Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years? Jane Addams (1860～1935) Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community (社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Rachel Carson (1907～1964) If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans. Sandra Day O’Connor (1930～present) When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court. Rosa Parks (1913～2005) On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.” said Parks. 21. What is Jane Addams noted for in history? A. Her social work. B. Her teaching skills. C. Her efforts to win a prize. D. Her community background. 22. What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm? A. The poor financial conditions. B. Her lack of proper training in law. C. Her little work experience in court. D. The discrimination against women. 23. What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text? A. They are pioneers. B. They are peace-lovers. C. They are truly creative. D. They are highly educated. B Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. By 2048, some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life. By the middle of the century, it’s believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world’s tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi. By mid-century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, measures 828 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like. At height extremes, a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbon-based materials. 24. How will the heating system be controlled in the future? A. Through sensors. B. Through the net. C. Through mobiles. D. Through switches. 25. What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster? A. They can protect people against harm. B. They can transport people into space. C. They can seek help automatically. D. They can recover by themselves. 26. What’s likely to be the advantage of Multi? A. Seeing the scenes as you please. B. Connecting the earth with the space. C. Allowing vehicles to travel into buildings. D. Making it possible to build high buildings. 27. What does the underlined word “they” (Para.3) most probably refer to? A. Scientists. B. German engineers. C. Virtual screens. D. Future buildings. C Howard Florey was born on the 24th September, 1898. He studied medicine at the University of Adelaide in Britain. Florey gathered a team of scientists in the 1930s, when working as a team was not common. He realized that science had reached a point where a team of specialists was needed, because the job was too hard for one person. In 1940, the team performed one of the most important medical experiments in history. They tested penicillin (青霉素), the substance they had created for the first time. This experiment was successful. They then had to test penicillin on humans. In 1941, their first patient was given penicillin and within a day he was starting to recover. However, Florey didn’t have enough of the drug and unfortunately the patient died. Determined to help people, Florey traveled to South Africa to use penicillin on wounded soldiers fighting in the war. His work was seen as a miracle. He saved millions of lives in World War Ⅱ. His role as the leader of the team of scientists that discovered and developed penicillin won him the Nobel Prize in 1945. He received many other awards as well. Howard Florey took pride in what he did, but not once did his achievements go to his head. When describing his achievements, he said, “They were a terrible amount of luck that involved many others. All we did was do some experiments and have luck to come across a substance with astonishing properties (性质).” Howard Florey was a determined man. Even though he had many setbacks (挫折), he continued to try to help the world. He kept going on, trying, failing but trying again until he reached his dreams. 28. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To give a brief introduction of Howard Florey to readers. B. To discuss the contributions Howard made in World War Ⅱ. C. To show penicillin is an effective medicine to cure diseases. D. To explain how Howard Florey succeeded in testing penicillin. 29. From the second paragraph we can see that ______. A. penicillin was first tested in human in 1940 B. Howard’s team made a lot of penicillin in 1940 C. the first experiment with penicillin on human failed D. the first patient given penicillin died because of a lack of it 30. Why did Howard Florey travel to South Africa? A. He wanted to compete for the Nobel Prize. B. He wanted to make a miracle in medical world. C. He wanted to test whether penicillin was useful. D. He wanted to use penicillin to save soldiers’ lives. 31. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that Howard Florey is ______. A. determined B. proud C. modest D. lucky D Fairs and theme parks never seem to lose their attraction. My kids love them as much as I do. Not everyone will agree with me though. My wife is terrified of anything more exciting than the merry-go-round. So why do I love Blackpool’s Big One while she goes white on hearing the words “roller coaster (过山车)”? According to psychologists, it comes down to something called a “Type T” personality. Type T’s are thrill-seekers who welcome the uncertainty of activities that most people would find hair-raising. It seems some of us enjoy the physical sensations associated with fear: the adrenaline (肾上腺素) rush and the beating heart. Scary rides make us feel alive. Terrifying experiences encourage a sense of excitement once we’re back on solid ground though we only enjoy them when we’re within a “protective frame” that assures us that deep down, we’re still safe. Recent research has found certain genes (基因) which may be responsible for those of us with Type T personalities. Biochemists have separated a gene called DRD4 which seems more common in rollercoaster lovers like me. New technologies have allowed engineers to design coasters that change speeds quickly, shoot up hundreds of feet into the air and make all sorts of twists. Research suggests that extreme fairground rides tend to appeal particularly to those of us who lead stressful, structured or controlled lives. It’s certainly true that roller coasters are a way of breaking out of the humdrum (乏味的) expectations of everyday life. Theme parks allow us to act like children again, to experience true excitement and behave a little wildly. Where else as an adult can you scream at the top of your lungs and throw your arms in the air without being sent for psychological evaluation? If you’re looking for a great place this summer where you can get in touch with your inner risk-taker, head for the nearest theme park. It’s a scream! 32. What can we learn about the author’s wife? A. She gets excited easily. B. She rarely disagrees with the author. C. She fears extreme rides. D. She loves Blackpool’s Big One. 33. What do people with Type T personalities tend to do? A. Put their lives at risk B. Enjoy adventurous experiences. C. Stay energetic all the time. D. Avoid the “protective frame”. 34. What has recent research revealed about the Type T personality? A. It is common among people. B. It is genetically determined. C. It is caused by living separately. D. It is a result of a physical disorder. 35. What’s the main reason why the author appreciates extreme fairground rides? A. They are a replacement for psychological evaluation. B. They contribute to parent-kid relationships C. They are technologically designed. D. They help relieve stress. 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。 Futurologists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050.

All the monkeys in the group shouted,‘ Fire, Fire, Fire .Yeah, we got fire.’ A couple of monkeys tried to catch the firefly and it escaped. They were sad as they could not catch the fire. They believed that they couldn't live in the cold if they didn't get fire. The next night, again they saw many fireflies. After several attempts, the monkeys caught a few fireflies. They put the fireflies in a hole dug in the land and tried to blow the fireflies. They blew the fireflies very hard without knowing the fact that they were fireflies. An owl（猫头鹰）was watching the activities of the monkeys. The owl reached the monkeys and told them , ‘Hey, those are not fire! They were fireflies. You won't be able to make fire from it.’ The monkey laughed at the owl. One monkey replied,‘Hey ,old owl, you don't know anything about how to make fire. Don't disturb us!’ The old owl warned the monkeys again and asked them to stop their foolish act. ‘ Monkeys ,you cannot make fire from the fireflies! Please hear my words.’ The monkeys tried to make fire from the fireflies. The owl told them again to stop their foolish act . ‘You are struggling so much. Go back to take your shelter in a nearby cave. You can save yourselves from the freezing cold! You won't get fire.’ 注意： 1.所需写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: One monkey shouted at the owl ____________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: They went back to shelter themselves ____________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 蒙阴县实验中学2025级高二上学期第一次月考 英语 第一部分 听力[共两节，满分30分] 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读两遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

