A large dinner party is being given in an up-country station by a colonial official and his wife. The guests are army and government officers and their wives, and an American naturalist.At one side of the long table, a spirited discussion springs up between a young girl and an army officer. The girl insists women have long outgrown the jumping-on-a-chair-at-the-sight-of-a-mouse era, and that they are not as anxious as their grandmothers were. The officer says they are, arguing women haven't the actual nerve control of men."A woman's reaction in any crisis," the officer says, "is to scream. And while a man may feel like it, he has that ounce more of control than a woman has."The American scientist does not join in the argument but sits and watches the faces of the other guests. As he stares, he sees a slight, though strange look of anxiety come over the face of the hostess. With a small gesture she summons the servant standing behind her chair. She whispers to him. The servant's eyes widen. He turns quickly and leaves the room. No one else sees this, nor the servant when he puts a bowl of milk on the balcony outside the glass doors.The American understands. In India, milk in a bowl means only one thing. It is bait for a snake. He realizes there is a cobra in the room. The American's eyes move across the room but he sees nothing. He realizes the snake can only be in one place—under the table.His first reaction is to jump back and warn the others. But he knows any sudden movement will frighten the cobra and it will strike. He speaks quickly, the quality of his voice so arresting that it quietens everyone. "I want to know just what control everyone at this table has. I will count three hundred—that's five minutes —and not one of you is to move a single muscle. Now! Ready!"The 20 people sit like stone images while he counts. He is saying "…two hundred and eighty..." when, out of the corner of his eye, he sees the snake emerge and make for the bowl of milk. Four or five screams ring out as he jumps to slam shut the balcony doors."There is your proof!" the host says. "A man has just shown us real control.""Just a minute," the American says, turning to his hostess, "How did you know that cobra was in the room?"A faint smile comes across the woman's face as she replies. "Because it was lying across my foot."(1)What is the argument between the army officer and the young girl about?A.Whether women are afraid of mice.B.Whether men are calmer than women.C.Whether men are cleverer than women.D.Whether women would make suitable soldiers.(2)Why is the servant asked to put out some milk?A.To play a trick.B.To serve the guests.C.To attract the snake.D.To feed the hostess's pet.(3)Why does the scientist suggest the guests play a game?A.He doesn't want anyone to panic.B.He intends to test the officer's theory.C.He sees there was a snake in the room.D.He wants to entertain the other guests.(4)What does the author imply through the hostess's final statement?A.The army officer's opinion is wrong.B.The hostess understood the American's intention.C.The American was surprised by the snake's presence.D.The hostess has had previous experience dealing with snakes.6.Have you ever heard of a pawpaw(木瓜)? If not, do not feel bad. Most Americans do not know of the fruit, though it is native to the United States.Once, however, it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. Happily, those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods. A pawpaw is a tropical-like fruit that grows on trees found all over the eastern United States. It's also the largest fruit native to the US.It is similar to a typical mango in size. It has a dull green-colored skin, and a soft, almost-creamy orange inside. The pawpaw was not sold commercially in the past. The fruit requires a very special environment-low, wet areas that sometimes flood. It has a very short harvest season, from two to three weeks in September and October. In addition, the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw tree it came from.Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. In several states farmers haveorganized "pawpaw festivals" to reintroduce people to the food. At such a festival in Maryland recently, farmers displayed different products made with pawpaws. There were pawpaw jams, pies, gelato(冰淇淋)and beer. Michael Judd helped organize the Maryland pawpaw festival.Farmers are trying to grow kinds of pawpaws that will be easier to ship and sell commercially. Donna and Jim Davis are pawpaw farmers in Westminster, Maryland. They said that they purchased their pawpaw trees in the 1990s and now sell the fruit at farmer's markets and online.(1)What can we know about the pawpaw according to the text?A.Its harvest season lasts long.B.It grows in Europe originally.C.It has already returned to its former position.D.It used to be well-received in North America.(2)What limited the pawpaw to being sold commercially in the past?A.It was unknown to the world.B.It's hard to grow, store and transport.C.It has similar taste with typical mangoes.D.The planters were unwilling to grow them for low profits.(3)Why do farmers hold "pawpaw festivals"?A.To show lots of delicious food to people.B.To make the pawpaw known to people again.C.To introduce people to a completely new fruit.D.To tell people the forgotten history about the fruit.(5)What is the best title for the text?A.The History of Pawpaws.B.How to Grow Pawpaws.C.The Comeback of Pawpaws.D.The Origin of Pawpaw Festival.四、七选五(本题共计 1 小题,共计5分)7. (5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。

