They cause chaos. B. They damage immunity.C. They reveal secrets. D. They mirror reality.25.Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3 A. To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep. B. To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours.C. To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached. D. To show people often dream when waking up in the morning.26.What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5 A. Dreaming promotes creativity. B. Dreaming helps fight depression.C. The brain still receives new information during REM sleep. D. The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep.27.What's the main idea of the passage A. The importance of sleep lies in dreams. B. The absence of dreams is terrible for us.C. Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize. D. Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories.CWhy Subscribe to Reader’s Digest The world’s best-loved general-interest publication contains something for everyone.

They recorded runners in a bull-run event. B. They proved their theory.C. They watched a thrilling bullfight. D. They designed a psychological experiment.32.What was the unexpected finding in the study A. People slowed down in crowded areas. B. Collisions posed a danger to bull-runners.C. Bulls' coming near made people run faster. D. People tended to speed up in high-density crowds.33.What is implied in the last paragraph A. People lose their mind in disasters. B. Future tunnels and bridges may be wider.C. Panicked crowds are aware of the danger of collisions. D. Restricting flow helps to prevent people colliding with each other.34.Which is the best title for the text A. How the Crowds React to Panic B. Bull Running Catches on in SpainC. Dr Parisi's Finding Shocks the World D. What Architects Can Learn from Bull Running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。I’ve been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots. As a foreigner, I couldn’t care less about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine. ____ 35 ____ So I always attempt to find something that’s appealing and fun yet represents the local culture, and that offers an interaction with the locals.My reputation for doing this has grown. ____ 36 ____ Since I am somewhat fluent in Spanish, I could charge people for this and become somewhat of an official tour guide. I choose not to though, because to me, the most important thing is making sure the tourist, who already spent a lot of time and money getting to where I am, has the fun and cultural experience they could possibly have. ____ 37 ____ In that case, tourists can explore the local culture further at the lowest cost. They could otherwise spend a significant sum of money on a guided tour that keeps them comfortable but separated from the culture. I choose to give them an experience that’s deeper and opens their mind, all for free.____ 38 ____ When someone is visiting your area, don’t just take them to the touristy spots. Show them the places that mean something to you. Show them your heart through the places that you show them and the experience you give them. There’s something good in almost every town out there. If you don’t have any spots in your area that you like, learn to find the good in the place you live. If you find the good in where you live, you will also find the good in yourself. It’s a time that both you and the tourist will probably never obtain again. ____ 39 ___A. Everyone can do the same.B. I could hardly have imagined it would happen.C. It could also help me create a lifelong connection with them.D. What’s most crucial is experiencing the genuine country and culture.E. I know better than tourists themselves what they are eager to experience.F. Don’t rush the experience, thoroughly enjoy every moment with that person.G. I’m being asked frequently to offer people tours, both to friends and strangers.第三部分 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。Last June I worked as a volunteer in a remote Aboriginal community.

Thankfully, one homeless man’s note was about to get found by someone willing to help turn his life around.Anthony Johnson is a 36-year-old man who had been living without a home in England. Sadly, his time on the streets meant that Anthony struggled to find work. He soon decided to leave a note at a bus shelter asking anyone to give him a chance so he could make his life worth living.It turned out that Anthony had once got caught up with the wrong crowd. Although he has turned his life around, Anthony had no way of making money and couldn’t afford a home. To top it off, Anthony had also been battling his mental health in the last few years and just needed a chance to make it for himself.It wasn’t until 16-year-old Charlotte Howard saw the note that everything started to change. Charlotte wanted to help Anthony in his quest to turn things around and decided to start a GoFundMe page. Here, the teen hoped to raise almost $400—$130 to buy a trailer and the rest to cover the cost of the repairs.It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s post to take the nation by storm, and the page soon had more donations than the teen ever imagined. In just six days, Charlotte had blown her initial goal out of the water as the page had received more than $2,300 in donations. It was way more than either of the pair ever expected.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。Paragraph 1:Unbelievably, the generosity didn’t end there.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Charlotte Howard came up with a new idea about how to use the rest of the money.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________白城一中2025年高三第一次模拟考试英语试题考生注意:1. 答题前,请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。2. 答题时,请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求,在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答,在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分)做题时,先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后,你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。例:How much is the shirt A. 19.15.

