This system allows students to apply to up to five universities with just one application. It costs 20 for a single choice or 25 for more than one choice.The application consists of a series of questions to determine the student’s schooling and applicants should describe their personal interests and related experiences.SwitzerlandSwitzerland has four official languages and its universities are among the most international in the world. International applicants may need to take an entrance exam if they have a foreign school certificate, and must also prove that they have a good grasp of the French language. usually through taking a language exam. The full application costs 50 Swiss Francs for a holder of a Swiss diploma and 150 Swiss Francs for holders of foreign diplomas.CanadaInternational applicants have to write up a personal profile as part of their application, which is very similar to the personal statement required for a UK university application. Students will also have to prove their English-language competency—there are nine ways to meet the English Language Admission Standard, which are listed on many university websites.SingaporeThe process of applying to a Singaporean university is very much alike, but overseas students may be delighted to find that the native applicants have to cover the same procedures: filling out an online application form and submit identification documents, supporting documents and an application fee of $20.21.Which country requires international applicants know French well A.UK. B.Switzerland. C.Canada. D.Singapore.22.What part of the application is similar between the UK and Canada A.The application system. B.The number of universities.C.The application cost. D.The personal statement.23.What’s special about the application process in Singapore A.Applicants need to pay a lot. B.It is much simpler than elsewhere.C.It’s no different for native students. D.The competition is even more fierce.BMy name is Matthew. I’m not someone who has many secrets, because I’m a terrible liar. But there is one huge secret that I kept for years—I failed my driving test. I had never failed test before, and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind the wheel was a different story.But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my school, showing off the brand new license they’d gotten. Looking back on that special day, I can’t remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over(停靠). I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasn’t upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class, I told everyone I didn’t want to take the test on my birthday.One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling I’ve never experienced- but sill, I couldn’t imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didn’t. It wasn’t until midway through college that I came clean. It turned out plenty of my college friends had failed too! And gathered enough courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without which one couldn’t make a true man.24.What can we learn about Matthew A.He was a slow learner of driving. B.He relied heavily on his parents.C.He was afraid of taking exams. D.He was bored with telling lies.25.Why did the instructor ask Matthew to pull over A.To put an end to his test. B.To check his parking skills.C.To give him a second chance. D.To show him a better way of driving.26.What made Matthew feel extremely worried after his first attempt A.Failing to get a driving license. B.Missing his birthday celebration.C.Making his parents disappointed. D.Losing face before his classmates27.What did Matthew learn from his own experience A.Honesty is the best policy. B.Failure is a way to grow up.C.Truth stands the test of time. D.Imperfection is another form of perfection.CWhat does it mean to cry over a book “I’m a reader who did not weep.” Ruth Graham, a well-known critic, wrote. “Does this make me heartless Or does it make me a grown-up ”Tears have played a surprisingly important part in the history of the novel. Readers have always asked about the role that emotion plays in reading: What does it mean to be deeply moved by a book Which books are worthy objects of our feelings In different times, people answered those questions in different ways. In the 18th century, when the novel was still a new form, crying was a sign of readers’ virtue. “Sentimental” novels, full of touching scenes, gave readers an occasion to exercise their “finer feelings”. Your tear proved your susceptibility(易感性) to the suffering of others.At that time, sentimental novels were hugely popular, but also easy to attack. Tears, after all, had no necessary connection to actual virtue, and they could be fake. There could also be too many of them. As the critic John Mullan points out, by the end of the eighteenth century, the word “sentimental” had acquired a new meaning “addicted to indulgence(沉溺) in superficial(肤浅的) emotion”—bringing it closer to the meaning that it has for us today.In the 19th century the meaning of tears evolved in two different directions. Some writers sought to waken “higher” feelings in their readers: Victorian sentimentalists wrote touching scenes in an effort to inspire social and political reform. However, the “sensation” novel, a different type of Victorian best-seller, showed that tears could be enjoyable in themselves. Sensation novels were the forerunners(先导) of the modern thriller and mystery. Heavy on secrets, and madness, they were known for creating physical “sensations” in their readers— trembling, a fast beating heart, and tears. But these were tears without moral purpose or effect.Today’s debate about crying while reading looks back on all of this history. The debate, in fact, is about why books matter to us, and what reading is “for”. Talking about what makes us cry is a way of talking about ourselves.28.What was people’s attitude towards crying over novels in the early 18th century A.Doubtful. B.Positive C.Unclear D.Worried.29.According to the text, “sensation” novels __________.A.were similar to the modern thriller and mystery B.were the same as sentimental novelsC.aimed for social and political reform D.tended to amuse the readers30.How does the author present this text A.By providing examples. B.By making comparisons.C.By following the order of time. D.By following the order of importance.31.What’s the best title for the text A.Crying While Reading Through Centuries B.The History of The NovelC.Sentimental Novels & Sensation Novels D.Why Books Matter to UsDIn designing the robots of tomorrow, engineers have gained many of their inspirations from the kingdom of creatures, with machines that mimic the way plants and animals move and sense their environment.In recent study, researchers at Cornell University have found that mycelia, the underground parts of mushrooms, have the ability to sense chemical and biological signals and respond to multiple inputs. By using the natural electrical signals of mycelia, the researchers found a new way to control biohybrid (生物混合) robots, which can react to their surroundings better than traditional man-made robots. With great efforts, two biohybrid robots were built: a soft robot shaped like a spider and a wheeled robot. The robots responded to mycelia’s signals by walking and rolling. They also changed their position in response to light, demonstrating the mycelia’s ability to react to outer influences.However, finding a way to integrate mushrooms and robots requires more than just gardening and technical skills. “You have to have a background in mechanical engineering, electronics, some neurobiology (神经生物学), and even some kind of signal processing. All these fields come together to build this kind of system,” said Shepherd, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.