河南高二高中英语期末考试带答案解析
河南高二高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs. He didn't look like any doctor I'd ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting theories about planting trees. He believed in the principle: "No pains, no gains". He hardly watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional wisdom. Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker. He said you had to make things tough for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water. So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he'd beat them with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some twenty five years ago. They were all tall and strong.I planted a couple of trees myself a few years ago. Two years of attending these trees meant they grew up weak. Whenever a cold wind blew, their branches trembled. Adversity(逆境) seemed to benefit Doctor Gibb's trees in ways comfort and ease never could.Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to meet with hardship. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won't be torn apart.【1】With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs often __________.A．paid little attention to themB．kept watering them every morningC．talked to them to get their attentionD．beat them to make them grow deep roots【2】What does the author think of the way Doctor Gibbs planted trees?A．Strange and harmful.B．Interesting and funny.C．Cruel and unacceptable.D．Original and reasonable.[【3】Which prayer does the author wish for his sons?A．Meet people like Dr Gibbs in the future.B．Be able to stand the rain and wind in their lives.C．Have an easy life, without too much to worry about.D．Have good luck, encountering less hardship in their life.【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Prayers for my sonsB．Doctor Gibbs and his treesC．Growing rootsD．Watering trees2.How to Be a WinnerSir Steven RedgraveWinner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals“In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病). Believing my career was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”Karen PickeringSwimming World Champion“I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success —you can’t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, howev er small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”Kirsten BestPoet & Writer“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve something. Then there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’, ‘peace’ or ‘focus’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological(心理的) tool.”【1】What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about?A．Difficulties influenced his career.B．Specialists offered him medical advice.C．Training helped him defeat his disease.D．He overcame the shadow of illness to win.【2】What does Karen Pickering put on top of her diary?A．Her achievements.B．Her daily happenings.C．Her training schedule.D．Her sports career.【3】According to the passage, what do the three people have in common?A．Courage.B．Devotion.C．Hard work.D．Self-confidence.3.Lions are opportunists. They prefer to eat without having to do too much work. When resting in the shade, they are also watching the sky to see what is flying by, and even in the heat of the day they will suddenly start up and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on. If another animal has made a kill, they will drive it off and take the dill for themselves. A grown lion can easily eat 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding. Often they eat until it seems painful for them to lie down.The lionesses (母狮) , being thinner and faster, are better hunters (猎手) than the males (雄狮). But the males don’t mind. After the ki ll they move in and take the test share.Most kills are made at night or just before daybreak. We have seen many, many daylight attempts but only ten kills. Roughly, it’s about twenty daytime attempts for one kill.When lions are hiding for an attack by a water hole, they wait patiently and can charge at any second. The kill is the exciting moment in the day-to-day life of the lion, since these great animals spend most of their time, about 20 hours a day, sleeping and resting.Lions are social cats, and when they are having a rest, they love to touch each other. After drinking at a water hole, a lioness rests her head on another’s back. When walking, young lions often touch faces with older ones, an act of close ties among members of the group.【1】By describ ing lions as “opportunists” in the first paragraph, the author means to say that lions _______. A．are cruel animalsB．are clever animalsC．like to take advantage of other animalsD．like to take every chance to eat【2】According to the text, which of the following is true?A．Lions make most kills in the daytime.B．Males care more about eating than active killing.C．Lions are curious about things happening around them.D．It doesn’t take lions too much time to make a kill.【3】How can we know that lions are social animals?[A．They depend on each other.B．They look after each other well.C．They readily share what they have.D．They enjoy each other’s company.【4】What would be the best title for the text?A．Powerful LionsB．Lions at Work and PlayC．Lions, Social CatsD．Lions, Skilled Hunters4.Children who spend more time outdoors may have a lower risk of becoming nearsighted, new research suggests.In the study, researchers looked at about 1,900 schoolchildren. The scientists found that the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop nearsightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors. Moreover, among the kids who did become nearsighted during the study, the degree to which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors.The researchers selected six schools and required the children, whose average age was 7 at the start of the study, to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for three years. The parents of these children were also encouraged to engage their children in outdoor activities after school, especially during weekends and holidays. The other half of the children, from another six schools, continued their usual activity patterns. After three years, 30.4 percent of the kids in the intervention(干预) group had become nearsighted, compared with 38.5 percent of the kids in the other group.It is not clear exactly why spending more time outside would benefit children’s eyesight, the researchers said. However, some research has suggested that the higher levels of light intensity found outdoors may increase the release of the chemical dopamine(多巴胺) of the eye. In turn, dopamine is known to restrain（抑制） the type of growth in the eye that is associated with nearsightedness.Based on the new results, the researchers recommend that children spend more time outdoors because of the potential benefits to their eyesight. However, it’s important to protect kids’ skin and eyes from UV light, which can be damaging.