吉林省高三英语一模试题带答案(2)
C
Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which is thought to be responsible for global warming.
Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence (肠胃气胀) contains no methane and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.
While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack, pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.
“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Klieve, a senior research scientist with the greensland state government. “And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they are actually up around 50 percent,” he said.
Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.
Another group of scientists, meanwhile, have suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.
It’s low in fat, it ’s got high protein levels and it is very clean in the sense that basically it is free-range(放养的) animal,” said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’ institute of environmental studies.

A. to help Australian farmers to earn more money
B. to prevent them from sending out harmful gases
C. so that they can protect Australian ecosystem
D. so that they can make full use of special bacteria

A. it is rich in protein
B. it is low in fat
C. it is cheaper than beef
D. it is cleaner than sheep
31. The main idea of the passage is to ________.

When you put down your pens at the end of college entrance exam, 12 hard years of study will have come to an end. Forget your studies for a while. It’s time to enjoy yourselves!
There are many ways to celebrate this special month of graduation. You can have photos taken with your classmates and teachers, or dine out together and exchange gifts.
High school students in western countries such as the United States and Canada usually have a party to mark their graduation. It is to mark the time when kids turn into young men and women. After the party, teenagers either go to college or find a job. It means they will no longer depend on their parents as before.
At the party, boys usually dress in dinner jackets and bow ties, though many different types of formal clothes are worn. Girls traditionally wear formal dresses, or dress to shock or be noticed, in shiny or brightly colored materials.
Common party activities include dining, dancing, crowning of a ball king and queen, and just talking to friends. In some cases, high school students collect funds for their class party through the four years of their high school.
High schools in or near large cities may rent big rooms at expensive hotels or, to be unusual, on a pleasure boat. But often costs are cut by simply using the school gym. Students make a lot of efforts to decorate the gym to make the event special. The music played at the party will be the most popular kinds, like rock and hip-hop.
Sometimes teachers and parents also go to the party. But others like to go with friends, to whom they are soon going to say good-bye.
If you like the idea of a party, why don’t you and your classmates organize one for your graduation?
32. The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.
A. tell an interesting experience of high school students
B. tell how the western students spend the last days of high school
C. tell how western high school students usually celebrate graduation
D. introduce several ways of the western students’ killing time
33. What does the party mean for western high school students that are about to graduate?
A. They have finished high school and will go to college.
B. These teenagers can find a job to support themselves.
C. They have grown up and need friends’ help.
D. They are adults and will not depend on parents.
34. What does the underlined word “mark ” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.remember B. celebrate C.sign D.show
35. From the fourth paragraph ,we can infer that ________.
A. the party is very interesting
B. girls like to make themselves beautiful at all hours
C. boys wear as usual to attend the party
D. graduates pay much attention to the party

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。
36 Sometimes they try to get out of a class to escape a teacher they don’t like. Here is some advice to solve this problem.
Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this teacher?” Even if you don’t worship his or her personality or lectures, dig deep until you find a subject in which he or she is very knowledgeable. Focus on that part of the teacher’s personality, and use him or her as a tool for learning. Not only will you gain more knowledge in that subject, but a closer relationship with your teacher may help you understand one another better. 37
Talk to students who are doing well in the class and ask them for tips, tools, and a plan of action to get along with the teacher better. 38
If you still can’t get along, make an appointment with the school guidance counselor (辅导员). He or she will offer many tips and suggestions for you to get out of difficult teacher relationships. 39 That means they can help you and your teachers get rid of the bad impression on each other.
40 Your parents can meet with your teacher and try to work it out.
Teachers are there for more than just homework, and they know about more than just their subject matter. They can help you learn how to function as an adult and a lifelong learner.
Undoubtedly, these will be a few teachers along the way who you will always remember and who might change your life forever.
A. If your relationship problems can’t be solved in school, then it’s time to tell your parents or guardians.
B. If you’re too shy to talk to another student, study his or her actions and behavior in the classroom and try to follow that lead.
C. Students don’t always get along well with their teachers.
D. There must be something good in every teacher for you to learn from.
E. Students find it easy to get along well with their teachers.
F. Sometimes a guidance counselor can act as a mediator between you and the teacher.
G. Guidance counselors have the right to blame teachers.

Time flies! This is a third year that I have been in this school. In the past two and a half years, our school had organized many activities. What impressed me best was an activity called “Learning to Farm”. In an autumn afternoon, we were sent to a farm which we learned to plant potatoes. Having been in the city for so a long time, we were so happy to go to the countryside. After divided into three groups, we started to work. Some students cut potatoes into pieces; some dug holes, and the others put the pieces of potatoes into the hole, put the earth back and pushed them down hard. We continued doing that until all the work was done. Although we were exhausted, but we felt fulfilled on our way back home.
