天水一中高三第三次诊断考试 英语 第I卷 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、和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A Here are some themed attractions inside this Disneyland Park that all have something to offer.   ‎ Mickey Avenue Once you entered the Disneyland Park, Mickey Mouse and his friends gather along the street welcoming you. This place is also a busy bazaar where tourists can select varieties of goods and enjoy tasty snacks while wandering around.‎ Gardens of Imagination It is the first garden-designed Disney park in the world, with bridges and paths connecting seven themed areas. Chinese Zodiac Mural (生肖壁画) in the Garden of the Twelve Friends turn the movie figures into twelve animal signs. Guests can try to find their own zodiac sign on the wall and take photos with it.‎ Adventure Isle Adventure Isle takes visitors into a newfound ancient tribe(部落). Drifting down the river on the rafts, you will pass through unknown places and rush into the dark caves, meeting the huge mysterious monsters.‎ Tomorrowland The carefully designed Tomorrowland presents endless possibilities of the future. Using high tech, this park is like the settings of science fiction movies. The shooting program, “Buzz lightyear Planet rescue”, gives visitors a mission to save the world.‎ Admission Fee One-day Ticket CNY370 on ordinary days CNY499 on weekends, public holidays, July and August Two-day Ticket A 5% discount on the basis of the original prize Note:‎ Children between 1 and 1.4 meters tall and seniors aged over 65 can enjoy a 25% discount on the ticket price.‎ ‎1. What does the underlined word “bazaar” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. club B. market C. agency D. cottage ‎2. Where should you go if you’re interested in traditional Chinese culture?‎ A. Tomorrowland B. Mickey Avenue C. Gardens of Imagination. D. Adventure Isle ‎3. How much is the admission for a young couple and their son (1.2m) on Sunday?‎ A. CNY998 . B. CNY1,122.75 . C. CNY1,322.35 . D. CNY1,372.25 .‎ B I have a friend who lives by a three-word philosophy: Seize the moment. Just possibly, she may be the wisest woman on this planet. Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven’t thought about it. Don’t have it on their schedule, and didn’t know it was coming or they are too strict to depart from their routine.‎ I can’t count the times I called my sister and said, “How about going to lunch in half an hour?” She would gasp and stammer (结结巴巴地说), “I can’t. I have clothes on the line. My hair is dirty. I wish I had known it yesterday, I had a late breakfast, and it looks like rain.” And my personal favorite response: “It’s just Monday.” She died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. From then on, I’ve tried to be a little more flexible.‎ Life has a way of going faster as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises made to ourselves gets longer. One morning, we are awaken, and all having to show for our lives is repetition of “I’m going to”, “I plan on” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”‎ When anyone calls my “seize the moment” friend, she is open to adventure and available for trips. She keeps an open mind on new ideas. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. You talk with her for a while, and you’re ready to change your attitude to life.‎ My lips have not touched ice cream in 10 years. I love ice cream. The other day, I stopped the car and bought a triple-decker. If my car had hit an iceberg on the way home, I would have died happily. Now go on and have a nice day. Do something you WANT to … not something on your SHOULD DO list.‎ ‎4. The example of the writer’s sister serves as ________.‎ A. a debate B. an introduction C. a support D. a conclusion ‎5. The writer thinks that the excuse “It’s just Monday.” is acceptable, because _______.‎ A. it is still likely that they can have lunch together some time later B. it sounds most reasonable of all the excuses C. it shows respect for the writer’s suggestion D. it indicates the time when they can have lunch together ‎6. The underlined word “contagious” in the fourth paragraph means ________ .‎ A. accurate B. influential C. hopeful D. necessary ‎7. What is the purpose of the writer by writing this passage?‎ A. To suggest how time flies.‎ B. To persuade busy people to relax.‎ C. To advise people to keep their promise.‎ D. To persuade readers to be flexible on their schedule for practical joy.‎ C How long has 3-D technology been around? Most of us might think of crowds of teenagers in a 1950’s movie house watching Bwana Devil in 3-D. But 3-D technology made its first appearance on the scene in 1838 with the first stereoscope(体视镜). And the first actual 3-D movie was a 1903 film called Le Ariveed’un Train.‎ ‎ Although it has such a long history, the technology has still remained based on one simple principle-----to make 3-D effects you must find a way to project two slightly different pictures to each eye. Modern 3-D technology works by rapidly flickering(闪动) two versions of the movie and projecting them onto each eye. The brain does the rest of the work, combining the two pictures together into one and giving the show the appearance of depth, the third dimension.‎ ‎ But does this exposure, especially long exposures, cause harm to the child’s developing brain and visual system? Unfortunately, long-term studies on new flicker digital 3-D technology and children aren’t yet available. We do not know if regular or daily 3-D viewing over years affects the developing visual system, although older 3-D methods basically do the same thing and are not considered harmful.‎ ‎ The question of possible harm in modern 3-D use in TV is really based on two facts: the amount of time children will now be watching 3-D TV each day and the sensitivity some children show in reaction to 3-D viewing. It is difficult to make actual lab studies of longer term 3-D viewing in children because of the possible harm of the experiment. Researchers will have to wait until 3-D TV technology is already in the marketplace for a number of years, then check heavy 3-D TV watchers and compare them with non-watchers.‎ ‎ With a 3-D television technology in the home, we will soon be able to answer the question of whether or not longer and more frequent periods of 3-D exposure cause more changes in the visual system. We may find that the bigger problem is the introduction of a new technology that leads to even more time spent on TV rather than playing outdoors.‎ ‎8. According to the text, 3-D technology ______‎ A. was refused by people when it first appeared.‎ B. will soon change the way we watch TV.‎ C. does no good to our visual system.‎ D. has a history of nearly 200 years.‎ ‎9. Paragraph 2 is mainly about________‎ A. how 3-D technology works. B. why 3-D movies are popular C. the history of 3-D technology. D. the influence of 3-D technology.‎ ‎10. What’s the method suggested in paragraph 4?