BJeremiah Thoronka was born in the fighting of the Sierra Leone civil war and grew up in the gutter(贫民窟)on the suburbs of the capital Freetown,having to burn wood for lighting heating.Jeremiahheating.Jeremiah saw with his own eyes how,in addition to the smog making breathing problems common,his young contemporaries fell behind in their schoolwork because of a lack of decent lighting.Energy poverty is a major issue in Sierra Leone—with just 26%of the population having electricity.Inelectricity.In rural parts of the country,only 6%of people have electricity access,most of whom turn to solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.As a result,it's led to the destruction of forests as people cut down trees for firewood,which leaves Sierra Le one highly sensitive to extreme events like flooding and landslides.Families reliance on firewood also leads to frequent house fires.These life-threatening disadvantages and hardships fuelled Jeremiah's passion for renew able energy and climate change advocacy.At 17 when studying at the African Leadership University in Rwanda,he launched a start-up called Optim Energy that transforms vibrations(震动)from vehicles and footfall on roads into an electric current.It is different from established renewable energy sources including wind or solar because it generates power without relying on changeable weather.Optim Energy ran a successful pilot program in Jeremiah's neighbourhoods,Makawo in the northern part of Sierra Leone and Kuntoluh east of Freetown.With just two devices,the startup provided free electricity to 150 households comprising around 500 citizens as well as15 schools where more than 9,000 students attend.Jeremiah is currently developing plans to expand into the healthcare field which needs power to cool medicines and create enough light for treating patients after dark.24.What affected the young fellows academic performance?A.The war.C.The poor lighting.B.The smog.D.The breathing problem.25.What can we learn about"energy poverty"from paragraph 2?A.It is caused by solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.B.It has a worse impact on the city area.C.It brings about the destruction of forests.D.It increases the risk of forest fires.26.What is special about Optim Energy?A.It draws on vibrations to make electricityB.It upgrades the use of solar energy.C.It runs a pilot program throughout the city.D.It helps 9,000 students return to school.27.What message does the text want to convey?A.Electricity is the lifeblood of the city.B.Whoever is happy will make others happy too.C.Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.D.We are all in the gutter,but some are making it better.CFor a century,Jordan Creek cut across downtown Springfield.Over the decades the stream regularly flooded into the city's commercial heart.Residents had been tired of the floods so they created concrete banks to cage the stream and in 1932 buried the waterway,hiding it in culverts(排水管)under city streets.It was man's attempt to control floodwater.That was the old way of thinking.For a while,that controlled the floods.But the roads and other hard surfaces prevented water from going into the ground and allowing more rainwater into the enclosed streams than they could handle.Eventually,the water won.The neighborhood flooded in 2000,2008 and2016.For two decades,the city discussed freeing the stream and allowing water to run over the floodplain.Finally,a project to uncover 1,100 feet of Jordan Creek and build three bridges is moving forward.The new way of thinking is to give the water some room,leave some areas for floods and just let nature be nature.Uncovering buried waterways to bring them back to life is a process known as“day lighting”.Coverings are removed and an attempt is made to restore the natural flow and the surrounding ecosystem.The primary goal of the project is flood control.But the work has a variety of benefits.Native plantings will help improve the water quality by filtering(过滤)rainwater.The stream will replace an unsightly landscape and become a“string of pearls(珍珠)”connecting parks and green areas in the city's "Quality of Place"initiative.The benefits go beyond that.Stream restoration is neighborhood restoration.The project may promote economic development and increase property values and tax revenue.While the projects can be expensive,they end costly maintenance.Returning to nature is cheaper than maintaining concrete culverts.28.What did Springfield citizens in the 1930s probably believe?A.Man can control nature.C.Business is the heart of a city.B.Life is prior to development.D.Residents should not live by a river29.What was one result of covering Jordan Creek?A.Three bridges were removed.B.Water went into the ground.C.Floods hit the neighborhood.D.Rainwater was well handled30.Which aspect of the project does paragraph 4 mainly discuss?A.Economic value. C.Flood management.B.Construction planning D.Environmental impact.31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.A Solution That Proves a ProblemB.Old Thinking Inspires New ChangesC.“Buried”Streams Turn into Urban CentersD.