【1】What did the children in the intervention group do during each school day?A．Attend an extra class of outdoor activities.B．Continue to do their usual activities.C．Spend one hour in doing eye exercises.D．Participate in outdoor activities with parents.【2】What can be inferred about the chemical dopamine?A．It can contribute to poor sight.B．It can damage people’s brain.C．It is beneficial to eyesight.D．It means low levels of light intensity.【3】What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A．How to design outdoor activities for kids.B．How to prevent kids becoming nearsighted.C．How to protect kids’ skin and eyes from UV light.D．How to encourage kids to join in outdoor activities.【4】Which can serve as the best title for the passage?A．The More Time Outdoors, the BetterB．Kids May See Better if They Play OutsideC．It’s Time to Engage Kids in Outdoor ActivitiesD．Researchers Found a Cure for Nearsightedness二、其他If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. 【1】“There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount(越过) the pyramids —the eagle and the snail.”If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention. I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand.【2】 The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, “I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although I wished to do so,” and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.If I were a boy again, I would culti vate courage. “Nothing is so mild and gentle as courage, nothing so cruel and pitiless as cowardice (怯懦),” says a wise author.【3】The fear of ill exceeds(超过) the ill we fear. Dangers will arise in any career, but presence of mind will often conquer the worst of them.【4】If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. Life is very much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, it smiles back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return. Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that come in contact with it.【5】I might write pages on the importance of learning very early in life to gain that point where a young boy can stand straight and decline doing an unworthy act because it is unworthy.Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, try still harder to make others happy.A．If we want light, we must conquer darkness.B．If I were a boy again, I would school m yself to say “No” oftener.C．We too often borrow trouble, and expect that may never appear.D．I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.E. If I were a boy again, I would demand of myself more courtesy towards my companions and friends and indeed towards strangers as well.F. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results.G. Be prepared for any fate, and there is no harm to be feared.三、完形填空Every New Year's Eve in the past, we had breakfast at Aunt Dot's house.

They forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way.五、短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

Yet, the most frightening thing of all about the night is that twice as many children are illed while out and about on Hallween compared to any other day of the year, according to a study by Safe ids Worldwide. It can also be a worrying time for others, especially elderly people living alone. Bu man y people thin it’s just harmless fun.But is it harmless fun?Police forces across Britain are giving warnings about Halloween night. They are asing all those wishing to celebrate Halloween this year to respect those who don’t want to join in.Some forces, lie West Mercia Police, have produced “Sorry, No Tric or Treat” posters which can be downloaded from their website, and put up in windows. They want people to send them to the old or anyone who may be frightened by ghosts(鬼)nocing on their doors.A spoesm an said “Children should not call on houses where the posters are put up, neither should they call on strangers, as this can put young people at ris and also mae some house owners anious, especially those who are elderly or living alone.”The police want all tric or treaters to remember that disturbing other people or throwing objects at their homes or cars are all criminal offences(刑事罪). “What may start off as a bit of fun could end up with someone getting a criminal record,” they warn. “Parents may want t o consider having a Halloween party at home, instead.”ent Police are warning young people never to go into the home of someone they don’t now----and to remember not to frighten people.Warwicshire Police are also warning that trics may seem lie harmless fun but can cause trouble to others. They say behaviour such as throwing eggs can quicly cross the line between beinganti-social and causing criminal damage. This can result in fines of ￡2,500 for small offences.28.

To mae some people free from harm31. Which of the following things is encouraged by the police during Halloween?A. Having a Halloween party at homeB. Inviting the elderly to join in the celebrationC. Going tric or treating from door to doorD. Giving strangers a good frightDSometimes the toughest thing about feelings is sharing them with others．Sharing your feelings helps you whether your feelings are wonderful or terrible．Sharing also helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you．But how?You can’t tell your friends what’s inside your bacpac if you don’t now what’s in there yourself．Feelings are the same way．Before you can share them with anyone，you have to figure out what feelings you have．Maing a list of your feelings can help．You can do this in your mind or by writing it out or evenby drawing pictures．Is something bothering you?

