（2020·广东金山中学高三月考）    I suspect that we socialize more during the spring and summer months. Under the warm sun, yards bloom with cold drinks and conversation, barbecues get fired up, and parties quickly spill outside. Shifting these sweet summer parties to ones that arc also waste-free can be both simple and inexpensive, with just a few small changes to your habits.

The first step is to keep invitations virtual. Creating a Facebook event or sending a simple email is perfect for inviting guests to your party without generating waste from paper invitations, and if you're looking for something a bit more formal, sites such as Greenvelope and Paperless Post have given the cheesy e-vite a brilliant makeover. Virtual invites also allow you to track RSVPs, communicate with guests, and provide clickable info about your event.

To decorate, make use of the candles, flowers and greenery already in your outdoor space rather than stocking upon store-bought flowers, and consider using decorations that can be reused (like a cloth happy birthday banner, for example) rather than one-time use decorations. Skip the balloons in favour of large tissue paper pom-poms, and offer up any decorations still in decent condition to a free group after the event rather than just tossing them out.

The most obvious way to cut down on party waste, of course, is by getting rid of disposable plates, cups and cutlery. I shouldn't have to do much convincing in this department – does anyone actually enjoy using those paper plates that fold in half when you pile them high with too much greek salad or drip oil through the bottom? Has anyone in the history of the world ever actually successfully cut anything with one of those completely useless plastic knives? There really isn't much to be gained from using disposables.

With these shifts and a few other small adjustments here and there – paper straws instead of plastic, a large drink dispenser rather than individual soft drinks or juice boxes – you'll be set to celebrate all summer long, without suffering the accompanying garbage hangover the next day.

1．Which is the best title for the passage？

A．How to hold a successful garden party. B．Summer garden party habits.

C．How to hold greener summer parties. D．How to entertain your guests.

2．What does the underlined word “cheesy” in the second paragraph mean?

A．free. B．formal. C．plain. D．inviting.

3．What should we do with used decorations in good condition?

A．Donate them. B．Sell them.

C．Put them away. D．Throw them away.

4．Why docs the writer dislike paper plates?

A．They're too expensive. B．They're not practical.

C．They're not convincing. D．They're not popular.

（2019·广东佛山一中高三期中）    In 1947, the province Bengal of Pakistan was divided into two parts: the western part became India and the eastern part is known as East Bengal which was later known as East Pakistan. At that time there were many economic, social and cultural problems. In 1948, when government announced Urdu as the national language, it caused the protest among the Bengali speaking majority of Pakistan. The protest got out of control and ended with the death of four protestors of the University of Dhaka who were shot by the police on 21st February, 1952. The students’ deaths during the fight for their mother language are now remembered as The International Mother Language Day (IMLD).

Each year on Feb 21, UNESCO holds the event to draw attention to the disappearance of the world’s languages: dozens of them are disappearing each year. What happens when a language dies out? Something huge is lost -- not just sounds and marks but the way that people make sense of the world and communicate with each other. And it is through language that we have culture and tradition. Kill a language and all this is killed too.

Through IMLD, more people are becoming more aware of the destruction of linguistic (语言的) diversity in modern times and trying to stop it. The Myaamia Project is a kind of effort. This is an attempt to revive (复兴) the language spoken by the Miami and Illinois tribes (部落) of the US. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which formally died out in the 1960s.

This is why we should remember the wise words of Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

5．What can we know from the first paragraph?

A．Bengal had the biggest population in Pakistan.

B．The conflict resulted from linguistic controversy.

C．The Bengali were the majority who spoke Urdu.

D．The police shot four students to end the protest.

6．What message does Paragraph 2 mean to convey?

A．Dozens of languages die out every February.

B．The world is known merely through languages.

C．Language helps to preserve and promote culture.

D．Much attention has been paid to language protection.

7．What does the Myaamia Project aim to do?

A．Keep linguistic diversity. B．Protect an American tribe.

C．Raise money to help the locals. D．Focus on native language learning.

