一、阅读理解。

A【河南省开封市2019届高三第三次模拟】

Eighteen years ago, Terry Grahl, was pregnant with her fourth child. “Money was very tight.” Terry recalls. So when her mom called to ask if she'd like to go shopping at the local fabric( 布料)store for the coming Christmas, she couldn't say no because she knew she badly needed some fabrics to make new clothes for her children. “1 remember walking around, gazing at all this beautiful fabric, wondering whether there is anything cheap that I could afford. And I could still get some money left to buy Christmas gifts for my family.”

Well, Terry’s mom must have known what Terry was thinking. Smiling kindly, she whispered to Terry, “You pick any fabrics you like. It’s your Christmas gift from me.” Terry’s eyes were filled with tears as the cart began to overflow with many fabrics, but not because Terry was planning on making herself a pretty dress or a pair of curtains for the kitchen. Rather, Terry’s mom's kindness had inspired some holiday gift ideas in Terry, and it didn’t take long for Terry to figure out what she was going to do with all that fabric.

“I was going to make my first quilt.” She explains. “Every night I would work on this queen-size quilt. With every stitch(一针), I thought about all that my mom had done for me over the course of my childhood, during which we were always battling homelessness, but Mom somehow managed to fill our lives with love and make everything okay.”

On Christmas day, five days after her baby girl was born, Terry handed her mom a gift box. Inside was the quilt she had sewn, from the fabric her mother had given her as a gift.

Forget losing weight or saving money—we suggest one simple task to add to your list of inspiring New Year’s decisions: read a book. Trust us, and your brain will thank you. Not only does reading increase the amount of daily pleasure in your life, but it could also delay dementia (痴呆) and even help you live longer.

But still, picking the perfect novel isn’t easy. Thankfully, Business Insider asked a Harvard professor to recommend the one book he thinks every student should read in 2019—and we suggest adding it to your list, too. (No time for all the books on your list? Here’s a shortcut: Read the endings to some of the world’s most famous books, instead.)

Steven Pinker, Professor of Psychology at Harvard, recommends The Internationalists by legal scholars Hathaway and Shapiro. The book makes a surprising claim that the Kellogg-Briand Paris Peace Pact (条约) of 1928, which declared war illegal, has caused a steady drop in war throughout history.

“But in their fascinating and evidence-rich book, they make a lifelike case,” Pinker said. “And like The Clash of Civilizations and The End of History, the book presents a sweeping vision (视野) of the international scene, making sense of many developments in the news and recent history.”

Other professors at Harvard recommended classics like Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, as well as Just Mercy by Stevenson, The Theory of Moral Sentiments by Adam Smith, and Robot-Proof by Joseph Aoun.

So, go ahead and give (at least) one of these books a read in 2019! And while you’re at it, you should add the following 20 books you really should have read by now to your list, too…

1. Why does the author say “Forget losing weight or saving money”?

A. Because losing weight or saving money is a harder task than reading.

B. Because reading much might cause you to pick up weight or spend more.

C. Because losing weight or saving money has nothing to do with reading books.

D. Because reading books is much more important than losing weight or saving money.

2. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “shortcut” in the 2nd paragraph?

A. A time-saving way to read books.

B. A lazy person’s way to read books.

C. A quick way to know about endings of books.

D. A wise way to deal with too many books to read.

3. What or who has reduced the number of wars throughout history?

A. The Paris Peace Pact. B. The Internationalists.

C. Hathaway and Shapiro. D. A wide vision of the international scene.

4. What may be written in the next or last paragraph of the passage?

A. More advice on reading books.

B. The main contents of the 20 books recommended.

C. The names of the 20 books recommended.

D. The brief introduction of the 20 books recommended.

Chinese researchers say they have come up with a simple way to find out a person’s biological age —how much the body has aged physically – through a urine (尿) test.

Their findings will help researchers conduct numbers of ageing studies and even predict a person’s risk of age-related diseases, according to a paper published in the journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.

