(2024·山西太原五校高三質(zhì)量檢測)
Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves，and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone，compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特權(quán)階層)，it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?
Traditionally，people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with
the Romans，who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe，drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However，in America，where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new，the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.
Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion，as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant，and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful micro-organisms.Chlorine，as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water，can leave behind an unpleasant taste.
1．Which of the following statements is true?
A．Bottled water was once drunk both by the rich and the poor.
B．Bottled water sales have risen，for it’s cheaper than tap water.
C．Europeans believed in the power of treatment of mineral water.
D．Americans have had the habit of drinking bottled water for long.
2．People prefer bottled water because________.
A．it does good to their health
B．it has chlorine to make it taste good
C．it contains no mineral pollution at all
D．it’s a practice originated with the Romans
3．The underlined word “contaminants” most probably means________.
A．pollutants
B．micro-organisms
C．chemicals D．minerals
4．Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A．How Bottled Water Originated
B．“Taking the Waters” Has Been Practiced for Long
C．What’s the Safe Alternative to Tap Water
D．Why Bottled Water Sales Increase

(2024·石家莊名校高三模擬考試)
For anyone who is determined to be a fashion designer，it is not enough to have succeeded in college.The real test is whether they can survive，and become established during their early 20s，making a name for themselves in the real world where business skills can be as important as talent and creativity.
Fashion is a hard business.There is a continuous amount of stress because work is at a constant and extremely fast speed to prepare for the next season’s collections.It is extremely competitive and there is the constant need to make attractive advertisements of the latest fashion in newspapers and magazines.It also requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy.“We try to warn people before they come to us about how tough it is.” says Lydia Kemeny，Head of Fashion at St.Martin’s School of Art in London.“And we point out that drive and determination are absolutely necessary.”
This may seem far removed from the popular opinions of fashionable young people spending their time designing pretty dresses.That may well be what they do in their first year of study but a good college won’t be slow in introducing students to commercial realities，“We don’t walk our foot on the blossoming flower of creativity but in the second year we start introducing the restrictions
of price，producing
ability，marketing and so on.”
Almost all fashion design is done to a brief.It is not a form of self-expression as such，although there is certainly room for imagination and creativity.Most young designers are going to end up as employees of a producer or a fashion house and they still need to be able to work within the characteristic style of their employer.Even those students who are most modern in their own taste of clothes may need to adapt to produce designs which are right for the mainstream of the market.They also have to be able to work at both the expensive and the cheap end of the market and the challenge to produce good design inexpensively may well be demanding.
5．Which of the following is mainly discussed in the passage?
A．Talent in fashion.
B．Good marks at college.
C．Ability to create new designs.
D．Business skills in fashion industry.
6．What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A．Fashion designers are highly motivated and really detemined.
B．Good preparations for the next season can reduce stress.
C．Consumers’ appetite for new ideas keeps changing.
D．Advertisement business is very competitive.
7．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．Lydia Kemeny’s opinion.
B．The competitive business world.
C．The warning to the young designers.
D．The real situation in fashion industry.
8．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．St.Martin’s School of Art encourages the new students to design dresses they like.
B．St.Martin’s School of Art requires students to develop their creativity in their designing.
C．St.Martin’s School of Art demands students to make pretty dresses for companies.
D．St.Martin’s School of Art focuses
on teaching students commercial realities.
答案：
課時作業(yè)(三十九)
Ⅰ.單項填空
1．解析： 考查冠詞用法。句意為：這次事故把他變成了一個不同的人，即使起初他并沒有意識到這一點。第一空表示泛指，故用不定冠詞a；at the beginning意為“從一開始”，是固定短語，所以第二空用定冠詞the。
答案： D
2．解析： 考查句子結(jié)構(gòu)。句意為：當(dāng)你離開教室時務(wù)必要關(guān)掉所有的燈。主句是一個祈使句，故D項正確。
答案： D
3．解析： 考查時態(tài)。句意為：外面雨下得很大。但是下課結(jié)束時，雨已經(jīng)停了。此處是by the time引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句，表示“到……為止”，后面通常接過去完成時或者將來完成時，根據(jù)語境可知，此處雨停下來的動作發(fā)生在下課結(jié)束之前，故用過去完成時。
答案： A
4．解析： reach a compromise達成了妥協(xié)。
答案： C
5．解析： 句意為：“媒體強烈譴責(zé)醉酒司機的行為。”“他該受罰。”condemn譴責(zé)，符合句意。inspect檢查；視察；calculate計算；praise表揚。
答案： B
6．解析： 考查短語和代詞。be superior to比……好；第二個空代指一個3G手機。
答案： A
7．解析： 考查動詞時態(tài)。由語境知，在公司派他去澳大利亞之前，他在這里僅僅待了三天。此處直接表述過去存在的狀態(tài)，故用一般過去時。
答案： A
8．解析： 句意為：杰克遜先生的職業(yè)使他不得不犧牲和家人在一起的時間。A項“承認，答謝，告知收悉”，B項“容許”，C項“譴責(zé)，宣判，迫使……接受困境(或不愉快的狀況)”，D項“提醒”。
答案： C
9．解析： 句意為：我對于我們在一起的那些日子的記憶絕不會慢慢忘記的。fade out(畫面的)逐漸模糊。
答案： C
10．解析： 考查代詞用法。句意為：調(diào)查表明晚育的女人比早育的女人更幸福。此處的those代指women，giving early childbirth是后置定語。

11．解析： 句意為：從對電影業(yè)的影響看，詹姆斯·卡梅隆被認為是世界上最偉大的導(dǎo)演之一。in exchange for交換；in spite of不管，不顧；on behalf of代表；in terms of說到，談到，從……方面看。
答案： D
12．解析： 考查狀語從句的省略。完整結(jié)構(gòu)為：if they are well prepared，...。be well prepared準備好。主從句主語一致，且從句中含有be，可將從句的主語與be省略。
答案： A
13．解析： 句意為：幸運的是大火剛一發(fā)生就有碰巧路過的人報了火警。在此，immediately是連詞，引導(dǎo)狀語從句，表示“一……就”。
答案： C
14．解析： try one’s fortune at doing sth.碰運氣做某事。若選B項，應(yīng)用try one’s best to do sth.。
答案： A
15．解析： 句意為：幫助那些有困難的人他從來都不猶豫，因為他是一個善良的人。否定詞＋hesitate to do sth.意為“毫不遲疑地做某事”。故選C項。