8．Why does the author mention Mandela’s words?

A．To show his contribution to language protection.

B．To stress the difficulty in learning a dying language.

C．To reflect the possibility to preserve a local language.

D．To emphasize the importance of one’s mother tongue.

（2020·河南南阳中学高三月考）    Machines might one day replace human laborers in a number of professions, but surely they won’t ever replace human artists. Right?

Think again. Not even our artists will be safe from the inevitable machine takeover, if a new development in artificial intelligence(AI) by a team of researchers from Rutgers University and Facebook’s AI lab offers a clue of what’s to come. They have designed an AI capable of not only producing art, but actually inventing whole new aesthetic(美学的) styles similar to movements like impressionism or abstract expressionism. The idea, according to researcher Marian Mazzone, was to make art that is “novel, but not too novel”.

The model used in this project involves a generator network, which produces the images, and a discriminator network, which “judges” whether it’s art. Once the generator learns how to produce work that the distributor recognizes as art, it’s given an additional instruction: to produce art that doesn’t match any known aesthetic styles.

“You want to have something really creative and striking — but at the same time not to go too far and make something that isn’t aesthetically pleasing,” explained Ahmed Elgammal.

The art that was generated by the system was then presented to human judges alongside human-produced art without showing which was which. To the researchers’ surprise, the machine-made art scored slightly higher overall than the human-produced art.

Of course, machines can’t yet replace the meaning conveyed in works by human artists, but this project shows that artist skill sets certainly seem reproducible by machines.

What will it take for machines to produce content with meaning? That might be the last AI frontier. Human artists can at least hang their hats in that field for now.

“Imagine having people over for a dinner party and they ask, ‘Who is that by?’ And you say, ‘Well, it’s a machine actually.’ That would be an interesting conversation starter,” said Kevin Walker.

12．What is implied in the second paragraph?

A．Artists won’t be replaced by AI. B．AI can produce new styles of art.

C．AI is totally at a loss about impressionism. D．AI fails to reflect abstract expressionism.

13．What did Marian find in his study?

A．AI can please human judges with its art. B．AI can combine content with meaning.

C．AI can make art aesthetically unpleasant. D．AI can create high quality arts.

14．What does the underlined phrase “hang their hats” mean?

A．Discover. B．Hold. C．Struggle. D．Appear.

15．What Kevin said in the last paragraph tells us that         .

A．she uses machines to cook for a party B．she likes to join in a dinner party

C．she expects the arrival of AI D．she cares about the starter of a chat

（2020·黑龙江哈尔滨三中高三月考）    If you’re a gamer who’s constantly glued to your phone, it could be time to ask for medical help.

On June 18, 2018, the World Health Organization（WHO）officially listed “gaming disorder” as a mental health condition. 16．

“Video gaming is like a non-financial kind of gambling （赌博）from a psychological point of view,” Mark Griffiths, a professor from Nottingham Trent University in the UK, told the Associated Press（AP）. “Gamblers use money as a way of keeping score, while gamers use points.”

17．“People need to understand this doesn’t mean every child who spends

hours in their room playing games is an addict, otherwise doctors are going to be flooded with requests for help,” Joan Harvey, a spokeswoman for the British Psychological Society, told AP.

18． For example, a 21-year-old Chinese woman surnamed Wu in Guangdong province went blind in one eye after playing the mobile game King of Glory for a whole day. “On days when I have no work, I usually get up at 6 am, eat breakfast and play until 4 pm,” she told the South China Morning Post.  “Then I’ll eat something, have a nap（小睡）and play until 1 am.”

Wu isn’t alone. According to a study published by China Youth Daily, about one in five young Chinese people play online video games for at least four to five hours per day. 19． In April, the Ministry of Education issued a notice asking Chinese schools and parents to prevent students from becoming addicted to the Internet and games.

Other countries have also taken action.  20． Meanwhile, in Japan, some mobile phones have a special mode for children that lets their parents control what games they can download and how long they can play.

A．This means it’s now on the same list as other mental illnesses.

