B Macinley Butson was just 16 years old when she first had the idea to try and protect women from more — than — necessary radiation during breast cancer treatments—and now, her invention could be a game-changer in the medical field. Butson, whose father works in medical physics, has always been interested in science. But she only began researching the harmful side effects of radiation treatment after her father discussed his experience with ineffective cancer treatments in his work. Since Butson had also recently lost a relative to breast cancer, she felt inspired to conduct her own research on the subject. She tried to begin her medical research by consulting scientific journals, but she found their academic terms almost impossible to understand. She then turned to the internet to find videos that taught how to read scientific journals. As she went deeper in her research, she stumbled upon a key bit of information: copper （铜）has been shown to be effective at protecting skin from radiation. An idea hit this Australian teen as she was viewing a film on medieval wars in her 10th grade history class. When she saw the scaled （鳞片） patterns of the mail （盔甲），she was inspired to create a wearable protective tool out of copper. She then headed back online and watched videos on how to put together tiny scales. She made her own flexible scale-mail which she now calls SMART: Scale Mail for Radiation Therapy. When her invention was tested in a laboratory setting, it reduced surface exposure to unnecessary radiation by 75%. And now Butson is working on getting her SMART into clinical settings for use. 24. Why did Macinley Butson start her research? A. To assist her father with his work. B. To save her relative from cancer. C. To publish some articles in journals. D. To find effective ways to treat cancer. 25. What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon" in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Came across. B. Missed. C. Passed on. D. Required. 26. Where did Macinley Buston get inspiration for her invention? A. Videos online. B. Scientific journals. C. History textbooks. D. Soldiers* defensive clothes. 27. Which of the following best describes Macinley Buston? A. Stubborn. B. Creative. C. Selfless. D. Considerate. C Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word '“yoga" comes from Sanskrit （梵文）and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga. Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It's not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners （从业者）passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago. Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience. In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non- communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep. 2 8. Why did the United Nations set the International Day of Yoga? A. To promote the research into Sanskrit. B. To help people know more about India. C. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide. D. To give a declaration on cultural diversity. 29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The principles of yoga. B. The history of yoga. C. The benefits of yoga. D. An Indian yoga master. 30. What will you choose if you're looking for a challenging exercise? A. Hatha yoga. B. Kundalini yoga. C. Bikram yoga. D. Ashtanga yoga. 31 . What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Physical inactivity causes deadly diseases・ B. Yoga can help prevent communicable diseases. C. Little or no exercise puts people's health at risk. D. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases. D Around 45% of plastic waste is recycled annually in the UK and is on the increase. However, one of the problems with present plastic recycling methods is that you end up with a lower-quality plastic with worse properties （特性）than the original. This means that plastic drink bottles cannot simply be recycled into new drink bottles continuously, but instead are used for other lower-grade products like park benches. Now, British scientists have developed a new method of chemical recycling. They use lower temperatures and more environmentally-friendly starting chemicals than previous methods to turn plastics back into their constituent chemical molecules （分子）.In this way, they can be used to make new plastics of the same quality as the original. "Most plastic is now recycled using mechanical methods, where they are transformed into liquids before being made into something new," said a professor named Matthew Jones. "The problem is, melting plastic changes its properties and reduces the quality. OUT method of chemical recycling overcomes this problem. Then plastics can be used all over again without losing any properties?" The researchers are recycling some kinds of plastics, including plant-based PLA, a plastic used for food packaging and PET, which is used for drink bottles. So far, the technology has only been demonstrated