Australia is the largest island in the world. It is a little smaller than China. It is in the south of the earth. Australia is big, but its population is not large. The population of Australia is nearly as large as that of Shanghai.The government has made enough laws to fight pollution. The cities in Australia have got little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish swimming in the rivers. Plants grow very well.Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and went to a wild flowers' exhibition. There we saw a large number of wild flowers we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers. In spring every year Perth has the wild flowers' exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent the day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves. Suddenly we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill. What we saw made us pick up all our things and run back to the car as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us down the path.Australia is famous for its sheep and kangaroos(袋鼠). After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, everywhere are sheep.4. Australia is ________.A.the largest country in the world.B.as large as Shanghai.C.the largest island in the north of the earth.D.not as large as China.5. The government had made ________.A.so many laws that it can fight pollution.B.few laws to fight pollution.C.enough laws that it can hardly fight pollution.D.enough laws because the pollution is very serious.6. Which of the following is NOT true?A.Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers.B.Perth is bigger than any other city in Western Australia.C.Perth lies in the west of Australia.D.No other city is larger than Perth in Australia.7. In Perth you may visit a wild flowers' show in ________.A.July B.January C.May D.OctoberCWhen I was a ten-year-old girl, my mother determined to lead us to the world of art. My brother and I were not very excited when we realized what our mother meant. What she meant was not that we could take drawing classes or painting classes but that we would have to spend our afternoon a week with her at the Fine Arts Museum. Before each visit to the museum, she made us read about artists and painting styles. It was almost as dreadful as being in school. Who wants to spend the summer thinking about artists when you could be with our friends at the swimming pool?First we had to read about ancient Egyptians and their strange way of painting faces and then go to look at them at the museum. My 12-year-old brother thought this was funny, but I was not interested. Later we had to learn about artists in the Middle Age who painted people wearing strange long clothing. We had to look at pictures of fat babies with wings and curly hair and with no clothes on flying around the edges of paintings. I certainly couldn’t see what was so great about art.On our last visit to the museum, things changed when I saw a painting by a woman called Mary. In it, a woman was reading to a child. The colors were soft and gentle, and you could tell bythe woman’s expression how happy she was just to be with the child. I couldn’t stop looking at the painting! I wanted to see every painting Mary had ever made! It was really worth looking at so many paintings to find a painter who could interest me so much.8. The purpose of the mother’s plan for her children was to ________.A. take them to visit the museumB. ask them to read about artistsC. show them different painting stylesD. introduce them to the world of art9. The underlined word “dreadful” is closest in meaning to ______.A. colourfulB. terribleC. reasonableD. relaxing10. On the last visit to the museum, the writer _______.A. met a woman called MaryB. hardly enjoyed herself thereC. showed great interest in the paintingsD. learnt how to draw good pictures11. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?A. The visit.B. The painting.C. The museum.D. The change.DWhen I first started university,I remembered hearing about bone marrow(骨髓)donation during Freshman's Week.Some students volunteers from a group called Marrow tried to convince me to attend an event so I could learn more about it.The word"bone"immediately made me think that donating would be a painful procedure,so I refused.Back then,there was no way I could have known three years later,I would be one of the many people that desperately needs a bone marrow donor to save their lives.I am currently waiting to be matched with a donor and if I am lucky enough to find a good match,it will be this lovely stranger that saves my life.I received my cancer diagnosis in June.It is only at that time that I realized how ignorant I had been about the bone marrow donation process.The process of donating stem cells is actually very simple.In 90% of cases,donors are asked to donate their blood stem cells,the other 10% will give their bone marrow.Lots of donorssay that both these things are virtually pain free,and nothing to be scared about.Being a bone marrow donor should be something to be proud of,as every donor has an opportunity to save someone's life!At the moment I know that the doctors are busy searching for a match,I simply live every day in the hope that there will be a donor right for me.If I have an opportunity for life,I won't waste it.When I was a first year at university,I made the mistake of walking away from becoming a stem cell donor.Please don't make the same mistake that I did.There are so many people out there,including myself,that need your help;and by undergoing a simple,pain﹣free procedure,you could have the chance to proudly say that you saved someone's life.12.Why did the author refuse to learn more about bone marrow donation before?A.Because she could get nothing from it.B.Because she was in poor health.C.Because she had known nothing about it.D.Because she thought that donating would be painful.13.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?A.The author was concerned about others.B.The author was confident about the bone marrow donation.C.The author needs the bone marrow donation now.D.The author donates her bone marrow to save others.14.The author needs the bone marrow because she got.A.headache B.cancer C.flu D.high blood pressure15.The author told us her story to.A.show us the experience of her college life.B.explain the cause of her cancer.C.recall her painful past.D.encourage people to be a bone marrow donor.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。

2017—2018学年高一年级第二学期期末考试英语试卷(满分150分,时间120分钟)第I卷第一部分听力(略)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C 和 D )中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AVinegar(醋)is great. It makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even clean your windows with it. And now, according to scientists,it may even help the planet’s population survive climate chang e. Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Reso urce Science (CSRS) in proved that. They found growing pla nts in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This co uld mean that in the future,worries about climate change affecting the world’s supply of f ood will be much lower.The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Ar abidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive in dry weathe r. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate(醋酸盐)--- the main component of vinegar.After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by a dding acetate to the soil of other plants before they stopped gi ving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 da ys, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived , while the untreated plants had dried up and died.It’s hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be u sed to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive. “In the experiment, we targeted the basic foods of the world—rice, wheat and maize... and proved successful” Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study, told Popular Science magazine. Kim has already been in touch with people around the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from farmers to companie s and amateur gardeners. “Now we are trying to cooperate wit h them to make a method to apply this system, and make the process as simple as possible,” he said. Hopefully this meansthe end of hunger caused by bad weather in the future.21. