Studying was a breeze for Nigel. The reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it. It began when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the nationwide competition. Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition as well as another competitor, Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia. Unaware of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped her to put the finishing branches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot looked even better than Alicia’s and it was able to become a ball with its arms, something Alicia had failed to do.On the day of the competition, he says Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him among the competition. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.The flas hbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel’s try. The robot bird performed actions so unique and different that the specialist judgments were the same. Nigel was so personal with himself that he did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her, he would never win the competition.11. What reward did Nigel receive for doing well in his school work?A. He was offered a part-time jobB. He was honored with a scholarshipC. He helped his teacher construct a robotD. He helped in the computerlaboratories12. Nigel’s original intention of joining the contest was to ___A. be the top student of the schoolB. being great honor to his schoolC. constructs a robot with the Lego setsD. wins the thousand-dollar prize13. Why did Nigel help Alicia finish her robot?A. He tried to make friends with herB. He was fond of building robotsC. He intended to help herD. He didn’t want her to suspect him14. What is the author’s attitude towards Nigel’s ac tions?A. He is mildly criticalB. He is strongly criticalC. He is in favor of themD. His attitude is not clearBAndrew Ritchie, inventor of the Brompton folding bicycle, once said that the perfect portable bike would be “like a magic carpet…You could fold it up and put it into your pocket or handbag”. Then he paused: “But you’ll always be limited by the size of the wheels. And so far no one has invented a folding wheel.”It was a rare —indeed unique —occasion when I was able to put Ritchie right. A 19th-century inventor, William Henry James Grout, did in fact design a folding wheel. His bike, predictably named the Grout Portable, had a frame that split into two and a larger wheel that could be separated into four pieces. All th e bits fitted into Grout’s Wonderful Bag, a leather case.Grout’s aim: to solve the problems of carrying a bike on a train. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Grout intended to find a way of making a bike small enough for train travel: his bike was a huge b east. And importantly, the design of early bicycles gave him an advantage: in Grout’s day, tyres were solid, which made the business of splitting a wheel into four separate parts relatively simple. You couldn’t do the same with a wheel fitted with a one-piece inflated(充气的)tyre.So, in a 21st-century context, is the idea of the folding wheel dead? It is not. A British design engineer, Duncan Fitzsimons, has developed a wheel that can be squashed into something like a slender ellipse(椭圆). Throughout, the tyre remains inflated.Will the young Fitzsimons’s folding wheel make it into production? I haven’t the foggiest idea. But his inventiveness shows two things. First, people have been saying for more than a century that bike design has reached its limit, exce pt for gradual advances. It’s as silly a concept now as it was 100 years ago: there’s plenty still to go for. Second, it is in the field of folding bikes that we are seeing the most interesting inventions. You can buy a folding bike for less than £1,000 that can be knocked down so small that it can be carried on a plane — minus wheels, of course —as hand baggage.Folding wheels would make all manner of things possible. Have we yet got the magic carpet of Andrew Ritchie’s imagination? No. But it’s progress.15. We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the Brompton folding bike .A. was portableB. had a folding wheelC. could be put in a pocketD. looked like a magic carpet16. We can learn from the text that the wheels of the Grout Portable .A. were difficult to separateB. could be split into 6 piecesC. were fitted with solid tyresD. were hard to carry on a train17. We can learn from the text that Fitzsimon s’s invention .A. kept the tyre as a whole pieceB. was made into production soonC. left little room for improvementD. changed our views on bag design18. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Three folding bike inventorsB. The making of a folding bikeC. Progress in folding bike designD. Ways of separating a bike wheelCToo much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.A second study, looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year –olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人)may watch lots of TV.Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high schoolIn the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating firmness that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms19. According to the Califomia study, the low-scoring group might __________.A. have watched a lot of TVB. not be interested in mathC. be unable to go to collegeD. have had computers in their bedrooms20. What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interestC. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain21. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. More time should be spent on computers.B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.C. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms,D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done22. What would be the best title for this text?A. Computers or TelevisionB. Effects of Television on ChildrenC. Studies on TV and College EducationD. Television and Children's Learning HabitsDOne sixth of undergraduates (本科生) in Beijing this year have registered at a driving school. The students, mostly from majors such as business management or international trade, will finish their driving courses within 20 days or so.Training costs have dropped to, 2,600yuan for students, according to the Haidian Driving School in Beijing. The price is not really low, but students will accept it, seeing it as an investment (投资) in their future. Familiarity with the operation of computers and fluent English are the basic skills graduating students need to find a job. But a driver’s permit has become another factor.“In the job market, owning a driver’s permit sometimes strengthens a graduating student’s competitiveness for a good position,” says Zhou Yang, an undergraduate at the China University of Political Science and Law.Cars will become a necessary part of many people’s lives in the coming years, and it’s difficult to get a permit out of campus because of the pressures on working people’s time. “Having a full-time job after graduation offers limited time to learn to drive. We senior students have plenty of spare time, plenty of opportunities to learn.”Xu Jian, an official at the driving school, said undergraduates were very able and serious, and could grasp in an hour what it took ordinary people four hours to learn. In this driving school, middle-aged people, young women and college students are the main customers.To get a driver’s permit, a beginner is now required to have at least 86 hours’ practice before the final road test.23. The undergraduates are learning to drive because .A. they like to drive carsB. they need this skill to find a good job.C. most of them will be able to buy cars in the futureD. they want to become full-time drivers after graduation24. Which of the following is Xu Jian’s opinion of students learning to drive ?A. He decided it was a waste of money and time.B. He thought they must learn it at school.C. He thought they would spend three times more time.D. He agreed that young people had an advantage in learning to drive.25. Which of the following would be the best title of this passage ?A. Students Learn to DriveB. Welcome to Driving SchoolC. It’s Better to Learn to Drive at CollegeD. Students Pay Less to Learn to Drive NowEYANGON -- Myanmar has officially accepted an offer of the United States to send humanitarian aid(人道主义援助) to the country's cyclone(飓风;暴风) victims, state radio reported Friday in a night broadcast Myanmar Deputy Foreign Minister.

高二(上)期末英语试卷(A)一、阅读理解(本大题共11小题,共22.0分)AIf you want to walk in the footsteps of some of the world's greatest figures,then go to Oxford.Many of Oxford's 38colleges are open to the public year-round.Here are a few of the colleges worth visiting and some famous people who have studied there.Christ Church CollegeLong before it became known as a location for the Harry Potter films,Christ Church was the college where Albert Einstein,author Charles Dodgson who wrote Alice in Wonderland,and 13British prime ministers studied.In this large and popular college,you can see the paintings in the 16th-century Great Hall.Magdalen CollegeMany consider Magdalen to be one of the most beautiful Oxford's colleges.This is where author Oscar Wilde read his classics course.You can enjoy the medieval(中世纪的)church with its 15th-century tower.Opposite the college is the beautiful Botanic Garden founded in 1621.Merton CollegeFounded in 1264,Merton has the oldest medieval library in use.J.R.R.Tolkien is said to have spent many hours here writing The Lord of the Rings.One of the college's treasures is an astrolabe(星盘),thought to have belonged to Chaucer.The college has the most amazing collection of medieval colored glass in Oxford.Bodleian LibraryThe Bodleian Library,the main research library of the University of Oxford,is the largest university library in the UK.It is one of the oldest libraries in Europe,and in Britain is second in size only to the British Library.It holds more than 9million printed items on 189km of shelving and seats up to 2,500readers.The users of the library here include five kings,40Nobel Prize winners,25British prime minister and countless famous writers.1.If a Harry Potter fan travels to Oxford,he'll probably visit ______ .A.

