An Airport Jacket containing up to 15kg luggage is designed to help frequent flyers bypass(绕过) airport baggage queues, reduce baggage fees and really lower the risk of lost luggage. With airlines beginning to charge for carry - on baggage as well as severely limiting 10aggage allowances for the low fare economy traveler, my partner and I have designed a jacket that can wear your laptop, tablet, two pairs of shoes, a pair of jeans, five T - shirts, a jumper and a camera, designer Claire Murphy explains. It totals 14 deep pockets, including 8 pockets at hip length, 11 pockets at three - quarter length and 14 pockets at full length. . Claire and Benke Murphy came up with the idea while traveling home with their newborn child. They had so much extra carry - on luggage that the airline tried to charge them $ 140 for it, more than the cost of their tickets. So they had to put clothes, chargers, diapers and toys into their pockets, until just over the weight limit. They escaped the tax, but everything sticking out of their pocket saw a pretty uncomfortable plane ride.However, people have been raising questions about the usefulness of the Airport Jacket, especially the trouble of going through security checkpoints. They are arguing that having to take all out and then putting them back into the pockets is not worth the few tens of dollars you save on a checked luggage.But Benke claims that walking through airport security is not an issue as long as you follow guidelines for carry - on luggage. It only needs to be worn when checking in and at the boarding gate. What s more, Airport security is not looking at how you store your luggage but checking its contents. Its makers are currently running a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, trying to raise $ AU100, 000. But theyve only raised $ AU3, 675 so far, although they still have 37 days to go, so its still hopeful And even if this fails, they may still find a way to get it to market.5Whats the least possible benefit of using the Airport Jacket?A. it may cut down on the luggage fees.B. it may decrease the risk of losing luggage.C. it may save the time of passing long queues.D. it can guarantee you a comfortable flight service. .6What does the paragraph 3 mainly discuss about?A. how much luggage the couple carriedB. how luckily the couple avoided overchargingC. how the designers got their inspirationD. how painful the couples flying experience was7What can we infer from this passage?A. The pockets of the Airport Jacket have 28 in total.B. Not all regard the Airport Jacket as a perfect invention.C. Crowdfunding is the best way to collect money you need.D. Airports now begin to limit the number of economy travelers.8What will the author probably mention in the next paragraph?A. Their kinds of anxiety and fear facing failure.B. Their possible measures to market their product.C. Their sharp and powerful attack against those opposed.D. Their attempts to improve and enlarge the production capacity.【语篇解读】本文为介绍说明文。文章介绍了一款帮助飞机乘客携带行李的“机场夹克”。5【答案】D6【答案】C【解析】段落大意题。第三段主要描述了这款机场夹克设计者Claire and Benke Murphy为什么要设计这款夹克的原因。故选C。7【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的However, people have been raising questions about the usefulness of the Airport Jacket, especially the trouble of going through security checkpoints.可推知，并不是所有人都认为这是一个很完美的发明。故选B。8【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中对让这款机场夹克投入市场存在的困难及And even if this fails, they may still find a way to get it to market.可推知，接下来将讲述他们打算进行的一些营销策略。故选B。Passage 3（2017届天津市十二重点中学高三毕业班联考（二）英语试卷）Hidden London: the citys lesser known delights Dulwich Picture GalleryAs much an excuse to enjoy the village charms of Dulwich Village as to admire some delicate European masterworks, this gallery is a southeast London charmer, which was founded in 1811.

Additionally, if you dont live in the US,the book makes little sense,since it is full of American references both historically and in terms of customs.Anyway,Mistakes that Worked is a reminder that failure is not always the end.It is an enlightening book that encourages us to realize that taking risks and learning to experiment is often the best way to learn,even if we dont end up creating something new and wonderful.14What kind of book is Mistakes that Worked?A.