I’m so glad to be here. Today I’m going to share my travelling experience with you. As a documentary director of nature, I always love to travel. The favourite place I have ever visited is Africa. I love the excitement of seeing animals running freely in the wild. It is fantastic. I still remember the adventure of camping when I was on safari. Besides Africa, I have visited many other places such as France, Italy, Germany, Japan, and New Zealand. People often ask me why I love to travel. How couldn’t anyone love travelling? It is so attractive to see new things, meet new people, and taste new foods. However, I have to admit that travelling costs a lot of money. I have to pay for the hotel room and food. In addition, tourist attractions are usually expensive. Although I complain about the high cost of traveling, I wouldn’t choose to spend my money in any other way. 第二部分 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 You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years? Jane Addams (1860～1935) Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community (社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Rachel Carson (1907～1964) If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans. Sandra Day O’Connor (1930～present) When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court. Rosa Parks (1913～2005) On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.” said Parks. 21. What is Jane Addams noted for in history? A. Her social work. B. Her teaching skills. C. Her efforts to win a prize. D. Her community background. 22. What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm? A. The poor financial conditions. B. Her lack of proper training in law. C. Her little work experience in court. D. The discrimination against women. 23. What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text? A. They are pioneers. B. They are peace-lovers. C. They are truly creative. D. They are highly educated. 【答案】21. A 22. D 23. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了过去100年中四位杰出女性在社会工作、环境保护、法律和民权运动领域的贡献。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Jane Addams部分中“Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace.(任何得到过社会工作者帮助的人都要感谢简·亚当斯。亚当斯帮助穷人，并为和平而努力。)”可知，简·亚当斯在历史上以其社会工作而闻名。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Sandra Day O’Connor部分中“When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman.(1952年，桑德拉·戴·奥康纳在斯坦福法学院以班级第三名的成绩毕业时，却因为她是女性而无法在律师事务所找到工作。)”可知，奥康纳被律师事务所拒绝的原因是对女性的歧视。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据Jane Addams部分中“In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.(1931年，亚当斯成为第一位获得诺贝尔和平奖的美国女性。)”、Rachel Carson部分中“If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.(如果不是雷切尔·卡森，环保运动可能不会存在。)”、Sandra Day O’Connor部分中“in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court (1981年，第一位加入美国最高法院的女性。)”以及Rosa Parks部分中“Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year and kicked off the civil-rights movement.(她这一简单的举动让帕克斯进了监狱。但这也引发了蒙哥马利抵制公共汽车运动。这场运动持续了一年多，并拉开了民权运动的序幕。)”可知，文章提到的四位女性都在各自领域开创了先河，她们都是先驱者。 B Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. By 2048, some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life. By the middle of the century, it’s believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world’s tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi. By mid-century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, measures 828 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like. At height extremes, a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbon-based materials. 24. How will the heating system be controlled in the future? A. Through sensors. B. Through the net. C. Through mobiles. D. Through switches. 25. What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster? A. They can protect people against harm. B. They can transport people into space. C. They can seek help automatically. D. They can recover by themselves. 26. What’s likely to be the advantage of Multi? A. Seeing the scenes as you please. B. Connecting the earth with the space. C. Allowing vehicles to travel into buildings. D. Making it possible to build high buildings. 27. What does the underlined word “they” (Para.3) most probably refer to? A. Scientists. B. German engineers. C. Virtual screens. D. Future buildings. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了未来学家对未来30年建筑发展的预测，包括智能建筑、自愈材料、超高层建筑以及太空港等。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“By the middle of the century, it’s believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. (到本世纪中叶，人们相信当需要打开暖气时，建筑将能够通过各种传感器与人们“对话”)”可知，未来的供暖系统将通过传感器来控制。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. (在未来30年内，建筑将由混凝土塑料和可变形材料制成。到那时，它们都能自我修复)”可知，未来的建筑在灾难中能够自我修复。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world’s tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi. (随着建筑师们竞相开发世界上最高的建筑，将需要新型电梯，车辆甚至可以通过这些电梯进入建筑物。德国工程师已经开始研究这种名为Multi的技术)”可知，Multi的优势在于它允许车辆进入建筑物。