高中英语试题

“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.

This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery（悬疑小说）. One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.

But writing the end — that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that's unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.

That’s why this issue（期）of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.

This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be — that’s up to you and the story you’re telling — but it might provide what you need to get there.

（1）Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie?

A．	To discuss a novel.	B．	To submit a book report.
C．	To argue for a writer.	D．	To ask for a reading list.

（2）What did the author realize after seeing Gracie?

A．	Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B．	Readers are often carried away by character.
C．	Each type of literature has its unique end.
D．	A story which begins well will end well.

（3）What is expected of a good ending?

A．	It satisfies readers’ taste.	B．	It fits with the story development.
C．	It is usually positive.	D．	It is open for imagination.

（4）Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?

A．	To give examples of great novelists.	B．	To stress the theme of this issue.
C．	To encourage writing for the magazine.	D．	To recommend their new books.

The Saint Lukas train doesn’t accept passengers — it accepts only the sick. The Saint Lukas is one of five government-sponsored medical trains that travel to remote towns in central and eastern Russia. Each stop lasts an average of two days, and during that time the doctors and nurses on board provide rural（乡村）populations with basic medical care, X-ray scans and prescriptions.

“People started queuing to make an appointment early in the morning,” says Emile Ducke, a German photographer who traveled with the staff of the Saint Lukas for a two-week trip in November through the vast regions（区域）of Krasnoyarsk and Khakassia.

Russia’s public health care service has been in serious need of modernization. The government has struggled to come up with measures to address the problem, particularly in the poorer, rural areas east of the Volga River, including arranging doctor’s appointments by video chat and expanding financial aid programs to motivate doctors to practice medicine in remote parts of the country like Krasnoyarsk.

The annual arrival of the Saint Lukas is another attempt to improve the situation. For 10 months every year, the train stops at about eight stations over two weeks, before returning to the regional capital to refuel and restock（补给）. Then it starts all over again the next month. Most stations wait about a year between visits.

Doctors see up to 150 patients every day. The train’s equipment allows for basic checkups. “I was very impressed by the doctors and their assistants working and living in such little space but still staying focused and very concerned,” says Ducke. “They were the best chance for many rural people to get the treatment they want. ”

（1）How is the Saint Lukas different from other trains?

A．	It runs across countries.	B．	It reserves seats for the seniors.
C．	It functions as a hospital.	D．	It travels along a river.

（2）What can we infer from paragraph 3 about Krasnoyarsk?

A．	It is heavily populated.	B．	It offers training for doctors.
C．	It is a modern city.	D．	It needs medical aid.

（3）How long can the Saint Lukas work with one supply?

A．	About a year.	B．	About ten months.
C．	About two months.	D．	About two weeks.

（4）What is Ducke’s attitude toward the Saint Lukas’ services?

A．

Appreciative.

B．

Doubtful

C．

Ambiguous.

D．

Cautious.

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Animals can express their needs using a lot of ways. For instance, almost all animals have distinct vocals（声音） that they rely on to either ask for help, scare away any dangerous animals or look for shelter. But cats are special creatures who possess amazing vocalization skills. They are able to have entire conversations with humans using meows and you're able to interpret it. If a pet cat is hungry, it will keep meowing to attract attention and find food. However, when a cat is looking for affection, they tend to produce stretched and soft meows. Meowing starts as soon as a baby cat is brought to life and uses it to get the mother's attention and be fed.

Cats have many heightened senses, but their sense of smell is quite impressive. They use their noses to assess their environment and look out for any signs of danger. They will sniff out specific areas before they choose a place to relax. However, another way the cats are able to distinguish between situations is by looking for familiar smells. Your cat will likely smell your face and store the smell in its memory and use it to recognize you in the future. That's why most pet cats are able to tell immediately if their owners were around any other cats, which they don't usually like.

Dogs are known for their impressive fetching habit, but cats take this behavior up a notch. Many cats will find random objects outside and bring them to their owners. This is a very old habit that's been present in all kinds of predators（食肉动物）. Cats bring gifts for their owners to show they love you. These adorable little hunters are just doing something that it's been in their nature since the beginning of time. So just go along with it!

（1）What can be learned about cats' meowing from the first paragraph?

A．	It's a survival skill.	B．	It's taught by mother cats.
C．	It's hard to interpret.	D．	It's getting louder with age.

（2）How does a pet cat assess different situations?

A．	By listening for sounds.	B．	By touching familiar objects.
C．	By checking on smells.	D．	By communicating with other cats.

（3）Which best explains the phrase "take. . . up notch" in paragraph 3?

A．

Perform appropriately.

B．

Move faster.

C．

Act strangely.

D．

Do better.

（4）What is a suitable title for the text?

A．	Tips on Finding a Smart Cat	B．	Understanding Your Cat's Behavior
C．	Have Fun with Your Cat	D．	How to Keep Your Cat Healthy

When I was in middle school，my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest. I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil，so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play，where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did.

ㅤSo，why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail？His reply："Because I love your stories. If you're willing to apply yourself，I think you have a good shot at this." Encouraged by his words，I agreed to give it a try.

ㅤI chose Paul Revere's horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith （银匠） in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18，1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse's mouth. Not a brilliant idea，but funny；and unlikely to be anyone else's choice.

ㅤWhat did the horse think，as he sped through the night？Did he get tired？Have doubts？Did he want to quit？I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But，like Revere's horse，I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling，I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them.

ㅤWhen I handed in the essay to my teacher，he read it，laughed out loud，and said， "Great. Now，write it again." I wrote it again，and again and again. When I finally finished it，the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn't win，I wouldn't care.

（1）续写词数应为150左右；

Personal Forgiveness

ㅤTaking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step，but don't beat yourself up about them. To err （犯错）is human.（1）＿＿＿＿You can use the following writing exercise to help you do this.

