山东省新目标版2019届中考英语模拟试卷（七）

阅读下列短文，从每题A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this, "I'm afraid it'll have to be someplace cheap, as I have very little money." The other person may say, "OK, I'll meet you at McDonald's."

This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say, "Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Smith's," or "I want you to try the Chinese dumplings there. They're great." This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn't pay for the meal. You may just say, "Thank you. That would be very nice."

American customs (1) about who pays for dates (2) are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university (3) girl or a woman in business world will usually pay her way during the day. If a man asks her for a dance outside the working hours, it means "Come, as my guest (4)." So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning.

A、how to eat out B、where to eat out C、what to eat out D、who pays for the meal

（2）、If you have little money,________.

It's a goal for millions and millions of families every year to keep the Christmas spending within a certain amount of money, but you can still afford the gifts because your loved ones will enjoy them. This concern (忧虑) is becoming greater and greater theses days. Even so, there are several things that you can do to help.
Hit the sales. No one wants to get up at four o'clock in the morning and fight to get a good deal (交易) on Black Friday ( the first Friday at Christmas time). It's surely very difficult to pick up the courage and get out there in the cold for a good deal. But sometimes it can be well worth. Many retailers (零售商) offer specials all through the day. Some even offer online Black Friday specials, so we may still be able to get a great deal on Black Friday.
Read advertisements regularly. Once the Christmas shopping season is coming, retailers will be hungry for business. They will try their best to get us into the store. Please read the weekly advertisements of sales among the major retailers from time to time. We may be lucky enough to find different prices for the same thing in different shops.
Shop online. Some of us don't like running from store to store to get the best price on the perfect gift. Some of us don't like to go out in the cold at all, and then, we can do online shopping.
The world of online shopping makes it possible for us to visit all the major retailers and some specialty stores on the Internet. We can find exactly what we are looking for at the best possible price without even having to leave the house. With traditional Christmas shopping, it will always take us a long time to wait if we want to get the perfect gift.

   Car accidents happen everywhere every day and are the main cause of injury in the United States. In order to control the increasing（增长） accidents, many states have passed tough laws. Also, car manufacturers（制造商） have been trying to make safer cars to save lives.
      However, as there are more and more cars and drivers on the road, these safety measure （安全措施）are not enough to stop the increasing car accidents. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration （管理部门）reports that a car accident happens every 10 seconds in the United States.
      Car accidents may be caused by different reasons. Some accidents are caused by driver's tiredness and illness or drunk driving. Some may be caused by speeding or running a red light. When this happens, by the time the driver realizes what has happened, it is usually too late. As for ages, young drivers usually have enough experience while elderly drivers of react slowly. Mechanical defects （机械毛病）such as a broken brake（刹车） are another cause of car accidents. Poor road and weather conditions can also be a cause.
     Talking about different causes of car accidents can help us know what precautions（预防措施） to take beforehand. We should tell our friends or family members not to drive in poor health or after drinking wine. We should tell teenager drivers to be careful with road and weather conditions and let elderly friends understand their driving limitation(局限性)。Besides, we should have our car checked regularly（规律地）. The most important thing for us to remember, however, is that we should always follow the traffic rules.

Dogs are good friends of humans. Some dog lovers want to take their pets along with them wherever they go. However, many malls, bars and restaurants don't allow dogs inside. But in good news for dog owners, the world's first bus tour for dogs appeared on the streets of London last month.

The tour is free. It takes owners and their dogs to some of London's best parks and hottest dog-walking spots(地点). For example, the buses stop at Hyde Park and Green Park. The tour guides on the buses explain the history of dogs in London and about the many corgis(柯基犬) owned by Queen Elizabeth II. They also give the owners a map of dog-friendly bars and restaurants in the city.

Today's teens have grown up online. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} They study online. And surely they get their news online. But because they are so comfortable with the Internet, they seldom question news stories online.

Now William Colglazier, a history teacher at a high school in America, is teaching his students how to think critically (批判性地) about online information and recognize a false news story.

His idea came from a study on people's online reasoning (推理) at Stanford University. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Most middle school students in the study could not tell the difference between an advertisement and a news story, and high school and college students fully trusted the websites ending in ".org".

The good news is that, according to Colglazier, once teens realize they've been cheated, they have a strong will to tell the truth from lies. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Some of the advice that Colglazier offers his students includes moving off the site to find more information about the site, the writer's motivations (动机) and the organization behind the news story.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}He hopes more kids would think critically when they read news online. "{#blank#}5{#/blank#}" he said. "If people can't tell real news from fake news, the results can be frightening."

A. They make friends online.

B. The Internet is both beautiful and ugly.

C. As students, we should recognize false news.

D. Colglazier shared some of his courses with other teens in Teen Vogue.

E. They need some advice on how to find answers and how to recognize.

F. The study found that young people have poor ability to tell truth from lies.

G. The study found students have poor ability to reason about the information on the Internet.

阅读理解阅读下列材料，从下面每题的A、B 、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。

Jokes made by AI lack(缺乏)creative thinking. It seems you can ask artificial intelligence (AI)programs anything, and they'll give you an answer. So, can they tell jokes?This question was raised by a UK comedian(喜剧演员)Karen Hobbs in one of her shows in June. Instead of the usual jokes she created, Hobbs told jokes written by ChatGPT.

When Hobbs asked ChatGPT for a joke, it gave one about a man joking about getting bored with his shopping-obsessed(痴迷于购物的)girlfriend. Even when she asked to tell it from a woman's perspective(视角), it was still a shopping-obsessed girlfriend but told in the first person

It's no surprise that many jokes by AI come from a man's perspective, as men are much more common in comedy. The BBC said that AI storytelling can only create stories based on what is already there

A good joke in real life can always change based on the audience's reaction(反应). This is a skill that often leads comedians to improvise(v. 即兴创作). That's something that AI can't do for now.

For example, in improvise(n. 即兴创作), comedians don't make preparations. They depend only on their natural reaction to the audience.

However, that could change. Research is being done to give Al a greater understanding of the world around it, which makes the future of AI jokes still uncertain.
