高三第三次診斷性檢測英語試卷

　　一、閱讀理解

　　Considering the climate temperature in England, most tourists like to visit London between April and September. Tourists also enjoy what London has to offer during Christmas.

　　Getting around London Transportation in London is divided into zones, which means the further you intend to go, the more expensive it will cost you. You’ll find one of the best subways here, with single rides starting at about 2.5 dollars. You can also use taxis (keep in mind that black cabs do not accept smart cards), boats, buses as well as commuter trains. To avoid any trouble, you can get yourself a smart card and perhaps load it with 50 dollars to cover your weekly travel budget.

　　Weather in London To enjoy warm weather in London, plan your visit in July as it is the hottest month. January is the coldest month in London.

　　What You Should Know before Visiting London Unlike most cities in Europe, life in London is a bit more expensive. Also, make sure you plan ahead so that you won’t miss out on the best tickets, hotels and offers.

　　You are chatting with friends on the phone, but you can’t help browsing a shopping website in the meantime. You’re eating lunch alone in the canteen, but it only feels right when you start playing a show on your phone—as if it’s a necessary side dish.

　　We now live in a world that bombards us with information. It seems unnatural to do only one thing at a time. It’s as if we’re all suffering from what a recent Qdaily article called “multitasking OCD” (多任務(wù)強(qiáng)迫癥).

　　“With news reduced to 140 characters and communication increasingly made by emojis (表情符號), we have developed the ability to focus our attention on several activities and devices at the same time.” Saby Otmani, founder of the website Pulpix, once wrote, “We need lots of stimuli (刺激元素) to keep us interested and to fight off boredom.”

　　But perhaps “fighting off boredom” is not the only reason. My own obsession with multitasking mainly comes from the fact that everyone around me seems to be constantly studying. Each minute without new information feels like a waste of time. So I always have my headphones on, whether I ’m commuting, exercising or walking in the park. I ’m forever listening to something—a course on classical music, or on new media management, and heaven knows what else—just so I can keep up with the world.

　　People who can’t stay away from social media are known as FOMO (fear of missing out). They have to be constantly updated about what their friends are doing and saying. But I’d guess that “FOFO” better describes me—“fear of falling out”. No matter what your reason, multitasking is a part of modern life. Do your best to make the most out of it.

　　1.With the examples in the first paragraph, the author intends to ________.

　　A. explain what “multitasking OCD” is likeB. show how busy today’s life is

　　C. show that people today often feel lostD. show people like to be fashionable

　　2.Why do people like multitasking, according to Otmani

　　A. They lack the patience to finish one thing at a time.

　　B. It can help them to communicate their ideas.

　　C. They are more able than the past generation.

　　D. It can prevent them from being bored.

　　3.The underlined word “obsession” is closest in meaning to “________”.

　　A. interestB. knowledgeC. understandingD. worry

　　4.Why is the writer crazy about multitasking She ________.

　　A. wants to stay ahead of her friendsB. wants to have something to show off

　　C. doesn’t want to get left behind by othersD. thinks it is boring to do one thing at a time

　　Many of us know about Russia’s Lake Baikal from our textbooks, or by listening to Chinese singer Li Jian’s hit song, Lie Baikal. But over the past decade, the world’s deepest freshwater lake has been in the spotlight for an extreme sport.

　　Each March since 20xx, about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon. They come to explore the lake’s breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions. The 26-mile (41.84-kilometers) journey starts on the lake’s eastern shore. In March, the ice is a meter thick and iron-hard. Runners cross this frozen surface, finishing on the western side of the lake.

　　Known as the “blue eye of Siberia”, Lake Baikal has exceptionally clear waters. This means its ice is almost perfectly transparent (透明的). “Seen from above, a runner on the ice looks as if he or she were jogging through space.” The New York Times noted.

　　The landscape might be beautiful, but it’s also harsh. Strong winds blast (侵襲) across the lake and frostbite can occur within half an hour. Runners say the cold climate is what draws them. They want to test their limits.

