1、北京市昌平区2019届高三英语上学期二模试题（含解析）第一部分：知识运用 (共两节，45分)第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分）阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。AI love music.

3、 became rich and popular.【答案】1. on/upon 2. were invited 3. copies【解析】这是一篇记叙文。记叙了作者从小热爱音乐，并和自己的乐队靠“滑稽爵士乐”出名的经过。【1题详解】考查固定短语。句意：起初，我们靠在街上演奏乐器赚钱。短语depend on/upon“取决于；依靠”。故填on/upon。【2题详解】考查动词时态语态。句意：不久，我们的“滑稽爵士乐”就出名了，我们被邀请到各地演出。本句主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且根据上文our “funny jazz” became famous可知应用一般过去时，故填were invited。
4、【3题详解】考查名词的数。句意：大约售出了一百万册，我们变得富有和受欢迎。copy为可数名词，根据上文one million可知应用复数形式，故填copies。BVoyages of people from England played _4_ important part in spreading the English language.

5、ish spoken in these countries can be understood well by native English speakers.

6、omes.【答案】4. an 5. Based 6. gradually【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了英国人的航海对英语的传播起了重要作用。4题详解】考查冠词。句意：英国人的航海对英语的传播起了重要作用。固定短语play an important part in“起重要作用”，故填an。【5题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：以英式英语为基础，这些国家说的英语可以被以英语为母语的人很好地理解。本句已经存在谓语动词且句中没有连词，故base只能做非谓语动词与逻辑主语构成被动关系，故填过去分词Based。【6题详解】考查副词。句意：但实际上，英语在口音、拼写、表达方式和词汇用法方面都在逐渐发生变化。
7、change为动词需要副词修饰，故填gradually。CCharlie Chaplin was an extraordinary performer _7_ acted in and directed many outstanding comedies. Few were bored in _8_ (watch) his moustache, his gestures or his entertaining reactions when chased by detectives. Being drunk, sliding on a banana peel or whispering his

9、地的人们感到惊讶。【7题详解】考查定语从句连接词。句意：查理卓别林是一位杰出的演员，他出演并导演了许多杰出的喜剧。本句为定语从句修饰先行词performer，且先行词在从句中做主语，指人，故填who/that。【8题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：很少有人对他的胡子、他的手势或他被侦探追捕时的有趣反应感到厌烦。in为介词后跟动名词做宾语，故填watching。【9题详解】考查人称代词。句意：他喝醉了，踩在香蕉皮上滑倒了，或者对着别人窃窃私语自己的失败，这些都让我们对自己的生活感到更加满意，甚至不需要用一个词。本空做谓语动词make的宾语，故填人称代词宾格us。【10题详解】考查动词时态。句意：直到
10、今天，他独特的幽默感仍然让世界各地的人们感到惊讶。根据下文even till this day“直到今天”，可知应用现在完成时，且主语为单数名词，故填has astonished。【点睛】定语从句中的关系词选择，可考虑以下几点：1、看清楚先行词的意义，就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用who或whom，指人时通常不用which等等。2、看清楚关系词的句法功能，就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分，是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等等。作定语通常用whose，有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why。3、看清楚定语从句的种类，就是理清是限制性定语从句还
11、是非限制性定语从句。that、why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。 4、看清楚文体，就是理清是正式文体，还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。如第一小题，句意：查理卓别林是一位杰出的演员，他出演并导演了许多杰出的喜剧。本句为定语从句修饰先行词performer，且先行词在从句中做主语，指人，故填who/that。第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，共30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。My family lives in Las Vegas, where I can hardly remember the las

69、 we acknowledge the strong role industry must play in order to help可知企业生产塑料并不是为了让塑料最终流入海洋，我们承认，为了在2035年前帮助消除海洋塑料垃圾，行业必须发挥强大的作用。故划线单词eliminate意思应为“消除；终止；结束”，故选A。DBecause of ageing, the world needs a robotics revolution. “The question for all of us is: how can we use technology to make the quality of
70、life better as people get older?” Says Gill Pratt, a man who had previously run a competition to find artificially intelligent, semi-autonomous robots for the Pentagon.Ageing and robots are more closely related than you might think.Ageing creates demand for automation in two ways. First, to prevent
71、output from falling as more people retire, it is necessary to use machines as a replacement for those who have left the workforce or to enable ageing workers to continue to do physical labor. Second, once people have retired they create markets for new kinds of automation, including robots that help
72、 with the medical and other requirements of caring for people who can no longer look after themselves.Automation is not the only way to deal with skills shortages, but it is one of the most important. At the moment, the robotics market is led by industrial machines. As ageing speeds up, service robo

74、 children and patients with dementia (痴呆) and human-like robots that can carry out conversations on a limited range of topics have already been put into use.According to the International Federation of Robotics, about 20,000 robots sold in 2018 could be described as helpful to the ageing. That is le
75、ss than 5% of industrial robots. The number will undoubtedly grow. The question is how quickly. Mr. Pratt is optimistic. Over the past five years, he argues, there have been huge advances in artificial intelligence, enabling machines to surpass humans in certain kinds of information processing. In o
76、ther words, robots perform more quickly and reliably than humans. New firms are pouring into the business. A third of robot companies are less than six years old and make service robots. The costs of research and development are coming down and investment is rising. Within a decade, Mr. Pratt suppos
77、es, robots at home will help people with simple tasks such as cooking.But for that to happen, robots will have to perform a long list of things they cannot yet do. They cannot navigate reliably around an ordinary home, move their hands skillfully like a human, or conduct open-ended conversations. Al
78、though they can provide some physical assistance to the elderly, one robot can do only one thing, so multiple tasks would require your home to be equipped with many robots. All these suggest that, in terms of solving the problem associated with ageing, robots have a long way to go.42. Demand for aut

A 43.
83、D 44. C 45. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了由于老龄化，世界需要机器人革命。老龄化从两个方面创造了对自动化的需求。自动化不是解决技能短缺的唯一方法，但却是最重要的方法之一。但是机器人仍存许多问题，因此在解决老龄化问题方面，机器人还有很长的路要走。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段First, to prevent output from falling as more people retire, it is necessary to use machines as a replacement for those who have left the workforce or
84、to enable ageing workers to continue to do physical labor.（首先，为了防止随着越来越多的人退休，产出下降，有必要使用机器来替代那些已经离开劳动力市场的人，或者让上了年纪的工人能够继续从事体力劳动。）可知对老化引起的自动化需求的存在可能是因为随着更多人退休，自动化使产量保持稳定。故选A。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段The question for all of us is: how can we use technology to make the quality of life better as people get ol

Says Gill Pratt, a man who had previously run a competition to find artificially intelligent, semi-autonomous robots for the Pentagon.（我们所有人面临的问题是：随着人们年龄的增长，我们怎样才能利用技术提高生活质量？吉尔普拉特说，他此前为五角大楼举办过一场寻找人工智能半自动机器人的竞赛。）可知，普拉特可能会同意服务机器人在不久的将来发展迅速。故选D。【44题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段But for that to happen, robots wil
86、l have to perform a long list of things they cannot yet do. They cannot navigate reliably around an ordinary home, move their hands skillfully like a human, or conduct open-ended conversations.（但要做到这一点，机器人将不得不执行一系列他们还不能做的事情他们无法在普通家庭中可靠地导航，像人类一样熟练地移动他们的手，或进行开放式对话。）可知，我们可以了解到，作者认为机器人中的技术问题可能会限制他们更广泛的社