Another paper by researchers at the Beijing Hospital and the West China Hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province, said on Tuesday that people aged at different rates due to changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.

Chronological age – which is based on one’s birth date —was an inaccurate measure of biological age so a more accurate method was needed, the team said.

Ageing is driven by the lifelong gradual accumulation of a broad variety of molecular (分子) faults in the body’s cells. The team said they had identified a matter —8-oxoGsn — that indicated increases in oxidative (氧化性) damage in urine as people’s bodies aged.

Cai Jianping, a co-author at the Beijing Hospital, said: “As we age, we suffer increasing oxidative damage and so the levels of oxidative matters increase in our body.” The team tested the levels of 8-oxoGsn in urine samples from 1,228 Chinese people aged two to 90 and concluded the marker helped accurately determine the stage of biological ageing in adults.

They had previously found that 8-oxoGsn levels also increased with age in the urine of animals such as mice.

The team has also developed a rapid analysis technique called ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography, which can process up to 10 urine samples an hour, according to the study.

1. Scientifically speaking, by what does a doctor judge the stage of a person getting old?

A. His condition. B. His biological age. C. His psychology. D. His chronological age.

2. What are the outer factors the speed of one’s ageing physically depend on?

A. One’s birth date.

B. The increases in oxidative damage in urine.

C. The changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.

D. The accumulation of various molecular faults in the body’s cells.

3. Which can take the place of the underlined word “marker” in the sixth paragraph?

A. 8-oxoGsn. B. Molecular faults.

C. Oxidative damage. D. Stage of biological ageing in adults.

4. What is the passage about?

A. Why people are ageing.

B. How to delay people’s ageing physically.

C. What determines the stage of people’s ageing physically.

D. A rapid method with which to judge how much people are aging physically.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。中国科学家发明一种新方法：通过检测尿液中的名叫“8-oxoGsn”的物质来确定“氧化损伤”量从而知道被检测者的衰老程度。

32. B【命题意图】细节理解题。

【解题思路】根据第一段中的“a person’s biological age —how much the body has aged physically”和第四段中的“Chronological age – which is based on one’s birth date — was an inaccurate measure of biological age so a more accurate method was needed”可知B项正确，因为医生是根据身体上衰老程度来确定人衰老达到了什么程度。

33. C【命题意图】细节理解题。

【解题思路】根据第三段中的 “people aged at different rates due to changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.”可知：影响人衰老的速度的外部因素是基因组成的变化和环境的变化。

It is important to protect yourself from harmful rays. But if you think a high-factor sunscreen keeps you safe from harmful rays, you may be wrong. Research in this week’s Nature shows that while factor 50 reduces the number of melanomas（黑瘤）and delays their occurrence, it can’t prevent them. Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers. You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair, fair skin, blue or green eyes, or sunburn easily, or if a close relative has had one. Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun. Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure.

There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas – the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer. A 2019 Australian study of 1,621 people found that people randomly selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed. A second study, comparing 1,167 people with melanomas to 1.101 who didn’t have the cancer, found that using sunscreen routinely, alongside other protection such as hats, long sleeves or staying in the shade, did give some protection. This study said other forms of sun protection – no sunscreen – seemed most beneficial. The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives, so it’s not entirely reliable. But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun.

Many people also don’t use sunscreen properly applying insufficient amounts, failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long. It is sunburn that is most worrying – recent research shows five episodes of sunburn in the teenage years increases the risk of all skin cancers.

The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates, as shown by Australian figures from their slip-slop-slap campaign. So if there is a heat wave this summer, it would be best for us, too, to slip on a shirt, use sunscreen and slap on a hat.

1. What’s people’s common expectation of high-factor sunscreen?

A. It will protect them from sunburn.

B. It will keep their skin smooth ad fair.

C. It will work for people of any skin color.

D. It will delay the occurrence of skin cancer.

2. What can we learn from the second paragraph?

A. Sunscreen can prevent all kinds of skin cancers.

B. The studies are based on direct observation of the subjects.

C. The studies may help people select the most effective sunscreen.

D. Daily application of sunscreen helps reduce the incidence of melanomas.

3. What does the author suggest in order to reduce melanoma rates?

A. Staying in the shade whenever possible. B. Using covering up instead of sunscreen.

C. Using both covering up and sunscreen. D. Applying the right amount of sunscreen.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A. No Way to Stop Harmful Rays!