“Daylighting”Buried Waterways to Refresh CitiesDPhilosophers have a bad reputation for expressing themselves in a dry and boring way.The ideals for most philosophical writing are precision.clarity,and the sort of conceptual analysis that leaves no hair un-split.There is nothing wrong with clarity,precision,and the like —but this isn't the only way to dophilosophy.Outside academic ,abstract philosophical ideas are often expressed through literature,cinema,and song.There's nothing that grabs attention like a good story,and there are some great philosophical stories that delight and engage,rather than putting the reader to sleep.One of the great things about this is that,unlike formal philosophy,which tries to be very clear,stories don't wear their meanings on their sleeve —they require interpretation,and often express conflicting ideas for the reader to wrestle with.Consider what philosophers call the metaphysics(形而上学)of race —an area of philosophy that explorers the question of whether or not race is real.There are three main positions that you can take on these questions.You might think that a person's race is written in their genes(a position known as“biological realism”).Or you might think of race as socially real,like days of the week or currencies ("social constructionism").Finally,you might think that races are unreal —that they're more like leprechauns(一种魔法精灵)than they are like Thursdays or dollars(“anti-realism”).A great example of a story with social constructionist taking on race is George Schuyler's novel Black No More.In the book,a Black scientist named Crookman invents a procedure that makes Black people visually indistinguishable from Whites.Thousands of African Americans flock to Crookman's Black No More clinics and pay him their hard-earned cash to undergo the procedure.White racists can no longer distinguish those people who are "really"White from those who merely appear to be White.In a final episode,Crookman discovers that new Whites are actually a whiter shade of pale than those who were born that way,which kicks off a trend of sunbathing to darken one's skin-darkening it so as to look more White.Philosophically rich stories like this bring more technical works to life.They are stories to think with.32.What does the author think of philosophical stories?A.The meaning behind is very obvious.B.They am extremely precise and formal.C.They often cause conflicts among readers.D.They are engaging and inspire critical thinking.33.Which category might "Christmas"fall into according to paragraph 4?A.Social constructionism.C.Biological realism.B.Anti-realism.D.Literary realism.34.What is Black No More in paragraph 5 mainly about?A.Racial issues caused by skin colors.B.A society view on race and self-image:C.Black people accepted by the white society.D.The origin of sun bathing among white people.35.What is the best title of the text?A.Stories Made Easy C.Positions in PhilosophyB.Stories to Think withD.Nature of Philosophical Writing第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)Do Lobsters Feel Pain?The traditional method for cooking a lobster(龙虾)—boiling it alive —raises the question of whether or not lobsters feel pain. 36 .Lobsters go bad very quickly after they die,and eating a dead lobster,increases the risk of illness and reduces the quality of its flavor.However,if lobsters are capable of feeling pain,the method and others,such as storing the live lobster on ice,raise moral questions for chefs and lobster eaters alike.37 Lobsters have a peripheral system like humans,but instead of a single brain,they possess nerve cluster(神经簇).Because of this difference,some researchers argue lobsters are too dissimilar to vertebrates(脊椎动物)to feel pain.Nonetheless,lobsters do satisfy all of the standard for a pain response.Lobsters guard their injuries,learn to avoid dangerous situations,respond to anesthetics,and are believed to possess some level of consciousness.So most scientists believe that injuring a lobster causes physical pain.38 ,so it is now becoming illegal to boil lobsters alive or keep them on ice.Currently,boiling lobsters alive is illegal in Switzerland,New Zealand,and the Italian city Reggio Emilia.The most humane tool for cooking a lobster is the CrustaStun.This device electrocutes a lobster,making it unconscious in less than half a second or killing it in 5 to 10 seconds. 39 .Unfortunately,the CrustaStun is too expensive for most restaurants and people to afford.Some restaurants place a lobster in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer for a couple of hours,during which time it loses consciousness and dies. 40 ,but it is probably the most humane option for killing a lobster before cooking and eating it.A.This solution is not idealB.And then,it can be cut apart or boiledC.Lobsters are popular food in many countriesD.There is growing evidence that lobsters may feel painE.Scientists disagree over whether or not lobsters feel painF.Many restaurants choose more humane methods to cook itG.This cooking way is used to improve humans' dining