Not everyone knows how important it is to sleep in darkness.A new report says sleeping with the light on could be bad for our health. Researchers said around 40% of people sleep with some sort of artificial light. They said even light from a television or an alarm clock could affect our health. Sleeping without any light is more difficult for people who live in cities where there is a lot of outdoor light at night. The researchers are from the northwestern university Feinberg school of medicine in Chicago, USA. The lead researcher, Dr Phyllis Z, is an expert in sleep medicine. Her team conducted a study of the blood sugar levels of twenty people after nights of sleep.The people who slept with a light on had higher blood sugar levels the next morning compared to those who slept in total darkness. Doctor Z said this is because light stimulates brain activity, which raises blood sugar levels. She said there are three things we can do to reduce the risk of illness. Turn off the lights, use a light blocking curtain and wear an eye mask.14.What is the talk mainly about A. The benefits of good sleep. B. The ways of improving sleep. C.

The Island of Horses.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。根据The Secret Kingdom部分中“Rich watercolor illustrations capture the region’s natural beauty.(丰富的水彩插图捕捉该地区的自然美景)”可知,The Secret Kingdom里面有相关的图片。故选B。22.What effect does the hurricane bring about according to When Life Gives You Mangos A. Clara’s home was destroyed. B. New girl will move to the island.C. The number of visitors is shrinking. D. Conversations about traveling will be sparked.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据When Life Gives You Mangos部分中“Since last summer’s hurricane, though, the tourists are thinning out(然而,自从去年夏天的飓风以来,游客越来越少)”可知,飓风带来的影响是游客的数量正在减少。故选C。23.Which of the following is True about The Island of Horses A. The book was first published in 2018. B. The story is set on the coast of Ireland.C. Life is hard on the remote island. D. Pat and Danny went to the Island of Horses to look for treasures.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据The Island of Horses部分中“Life on the remote island is anything but easy, but it’s all that friends Pat Conroy and Danny MacDonagh have ever known.(在这个遥远的小岛上生活并不容易,但这正是帕特·康罗伊和丹尼·麦克多纳所知道的一切)”可知,关于The Island of Horses 的说法中,C选项“在那个遥远的岛上生活很艰难”正确。故选C。Dreams,according to Carl Jung,reveal a certain amount of reality hidden during waking consciousness.In Jungian philosophy,the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring order to our lives.While Jung's mystical theories were debatable,he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming.A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways.This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic(新陈代谢的)systems,let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patterns,which has long-term consequences for our memory system.One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM(Rapid Eye Movement)sleep,the stage in which we dream,the mice couldn't strengthen memories.You might think this is just a sleep problem,but dreaming is inseparable from our nighttime rest.We sleep in cycles(周期),each lasting about 90 minutes; in a sleep cycle,we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM.As the night progresses,REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep (one of the stages of non-REM sleep)decreases.The longer we sleep,the more time we spend in REM,which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning.If we sleep less than seven hours,however,it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM.The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer.We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly.However,we're not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant(抗抑郁药)—dreams.Instead,we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep,which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM.We're paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways.For example,a 2021 study stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep,REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration(整合)of unassociated information.Volunteers that experienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring creative solutions.Rowan Hooper,the managing editor at New Scientist,writes that dreams that include an “emotional core” appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we look at diet and exercise habits.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了做梦和睡眠之间的关系,以及缺乏做梦给我们带来的损害。24.What's Carl Jung's view about dreams A. They cause chaos. B. They damage immunity.C. They reveal secrets. D. They mirror reality.【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Dreams,according to... during waking consciousness.”可知,Carl Jung认为梦揭示了在清醒意识中一些被隐藏的现实,即梦会反映现实。故选D。