山东省泰安市2020届高三四模 英语试题 第一部分 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 While gardens can be a great place for pets to explore and play，some seemingly harmless plants and gardening products can be poisonous for animals or pets．Here are the garden products to avoid：‎ Cocoa mulch ‎ Some gardeners like to use cocoa shell mulch in their gardens but，just like chocolate，cocoa shell mulch contains theobromine(可可碱)，which is poisonous to dogs．This means that cocoa shell mulch can be potentially deadly if consumed in large quantities．If you own a dog I’d strongly advise that you avoid using Cocoa mulch in your garden.‎ Compost Despite being an eco-friendly garden feature，compost can be highly dangerous for animal. As organic matter decomposes，it releases mycotoxins(霉菌素)，which are poisonous to wildlife．Consumption of mycotoxins can cause panting，vomiting(呕吐)，seizures and even death in dogs. If you do use compost in your garden，make sure it is securely fenced off so that your pet cannot access it．‎ Weed killer The chemicals contained in weed killers can be irritants to animals and，in some cases，even poisonous．Some weed killers contain harmful substances，such as borax and arsenic，which can potentially be fatal to pets．If you are unsure whether a weed killer is safe to use in a garden that your pet uses，you should always seek the manufacturer’s advice first，or ask a vet(兽医)．‎ Fertiliser ‎ Different fertilisers can contain a wide range of ingredients，including insecticides，fungicides and bacterial．The caustic nature of some fertilisers also means that，if consumed，they can cause stomach upsets for pets．Some fertilisers can also cause more serious symptoms，such as vomiting，‎ muscle tremors or even death，so keeping your garden fertiliser free is the simplest way to ensure that it is pet friendly．‎ If you think your pet has eaten something they shouldn’t，or if you have any other concerns about your pet’s health，you can call the video vet service FirstVet at any time of day and speak with a qualified UK vet．‎ ‎1．Which of the following gardening products could cause your pets vomit?‎ A．Fertiliser and compost． B．Cocoa mulch and compost．‎ C．Weed killer and fertilizer． D．Cocoa mulch and weed killer．‎ ‎2．What do we know from the text?‎ A．Compost can be used freely in a garden．‎ B．All weed killers can kill your pets．‎ C．Too much Cocoa mulch can kill your pets．‎ D．Fertilisers containing different ingredients are pet friendly．‎ ‎3．What is the purpose of the text?‎ A．To introduce some tips to treat your pets．‎ B．To inform you of how to protect your pets．‎ C．To warn you of what can harm your pets．‎ D．To tell you how to make your garden pet friendly．‎ B It was a Saturday evening in March，just before sundown，when we heard the screaming．I was out walking with my wife，Melissa，and our golden retriever(猎犬)，Kira，beside a lake when the peace was broken by a woman’s voice，calling out two names over and over．‎ We spotted her，almost immediately，three or four hundred feet away across the lake．Spring had come but there was still snow on the ground，the water covered by a layer of ice that had just started to thaw．Two big dogs were walking across it．They appeared to be quite old and were moving slowly．As we watched，the ice gave way beneath one dog and then the other，plunging them into the water． ‎ We arrived at the scene a few minutes later，but the dogs already seemed to be showing the effects of the cold as they struggled weakly to escape．We realized that calling 911 would be useless—the dog farther out was in water about 20 feet deep and I feared neither of them would stay ‎ afloat long enough for the emergency services to arrive．Besides，I was probably qualified to carry out the rescue myself．I was practicing the kind of deep breathing my grandfather had taught me as I walked in．I wasn’t alone—Kira swam alongside me．Having Kira there was a huge support．We were able to go back to shore quickly．‎ The second dog was further out and I had to pause before I went back in．That’s when another technique I’d learned from my grandfather came into play．He’d taught me about a pressure point on the wrist that when pressed in the right way sends out an electrical signal，like a jolt of energy．That kept me warm as I set out again with，Kira．I maintained eye contact with the dog as we approached．With Kira’s encouragement，it followed us back．The owner was emotional—“I’m the luckiest woman alive!”she said．‎ ‎4．What does the underlined word“thaw”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A．Melt． B．Shake． C．Flow． D．Appear．‎ ‎5．Why didn’t the writer call 911?‎ A．The writer’s dog has been trained to save lives．‎ B．The dogs could save themselves from the cold water．‎ C．There wasn’t enough time to wait for the emergency services．‎ D．The writer’s grandfather had taught him how to save the dogs．‎ ‎6．What do we know about the second technique the writer learned from his grandfather?‎ A．It makes him brave． B．It keeps him warm．‎ C．It allows him stay focused． D．It helps him walk quickly．‎ ‎7．Who accompanied and helped the writer while saving the dogs in the water?‎ A．His wife． B．The dogs’owner．‎ C．His grandfather． D．His dog．‎ C Scientists at Israel's Tel Aviv University say—they have created the world’s first 3D-printed heart with human tissue and blood vessels．Although the organ is only as big as a rabbit’s heart，the researchers are hoping the technology could one day be developed enough to help human patients in need of a heart transplant．‎ Lead researcher Tal Dvir said that while other scientists have managed to 3D—print the structure of a heart in the past，this is the first time anyone has printed an entire heart．“Our results ‎ demonstrate the potential of our approach for engineering personalized tissue and organ replacement in the future，”Dvir said in a press statement．‎ Scientists used fatty tissue taken from human patients to create the heart．Some material in the tissue was reprogrammed to become stem cells．The remaining material was processed into a hydrogel(水凝胶)．They used the hydrogel as a printing：“ink”．This method is key to removing the risk that the implant(植入)will be rejected by the patient’s body．The team’s next step is to cultivate(培育)the organs in a lab and to teach them how to“behave”like hearts．Dvir’s 3D-printed hearts can currently contract，but the cells still need to develop a pumping ability．His team eventually plans to test the hearts in animals．