高三英语模拟试题带参考答案(2)

　　D

　　After a friend recommended that he join a secret Google project six years ago, Brian Torcellini became a driver in a driverless car.

　　Torcellini，31, leads a crew of test drivers who are legally required to ride in Google’s fleet of 48 driverless cars . They only take a control in emergencies. Otherwise, they make observations that help the company’s engineers improve the driverless cars.

　　The driverless cars already have covered more than 2 million miles in six years of testing on private tracks, on highways and city streets. The vehicles have traveled more than half that distance in automated mode (自动模式)，with one test driver in place to take control of the car if the technology fails or a potentially dangerous situation arises. Meanwhile, another driver sits in the front passenger seat taking notes of the problems that need to be fixed.

　　The job of the test driver requires a sense of adventure, something Torcellini acquired when he began to surf in high school. His other hobbies include fishing and scuba diving.

　　While the engineers who are programming the robot cars have technical backgrounds, most of the test drivers don’t. Torcellini worked in a book store. He dreamed of becoming a writer. He ended up at Google in 2009. Espinosa, 27, was working in a bicycle shop before he was hired as a test driver two years ago . Stephanie Villegas, 28, was a swim instructor, before becoming a test driver. Other test drivers were former soldiers and former photographers. They all share at least one thing in common: spotless driving records. Besides this, the job also requires a combination of good judgment, patience and fearlessness.

　　Before they are entrusted (托付) with the cars，Google’s test drivers must complete three-week training courses. The drivers are taught to take control of the robot car whenever there is any moment of doubt or danger.

　　Google employs “dozens” of test drivers but won't reveal the precise number . California law requires two test drivers per vehicle.

　　32. What do you know about Brian Torcellini ?

　　A. He is in charge of a crew of test drivers. B. He used to be a swim instructor.

　　C. He led a secret Google project. D. He has technical backgrounds.

　　33. The driver sitting in the front passenger seat is responsible for .

　　A. fixing the car problems B. driving in emergencies

　　C. recording the car problems D. monitoring the car driver

　　34. We can infer that .

　　A. Stephanie Villegas is interested in scuba diving B. Brian Torecellini is very fond of literature

　　C. Espinosa is an excellent cyclist in California D. driverless cars are very popular in California

　　35. The underlined word “this” refers to .

　　A. having good judgments B. having clean driving records

　　C. breaking the traffic rules D. having technical backgrounds

　　E

　　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。

　　Tips for Teaching Kids Responsibility

　　Your best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked. Your cousin has a one-year-old child that puts her bottle in the sink when she finishes the milk, but no reminders are needed. 36 Raising helpful, good kids who know how to make a sandwich is not a fantasy! The following tips can give you a better chance of raising a responsible child who then grows into a responsible adult.

　　37 You can’t suddenly spring responsibility on a teenager and expect he will know how to follow through. He needs time to practice and totally understand what responsibility means.

　　Let kids help you. Don t complain when it's time to do housework. Smile and invite your son to help. 38 He will take these good feelings and learn to take ownership of his home and feel pride in keeping it up.

　　39 Make responsibilities age appropriate. You can show how to complete small tasks in daily life and perform them at a child’s skill level. For example, if your kid wants a snack, show him where the apples are and how to wash one off.

　　Teach your child consequences. Learning to take care of his things also helps a child develop a sense of responsibility for his actions. Get your son to clean up after an art project, and inform him that he won^ be able to play with his crayons the next day if he leaves a messy table. 40 The more you carry out the rules, the more likely he is to clean up without being asked.

　　A. Have a sense of responsibility.

　　B. Why do they make a sandwich for kids?

　　C. Show kids how to perform responsibility.

　　D. Where do these wonderful children come from?

　　E. Start to teach responsibility to kids early.

　　F. When your child is invited to participate, he feels valued.

　　G. Then take away his supplies if he does not take his responsibility.

　　作文范文

　　Dear Editor,

　　Tm Li Hua, a Senior 3 student. I feel it a great honor to get involved in such a meaningful activity. My favorite saying is “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out” by Robert Collier. It tells us that success is the result of continuous hard work.

　　As far as I am concerned, no one can achieve success easily. Many people succeeded because they made extraordinary efforts. It was their persistence that finally led to success. Take the Curies for example. When they were researching into radioactivity, they did experiment after experiment. They worked hard all day long with less modem equipment. They didn't give up easily in the face of failure. Instead they kept on trying. Finally, they discovered radium after years of hard work.

　　So if we want to succeed, we must make persistent efforts. I am sure our hard work will pay off.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Hua