B. Does Sunscreen Prevent Skin Cancer?

C. Did You Use Sunscreen In the Right Way?

D. Skin Cancer-The Biggest Threat to Human Beings!

【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B

【解析】这篇文章主要讲了单纯的使用防晒霜并不能非常有效地阻止皮肤癌的发生，为了减少黑色素瘤的比率，作者建议既要使用衣帽遮盖，也要使用防晒霜。

8. 细节理解题。由第一自然段But if you think a high-factor sunscreen keeps you safe from harmful rays, you may be wrong.可知人们希望防晒霜能够保护他们免于被晒伤，选A。

How to Be Productive in a Challenging Environment

A lot of organizations deal with challenges like maintaining productivity and quality of work. 36 In this article, we’ll share with you a few essential tips on staying focused at work.

Prepare a to-do list.

Half the battle is won once you prioritize (优先处理) your tasks. Make a list of what needs to be done. Plan your day through these lists and set realistic deadlines to accomplish each one of them. 37

Schedule your work.

Don’t overstretch yourself with your work. 38 To avoid burnouts, take a walk to renew your brain, allowing it to concentrate better. Though breaks arc essential for a healthy workday, you must learn to take them with a pinch of salt. Frequent breaks can be addictive and can affect your work.

Nowadays, being online on various social media platforms is a trend. Several notifications (通知) pop up every now and then, commanding your attention. If you are constantly attending to such notifications, how are you supposed to do meaningful work? While working on an important project, put your phone on silent or switch it off. If you really want to stay updated with your social media accounts, you can set specialized time slots to check your phone.

Cut outside noise.

Until you do away with noise, you won’t be able to focus. Limiting auditory distractions is crucial in increasing attention span. You can use noise-canceling headphones for that. 40 In case that doesn’t solve the problem, choose remote work for a day or two to regain your lost focus.

Keep on practicing these positive habits and you’ll surely see a noticeable improvement in your productivity level at work.

A. Avoid distractions.

B. Take regular exercise.

C. Rather, split your work into parts and sub-parts.

D. Changing your working environment may have unexpected benefits.

E. When you start prioritizing, you won’t just be focused but efficient, too.

F. If you still can’t concentrate, move to a quieter place, such as a conference room.

G. Managers are pressed to motivate their team members while boosting their productivity.

Last summer, my parents sold our minivan and bought a Dodge Dart. They thought it was “necessary” to 41 a smaller vehicle.

This decision affected me greatly because the new car had a manual transmission(手动变速) 42 I only knew how to drive automatic .

But this summer was supposed to be 43 , seeing as it was my first summer with my G2 driver’s 44 . In Ontario, having a G2 means you are able to drive without the supervision监督of a ( an) 45 .

After the long hours I’d spent learning to drive the car, it felt even 46 to drive it around on my own. I felt a new-found sense of maturity and 47 that I really enjoyed. I would drive everywhere, 48 when I probably didn’t need to.

So, 49 , when my mom asked me to 50 some groceries from the local store I decided to 51 instead of walk. While turning into the open spot in the store’s parking lot , I somehow scratched the car beside me. When I got out to 52 the damage, a bystander ran up warning me to contact the owner of the car I had scratched, or she would tell her husband, who was “a cop.”

Shocked and at a loss for words, I managed to find a piece of paper to write my 53 number on and put it on the 54 car’s window.

I was really 55 when I got home, because not only had I managed to 56 our own new car, I’d also damaged another person’s car.

When the owner called me, she was very aggressive and 57 . Though I hadn’t hit her car on purpose, I finally said it would probably be better if she 58 back and talked to my parents. When it was all settled, the total 59 were around $2,000.
