高三模拟考试英语试题答案及解析 2013.03 第一部分听力 1—5 CBACA 6—10 ABCBB 11—15 AACBA 16—20 BCCAC 第二部分英语知识运用第一节语法和词汇知识 21. A 在过去三十年中，农业发生了显著的进步。两者均无特指的含义。第一空：不定冠词a，第二空：零冠词。 22. B 为了应对物价（上涨）问题，“我父亲”想退休后（beyond超过退休年龄）继续工作。 23. D when是关系副词，引导非限定性定语从句。明天是公休日，孩子应该（趁此机会）接近自然。 24. C 短语辨析题。预算较低的《泰囧》是不完美的，但总的来说（all in all）还是可看的。其余各项逻辑意义均不符合。 25. C 我们很少在周五开会，除非有重要事情讨论。unless引导条件状语从句。 26. B 时态考查题。他没来的原因是“正在准备考试”。 27. D 考查非谓语动词。making作状语，相当于which makes….。 28. A 名词辨析题。concern意为“关注的事情”。 29. C 时态考查题。didn’t think意为“本来没有料到”。 30. B 考查形容词辨义。大家都对工程师辞职的原因感到“好奇”。 31. B 表语从句，由句意可得，“我对假期的作用最看重的就是怎样来放松自己”。 32. A 动词短语辨析。come across意为“（偶然）遇到，碰到”。 33. D 代词考查题。rules为复数，故用those代替。

34. C 动词辨义题。杰克逊拒绝领奖，是因为他觉得自己不配（deserve）得到这个荣誉。 35. B 交际用语。How come意为“怎么回事？（怎么会这样呢？）”。第二节完形填空文章叙述了一个海滨小酒馆内发生的故事。水手失手打碎女侍者的茶壶，污染墙壁，艺术家现身救场，化腐朽为神奇。 36. D 根据就餐地点和顾客们谈话的内容可以确定，应该是在海上劳作了一天。 37. B 根据情景推断，服务员应该是从餐桌旁经过。past是介词。 38. C 说话者当时挥舞着手，通过手势描述鱼的大小。 39. A 此时的茶壶经过碰撞以后已经脱手，因此是crashing（摔向……）。 40. B 由情景推断，茶渍在墙上留下的应该是不规则的污点，因此是irregular。 41. A 前面已经提到了whitewashed wall，与污点形成很大反差，一般的解决办法应该是重新刷墙以便恢复原貌，即repainted。 42. C 在大家都为此感到束手无策的时候，传来这样的声音，当然引起大家注意，“眼光” 一齐转向说话的陌生人（不在同一桌子上用餐）。 43. A 这里的四个选项，除了picture，其余都已经出现了。经过对比可见，stranger要处理的，就是墙上这个污点。 44. C 假如我的工作随你的意（approval意为“同意”），用meets与之搭配。选取该项，应受到meet one’s needs或者meet one’s demands等短语的启发。 45. D 考虑当时情境，应该是从饭桌上站起来，拿起（自己常用的）工具箱走向墙边。 46. B 根据其职业特点和后来所做的事情（draw）推断，brushes应该是必不可少的用具。 47. C 很显然，画家一动手，“不久”图画就出现了。 48. D 污点是“tea（茶水）”留下的。 49. B 画家的职业习惯，作完画以后要签名。后面出现的signature也是一个提示信息。 50. A 他在饭店用完餐，付的肯定是饭费。其余选项不符合逻辑，也不符合当时的事实。 51. C 酒店老板听说过这位名画家，因此感到惊讶。

2018届高三英语最后一课(20200223164012)

