1、2021屆高三下學期2月份模擬考試英語試題卷第卷第二部分:閱讀理解(共兩節(jié),滿分35分) 第一節(jié):(共10個小題;每小題2.5分,滿分25分) 閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。AWhen it comes to judgment of their bodies, women cant win. People often make “fat jokes”, but fat-shaming is no laughing matter; neither is fit-shaming. I spoke to two women who were
2、 shamed for being fat, and then, after losing weight, shamed for being fit. Sarah Moore is a 29-year-old mother of three from Indiana, US. She became a personal trainer after losing more than 45 kg. She remembers the fat-shaming she bore before her weight loss. When waiting to get on a roller coaste
3、r once, people behind her were complaining about the wait, and the attendant (服務人員) told them, “Dont worry. Shes not going to fit on here, and youll be next.” But after losing weight, Moore said people commented on her body even more. “Now I get comments like, Are you sure you can eat that? because
4、theyre worried Ill regain the weight,” she said.How does it make her feel? “Fat-shaming made me feel sad and helpless, and fit-shaming makes me angry,” she said. Changes in body weight can also influence relationships. It can upset the balance because others can get jealous. People who lose weight c
5、an experience personality changes, such as an increase in confidence, which also influences relationships. Fit-shaming has been harder to handle for Andrea Sereda, a 38-year-old social worker in Canada. She said judgment of her body is something shes faced for years. Sereda said that when she was 9,
6、 her grandfather told her at a birthday party, “I dont think you should eat cake,” and made comments about how many calories each bite contained as she ate it. She also experienced similar things in college. The judgment of Seredas body increased after she lost 57 kg. “Its worse with people who knew
7、 me from before,” Sereda said. “People constantly say, Youre so skinny now youre going to disappear.” It was mostly friends making such comments. Closer friends seemed to compare their own bodies negatively to Seredas new physique (體型). “I was afraid of going out and having to field all these commen
8、ts,” Sereda said. “I had to learn how to handle it.” Let us try to understand that just because someone has lost weight, it doesnt make them fair game for commentary on their new shape. Everyone deserves to live free of being body shamed, regardless of how they look.21. Sarah Moore is shamed for bei
9、ng fit after losing weight mainly because _.A. people still judge her new body shapeB. she lost too much weight after her dietC. her personality changed for the betterD. people are all jealous of her new look22. The example of Andrea Sereda is used to _.A. explain what pushes women to lose weightB.
10、show the negative effects of fit shamingC. suggest what can be done to handle fat shamingD. show the difficulties overweight women face23. What would be a proper way to treat those who have lost weight?A. To appreciate their new body shape.B. To stop commenting on their physique.C. To encourage them
11、 to maintain their shape.D. To remind them to be careful with their diet.BIm Jeff Logan, president of Logan Luxury Theaters Corporation. Im very sorry to tell you many cinemas are at risk of closing permanently(永久). Thats something we would hate to see happen.Watching the newest box office movie and
12、 eating a big bucket of popcorn is an experience that many of us have enjoyed for a very long time. We all have fond memories of going to a theater of our first dates or the first movie we saw with our children. A movie theater is so important to the fabric of the local community. Its a place where
13、we all gather, no matter what our interests, and no matter what ages, young and old, rich and poor.But how much longer will classic theaters remain open? Just like other industries, movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic(流行?。゛nd are going dark. The entire industry is being controlled by t
14、he pandemic, because the studios dont want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open. As we all know, the theaters cant do well and cant get back to full 7-day a week at full speed operation without new movies to play.Recently, the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema in Mitchell reopened for
15、the weekends. However, like many theaters, it is only operating at about 10 percent capacity. Since opening, several new safety measures have been put in place. Block off every other row. People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group. Staff spray the theater with disinfectant
16、(消毒劑)after every show. And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.Even so, some people still arent comfortable going to a movie theater yet. I fully understand that. Anyhow, Ijust hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters, like taking part in a new national propos
17、al called “Save Your Cinema.”What does the underlined word fabric in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Typical feature.B. Basic structure. C. Public support.D. Common vision.Why are the film studios unwilling to release the new movies? A. Cinemas dont operate normally.B. New movies arent welcomed. C. People
18、dont like going to cinema.D. Many cinemas go out of business.What can we infer about the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema after its reopening? A. It makes a lot of money.B. It does well in disease prevention. C. It receives a large audience every day.D. It offers more enjoyable experience.What is the purpose o
19、f this text? A. To share the good old days.B. To explain a social problem. C. To ask for peoples help.D. To recommend a theater.CTo move visual technology into the future, sometimes it helps to make a little noise. Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating 3-D images, create a sense of t
20、ouch and even supply a soundtrack.Since the 1940s, scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation(聲懸浮), the use of soundwave vibrations to trap tiny things in midair. The technology has gained greater capabilities in the past decade. Some researchers believe this improvement could lea
21、d to applications such as contributing to novel 3-D printing methods, or creating displays that would be visible from any angle without requiring a screen.Other researchers have also worked on visual displays that use acoustic levitation. In addition to visuals, the system can also produce audible n
22、oise to give the display a soundtrack. And the ultrasound speakers can also concentrate vibrations in one spot so that a finger might feel a sense pushing backa little like the object shown by the floating image is really there. Soundwaves create a 3-D display!Display without a screen is remarkably
23、useful. It means that everybody in the room can see the imageany angle, locationand thats extremely helpful. As a communications system, such a display might one day allow users to chat with a 3-D projection(投影) of a person who can turn his or her head to follow as they move around a room.The displa
24、y will require a lot more work before you can install it in your living room, however. So far, this has been done in the research laboratory. We need to push it a little bit harder. We need to do more analysis to see if it would make sense to create a real display that people would have at home. The
25、 current system can only show simple graphics, such as a smiley face or figure eight, in real time.Still, we are optimistic about the potential for this type of technology. If the system had only one speaker-covered surface instead of two, it could generate images that are bigger than the device its
26、elf. We cant make a TV image thats bigger than the TV even a projector has to have a projection screen thats bigger than the image itself. But with a volumetric(容積的) display, a small, portable device might produce a much larger picture. We can imagine, in the future, having volumetric displays in wa
27、tches, for example, that create large images that just project out of your watch.From the first two paragraphs soundwave vibrations can be used to _. A. catch very small objects in midairB. develop 3-D printers capabilities C. replace a creative display screenD. compose soundtracks by making no nois
28、eWhat do we know about display without a screen? A. It has resulted in visual technology.B. It is possible to see the image from any direction. C. It is already ripe to create a real one at home.D. It has yet to be tested in the research laboratory.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A.