on a small range. However, scientists are now working to produce larger quantities of starting chemicals. "There is no single solution to the problem of plastic waste — the approach has to be a combination of reducing, reusing and recycling. Our method of chemical recycling could allow carbon to be recycled endlessly rather than digging more up from the ground in the form of fossil fuels, or letting it into the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas," said Dr. Paul McKeown from the University of Bath. 32. What is the problem with the present plastic recycling? A. The quality of recycled plastics declines. B. Plastic drink bottles cannot be recycled. C. The amount of plastic waste is increasing. D. Recycled lower-grade products sell badly. 33. How do scientists recycle plastic waste with the new method? A. By transforming it into fuels. B. By heating it into liquid state. C. By keeping its original properties. D. By changing its molecule structure. 34. What can we learn from what Dr. Paul McKeown said? A. Fossil fuels are endless resources. B. The plastic waste problem has no solution. C. Recycled carbon leads to greenhouse gases. D. The chemical recycling is environment-friendly. 35. In which part of the website can we find the text? A. Business. B. Tech & Science. C. Lifestyle. D. Arts & Culture 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 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。 While marathon study sessions may be unavoidable sometimes, do your best to manage your time effectively. Reduce your workload by studying more efficiently. Before you start studying, always read your task sheet to make sure you're focusing on the right topics. 36 This saves you time looking it up. Finally, pick out the most important information, so you can study it first. 37 Make sure you have everything you need, so you won't need to get up every few minutes to get something. Neatly place your textbooks, pens, notebook and other study materials in your study space. This way you can easily get what you need without taking an unplanned break. Plan out your study sessions in advance. Think about the time you'll need for each task, add 10% extra time for insurance, and then schedule blocks for your tasks. 38 Remember to include short breaks every hour or so. Break up difficult tasks into smaller steps. Tasks such as "Study for History Final" or "Write Term Paper” can seem unapproachable. Instead of getting confused and upset, divide big tasks into small ones If you're studying for a final of a course, start by looking over past tests and quizzes. 39 Smaller study tasks may also include creating outlines that summarize textbook chapters. Do your best to space out your study sessions instead of cramming （突击）.Whenever possible, give yourself time to study a little bit at a time. It's better to study for 3 separate 3-hour sessions instead of 1 marathon 9-hour session. 40 A. Choose a quiet spot for studying. B. Prepare your area before you start studying. C. Schedule your toughest and most important tasks first. D. Study difficult subjects first to get them out of the way. E. Then divide the course into its units, and study one unit at a time. F. Additionally, ask your instructor to explain any topic that confuses you. G. Multiple shorter sessions will help you remember more information in the long run. 第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。 I was once the guide on a wildlife-photography trip to the North Pole, where wildlife is 41 .

It is certain 61 being under quarantine is no fun. However, with our access to food, 62 (deliver) services and the entertainment 63 (offer) by the internet, we're actually very lucky. Let's take a quick look at the history of quarantines. The idea of quarantining sick people dates 64 ancient times. Yet the word "quarantine" first came into use in the 14th century Europe during the Black Death. People were dropping like flies from the mysterious disease, and as the death toll climbed into the millions—eventually killing 65 (approximate) half of the European population, cities began to take 66 (measure) to protect their citizens. The port city of Venice, Italy, was an important trading center with ships 67 (come) from all corners of the Earth every day. If a ship 68 (suspect) to be harboring the plague (瘟疫)，it was sent to 69 offshore quarantine and ordered to wait there for 40 days when those abroad either recovered, or 70 (likely), died. The waiting period gave rise to the term quarantinario, from the Italian word for 40. 第四部分写作(共两节，满分 35 分) 第一节短文改错(共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分) 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共 有 10 处语言 错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。 删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。 修改:在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。 2.只允许修改 10 处，多者(从第 11 处起)不计分。 Dear Jim, How is everything going?

