    2021 届上海浦江高级中学高三英语上学期期末试题及参考答案 第一部分 阅读(共两节,满分 40 分)第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项 A Some of the worlds most talented musicians have played concerts atLincolnCenter.On September 10,the center hosted a unique class of star musicians:kids and teens.The young players are part of the World Peace Orchestra,or WPO.The group held its first Music for Peace concert inNew York City,with 134 students from more than 60 countries taking part.Musicians were chosen from all over the world.The World Peace Orchestra began in 2013.The nonprofit group brings kids together using the common language of music.To be considered for the orchestra,students first had to be recommended by their teachers and then audition online for a group of judges.Once chosen,professional musicians and teachers then worked with the players to improve their skills.Some of the young musicians played classical instruments,such as violins and flutes.Others played instruments unique to their home country.For example,Amold Mugo,16,fromKenya,played an instrument called the djembe.The drum is originally fromWest Africa.Mugo said he was shocked when he learned he was chosen for the orchestra.“I cant express how I felt.I was rolling on the floor.Its a once in a lifetime opportunity,”he said.Adomas Hendrixson,13,fromLithuania,played piano for the WPO.Before theNew York Cityperformance,Hendrixson talked about what he hoped to take away from the event.“Fun and joy-people smiling and clapping,”he said.“This is one of the only times in your life this could happen and Im very excited.”Mugo says his favorite part of the WPO is making new friends from around the world.“I hope when I go home,I just take a little bit of every friend that I made here-Brazil,Portugal,Queens,”Mugo said,“I hope that I take part of their culture home with me so I understand them more.”1.Who is most likely to have played for the WPO according to this passage?A.Li Ming,16,a student fromChina.B.Daniel,44,a judge fromAmerica.C.Edward,21,a clerk fromAustralia.D.Catherine,32,a teacher fromEngland.2.We can learn from the last paragraph that Mugo _.A.performed best for the WPO.B.has learned some foreign culture.C.was eager to be chosen for a second time.D.received a great award for his performance.3.What would be the best title for this passage?A.Kids were good at playing music.B.Mugo liked making foreign friends.C.Concerts were played atLincolncentre.D.Young musicians played for peace.B As summer approaches,many kids and teenagers may find that they have more time in hand.One great way to make use of the extra time is to go on an adventure and travel.Clearly,I am not a naturally adventurous person,but I have found that takingthe risk and challenging myself to explore and travel to unfamiliar places can be a very rewarding experience.Because I am usually quite busy during the school year,most of my travels take place during the summer.Over the past few summers,I have hiked in the Grand Canyon,explored Niagara Falls,and camped out in upstate New York.Although these experiences are varied,they are similar in that they instill(灌输)a sense of appreciation for nature and a more balanced view on life.When I hiked in the Grand Canyon,for example,I was in awe(敬畏)of the geological influences that shaped the canyon.Adventures,of course,are not limited to hiking.There are many other choices,such as camping,volunteering in a foreign environment and travelling to different countries.In my opinion,adventures are more enjoyable with family or a few friends.There is a sense of bonding that one only gets through spending time together in outdoor adventures.For example,when I was in Boy Scouts,I often went on weekend camping trips with my friends.When I came back from a Boy Scouts camping trip,I often was eager to go outside more and explore the parks and nature around me.Next fall,I will attend college.In the meantime though,I hope to make the most of my summer to explore and travel.Now,I am planning on hiking and camping out in Maine.When I visited Maine last fall,I was amazed by how beautiful it was and the tall trees and coasts that exist,and I really hope to enjoy the beauty of nature there this summer.4.We can learn from the first paragraph about the author?A.He is an adventurous person by nature B.He likes challenging himself by travelling C.He enjoys travelling with other adventurers D He needs others help when going on an adventure 5.Which of the following can make peoples adventure more enjoyable according to the author?A.Going to different countries.B.Going to unfamiliar places.C.Travelling withtheir family or friends.D.Travelling to distant places by themselves.6.What will the author do this summer?A.Explore Niagara Falls.B.Hike in the Grand Canyons.C.Camp out in upstate New York.D.Hike and camp out in Maine.7.Who is probably the author?A.A high school student.B.A college student.C.A friendly guide.D.A warm-hearted teacher.C In 2015,a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386,000 words in the entireFrench Scrabble Dictionaryin just nine weeks.However,he does not speak French.Richards impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works real AI.Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field.The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting.Because AI canoutperformhumans at routine tasks provided the task is in one field with a lot of data it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.But not every job will be replaced by AI.In fact,four types of jobs are not at risk at all.First,there are creative jobs.AI needs to be given a goal to optimize.It cannot invent,like scientists,novelists and artists can.Second,the complex,strategic jobs executives,diplomats,economists go well beyond the AI limitation of single-field and Big Data.Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI.Are you worried that these three types of jobs wont employ as many people as AI will replace?Not to worry,as the fourth type is much larger:jobs where emotions are needed,such as teachers,nannies and doctors.These jobs require compassion,trust and sympathy which AI does not have.And even if AI tried to fake it,nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer,or a robot to babysit their children.So there will still be jobs in the age of AI.The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them.This must be the responsibility not just of the government,which can provide funds,but also of corporations and those who benefit most.8.What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?A.To introduce the topic.B.To mention Nigels feat.C.To stress the importance of good memory.D.To suggest humans go beyond AI in memory.9.Which of the following best explains“outperform”underlined in paragraph 2?A.Be superior to B.Be equal to C.Be similar to D.Be related to 10.Which of the following jobs is the most likely to be replaced?A.The writer.B.The shop assistant.C.The babysitter.D.The psychologist.11.What does the text suggest people do about job replacement of AI?A.Limit the application of AI to a certain degree.B.Get more support from the government.C.Apply for the donation from companies.D.Upgrade themselves all the time.D Scientists say baby sharks are at risk of being born smaller and without the energy they need to survive because of warming oceans from climate change.Scientists studied epaulette sharks,which live off Australia and New Guinea.They found that warmer conditions sped up the sharks growing process.That meant the sharks were born earlier and very tired.The findings could be used in the study of other sharks,including those that give birth to live young.The scientists studied 27 sharks.Some were raised in average summer water temperatures,about 27 degrees Celsius.Others were raised in higher temperatures around 29 degrees Celsius and 31 degrees Celsius.They found that the sharks raised in the warmest temperatures weighed much less than those raised in average temperatures.They also showed reduced energy levels.Epaulette sharks can grow to a length of about one meter.Their name comes from large spots on their bodies that look like decorations on some military clothing.One study this year found that worldwide numbers of oceanie sharks and rays dropped more than 70 percent between 1970 and 2018.Overfishing is a main concern,while climate change and pollution also threaten shark.Carolyn Wheeler is a doctoral student at the University of Massachusetts Boston and with the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies at James Cook University in Australia.She was the lead author of the epaulette shark study.She said that while all the sharks survived,those raised in warmer temperatures were not strong enough to survive for long in the wild.She added that if the sharks are born smaller than usual“they are probably going to have to start looking for food soonerand theyre going to have less time to adjust to their surroundings.”The study should serve as a warning to ocean governing agencies that careful management is needed to prevent the loss of more sharks.12.In what aspect do the warmer conditions affect the baby sharks?A.Their food.B.Their body weight.C.Their living habits.D.Their moving route.13.How did the scientists carry out their study?A.By studying former data.B.By tracking sharks in the wild.C.By collecting information about climate change.D.By comparing sharks in waters of different temperatures 14.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A.The origin of sharks names.B.The sharks appearance.C.The threats to sharks survival.D.The sharks living environment.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Scientists Raise Sharks to Deal with Problems B.Global Warming Has Reduced Shark Populations C.Baby Sharks Struggle to Survive in Warming Oceans D.Scientists Are Struggling to Save Sharks from Extinction 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10