河南高二高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.Bandhavgarh National Park in India is best known for its amazing setting, as well as having the highest concentration of tigers in India. In addition to tigers, there are also bears, deer, wolves, birds, etc.Location: In Madhya Pradesh state, almost 200 kilometers northeast of Jabalpur. The nearest village is Tala, which is the access point of the park.Opening Hours and Safari (游猎) TimesSafaris operate twice a day, starting at dawn until late morning, and mid afternoon until sunset. The best time to visit the park is early in the morning or after 7 p.m. to spot the animals. The park is closed from July 1 to September 30 due to the monsoon season (季风季节).Bandhavgarh ZonesBandhavgarh is divided into three main zones: Tala (the park’s best zone, with the mo st tigers), Magdhi (the second best zone to see tigers), and Khitauli (scenic and less visited, although tiger sightings do occur there; particularly good for birding).Entry Fees and Charges for Jeep SafarisBandhavgarh has become expensive to visit in recent years. Entry fees have increased since October 2014. When going on a safari, separate fees must be paid for park entry and jeep hire. Entry tickets are priced per vehicle (up to six people). For 2015-16, park entry tickets cost as follows:·Tala Zone: 2,400 rupees for Indians, 4,800 rupees for foreigners. (Up to six people)·Other Zones: 1,200 rupees for Indians, 2,400 rupees for foreigners. (Up to six people)Jeep HireExpect to pay about 2,200 rupees to hire a jeep, in addition to the entry cost. This can be done at the park entrance. All hotels can arrange jeep hire and tours, but at a higher rate. It’s much less trouble though. Besides, unlike many national parks in India, it’s possible to take private vehicles into Bandhavgarh.【1】When can you visit the park?A．In July.B．In August.C．In September.D．In October.【2】How much should five Americans pay for entry fees to visit Magdhi Zone?A．1,200 rupees.B．2,400 rupees.C．4,800 rupees.D．6,000 rupees.【3】Which of the following statements is TRUE about jeep hire in the park?A．Tourists don’t have to hire jeeps.B．Hiring jeeps from hotels costs less money.[C．Tourists can only hire a jeep from the park.D．Jeep hire fees are included in the entry cost.2.One morning, my newspaper wasn’t delivered on time. Since I always brought it to work, it upset me that I would have to pick one up on my way to work. After breakfast, I was already running late, but figured I could make it if I hurried.As I pulled into the parking lot of the store, I noticed a young man in a wheelchair who seemed to be struggling. “Someone else will stop and help him,” I thought.However, no one stopped. I got out, and walked over to see what the trouble was.“Is there anything I can do?” I asked. It was then that I noticed he wasn’t able to speak, and was still struggling with the chair.I looked down at the chair and noticed that the clamps (夹具) holding the electronic keyboard had apparently become loose causing the equipment to slip down, out of his reach.I pulled it back into place and then re-tightened the clamps. He hit a key on the keyboard. An electronic voice told me, “Thank you.” He then found the control that steered (操纵) the chair, turned and left.I got back in my car and headed off to work, completely forgetting my newspaper. As I drove, I felt a deep gratitude (感激). I was truly blessed to have the physical abilities that allow me to live a normal life. Here was thisyoung man who relied on machines to get around and communicate. He probably dreamed about doing all the things that I thought were normal and simple.It’s funny; fifteen minutes before that happened, I was whining because my morning paper hadn’t arrived on time.I was glad I helped the young man, because he helped me gain a new viewpoint on everything I had in my life. 【1】Why did the author stop at the store?A．To do his job.B．To have breakfast.C．To buy a newspaper.D．To drive a colleague to work.【2】What was the young man trying to reach?A．The clamps.B．The car key.C．The wheelchair.D．The electronic keyboard.【3】What does the underlined word “whining” in the last paragraph mean?A．Complaining.B．Worrying.C．Arguing.D．Crying.【4】What did the author learn from the experience?A．Treasure what we have.B．Treat the disabled nicely.C．Technology has changed our lives.D．Don’s get annoyed over small things.3.One of America’s best-known artist colonies, the MacDowell Colony, will turn 110 next year. It is a place where artists of all types can sweep away distractions (令人分心的事物) and just create.MacDowell’s operations are funded by foundations, corporations and in dividuals. Writers, composers, photographers, filmmakers and sculptors — both famous and unknown —compete for the 32 free studios at the place. Once accepted, an artist can stay for as little as a couple of weeks, or as long as a couple of months. When they arrive, artists find a kind of isolation (隔绝) hard to find in our world. There’s no phone. No fax. No friends. No fami ly. It’s just a cabin in the snowy woods.Writer Emily Raboteau lives in New York City. She came to MacDowell to work on a novel. She received a desk, chairs, pencil and paper — and ice grippers. The walk from one isolated, one-room studio to another is icy, so colony residents (居住的人) fasten the ice grippers to the bottom of their shoes.Another colony resident, Belfast composer Elaine Agnew, plays a piece called “To a Wild Rose,” written by Edward MacDowell. She says it’s so famous that every pianist in th e world has played the tune. A hundred years ago, Macdowell owned the land where the colony now sits. He liked its isolation and his ability to get work done there. After his death, his wife, Marion, encouraged other artists to come.And for the last century, artists have accepted the invitation, coming to step outside of their daily lives for a short time. Privacy is respected, but cooperation and discussion is common.Screenwriter Kit Carson — who wrote Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and the film adaptation of Sam Shepherd’s play Paris, Texas — has visited MacDowell twice. He says that the interdisciplinary (学科间的) discussion there is valuable.“You sit around at dinner, talking, and then somebody runs off and brings you back some stuff and shows it to you,” he says. “That, I didn’t realize, was part of the magic here, because people are really open to showing their opinions here.”【1】What do the colony residents have in common?A．They find it hard to survive the loneliness.B．They usually stay in the colony for months.C．They are already famous in their own field.D．They are nearly cut off from the outside world.【2】Why does the author mention Elaine Agnew?A．To show the wide range of the residents.B．To introduce the origin of the colony.C．To admire her great musical talent.D．To show respect for MacDowell.