2014 年河南省实验中学高三第三次模拟考试英语 第 I 卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分）（略） 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 Willa Cather once said，"When people ask me whether writing has been a hard or easy road， I always answer with the famous saying：The end is nothing; the road is all. That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never used the computer with the thought that one more task had to be done.” Like most writers，Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they broug ht her，but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were，like her，simple and full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska，where she grew from child to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain with its wild flowers，wheat fields and rivers. “It's a rather strange thing about the flat country，”she wrote later. “It takes hold of you，it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull；they like a church tower，an old factory，a waterfall，the country all made to look like a German Christmas card…But when I come to the open plain，something happens. I'm home. I breathe differently.” 21. Willa Cather wrote because she found writing_______.

Worried shoppers rushed to stores and supermarkets in the country for salt, with the belief that it might protect them from potential nuclear radiation spreading from Japan. Many rushed to stores to buy as much iodized salt (加碘盐)as possible because of the rumor that iodized salt could help prevent radiation poisoning spreading from Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi power plant. Consumers also worried that the nuclear cloud might spread to China by air and sea, polluting food sources, including salt taken from the sea. The wave of panic buying spread quickly across the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten times in some cities. www..com Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province，faced sudden shortages. The government took measures to guarantee enough supply and to stabilize（稳定）the market. It also dismissed the nuclear rumors, saying the nuclear fallout was unlikely to reach the country, and that salt did not help to prevent radiation poisoning. Local governments have stepped in to stabilize the market, too. As well, state-owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply. Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared. Wang Yun, the General Manager of Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, "Our storage can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market." 29. People made panic purchases of salt for the reasons EXCEPT______________. A. salt might protect them from potential nuclear radiation B. nuclear radiation might pollute food sources C. nuclear radiation might pollute salt taken from the sea D. there would be a shortage of salt on the market 30.

D 30. C 31. B D Bad teeth can be painful and worse. They can even be deadly. Infections(感染) of the gums (牙龈) and the teeth can cause bacteria(细菌）to go into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, in 2007, doctors in the Washington area said a boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain. They said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care(牙齿保健) he needed. He was twelve years old. Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow the growth of bacteria and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say a baby's gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding. Use a cloth with a little warm water. Do the same if a baby is fed with a bottle. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, only give the child water. When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently. The use of fluoride(氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel(法琅质)， the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming. 32. According to the passage, bad teeth can be ____________. A. painful B. deadly C. preventive D. incurable 33. The writer uses the boy's death as an example to show that _______. A. not only adults but the young may suffer from teeth problem B. babies with bad teeth can easily die C. the doctors should be responsible for the case D. the boy was not fed with his breast milk 34. What's the main idea of paragraph 4 and 5? A. How to develop babies' teeth. B. Why to protect babies' teeth C. How to keep babies' teeth clean D. Why to keep babies' teeth clean 35. The passage tells us that _______. A. Enamel is most widely used to protect teeth in the world B. Bad teeth may affect the health of adults and the young C. Breast milk can cure babies' bad teeth D. Babies' teeth should be brushed once per day 解析： 32.细节题，根据文章的前两句话 Bad teeth can be painful and worse 和 They can even be deadly 判断选 B。 33.推论题，根据文章第一段的 Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk 可知后面就是对这一 论点的举例说明，牙齿导致死亡的例子不仅仅是成年人，孩子也在其中，故选 A。 34.大意题。根据文章的第四、第五段可知此处介绍的是婴幼儿如何保护牙齿，和怎么样为 婴儿挑选牙刷，故选 C。 35.大意题。通读全文都是在讲述不好的牙齿会影响人们的身体健康，故选 B。 答案：32. B 33.

In the past people write letters to share informations and later they talked with each other on the telephone. Now more and more people use our own mobile phones to communicating. And instead writing on the paper, they e-mail to each other on the computer. As a result, people find that quicker and easier to communicate, and at the same time some people feel that they become poorer in writing. They worry about whether people can be as closely as before. 解析： 1. take place 为不及物动词词组，故应去掉 been。 2.根据 in the past 在过去，应用过去时，故 write 改为 wrote。 3. information 为不可数名词，故应去掉 s。 4.前文是 people，故其后的代词应用 their。 5.根据词组 use sth. to do sth.，故应将 communicating 改为 communicate。 6. instead 为副词，故应加上 of 才能后跟宾语。 7.根据句型 find it +形容词+不定式，故将 that 改为 it。 8.前后两分句是转折关系，故用 but。 9.此处无比较意义，应用原级 poor。 10. closely→close。此处是应用形容词作表语，故改为 close。 答案： 1.been 去掉 2. write→wrote 3. informations→information 4. our→their 5.communicating→communicate 6. instead 后加 of 7.that→it 8.and→but 9. poorer→poor 10. closely→close 第二节 书面表达 （满分 25 分） 你在网络上读到一篇关于“九零后”的英语文章，你打算以“Post-90’s Generation”为 题，用第一人称给《二十一世纪英文报》写一篇文章，内容包括： “九零后”的缺点(weakness) “九零后”的优点(strength) 你自己的感受 1.依赖性强; 2.自私； 3.贪图过舒适的生活等。 1.渴望了解周围的世界； 2.思想独立； 3.有很多新观念等。 …… 注意： 1.词数：100 左右； 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3.开头和结尾已给出，但不计入总词数； 4.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。 Post-90’s Generation We, post-90’s generation, are living in a society full of fiercer competition, and developing our special manners and values, which has raised people’s concern. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 范文： Post-90’s Generation We, post-90’s generation, are living in a society full of fiercer competition, and developing our special manners and values, which has raised people’s concern. It’s true that the post-90’s generation have some weaknesses. Some of us, for example, rely on our parents too much and tend to live comfortable lives and some are even selfish and care little for others. At the same time, the post-90’s generation desire to learn more about the world around us, and we are independent in thinking. We always keep up with modern science and technology and have many new ideas. I hold the belief that the post-90’s generation should carry forward our strengths (strong points) and overcome the weaknesses, and try to tell the world that we are a hopeful generation.
