have never been on a cruise(乘船游览),it can seem like its own worldwith its own rules and secret language.So here we are going to lay out the very basics of going on a cruise.Do I need a passport to go on a cruise?You may need a passport,but you should take one anyway.Besides the fact that you are going to need an ID card to board the ship in the first place,a lot of ports require one.How much luggage can I take on board?For the most part,cruise ships arent like planesthere isnt a strictly regulated amount of luggage you can take with you,and you are not going to be charged for bringing too much.Keep in mind that cabin storage space can be tight.Everything,including your empty luggage,is going to have to fit inside and you dont want to be tripping over it for your whole vacation.Things like guns and knives are banned,but regulations vary from ship to ship about things like irons(generally a no)and hair dryers(generally a yes)Some ships allow you to bring a bottle of wine,but nearly all ban bringing your own hard alcohol.Whats the process for boarding a cruise ship?Boarding a cruise ship is like boarding a planethere are regulations for when to arrive,how to check in,and what security you have to go through.Most cruise lines have transportation available from the airport;otherwise they normally own a paid parking lot where you can leave your car.21.What will you have to show when you board a ship in the first place?A.An ID card.B.A post card.C.A credit card.D.Luggage.22.What can you take when you are on a cruise?A.As much alcohol as you can.B.More luggage than on a plane.C.Less luggage than on a plane.D.As many guns and knives as you can.23.Where does the text probably come from?A.A story book.B.A book review.C.A guide book.D.A science report B When Brody,a 4-year-old Connecticut boy,was asked what wish he wanted to come true,his only dream was that he could be able to play outside.Brody was born premature(早产)at 27 weeks,which caused him to overheat and burn easily.That means he cant spend any time outside and hell get burn blisters(水疱)on his face even when he is driven to the hospital.Besides,there are a lot of things he cant do.He has trouble walking and only began talking one year ago.Brody cant eat or drink and has to wear a backpack 24/7 that contains a pump that feeds him.“I cant even count the number of surgeries hes had since he was born,”Brodys mother said.“Hes spent probably half his life at the hospital.”When Make-A-Wish Connecticut,an organization that creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses,heard about Brodys request to play outside,they immediately jumped into action.“Its the 高三英语-2-/6 most simple,most sweet wish,just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.”said Debbie Artinian,the manager of Make-A-Wish Connecticut.Artinian and her team determined that a temperature-controlled tent outside Brodys home where he could play and not be in the sun would be the best option.But they had to find a tent that could stand weather conditions like wind and snow and had the right material to block all UV rays.Luckily,Artinian found a company based in the United Kingdom that could design and make the tent.Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach,even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack.So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like hes out at the beach.Brody got his first look at the tent earlier this summer.“When he walked out of the door and I saw his face,it was just everything,”said Artinian.“Now when Brody says Can I go out and play?,his mom can say,“Yes.”“Brody is now enjoying spending nearly all his time outside in the tent.”Its hard to make life completely normal for Brody,but Artinian and her team tried to make it as normal as they could.24.What can we learn about Brody?A.He cant be exposed to sunlight.B.He cant stand on his feet.C.He cant be given surgeries any more.D.He cant communicate with others.25.What did Make-A-Wish Connecticut think of Brodys dream?A.Inspiring and heart-warming B.Simple but incredible C.Difficult and unachievable D.Challenging but worthwhile 26.Why does the author mention the beach in Paragraph 4?A.To show that Brody is a boy who loves nature.B.To prove that the design company was responsible.C.To suggest that Artinian and her team were considerate.D.To emphasize that the skill in building the tent was the latest.27.What does the story mainly tell us?A.One good turn deserves another.B.A helping hand makes a difference.C.All things are difficult before they are easy.D.Tough life experience may result in success.CNew data presented this week at the annual Associated Professional Sleep Societies(APSS)suggest that a students preferred sleeping schedule has a lot to do with his or her grade-point average in school.In one study,researchers at the University of Pittsburg revealed that poor sleep habits among high school students led to lower grades,particularly in math.Its no surprise that poor sleep habits may negatively impact academic performance.And dozens of studies have linked an increase in nightly sleep to better cognition and alertness.The new research,however,goes a step further,quantifying the impact of erratic or inadequate sleep on grades.“These findings are more convincing than saying that if you get more sleep,youll feel better,”says Jennifer Cousins,a lead researcher of the study.The study involved data from 56 adolescents(34 female)between the ages of 14 and 18 years.They were asked to fill out sleep diaries for one week and wear a special activity monitor on their wrists,which recorded when the students were asleep or awake.Overall,teens with poor sleep habits received lower grades than students who stuck with a more regular sleep routine.Interestingly,Cousins also found that different sleep habits had different effects on the students school performance:those who woke up more often during the night did worse in math,for example,while those who slept peacefully through the night tended to get better grades in English.