【3】Where does the magic of the MacDowell Colony lie according to Kit Carson?A．It has a homely feel.B．It values work-play balance.C．It encourages privacy greatly.D．It has an idea-sharing atmosphere.【4】What would be the best title for the text?A．Wonderland for artists.B．Creativity at work.C．Happy birthday!D．Power of silence.4.George Aldrich, whose official title is chemical specialist, works at NASA’s White Sands Test Facility in New Mexico. He uses his nose to protect astronauts from unpleasant or harmful odors (气味). His near four-decade career has involved smelling objects from technical handbooks to astronauts’ personal things.It’s crucial that all items taken aboard the International Space Station (ISS) are odorless. Since astronauts are allowed to bring personal items aboard, all their objects must be smell-checked before leaving Earth. In a video provided by Science Channel, Aldrich relates on specific occasion when an astronaut wanted to build a ship in a bottle in space. Everything in the ship-building process had to be sniffed — right down to the glue.Aldrich and his team are responsible for making sure that objects are not only odorless but also harmless to astronauts. When the ISS heats up, a process called off-gassing occurs, which means chemicals flow out from certain substances (物质). Objects that would be safe on Earth could give off unpleasant odors or become dangerous when exposed to high temperatures in the ISS’s unique environment.Of course, humans aren’t the only testers or the first to be exposed to potentially dangerous objects. Before Aldrich sticks his nose into a substance, it has been examined by machines. Even though machines can detect unsafe substances, computers cannot tell exactly how things smell to humans. While something could be technically fine, it could be smelly to an astronaut.Aldrich’s nose is not alone there. He is the head of a hard-sniffing team of smell testers. Together they smell each object and rate it on a scale (等级) of 1 to 4. According to NASA, 1 cannot be detected, and 4 is considered not bearable. After the scientists conclude their tests, the scores are averaged. If an item is rated more than 2.4 on the scale, it fails the test and is not allowed on the flight.【1】Which can describe the smell check from Paragraph 2?A．Quite dangerous.B．Extremely strict.C．Rather boring.D．Very complex.【2】What is a threat to astronauts’ safety at the ISS?A．Negative emotions.B．Odor-related disease.C．The off-gassing process.D．Changes in temperature.【3】What should be done before Aldrich and his team start their work?A．Using machines to test objects.B．Having a meeting to make the scale.C．Using computers to examine their noses.D．Listing potentially dangerous substances.【4】What is the text mainly about?A．An unusual smell tester.B．Astronauts’ life at the ISS.C．Strong odors in a spaceship.D．The smell of personal items.二、其他How to Do Man-on-the-Street InterviewsThe man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the sport. 【1】 But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy. When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?”【2】Hit the streets with confidence.【3】Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick wa y to get people to warm up to you.Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don’t get discouraged.●【4】Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won’t be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten.【5】● If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don’t leave work without them.A．Limit your time.B．As you approach people, be polite.C．If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.D．For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.G. With a que stion like this, you will get more than a “Yes” or “No” reply.三、完形填空At my heaviest I weighed 370 pounds.

The 1962 film adaptation starring Gregory Peck won three Academy Awards.For decades, the book was Lee’s only major work of published fiction, but it was hugely influential for generations of US readers. It has sold more than 10 million copies, and is one of the most widely taught novels in the US schools. In 2007 she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for her contributions to literature.Lee wanted to live a simple life and was never comfortable with the attention the novel won her, and she practically disappeared from public life after it appeared. The world, however, continued waiting for a new novel from her, and on occasion she suggested that she had a story in progress.In 2015, a book did come out. Go Set a Watchman was more of a first draft, featuring Scout, the young girl who was the main character of To Kill a Mockingbird. Go Set a Watchman tells a story of Scout as an adult. Accusations arose that the 89-year-old Lee was not able to agree to the manuscript’s release，and that various parties had signed on her behalf.Though Lee moved to New York in 1949, she spent many years guarding her privacy (隐私) in Monroeville, which served as the clear inspiration for the setting in To Kill a Mockingbird.In 2007, Lee suffered a stroke (中风), but recovered and later settled in Monroeville permanently to care for her sister, Alice, who died in 2014. She was said to eat breakfast every morning at the same fast-food spot, and was friendly with her neighbors. The countless Americans knew her only through her works，and they will undoubtedly miss her. 4．What can be learned about Harper Lee from the first two paragraphs?A．She was regarded the greatest writer in America.B．She made great contributions to American literature.C．She once starred in a film adapted from her own novel.D．She got her novels well accepted in most American schools.5．Why did Harper Lee disappear from public life after her first novel came out?A．She tried to get out of accusations.B．She wanted to write another novel.C．She intended to avoid being bothered.D．She wasn’t comfortable with her novel’s influe nce.6．What can we learn about Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman?A．It tells her own life story.B．It is adapted into a famous film.C．It won her lots of honors and awards.D．It continues the story of her earlier one.7．What can be inferred about Harper Lee from the last paragraph?A．She died of a stroke in 2014.B．She will be remembered forever.C．She cared much for her neighbors.D．