Coral reefs (珊瑚礁) are not just beautiful to look at, but also very useful. They shelter
nearly 25% of ocean life and provide food for billions of people. However, like many other
species, this amazing ecosystem (生态系统) is in danger of dying out!
There are two main reasons for the destruction — the rising carbon dioxide levels
caused by global warming as well as human influences like bottom operation. While not
much can be done about the former, the loss caused by the latter can be reduced.
Bottom operation involves dropping nets to the ocean bed and then dragging them up
when filled with fish. This action damaged the ocean floor, causing the coral branches to
separate from the reefs. While that is very discouraging, the good news is that if these
branches are found quickly, they can be saved. At present, that work is being performed by
volunteer divers. But the method has only limited success because they cannot stay long
underwater, nor reach depths of over 200 meters where some of the deep-sea coral grows.高三英语试题 第 3页 共 9页
However, this is not the case for Coralbotsv— the robots that can constantly seek out
broken branches. A team of ‘coral bots’, each individually working to simple rules will piece
together damaged bits of coral, allowing them to regrow. They are programmed to be able
to distinguish between other things and the coral. The robots work together in groups,
similar to bees. If one coralbot is damaged, then the others will still be able to complete
the task.
Dr Lea-Anne Henry said: “The project of using coralbots offers us the possibility to
restore ( 修 复 ) the function of reefs. It is in the final stage of testing. Once ready, the
researchers hope to build hundreds of them and use them effectively in the waters off
Scotland and then hopefully in the oceans across the world.”
4. Which of the following is a cause of the danger that coral reefs are facing?
A. The appearance of new creatures. B. The seriously polluted sea water.
C. The activities of volunteer divers. D. Human activities like bottom operation.
5. Compared with volunteer divers, coralbots ______________.
A. can stay longer underwater B. must work as bees do
C. can distinguish what is coral D. can never be damaged
6. What does the underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Coralbots. B. Broken branches.
C. working bees. D. Bits of coral.
7. We can infer from the passage that _______________.
A. bottom operation has affected most underwater creatures
B. broken branches of coral can regrow if saved in time
C. hundreds of the coralbots have worked well in the oceans
D. with the coralbots all damaged coral reefs can be restored

I’m a student in my third year at Robert Gordon University, but I also work 35 hours a
week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. The
work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking (码放) shelves. I am lucky because the
amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weight I lift in the gym. I know I have the
strength to bear it.
I am originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven. Money was always tight. My
parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money for luxuries. I worked hard at
school though and, with the help of professors, I got the best A-level grades in my class.高三英语试题 第 4页 共 9页
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled "British residential status the Home
Office waited until I was in sixth form to approve my application. That meant I was not
eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job
that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.
I don’t have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, Id like to have more time
to study so I can excel at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isn’t new
for me. Growing up, my parents cultivated in me the importance of working hard for what I
want in life.
My dream is to get a job in the NHS. But now, I’m just focused on trying to get the best
grades I can. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future.
8. Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week?
A. To pay for his own living expenses. B. To pay for his tuition fees.
C. To prove his ability to earn money. D. To help his parents pay off the debts
9. What does the underlined word “eligible” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Responsible. B. Anxious. C. Qualified. D. Accessible.
10. Which of the following can NOT be used to describe the author?
A. Persistent B. Diligent C. Sociable D. Ambitious
11. Which proverb can best summarize the passage?
A. Actions speak louder than words. B. God help those who help the themselves.
C. A penny saved is a penny earned. D. Where there is life, there is hope.
D
I have two kids, a boy and a girl. I don’t worry about my girl; I’m sure she’ll be well
trained in mixed martial arts. I worry about my son. I’m pretty sure he’s going to be feminine
(女性化的). Sorry to say that, but let’s face it. No dad wants his son to go feminine.
At the rate we’re moving in a couple of years you won’t be able to tell the difference
between boys and girls. Sound extreme? Think about this. In every movie where advanced
time-traveling beings come to our planet, there’s one constant: You can’t tell the male aliens
from the female aliens!
But that’s the future. Kids today are soft and fat. People ask why. Is it junk food? No.
Junk food has been around for fifty years. Is it video games? No. Video games have been
around for thirty years. None of the kids playing them back in the day were terribly obese.
We’re all scratching our heads trying to figure out what we’ve introduced to society to ruin
our kids. But it’s not anything we’ve added that has ruined our kids. It’s stuff we’ve gotten
rid of.高三英语试题 第 5页 共 9页
Take the gym rope for example. Remember that thing that stretched from the floor to the
ceiling in your gym class that you could never climb? Most of the kids couldn’t make it to the
top. But that wasn’t the point; the point was you had to try while some middle-aged guy who
couldn’t make it up a flight of stairs shouted at you. We should have put our son on that rope,
and given him a head start. But we didn’t want to shame the boy, so we took it down.
Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But they’re
everywhere. You just can’t see them. They’re in every goal unrealized and expectation not
met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you weren’t supposed to make it to the top.
It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid.
12. What is the example of aliens used to show?
A. Girls are growing like boys.
B. Boys are going feminine.
C. There are really time-traveling beings.
D. Alien movies are popular with children.
13. What causes kids today to be soft and fat?
A. Junk food. B. Video games.
C. Stuff introduced to society. D. Things removed from society.
14. How does the author find teenagers today?
A. They have too much dignity. B. They are overprotected.
C. They are less independent. D. They are thought too highly of.
15. What does the rope probably symbolize?
A. Goals. B. Expectations. C. Competition. D. Assistance.