“These findings bring up new questions about teasing out(探讨)the details of what is important about 2020届河南省南阳市一中2017级高三第九次考试英语试卷高三英语-3-/6 sleep that impacts learning,”says Cousins.Does more sleep improve our ability to deal with abstract concepts found in math,or does sleep quality increase creativity?We dont know the answers,and dont want to draw those conclusions yet.But this helps us understand more about how sleep helps the things we do in daily life.Authors of the study point out that the results provide overwhelming evidence of the importance of sleep during a period of development that is critical for adolescents and recommend sleep education as a preventative tool to help increase awareness of the importance of sleep and of the negative consequences of poor sleep.28.What does the underlined word erratic in the second paragraph probably mean?A.Adequate B.Different C.Stable D.Irregular 29.What can we learn from Jennifer Cousins research?A.Lower grades in math are related to more awakenings at night.B.The longer you sleep,the better your grades in English will be.C.The findings will cause new insoluble problems about sleeping and learning.D.Different sleep habits have similar effects on students learning.30.Which of the following do you think Jennifer Cousins will NOT agree with?A.People should understand the importance of sleep for students.B.Whether greater sleep quality help increase students creativity is not known yet.C.Students grades mainly depend on their sleep quality.D.The study helps researchers understand how sleep affects learning.31.Which of the following is true of the study?A.It was conducted by scientists from the APSS.B.Twenty-two teenage boys took part in the study.C.All participants kept sleep diaries for a month.D.Some teens wore a special device all day.D For all the technological wonders of modern medicine,health carewith its fax machines and clipboards(粘贴板)is out of date.This outdated era is slowly drawing to a close as the industry catches up with the artificial intelligence(AI)revolution.Eric Topol,an expert in heart disease and enthusiast for digital medicine,thinks AI will be particularly useful for such tasks as examining images,observing heart traces for abnormalities or turning doctors words into patient records.It will be able to use masses of data to work out the best treatments,and improve workflows in hospitals.In short,AI is set to save time,lives and money.The fear some people have is that AI will be used to deepen the assembly line culture of modern medicine.If it gives a“gift of time”to doctors,they argue that this bonus should be used to extend consultations,rather than simply speeding through them more efficiently.That is a fine idea,but as health swallows an ever bigger share of national wealth,greater efficiency is exactly what is needed,at least so far as governments and insurers are concerned.Otherwise,rich societies may fail to cope with the needs of ageing and growing populations.An extra five minutes spent chatting with a patient is costly as well as valuable.The AI revolution will also enable managerial accountants to adjust and evaluate every aspect of treatment.The autonomy of the doctor will surely be weakened,especially,perhaps,in public health systems which are duty bound to cut unnecessary costs.The Hippocratic Oath(誓言)holds that there is an art to medicine as well as a science and that“warmth,sympathy and understanding may outweigh the surgeons knife or the chemists drug”Theres lots of sense in it:the patients of sympathetic physicians have been shown to recover better.Yet as the supply of human careers fails to satisfy the demand for health care,the future may involve consultations on smart phones and measurements monitored by chat robots.The considerately warmed stethoscope(听诊器),placed gently on a patients back,may become a relic of the past.2020届河南省南阳市一中2017级高三第九次考试英语试卷高三英语-4-/6 32.Whats Dr Topols attitude toward AIs coming into medicine?A.Optimistic.B.Doubtful.C.Cautious.D.Concerned.33.What does the author of the text attach more importance to?A.Medical costs.B.Greater efficiency.C.Longer consultation.D.National wealth 34.Why is the Hippocratic Oath mentioned?A.To prove the bright future of AI.B.To explain medical equipment is more important.C.To show the advantage of a human doctor.D.To argue a human doctor performs as well as a robot.35.What may be the best title for the text?A.Dr Topol and Digital Medicine B.AI and Its Applications C.Doctors and Patients D.Health Care and AI 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How Many Cups of Coffee per Day Are Too Many?From cappuccinos to cold brew,coffee is a must-have to start the day for many people.36 However,a new study suggests too much coffee can be harmful.This is what a recent study shows.37 A University of South Australia study led by Elian Hypponen suggests a couple of cups to start your day probably wont hurt and may even be good for you.But drinking six or more cups of coffee a day can increase your risk of heart disease by up to 22%,the researchers found.A cup was defined as eight ounces of coffee.Knowing the limits of whats good for us and whats not is necessary.38 About one in four deaths in the United States is due to heart disease,according to the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide.Thats why Elian set out to discover how much caffeine causes high blood pressure.39 Elian says her findings suggest that sipping two to three cups per day is pretty safe and possibly beneficial.She also notes that if youre generally healthy,lots of evidence suggests that four cups per day shouldnt be harmful.40 Even though the research says five cups of coffee is permissible,each person should know his or her own limit.If we begin having difficulty sleeping or feeling nervous,we might have reached our limit for the day.A.Drink no more than six cups per day.B.Over the limits and our health will pay for it.C.Coffee is the most popular drink in the world.D.But of course,dont forget to listen to our body.E.The relation between them is quite complicated.F.As we know,it is a key heart disease risk factor.G.It sets you off on an energetic morning and prepares you for a busy day.第三部分英语知识运用(共三节,满分45 分)第一节完形填空(共20 小题;每小题1 分,满分 20 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A couple of weeks ago,when we were leaving one of those horrible giant trampoline bouncy(弹跳床)places,my 11-year-old daughter said to me,“I dont think Im very athletic,you know,like Rocket(her brother).He seems to be really good at 41 .”What came out my mouth 42 me:“No,youre kind of

to show her with some 48 :“Oh,no honey.Youre good at sports!You just have to keep 49 !”But I decided to tell her the 50 ,and I could see it hurt a bit.So I said more:“Ava,we all have things we are particularly,51 good at.Like you and 52 .Youre in the 5th grade and read Charles Dickens.That isnt 53 ,but youve done it without even trying.But all of us also have things that we are 54 in.If we want to get good at those things,we have to put in twice the 55 of the people around us to get to a decent(相当的)point and even harder if we want to 56 .”She was nodding.She totally 57 it.Why?Because its the truth.Sometimes I wonder why we run around talking nonsense(胡扯)to our kids when they can 58 the truth.And they can smell rubbish from a mile away.In other words,they can easily recognize you are 59
