    精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上2016高三英语模拟考试II. Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)Once just a science fiction idea, VR has now become more accessible than ever. (25) _ (wear) a pair of VR goggles connected to your computer and you can experience a lot of things without stepping out of the room. From climbing (26) _ (high) mountain in the world to flying a spacecraft, the things you can experience with VR are limitless.This new 'reality ' is starting to takeover China. The Report on Chinese VR Users' Behavior was released on March 18 during the 12th TFC Global Mobile Game Conference & Intelligent Entertainment Expo held in Beijing. The report is based on a survey of 5,626 people, (27) _ (age) between 15 and 39, from across the country. It shows that up to 68.5 percent of people have heard of or are interested in VR products.But surprisingly, it isn't new technology that has made VR so popular. 'VR has been (28) _ for many years, but it will stick this time because there's enough computer power and the price will just keep going down,' Todd Richmond, a VR group member with the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers in the US, told USA Today.VR (29) _ (expect) to change various different fields. For example, VR could be used to train pilots and miners before they had to actually risk their lives in highly dangerous working environments, or to treat patients with acrophobia(恐高症)by making them think they were standing on top of a high building.'If you have perfect virtual reality, (30) _ you'll be able to simulate everything that a human can experience or imagine experiencing,it's hard to imagine where you go from there,' Palmer Luckey, 23 inventor of the Oculus VR goggles, told NPR.But the technology is still far from perfect. Users report experiencing motion sickness, headaches and other discomfort while wearing VR goggles. Also, (31) _ more and more tools are flooding the market, the software that runs VR games and simulators has yet to catch up with all the new advancements. It could take (32) _ while for VR to be widely accepted.When every new technology is first introduced, the technology (33) _ is the driving force. But for it to really blend into people's lives, meeting basic and practical needs should be the main aim.(B)It has become the talk of the town: A stranger allegedly attacked a woman in a Beijing hotel at night on April 3. The man is said to have clutched her by the neck and attempted to drag her into the elevator. Lodgers passed by, but no one tried to intervene until one woman did. Her actions are believed to (34) _ (save) the victim from whatever was going to happen to her.The incident has pushed the risks of solo traveling into the spotlight. Online forums like Sina Weibo (35) _ (flood) with advice for how women (36) _ protect themselves when they find themselves alone. This case reminded many of the murder of Sarai Sierra, a 33-year-old New York woman. A homeless man killed her while she was traveling alone in Turkey in 2013. After the tragedy ,some netizens blamed Sierra for her own murder. One comment (37) _ (read), 'A single woman traveling alone is risky . In a foreign country, it is downright foolish', another commenter wrote,'A woman has no business traveling alone.' Though gender does play into the rates and kinds of attacks a traveler might be subject to women and men need to be equally wary of potential risks. Last summer, a 19 -year-old American man allegedly found himself (38) _ (lock) inside his Airbnb rental in Madrid, Spain. That's when his host tried to sexually assault him, the teen said. (39) _ gender you are, it's always important to stay alert and never take any chances. Luo Chenyu, 22, is a senior student at Yunnan University. She went to Thailand last year on a campus exchange program. One night, she said she and a friend were walking on the street in Bangkok when they had the feeling a man was tailing them. They picked up their pace and walked into a nearby grocery store. Just as they expected, the man followed them into the store and lingered for a few moments but eventually left without buying anything. Luo and her friend felt lucky that the situation did not escalate. She also said her self-defense training helped her feel more prepared. 'I do a little karate. (40) _ I'm not skilled enough to defeat the attacker, I might still earn some time so I could get away,' she said. Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A.criticismB.discourage C.shiftsD.institute AB.industry AC.establishAD.credit BC.standards BD.accommodate CD.leaves ABC.demonstrateAlthough Henry Ford's name is closely associated with the concept of mass production, he should receive equal (41) _ for introducing labor practices as early as 1913 that would be considered advanced even by today's (42) _ . Safety measures were improved, and the work day was reduced to eight hours, compared with the ten-or twelve-hour day common at the time. In order to (43) _ the shorter work day, the entire factory was converted from two to three (44) _ . In addition,sick (45) _ as well as improved medical care for those injured on the job were instituted. The Ford Motor Company was one of the first factories to develop a technical school to train specialized skilled laborers and an English language school for immigrants. Some efforts were even made to hire the handicapped and provide jobs for former convicts. The most widely acclaimed innovation was the five-dollar-a-day minimum wage that was offered in order to recruit and retain the best mechanics and to (46) _ the growth of labor unions. Ford explained the new wage policy in terms of efficiency and profit sharing. He also mentioned the fact that his employees would be able to purchase the automobiles that they produced - in effect creating a market for the product. In order to qualify for the minimum wage , an employee had to establish a decent home and (47) _ good personal habits , including sobriety , thriftiness, (48) _ , and dependability. Although some (49) _ was directed at Ford for involving himself too much in the personal lives of his employees,there can be no doubt that, at a time when immigrants were being taken advantage of in frightful ways, Henry Ford was helping many people to (50) _ themselves in America.III. Reading Comprehension Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.President Obama's second Inaugural Address used soaring language to stress America's commitment to the dream of equality of opportunity: We are true to our belief that a little girl born into (51) _ knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else, because she is an American.'The gap between