第三部分:阅读理解(共 20 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 50分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
A blocked airway can kill someone in three to four minutes, but it can take
more than eight minutes for an ambulance to arrive. So a simple procedure such as
opening someones airway can save their life while theyre waiting for
emergency medical help. This means youre more likely to give first aid to
someone you know than a stranger.
There are many misconceptions surrounding first aid. Below are the most
popular ones with details of what you should do.
Top four first aid misconceptions:
You should put butter or cream on a burn. The only thing you should put on a
burn is cold waterkeep the butter for cooking. Put the affected area under cold
running water for at least ten minutes.
The best way to treat bleeding is to put the wound under a tap. If you put a
bleeding wound under a tap, you wash away the body`s clotting agents(凝血剂)
and make it bleed more. Instead, put pressure on the wound with whatever is
available to stop or slow down the flow of blood. As soon as possible call 911.
Keep pressure on the wound until help arrives.
Nosebleeds are best treated by putting the head back. If you put the head back
during a nosebleed, all the blood goes down the back of the airway. Instead, advise
them to tilt(倾斜)their head forwards and ask them to pinch(捏)the end of
their nose and breathe through their mouth.
You need lots of training to do first aid. You dontwhat you mostly need is
common sense. You can learn enough first aid knowledge in a few minutes to save
someone`s lifewhether it`s from reading a book, attending a course or watching
videos online.
Remember that anyone can save a life.

A.keep his airway open
B.ensure the ambulance’s arriving time
C.keep the surroundings quiet
D.ask for emergency medical help immediately

Plastic bags are not costly to produce. They are also strong and easy to carry.
This is why they are a popular container in most parts of the world. But they are
also a major source of pollution. It can take hundreds of years for plastic bags to
break down. As they do, tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers and oceans.
Therefore, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.
Maryland artist Allita Irby does just that. It starts with the morning newspaper.
What is more important is getting that plastic bag the paper comes in. The mixed
media artist recognized its rich possibilities about three year ago. “As I was taking
the newspaper out, I felt the texture of these bags. They were soft. I just looked
down and realized it would take three to make a braid (辫子).” Since then, Irby has
been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.
Before incorporating plastic bags in her works, Irby used natural materials like
feathers, leather and dried plants. All those elements represent her Native American
ancestry (血统) and identity, like one of her works called “Navaho Bundles”.
Ms. Irby’s neighbors praised her ability to turn waste into treasure. Some, like
Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art using the used
plastic bags. “I think it is fascinating, and it is wonderful. I do plan to share it with
my seniors at my church. One of Irbys neighbors Aleta Meyer expressed her
surprise, I have never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag.
This is definitely different.
Shirley Watts also lives in the neighborhood. She plans to show others her art.
I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it up on my wall
and then I know that I did it.
Making art with found materials is not a new idea. Anyone can do it.

Recycled paper, cloth and metal goods can become beautiful pictures and
sculptures, Allita Irby said, I think we are all artists really, and there is beauty
all around us. The artist also said that all you had to do was open your eyes and
bring the outside in.
56.What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph?
A.The advantage of plastic bags.
B.The disadvantage of plastic bags.
C.How to reuse and recycle plastic bags.
D.The importance of recycling plastic bags.
57.The underlined part “does just that” in the second paragraph means “_______”.

58.What is Irby’s neighbors’ attitude towards her action?
A.Supportive. B.Negative C.Suspicious. D.Unknown.
59.Who intends to share the skill of turning used plastic bags into art with old
people?
A.Aleta Meyer. B.Allita Irby. C.Charlotte Hogan D.Shirley Watts
60.According to Alllita Irby, the most important step in making art with found
materials is _______.
A.to come up with the idea B.to seek beauty all around us
C.to be open to new ideas and things D.to choose the most suitable objects

What if you could use your clothes to browse the internet and send messages?
A “digital cloth” created by researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai is making
this a reality.
Research on a new type of flexible textile (织物) with a display system that has
multiple applications was published in the journal Nature on March 10.
A user can read messages, reply and even navigate on his sleeve, as shown in a
video produced by the team. The team claimed that the material is also comfortable
to wear. Clothes woven with this new material can closely follow the irregular
outline of the human body and are as light and breathable as ordinary textiles,
ensuring comfort, said Peng Huisheng, leader of the team. The textile can also
endure repeated folding and stretching. Its brightness and stability remained
almost unchanged after having been washed in a washing machine 500 times,” said
Peng.
Behind the magical textile is ten years of hard work by Peng and his team. The
research team created two functional fibers: a silver-plated thread that can light up,
高三英语试卷 第 7 页(共 13 页)
and a kind of thread that conducts electricity. According to The Paper, the biggest
challenge lies in building programmable arrays (排列) of twinkling dots on the soft
fibers with diameters(直径) ranging from tens to hundreds of microns. Inspired
by the weaving process, Peng’s team found a solution by trial and error: the
interweaving (交织) of the cross threads can naturally form a dot array similar to
the array on a digital display screen.
Peng believes that the new cloth could be used for many things. For example,
it could help people with language barriers or disabilities better communicate. In
one test, Peng’s team monitored brainwaves from volunteers who had either been
playing a game or relaxing. The waves were then translated into messages as
“anxious” or “relaxed” and shown on the cloth. This could help hearing-impaired
people “talk” to each other in the future.
“We hope that new materials will shape next generation electronic devices by
changing the way we interact with them,” Peng told AFP.
61.What can we learn about the “the digital cloth”?
A.It is an electronic device attached to sleeves.
B.It aims to replace traditional communication tools.
C.It’s characterized by flexibility and stability.
D.It’s designed for people with physical disabilities.
62.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.The team’s efforts behind the new product.
B.The process of making the fibers.
C.Where the inspiration of the invention came from.
D.The advantages of the new digital cloth.
63.How could the textile benefit people?
A.It could help improve users’ emotions.
B.It could convey the wearer’s mood.
C.It could talk to people.
D.It could be used to treat hearing loss.
64.What’s the main purpose of the article?
A.To encourage the use of a new product.
B.To predict the prospects of the new technology.
C.To introduce a new way of communication.
D.To inform readers of new research.
65.What’s the main idea of this passage?
A.A next generation electronic device has been developed.
B.A “digital cloth” helps hearing-impaired people “talk” to each other.
C.Shanghai researchers have developed a new type of textile with a display system.
D.It has been a reality for people to use their clothes to browse the internet and

Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even
though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events
happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an
official report on youth violence, In our country today, the greatest threat to the
lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but
the terrible reality of violence. Given that this is the case, why aren't students
taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive
cars, or stay physically fit?
First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on
violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent
incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example,
a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each
lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to
violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the
conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the
golden rule of conflict resolution stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or
she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words,
name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir. On the other hand,
soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes
out of control.
After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for
conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each
other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen
without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to
clarify the speaker’s position. Then the two people should change roles.
Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean
trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding
what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a
shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person
thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask
themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want?
What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply
becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a
mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to
be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program,
高三英语试卷 第 9 页(共 13 页)
according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64 percent of the teachers
reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported
an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about
themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends,
teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic
life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
66.This article is mainly about _______.
A.the lives of school children B.the cause of arguments in schools
C.how to analyze youth violence D.how to deal with school conflicts
67.From Paragraph 2 we can learn that ________.
A.violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