She led a lonely life in her later life.Scientists have created the world's first living, self-healing robots using stem cells (干细胞) from frogs. Named xenobots after the African clawed frog from which they take their stem cells, the ''machines'' are less than a millimeter wide — small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim, survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. ''These are entirely new life forms, '' said the University of Vermont, which conducted the research with Tufts University's Allen Discovery Center.The researchers removed living stem cells from frog embryos (胚胎), and left them to hatch. Then, the cells were cut and reshaped into specific ''body forms'' designed by a supercomputer — forms ''never seen in nature''，according to a news release from the University of Vermont.Xenobots even have regenerative abilities. When the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving. They don’t look like traditional robots - they have no shiny clothing or robotic arms. Instead, they look more like a tiny drop of moving pink flesh. The researchers say this is deliberate — this ''biological machine'' can achieve things typical robotsof steel and plastic cannot. ''Traditional robots degrade over time and can produce harmful ecological and health side effects, '' researchers said in the study. ''As biological machines, xenobots are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health.''According to the researchers, these robots could be used to clean up radioactive waste, collect microplastics in the oceans, or even carry medicine inside human bodies. Aside from these immediate practical tasks, they could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology - opening the doors to future advancement in human health and longevity. This sounds like something from a sci-fi movie. Some people even voiced their concern that humans might be taken control of by those xenobots. However, the researchers in the study say there is no need for alarm. They can't reproduce or evolve (进化).8．What is this passage mainly about?A．The advantages of a medical robot.B．The application of robots in biology.C．The general introduction of a living robot.D．The medical value of African clawed frogs.9．The underlined word ''regenerative'' in Paragraph 3 probably means ''________''. A．living longer B．growing againC．replacing old cells D．defending against attacks10．What can we know about xenobots?A．They can do everything that traditional robots can.B．They can break up steel and plastic while degrading.C．They are able to cure people of all kinds of diseases.D．They are harmless to the environment and human health.11．What is the researchers' attitude to the development of xenobots?A．Doubtful. B．Positive.C．Cautious. D．Casual.The remains of an ancient ape (猿) found in Bavaria suggest that humans' ancestors began standing upright millions of years earlier than previously thought.An international team of researchers said the fossilized skeleton (化石骨骼) of a male ape that lived in the warm and damp forests of what is now southern Germany was quite similar to modem human bones. In a paper published by the journal Nature, they concluded that thepreviously unknown species — named Danuvius guggenmosi — could walk on two legs but also climb like an ape.''The findings raise fundamental questions about our previous understanding of the evolution of the great apes and humans, '' said Madelaine Boehme, who led the research.The question of when apes could walk on two legs has fascinated scientists since Charles Darwin first argued that they were the ancestors of humans. Previous fossil records of apes with an upright move — found in Crete and Kenya — dated only as far back as 6 million years. These apes are called Toumai.Boehme, along with researchers from Bulgaria, Canada and the United States, examined more than 15,000 bones recovered from the archaeological remains found. Among the remains they were able to piece together were primate (灵长目动物) fossils belonging to 4 individuals that lived 11.62 million years ago. The most complete, an adult male, likely stood about 1 meter tall, weighed 31 kilograms and looked similar to modern-day bonobos, a species of chimp.Like humans, Danuvius had an S-shaped backbone to hold its body upright while standing. Unlike humans, though, it had a powerful big toe that would have allowed it to grab branches with its foot easily.Fred Spoor, a biologist at the Natural History Museum in London, called the fossil finds ''fantastic'', but said they would likely be denied or suspected by others, especially because they could challenge many existing ideas about evolution.12．Where did the scientists find the fossilized ape skeleton?A．Germany. B．Canada.C．Bulgaria. D．Kenya.13．What can we infer about Danuvius guggenmosi?A．It was a species of chimp.B．It lived in Crete and Kenya.C．It could walk with a backbone.D．It existed much earlier than Toumai.14．How does Spoor feel about the finding?A．It is the most fantastic one.B．It is a support to evolution.C．It may cause lots of debate.D．It denies the previous ideas.15．What might be the best title for this text?A．Legend of Humans' AncestorsB．The Secrets Uncovered from FossilsC．The Oldest Example of Upright Ape FoundD．Recent Findings against the Theory of Evolution二、七选五Whenever I moved to a new city, the first thing I did was to hire a bicycle. Why? 16．You travel much faster than on foot and you notice so much more of your surroundings than when in a bus or a car. It's more appealing to wander down small streets if they seem interesting, as you can quickly get back to the main road. Besides, I soon discovered more benefits of cycling.A bicycle means that fewer places, especially in a small city like the one where I live now, feel far away. For example, cycling to work takes me half the time that it would to walk, 17．Of course, there are obvious health benefits of cycling — a bit of extra movement as part of your daily routine can help you keep fit and healthy. Cycling on my way to work also makes me feel more energetic in the mornings.18．While cars pollute the environment，bicycles are carbon neutral (碳平衡的). Furthermore, thanks to being petrol-free, bicycles are cheaper to run, buy and fix than cars. Even if you don't own a car，a bicycle can pay for itself when compared to the price of bus tickets.19．Always wear a helmet, pay attention to other traffic and don't forget your lights at night. Make sure you know the road rules, especially in a new place. Some cities are more bicycle-friendly than others. 20．Luckily, where I live now is quite easy to ride a bicycle around, thanks to having lots of cycle lanes and not too many hills!A．However, be careful when you are cycling.B．But sometimes city roads are difficult for cyclists.C．I should learn to ride safely on the right of the road.D．Importantly, cycling also helps to decrease your carbon footprint.E.Cycling to work is fit for whoever wants to save their pocket money.F.Riding a bicycle also means you aren't limited by the bus timetables.G.Seeing a city by bicycle is perfect for settling in and learning your way around.三、完形填空There was snow last night, followed by a freezing rain. It 21 everything with a thin layer of ice，including the highways，creating a 22 situation.Going to the store to buy some goods, I had 23 in crossing the highway because of the ice.