同学们，大家好！这份考前辅导材料先从一则故事入手，让我们先来走进它： 1968年，在墨西哥奥运会的百米赛道上，美国选手吉?海因斯撞线后，转过身子看运动场上的记分牌。当指示灯打出9.95秒的字样后，海因斯摊开双手自言自语地说了一句话。这一情景通过电视网络，全世界至少有好几亿人看到，可是由于当时他身边没有话筒，因此海因斯到底说了句什么话，谁都不知道。但人们清楚地知道这是人类历史上首次有人在百米赛道上突破10秒大关。 1984年，洛杉矶奥运会前夕，一位叫戴维?帕尔的记者在办公室回放墨西哥奥运会的资料片，当再次看到海因斯回头、摊手、自言自语的镜头时，他想他一定说了一句不同凡响的话。但这一新闻点，竟被当时400多名在现场的记者给漏掉了，这实在是个天大的遗憾。于是他决定去采访海因斯，问他当时到底咕哝了句什么话。当被问起16年前的事时，海因斯想了想笑着说：“当时难道没人听见吗？我说，上帝啊，那扇门原来是虚掩着的！” 谜底揭开之后，戴维?帕尔接着对海因斯进行了采访。针对那句话，海因斯说：“自美国运动员欧文斯于1936年5月25日在柏林奥运会上创下10.03秒的百米赛世界纪录之后，以詹姆斯?格拉森医生为代表团的医学界断言，人类的肌肉纤维所承载的运动极限不会超过每秒10米，的确，这一纪录保持了32年，这一说法在田径场上非常流行，我也以为这是真的，但是，我想我的最高水平该跑出10.01秒的成绩。于是，每天我以自己最快的速度跑50公里。因为我知道，百米冠军不是在百米赛道上练出来的。当我在墨西哥奥运会上看到自己 9.95秒的纪录之后，我惊呆了，原来10秒这个门不是紧锁着的，它虚掩着，就像终点那根横着的绳子。” “百米冠军不是在百米赛道上练出来的。”，“每天我以自己最快的速度跑50公里。”同学们，就是这每天的坚持成就了海因斯在最后的赛道上突破了自己的“10秒大关”，推开了虚掩着的成功之门，成就了自己，创造了历史。高考不也如此？看似枯燥、单调、甚至令人心烦的一份一份小练、一题一题讲解、一遍一遍重复，回想起来不正是铺就了我们通向虚掩着的那扇门吗？越是接近终点，越要屏气凝神、步履坚定、成竹在胸。因为我们知道，翻过了这份“考前辅导材料”，“2018年高考卷”的尊容就在那扇虚掩着的门背后。去吧，去轻轻地推开它！高三英语组全体老师预祝莘莘学子梦想成真！ 2018届高考英语考前辅导应试总方法：“一看二序三速四查”。一看：充分利用考前５分钟，认真阅卷，同时调节紧张的心理。阅卷时要注意，答题要求、题量、总页码及正反面的试题。不要迫不急待答题。“磨刀不误砍柴工”。二序：遵循先易后难的原则，不要违反规律。三速：在规定的120分钟内完成全部试题需要一定的速度。以下为各项题目建议时间分配：（学生可根据自己的实际作适当调整）听力单项、完形阅读理解任务型书面表达涂卡、整理 20分钟25分钟35分钟13分钟25分钟2分钟（建议做好一大题就涂好一大题）四查：在完成全部试题后要认真检查： 1. 试题是否全部完成（包括正、反面）。不要轻易改答案（尤其是阅读理解），除非恍然大悟。 2. 答题卡是否全部涂规范、正确，考号、姓名、科目等是否正确无误。 3. 对漏做、疑难的题目进行强攻。

It includes airfare ($225), hotel ($170), dining out ($116) and dressing up ($95) and the gift. If you have weddings to attend this year, here are some tips for you to avoid breaking the bank. 1. Book flights in advance The moment you decide to attend a wedding is the time to check flight prices at the best time. Plane fares are higher in the summer, especially in July and August. Booking in advance will save you money, as will watch for sales on lower-cost carriers like JetBlue and Frontier. You can check Google Flights for a calendar of prices showing the cheapest days to fly from apps like Hopper to get real-time alerts when a fare is at its lowest price point. 2. Don't blow your budget on the gift If you've got the money, an expensive gift is lovely. But there's no need to take out loans to prove your love for the happy couple. Skip an expensive necklace by giving (an appropriate amount of) cash instead. To save on the gift, consider making one: A photo album or scrapbook of memories with the bride and groom shows how much you care. You could also share the gift with other guest(s) or even make gifts with DIY ideas by yourself to save money. 3. Use old dresses and suits You don't always have to be on a new dress for a wedding. While men have the option of repeating their suits, women are more likely to spend money on new clothes for the special occasion. But before you take out your wallet, consider reinventing something already in your
