高 三 英 语 第一部分 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、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A I believe in the power of holding on. What do I mean by holding on? Hugging, or holding on, is the power we possess when we put our arms around someone. It can change relationships, makes a patient a person, an acquaintance a friend. ‎ My grandmother taught me about holding on, whenever she gathered me in her strong, loving Irish arms. She always hugged even when her back became curved .My mother hugs my children the same way—heart open and arms wide, breathing them into her soul. ‎ Once I became aware of its power, I started experimenting: I held my mother-in-law a moment too long then moved onto my sisters-in-law, aunts, nieces, nephews, and cousins. I tried it with a friend who had made my life rich with laughter, but I was too embarrassed to tell her, and acquaintances that I wanted to be friends with. Some were bothered, others accepting, but all had one thing in common—the next time I hugged them, they hugged me back. ‎ For me, holding on has become more than a physical interaction; it has become a way of thinking. My answer to life’s dilemmas and tough choices, it’s a mixture of acceptance, forgiveness, and patience—not always easy or understood but it guides me to be quiet and listen, look for the good, have a sense of humor and laugh, stop worrying and be patient because if I let it, something will change.‎ I’ve often wondered how different my life would have been if I hadn’t learned the power of holding on. If during that time in my life, when I was crumbling into myself, my mother had stopped holding on to me, I might have missed something so vital to my existence. I believe that a hug is like a battery charger—a good one can keep me going for a long time. ‎ ‎1. It can be learned from the passage that________.‎ A. holding your friends’ hands is beneficial B. hugging a stranger is a very common thing C. the power of holding on is beyond expectation D. a good habit came down from Grandparents ‎2. When her grandmother hugged the author_______.‎ A. she knew her grandmother were from Ireland B. she found her grandmother older and older C. she could sense her grandmother wasn’t herself D. she could feel great love from her loved one ‎3 When the author offered to make friends with others______‎ A. she was misunderstood in a way B. she was refused immediately C. she was thought to be foolish D. she was made fun of at once ‎4.

Unbelievable B The Boy Made It!‎ One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.‎ ‎ Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.‎ ‎ He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could. By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.‎ ‎ The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholaswas saved. Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode(一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area andhas to find his way out.‎ When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.‎ ‎5. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon? A. He broke his skis. B. He got lost. C. He hurt his eyes D. He caught a cold.‎ ‎6. How did Nicholas keep himself ‎ warm? A. He found a shelter. B. He lighted some branches. ‎ C. He built a snow cave. D. He kept on skiing.‎ ‎7. On Tuesday, Nicholas ______. A. returned to his shelter safely B. got stuck in the snow ‎ C. was saved by a searcher D. stayed where he was ‎8. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he ______. A. was very hard-working B. watched Grylls’ TV program regularly C. created some tips for survival D. did the right things in the dangerous situation ‎ C Jack Ma’s net worth increased $2.8bn overnight as Alibaba forecast sales growth that topped every analyst’s estimate, despite the fact that China’s economy is slowing down.‎ Mr. Ma, aged 52 this year, is now the richest person in Asia and 14th wealthiest in the world, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His net worth has climbed $8.5bn this year to $41.8bn.‎ The latest surge came after China’s largest e-commerce company forecast 45 to 49 percent revenue(收入) growth in the year ending March, demonstrating how investments beyond online shopping are paying off. Shares in Alibaba, where Mr. Ma is chairman, rose 13 percent to a record high.‎ Alibaba and Tencent, which dominate online shopping and social media, respectively have ventured(冒险) deeper into new areas from cloud computing services to streaming music and video as the country’s economy slows. Alibaba is capturing more digital advertising spending by incorporating(合并) social elements such as video in its shopping sites.‎ Alibaba is holding meetings with investors this week. On Friday, the former English teacher said he wasn’t going to discuss corporate forecasts. He took the stage instead to describe how his company had become effectively the world’s 22nd largest economy—just after Argentina—in terms of transaction(交易) by never fearing to think big. Mr. Ma, who said Alibaba revises 10-year plans annually, foresaw the company becoming the fifth-largest eventually by 2036 by serving a burgeoning Chinese middle classes, taking advantage of global trade and making use of its valuable data.‎ Ma’s comments about the evolution of data-driven technology echoed Masayoshi Son, Chairman of Japan’s SoftBank. SoftBank—Alibaba’s largest shareholder—has invested billions in companies such as ARM with the intention of staking out a leading position in the future Internet of Things.‎ ‎ “The Internet of Things is going to be big because in the past, machines drink electricity,” Mr. Ma told investors. “In the next 20 years, machines will drink data. In the future, no company, no ‎ country, no business can survive without data.”