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Vinegar may help creatures survive bad weather.B. Vinegar is found in plants by Japanese scientists.C. Vinegar is very useful for cooking.D. Vinegar is mainly used by people to clean houses.22. Scientists in find from their studies that ________.A. the acetate can be used by farmers to replace the soil.B. the plants treated with acetate could survive dry conditions.C. soil condition could be changed by pouring vinegar continu ally.D. the Arabidopsis could survive in dry weather because of the shape.23. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. How to decrease the cost is the main issue.B. Keeping plants alive means a lot for scientists.C. The method is promising especially in agriculture.D. It’s too difficult for farmers to accept the method.24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Plants Need WaterB. Vinegar and FoodC. Japanese Scientists Find a Way to SurviveD. Vine gar Could End HungerBAs more and more schools rush to put digital devices in the h ands of every student, many parents are becoming increasing ly worried about the quality of their children’s education. The p romise of increased student academic achievement through t he use of technology hasn’t produced any significant results i n the past 20 years.Researchers at the of conducted a study in 2014 to determin e if the social skills of elementary students were blocked by sc reen time. Two groups of sixth grade students were compared . One group was sent to an outdoor camp for one week with n o screen time, while the control group live life as normal. After one week, the students at camp had made significant improv ements over their peers(同龄人). The good news is that when we limit access to screen ti me and give children the opportunity to interact face to face, t hey quickly become better at reading the emotional state of ot hers. The bad news is that we have a generation of children t hat struggle with this basic emotional intelligence skill.Too much screen time has been linked to childhood obesity, s leep disorders, behavior problems, and academic challenges.But is there a difference between schoolwork and entertainme nt media?When students are using technology for academic work they are more likely to be communicating with peers, working coop eratively, and developing other important skills. However, all t hese are impossible when students watch entertainment medi a. They just sit and watch!Parents have the right to focus on their children’s screen time at school, but they should begin with discussing the use of dig ital media at home. Some parents are continuously engaged i n their own devices, responding to every ring of their phones, receiving and sending messages. How can they expect their c hildren to do better?25.What was the schools’ original intention of using digital d evices?A. To make sure students get technological education.B. To help students develop socially.C. To make school life more entertaining and colorful.D. To improve students academically.26.What aspect of children worries the writer a lot?A. Lacking guidance on proper screen time.B. Lacking chances to communicate with others.C. Lacking interest in improving their study.D. Lacking skills in reading others’ emotional state. 27.What attitude does the writer have to the use of digital de vices in schoolwork?A. Positive.B. Worried.C. Negative.D. Uncertain.28.From the passage, we can learn that ________.A. parents shouldn’t oppose schools in their educational appr oachesB. some parents may set a bad example to their children in us ing digital mediaC. the screen watching time shouldn’t be longer than 2 hours f or studentsD. it’s wrong for schools to focus on technological education COne day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was t o walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for t he summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at rand om. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only a nimal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sha rer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone w ho had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgo t my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identic al to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on th e cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the b ook, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I re ad very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued t he final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog an d I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly real ized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading th at book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Bo oks could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read the m.I never told my mother about my “miraculous” experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years la ter, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD degree in literature, and authored his ow n books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words h as held.29.The book caught the author’s eye because_____.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children’s stories very much30.Why could the author manage to read the book through?A. He was forced by his mother to read it.B. He identified with the story in the book.C. The book told the story of his pet dog.D. The happy ending of the story attracted him.31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author’s mother read the same book.C. The author’s mother rewarded him with a PhD degree.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.DMany Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technol ogy that will revolutionize(彻底变革) travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experi ments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the po tential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans u nderserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long a s lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for inventi on.A retirement community in , , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech compa ny called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limi ted to a two-mile road,but residents are already having the benefits of these autono mous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activiti es they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because th ey could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these re sidents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is eas y to understand why is moving to simplify laws for the industr y.In , forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden ben efits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physica l disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has stro ngly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, indep endent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future ca nnot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forc ed to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places l ike California and , and pass rules and laws to unlock these hi dden benefits of driverless cars.32.What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A. uncertainB. doubtfulC. indifferentD. optimistic33.What is the modified Ford Fusion?A. The collection of social activities.B. The name of a retirement community.C. A kind of autonomous vehicle.D. A two-mile road for self-driving cars.34.Examples are given in the third and forth paragraphs to p rove______.A. what are preventing the development of the technologyB. why driverless cars are restricted in many states inC. how driverless technology benefits the aged and disabledD. when driverless cars can enter people’s life eventually 35.What does the author attempt to inform us in the last par agraph?A. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely reco gnized.B. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.C. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.D. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technol ogy.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。

AWorld’s top hotels for observing stars3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat, SwitzerlandSitting 3,100 meters above sea level, 3,100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat overlooks the snow-dusted, rocky peaks of the Swiss Alps.