ㅤIn a journal or on a piece of paper，put the heading "Personal strengths."（2）＿＿＿＿ Are you caring？Creative？Generous？A good listener？Fun to be around？They don't have to be world ﹣changing，just aspects of your personality that you're proud of.

ㅤAt the top of a second page，put the heading"Acts of kindness." On this one，list all the positive things you've done for others. It might be the time when you helped a friend with their homework，when you did the ironing without being asked，or when you baked cookies after the family had had a tiring day.（3）＿＿＿＿

ㅤYou could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list.（4）＿＿＿＿That way，you could exchange thoughts on what makes each of you special and the aspects of your personality that shine through. In fact，don't wait until you've made a mistake to try this—it's a great way to boost self﹣confidence at any time.

ㅤIt's something of a cliché（陈词滥调） that most people learn not from their successes but their mistakes.

The thing is，it's true.（5）＿＿＿＿We' re all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are a positive way to develop and grow.

A．	A little self﹣forgiveness also goes a long way.
B．	Now list all the characteristics you like about yourself.
C．	They might even like to have a go at doing the exercise.
D．	It's just as important to show yourself some forgiveness.
E．	It doesn't mean you have to ignore what's happened or forget it.
F．	Whatever it is，no matter how small it might seem，write it down.
G．	Whatever the mistake，remember it isn't a fixed aspect of your personality.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

On March 7，1907，the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the "wisdom of crowds" effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases，the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.

ㅤThis effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors，those errors aren't always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate，and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together，they cancel each other out，resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors，then their errors won't cancel each other out. In more technical terms，the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent. If for whatever reasons，people's errors become correlated or dependent，the accuracy of the estimate will go down.

ㅤBut a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist （转折） on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion，the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance，the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.

ㅤIn a follow﹣up study with 100 university students，the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates？Did they follow those least willing to change their minds？This happened some of the time，but it wasn't the dominant response. Most frequently，the groups reported that they "shared arguments and reasoned together." Somehow，these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain，the potential implications for group discussion and decision﹣making are enormous.

（1）What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	The methods of estimation.
B．	The underlying logic of the effect.
C．	The causes of people's errors.
D．	The design of Galton's experiment.

（2）Navajas' study found that the average accuracy could increase even if ＿＿＿＿

A．	the crowds were relatively small
B．	there were occasional underestimates
C．	individuals did not communicate
D．	estimates were not fully independent

（3）What did the follow﹣up study focus on？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	The size of the groups.
B．	The dominant members
C．	The discussion process.
D．	The individual estimates.

（4）What is the author's attitude toward Navajas' studies？＿＿＿＿

A．	Unclear.
B．	Dismissive.
C．	Doubtful.
D．	Approving.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism，including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works，and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it's right for you.

ㅤTo do so，I divided the book into two parts. In part one，I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism，starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people's digital lives increasingly intolerable，before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.

ㅤPart one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy：the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days，you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.

ㅤIn the final chapter of part one，I'll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so. I'll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1，600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You'll hear these participants' stories and learn what strategies worked well for them，and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.

ㅤThe second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters，I examine issues such as the importance of solitude and the necessity of cultivating high﹣quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices，which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that words for your particular circumstances.

（1）What is the book aimed at？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	Teaching critical thinking skills.
B．	Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.
C．	Solving philosophical problems.
D．	Promoting the use of a digital device.

（2）What does the underlined word"declutter"in paragraph 3 mean？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	Clear﹣up.
B．	Add﹣on.
C．	Check﹣in.
D．	Take﹣over.

（3）What is presented in the final chapter of part one？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	Theoretical models.
B．	Statistical methods.
C．	Practical examples.
D．	Historical analyses.

（4）What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two？＿＿＿＿

A．	Use them as needed.
B．	Recommend them to friends.
C．	Evaluate their effects.
D．	Identify the ideas behind them.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

When John Todd was a child，he loved to explore the woods around his house，observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream，for example，often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older，John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.

ㅤAfter studying agriculture，medicine，and fisheries in college，John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria（细菌）？Which kinds of fish can eat cancer﹣causing chemicals？With the right combination of animals and plants，he figured，maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco﹣machine.

ㅤThe task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge（污泥）.First，he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little，these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks，John added the sludge.

ㅤHe was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco﹣machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks，it had all been digested，and all that was left was pure water.

ㅤOver the years，John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse﹣like facility that treated sewage （污水）from 1，600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco﹣machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou，a city in southeast China.

ㅤ"Ecological design"is the name John gives to what he does. "Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor，"he says. "You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self﹣repair."

（1）What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	He was fond of traveling.
B．	He enjoyed being alone.
C．	He had an inquiring mind.
D．	He longed to be a doctor.

（2）Why did John put the sludge into the tanks？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	To feed the animals.
B．	To build an ecosystem.
C．	To protect the plants.
D．	To test the eco﹣machine.

（3）What is the author's purpose in mentioning Fuzhou？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	To review John's research plans.
B．	To show an application of John's idea.
C．	To compare John's different jobs.
D．	To erase doubts about John's invention.

（4）What is the basis for John's work？ ＿＿＿＿

A．	Nature can repair itself.
B．	Organisms need water to survive.
C．	Life on Earth is diverse.
D．	Most tiny creatures live in groups.

ㅤLast Friday my mom decided to color his hair.She studied with all the hair products at the drugstore.The color she choose came in a box which had a picture of a woman that hair color looked just perfect.Mom was sure same color would look great on her.She put the new color on her hair or sat still for 30 minutes，just as the directions saying.However，instead of the brownish red hair she had hoped for，she final got purple hair.She went right into the shower to washing it，but it was no use.At least one thing proved truth：the color wouldn't wash out.