‎ ‎9. What can we infer from the passage? ‎ A. Jack Ma has become the richest person in the world.‎ B. China’s economy is not satisfying.‎ C. online shopping grows rapidly worldwide.‎ D. Alibaba is the largest company in the world.‎ ‎10. The underlined word “surge” in Paragraph 3 probably means_____.‎ A. uncertainty B. rapid decline C. dead time D. sudden increase ‎11. What do we know about Alibaba?‎ A. It has been providing cloud computing services.‎ B. It makes profits mainly from digital advertising.‎ C. It is China’s largest social media company.‎ D. It aims to research into streaming music and video.‎ ‎12. What does Jack Ma stress in the last paragraph?‎ A. The importance of the data.‎ B. The investment of global trade ‎ C. The necessity sharing information.‎ D. The future of the Internet of Things.‎ D.‎ ‎ Most nations have at least one type of food that people from other countries think is unusual or unethical（不道德的）to eat. In France, people eat horse meat and frog legs. In South Korea and parts of China, restaurants serve dog meat. And in Australia, it’s common to cook kangaroo meat on the barbecue and use emu（鸸鹋）eggs to make pancakes.‎ ‎ The kangaroo and emu are native to Australia. Both animals are important to the national image of Australia and appear on the Australian coat of arms. They’re also central figures in the history of the indigenous（土生土长的）Australian Aboriginals（土著人）. However, Aboriginal tribes still hunt these animals for their meat, fur and fat.‎ ‎ Today, Australian people continue to eat these animals. One of the reasons people eat kangaroo meat is that it’s high in protein and low in fat, so eating kangaroo is a good option for anyone on a diet. It’s also cheaper to eat kangaroo meat than other red meats. Because of this, a lot of university students choose to buy kangaroo meat. BBC News also reported that Australian scientists believe that eating kangaroo meat is good for the environment--kangaroos have different digestive systems than cows and sheep, meaning they produce less methane（甲烷），the second biggest contributor to global warming.‎ ‎ While emu meat is high in iron and vitamin C, most people don’t think it tastes good. For this reason, they prefer emu eggs. One egg is large enough to make seven omelettes（煎蛋）. And while it’s illegal to collect emu eggs from the wild, they can be bought from emu farms. Rather than cracking the beautiful dark shell, it’s better to drain it by putting a small hole at each end and blowing. Afterwards, you can even carve a design into the eggshell.‎ ‎13. The author mentioned the meat-eating customs of different countries at the beginning of the article to __________.‎ A. present different cultures’ meat-eating preferences B. introduce the consumption of kangaroo meat and emu eggs in Australia C. suggest that people try to understand other countries’ diets D. compare different eating habits among different countries ‎14. According to the article, the kangaroo __________.‎ A. is not considered precious in Australia B. contains large amounts of iron and vitamins in its meat C. faces extinction due to hunting by Aboriginal tribes D. is considered healthy and environmentally friendly to eat ‎15. Which of the following statements is TRUE about emu eggs?‎ A. Emu eggs taste terrible but are nutritious.‎ B. The shells of emu eggs are not difficult to break.‎ C. Emu egg shells can be used to create art. ‎ D. It’s common for Australians to collect emu eggs from the wild.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的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。‎ Cold blesses us all It's November, the time of year when people often get blessed more. This is not because God likes cold weather, nor because others are feeling generous with Thanksgiving just around the corner. 16 ‎ Colds and the flu are the most common illnesses people get in autumn and winter as the weather gets colder. They are all caused by viruses, but colds are generally milder—you'll feel annoyed but not as if you want to die.‎ Teenagers catch average six to ten colds a year, according to statistics from the Ministry of Health, while adults average two to four. More than 200 viruses cause cold symptoms. 17 You can be contagious（传染的）one day before symptoms develop and for up to five days ‎ after becoming sick.‎ The signature symptom of a cold is a runny nose. The flu will make you burn with fever, ache all over, feel extremely tired and cough intensely. The flu can sometimes lead to more serious diseases, such as pneumonia.‎ ‎ 18 A doctor can test you to see whether you have the flu in the first few days of the illness. But some treatments for both are pretty much the same:‎ ‎● 19 Many doctors consider water a weapon against the common cold. It helps your blood drive off viruses and flood them out.‎ ‎● Keep warm. You might be cold one minute and hot the next, and wearing several layers is very important.‎ ‎● Wash your hands frequently. You don't want to make it worse by spreading the flu to everyone else. Also, avoid sharing cups and eating utensils(餐具) with other people.‎ ‎ 20 But if your flu symptoms get worse, go to a hospital or clinic right away.‎ A. Most people who catch the flu get better without having to see their doctor.‎ B. Sometimes, it's hard to tell a cold from the flu based on symptoms alone.‎ C. Drink lots of water. ‎ D. Taking medicine on time is a good way to prevent the illness.‎ E. ‎"Bless you!" is a common response to sneezes, the symptom of catching a cold or the flu.‎ F. Get lots of sleep and take it easy.‎ G. You can pass on the flu before you even know you have it.‎ 第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ I learned to do wood work when I was very young.