B．Thankfully, measures have been taken to deal with the problem.

C．We often see people around us playing games on their mobile phones.

D．In South Korea, children are forbidden to play video games after midnight.

E.WHO’s main work is to improve the mental health of individuals and society.

F.But if you lose control over your gaming habits, you’ll face serious problems.

G.However, it doesn’t matter if you play your favorite game now and then.

（2020·上海市七宝中学高三月考）    Space exploration has always been the province of    21   ：The human imagination readily soars where human ingenuity (创造力）struggles to follow. A Voyage to the Moon, often cited as the first science fiction story, was written by Cyrano de Bergerac in 1649. Cyrano was dead and buried for a good three centuries    22   the first manned rockets started to fly.

In 1961, when President Kennedy declared that America would send a man to the moon by the    23   's end, those words, too, had a dreamlike quality. They resonated with optimism and ambition in much the same way as the most famous    24    speech of all, delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. two years later. By the end of the decade, both visions had yielded concrete results and   25   American society. And yet in many ways the two dreams ended up    26   each other. The fight for racial and economic equality is intensely pragmatic (讲求实用的）and immediate in its impact. The urge to explore space is just the opposite. It is figuratively and literally otherworldly in its    27   .

When the dust settled, the space dreamers lost out. There was no grand follow-up to the Apollo missions. The technologically compromised space shuttle program has just come to an end, with no    28   . The perpetual argument is that    29    are tight, that we have more pressing problems here on Earth. Amid the current concerns about the federal deficit, reaching toward the stars seems a dispensable luxury—   30    saving one-thousandth of a single year’s budget would solve our problems.

But human ingenuity struggles on. NASA is developing a series of robotic probes that will get the most bang from a buck. They will serve as modern Magellans,   31   out the solar system for whatever explorers follow, whether man or machine. On the flip side, companies like Virgin Galactic are plotting a bottom-up assault on the space dream by making it a reality to the public. Private spaceflight could lie within    32    of rich civilians in a few years. Another decade or two and it could go mainstream.

The space dreamers end up benefiting all of us—-not just because of the way they expand human knowledge, or because of the spin-off    33    they produce, but because the two types of dreams feed off each other. Both Martin Luther King and John Kennedy appealed to the idea that humans can    34   what were once considered inherent limitations. Today we face seeming challenges in energy, the environment, health care. Tomorrow we will transcend these as well, and the dreamers will deserve a lot of the credit. The more evidence we collect that our species is    35   greatness, the more we will actually achieve it.

The Voice in the Box

When I was quite young, my family had one of the first telephones in our neighborhood. I remember well the polished the wooden case fastened to the wall on the lower stair landing. But my first personal experience with this genie-in-the-receiver came one day while my mother was visiting a neighbor. Amusing myself at the tool bench, I hurt my finger with a hammer. The pain was terrible, but there didn’t seem to be much use crying, because there was no one home to offer sympathy. I walked around the house, and finally arriving at the stairway. The telephone! Quickly I ran for the footstool and dragged it to the landing. Climbing up, I unhooked the receiver and held it to my ear. “Information Please,” I said into the mouthpiece just above my head.

A click or two, and a small, clear voice spoke into my ear, “Information.”

“I hurt my finger…” I cried into the phone. The tears came readily enough, now that I had an audience.

“Isn’t your mother home?” came the question.

“Nobody’s home but me.” I sobbed.

“Are you bleeding?”

“No,” I replied. “I hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts.”

“Can you open your icebox?” she asked. I said I could. “Then break off a little piece of ice and hold it on your finger. That will stop the hurt. Be careful when you use the icepick(冰锥),” she said, “And don’t cry. You’ll be all right.”

After that, I called Information Please for everything. I asked her for help with my geography and she told me where Philadelphia was, and the Orinoco, the romantic river that I was going to explore when I grew up. She helped me with my arithmetic, and she told me that my pet chipmunk----I had caught him in the park just the day before----would eat fruit and nuts.
