11 -‎ C.It was named after a famous institute.‎ D.It represented the 19th century urban culture.‎ ‎57.What is unique of SieMatic BeauxArts?‎ A.Its designs are anti-conventional.‎ B.Its designs come from famous structures.‎ C.Its customers can enjoy their own composition.‎ D.Its customers can choose from various new styles.‎ B However wealthy we may be,we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want.Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost,which simply refers to whether someone’s time or money could be better spent on something else.‎ Every hour of our time has a value.For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another,or be sleeping or watching a film.Each of these options has a different opportunity cost—namely,what they cost us in missed opportunities.‎ Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium.Why not,you might reason,watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends?This—the alternative use of your cash and time—is the opportunity cost.‎ For economists,every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo—in terms of money and enjoyment—in order to take it up.By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on,you ought to be able to make better-informed,more reasonable decisions.Consider that most famous economic rule of all:there’s no such thing as a free lunch.Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free,the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.‎ Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging:imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable.Yet,in a sense it’s human nature to do precisely that—we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.‎ In the business world,a popular phrase is “value for money.”People want their cash to go as far as possible.However,another is fast obtaining an advantage:“value for time.”The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something,so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time.By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities,such as sleeping and eating.In return,however,this passage will help you to think like an economist,closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.‎ ‎58.According to the passage,the concept of “opportunity cost” is applied to______.‎ A.making more money ‎ B.taking more opportunities C.reducing missed opportunities D.weighing the choice of opportunities - 11 -‎ ‎59.The “leftover...time” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time______.‎ A.spared for watching the match at home B.taken to have dinner with friends C.spent on the way to and from the match D.saved from not going to watch the match ‎60.What are forgone opportunities?‎ A.Opportunities you forget in decision-making.‎ B.Opportunities you give up for better ones.‎ C.Opportunities you miss accidentally.‎ D.Opportunities you make up for.‎ C My day began on a definitely sour note when I saw my six-year-old wrestling with a limb of my azalea（杜鹃花）bush. By the time I got outside, he’d broken it. “Can I take this to school today?” he asked. With a wave of my hand, I sent him off. I turned my back so he wouldn’t see the tears gathering in my eyes.‎ The washing machine had leaked on my brand-new linoleum. If only my husband had just taken the time to fix it the night before when I asked him instead of playing checkers with Jonathan.‎ It was days like this that made me want to quit. I just wanted to drive up to the mountains, hide in a cave, and never come out.‎ Somehow I spent most of the day washing and drying clothes and thinking how love had disappeared from my life. As I finished hanging up the last of my husband’s shirts, I looked at the clock. 2: 30. I was late. Jonathan’s class let out at 2: 15 and I hurriedly drove to the school.‎ I was out of breath by the time I knocked on the teacher’s door and peered through the glass. She rustled through the door and took me aside. “I want to talk to you about Jonathan,” she said.‎ I prepared myself for the worst. Nothing would have surprised me. “Did you know Jonathan brought flowers to school today?” she asked. I nodded, thinking about my favorite bush and trying to hide the hurt in my eyes. “Let me tell you about yesterday,” the teacher insisted. “See that little girl?” I watched the bright-eyed child laugh and point to a colorful picture taped to the wall. I nodded.‎ ‎“Well, yesterday she was almost hysterical. Her mother and father are going through a nasty divorce. She told me she didn’t want to live, she wished she could die. I watched that little girl bury her face in her hands and say loud enough for the class to hear, ‘Nobody loves me. ’ I did all I could to comfort her, but it only seemed to make matters worse.” “I thought you wanted to talk to me about Jonathan,” I said.‎ ‎“I do,” she said, touching the sleeve of my blouse. “Today your son walked straight over to that child. I watched him hand her some pretty pink flowers and whisper, ‘I love you. ’“‎ I felt my heart swell with pride for what my son had done. I smiled at the teacher. “Thank you,” I said, reaching for Jonathan’s hand, “you’ve made my day.”‎ Later that evening, I began pulling weeds from around my azalea bush. As my mind - 11 -‎ ‎ wandered back to the love Jonathan showed the little girl, a biblical verse came to me: “... these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” While my son had put love into practice, I had only felt anger.