There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.
That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.
The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.
And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.
Don’t guess! Look it up!
39. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _____________.
A. to learn them by oneself
B. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently
C. to guess them from the context
D. to get more separate meanings of each word
40. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A. the 30,000 words B. English teachers
C. misunderstood words D. frequently used words
41. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?
A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.
B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.
C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.
D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.
42. It can be inferred that _________.
A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually can’t learn new words by heart
B. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them
C. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the context
D. only dictionaries can help us learn language well
(C)
My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.
I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.
I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.
What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?
As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光燈) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.
Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys.
As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.
Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自動地).
My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.
There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.
When l came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!
Needless to say, 1 obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技藝), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.
After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.
43. The author was nervous before the performance because _______.
A. his or her mother and father weren’t present
B. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stage
C. he or she hadn’t mastered the entire piece
D. he or she had never performed in public before
44. The underlined phrase “mess up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.
A. put into disorder B. forget about C. stop halfway D. do well in
45. The author _________.
A. didn’t make any mistake in the performance
B. felt better at the beginning of the performance
C. paid all attention to nothing but his / her performance
D. lost his / her concentration sometimes during the performance
46. What did the author feel about his / her performance?
A. He / She thought it was comfortable and successful.
B. He / She thought it was very difficult but successful.
C. He / She thought he / she had never made a mistake during the performance.
D. He / She thought he / she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.
(D)
People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.
On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air.
The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.
47. The key point of the passage is that _________.
A. the cause of air pollution is people
B. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in cities
C. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to death
D. air pollution is caused by dirty air
48. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. to persuade people to stop polluting the air
B. to tell the causes of air pollution
C. to tell why cities are bad places to live
D. to describe why cities are bad places to live
49. Why is air pollution more grave in the city than in the country?
A. Because there larger populations in cities.
B. Because the air in the city is dirty.
C. Because there are more cars in the city.
D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energy
in the city than in the country.
50. The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.
A. to turn black B. to become rusty C. to corrode D. to twist
51. In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to ___________.

(E)
Did you know
that vegetables can grow in the climates they are not used to? Cool climate
vegetables like asparagus (蘆筍) are now able to be grown
in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine (海的)engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables
that they are living in cooler climates. In that way they grow faster and taste
better. What these engineers have been using is very simply cold sea water. How
did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through
them cools the earth. This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in
tropical climates (熱帶氣候) to grow crops from cooler
climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air
“wet” and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy about this
process
(過程) is that nothing to the natural conditions is being used. Another
new use for cold ocean water is to cool buildings. Engineers believe that for
example the entire west coast of the
52. What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?
A. Water the field with seawater. B. Grow asparagus in hot places.

A. How to grow vegetables in hot areas. B. How to grow crops in tropical climates.
C. How to cool the soil. D. How to use sea water.
55. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