25.Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3 A. To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep. B. To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours.C. To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached. D. To show people often dream when waking up in the morning.【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段第一句内容可知,你可能认为这只是睡眠问题,但做梦与夜间休息是分不开的。再结合第三段最后两句“The longer we ... level of REM.”可知,我们睡得越久,在快速眼动阶段(做梦)花费的时间就越多,这就是我们早上醒来时经常在做梦的原因。然而,如果我们的睡眠时间少于7小时,就很难达到这种程度的快速眼动。由此可推知,我们是否做梦,与睡眠时长及睡眠过程中的快速眼动是有直接关系的,所以第三段对睡眠过程进行解释,是为了证明做梦问题和睡眠问题是有关联的。故选C。26.What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5 A. Dreaming promotes creativity. B. Dreaming helps fight depression.C. The brain still receives new information during REM sleep. D. The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep.【答案】A【解析】推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“Volunteers that experienced ... requiring creative solutions.”可知,经历了更多快速眼动睡眠的志愿者更善于解决需要创造性解决方案的问题。由此可推知,做梦能让人更具有创造力。故选A。27.What's the main idea of the passage A. The importance of sleep lies in dreams. B. The absence of dreams is terrible for us.C. Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize. D. Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories.【答案】B【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章第一段阐述了做梦的重要性,缺乏做梦会给我们带来损害;第二段介绍了缺乏做梦会对我们的免疫系统、新陈代谢系统和记忆造成损害;第四段说睡眠和做梦结合起来可以起到稳定情绪的作用;第五段说我们正以许多方式为缺乏做梦付出代价。由此可推知,本文主要介绍了缺乏做梦对于我们来说是可怕的。故选B。Why Subscribe to Reader’s Digest The world’s best-loved general-interest publication contains something for everyone.

They recorded runners in a bull-run event. B. They proved their theory.C. They watched a thrilling bullfight. D. They designed a psychological experiment.【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Dr Parisi and his team... the animals were released.”可知,2019年7月,Parisi博士和他的团队前往潘普洛纳的两个不同的屋顶地点,拍摄了动物被放出时的奔跑者。由此可知,Parisi博士和他的团队记录了奔牛活动中的奔跑者,故选A项。32.What was the unexpected finding in the study A. People slowed down in crowded areas. B. Collisions posed a danger to bull-runners.C. Bulls' coming near made people run faster. D. People tended to speed up in high-density crowds.【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd going up”可知,令人想不到的是,研究发现,跑步者的速度随着人群密度的增加而增加。由此可知,研究中让人意外的发现是在高密度人群中,人们往往会加速,故选D项。33.What is implied in the last paragraph A. People lose their mind in disasters. B. Future tunnels and bridges may be wider.C. Panicked crowds are aware of the danger of collisions. D. Restricting flow helps to prevent people colliding with each other.【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The responsibility therefore ... make them broad enough.”可知,城市设计师的责任在于研究如何最好地规划未来隧道、桥梁和其他限制流量的通道的建设,唯一的选择可能是使它们变得足够宽。由此可推知,未来的隧道和桥梁很可能会更宽,故选B项。34.Which is the best title for the text A. How the Crowds React to Panic B. Bull Running Catches on in SpainC. Dr Parisi's Finding Shocks the World D. What Architects Can Learn from Bull Running【答案】D【解析】标题归纳题。浏览全文,尤其是文章第一段和最后一段的内容可知,本文通过奔牛节活动来引出话题,并将此作为观察人们在危险中如何表现的自然实验场景,以便在城市建筑设计师规划未来隧道、桥梁和其他限制流量的通道时给出启示。故本文的最佳标题是D项。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。I’ve been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots. As a foreigner, I couldn’t care less about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine. ____ 35 ____ So I always attempt to find something that’s appealing and fun yet represents the local culture, and that offers an interaction with the locals.My reputation for doing this has grown. ____ 36 ____ Since I am somewhat fluent in Spanish, I could charge people for this and become somewhat of an official tour guide. I choose not to though, because to me, the most important thing is making sure the tourist, who already spent a lot of time and money getting to where I am, has the fun and cultural experience they could possibly have. ____ 37 ____ In that case, tourists can explore the local culture further at the lowest cost. They could otherwise spend a significant sum of money on a guided tour that keeps them comfortable but separated from the culture. I choose to give them an experience that’s deeper and opens their mind, all for free.____ 38 ____ When someone is visiting your area, don’t just take them to the touristy spots. Show them the places that mean something to you. Show them your heart through the places that you show them and the experience you give them. There’s something good in almost every town out there. If you don’t have any spots in your area that you like, learn to find the good in the place you live. If you find the good in where you live, you will also find the good in yourself. It’s a time that both you and the tourist will probably never obtain again. ____ 39 ___【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是作者作为一位生活在西班牙的外国人,建议人们带游客体验一下当地一些吸引人的、有趣又能代表当地文化的地方。A. Everyone can do the same.B.