‎ ‎“Maybe，in ten years，there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world，and these procedures will be conducted routinely，”Dvir said．Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women，according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention．About 610，000 people die of this disease in America every year—amounting to about 1 in every 4 deaths．There are currently more than 3700 people waiting for a heart transplant in the United States，according to data from the United States Department of Health and Human Services． ‎ ‎8．What is the purpose of creating the 3D-printed heart?‎ A．To develop 3D-printed technology．‎ B．To study the hearts of rabbits．‎ C．To connect hospitals with universities．‎ D．To help patients receive a new heart．‎ ‎9．Why does the author mention the Current situation of heart disease patients?‎ A．To appeal to hospitals to reduce medical fees． ‎ B．To show the need to improve the new technology．‎ C．To urge researchers to develop effective medical devices． ‎ D．To introduce the main reason for heart disease to the public．‎ ‎10．What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A．The course of the research．‎ B．The importance of the research．‎ C．The material of the 3D-printed heart．‎ D．The method of the 3D-printed heart．‎ ‎11．What’s Dvir’s attitude towards the new technology?‎ A．Disapproving． B．Doubtful． C．Positive． D．Indifferent.‎ D Experts agree that parents who give up control over their children’s lives would raise them to be more independent adults．While most parents are not in the position to bribe their children into elite(精英)schools，this extreme case shows the temptation many feel to take control of their kids，lives．But an extreme approach can have devastating(毁灭性的)consequences when it comes to a child’s mental health．‎ ‎ “These parents thought their kids were not able to manage their lives by themselves. And I don't think there’s any worse message you can give somebody than‘I don’t have any confidence in your ability to handle your own life，’”the neuropsychologist William Stixrud told HuffPost．Stixrud is the author of The Self-Driven Child：The Science and Sense of Giving Your Kids More Control Over Their Lives，along with Ned Johnson．‎ In their research，Stixrud and Johnson have showed the importance for young people to feel a sense of control I over their own lives．“They have many problems like anxiety and depression，and those are related to the fact that kids feel so little control over their lives，”said Stixrud．“They feel like，‘Here’s a script to get into college，and that’what your life is going to be．’It’s too stressful and discouraging for many kids．”In order to develop healthy self-motivation，young people need to feel a sense of confidence and control，which parents and educators have the power to promote．‎ ‎“We suggest parents think of themselves as advisors，rather than a kid’s manager or boss，or the homework police．It's a very different kind of thinking about your role，”said Stixrud，“As all advisor，your role is not to force anything or say‘You need to be like this．’Instead，help your kid understand what he or she wants to be．”He advises parents to encourage their kids to make their own decisions long before the college years．It’s important to constantly ask，“Whose life is this?”and realize the answer is“My child’s life，not mine．”‎ ‎12．What does the writer think of the extreme approach in parenting?‎ A．It’s harmful to children’s mental health．‎ B．It can raise children to be independent ones．‎ C．It can have devastating consequences physically． ‎ D．It can help children to be admitted into better schools．‎ ‎13．Why do some parents control their children’s lives so much according to Stixrud?‎ A．They want to be considerate in every aspect.‎ B．They think much stress is good for the children．‎ C．They don’t want their children to be independent．‎ D．They have no confidence in their children’s ability．‎ ‎14．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?‎ A．To summarize the previous paragraphs．‎ B．To provide some advice for parents．‎ C．To add some background information．‎ D．To introduce a new topic for discussion．‎ ‎15．Which could be the best title for the text?‎ A．How to Be Your Children’s Friend B．Allow Your Children to Grow at Will C．Be Your Children’s Advisor Instead of Manager D．How to Help Your Children Adjust to College Life 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。‎ Leadership is the ability to encourage yourself and others to achieve a specific aim. Mastering leadership skills can help people get more satisfying results，build more confidence and so on．Here are some ways to improve one’s leadership at work．‎ Learn from leaders that you admire．You can get encouragement from any leader who has left a great impression on you with their leadership．16 Choose the good qualities that you want to study，such as keeping their word，trusting others，courage and determination.‎ ‎17 As a leader，it is important to teach others what you know to help them grow in their jobs．If you spend time teaching others，you can enable them to have valuable skills and knowledge．‎ Build good teams．Many people want to work in or be part of a successful team. 18 When you build it，you have to know the advantages and disadvantages of members，get team members ‎ to know each other，build trust and so on．‎ Be a good listener．Good 1istening skills are important to a leader．With so much information distracting our attention today，it is easy to ignore listening skills． 19 Listening carefully can help people feel understood，appreciated and respected．‎ Praise others truly．It will let people down if they put a lot of efforts into a task that benefits the company but don’t receive even a simple“thank you”．Sometimes leaders forget the power and importance of praising team members，yet this simple behavior is encouraging． 20 ‎ A．Build your self-confidence．‎ B．Share your knowledge with others．‎ C．Try to get better and better at what you do．‎ D．Therefore，make it a habit to appreciate your members．‎ E．However，building a strong and well-performing team is hard．‎ F．It could be your father，brother，friend，teacher，or a famous person．‎ G．This will lead to poor communication and make others understand things wrongly．‎ 第二部分 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。‎ At Dayton School，one student has inspired a big change to the curriculum．Morey is the school’s first 21 student.