河南高二高中英语期末考试带答案解析
河南高二高中英语期末考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.What’s going on under Liverpool?A Rainy Day in LiverpoolDark clouds appear over the River Mersey and a cold wind is blowing. A few rain drops are beginning to fall. We’re in the famous city of Liverpool and we’re going to spend this rainy day in the Williamson Tunnels.An Interesting Life StoryJoseph Williamson was born into a poor family in 1769，but left home and went to work for a tobacco company aged 11. He began at the bottom, and finally became head of the business.An Unsolved MysteryNobody knows why Williamson dug tunnels under most of Liverpool, but many think it was to create jobs. Perhaps half of Liverpool’s population worked for him. The industry of war had made enormous amounts of money, but now Liverpool was in a terrible financial situation.The King of Edge HillI went on a guided tour starting close to where his empire began in Edge Hill. In the tunnels, the steps leading from rooms below ground to those buildings, which no longer exist, seem particularly ghostly.Incredible EngineeringWe go into the Double Tunnel. It’s just been discovered that it’s actually a triple tunnel - but nobody knows why the three tunnels were built on top of each other.We finish the tour and decide we’ll have a coffee in the Williamson Tunnels Cafe Bar. There, I notice lots of flyers for bands and theater groups that are coming to play there.Why Liverpool?Apart from the obvious attractions like the football clubs, or anything to do with the Beatles, Liverpool has a lot to offer. Princes Park and Croxteth Park were royal hunting grounds and the trees are 200 years old. Renshaw Street displays are an unusual mix of architecture styles. The nightlife is exciting. If you want to experience a part of the British Isles with a character entirely different from London, you should definitely come to Liverpool.【1】Which of the following is TRUE about Joseph Williamson?A．He was born in the early 1700s.B．He left home when he turned 18.C．He worked for a tobacco company when he was young.D．He started his business by himself but ended up broke.【2】Where did Williamson start his business?A．Princes Park.B．Edge Hill.C．Croxteth Park.D．Renshaw Street.【3】What can you do in Liverpool?a. Join football clubs.b. Enjoy Beatles music.c. Visit famous tourist spots.d. Enjoy the beautiful beach.A．abd B．bcdC．acd D．abc2.In January, 2016, Harry Styles made a bold decision. He left the popular boy band One Direction and went solo (单飞). Now he is making his own voice heard. The 23-year-old British singer released his first solo single called Sign of the Times. His self-titled album (个人同名专辑) is coming out on May 12.Going solo is a journey for him to find his identity (身份). Though at the time, he was uncertain about his future, he kept a word in his mind - “honesty”. “I didn’t want to write ‘stories’,” he told Rolling Stone. “I wanted to write my stories, things that happened to me. The number-one thing was I wanted to be honest. I hadn’t done that before.”He is indeed full of stories since beginning his solo career. Last fall, he spent two months recording on a remote island in Jamaica (牙买加).Along with some musicians, he filled a two-floor house with instruments. They hungout at the bar that looked like a tree house. Many mornings began with a swim in the river down the hill. They watched many romantic comedies. Styles always held a black notebook and looked like a college student who was studying, Rolling Stone reported.His coming album is about rock music. In fact, he grew up with it. His father Desmond was a rock music fan. When Styles was very young, he danced to The Dark Side of the Moon, a classic song by British rock band Pink Floyd. “I couldn’t really get it. But I just remember (thinking that) this is really cool.”Harry said, “At the very beginning, all I wanted was to be the granddad with the best stories.” Surel y, now he is on the right track (轨道).【1】Why did Styles go solo?A．He wanted to travel with his friends.B．He was certain that he would succeed.C．He wanted to be independent from the hand.D．He wanted to do the things that he hadn’t done before.【2】From the article, which of the followings is true?A．Styles，next album is about his father.B．Styles wanted to be a man with “stories”.C．He left the band because of its dishonesty.D．Styles couldn’t find his identity after going solo.【3】What Styles did on the island in Jamaica didn’t include .A．making a record B．hanging out at the barC．swimming in the river D．studying like a college student.【4】What is the article mainly about?A．Styles’ “stories” about his solo career.B．Styles’ favoriate sportsC．The band One Direction D．Styles’ achievements in music.3.French writer Frantz Fanon once said: “To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.” Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today’s changing world.After a year that was politically unstable, it’s not hard to understand the fact that people’s political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is “clicktivism”, a compound of “click” and “activism”. It refers to “armchair activists” — people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And “otherize” is a verb for “other” that means to alienate (使疏远) people who are different from ourselves — whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality. Lifesty le is also changing our language. For example, “fitspiration” — a compound of fit and inspiration — refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase “climate refugee” — someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change — reflects people’s concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. “People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,” he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.