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“By mid-century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. (到本世纪中叶，科学家相信建筑将有数英里高。其中一些可能非常大，它们可以充当小城市)”可知，“they”指代的是前文提到的“buildings”，即未来的建筑。 C Howard Florey was born on the 24th September, 1898. He studied medicine at the University of Adelaide in Britain. Florey gathered a team of scientists in the 1930s, when working as a team was not common. He realized that science had reached a point where a team of specialists was needed, because the job was too hard for one person. In 1940, the team performed one of the most important medical experiments in history. They tested penicillin (青霉素), the substance they had created for the first time. This experiment was successful. They then had to test penicillin on humans. In 1941, their first patient was given penicillin and within a day he was starting to recover. However, Florey didn’t have enough of the drug and unfortunately the patient died. Determined to help people, Florey traveled to South Africa to use penicillin on wounded soldiers fighting in the war. His work was seen as a miracle. He saved millions of lives in World War Ⅱ. His role as the leader of the team of scientists that discovered and developed penicillin won him the Nobel Prize in 1945. He received many other awards as well. Howard Florey took pride in what he did, but not once did his achievements go to his head. When describing his achievements, he said, “They were a terrible amount of luck that involved many others. All we did was do some experiments and have luck to come across a substance with astonishing properties (性质).” Howard Florey was a determined man. Even though he had many setbacks (挫折), he continued to try to help the world. He kept going on, trying, failing but trying again until he reached his dreams. 28. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To give a brief introduction of Howard Florey to readers. B. To discuss the contributions Howard made in World War Ⅱ. C. To show penicillin is an effective medicine to cure diseases. D. To explain how Howard Florey succeeded in testing penicillin. 29. From the second paragraph we can see that ______. A. penicillin was first tested in human in 1940 B. Howard’s team made a lot of penicillin in 1940 C. the first experiment with penicillin on human failed D. the first patient given penicillin died because of a lack of it 30. Why did Howard Florey travel to South Africa? A. He wanted to compete for the Nobel Prize. B. He wanted to make a miracle in medical world. C. He wanted to test whether penicillin was useful. D. He wanted to use penicillin to save soldiers’ lives. 31. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that Howard Florey is ______. A. determined B. proud C. modest D. lucky 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文简要介绍霍华德・弗洛里研发青霉素的经历、贡献以及谦逊的品格。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章第一段介绍了Howard Florey的出生和求学经历，第二、三段介绍了他带领团队研发青霉素并在二战中救治伤员的伟大贡献，第四、五段总结了他谦虚和坚定的优秀品质。因此作者写这篇文章的主要目的是向读者简要介绍Howard Florey的生平事迹。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In 1941, their first patient was given penicillin and within a day he was starting to recover. However, Florey didn’t have enough of the drug and unfortunately the patient died.(1941年，他们的第一位病人使用了青霉素，一天之内他开始康复。然而，弗洛里没有足够的这种药物，不幸的是这名病人去世了)”可知，首位接受青霉素治疗的病人因药物不足死亡。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Determined to help people, Florey traveled to South Africa to use penicillin on wounded soldiers fighting in the war.(下定决心帮助人们，弗洛里前往南非，把青霉素用在参战受伤的士兵身上)”可知，他前往南非是想用青霉素拯救士兵的生命。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Howard Florey took pride in what he did, but not once did his achievements go to his head. When describing his achievements, he said, “They were a terrible amount of luck that involved many others.(霍华德・弗洛里为自己的事业感到自豪，但他从未被成就冲昏头脑。谈及自己的成果时，他说：“这很大程度上靠运气，也离不开许许多多其他人的付出。”)”可知，他很谦逊。 D Fairs and theme parks never seem to lose their attraction. My kids love them as much as I do. Not everyone will agree with me though. My wife is terrified of anything more exciting than the merry-go-round. So why do I love Blackpool’s Big One while she goes white on hearing the words “roller coaster (过山车)”? According to psychologists, it comes down to something called a “Type T” personality. Type T’s are thrill-seekers who welcome the uncertainty of activities that most people would find hair-raising. It seems some of us enjoy the physical sensations associated with fear: the adrenaline (肾上腺素) rush and the beating heart. Scary rides make us feel alive. Terrifying experiences encourage a sense of excitement once we’re back on solid ground though we only enjoy them when we’re within a “protective frame” that assures us that deep down, we’re still