项为多余选项。
Everyone wants to achieve happiness and smile. 16 How do we find real
happiness and smile? By getting rich? In case you are scratching your head, looking for some
reasons or ideas to be happy. Here are a few.
Throw an impromptu (即兴的) party. 17 An impromptu one increases the joy to a
new level. And of course making other people happy is bound to have the same effect on
you.
Treat yourself. Sometimes all it takes to make one happy is a little indulgence (放纵). So,
go ahead and grab a cup of coffee and sit inside a blanket with a good book! You will be
surprised at how happy it makes you.高三英语试题 第 6页 共 9页
18 Happiness can be transformed! When we feel happy and excited, it can lift the
spirits of others. Your simple gesture can transform a person’s day and get him or her
prepared to take on any challenge.
Have a conversation with a parent. If you are like most kids, you possibly spend more
time texting or surfing the Internet than talking to your family. 19 You will be surprised
at the feeling of joy that it brings to you.
Finally, don’t forget to be happy every day! While International Day of Happiness may
come about only once a year, happiness is around you all day and night. 20
A. You just have to seek it out and grab it.
B. Most of your family members show no interest in texting or the Internet.
C. But life is hard, so it is very difficult to find real happiness and smile.

续写的词数应为 150 左右。
It was the first day of our new grade. Everyone in the classroom was chatting happily,
excited to see each other again after the long holidays. When the door slid open, all of us
stopped talking and turned to look. In came our teacher Ms. Sullivan, followed by an
ordinary-looking boy,
“This boy’s name is Rafael.” Ms. Sullivan announced. “He’s a transfer student(转校生),
and he’s going to be in our class starting from today. Make sure all of you welcome him
warmly.”
The class clapped. But I didn't want to have a second look at the newcomer, for he had
no outstanding qualities considering his small figure and casual T-shirt.
“Oh, I forgot to mention one thing.” Ms. Sullivan spoke up. “Rafael actually has hearing
problems. Normally he would have hearing aids on, but his old ones have just been broken.高三英语试题 第 9页 共 9页
His doctor suggested that he stay at home until he got his new ones. However, Rafael insisted
on attending his first day of school. So if you want to communicate with him, you have to
write it on a piece of paper.”
This single speech sent the whole class up into an uproar (嘈杂). Some students looked
at each other with expressions of surprise. Others voiced cries of concern out of pity.
Ms. Sullivan calmed everyone down. “I’d like someone to personally help him out
throughout the day. Do I have any volunteers?”
“How can a disabled person be intelligent?” I thought to myself. I refused to raise my
hand, expecting someone else would. But nobody did or said anything. Dead silence spread
across the classroom.
It was by total bad luck that my eyes happened to meet Ms. Sullivan's.
“How about you, James?” She asked me. “Is it okay for you to take care of Rafael just
for today?”
It is difficult to refuse a request by someone, especially if that person is a teacher. I
sighed and nodded slightly. Ms. Sullivan gestured for Rafael to sit beside me and then asked
us to share our holiday stories with the class.
Paragraph 1:
Immediately, the class became excited. _______________________________________

Then Rafael rose and walked onto the platform. ________________________________