【1】What is the article mainly about?A．Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B．The application of new words and phrases.C．How a language mirrors the changing world.D．The impact of social media on our language.【2】The underlined word “coin” in the second-to-last paragraph probably means ________.A．use B．recordC．change D．create【3】How is the article mainly developed?A．By giving examples.B．By making comparisons.C．By following a timeline.D．By presenting research findings.【4】According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should ________.A．be easy to remember B．have unique meaningsC．reflect the changing world D．be meaningful, expressive and catchy4.Being seen in a fancy sports car or enjoying a beach holiday in a five-star hotel were once signs of having‘‘made it”.But a new study suggested that having people think of you as constantly busy and overworked is now a far better way to show social status.According to Harvard University in the US, people are increasingly leaning toward the phenomenon of “humblebragging (谦虚自夸)”. This is when people make a seemingly modest statement that actually draws attention to something they want to brag (吹嘘) about.Phrases such as “I have no life” and “I desperately need a holiday” are now used to imply social standing, while ordering food and shopping online is the perfect way to prove to neighbors that you are simply too busy and important to go to the supermarket.“Movies, magazines, and popular TV shows often highlight (强调) the abundance (富足) of money and leisure time among the wea lthy,” said Neeru Paharia, an assistant professor at Harvard University.“In recent years, featuring wealthy people relaxing by the pool or on a yacht (游艇), playing tennis or skiing and hunting are being replaced with advertisements featuring busy individuals who work long hours and have very limited leisure time,” he said. “Displaying (how busy you are at work) and a lack of leisure time operates as a visible signal of status in the eyes of others.”The researchers pointed out that the Wall Street Journal’s 2016 advert campaign featured celebrities (名人) complaining about their busy lives, with the slogan (标语). “People who don’t have time, make time to read the Wall Street Journal.”The report, which was published in the Journal of Consumer Research, also found that brands that marketed themselves as timesaving were becoming increasingly high-status, because of the people who used them. According to the authors, this trend of humblebragging is due to people’s shit of focus-they now value “the preciousness und scarcity (稀缺) of individuals" more than “the preciousness and scarcity of goods”.“Busy individuals possess desirable characteristics, leading them to be viewed as scarce and in demand,” the authors concluded.【1】The main idea of this article is about ?A．the trend of “humblebragging”.B．characteristics of people who lead a busy life.C．why people today are becoming increasingly busy.D．why some people like to brag about their social status.【2】People today prefer to to display their social statusA．share their passion for tennis or skiingB．show how fast-paced their work life isC．tell people about the wonderful holidays they takeD．show off their abundance of money and leisure time【3】The Wall Street Journal’s 2016 advert campaign implies that .A．busy people always have a better life than othersB．it’s important to read newspapers however busy you areC．busy individuals should learn to manage their time betterD．a lack of time is a typical characteristic of people of high social status【4】From the article we can conclude that America people today .A．all brag about themselives.B．value individuals, the preciousness and scarcityC．order food and shop online to show they are richD．work long hours and don’t have enough leisure time.二、其他Many people think of guys as being carefree when it comes to their appearance. But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror. They care just as much as girls do about their body image.Body image is a person’s opinions and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance. 【1】 You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its imperfections.【2】 Here are some ideas.Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body do well? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport. That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain hiking, dancing, or even running. Or perhaps you have non-sports skills, like drawing, painting singing, playing a musical instrument, writing, or acting.【3】.Exercise regularly. Exercise can help you look well and feel about yourself. Good physiques (体形) don’t just happed.【4】 A healthy habit can be as simple as exercising 20 minutes to I Hour three days a week. Working out can also lift your spirits.Respect your body. Practicing good habits-regular showering; taking care of your teeth, hair, and skin; wearing clean clothes, and so on—can help you build a positive body image.【5】 Your body is just one part of who you are. Your talent for comedy a quick wit (智慧), and all the other things make you unique. So try not to let small imperfections take over.A．Be yourself.B．Just explore talents that you feel good about.C．They take hard work, regular workouts, and a healthy diet.D．So, what can you do to develop a positive body image?E. Use this as an opportunity to discover what you’re good at.F. The good news is that self-image and body image can be changed.G Having a positive body image means feeling satisfied with the way you look.三、完形填空One day after school I was just finishing up some math homework.

