Four trams from four different directions. For a child on a bike thats really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as thebicycle capital of the world. The number of bicyclesin Amsterdam is estimated at 881,000 more than the citys 850,000 inhabitants and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters(小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which schoolchildren were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add childrens bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury(评审员)member during theAmsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the citys mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park where children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really dont know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city thats good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”24. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer for children.C. To give suggestions to the citys mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city.25. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. Important.B. Unnecessary.C. Difficult.D. Valuable.26. What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor?A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.27. Whats Boermas attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. Cautious.B. Favorable.C.

In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing, because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the childs first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the childs development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.28. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program?A. The large number of poor families.B. The disapproval from children.C. The late start of the program.D. The long period of time.29. What do we know about the “Missouri” program?A. It focused on the childrens first school teachers.B. It helped the children return to the same home.C. It made the children improved in many aspects.D. It gave the parents advice on their development.30. According to the passage, what is likely to influence childrens performance?A. The number of family members.B. The parent-child communication.C. The intelligence of their parents.D. The teacher-student relationship.31. How does the author develop the passage?A. By listing figures.B. By making comparisons.C. By giving examples.D. By drawing conclusions.D【2019年湖南省郴州市高三第三次质量检测英语试题】The dangers of drowsy(昏昏欲睡) driving have been widely known. Now several companies have developed face-tracking technology that can tell when drivers become dangerously sleepy.Here is how it might work: A camera in your car monitors your facial expression, compares it to a database of expressions and determines if you are likely sleepy or distracted. The car then alerts you to pay attention or pull over.Affectiva has developed emotion recognition technology that aims to detect when people are just starting to get tired. The idea is to catch the warning signs before drowsiness really strikes. “Actually, when someone is drowsy, that is too late.” Gabi, vice president of Affectiva said. “What if you can see trends in someones face about five minutes before they become sleepy?” Affectivas program can recognize seven different emotions and 15 facial expressions. Its standards were developed by sifting(筛选) through a database of 4 million faces from 75 counties, said Zijderveld. She suggested that carmakers could coordinate(协调) the programs facial recognition data with oral reminders, such as sound warnings, or (nonverbal) alerts, like a change of temperature and vibrations (continuous slight shaking movements).Eyeris is another company working in facial analytics. Modar Alaoui, the companys CEO, said that its software detects “eye openness” in addition to other facial indicators. The software can also read head position, which may indicate when someone begins to nod off.These technologies arent the first attempt to fight drowsiness behind the wheel. Inventors came up with the similar device “sleeper beeper” to prevent sleep in cars back in 1983. The sleeper beeper was attached to a drivers ear and would issue a noisy warning when the drivers head nodded past a certain point. But the latest software would intervene(干涉) earlier and more effectively.32. The camera in the car can determine if a driver is _.A. near-sightedB. absent-mindedC. bad-temperedD. cold-blooded33. When will drivers be reminded to pay attention or pull over by the face-tracking technology?A. When they are drowsy.B. When they are really tired.C. Five minutes after they become sleepy.D. When they are just beginning to get tired.34. It is most likely that the “sleeper beeper” would send out a warning by _.A. making noiseB. shaking slightlyC. flashing brilliantlyD. changing temperature35. What is the main idea of the text?A. The dangers of drowsy driving have been widely known.B. Inventors have tried out the similar device “sleeper beeper”.C. Several companies have found some ways to fight drowsiness behind the wheel.D. Face-tracking technology for drowsy driving has been developed by several companies.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项。【湖北省武汉外国语学校2019届高三3月份模拟质量检测英语】The UN has recognized the contributions of volunteers on Dec. 5, International Volunteer Day.