There were so many dark clouds in the sky. M: Yeah, I thought it might rain, but it didn't. Actually, it was better than when it's sunny, because we could see the ball more easily. (Text 2) M: We saw a big grey bird. Grandad said that type of bird usually lives near rivers. W: And were you near a river when you saw it? M: No. We were still in town. It was on top of a house. But there was a river and trees in a park nearby. (Text 3) W: I just couldn't do the English homework last night. I really don't like it when we have to do things like writing a story. M: Oh, I love writing stories. It's nice to be creative now and then. (Text 4) W: What about these shoes, Jonathan? M: They're really nice, but isn't £35 quite expensive? We usually only spend about £25. W: Look at these others — they're £15, but they're not as good. M: Yeah, I see what you mean. OK, we'll get the ones you suggest. (Text 5) M: Are you going to watch that singing competition on TV later tonight? W: I'd like to, but Mum might want to watch the other channel! M: And did you see the talk show last night? W: No, I missed it. And I'm really looking forward to the program about street dancing. (Text 6) W: Finally! The weekend is here. I can't wait. M: Me neither. So Maggie, what are you doing? Do you have any fun plans? W: Yes, I do! I'm going to the organic farm tomorrow morning with my mother. M: An organic farm? What for? W: My mum and I are picking apples. I want to learn how to make apple pie, and my mum's going to teach me. What about you, David? Are you doing anything interesting? M: Oh, I'm going to the science museum. There's a robot exhibit there. It's a two-day exhibition and it's displaying some robots that appeared in early science fiction films. W: Cool! (Text 7) W: You're a fan of the Star Wars movies, right? When did the first one come out? M: It came out on May 25th, 1977. W: How do you remember that so clearly? That's more than 40 years ago! M: I'm a huge fan! There were a lot of science fiction movies in the late 1970s because of Star Wars. W: And when did the next two movies come out? M: The Empire Strikes back came out in 1980 and Return of the Jedi came out in 1983. But then there was a long gap until the next one. Fans had to wait for 16 years until The Phantom Menace. There were no movies from 1984 to 1998. (Text 8) M: Hi, Jane. How are the preparations going for the business trip next month? W: Hello, Robert. We're just finishing the presentation. I'm going to book the flight later. 4 M: Great. If you book the flights online, they'll be cheaper. How are we going to get to the airport? W: I'm not sure yet. If we get a taxi or a bus in the morning, it will be the rush hour. I think it will be quicker if we take the underground. M: Good idea. And the hotel? Have you booked one? W: Yes, I've reserved rooms at the Ritz. M: Is there anything else we need to arrange? W: We should make sure we have business cards. If we meet any potential customers, we can give them one. Oh, and remember to keep all your receipts. The company will pay for all your meals and travel. (Text 9) W: The problem is that too many people create too much waste. M: Yes, you're right, Carol. If everyone recycled more, we'd reduce a lot of waste. I mean, look at the amount of paper we waste in this office. It's crazy. W: Exactly, Alex. And coffee cups, too. M: Yes, right. If we recycled our paper and the paper cups, we'd save a lot of waste. W: That's right. And don't forget plastic. Nobody recycles their plastic water bottles. Let's do something. M: Well, I would take the plastic bottles to the recycling center. And I'll make a collection box which people can put their water bottles in. W: I'll make two collection boxes for paper and cans. If we put them in the kitchen, people will see them. We'd save a lot of waste. We're going to make a difference. (Text 10) M: Right, everybody, let's get started. I'd like to welcome you all to your new university. Even though you haven't started classes yet, you'll have a very busy first two weeks here. For example, you have probably noticed the number of groups and associations asking you to join them. There are sports clubs such as football, basketball, and tennis. Moreover, there are more academic clubs. The history club, for example, meets once a week and takes trips to interesting places as well as inviting guest speakers to talk. I'd advise that you look around all of the clubs before joining any because you have to pay to be a member of most of them and you don't want to run out of money in your first week! Next, I have to tell you about the process of registering for your courses. First, you have to go to the university administration building to get your registration documents. Don't forget to take your ID. Secondly, take your document to see the head of the department of each course that you want to take. You'll find the room numbers for each class on the registration document. Besides, remember to get a book list for each course when you see the head of the department. Finally, return the completed document to the university administration building. You will then be given a library card. If you have any problems with accommodation, please go to the secretary office, not your academic department. I think that's all. 附 2： 2020 年石家庄市高三英语阶段训练题选材资源 1.

