For others, it means attending baseball games. And for many, it means cooking, eating, and generally enjoying American barbecue. Barbecue, or BBQ for short, is a style of cooking meat at a low temperature for a long time. But, not all American barbecue is the same. Mike Sargent recently drove almost 2,500 kilometers from Texas to Washington, D. C., to compete in the National Capital Barbecue Battle. As a Texan, Sargent says his home state makes the best barbecue. But he adds, “The style of barbecue going across the nation is just totally different. And it’s interesting to see, you know, because it's the culture on what people were raised on.” Texas is part of America’s so-called “Barbecue Belt.” The area stretches from Texas to the East Coast. Many people divide it into four main styles of American barbecue: Carolina-style, Memphis style, Kansas City-style and Texas-style. Each is named after the state or city where the style was formed. But American barbecue is not actually that straightforward. Robert F Moss is a barbecue expert and historian. He wrote the book Barbecue. Moss says American barbecue is much more than just the four main styles. He says many areas within the Barbecue Belt have their own styles and flavors. The state of Alabama, for example, has its own special white-colored barbecue sauce. And California, a state far from the Barbecue Belt, has its own barbecue style called Santa Maria. David Robbins is with Old Town Smokers, a restaurant in Alexandria, Virginia. He says that, for people who come from places where barbecue is popular, there is a lot of regional(地域的)pride. “Usually not because it’s the favorite taste, it’s because it’s the thing they grew up with.” 21. Mike Sargent thinks the difference in barbecue style is interesting because______. A. it explains why Texas has the best barbecue B. it makes the barbecue battle more exciting C. it adds color and fun to summertime D. it reflects different local food cultures 22. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. There is great diversity in American barbecue style. B. The concept of “Barbecue Belt” is totally wrong. C. Robert F. Moss is an expert on American barbecue. D. The best barbecue is outside the “Barbecue Belt”. 23. What does David Robbins suggest by mentioning “regional pride” in paragraph 5? A. Grown-ups tend to take more pride in the local barbecue. B. What matters most about barbecue is usually how it tastes. C. Barbecue carries people’s love for their hometown. D. It would be a shame if one had to grow up without barbecue. B If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do not exercise at all. Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non-joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries. Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy. Anything more is just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.” The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and long distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study, “You don't actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health. And perhaps you shouldn't actually do too much.” 24.The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”． A. hard B. regular C. practical D. flexible 25. What’s the author’s purpose by presenting some figures in Paragraph 2? A. To suggest giving up jogging B. To show risks of doing sports C. To provide supportive evidence D. To introduce the research process 26. What can be inferred from the text? A. Jogging is the best exercise. B. More exercise means a healthier life. C. Marathons runners are least likely to die. D. Proper exercise contributes to good health. C A work of art created by artificial intelligence (AI) has been sold by a major art seller for the first time. The print sold for an unexpectedly large amount of $432, 500. The artwork was bought during an auction(拍卖)Thursday at Christie’s, an art house, in New York City. Officials had predicted it would sell for between $7, 000 and $10, 000. In a website post, Christie’s said the AI-created work was the first ever sold by a major auction house. It praised the sale as a signal of “the arrival of AI art on the world auction stage.” The artwork, called “Portrait (肖像) of Edmond Belamy,” was made by a machine learning algorithm(算法). The AI system was created by members of an art group called Obvious in Paris, France. It shows the portrait of a man, looking similar to subjects shown in historical paintings. Christie’s described some differences of the AI-created work compared to other art it sells. For example, it said some parts of the face were not as clearly drawn as those painted by artists. Also some parts of the print were left empty. However, Christie's sale organizer Richard Lloyd said the piece was very similar to many others sold over many years. Three creators from the art group Obvious cooperated on the process that made the print. First they put a collection of 15,000 portraits into a machine learning system. The portraits were painted by artists from the time period between the 14th and 20th centuries. Then a tool called the “Generator” made a new image based on the information entered into the system. After that, another tool, called a “Discriminator”, attempted to find differences between the human-made image and the one created by the Generator. Then the image was improved. “The aim is to fool the Discriminator into thinking that the new images are real-life portraits. Then we have a result.” Obvious group member Hugo Caselles-dupre said in a statement. 27. It can be inferred from the text that___________. A. the AI portrait received much recognition B. there is little true artistic value in AI artwork C. technology will one day replace human artists D. there is no similar AI system for art at present 28. What does the underlined word “subjects” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Artists. B. Machines C. Figures D. Techniques. 