‎ A. To wait and see B. To carry out lab studies C. To stop making 3-D movies D. To improve 3-D technology ‎11. The author’s purpose in writing the text is to _______‎ A. ask children not to watch 3-D movies B. discuss if 3-D viewing is harmful to children.‎ C. introduce the advantages of 3-D technology.‎ D. predict the development of 3-D technology.‎ D Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a low carbon economy，a Chinese government official said in Shanghai yesterday.‎ ‎“China doesn't lag developed nations in terms of energy saving and green ‎ economy”，said Zhou Changyi，director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.‎ ‎“While we can learn many aspects from developed nations，they also should learn something from us，such as water conservation，” Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China's Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair 2009.‎ He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to combat climate change. The United Kingdom，for example，is concerned about transport，buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions. For China，the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized.‎ As such，overseas exhibitors at this year's fair are showing ways to help China achieve low carbon emissions in the industrial section.‎ Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product lifecycle assessment，or LCA，which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling.‎ Tobias Becker，head of ABB's process automation division for North Asia and China，said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions.‎ LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product's environmental impact throughout its lifecycle instead of on its initial investment or ready to use stage. For example，a motor's initial investment accounts for only 3 percent of its lifecycle cost，while 94 percent goes to fuel consumption and the rest to maintenance.‎ Richard Hausmann，North East Asia CEO of Siemens，said，“The color of future industrialization is green.”‎ The Germany Company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros (US 8.8 billion) for intelligent net power networks，Smart Grid，over the next five years. Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business.‎ A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology，advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy，reduce costs and increase reliability. The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid.‎ ‎12.“______” can replace the underlined word “lag”in paragraph 2．‎ A. Fall behind B. Be superior to ‎ C. Attack D. Fear ‎13. We can infer ______ from the last two paragraphs of this passage.‎ A. Siemens has occupied 20 percent market share for the global smart grid business B. Siemens received orders worth 6 billion Euros recently C. Siemens will earn $ 8.8 billion from intelligent power networks D. Siemens' plan about Smart Grid may come true in the future ‎14. ______ about Smart Grid isn't mentioned in the passage.‎ A. Energy saving B. Low cost ‎ C. Security D. Small in size ‎15. The best title for the passage ______.‎ A. Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn From Each Other B. Low carbon Economy—a Shared Goal C. Intelligent Power Networks D. Two Biggest Markets for Smart Grid 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。‎ Investing in yourself Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task. This is something that you will want to learn how to do.‎ ‎__16__Things that will improve your knowledge, skills or health are all great investments. However, before you start, you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things.‎ ‎ You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education. __17__. There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill.‎ ‎ So what are some specific things you can do? __18__. Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge. I’m talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill, not fiction books.‎ ‎ You can also take courses and attend seminars. These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill. __19__. Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation.‎ ‎ Moreover, investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money. Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment, that isn’t 100% safe. Even if you never experience your bank closing down, the return is little when inflation(通货膨胀) is taken into consideration. __20__. But over time, they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success.‎ A. This is just one way.‎ B. The benefits will stay with you.‎ C. If you aren’t a reader, you should start with that.‎ D. The more you do this, the more valuable you will be.‎ E. Of course, you need to do some research before investing.‎ F. The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself.‎ G. When you invest in yourself, you may not see gains right away.‎ 第二部分 英语知识运用 (共两节，满分45)‎ 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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ ‎ They say after a parent dies, the surviving children can take on some of their parent’s characteristics. I 21 becoming anything like my dad for years 22 I wanted to be me, not him; but there I sat at his memorial service several months ago, telling myself, “ You’ve 23 a lot more of your dad in you than you think.”‎ ‎ There is this phrase my dad 24 , and I know I’m going to sound 25 to complain about it, but it used to 26 me. “I am so proud of you,” he told us kids, whether we’d won a race or helped others.

I knew the feeling of parental 35 well, especially when my boys achieved in ways that were 36 my comprehension and ability, but I looked for other ways to 37 it. “That’s an extremely good story you’ve written!” I would say about the composition. I thought that by making my praise 38 , it would feel like I was claiming their achievement less as mine and more as one they could own themselves.‎ ‎ So just the other day when my older son sent me an email about his scholarship, I searched for 39 things to say, but finally 40 he doesn’t need my cleverness. They just want what my dad gave me. “I’m so proud of you,” I wrote.

You asked me for some suggestions on how to be a guest in China. Here are some suggestions received by most Chinese.‎ Firstly, when you visit a Chinese family, you’d better bring some gifts. In China, it is usually considered impolite to visit someone with nothing in hand. So, you can buy some fresh fruits or a box of milk. What’s more, table manners are also of great importance. We Chinese like to treat our guests with many delicious dishes. When at table, you should not begin eating first, but follow the host or the senior one.‎ ‎ Sometimes, the host will help you with some dishes, which is different from western traditions, and you should show your appreciation.‎ All in all, just as the old saying goes, “when in Rome, do as Romans do.”‎ I do hope you will enjoy yourself in your teacher’s home.‎ ‎ Yours sincerely,‎ ‎ Li Hua