safe. Recent research has found certain genes (基因) which may be responsible for those of us with Type T personalities. Biochemists have separated a gene called DRD4 which seems more common in rollercoaster lovers like me. New technologies have allowed engineers to design coasters that change speeds quickly, shoot up hundreds of feet into the air and make all sorts of twists. Research suggests that extreme fairground rides tend to appeal particularly to those of us who lead stressful, structured or controlled lives. It’s certainly true that roller coasters are a way of breaking out of the humdrum (乏味的) expectations of everyday life. Theme parks allow us to act like children again, to experience true excitement and behave a little wildly. Where else as an adult can you scream at the top of your lungs and throw your arms in the air without being sent for psychological evaluation? If you’re looking for a great place this summer where you can get in touch with your inner risk-taker, head for the nearest theme park. It’s a scream! 32. What can we learn about the author’s wife? A. She gets excited easily. B. She rarely disagrees with the author. C. She fears extreme rides. D. She loves Blackpool’s Big One. 33. What do people with Type T personalities tend to do? A. Put their lives at risk B. Enjoy adventurous experiences. C. Stay energetic all the time. D. Avoid the “protective frame”. 34. What has recent research revealed about the Type T personality? A. It is common among people. B. It is genetically determined. C. It is caused by living separately. D. It is a result of a physical disorder. 35. What’s the main reason why the author appreciates extreme fairground rides? A. They are a replacement for psychological evaluation. B. They contribute to parent-kid relationships C. They are technologically designed. D. They help relieve stress. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍 T 型人格喜爱刺激项目的特点、相关基因研究以及过山车等游乐项目对人们的意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“My wife is terrified of anything more exciting than the merry-go-round. So why do I love Blackpool’s Big One while she goes white on hearing the words “roller coaster (过山车)”?(我的妻子害怕任何比旋转木马更刺激的东西。那么为什么我喜欢布莱克浦的Big One过山车，而她一听到“过山车”这几个字就脸色发白呢)” 可知，作者的妻子害怕极限游乐设施。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Type T’s are thrill-seekers who welcome the uncertainty of activities that most people would find hair-raising.(T型人格者是寻求刺激的人，他们接受大多数人会觉得毛骨悚然的活动所带来的不确定性)”可知，T型人格的人倾向于享受冒险的体验。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Recent research has found certain genes (基因) which may be responsible for those of us with Type T personalities. Biochemists have separated a gene called DRD4 which seems more common in rollercoaster lovers like me.(最近的研究发现了某些基因，这些基因可能是我们当中拥有T型人格的原因。生物化学家已经分离出一种名为DRD4的基因，该基因在像我这样的过山车爱好者身上似乎更为常见)”可知，近期研究表明T型人格和基因有关，由基因决定。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Research suggests that extreme fairground rides tend to appeal particularly to those of us who lead stressful, structured or controlled lives. It’s certainly true that roller coasters are a way of breaking out of the humdrum (乏味的) expectations of everyday life.(研究表明，极限游乐场项目尤其容易吸引我们当中那些过着充满压力、循规蹈矩、受约束生活的人。过山车确实是一种摆脱日常生活乏味期许的方式)”可知，作者喜欢极限游乐项目主要是因为它们有助于释放压力。 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。 Futurologists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050.

Medical technology will have controlled many diseases. D. Cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. E. No one can predict what our world will look like in the near future. F. So many changes have taken place in this planet that there will be no life existing on it. G. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu” and a computer will send the program directly to the television. 【答案】36. G 37. D 38. A 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章对2050年人们的生活将会发生哪些变化进行了预测。 【36题详解】 本段第一句中提到电视频道将会消失，该空应紧承上文，介绍在没有电视频道的情况下人们如何选择电视节目。由此可知，G. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu” and a computer will send the program directly to the television.(相反，人们将从“菜单”中选择一个节目，然后计算机将把该节目直接发送到电视上)符合语境。故选G。 【37题详解】 第三段主要介绍了2050年的交通，中心词是car。只有D项Cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast.(汽车将使用新的、清洁的燃料，而且速度非常快)与这一话题有关。故选D。 【38题详解】 第四段主要是围绕机器人的普遍应用展开的，A项Robots will have replaced people in factories.(在工厂里机器人将代替人们来工作)符合该段语境。故选A。 【39题详解】 根据第五段可知，到2050年，眼盲的人和耳聋的人将能在医疗技术的帮助下恢复视力和听力，而不需要像现在一样只能借助某些辅助设备，故C项Medical technology will have controlled many diseases.(医疗技术将会战胜很多疾病)总领本段。故选C。 【40题详解】 最后一段主要是围绕克隆技术展开的，只有B项Scientists have already produced clones of animals.(科学家们已经克隆出了动物)与该话题有关。故选B。 第三部分 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。 I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it, when I was 13.