　　“When you are in such an environment, you don’t have cars around you, and you don’t have the noise around. I think these extreme races allow you to be alone with nature.” Alicja Barahona, a 64-year-old runner from the US, told ABC news.

　　The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finishing line is visible from the start, but the endless white offers no progress markers. The race also ends with little fanfare (隆重的歡迎). Tourists crowding the ice are mostly addicted to snapping selfies (自拍) and just ignore the runners.

　　For some runners, the absence of spectators makes the race more challenging, because it’s lonely. They must fight with themselves. “You are alone on Baikal. It is your race. You are alone with yourself. All you need to do is to defeat yourself.” Veronique Messina, a French runner, told the Telegraph.

　　1.What can we know about the Baikal Ice Marathon from the article

　　A. It takes runners from the northern end to the southern end of the lake.

　　B. It involves extreme weather and beautiful scenery.

　　C. It attracts more and more participants each year.

　　D. It is about 26 kilometers in length.

　　2.How does the Baikal Ice Marathon differ from other marathons

　　A. Only men are allowed to run in this race.

　　B. The runners are often distracted by tourists.

　　C. There are many progress markers on the ice.

　　D. The runners can see the finishing line from the start.

　　3.What is the most challenging part of the race for Messina

　　A. The cold climate.B. The long distance.

　　C. Noisy surroundings.D. Loneliness.

　　4.How many reasons are listed to show the loneliness

　　A. 5.B. 4.

　　C. 3.D. 2.

　　A research has shown that nearly 90 percent of traffic accidents are caused by human errors. So our aim is a fully autonomous (自動的) car that gets rid of the cause of most accidents: the driver. Researcher Hodgson points out, “For safety, the faster you can remove humans, the better, even if there are unfortunately a few accidents from new causes. It’s a question of balancing the number injured or killed by autonomous vehicles with the people whose lives are potentially saved.”

　　It’s an idea that Elon Musk, chief executive of electric car company Tesla Motors, has long believed. His company is determined to be the first to deliver a fully autonomous vehicle to consumers. Last year, Musk announced that Tesla’s 20xx goal was “to do an example drive of full autonomy all the way from L. A. to New York， and have the car park itself.

　　However, even Tesla admits that there are problems to overcome—the software needs further validation (批準(zhǔn)生效) and the appropriate regulatory approval needs to be in place. Indeed, recent crashes of Tesla vehicles and Google cars confirm that the software isn’t ready yet.

　　The UK government appears committed encouraging the development of autonomous vehicles. It’s supporting four city trials, publishing the Modern Transport Bill to reduce red tape around their introduction and adapting the legal system to take into account problems such as insurance liability when a human isn’t in control of a vehicle.

　　The insurance industry is similarly eager to help increase autonomy in cars. As the Association of British Insurers points out, “Nearly 90 percent of road accidents are caused by human errors.” This costs motor insurers a shocking $20 million per day in claims.

　　1.What difficulty does the company Tesla Motors have

　　A. The company lacks confidence to make new creations.

　　B. New inventions may cause more injuries and deaths.

　　C. The software should be made officially acceptable.

　　D. The traffic regulation has proved unreasonable.

　　2.What is the UK government’s attitude to autonomous cars

　　A. Cautious.B. Positive.

　　C. Ambiguous.D. Disapproving.

　　3.What is the main idea of the last paragraph

　　A. Insurance companies would like to support autonomous cars.

　　B. Human mistakes may be the key cause of traffic accidents.

　　C. Traffic accidents waste insurance companies quite a lot.

　　D. Motorists are surprised to hear about autonomous cars.

　　4.The purpose of writing the text is to ________.

　　A. amuse readers with funny examples

　　B. show his deep love for autonomous cars

　　C. introduce a new development in technology

　　D. provide a persuasive argument against autonomy

　　二、七選五