Why don't you fly out and meet me?”My father had just retired after 27 years as a manager for IBM. His job filled his day, his thought, his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall in Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.My father sees me drifting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps. He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.“What is our first stop?” asks my father.“What time is it?”“Still don't have a watch?”Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(花岗岩), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of a little boy.“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.We stare up and I ask myself, “Would I ever devote my life to anything?”No directions, no goals. I always used to hear those words in my father's voice. Now I hear them in my own.The next day we're at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.“Did you ever travel with your dad?” I ask.“Only once,” he says. “I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other—but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”The_last_sentence—it's_probably_the_same_thing_I'd_say_about_my_father._And_what_I'd_ want_my_child_to_say_about_me.In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I've never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world. I can keep traveling, I realize—and maybe a regular job won't be as dull as I feared.Weeks after our trip, I call my father.“The photos from the trip are wonderful,” he says. “We have got to take another trip like that sometime.”I tell him I've decided to settle down, and I'm wearing a watch.24. We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that the father ________.A. followed the fashionB. was unhappy with the author's lifestyleC. liked the author's collection of stampsD. got bored with his job25. What does the author realize at Mount Rushmore?A. His father is interested in sculpture.B. His father is as innocent as a little boy.C. He should pursue a specific aim in life.D. He should learn sculpture in the future.26. What could be inferred about the author and his father from the end of the story?A. They decide to learn photography together.B. The call solves their disagreements.C. They begin to change their attitudes to life.D. The Swiss watch has drawn them closer.27. From the underlined paragraph, we can see that the author________.A. learns how to communicate with his fatherB. hopes to give whatever he can to his fatherC. wants his children to learn from their grandfatherD. comes to understand what parental love meansCIf you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver wouldnot show the least sign of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration(登记)card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes (漏洞)in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned e veryone into a real “gentleman”.28.The underlined words in this passage means to “______”.A.be ready to help othersB. gain something at other’s expenseC. make good use of one’s friendsD.be a little ahead of others29.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.While taking a taxi in Finland, you can get off without first paying your fare.B.In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you’re living in the hotel.C.The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to registration of their working hours.D.The workers are always honest with their working hours.30. We can learn from the passage that ______.A.there are many loopholes in everyday life in FinlandB.the Finnish society is of very high moral (道德)levelC.in Finland, most taxi drivers will not charge you anythingD.everyone in Finland is like a gentleman, for they have faith in themselves31. Which of the following is the best title of the passage ?A.Honest accounts of the Finns B. Life in FinlandC.A Society with “Foolish” People D. What a LifeDImagine a town with crosswalks but no pedestrians, cars and trucks but no drivers. Welcome to Mcity, a fake “city” built by researchers who are testing outthe driverless cars of the future.The controlled test environment, which opened today (July 20, 2015) at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, covers 32 acres (the size of about 24 football fields) and contains all the trappings of a real suburb or small city. There is an entire network of roads lined with sidewalks, streetlights, stop signs and traffic signals. There’s even a “downtown” area complete with fake buildings and outdoor dining areas.The idea behind Mcity is simple: test out new driverless car innovations in a human-free environment before these technologies are unleashed in the real world."Mcity is a safe, controlled, and realistic environment where we are going to figure out how the incredible potential of connected and automated vehicles can be realized quickly, efficiently and safely," Peter Sweatman, director of the Mobility Transformation Center at U-M, said in a statement.The roads of Mcity are built to stand up to “rigorous, repeatable” testing, according to MTC officials. While Mcity drivers don't have to compete with real pedestrians, there will be one mechanical foot-traveler (a robot-like machine named Sebastian) that steps out into traffic to see whether the automated cars can hit the brakes in time. The fake city also features a traffic circle, a bridge, a tunnel, some unpaved roads, and even a four-lane highway with entrance and exit ramps, according to a report by Bloomberg Business.In addition to evaluating fully automated, or driverless cars, the researchers also hope to test out so-called connected vehicles within Mcity’s limits. Connected cars can either communicate with one another (vehicle-to-vehicle control, or V2V) or with pieces of equipment, such as traffic lights, that are located near roadways (vehicle-to-infrastructure control, or V2I).Even the smallest details of Mcity have been planned out in advance to copy the conditions that connected and automated vehicles could face in the real world. For example, there are street signs covered up with graffiti, and faded yellow and white lane markings line the streets.Mcity is just one part of a much larger project that MTC and its partner organizations are establishing in an effort to get a whole fleet of connected and driverless cars on the road in Ann Arbor by 2021. In addition to the fake city, MTC is also continuing to launch connected and semi-autonomous(半自动) cars on real roadways. Eventually, the University of Michigan and the Michigan Department of Transportation said they hope to put 20,000 connected cars on the roads of southern Michigan.32.
