2023届陕西省镇安中学高三下学期三模英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Some movies better picture some areas of study that are difficult to understand with just textbook assignments. Here are some. WALL·EThis science fiction movie helps to improve our focus on ways to find what life is about and to face the problem rather than sitting with it. And at times it is important to live the life rather than surviving and it is good to make decisions based on the current status of the situation rather than going with the past experiences.Legally BlondeThis is the story of a young girl who overcame her inferiority feelings and insecurity to get her education from Harvard Law School. It is inspiring for those who fail to recognize their talents and keep on standing backwards. This movie makes it to the point that a good effort and a determination can help anyone to make use of their potential and gain more respect in life. The Manhattan ProjectThis movie tells the story of teenagers whose school science project came out in a much bigger way than the norms. The making of nuclear bomb by the students with the information gathered from the Internet is inspiring in terms of what a teenager can do with will power and hard work. Remember the TitansThis movie showcases the importance of team work, a true leader and perseverance to achieve success. It tells the story of a good coach of a school’s football team who used his leadership qualities to bridge the cultural gap among his students to help them perform as a team and win the championship.1．What’s the theme of WALL·E?A．Education. B．Friendship. C．Team spirit. D．The meaning of life.2．Which movie is the most helpful for a student with self-doubt?A．WALL·E. B．Legally Blonde.C．The Manhattan Project. D．Remember the Titans.3．What can be known about The Manhattan Project?A．It is based on a real-life story.B．It is a computer-animated film.C．It creates a group of scientists.D．It explores the potential of teenagers. Leisa Duckwall has worked for four years as a food nutrition service worker at the school, serving students breakfast and lunch. But not once had she ever seen a student say “hello”, or “good morning”, or even “thank you”, Duckwall is deaf. But now, the entire school is learning sign language, the students specifically to better communicate with Duckwall. No more point-ing, now, there are words, including “hello”, “good morning”, and “thank you”. When asked how it’s made her feel, Duckwall got straight to the point. “Happy,” she said. Before spreading to the entire school, it started in Kari Maskelony’s fourth-grade classroom. Maskelony grew up with hard-of-hearing family members. She knows sign language, but throughout her life, she has witnessed her loved ones’ frustrations when people are unable to understand them. “I noticed that all the kids realized that Ms Duckwall couldn’t hear them,” Maskelony said. So she asked her students, “Do you guys want to learn how to sign to Ms Duckwall what you want for lunch instead of pointing?” They said yes. The class started with the basics of what they would need to know for interactions with Duckwall. They started with the main dishes, learning the sign language words for chicken, fish and other typical school cafeteria cuisines. Next, the students learned to sign letters. It didn’t take long before principal Janet Wright Davis heard about what was going on. “Is it just Ms Maskelony’s class who are doing it? Let’s teach the whole school,” Janet said. “Let’s teach the whole school sign language.”“Not only is it great for the kids because they can learn a new skill that they can carry with them and actually use with other people that they meet, but I think it is great because equal inclusivity (包容性) and equal access is so important,” Janet said. “It’s just something that we don’t often see.”The teachers claim their students love sign language. The adults claim the kids think it’s “fun”, and they agree. Every single fourth-grader in Maskelony’s class gave sign language a positive review. And they all liked their collective hard work, if for nothing else, to make Duckwall feel included.4．What can we know about Leisa Duckwall?A．She was often misunderstood.B．She feels sad to be pointed at.C．She serves students three meals a day.D．She was unable to interact with students well before.5．What made Maskelony want to teach students sign language?A．Her students’ requests.B．The principal’s suggestion.C．Her hard-of-hearing families.D．Leisa Duckwall’s desire.6．What did Janet do when knowing some students were learning sign letters?A．She gave a big prize to Maskelony.B．She decided to promote the practice.C．She began to learn sign language too.D．She praised the fourth-grade students.7．What can we infer from Janet’s words?A．Sign language benefits students’ study.B．It’s important for students to learn more skills.C．Students should communicate more with others.D．Learning sign language helps students have better values. Modern breeds (狗的品种) are often recognized by physical traits. Breeds are frequently associated with certain behaviors, too. But new evidence suggests that the breed is a poor predictor of your dog’s behaviors. A study collected genetic information from more than 2,000 dogs. That information was paired with answers to surveys by thousands of dog owners. On average, the breed explains only 9 percent of the behavioral differences between individual dogs, the study shows. Elinor Karlsson, who works at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical Schoo1 in Worcester, studies dog genetics. “Everybody is assuming that the breed is predictive of behaviors in dogs,” she said. But “that has never really been asked particularly well”. The team needed genetic and behavior data from a lot of dogs. So they developed Darwin’s Ark. It’s a database where pet owners can share