2022 届高考 4月份模拟考试英语试卷

第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分 50 分）

第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

If you're traveling to South America in summer, you should have Patagonia (at the southern end of South

America) high up on your list of things to do. With this list, I show you the best places to visit in Patagonia. The

climate down there is pretty rough, especially in the very south-if you plan to do hiking or camping, the best time

for a trip is between the end of November and the beginning of March.

1. Bariloche, Argentina

The fact that Bariloche is well connected (airport, direct bus to and from Buenos Aires) makes it the perfect

starting point of a round trip through Patagonia. But more than that: the combination of mountains, lakes and

green forests results in its beautiful scenery.

2. Futaleufú,Chile

Further down south and a bit harder to access is the small Chilean village Futaleufú which is located at the

border to Argentina. The reason which makes it worth it: the Futaleufu River is often referred to as one of the best

white water spots for rafting in the world. The landscape along the river is unique and, due to its location, still

pretty much untouched.

3. Puerto Rio Tranquilo, Chile

If you want to get there quickly, you should travel through Argentina and cross over to Chile Chico as this

place is also very remote. The reason to do so: the marble caves in the General

Carrera lake.

4. Torres del Paine, Chile

Personally the national park Torres del Paine is my number I attraction in Patagonia-you should take some

time and do a multi-day trek to experience as much of it as possible: glaciers, forests, impressive mountain ranges,

lagoons and rivers.

1. What is the best time for hiking in Patagonia?

A. October 1-Novemberll B. December 25-January 15

C. March 5-April 1 D. November 5-June 7

2. Which of the following about the Futaleufu River is true?

A. It lies in an easily accessible village. B. It is ignored due to rafting sports.

C. It is the best rafting river in the world. D. It still has untouched landscapes.

3. Which place attracts the author most in Patagonia?

A. Bariloche. B. Futaleufú.

C. Puerto Rio Tranquilo. D. Torres del Paine.

Last month, my husband and I completed what some of our friends considered a foolish task: a 32-day, 5,

232-mile camping trip with children in our Volkswagen van, without ''high-tech'' to occupy the children.

It was the screen less journey that showered me with doubts. But is ''boredom'' senseless? My friend Renee,

who has driven cross-country with her three kids eight times, calls boredom the mother of creativity. She's not the

only one who sees virtue in blank time. In a recently published paper, researchers at East Anglia University in

England concluded that the trance like（发呆的）state helps recharge the mind and is ''central to learning and

creativity''. I wasn't trying to make my kids smarter. Neither do I dislike high-tech. But I understand too well the

power of mini screens to transform our kids into zombies（木讷的人）.

On Day 1, our 7-year-old son announced ''Texas is so boring!''. The next day, struggling against his seat belt,

he yelled he couldn't take much more of this. His 5-year-old sister was better at the long hours playing

make-believe with the stuffed animals. On Day 3, he began count mountains and see pandas and dolphins in

distant clouds in the Texas sky. I often joined the kids in the back, where we did thumb-and-toe wrestle. With

well-known mountains ahead, my husband told the children the past legends of them. ''Arizona is not as boring as

高三英语第2页共6页

Texas,'' our son declared.

I hope the trip gave kids some lazy, unstructured time to learn something about valuing the trip instead of

looking for the fastest way to burn it up. I don't always make the right call as a parent but I know that in banning

the small screen we made the right choice this time.

4. Why did the author choose a high-tech free journey?

A. Her friends are highly against it.

B. She disliked advanced technology.

C. She feared the passive influence of mini-screens.

D. The researchers proved the harm of modern technology.

5. What happened during the cross-country drive?

A. Their son got worse at boredom.

B. Her kids had a tough time riding in the vehicle.

C. Their son relieved himself by watching animals outside.

D. The time spent without screens strengthened the family bond.

6. The underlined part ''the fastest way'' in the last paragraph refers to ______.

A. the speediest route to finish the journey

B. the ability to observe the surroundings

C. the interest of playing games with others

D. the choice of killing time by playing digital devices

7. Which is the best title for the text?

A. Is Driving Long Distances Good for Children?

B. A Touching Cross-country Trip of My Family

C. What's Wrong with Boredom without High-tech?

D. Creative Kids out of Parents' Reasonable Choice

A water-proof drone（无人机）is being used by Australian scientists to collect the highly-treasured snot（鼻

涕）of migrating whales. The snot is rich with fresh DNA, viruses and bacteria, and is collected by a drone that

hovers over the blowholes of humpback whales as they set off their annual journey along Australia's east coast.

Vanessa Pirotta, a marine biologist at Macquarie University, says that snot indicates the health of the whale.

She states, "It is the juicy biological mixture that you see as a humpback whale takes a breath when they surface

from the water. It sounds like sounds of sharp breaths as a whale breathes, because, unlike sharks or other fish,

they are mammals like humans and they have two openings for breathing on their back as well. So, as they take a

breath, there are a lot of lung bacteria coming out from their lungs, which we can collect to provide a brief

introduction of whale health."

Australian researchers have attached a petri dish that is used in scientific tests to a drone which flies through

the whale's nasal mist（鼻腔喷出雾）. Vanessa Pirotta added, "As a whale comes to take a breath, you can actually

see it coming to the surface on really good weather days. That is the time-the drone lowers, and the petri dish is

then opened and the drone is flown through the densest part of the whale snot, collecting the sample in the petri

dish. Now once this happens the lid is shut and the drone is flown back to the research vessel and we collect the

sample to later process it in the laboratory."

The research could help to solve one of the mysteries of another magnificent creature of the deep sea—the

southern right whale. Its numbers have recovered on Australia's west coast since hunting was outlawed but its

population on the eastern seaboard remains stubbornly low.

8. Which of the following statements about snot is true?

A. It helps to know about the health of the whale.

B. It always carries many deadly lung bacteria.

C. It can only be collected during annual migrations.

D. It is a biological mixture without DNA.

9. What's the function of the petri dish?

A. To lower the water-proof drone. B. To identify the densest part of the snot.

C. To gather samples of the snot. D. To process snot samples in the lab.
