2020 年天津市红桥区高中毕业生学业考试模拟(二模)英语试题
第一节:阅读表达(共 5 个小题,每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)
阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
When I was in school, the class I dreaded most was my eighth grade art class. The teacher put down my
every attempt at completing an assignment. I simply couldn’t produce art the way she wanted it. Luckily, I’d
already proven myself in other creative areas. Yet, that art teacher was successful in convincing me that I had no
talent for painting, drawing, or anything related to them. Imagine my surprise when I published my nature
photography and became a volunteer art teacher!
Unfortunately, my story is all too familiar to many people who come through my workshops and practice.
Even more unfortunately, the vast majority of people were so discouraged in childhood that they cut off the
creative impulse (冲动) in most areas of their lives. Their teachers, parents, or classmates convinced them they
had no talent, so they gave up. The pain of failure was simply too great.
Why have we forgotten creativity is an experience, not a result? Let’s consider why we express creativity in
first place. To be creative is to be human. Everything we’ve at our disposal (处理) is the result of someone’s
creative expression and willingness to take a risk. Even so, for creativity to flower and feel free of encumbrance
(累赘), it needs to be about the joyful moments spent creating, not just about what we’ve to show for those
moments. Whatever pattern you need to break, try to make it about the pleasure and not about the outcome.
Therefore, I’d urge you to curb your perfectionism not enthusiasm! Perfectionism is the leading killer of
artistic expression. Relax a little and bring back your childlike nature when you create. Children instinctively (本
能地) know how to give over to the joy --- until someone teaches them otherwise! Let your creation be whatever
it wants to be. See if it can lead you rather than the other way around. Let your unconsciousness come through,
and let the expression of yourself be beautiful regardless of how it compares to anything else. After all, it’s yours,
and no one but you could create it!

57. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? (no more than 10 words)
58. Please explain the underlined word “curb” in English. (no more than 5 words)

57. Creativity is an experience, not a result.

58. Limit. / Control. / Hold. / Keep...within limits. / Keep...under control.

60. Open.

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。作者通过自己的亲身经历:八年级时美术老师成功地让他相信,他没有绘画以及与它有
关的任何东西的天赋。然而,后来他却成功的出版了自己的自然摄影作品,并成为了一名志愿艺术教师。
来说明创造力是一种经验而不是一种结果。我们应该享受创造的过程,找回自己的童真的本性。
【56 题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Yet, that art teacher was successful in convincing me that I had no talent for painting,
drawing, or anything related to them.然而,那位美术老师成功地让我相信,我没有绘画以及与它有关的任何
3
东西的天赋。” 可知“His teacher discouraged him and said he had no talent for art” 符合语境。 故填 His
teacher discouraged him and said he had no talent for art. Or: His teacher convinced him that he had no talent for
art.
【57 题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Why have we forgotten creativity is an experience, not a result? Let’s consider why we
express creativity in first place. 为什么我们忘记了创造力是一种经验而不是一种结果。”可知“We should
enjoy being creative 我们应该享受创造的过程。”符合语境。故填 Creativity is an experience, not a result. Or:
We should enjoy being creative.
【58 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文“Perfectionism is the leading killer of artistic expression. 完美主义是艺术表现 头号杀
手。”可知第四段第一句 “Therefore, I’d urge you to curb your perfectionism not enthusiasm! 因此,我们应
该督促自己去“控制”我们的完美主义思想。” 故填 Limit. / Control. / Hold. / Keep...within limits. /
Keep...under control。
【59 题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Relax a little and bring back your childlike nature when you create. 当你创作的时候,放松
一点,找回你童真的本性。”可知“The childlike nature of creativity.” 符合语境。故填 The childlike nature of
creativity.
【60 题详解】
开放题。题目意为:作为学生,你觉得你更有创造力吗?请举个例子。Different people have different ideas.
不同的人有不同的答案。所以,你可以填 Yes, perhaps I am. I used to draw a lot of imaginative pictures in
childhood. Or: Yes, I often make some interesting handmade things by myself。
【点睛】阅读表达中的开放性问题这种题型是主观性试题。要求考生根据文章涉及的问题,结合个人的观
点、经验来回答。此类问题的解答比较容易,考生可根据自己的观点选择较容易回答的来回答。回答此题
时必须回答完整,即怎么问就怎么答。注意别出现语法错误。如文中第 5 小题,题目用的是一般疑问句,
所以一定不能丢了 yes or no。

阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
I have a friend named John Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧马场)in San Ysidro. The last time I was
there he shared a story with me. “It is a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant (流动的) horse
trainer. When he was a senior,he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew
up.”
“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote
about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch,showing the location of all the
buildings,the stables and the track.”
“The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page
was a large red F with a note that read, ‘See me after class.’”
“The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I receive an F?’”
“The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come
from an itinerant family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy
the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you’ll have to pay large stud fees. There‘s no
way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will
reconsider your grade.’”
“The boy went home and asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to
make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’”
“Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He
stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.’”
John continued, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still
have that school paper framed over the fireplace.” He added, “If I had changed my paper at that time, maybe we
would not have the chance to be here talking about the dreams.”
56. What was the boy’s goal described in his seven-page paper? (No more than 8 words)
57. Why did the teacher give the boy an “F”? (No more than 15 words)
58. How did the boy’s father respond to his son’s puzzlement? (No more than10 words)
5
59. What does the underlined word “unrealistic” in Para.5 mean? (1word)
60. What can we learn from the article? (No more than 20 words.)
答案
56. Owning a horse ranch. / His goal was to own a horse ranch. / To own a horse ranch.
57. Because the teacher thought the boy’s dream unrealistic. / Because the teacher thought it was an unrealistic
dream for a young boy.
58. He comforted and encouraged his son. / By encouraging him to make decision (make up his mind) himself.
59. Unpractical/Impractical/Unreasonable.
60. (Open.)
Never give up dreams easily. / As long as we stick to our dream and work hard for it, we will surely realize our
dream.

阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi. Here’s what happened. I got into a
taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when, all of sudden, a black car
jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver had to brake(刹车) immediately, and missed the
other car’s back end by just inches!
The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver
just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean he was friendly. So, I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy
almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call “The
Law of the Garbage Truck. ”
Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and
full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it. And if you let them, they’ll dump
it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well,
and move on. You’ll be happy with what you did.
6
Started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their
garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets? It was that day I said, “I’m not going
to do anymore.”
Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting. Good parents know they have to welcome
their children home from school with hugs and kisses. Leaders and parents know that they have to be fully
present, and at their best for the people they care about. The bottom line is that successful people do not let
Garbage Trucks take over their day.

阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
At Manhattan’s PS 140 students in Tony Paulino’s middle school Spanish classes are exploring the geography,
economics, and culture of South America, all without leaving their classroom.
They’re using the Internet to follow the One Road South team of adventures on a 14-month bicycle trip around
the continent. Through a program called Reach the World, kids at 60 of the city’s elementary and middle schools
are getting a taste of global citizenship by following the One Road South bikers, a family traveling in Europe, a
bike trek(艰苦跋涉) in Africa, and a Harlem teacher working with scientists in Antarctica through online videos,
journals, and field notes.
Sometimes, students even get to meet the travelers they are following online. Three of the four One Road
South bicyclists recently visited Paulino’s classes present a slide show about the places they plan to visit.
The students jumped in with questions, asking if the travelers were afraid of wild animals, running out of
food, or going for 14 months without having a girlfriend.
But Reach the World isn’t just for fun. The program aims to integrate(使融入) technology into the classroom,
to bring subjects like science and social studies to life, and to encourage students to think of themselves as global
citizens, according to administrators.
Their teacher, Tony Paulino, said his students are beside themselves with excitement about following the
One Road South bikers. “I believe it speaks to the core desire we all share, to dream, to travel and to explore,” he
said.

阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
1. Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (路沟) along the highway I tr avel
daily to work.
2. There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I’ve noticed that it blooms only
in the morning hours, for the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I
see those beautiful flowers.
3. This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while
doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditches

would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, “I’ll
stop on my way home and dig them.” “Gee, I don’t want to get my good cl othes dirty…” Whatever the
reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding shovel (铲子) one year for my
trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.[
4. One day on my way home from work, I was saddened to see that the highway department had
moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, “Way to go, you waited too
long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.”
5. A week ago we were shocked to know that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor (脑瘤晚

as close as we all would have liked.
6. I couldn’t help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between
my husband’s sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful
memories that will bloom every year for us.

garden.