A group of monkeys arrived at the forest. It was winter , and the monkeys struggled hard to survive the freezing cold nights. They were hunting for fire to get warm. One night, they saw a firefly（萤火虫）and considered it a dab（少量）of fire. All the monkeys in the group shouted,‘ Fire, Fire, Fire .Yeah, we got fire.’ A couple of monkeys tried to catch the firefly and it escaped. They were sad as they could not catch the fire. They believed that they couldn't live in the cold if they didn't get fire. The next night, again they saw many fireflies. After several attempts, the monkeys caught a few fireflies. They put the fireflies in a hole dug in the land and tried to blow the fireflies. They blew the fireflies very hard without knowing the fact that they were fireflies. An owl（猫头鹰）was watching the activities of the monkeys. The owl reached the monkeys and told them , ‘Hey, those are not fire! They were fireflies. You won't be able to make fire from it.’ The monkey laughed at the owl. One monkey replied,‘Hey ,old owl, you don't know anything about how to make fire. Don't disturb us!’ The old owl warned the monkeys again and asked them to stop their foolish act. ‘ Monkeys ,you cannot make fire from the fireflies! Please hear my words.’ The monkeys tried to make fire from the fireflies. The owl told them again to stop their foolish act . ‘You are struggling so much. Go back to take your shelter in a nearby cave. You can save yourselves from the freezing cold! You won't get fire.’ 注意： 1.所需写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: One monkey shouted at the owl ____________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: They went back to shelter themselves ____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1 One monkey shouted at the owl and the owl left the place. The monkeys were simply doing the foolish activity for several hours and it was almost midnight. Although they tried their best, they had to give up. They were very tired and realized that the words of the owl were correct. It was true that they couldn’t succeed in making fire from the fireflies. Paragraph 2 They went back to shelter themselves in the cave and escape from the cold. Since then, the monkeys never make fire from fireflies. They save themselves from the freezing cold in their cave every winter. Sometimes people act like monkeys. Some people may go wrong once in a while, but they persist in doing it , which does no good to themselves. They should seek and accept the advice provided by others. Maybe others’ advice is valuable for them. 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇读后续写。 【详解】通读全文可知，短文叙述了几个世纪前，有一个非常大，茂密和黑暗的森林。一群猴子来到了森林。那是冬天，猴子们拼命地在寒冷的夜晚生存。猴子们认为萤火虫能够生火，于是抓了很多萤火虫，一旁的猫头鹰，看到了这一幕，告诉猴子萤火虫是不能用来生火，但是遭到了猴子的质疑。续写一通过描述猴子反复尝试猫头鹰所说的话，才确信猫头鹰所说的是正确的，这一描述凸显了猴子的愚蠢和猫头鹰的智慧。 续写二猴子回到山洞里避寒。从那以后，猴子们再也不从萤火虫身上生火了。他们每年冬天都在山洞里避寒。有时人的行为像猴子。有些人可能偶尔会犯错，但他们坚持这样做，这对自己没有好处。他们应该寻求并接受他人的建议。也许别人的建议对他们很有价值。 【点睛】本文段一里使用了一些主从复合句如although引导的让步状语从句Although they tried their best, they had to give up.；同时也还使用了主语从句如It was true that they couldn’t succeed in making fire from the fireflies.此句是形式主语it后面that引导的是真正的主语，因为其是句子，故称之为主语从句。 本文段二里使用了并列从句的转折关系词but引导的句子，而且后接由which引导的定语从句，堪称高级句子。Some people may go wrong once in a while, but they persist in doing it , which does no good to themselves.还使用了一些高级词汇如persist in doing；does no good to；seek and accept the advice provided by；is valuable for。本篇续写全文表达地道，句型多变，词汇使用高级，完全符合高分范畴的作文模范。 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $高中英语听力模拟试题14，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话读两遍。Do you think we missed IT?