高二英语月考试题2018.9考试范围:Units1---3 考试时间:120分钟满分:150分一、听力部分(共30分)二、阅读理解(共30分)1.(8分)AFrancis Bacon,one of the most important philosophers(哲人)of England,was born in London and educated at Cambridge University.When he was only 15,he went to France to work for the English ambassador(大使).Two years later he went to England to study law.At the age of twenty three he was chosen to parliament(议会).His ideas about how scientists should study things in nature help to bring the modern way of thinking,called the scientific method.One of the Bacon best known books was his Essays.Each essay was a short piece of writing in which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying,conversation,friends and healthful living.In many of his books,Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they really exist in nature and then try to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it ter,by doing experiments,the scientists could see that any one cause would always have the same result.This method,which is called inductive reasoning,is used by all the scientists today,but it was new in Bacon’s time.(21)According to the passage we know that ________.A.Francis Bacon was the most important philosopher of EnglandB.Francis Bacon had good educationC.Francis Bacon worked for a French ambassador at the age of 15D.Francis Bacon stayed in France until he was 23(22)It can be known that Francis Bacon was famous for________.A.inventing the scientific method of studying things in natureB.his booksC.his method,inductive reasoningD.being a member of parliament(23)His essays gave many useful lessons on ________.A.studyingB.conversationC.friends and healthful livingD.All of the above.(24)The underlined phrase “inductive reasoning” in the last paragraph means________.A.discovering general laws from particular facts or examplesB.reaching a conclusion by reasoning from general laws to a particular caseC.studying things as they used to beD.studying things in a particular way2.(8分)BDogs are man's best friends.This everyday saying may contain some truth,but dogs are not the only animal friends that people like.For example,cats can be excellent house pets,too.People enjoy the friendship of cats.Cats love to keep close to their owners.Cats are quite playful.They love to run after balls,or play with anything hanging from a string. They especially enjoy playing when their owners play the game with them.Just like a dog,a cat can be trained to perform tricks(诡计)or avoid unwanted behaviour.Cats do not have to be walked.They get plenty of exercise in the house as they play,and they do their business in their litter boxes.So their owners only need to spend time cleaning their litter boxes.Washing a cat is almost never necessary because cats usually clean themselves.In addition,cats can be left alone at home for a few hours without any worry.Unlike some pets,most cats willnot destroy the furniture when left alone.They just go about their usual activities until their owners return.Cats are polite members of a family.Unlike dogs,cats do not make lots of loud noise. They walk very quietly.Also,cats don't often have “accidents”.Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box,and most cats will use it from that time on.Cats keep their energy by sleeping more than most animals,especially as they grow older.(25)From the passage,we can learn that ______.A.cats would rather play with themselvesB.cats often play tricks on their ownersC.many people think dogs are man's best friendsD.cats sleep less than any other animal does(26)What can be concluded(推断) from the passage?A.Cats are very easy to be kept as house pets.B.Cats need more time to do exercise than dogs.C.Cats are afraid of being left alone at home.D.Cats don't like to clean themselves.(27)In the fourth paragraph,we can learn that cats are ______.A.playfulB.cuteC.politeD.noisy(28)Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?A. B. C. D.3.(6分)Dolphins are not fish,but warmblooded animals.They live in groups,and speak to each other in their own language.In this way they are like other animals,such as bees and birds.But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals.Their brain is nearly the same size as our own,and they live a long time—at least twenty or thirty years.Like some other animals,dolphins use sound to help them find their way around.They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds,but the lower part of the mouth,called the jaw.Strangely,dolphins seem to like man,and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century.In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand,they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack.From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way.Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called the Penguin shot and wounded(伤害)Jack.He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area—except for the Penguin. Today,some people continue to kill dolphins,but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.(29)Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A.live in groupsB.have large brainsC.are warmbloodedD.have their own language(30)Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A.He was lonely and liked to be with people.B.They enjoyed playing with him.C.He was seriously wounded.D.They wanted his help.(31)By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A.dolphins are friendly and cleverB.people are cruel to animalsC.Jack is different from other dolphinsD.dolphins should be protected by law4.(8分)Without proper planning,tourism can cause problems.For example,too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of the country.If tourists create too much traffic,the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy.It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem.If tourism grows too quickly,people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry.This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand,if there is not enough tourism,people can losejobs.