ideal and reality could hardly be (52) _. Today, the United States has less equality of opportunity than almost any other advanced industrial country. Study after study has (53) _ the myth that America is a land of opportunity. A way of looking at equality of opportunity is to ask to what extent the life chances of a child are (54) _ the education and income of his parents. Is it just as likely that a child of poor or poorly educated parents gets a good education and rises to the middle class as someone born to middle-class parents with college degrees? Even in a more democratic society, the answer would be no.How do we explain this? Some of it has to do with persistent discrimination. Latinos and African-Americans still get paid less than whites, and women still get paid less than men, (55) _ they recently surpassed men in the number of advanced degrees they obtain. Discrimination, however, is only a small part of the (56) _. Probably the most important reason for (57) _ of equality of opportunity is education. After World War II, we made a major effort to (58) _ higher education to Americans across the country. But then we changed, in several ways. While racial segregation decreased, economic segregation increased. After 1980, the poor grew poorer, the middle stagnated(停滞不前), and the top did better and better. A result was a widening gap in educational performance - the (59) _ gap between rich and poor kids born in 2001 was 30 to 40 percent larger than it was for those born 25 years earlier, a Stanford sociologist found. Of course, there are other forces (60) _. Children in rich families get more exposure to reading.Children in rich families get more exposure to reading. Their families can afford enriching experiences like music lessons and summer camp. They get better nutrition and health care, which enhance their learning, directly and indirectly.Now Americans are coming to realize that without substantial policy changes, their long cherished belief is only a myth. It is unreasonable that a rich country like the United States has made (61) _ to higher education so difficult for those at the bottom and middle. There are many (62) _ ways of providing chances for more to receive higher education, from Australia's income-contingent loan program to the near-free system of universities in Europe. A more educated population yields greater innovation, and a robust economy. Those benefits are why we've long been (63) _ to fee public education through 12th grade. But while a 12th-grade education might have been enough a century ago, it isn't today. Yet we haven't (64) _ our system to contemporary realities.The steps I've outlined are not just affordable but necessary. Even more important, though, is that we cannot afford to let our country drift farther from (65) _ that the vast majority of Americans share. We will never fully succeed in achieving Mr. Obama's vision of a poor girl's having exactly the same opportunities as a wealthy girl. But we could do much, much better, and must not rest until we do.51.A.prejudiceB.inferiorC.povertyD.minority52.A.narrowerB.widerC.severerD.closer53.A.conductedB.concludedC.excludedD.exposed54.A.distinct fromB.feasible byC.superior toD.dependent on55.A.even thoughB.as thoughC.only ifD.as if56.A.photographB.pictureC.atmosphereD.condition57.A.lackB.leakC.explosionD.extinction58.A.exhibitB.exploreC.extendD.exploit59.A.scholarshipB.satisfactionC.achievementD.ambition60.A.at playB.under controlC.in useD.on show61.A.devotionB.familiarityC.applicationD.access62.A.imaginativeB.alternativeC.initiativeD.productive63.A.admittedB.addictedC.committedD.restricted64.A.abandonedB.adjustedC.alteredD.applied65.A.memoriesB.gloryC.realityD.idealsSection BDirections: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)WOMEN have been driving yellow cabs in New York since the 1940s, but 99% of drivers are male. Even among drivers of cars booked by phone or online, only 4% are women. That may change with the launch of SheTaxis, an app that lets female passengers insist on female drivers, and vice versa.It will be available in New York City (where it will be called 'SheRides'), Westchester and Long Island, and the firm plans to expand to other cities. Stella Mateo, the founder, is betting that quite a few women are nervous and weary of getting into cars driven by men. The service may also appeal to those whose religious beliefs forbid them to travel with unrelated men. Each driver wears a pink pashmina. Men who ask for a ride will be directed to another car service.Similar services thrive in India, South Africa and several Middle Eastern cities. Some Brazilian and Mexican cities offer women-only public-transport programmes known as 'pink transport'. Japan has had women-only railway carriages on and off since 1912. Known as hana densha (flower trains), they offer a haven from the gropers who make rush hour in Tokyo so disagreeable. Women-only hotel floors are popular, too.But SheTaxis faces two speed bumps. One is practical. Demand has been so great that the firm has had to decelerate its launch until it can recruit 500 drivers. The other obstacle is legal. By employing only female drivers, SheTaxis is obviously discriminating against men. Since anti-discrimination law is not always applied with common sense, that may be illegal. And there is no shortage of potential litigants. Yellow cabbies are furious at the growth of online taxi firms such as Uber. 'It's not hard to imagine a guy.filing suit,' says Sylvia Law of New York University Law School. SheTaxi's defence would probably be that its drivers are all independent contractors.Because the firm caters only to women, it is discriminating against male customers, too. Is that legal? Angela Cornell of Cornell Law School thinks there could be a loophole. New York's Human Rights Commission could make an exemption on the ground that SheTaxi offers a service that is in the public interest: women feel safer not getting into cars with strange men. Women-only colleges are allowed, so why not women-only cabs? The snag is that some men may also feel safer getting into cabs with female drivers. A study in 2010 found that 80% of crashes in New York City that kill or seriously injure pedestrians involve male drivers. Women drivers are simply better.66. It can be inferred that the service of SheTaxis may appeal to_.A.women who are nervous about taxi driversB.women with certain religious beliefsC.women who are tired of taking taxisD.men who ask for a ride 67. The word 'gropers' (para.3) probably refers to_.A. people who cause a traffic jamB. men who make sexual harassment to womenC. men who cause the rush hour in TokyoD. people who make taking trains disagreeable68.