‎ I heard the familiar squeak of my husband’s brakes as he pulled into the drive. I snapped a small limb bristling with hot pink azaleas off the bush. I felt the seed of love that God planted in my family beginning to bloom once again in me. My husband’s eyes widened in surprise as I handed him the flowers. “I love you,” I said.‎ ‎61. Why did the woman cry when seeing her son had broken the azalea bush?‎ A. Because she could not tolerate the harm to it.‎ B. Because it made her bad mood even worse.‎ C. Because her son did not ask her for permission.‎ D. Because she wanted to hand it to her husband.‎ ‎62. The writer wanted to hide in the mountain cave probably for the reason of        .‎ A. feeling fed up with her endless daily housework B. her husband’s failing to fix the machine in time C. boring daily routine with a feeling of lack of love D. her hoping to seek happiness in a brand new place ‎63. We can infer from the passage that the writer expressed love to her husband in that        .‎ A. she was inspired by her son that love was supposed to be felt and practiced B. she felt guilty that she misunderstood her husband and wanted to apologize C. she felt it necessary to have a complete family for the happiness of herself D. she wanted to prove her love and expected the same words from her husband ‎64.According to Dr.Swindles’ study，what will probably happen after hundreds of years?‎ A.There will be an ice age after the Earth cools down.‎ B.Volcanoes will break out even more fiercely.‎ C.Volcanic eruptions will be under control.‎ D.There will be no glaciers on the Earth.‎ D Freedom’s challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic.We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it.‎ Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom.Before that there was no freedom.There were great civilizations,splendid empires,but no freedom anywhere.Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies,one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses.‎ In Greece,in Athens(雅典),a little city in a little country,there were no helpless masses.And Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed,and the unwritten,which must be obeyed if free men live together.They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert.The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted.A man was free if he was self-controlled.To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom.They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair.Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens,not because it was forced on him from the outside,but because - 11 -‎ ‎ the city was his pride and his safety.The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.‎ But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers.It cannot be discovered once for all.If people do not prize it,and work for it,it will go.Constant watch is its price.Athens changed.It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance,a spiritual change which affected the whole state.It had been the Athenian’s pride and joy to give to their city.That they could get material benefits from her never entered their minds.There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid her citizens for doing her work.Now instead of men giving to the state,the state was to give to them.What the people wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them;and with this as the primary object,ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing.Athens was more and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to share.‎ Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility.There could be only one result.If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good,they would cease to be free.Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom.It is to be had on no other terms.Athens,the Athens of Ancient Greece,refused responsibility;she reached the end of freedom and was never to have it again.‎ But,“the excellent becomes the permanent,”Aristotle said.Athens lost freedom forever,but freedom was not lost forever for the world.A great American,James Madison,referred to:“The capacity(能力)of mankind for self-government.”No doubt he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek.Athens was not in the farthest background of his mind,but once man has a great and good idea,it is never completely lost.The Digital Age cannot destroy it.Somehow in this or that man’s thought such an idea lives though unconsidered by the world of action.One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action only sure that it will do so sometime.‎ ‎65.What does the underlined word“tyrannies”in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A.Countries where their people need help.‎ B.Powerful states with higher civilization.‎ C.Splendid empires where people enjoy freedom.‎ D.Governments ruled with absolute power.‎ ‎66.People believing in freedom are those who______.‎ A.regard their life as their own business B.seek gains as their primary object C.behave within the laws and value systems D.treat others with kindness and pity ‎67.What change in attitude took place in Athens?‎ A.The Athenians refused to take their responsibility.‎ B.The Athenians no longer took pride in the city.‎ C.The Athenians benefited spiritually from the government.‎ - 11 -‎ D.The Athenians looked on the government as a business.‎ ‎68.What does the sentence“There could be only one result.”in Paragraph 5 mean?