“Living systems respond to touch, light, heat and even some unknowns, like signals. This is why we believe that if we want to build future robots, they must be able to work in unexpected environments,” said Mishra, a research associate in the Organic Robotics Lab of Cornell University. “By growing mycelia into the electronics of a robot, we were able to allow the biohybrid machine to sense and respond to the environment. In this case we used light as the input, but in the future it will be chemical. The potential for future robots could be to sense soil chemistry in row crops and decide when to add more fertilizer (肥料),” said Shepherd.32.What does the underlined word “mimic” mean in paragraph 1 A.Control. B.Judge. C.Change. D.Copy.33.Why are mycelia used in robot design A.For their mushroom shape. B.For their perception and response abilities.C.For their chemical potential. D.For their chemical and biological influences.34.What does Shepherd emphasize about the process in paragraph 3 A.Technical skills. B.Scientific methods.C.Subject integration. D.Innovative application.35.Which of the following can be the potential application for future biohybrid robots A.Monitoring soil condition. B.Designing electronic systems.C.Replacing human experience. D.Strengthening unknown signals.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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Teach A Child to Ride A Bike You never forget how to ride a bike, but most of us forget how hard it was to learn. 36 . Here’s what to keep in mind when instructing little ones from two feet to two wheels.Begin with the right equipment. Start with a bicycle that’s the right size. A newbie should be able to sit on the seat with both feet flat on the ground. If the child has been using a bike with training wheels, remove them. 37 . Long pants and long-sleeved shirts aren’t a bad idea, either, to prevent injury in the event of a fall.38 .

The organization is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and program funding at an event.Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organization, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today.”“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left,” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about seven years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.After a while, he asked, “What is cancer ”I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it.”“Do children suffer from cancer, too ” asked the boy.“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help,” Lisa said, and I nodded.Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected ”Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much.”The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one-dollar and five-dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。The boy happily ran to us, holding something tightly in his hand. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Both Lisa and I were deeply touched.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________高三第三次模拟考试英语答案21-23:BDC 24-27:AADB 28-31:BACA 32-35:DBCA36-40:FEAGD41-45:DBADB 46-50:CACBD 51-55:CDABC56.admiration 57.successfully 58.constructed 59.damaging 60.was given 61.to respect62.it 63.to 64.an 65.which应用文:Technology and LifeToday, I am honored to deliver a speech with the theme of “Technology and Life”.Technology has greatly improved our daily life in many ways. First, smartphones and the internet make communication faster -we can video call anyone worldwide instantly. Second, AI tools like translation apps help break language barriers. Third, smart home devices free us from chores. Most importantly, medical technology saves lives through advanced treatments.However, technology is a double-edged sword. While it brings convenience, overuse can lead to addiction or reduce face-to-face interaction. In my opinion, we should embrace technology wisely -using it to solve problems but not letting it control us.Let’s enjoy tech’s benefits while staying human! Thank you!读后续写The boy happily ran to us, holding something tightly in his hand. Out of breath, he asked, “Would you take a donation from children ” In his hands, he clutched a few crumpled dollar bills. Lisa and I were greatly astonished that a little boy actually cared, so we asked why he wanted to donate the little money he had. The boy replied in an innocent tone, saying that he thought it was the right thing to do and that he wanted to give the money to those who needed it more. Since he couldn’t do this himself, he was grateful that we could reach out to people in need and deliver the money on his behalf.Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. Many people were so obsessed with themselves that they became insensitive to the suffering of others. However, the little boy, young as he was, acted out of a genuine instinct of goodwill and was able to reach out without hesitation. What the boy did again evoked in me a belief in the noble quality of human empathy. Thanks to him, I reaffirmed the value of the voluntary work I was doing - to serve as a bridge, through which goodwill would be communicated and good deeds be performed.文本句式点评:1.准确的动词推动情节:clutch a few crumpled dollar bills攥着几张钞票reply in an innocent tone以天真的语气回答reach out to people in need接触到需要帮助的人be so obsessed with themselves太过关注自己evoke in me a belief in...唤醒我对…的信念reaffirm the value of...再次确认的价值to serve as a bridge作为一座桥梁communicate goodwill传达善意perform good deeds做好事2.形容词和副词使表达更生动:crumpled dollar bills皱了的钞票an innocent tone天真的语气become insensitive to…对……变得麻木noble quality of human empathy人类同理心这一高贵的品质3.高分句型:宾语从句、定语从句、状语从句的综合运用:Lisa and I were greatly astounded that a little boy actually cared, so we asked why he wanted to donate the little money he had.现在分词、并列宾语从句、定语从句的综合运用:The boy replied in an innocent tone, saying that he thought it was the right thing to do and that he wanted to give the money to those who needed it more.结果状语从句:Many people were so obsessed with themselves that they became insensitive to the suffering of others.让步状语从句倒装:However, the little boy, young as he was, acted out of a genuine instinct of goodwill and was able to reach out without hesitation.主语从句:What the boy did again evoked in me a belief in the noble quality of human empathy.非限制性定语从句:Thanks to him, I reaffirmed the value of the voluntary work I was doing- to serve as a bridge, through which goodwill would be communicated and good deeds be performed.4.内容协同呼应:前文提到很少有人捐款,续写部分对此进行了剖析,即越来越的人太过关注自身而对他人的苦难变得麻木,与小男孩关爱他人的天性形成了对比,从而引出了文章主旨。 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源预览
