山东省枣庄市2020届高三上学期英语期末考试试卷

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Maybe you live in places where English is not the main language. When you speak, your speech might be slower than you would like. This is because your mind is still translating things from your first language into English,which can also sound unnatural. It is not very difficult, but it does take conscious effort and practice.

    Think in single words

    Charles Thomas has taught English to Union members, children and teenagers for over 10 years. He tells his students to name the things that they see around them, wherever they are.

    

    Think in sentences

    For example, if you are sitting in a park, you can tell yourself things like, "It's such a beautiful day" and "People are playing sports with their friends."

Think in conversation

    This is a great way to practice what you might say in a real conversation. For example, let's say the imaginary person asks you a question like, "What did you think of the talk show last night?" Imagine the conversation and practice it in your head. You can do this out loud or in silence.

    

    "When you're doing it every day, over and over again, little by little, that's the key. Because when you make things a habit, it just pops up into your mind without thinking and then, before you know it, really, you're thinking in English, "Thomas says.

A. Practice it daily.

B. How would you answer?

C. Speak English with a native speaker.

D. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.

E. Start with nouns and then add in verbs, he suggests.

F. Once this becomes easy, move on to more difficult sentences.

G. The good news is that thinking in English will bring you closer to fluency!

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为余选项。

    Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

    At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green – eyed monster” and the UK is its home.

    Scientists at War wich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} . But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world's fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.

    “It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It's people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.

A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.

B. The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.

C. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”

D. It is not true that British people are born jealous of others' success.

E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.

F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.

G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.

    We've probably all met someone who likes to show off how many places he or she has been to. It's annoying but it's true that to some people, traveling is all about the number of destinations one has set foot on. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Last year's travel trend was "experiential travel". This is where tourists look for ways to get to know local culture and communicate with local people so they feel less like outsiders but more like locals. So what about now? Can thoughtful tourists get even more out of their traveling experience?

    Transformative travel

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}It usually goes through three stages—you go to a place that has a very different background than where you come from, you learn wisdom from the new culture and the people you meet, and finally you return home and apply the knowledge to your own life and the lives of those around you. This last stage is how the transformation is completed and what separates transformative travel from experiential travel.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Eco-friendly and sustainable(可持续的) travel will be one of this year's top trends. One way to plan a low-impact trip is to travel a shorter distance, which can reduce your carbon footprint. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Another way to involve sustainability in your travel plans is to choose a destination that will benefit the most from your trip. For example, places like Nepal will enjoy promotion of its local economy from the money it will make through tourism

    Disappearing destinations.

    Destinations at risk of disappearing are also welcoming an increasing number of tourists.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Another top destination is the Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁) in Australia. Due to pollution and global warming, it's predicted that the reef will be seriously damage in just a few decades. Travelers are longing to see the coral(珊瑚) before it's gone or completely changed.

A. Go green

B. Self-service travel

C. It is much like“experiential travel”, but takes it a step further.

D. But fortunately, the old "been there, seen that" mode is changing.

E. Nowadays people have many kinds of ways to get to their destinations.

F. The Antarctic has become a popular destination since it's under threat of climate change.

G. One trans-Pacific flight equals a year's worth of driving, so consider planning a closer adventure.

    Last summer over 12,000 fans were at Wembley Arena in London, shouting and cheering. Thousands more were watching online. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} It was esports, or competitive computer gaming.

    Millions of people in the UK play computer games for fun. Some of them have become professional gamers, playing games as their full-time job. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} They practice for ten or more hours a day, five or six days a week. They do exercises like typing something and trying to type it faster and faster. They also study videos of other players and plan ways to beat them.

    But others say yes: esports are sports. Players do need some physical skills, especially hand-eye coordination, reflexes, accuracy and timing. If darts, snooker and shooting are classified as sports, then perhaps esports should be too.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}And they will be an official medal sport in the Asian Games starting from 2022. Next step: the Olympics?