‎ A.Athens would continue to be free.‎ B.Athens would cease to have freedom.‎ C.Freedom would come from responsibility.‎ D.Freedom would stop Athens from self-dependence.‎ ‎69.Why does the author refer to Aristotle and Madison?‎ A.The author is hopeful about freedom.‎ B.The author is cautious about self-government.‎ C.The author is skeptical of Greek civilization.‎ D.The author is proud of man’s capacity.‎ ‎70.What is the author’s understanding of freedom?‎ A.Freedom can be more popular in the digital age.‎ B.Freedom may come to an end in the digital age.‎ C.Freedom should have priority over responsibility.‎ D.Freedom needs to be guaranteed by responsibility.‎ 第四部分　任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意：每个空格只填一个单词。‎ For more than twenty years scientists have been seeking to understand the mystery of the“sixth sense” of direction. By trying out ideas and solving problems one by one, they are now getting closer to one answer.‎ One funny idea is that animals might have a built-in compass(指南针).‎ Our earth itself is a big magnet(磁体). So a little magnetic needle that swings freely lines itself with the big earth magnet to point north and south. When people discovered that idea about a thousand years ago and invented the compass, it allowed sailors to navigate(航海) on ocean voyages, even under cloudy skies.‎ Actually the idea of the living compass came just from observing animals in nature.‎ Many birds migrate twice a year between their summer homes and winter homes. Some of them fly for thousands of kilometers and mostly at night. Experiments have shown that some birds can recognize star patterns. But they can keep on course even under cloudy skies. How can they do that?‎ A common bird that does not migrate but is great at finding its way home is the homing pigeon. Not all pigeons can find their way home. Those that can are very good at it, and they have been widely studied.‎ One interesting experiment was to attach little magnets to the birds’ heads to block their magnetic sense—just as a loud radio can keep you from hearing a call to dinner. On sunny days, that did not fool the pigeons. Evidently they can use the sun to tell which way they are going. But on cloudy days, the pigeons with magnets could not find their way. It was as if the magnets had blocked their magnetic sense.‎ Similar experiments with the same kind of results were done with honeybees. These insects also seem to have a special sense of direction.‎ In spite of the experiments, the idea of an animal compass seemed pretty extraordinary. How would an animal get the magnetic stuff for a compass?‎ An answer came from an unexpected source. A scientist was studying bacteria that - 11 -‎ ‎ live in the mud of ponds and marshes. He found accidentally little rod-like bacteria that all swam together in one direction—north.‎ Further study showed that each little bacterium had a chain of dense particles inside, which proved magnetic. The bacteria had made themselves into little magnets that could line up with the earth’s magnet.‎ The big news was that a living thing, even a simple bacterium, can make magnetite. That led to a search to see whether animals might have it. By using a special instrument called magnetometer, scientists were able to find magnetite in bees and birds, and even in fish. In each animal, except for the bee, the magnetic stuff was always in or closer to the brain.‎ Thus, the idea of a built-in animal compass began to seem reasonable.‎ The Magnetic Sense—The Living Compass Passage outline Supporting details The existence of the earth magnet and the invention of the navigating compass ‎◇Our earth is a big magnet and a little freely　1　magnetic needle lines itself with the earth magnet to point north and south.　‎ ‎◇　2　on the idea above, the navigating compass was invented.　‎ The possibility of birds’ built-in compasses ‎◇One piece of evidence is the　3　of many birds between their summer homes and winter homes.　‎ ‎◇Birds can recognize star patterns on clear nights and keep on course　4　under cloudy skies.　‎ The　5　on pigeons’ and bees’ built-in compasses ‎◇Little magnets were tied to the pigeons’ heads to　6　their magnetic sense.　‎ ‎◇The pigeons’ magnetic sense seemed to be affected on 　7　days.　‎ ‎◇Similar things with the same results were done with bees.‎ The　8　of the magnetic stuff for the animal compass ‎◇Little rod-like bacteria were found by chance to swim together in the direction of　9　.　‎ ‎◇Some animals had a chain of dense magnetic particles in or close to the　10　inside their bodies.　‎ 林书豪(Jeremy Lin)在NBA的优异表现在全球掀起了一股"林旋风"。近期某网站就林书豪现象对网民进行了一次调查，结果见下表。请根据下面表格的文字内容和饼状图，用英语写一篇短文，短文内容须包括表中提供的所有信息。‎ - 11 -‎ 注意： 1.对所给提示，不要简单翻译，可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 2.词数150左右。开头己给出，不计入总词数。‎ Recently, a survey on Jeremy Lin has been conducted among netizens on a website.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎2020年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试•江苏省名师押题密卷（4）‎ 英 语 试 题 参 考 答 案 及 听 力 原 文 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分20分）‎ 略 第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）‎ ‎21-25CBBDC 26-30CADBD 31-35CCBAD ‎ 第二节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）‎ ‎36-40 BCADC 41-45 ABCDA 45-50 BBCAC 51-55 BDACD 第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）‎ A篇：AC B篇：DCB C篇：BCAD - 11 -‎ D篇：DCABAD 第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ ‎71.swinging　72.