Thankfully, one homeless man’s note was about to get found by someone willing to help turn his life around.Anthony Johnson is a 36-year-old man who had been living without a home in England. Sadly, his time on the streets meant that Anthony struggled to find work. He soon decided to leave a note at a bus shelter asking anyone to give him a chance so he could make his life worth living.It turned out that Anthony had once got caught up with the wrong crowd. Although he has turned his life around, Anthony had no way of making money and couldn’t afford a home. To top it off, Anthony had also been battling his mental health in the last few years and just needed a chance to make it for himself.It wasn’t until 16-year-old Charlotte Howard saw the note that everything started to change. Charlotte wanted to help Anthony in his quest to turn things around and decided to start a GoFundMe page. Here, the teen hoped to raise almost $400—$130 to buy a trailer and the rest to cover the cost of the repairs.It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s post to take the nation by storm, and the page soon had more donations than the teen ever imagined. In just six days, Charlotte had blown her initial goal out of the water as the page had received more than $2,300 in donations. It was way more than either of the pair ever expected.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。Paragraph 1:Unbelievably, the generosity didn’t end there.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Charlotte Howard came up with a new idea about how to use the rest of the money.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】[参考范文]Paragraph 1:Unbelievably, the generosity didn’t end there. The money was only the beginning as Anthony soon found himself with a brand new job offer from Nelson Smith. Now, Anthony will be able to put his skills to good use as a landscape gardener. This is merely the beginning of a huge change for Anthony—all thanks to Charlotte’s generosity.Paragraph 2:Charlotte Howard came up with a new idea about how to use the rest of the money. Inspired by Anthony’s story, Charlotte Howard began to offer more help to more homeless people. With other people’s help he founded a tiny organization to offer training to homeless people and bought necessary equipment. Anthony is invited to give training lessons about gardening skills. He is greatly encouraged while he encourages others. The new job not only has improved his living conditions but also has lifted up his spirits, bringing out the best in him. Starting the page might have been a small thought by Charlotte, but it was about to change Anthony’s life forever. Sometimes, those small acts of kindness really can change the world.【解析】[分析]本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了16岁的夏洛特为了帮助36岁的无家可归的安东尼,建立了一个名为GoFund- Me的网站,为他捐款。没想到此事在网络上引起强烈反响,筹集了大量善款,并且安东尼的工作也有了起色。受安东尼故事的启发,夏洛特用剩下的钱开始为更多无家可归的人提供帮助。有时候小小的善举真的可以改变世界。[详解]1.段落续写:①由第一段首句内容“令人难以置信的是,这种慷慨还没有到此为止。”可知,第一段可描写安东尼的生活也发生了巨大变化。②由第二段首句内容“夏洛特·霍华德对如何使用剩下的钱有了一个新的想法。”可知,第二段可描写夏洛特利用这笔多余的钱成立了一个组织,为更多无家可归的人提供帮助。2.续写线索:安东尼得到新工作——夏洛特用多余的钱成立组织——安东尼受邀教授园艺——安东尼的人生彻底被改变[点睛][高分句型1] The money was only the beginning as Anthony soon found himself with a brand new job offer from Nelson Smith.(运用了as引导的原因状语从句)[高分句型2] Inspired by Anthony’s story, Charlotte Howard began to offer more help to more homeless people.(运用了过去分词短语作原因状语) 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源预览 当前文档不提供在线查看服务,请下载使用!