29. What is the final purpose of a “Discriminator” ? A. To select useful information from real-life portraits. B. To help the portrait more like a human-made one. C. To put human portraits into the machine learning system. D. To create a portrait based on paintings by human artists 30. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Secret of AI B. AI Portrait Sold C. Artwork and AI D. AI Art at Christie’s 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 Long before the Internet, and even before the telephone, people relied on pen and paper to communicate. It’s a lot different from writing an email because when you make a mistake, you cannot “backspace” your errors away. 31 Letter writing has been a key means of communication for people throughout history. 32 Famous names like Christopher Columbus and Amerigo Vespucci graced my history textbooks growing up, with stories of their explorations. Much of what we know about them is through the letters they wrote to people back in Europe. There were two main reasons why these early explorers wrote letters. 33 The other reason for writing letters was to assure and update the people who financed their trips. These so-called sponsors were often noblemen or wealthy people who had a personal interest in world discoveries. Letters from explorers would raise hopes that new lands could bring more riches. When the British began building colonies (殖民地) in America during the 17th century, these lands were settled by people who sailed across the Atlantic Ocean. 34 Their letters were mixed with news of illness as well as details of their exotic (异国的) surroundings. 35 With the widespread use of the Internet, the tiny differences of a person’s handwriting are lost to the cold, typewritten text that comes with an email. A person’s unique signature is reserved for signing a receipt for a credit card payment. A. Letter writing is just how you travel around the world. B. You simply cross out your mistakes with your pen and continue writing. C. The early settlers faced a lot of challenges in the unfamiliar environment. D. One was a boy from England who liked the same music as me: rock and roll. E. Four hundred years later, however, we don’t really need to write letters anymore. F. It played a vital part in the exploration of the “New World”, as America was once known. G. One was to document for the people back home what they saw as they journeyed through the faraway, mysterious land. 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节：完形填空（共 20 个小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项， 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Education is very close in my heart.

Many a woman has watched in disbelief as their partners eat their food minutes after sitting down to dinner. Now Korean researchers have discovered why: men and women 57 (actual) chew differently. Women chew each individual mouthful more times — taking longer to finish 58 (eat) their meal. The researchers hired 24 males and 24 females in South Korea. They recorded the size of people’s bites, total chewing time per mouthful of food, total number of chews and how long 59 took the person to eat the entire meal. Men typically take 60 (large) bites with more “chewing power”, 61 means they consume their meal more quickly than women. Though women were watched 62 (have) the same chewing pace as men, they chewed each mouthful more times, slowing down the total time it took them to eat their meal. The study 63 (publish) in the January issue of the Physiology and Behaviour Journal. But it flies in the face of an earlier result studied 64 researchers at Nippon Dental University in Tokyo, Japan, which found no 65 (different) in how the sexes chewed gum. 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节：应用文写作（满分15分） 假如你是李华，得知美国好友Eric已成功申请耶鲁大学（Yale University），现请你用英文给他 写封电子邮件向他表示祝贺，内容要点包括： 1.成功的祝贺； 2.努力的肯定； 3.未来的祝愿。 注意： 1、词数80左右； 2、可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 第二节：概要写作（满分25分） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要 From the health point of view, we are living in a wonderful age, immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases and freed from the once deadly illnesses thanks to modern drugs and surgery. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater, every day we witness the unbelievable killings of men, women and children on the roads. It is a never-ending battle which man is losing against the car. Thousands of people the world over are killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen. It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the car often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a wheel. All their hidden frustrations and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving. The surprising thing is that society smiles gently on the driver and seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable（不宜居住的） because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the mass annual deaths becomes nothing but a number, to be conveniently forgotten. It is high time rules were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all vehicles should be put through strict tests for safety; present drinking and driving laws should be made much stricter; maximum and minimum speed limits should be required on all roads. These measures may sound strict. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual loss of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not cars. 2020 学年第一学期高三第二次英语模拟测试答案 听力 1-5 CAACB 6-10 ACCAA 11-15 BCBAB 16-20 BABCC 阅读理解 21-23 DAC 24-26 ACD 27-30 ACBB 七选五 31-35 BFGCE 完型填空 36-40 DCAAB 40-45 CDCAB 46-50 CDADB 51-55 BACBD 语法填空 56. while 57. actually 58. eating 59. it 60. larger 61. which 62. to have 63. was published 64. by 65. difference 应用文 One possible version: Dear Eric, Learning that you have been admitted to Yale University, I'm writing to extend my heartfelt congratulations.

Yours Li Hua 概要写作 One possible version: Despite the fact that we are now living a healthy life, we should in no case ignore car accidents which kill a shockingly large number of people annually（要点1，主旨）.