29、Outlooks for the new technology.B. Situations of the modern technology. C. Praise for the cutting-edge technology.D. Room for the technical improvement.What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Hearing Is SeeingSound Waves Create a 3-D Display B. Seeing is Believing3-D Printing Methods Arrive
30、 C. Advancing Sense of Touch3-D Images Float in the Air D. Promoting TV TechnologyChat with 3-D ProjectionsDOne morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible insect. He lay on his armor-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he c
31、ould see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.“Whats happened to me?” h
32、e thought. It wasnt a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the tableSamsa was a travelling salesmanand above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illus
33、trated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur scarf who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff(暖手筒)that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be
34、heard hitting thewindow, which made him feel quite sad. “How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense,” he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldnt get into that position. However hard
35、he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldnt have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before.He thought, “What a heavy
36、 career it is that Ive chosen! Travelling day in and day out. Doing business like this takes much more effort than doing your own business at home, and on top of that theres the curse of travelling, worries about making train connections, bad and irregular food, contact with different people all the
37、 time so that you can never get to know anyone or become friendly with them.” He felt a slight itch up on his belly; pushed himself slowly up on his back towards the headboard so that he could lift his head better; found where the itch was, and saw that it was covered with lots of little white spots
38、 which he didnt know what to make of; and when he tried to feel the place with one of his legs he drew it quickly back because as soon as he touched it he was overcome by a cold tremble.He slid back into his former position. “Getting up early all the time,” he thought, “it makes you stupid. Youve go
39、t to get enough sleep. Other travelling salesmen live a life of luxury. For instance, whenever I go back to the guest house during the morning to copy out the contract, these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts. I ought to just try that with my boss; Id get kicked out on
40、 the spot. But who knows, maybe that would be the best thing for me. If I didnt have my parents to think about Id have given in my notice a long time ago, Id have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think, tell him everything I would, let him know just what I feel. Hed fall right off his de
41、sk! And its a funny sort of business to be sitting up there at your desk, talking down at your inferiors from up there, especially when you have to go right up close because the boss is hard of hearing. Well, theres still some hope; once Ive got the money together to pay off my parents debt to himan
42、other five or six years I supposethats definitely what Ill do. Thats when Ill make the big change. First of all though, Ive got to get up, my train leaves at five.”According to the passage, Gregor initially believes his transformation is a . A. curseB. diseaseC. nightmareD. fraudThe author most like
43、ly includes a description of Gregors itch in paragraph 4 to . A. remind the reader that Gregor has already turned into an insect B. stress the disconnection between Gregors thoughts and his actual situation C. present important details about what Gregors new body looks like D. show that Gregors thou
44、ghts are focused on the changes to his bodyThe passage most strongly suggests which of the following about Gregors attitude toward his profession? A. He is angry. B. He is eager to please. C. He is depressed.D. He is diligent.The main rhetorical(修辭的)effect of the final sentence of the excerpt (“Firs
45、t of all though, Ive got to get up,my train leaves at five”) is to. A. provide a solution to the conflict Gregor faces B. foretell the conflict between Gregor and his boss B. illustrate Gregors flexibility and ability to move on D. emphasize Gregors extreme sense of duty第二節(jié):(共5個小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容

You can find small skirts, tiny T-shirts and skinny jeans there. 31 With celebrities (明星) and fashion vloggers posting photos of Brandy Melville clothing online, the brand h
47、as got popular all over the world. However, many girls are finding that the brands clothes are too small. The brands idea of “one size fits all” has made them feel uncomfortable. “ 32 Everyone has a different shape,” a girl named Allison told Buzzfeed.“It sends a message that if you dont fit into th
48、e clothing, whether its too big or too small, youre not normal, which leads to all sorts of body dissatisfaction,” Allison added._33 According to a survey by Girl Guiding UK, 47 percent of girls aged 11-21 say the way they look holds them back. In China, more than half of teenagers want to lose weig
49、ht to make themselves look better, according to a survey by Southern Weekly.Fashion trends set by companies like Brandy Melville are “ruining the girls self-esteem (自尊心)”, as Nicolette Simons wrote for Odyssey. The unrealistic sizes of their clothes can make girls feel like they are too fat. 34 They
50、 might not even realize that this is not their fault, but the fault of the trend.“Girls should learn to accept different body shapes and show themselves with confidence,” as TMT Post said. Nobody needs to be a “Brandy Melville girl”. 35 A. Just be yourself.B. Your clothes say a lot about you.C. Ther
51、es clearly no such thing as one size fits all!D. They might try to lose weight at the cost of their health.E. Everything in the shop is designed only for one body type: thin.F. In fact, its common for teenagers to feel unhappy with their bodies.G. Following fashion trends has little to do with your
