2023届东北三省四市教研联合体高三下学期模拟试卷（一）英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、未知In Singapore, it seems like art is at every turn. Look closely and you’ll discover master-pieces in front of an office building, a walkway, and even on a rooftop garden, where everyone can appreciate them up close. In order to further promote art, festivals are held throughout the year. Here are some of the biggest art draws to come.ARTWALK                 When: JanuaryAn annual public art festival, Artwalk takes place in the culturally rich neighborhoods of Little India and Katong-Joo Chiat. Visitors can learn about the food, stories and history of two of Singapore’s most distinct communities on guided walking tours.

I am excited that I have realized my life-long dream.I will never forget at primary school I used to wait with breathless anticipation to take my turn reading out a paragraph of great works in front. At my secondary school, when students were encouraged to select and present a reading at “morning talk”, I often added my name to the list.This was all handy background for my career in broadcasting. But, much as I enjoy hosting shows and interviewing people, I often find myself missing the simple pleasures of reading out loud. I’d thought about putting myself forward as a narrator(朗读者)for audio books. But I’m not an actor. I can’t do regional accents or play female voice. Non-fiction, then, seemed the obvious target, but I felt that such books were best read by their original authors. If it were authors’ own voice, their stories would touch me.Recently, delivering my son’s nightly bedtime story has reawakened my love for reading out loud-highlights so far have included Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlotte’s Web. But I never thought I’d get the opportunity to do it professionally.Then, last month, I was contacted by James Plunkett, author of End State, a forthcoming book about political ideas. He had no desire to read his book out loud, but as a fan of my program, he thought I might do a reasonable job.So, I’ve spent this week in a studio, simply reading stuff out loud. And I’m LOVING IT!Obviously, it’s an entirely unexpected experience. It’s disheartening when the recording needs to be stopped because I’ve just carelessly skipped over a “the”, or had to clear my throat, or catch my breath. I’ve also learned how many words I’ve been mispronouncing my entire life: behavioural is BE-HAYVE-YOU-RAL, not BE-HAYVE-EE-AH-RUL. Though tackling this 339-page book doesn’t turn out to be that easy, I’ve found the whole process awesome, and hope this becomes the first of many.4．What does the writer want to show by mentioning his experiences at school?A．The power of dreaming.B．His love for reading aloud.C．The impact of schooling.D．His talent for reading.5．What can we learn about the writer from paragraph 3?A．He regretted being a host.B．He disliked non-fiction books.C．He lacked working experience.D．He lacked confidence in narrating.6．Why did the writer get the job as a narrator?A．He was good at reading bedtime story.B．He applied for it in person.C．He was appointed by the author.D．He had crowds of fans.7．What does the writer think of being a narrator?A．Demanding but fruitful.B．Risky but enjoyable.C．Turing but stress-free.D．Boring but rewarding.  二、阅读理解People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan researchers shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3, 376 people. Overall, they found that just 2. 3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4. 3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well-only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.But what really made a difference were people’s motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more. important were more likely to have died, and just a8 likely to die as those who didn’t volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.Konrath says the current finding suggests it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it’s good for them. “Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it’s okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering.” Konrath added, “Of course, it’s reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person’s main motive”.8．What does the new study mainly find?A．Whether we volunteer decides our well-being.B．Why we volunteer has an impact on our health.C．How we volunteer makes sense to others.D．How often we volunteer makes a difference.9．How did the researchers do the study?A．By analyzing statistics.B．By rating volunteers’ performances.C．By doing lab experiments.D．By grouping volunteers randomly.10．Which motive will probably contribute to a longer life?A．To make more friends.B．To develop social ability.C．To solve personal problems.D．To help people in trouble.11．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．Practical suggestions on further studies.B．Potential applications of the research method.C．A further explanation of the current finding.D．A reasonable doubt about the research findings.  三、未知Swot satellite is scheduled to be launched Thursday morning to conduct a comprehensive survey of Earth’s vital resource. By using advanced microwave radar technology, it will collect height-surface measurements of oceans, lakes and rivers in high-definition detail over 90% of the globe. It’s really the first time to observe nearly all water on the planet’s surface.The major mission is to explore how oceans absorb atmospheric heal and CO2 in a natural process that adjusts climate change. Oceans are estimated to have absorbed more than 90% of the extra heat trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere by human-caused greenhouse gases. Swot will scan(查看) the seas and precisely measure fine differences in surface elevations (高度) around smaller currents and eddies (漩涡), where much of the oceans’ decrease of heat and carbon is believed to occur. “Studying the mechanism will help climate scientists answer a key question: What is the turning point at which oceans start releasing, rather than absorbing, huge amounts of heat back into the atmosphere and speed up global warming, rather than limiting it,” said Nadya Shiffer, Swot’s program scientist.By comparison, earlier studies of water bodies relied on data of rivers or oceans taken at specific points, or from satellites that can only track measurements along a one – dimensional line, requiring scientists to fill in data gaps through extrapolation (外推法). Thanks to the radar instrument, Swot can scan through cloud cover and darkness over wide ranges of the Earth. This enables scientists to accurately map their observations in two dimensions regardless of weather or time of day and to cover large geographic areas far more quickly than was previously possible.“Rather than giving us a line of elevations, it’s giving us a map of elevations, and that’s just a total game changer ,”said Tamlin Pavelsky, Swot freshwater science leader.12．What do the underlined words “vital resource” in the first paragraph refer to?A．Technology. B．Climate. C．Oceans. D．Water.13．What is the major mission of Swot satellite?A．To explore where oceans absorb heat and CO2.B．To explain why greenhouse gas comes into being.C．To identify when global warming is worsened.D．To study how oceans influence climate change.14．What makes it possible for Swot io measure precisely?A．The high-definition computer.B．Advanced radar technology.C．The three-dimensional image.D．An accurate map of elevations,15．Which is the most suitable title for the text?A．First Global Water Survey from SpaceB．Successful Launch of Swot SatelliteC．A Breakthrough in Space TravelD．A Solution to Climate Change Many people think you’re either a creative person or you’re not.

Every day it was something different. The hours away at school were long enough to cause a terrible change to my private room. Today can be no different.As I entered the house, Mom greeted me with a smile. It seemed like nothing was wrong. Still, I wouldn’t believe. Yesterday, I discovered a chocolate cookie spread around the mouth of my angel statue. Its pink lips were covered in chocolate. Obviously, Callie had shared her cookie with my angel.I looked around for my little sister, Callie, who had just turned three. I didn’t see her. As I checked the sitting room, I noticed it was pretty messy. There were toys all around. There were a few headless dolls, some blocks, the remains of a grape stuck into the carpet. I searched around and there she was, sitting on the sofa with the TV remote in her sticky hands. She looked up and saw me. A huge smile broke out on her face, and she laughed, clapping her hands. I was surprised that they didn’t stick together.“Sissy (sister)!” She jumped off the sofa and ran to me, hugging my knees and almost tipping me over. “Hi, Callie,” I said, with the slightest smile. I ruffled (抚弄) her long thick hair, and some white crumbs (残渣) fell to the carpet. “Cheese, sissy”, Callie said, pointing at the crumbs that had settled onto the carpet. I found a strong smell of cheese from them. Had Callie focused on destroying only the sitting room? A voice raced across my mind. No way. Not my sister, the destroyer. Not my sister, the three-year-old terror. I turned around and started the scared climb to my room.注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。I pushed the door open and saw a complete mess again!___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Seeing the tears in her eyes, I bent down and lifted her up gently.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
