference for spontaneous speech in speaking B. the absence of speech training programs for public speakers C.the view that disfluencies had nothing to do with one's image D. the fact that spoken language could not be stored and replayed 第II卷(共 50分) IV.Summary Writing(10 分) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. 71. A College Degree Is No Guarantee of a Good life College is often discussed as an investment in the future. The financial benefits of a college education do indeed look great, on average. According to a study, as of 2011 a college degree delivered an annual return of more than 1spercent per year. That's a good deal, “The return to college is more than double the average return over the last 60 years experienced in the stock market," they noted, “and more than five times the return to investments in gold or housing." Sadly, as investors like to say, past performance is no guarantee of future returns. Many analysts see wage growth developing slowly for college graduates, with average starting salaries increasing just 1 .4 percent from 2015 to 2018-aperiod when the economy was roaring. When you figure in the costs, the plot thickens even more. From 1989 to 2016college tuition and fees went up by 98 percent. This has led to a lot of student-loan debt. According to the Federal Reserve, the average person with student loans in 2017 owed $32,731. People who go to college are slightly likelier to report that they are happy about their lives than those who don't go to college. In 2011, researchers found that 89 percent of high-school graduates who did not attend college said they were happy or very happy, compared with 94 percent of bachelor's-degree holders. However, it is not at all clear in the scholarly literature that education causes greater happiness. Some scholars have found that, when controlling for other factors in life such as income and religious faith, education by itself has no independent explanatory power over happiness. And there's all that student debt to consider. According to a study from 2014, student debt is negatively linked with financial and physical health and sense of purpose, and is associated with lower well-being on these dimensions for along as 25 years after graduation. It is easy to imagine how $393 per month (the average student-loan payment) could dampen (减弱) one's spirits even in service of a career you love, let alone one you don't.
