高三英语上学期第12周周练题(无答案)

四川省宜宾市一中2018-2019学年高三英语上学期第12周周练题

A

As smart devices continue to fill people’s daily life, the debate over their place in the classroom has grown increasingly. Now, a study conducted at the United States Military Academy just might put an end to it.

In a recent investigation, researchers found that students who were permitted to use laptops or tablets in the classroom performed worse than those who did not—and those with higher initial GPAs(平均成绩) were most heavily affected.

While some argue that laptops aid students in note-taking and comprehension, many say that they couldn’t pay attention to the lessons. To get to the bottom of the issue, researchers investigated the effect of laptops and tablets on student performance in a course at a school.

In the study, the class was then divided into two treatment groups. The first treatment group was permitted to use laptops and tablets for purposes relating to their lesson. If the students were obviously distracted, professors could stop them from using the devices. In the second group, students could only use tablets, making the screen easily visible to the professors. When it came time for final exam scores, the researchers found that using a laptop or tablet in the classroom had caused a drop of roughly one-fifth of a standard. The results for the two treatment groups were nearly the same, they say.

And, the negative effects were seen most heavily in male students. The estimated effects of the two treatment groups are nearly the same, suggesting that even

allowing students to use computer devices in a manner that is controlled by the professor can have harmful effects on classroom performance.

The researchers say that both unrestricted and restricted use may affect students in a number of ways. It could lead to distractions, in which students are checking social media or even doing homework for another class, and it may reduce students’abilities to effectively take notes.

1.The underlined word “it”in the first paragraph may refer to ______.

A.the device

B.the debate

C.the classroom

D.the study

2.Who suffered from the use of smart devices most in the study?

A.The male students with higher GPAs.

B.The students with poor academic performance.

C.The students who could use laptops or tablets freely.

D.The male students who could use laptops or tablets under control.

3.What conclusion did the study draw?

A.The professors had no effect on students’scores.

B.The first treatment group had a rise of the scores.

C.The second treatment group did better than the first.

D.The two treatment groups both saw a drop in the scores.

4.What can be inferred from the text?

https://www.wendangku.net/doc/268418502.html,ing laptops could help students perform better in a course.

B.The negative effects of computer devices depended on gender.

C.The distraction caused the drop of the students’scores.

D.Restricted use of laptops aided students in taking notes.

A machine that takes sweat-laden (浸满汗水的) clothes and turns the sweat into drinking water is in use in Sweden. The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly, heats them to remove the sweat, and then passes the steam through a kind of special material to make purified water

The device was built for the United Nations’child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.

The machine was designed and built by the engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show “Mekatronik”. He said the key part of the sweat machine was a new water purification part developed by a company named HVR.

“It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),”he told the BBC. “We use a special kind of material that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other things out. They have something similar to the International Space Station, but our machine is cheaper to build. The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is, but one person’s T-shirt typically produces 10ml, about a mouthful.”

The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup-the world’s largest international youth football tournament. Mattias Ronge, chief executive of

Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo, said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations.

“People haven’t produced as much sweat as we hoped –right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy,”Mattias Ronge said. “So we’ve equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy. Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be produced in large numbers, since there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills.”

1. Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat machine?

A. It takes too long for the machine to produce water.

B. It costs a large amount of money to build the machine.

C. The amount of water the machine produces is rather limited.

D. The water processed by the machine is not clean enough.

2. UNICEF is mentioned in the text to ________.

A. show how the sweat machine works

B. tell us who invented the sweat machine

C. show the importance of the United Nations

D. explain why the sweat machine was invented

3. What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?

A. It did not work at all.

B. It was not worth popularizing.

C. It could only be used in summer.

D. The water it produced tasted sweet.

4.The text is written mainly to tell us that ______________.

A. a better solution to purifying dirty water is discovered

B. 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water

C. a machine which turns sweat into drinking water is invented

D. the pill which turns dirty water into clean water is produced

She became the first American married woman to keep her own family name for her entire life. Both she and her husband also fought the popular idea that husbands had legal control over their wives.

In her most famous assignment, she spent ten days living in a mental institution to expose the conditions the patients faced. Alice Coachman Alice Coachman was the first African-American woman to win Olympic gold. She grew up in Georgia, where prejudice prevented her from joining sports teams. So she trained on her own.

高三英语周练1

高三英语周练（1）试题 命题人：考试时间：50分钟总分：89分 Ⅰ. 阅读理解(满分39分) A Food festivals around the world Stilton Cheese Rolling May Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane(赛道). Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese. Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on Earth Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy(辛辣),but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you! La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food Fight On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina—the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd. The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash! 1. In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must________. A. wear various formal clothes B. roll a wooden cheese in their own lane C. kick or throw their cheese D. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos 2. Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held? A. In New Mexico. B. In the Caribbean. C. In Australia. D. In China.

河北省定州市2017届高三英语下学期周练试题（复习班，4.9） 一、阅读理解 As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies (财政补贴) , which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents (居民) . Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion(比例) to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU ( European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation. Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms' impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition (联合) government are in disagreement over what it should say. We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report, and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention. The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion （猜疑）that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.