After two days of travel on a small passenger ship along the harsh and icy coast, we reached Hornsund ford on the southern tip of Spitsbergen island. Wildlife is abundant in this remote and fragile area and we were looking for seals and polar bears. When we anchored the boat at the ford ice, we spotted several seals resting on the ice, but no polar bears. I thought I'd try to get a picture of a seal as it came up for breath at a hole in the ice. I placed my camera and a motion sensor near the edge of a hole. The plan was that the motion sensor would fire the camera when the seal poked its head into the air. The image would capture the seal with the cold and hostile environment behind it. On the way back to the ship, I wondered whether I should have anchored the camera, just in case. But returning to the hole would have disturbed the seals further and possibly prevented me from getting the shot. I decided not to do it. Then, at two in the morning, a crew member woke us up. He had spotted a polar bear approaching in the distance under the midnight sun. We ran to the bow of the boat to see what would happen. At first the bear walked toward the boat. Then it turned and headed directly for my camera. I had long dreamed of taking a picture of a polar bear while it waited beside a breathing hole, hoping to grab a seal. I knew it would be a difficult photo to get, but here I could see it happening right in front of me, a dream very close to coming true. The motion sensor reacted to the bear's movement, triggering the camera to start taking pictures. The bear circled the camera, gently sniffing and ever licking it. Then the bear knocked the sensor onto the ice, grabbed the tripod, and tipped it and the camera into the hole. The camera hung from the sensor's cable. I prayed that it would stay that way so I could at least rescue the memory card containing the images. The bear must have heard me. It took the sensor's cable in its mouth and started backing away from the hole, pulling the camera out. Then the cable broke. My camera and the memory card with all those impossible — to — get close-ups of the polar bear disappeared more than 450 feet beneath the ice. That was the worst moment in my photography career. I did not sleep well for a long time afterward. I was so angry with myself. I couldn't let it go. I started playing with the crazy idea of rescuing the camera. I tried to find someone who would help me find it, but my colleagues in polar research told me that the camera had most likely sunk into the soft mud commonly found in front of glaciers. I almost gave up. A year later, I was asked to join a similar trip to the same spot on the same boat. I obtained permission to bring a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and a colleague to pilot it. We would try to find the camera. If we didn't succeed, I would know I had at least tried. Maybe I would then be able to stop thinking about that camera. I hate to give up. When we arrived back at Homsund 巧 ord, we were given only four hours for the operation due to the paying customers on board. There was a lot more fjord ice in front of the glacier than there had been on the previous trip, and we wondered whether it would be safe to walk so far from the boat. As I knew well, polar bears could be nearby. We decided to risk it. The ice was so thin that it bent beneath us. We almost turned back several times, but then we managed to find a safe route to where my camera had disappeared one year earlier. Now we just had to find it. We ran into technical difficulties almost immediately and had to pull the ROV out of the water twice. The water was murky, so we couldn't see to steer the ROV , and the tidal current was causing it to drift from the site. Our only chance of finding the camera was by landing the ROV on top of it, which seemed like a long shot. Then, like a miracle, on the third try the ROV found the camera. We shouted and danced around on the ice. Our celebration was premature. When we tried to grab the camera, the ROV's cable became tangled. The claw on the ROV's arm was less than an inch from the camera — close but not close enough to grab it. We could hear the arm scratch against the camera's sides. Then we lost control of the ROV The pilot was sure it was broken. I was even more frustrated than I had been the year before. I wondered if it would have been better if we had never found the camera at all. We retrieved the ROV and saw that the propellers were jammed with seaweed. We had just enough time for one more try. Amazingly we managed to place the ROV on the camera a second time. This time the claw clamped securely onto the tripod. We got the camera up on the ice, and I screamed as loudly as I could. The camera was corroded, but I managed to get the memory card out. I immediately put it into distilled freshwater to prevent further corrosion. I kept it there until I returned to the mainland. Then I contacted a company that retrieves lost electronic data in crime cases. They managed to retrieve all 149 of my photos. It was amazing to see them. I saw the polar bear breathing. I saw it licking the lens until the lens became blurry. I saw it prod the lens with its massive furry white paw. And, at the end, I saw the looming edge of the breathing hole. Retrieving that camera is by far the most satisfying accomplishment of my photography career. I have never experienced such a massive burst of adrenaline as I did when we pulled that camera out of the water and onto the ice. 8.语法填空选自：微信公众号 the Beijinger (2 月 8 日 )Brief History of Quarantines