Although my parents enjoyed wine, they rarely drank during the week and always in moderation (节制). As for myself, I wasnt interested in alcoholic drinks and neither were my high school friends.So when I arrived on campus for my first year of university life, I was a bit shocked. Many different events had been organized for the freshmen, but they all had one thing in common alcohol, and plenty of it. Not wanting to be left out, I joined a few of the events. But I always returned home early, feeling disappointed. Your personality, interests and experiences didnt matter at all, only how many alcoholic drinks you could absorb before passing out (喝醉). It seemed shallow to me. I wanted to get to know my new coursemates, not how fast they could down a pint of beer.Gradually, however, I realized that real friends dont judge you by how much you can drink and there were other ways of making friends. I joined a photography society, took a first aid course, and every weekend I went cycling with a coursemate. I found that by engaging in these activities and sharing the fun of learning new skills together in a group, I formed much stronger bonds with my new friends than even the strongest alcoholic drinks could encourage.Another valuable lesson I learned is that its perfectly okay to say “No” if you dont want to drink. However, in many Western societies, especially the UK, binge drinking (狂喝) has become the norm. Many people who drink dont necessarily want to, but they give in to the peer pressure (同伴压力) theyre afraid to say “No”18What shocked the author when he entered university?AThe strange campus. BThe popularity of alcohol.CThe drunken coursemates. DThe limited activities.19Why did the author return home early from the events at first?AHe wasnt good at drinking.BHe had no familiar coursemates.CHe hated the way people got along.DHe was left out by the organizers.20How did the author finally make real friends at university?ABy saying “No” to alcoholic drinks.BBy staying away from group activities.CBy giving in to the peer pressure.DBy joining people with common interests.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者对大学新生活的体验和感悟。19【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。结合第二段“But I always returned home early .before passing out (喝醉). It seemed shallow to me.”可推知，作者很早就回家的原因是作者不喜欢大学里人们以酒交友的方式。故选C。20【答案】D【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段“I found that by engaging . drinks could encourage.”可推知，作者是通过与志同道合的人一起参加活动来结交挚友的。故选D。Passage 6（江苏省南通、扬州、泰州、淮安四市2017届高三下学期第三次模拟考试英语试题）Carpe diemseize the dayis one of the oldest philosophical mottos in western history. First used by the Roman poet Horace more than 2,000 years ago, it still keeps an extraordinary resonance (共鸣) in popular culture.It is unusual that an expression from a long-dead language generates more than 25 million online search results. Yet just as striking is the fact that there is not one carpe diem, but many. While usually translated as “seize” the day, the original Latin is sometimes interpreted as “harvest”, or “enjoy” the day. These variations (变化) tell us that carpe diem means different things to different people. For some its about taking a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, while for others it is about living calmly in the present moment. We might casually use the term carpe diem when chatting with a friend, but how many of us are aware of its many personalities hidden beneath the surface?In our age of distraction, where we are checking our phones an average of 110 times a day,grasping these different meanings is more important than ever. They are an antidote (解毒药) to the reality that we are, as Shakespeare put it, “food for worms”. Life is short and our time is running out.But heres the problem: carpe diem has been hijacked (绑架). Who, or what, are the hijackers? First, the spirit of “seize the day” has been secretly hijacked by consumer culture, which has recast it as Black Friday shopping rushes and one-click buying: Just Do It has come to mean Just Buy It.Alongside this is the growing fashionable belief of efficiency and time management that has driven us towards tight-scheduled living, turning the spontaneity (自然发生) of Just Do It into a culture of Just Plan It.A third hijacker is digital entertainment that is replacing energetic life experiences with screen-based pleasures. Rather than Just Do It, we increasingly Just Watch It instead.Finally, carpe diem has been hijacked by the mindfulness movement. While mindfulness has many proven benefits, from reducing stress to helping with depression, one of its unintended consequences has been to encourage the narrow idea that seizing the day is primarily about living in the here and now. Just Do It has become Just Breathe.Challenged by these hijackers, the art of seizing the day is disappearing and we urgently need to do something about it, or else risk losing touch with the carpe diem wisdom of humanity that has accumulated over the past two thousand years.21What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 2?A. People often create different situations for carpe diem.B. Carpe diem should be better interpreted than before.C. People usually scratch the surface of carpe diem.D. Carpe diem should be replaced with new terms.22By mentioning Shakespeare in Paragraph 3, the author wants to emphasize_.A. we should try to expand the length of our lifeB. we should treasure every moment of our lifeC. we should use effective medicine to cure diseasesD. we should check our phones to avoid distraction23Which of the following can best prove carpe diem has been hi