高三英語模擬試題三答案
單項選擇：1―15 CBCBB DADBC DDADD
完形填空：
這是一則趣味故事，講述作者到一家飯店去吃飯，脫下外套遞給服務員，吃完后發現有人穿錯了外套，并且口袋里有一枚金戒指。在警察的幫助下，找到了丟戒指的人，原來那人在火車上時，他的戒指是被一個小賊偷走的。
16．C 根據常識，作者走進一家飯店 / 旅館一小時后要離開可以推斷，他到這里是為了吃飯。
17。A 根據句意，選擇took表示“拿走”。
18．D 詞組be ready to do ...表示“準備做某事”。
19．C 那位服務員把外套拿到作者面前，因此用brought。
20．B 副詞suddenly說明作者感到意外。
21．C 根據下一句話You’ve brought someone else’s coat可以推斷，作者這時仔細看了看那件外套。
22．D someone else’s coat表示“其他人的外套”。
23．A 根據邏輯判斷前后為轉折語義。
24．C suppose表示“猜測，猜想”。
25。B 這樣的事有時候會發生。
26。D 詞組go over to someone表示“向某人走過去”。
27。A 根據后面回答Yes可知前面是一般疑問句式，因此選C。
28．A 根據后面一句話the young man arrived可以推斷，警察打電話給那個人。
29．B 這時當然要感謝作者了。
30．C 語義轉折，可意為：然而我是在火車上丟的戒指。
31．A 作者把剛才發生的事(story)告訴給他。
32．D 那么這只戒指是如何在那個外套里的呢?
33．D 意思是“那時有人坐在或站在你的旁邊嗎？”
34．B 但是這里的這位朋友不是小偷。
35．C No在這里表示“是的，他不是一個小偷”
36.A。見contracts所在的句子以及最后一句話。這是寫這封信的實質。而其余部分主要是宣傳他們的公司，他們的服務等。這些都是為了讓客戶放心地購他們的貨。
37.C。該詞前面講到了Mr. Perkins的兒子決定向船舶公司買一艘大船；又根據contracts后面的sign(簽訂)以及隨后講的公司已做好交貨的準備，需要的只是簽訂了的contracts等等，可知它的意思是“合同”。
38.A。正文第二句講：他們的公司兩年前才成立。
39.D。本文作者不主張猜詞義，而強調查辭典的重要性，并應記住盡量多的詞義。作者在倒數第二段作了說明：辭典能給出很多不同的詞義。聯系起來可得出此答案。也可用排除法。
40.A。根據上文所說I learnt the 30,000 words...可知。
41.D。從第1段中的sinking in(潛移默化)和第2段中的pick them up(不知不覺學到)，可知作者掌握的詞匯中一部分是在生活中無意識學到的。
42.B。第3段說作者對所學詞匯中的5％理解錯誤，原因是用得最少。而用得多的則誤解的可能性小。
43.D。從第1段可知，這是作者首次在觀眾面前演出，再結合第3、4段便知作者緊張的原因。
44.A。從前面的內容推知：在父母面前演奏無妨，即使messed up(弄得一團糟)他們也會說“很好”。
45.C。9、10、11三段都對此作了描述。
46.B。最后兩段無疑是在告訴讀者，作者成功了。此外前八段都是對作者緊張、不安的描述。所以只有B項能恰當反映作者對此次表演的感受。D顯然錯誤；同時因為作者演奏時曾彈錯了一個音符，所以C的說法錯誤。
47. B。主旨題。縱觀全文，文章的前半部分講的是導致污染的原因，而后半部分講的是污染的結果。而A只強調起因，C只強調結果，D與本文沒有什么關系。所以B為正確答案。
48. A。推理題。文章沒有直接說寫這篇文章的目的。但我們從受污染的結果可以推斷出寫這篇文章的目的就是要我們減少污染。所以A為正確答案。
49. D。細節題。第一段后半部分說明，空氣污染的主要原因是汽車的廢氣和用來發電的煤和油的燃燒。而汽車和電在城市里比在郊區用得多。故D正確。
50. C。細節題。文章最后一段第三句直接提到：wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may … cause metal to corrode.。所以C為正確答案。
51. B。細節題。根據文章最后一句“these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.”可知，B為正確答案。
52. C。利用題目中的關鍵詞雨，在原文中找到對應詞語，在對應詞語周圍找到答案。A、B項均屬于表面意思，且捕食原文中的具體事實，D項cool the soil不是最終目的。只有C項是具體事實：cool climate vegetables are now able to be grown．．．符合文中的the new system。
53. D。A、B、C項所述只是seawater所起的附帶作用，并不是文章所指的主要方面，故正確答案為D。
54. D。找出多次重復的信息，它必定是主題。這類問題的典型形式是：What．．． main．．．／mainly．．．?要求考生指出文章的topic(論題)，subject(主題)，title(標題)，main idea(大意)等。seawater在原文中直接出現兩次，間接出現三次：coldwater，cold ocean water，How did they use it? 等，故正確答案為D。
55. C。吃透作者意圖，通過作者闡述的觀點、敘述的事實等，避開表面現象，得出可靠結論。infer，imply (暗示)，suggest，conclude，assume (suppose)等常用于這類題中。A、D項均為字面意思。B項過于具體，只有C項為作者的真正意圖