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels,airports,firstclass roads,and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions.For example,a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build.If this room is not used most of the time,the owners of the hotel will lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many other support facilities as well,including roads to get to the hotel,electricity,sewers(下水道)to handle waste,and water.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are not used because there are not enough tourists,jobs and money are lost.(32)Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A.It is extremely important to develop tourism.B.Building roads and hotels is important.C.Support facilities are highly necessary.D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.(33)The underlined word “inhabitants”(in Paragraph 1)probably means ______.A.citizensB.passengersC. populationD.tourists(34)Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ______.A.a bad effect on other industriesB.a change of tourists' customsC.overcrowdedness of places of interestD.pressure on traffic(35)It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.the author doesn't like tourism developing so fastB.local people will benefit from tourist attractionC.other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism muchD.we can't build too many support facilities三、阅读填空(共10分)5.(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。

高二一月月考(英语)试题含答案
高二一月月考(英语)(考试总分:120 分)一、阅读理解(本题共计3小题,总分25分)1.(7.5分)As a marathon runner and regular gym fan, physical fitness was my life. All that changed in May 1997 when I survived a near-deadly car accident. After several weeks in unconsciousness, I woke up with a raspy(沙哑的) voice and no balance. I had to relearn how to sit, stand, walk and move about. Seven years of physical treatment later, I began walking on my own, though slowly and haltingly(跛). I keep a walker around for when I need to move quickly.During all these years of recovery, I remained a gym fan. As I watched the personal trainers working with their customers, I knew I was as fit as they were. So I decided this would be my new purpose. I started studying for the personal training certification exam immediately. Once I did, my health club immediately hired me.However, if you don’t obtain customers, you don’t work. Who was going to choose me with a health club full of able-bodied trainers? A medical consultant suggested I teach group exercise classes in senior homes. Over time, I’ve been able to add more classes, such as balance exercises. Balance work is so important for older people. And for me too! Now the exercises I teach are helping me as much as they do my class. The years as a physical treatment patient have given me lots of cues to use as I teach my classes.A personal trainer —on a walker? It’s not something you see every day. While my students aren’t athletes or body builders, working with seniors gives me an audience that appreciates what I have overcome through regular exercise. I’m able to encourage them beyond what they thought they could do. No longer do my disabilities embarrass me or make me feel ashamed. They have led me to a new purpose in life: inspiring and encouraging thoseI serve.21. What new career would the author take up?A. A gym athlete.B. A marathon runner.C. A physical fitness instructor.D. A physical treatment consultant.22. What inspired the author to work again?A. His audience.B. Others’advice.C. His disabilities.D. The love for gym.23. Why did the author serve the old people?A. He was also a senior with disabilities.B. He couldn’t obtain young customers.C. He had much experience in the senior health.D. He was not as professional as the other personal trainers.2.(10分)As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆).”According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories: that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.24. The passage begins with two questions to _________.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author’s attitudeC. describe how to use the InternetD. explain how to store information25. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to understand the information.D. The second group did not understand the information.26. In transactive memory, people _________.A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD.remember how to find the information27. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.3.(7.5分)From July to October every year, about a quarter of the world’s blue whales feed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. But the whales currently face a major threat in their favorite feeding area. Ships carrying cargo (货物)sail in the same area at the same time. All too often, the whales’ paths and the ships’ travel lines overlap (重叠), and a ship will hit a whale.According to a new study, these ship strikes have become a serious threat to the overall population of the world’s blue whales. Only about 10,000 of the creatures still exist worldwide. Blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on Earth. Even so, if hit by a container ship, a blue whale will likely die from its injuries.In 2007 alone, large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says that because there are so few whales already, losing three to five from the California whale population every year is a significant loss. “The estimated population of blue whalesin this part of the Pacific is 2,500”, says Sean Hastings, a NOAA analyst. “So every whale counts toward this species moving off the endangered-species list.”Now, marine scientists