information about their animals. More than 18, 000 owners took part. They answered more than 100 questions about their dog’s traits and observable behaviors. The researchers also collected genetic data from 2,155 dogs. The team made sure to include both pure-bred and mixed-bred dogs, or mutts. Stereotypes (刻板印象) about purebreds could affect how those dogs are treated-and thus behave. Mutts don’t come with the same expectations. So mutt data could help focus on how genes seem to affect behaviors.The team then combined the genetic and survey data for individual dogs. They looked for genes that appeared linked to particular traits. Comfort around people emerged as the behavior- al factor most strongly tied to genetics. Movement-based behaviors are also passed down through genes more than other traits.That makes sense. Modern breeding has only been around for the last few hundred years. Before that, dogs were chosen for how well they did jobs, such as hunting or herding. The effects of those choices still show up in breed groups today. It’s not surprising, then, that a breed as a whole might be more likely to display certain behaviors. As their name suggests, retrievers (寻回犬) are more likely to retrieve than individuals of other breeds. But in the study, breed didn’t always predict how an individual dog would behave. As a group, retrievers were less likely to howl. Some owners, though, reported their retrievers howled often.8．What does the study find?A．Dogs are as individual as people.B．One dog can share another breed’s behaviors.C．Breeds have nothing to do with certain behaviors.D．Breeds don’t relate much to dog behavioral differences.9．Why did researchers build Darwin’s Ark?A．To study the evolution of dogs.B．To help pet owners find their dogs.C．To collect information of rare dogs.D．To learn more about dogs’ behaviors.10．Why can mutts help study links between genes and behaviors?A．People have stereotypes of them.B．There is less information about them.C．Their breeds are less predictive of behaviors.D．They show more distinct traits than pure-bred dogs.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Dogs are as smart as peopleB．We may be unfairly stereotyping dogsC．Pay less attention to its breed when buying a dogD．Dogs are often recognized by physical traits A housing block in Wales has been fitted with a world-first solar system that connects all the flats to the same rooftop panels. The residents of Odet Court in Cardiff are set to save 50 percent off their energy bills thanks to the new technology, which can meet up to 75 percent of each flat’s electricity demand. Australian manufacturer Allume Energy claims that its SolShare model is the only technology that enables solar energy from a single rooftop system to be shared by multiple homes in the same building. The Welsh government funded the pioneering project with social housing landlord Wales ＆ West Housing, as part of a nationwide retrofitting (改装) programme. And housing blocks across Europe could soon benefit from the eco-innovation. Allume Energy points out that 300 million Europeans live in low-and medium-rise apartment buildings with roof space for solar panels. People’s appetite for solar panels is increasing greatly. Around 1.2 million UK homes have them installed, according to the latest MCS standards agency figures. But more is needed to speed up the solar roll-out, and make the green energy source accessible for everyone. Allume Energy General Manager for Europe Jack Taylor says he hopes the Welsh project will serve as a template for governments and social housing providers in the UK to upgrade multi-unit residences. As well as saving money on hardware, the company says that SolShare has boosted solar use by more than 25 percent. The new system is suitable for retrofit projects as well as new buildings, as it does not require any changes to existing supply and metering infrastructure. Based on the average use of 18, 000 kW·h to 2, 400 kW·h for a one-bed flat, Allume Energy estimates that this translates to an electricity bill saving of around 50 percent. Given current average electricity costs in the UK of 34 P/kW·h, that means each flat are likely to save between £390 to £530 a year, which is a significant amount off in a cost of living crisis.12．What is special about the rooftop solar system in Wales?A．It is the world’s first solar system.B．It is shared by all the flats in a building.C．It is fitted on the roofs of separate flats.D．It cuts the users’ electricity costs by 75%.13．Who could benefit first from the project funded by the Welsh government?A．People living in flats with roof space for solar panels.B．Rural residents eager for green energy.C．Villagers often experiencing power failure.D．Rich people with their own separate houses.14．What does the underlined word “template” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Change.B．Goal.C．Model.D．Warning.15．In what aspect does the solar system benefit its users?A．Less power failure.B．Lower electricity bills.C．Reduced-price electricity.D．Less demand for electricity.  二、七选五Stress and holidays seem to go hand-in-hand. ____16____ However, this may be a good time to try to rethink about holidays and view holidays as an opportunity to improve your psychological well-being.

It’s a challenging job. The first problem I had to solve was how to improve his learning enthusiasm. I used pictures, stories and prizes to stimulate his interest, which turned out to work. The second challenge was to improve his poor listening. I found some interesting Chinese cartoons and watched them with him for 30 minutes every day. After a month. he was able to understand most of the speech in the cartoons. It’s a joy to see my own efforts fruitful. I’ve also learnt that being a good teacher requires a sense of humor and teaching skills besides knowledge.