After all, it was Mother’s Day and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy Mother’s Day. As they talked, the young woman could almost smell the purple lilacs (丁香) hanging outside her parents’ back door.Later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he jumped up from his chair. “I know where we can find you all the lilacs you want, he said. “Get the kids and come on.”So off they went, driving on the country roads of northern Rhode Island. Eventually, he stopped the car.“Come with me,”he said. “Over that hill is an old cave, and there are lilacs all around it. Go and pick a few.”The woman wandered among the lilacs. Carefully, she picked some out. She was in no hurry, enjoying each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. Finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. When they were almost home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, “Stop the car. Stop right here!”In a second, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. At the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors.The young woman found an elderly patient sitting in her wheelchair, alone. She handed her some lilacs. The old woman lifted her head and smiled. Then the young woman left. As the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved and held the lilacs tightly.The mother told her kids that she didn’t know the old woman but she needed those flowers more than she did.The next day the husband bought half a dozen young lilac bushes and planted them around their yard, and several times since then he has added more.Now, every May, their yard is smelling of lilacs.

Before that, their idea of entertainment involved driving an>und the countryside to see how the neighbors’ crops were growing.My parents eventually built a fish house and set it up on Wood Lake, 30 minutes away in Wisconsin. Our favorite fishing spot was across the lake. Every time we arrived, somebody had usually made a clear path across the ice. The fish houses were together at the best fishing spots, forming a neighborhood of sorts.Our house was large enough, so all four of us could fish at the same time. You’d think ice fishing would be cold, but we had a small stove inside, and we put snow around the bottom of the house to keep the wind from blowing underneath.Besides the thrill of watching your bobber (浮标) dip below the water, lunch was always the highlight of the day. Mom would fry pork or hamburgers on a grill. The smell of cooking meat was the envy of every other fish house in the neighborhood. Our days passed with a mix of quiet time and family chatter. We talked about the farm or school. And of course, we shared fishing advice. My brother and I also took breaks and explored the snow and ice. We were careful not to make much noise on the ice close to the houses, as we all were sure that it would scare the fish away.Part of the fun of ice fishing was learning to understand and trust the sounds of the frozen lake. People who have never tried ice fishing may not think it sounds very exciting, but it was for us. Fishing trips were an adventure. We didn’t always catch fish, but we always brought home great memories of a day with family and friends28. Why did the author’s parents turn to ice fishing?A.

They shared the hobby of ice fishing.31. What did the author think could be the best part of ice fishing?A. Surprise and adventure.B. Exploring the snow and ice.C. The excitement of catching fish.D. Quality time with family and friends.DNext time you raise an eyebrow at the views of your partners, friends, siblings (兄弟姐妹)or colleagues, remember they could be helping to make you smarter.New research shows that intelligence is not fixed but can be improved throughout adulthood by family members, bright mates and intellectually challenging (考验智慧的)careers. The study challenges the commonly held belief that intelligence is fixed by the age of about 18.Current scientific consensus (共识)suggests that intelligence is controlled by genes, with environmental factors such as schooling and nutrition playing a part up to this age. After this point, IQ scores become steady.But James Flynn, professor of political studies and psychology at the University of Otago in New Zealand, argues that people can upgrade their own intelligence throughout their lives. He believes intellectual stimulation (刺激)from others is important as “the brain seems to be rather like a muscle — the more you use it, the stronger it gets”. However, the opposite is also true - so people sharing a home or workplace with those who are intellectually disabled risk seeing their IQ levels fall as a result.Professor Flynn analyzed US intelligence tests from the last 65 years and created new IQ “age tables”. He found a bright 10-year-old with brothers and sisters of average intelligence will suffer a 5-10-point IQ disadvantage compared to a similar child with equally bright brothers and sisters. However, children with a low IQ could gain 6-8 points by having brighter brothers and sisters and special education treatment to help pull them up.Professor Flynn concluded that although genetics and early life experiences determine about 80% of intelligence, the remaining 20% is linked to lifestyle. This means people can raise their IQ, or allow it to fall, by 10 points or more. He suggests the best way to improve IQ levels is to socialize with brighter friends, and find an intellectually challenging job.32. What did people use to believe according to the passage?A. People’s IQ levels fall as they age.B. It is wise to share family members’ views.C. People cannot improve their intelligence during adulthood.D. Doing something challenging is good for one’s intelligence.33. The underlined word “upgrade” in Paragraph 4 probably means “”.A. controlB. trainC. keepD. improve34. Which can help improve one’s intelligence according to Professor Flynn?A. Making many friends.B. Staying with smarter people.C. Doing exercise every day.D. Learning from brothers or sisters.35. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. To inform.B. To advertise.C. To entertain.D. To persuade.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