must figure out how to protect the whales from the giant container ships. One very simple program is already under way in the Santa Barbara Channel, a waterway that separates mainland California from the nearby Channel Islands.The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to voluntarily slow down. Sailing slower will allow the ships crew (船员)more time to change course before hitting a whale.Several of the world’s largest shipping lines are set to participate in the new program. For every ship that passes through the Santa Barbara Channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots (海里/小时), the company that owns the ship will be paid $2,500.28. From Paragraph 1, we can know that_____.A. people intend to illegally hunt blue whales for moneyB. large ships often carrying goods may pollute the seaC. the container ships may hit the blue whales frequentlyD. there is fewer fish in blue whales favorite feeding area29. According to Sean Hastings, it’s inferred that .A. the number of the blue whales is decreasing sharply.B. the blue whales are still on the endangered-species list.C. most of the world’s blue whales live in the Pacific Ocean.D. blue whales are often disturbed by other endangered creatures.30. What are the last three paragraphs mainly about?A. The basic responsibility of a sailor.B. Measures to protect the blue whales.C. The world’s largest shipping lines.D. Ways to slow down the speed of the ships.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)4.(10分)How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. 31. _______ Yes, evenstudents of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here are some tips for you:1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. 32._______ It’s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have enough time for both work and play.2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.3. 33._______ Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. 34._______ Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performances on test.5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide more than grades. 35. _______A. Be volunteer to raise questions.B.

The students were not behaving themselves.B. The heated discussions angered the headmaster.C. He thought the headmaster would scold him.D. The headmaster was looking at his students' papers.4.(8分)CSan Francisco has decided that its city government workers can’t use computer programs that recognize faces. It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯),but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.(8分)DMany people think of the brain as a mystery(神秘).They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works.When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb(愚笨的)—and stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink(萎缩)and you get weaker.That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells(神经细胞).Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow.Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things.32.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.33.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible34.Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care of B.a good communication between personsC.help from scientists D.our learning new things35.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Strong B.Lovely C.Smart D.Active三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)6.(10分)How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that. As certain as the sun will rise, our inboxes will be full by mid-morning.Honestly, we’ve done it to ourselves. We depend too much on it to communicate and as a result, we have made ourselves pay attention to every one of them. This is terrible, 37 Every time an e-mail interrupts you, it costs time, money, and brainpower.Here are some of my best tips to manage emails:38 You can’t get into work if you check emails every ten minutes. Instead, you should set certain times to check your inbox, like the top of every hour or every 90 minutes. Set a timer on your phone and stick to it.Scan your inbox. 39 At the same time, leave out everything that is unnecessary and answer timely requests first.40 Instead of creating an email, try speaking with the person you want to communicate with. Often, a five-minute conversation on the line is much better than an email.e a phone.B.Set a schedule.C.Talk to the person.D.Email is our friend and the enemy.E.Because email can interrupt our work and life.F.Looking through the emails quickly can save your time.G.Email is becoming more and more important in our lives四、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分30分)7.(30分)I’ve read lots of stories about family memories.In those 41, I’ve found voice of sadness and longing.It’s true that so much in our daily lives makes us 42 all the time.We find ourselves with less and less time to spend with our 43and friends.I’ve had the same 44 myself.I used to have 45times with my grandfather when we lived together.When I was very young, I often enjoyed spending time in his 46, watching the flowers and watering the fruit trees.But as I grew up, I 47 became “selfish”.Once, when I was 6, we went shopping together.As we took the wrong bus and ended up getting 48 , unable to find our way back, I couldn’t stay 49and shouted rudely in his face.I was so stubborn that I wouldn’t say sorry 50 returning home, thinking I had done nothing wrong.Now I 51 how ridiculous I was at the time!