British oldest botanic garden.3.According to the passage,J.R.R.Tolkien is ______ .A. the founder of Merton CollegeB. the author of The Lord of the RingsC. the designer of the oldest medieval libraryD. the owner of the astrolabe in Merton College4.What do we know about the Bodleian Library?______A. It lies in Magdalen CollegeB. It is the most famous library in the UKC. It has a collection of 2,500kinds of booksD. It is smaller than the British Library.BFatu Kekula is a hero.The 22-year-old Liberian nursing student,in her final year,managed to save the members of her immediate family from the Ebola virus,all without the help and convenience of a hospital.Kekula reduced the rate to 25percent.Four of her family members were infected with the virus.Her father,Moses,her mother,Victoria,her sister,Vivian and her 14-year-old cousin,Alfred Winnie.Sadly,Kekula's cousin succumbed to the virus.It's also impressive to note that while Kekula was treating her family members she managed to avoid Ebola entirely.On July 27,Kekula's father,Moses,went to a hospital in Kanata,after his blood pressure rose sharply.The only reason the hospital had a bed to offer him was because someone had just died.But the staff in the hospital didn't realize the patient died from an Ebola infection.Shortly,after he was admitted to the hospital,Moses developed a fever,started vomiting and was suffering from diarrhea.Once nurses started dying of Ebola,the hospital shut down and Moses had to leave.Kekula drove 90minutes to Monrovia,the capital of Liberia,to seek treatment.Three hospitals turned them away because there is no spare bed for patients at all.Kekula made the drive back to Kanata to another hospital.They told Moses he had typhoid fever and did very little to treat him.So Kekula took him home.Once he was there,he infected three other family members.Her mother,sister and their cousin who was living with them.Kekula only lost one patient,her cousin.Her method proved so effective that international aid workers,including UNICEF,began teaching it to others in West Africa who may not be able to get to hospitals for treatment.Her father,mother and sister were already recovering when space became available at the JFK Medical Center on August 17.Alfred passed away at the hospital the next day.Kekula's father,Moses said,"I'm very,very proud.She saved my life through the almighty God."5.What is the best title for the passage?______A. A courageous and selfless nurse.B. Give her a medal:Woman saves family members from Ebola.C. A family survived Ebola with the help of government.D. The dreadful disease Ebola.6.What does the underlined word"succumbed to"in Paragraph 2mean?______A. was affected withB. survivedC. died ofD. fight against7.Why Kekula took her father home?______A. Because a patient died from an Ebola infection in the hospital in Kanata.B. Because they were turned down by hospitals and little can be done to her father.C. Because Moses were already recovering when he was admitted to the JFK MedicalCenter.D. Because nurses started dying of Ebola and many hospitals were shut down.CEvery year,a handful of new words enter the world's collective vocabulary,but only one has the honor of being named Oxford Dictionaries'Word of the Year.And this year's top honor goes to"selfie".The frequency of the word selfie used in the English language has increased by 17,000per cent since this time last year.This figure is calculated by Oxford Dictionaries using a research program which collects around 150million English words currently in use from around the web every month.To qualify,a word need not have been invented within the past 12months but it does need to stand out or become notable at that time.Selfie is defined by Oxford Dictionaries as:"A photograph that one has taken of oneself,typically one taken with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website."Oxford Dictionaries said the earliest known usage is an Australian online forum post in 2002.A man posted a picture of injuries to his face when he tripped over some steps.He apologized for the fact that the picture was out of focus,saying that it was not because he was drunk but because it was a selfie.Judy Pearsall,editorial director for Oxford Dictionaries,said:"Using the Oxford Dictionaries language research program,we can see a phenomenal upward trend in the use of selfie in 2013,and this helped to win its selection as Word of the Year."She also added:"Social media sites helped to popularize the term,with selfie appearing on the photo-sharing website Flicker as early as 2004,but usage wasn't widespread until around 2012,when selfie was being used commonly in mainstream media sources."Selfies have taken the world by storm.Everyone from the first family to ordinary people has taken the time to pose for a selfie.Celebrities like Miley Cyrus,Jennifer Lawrence,and Jennifer Aniston have all showed their new haircuts with selfies this year.Selfie was added to the Oxford Dictionaries online in August,but not yet in the Oxford English.8.What does this passage mainly talk about?______A. The definition of the word"Selfie".B. The widespread usage of the word"Selfie"in 2012.C. "Selfie"has been chosen as the Word of the Year of 2013.D. "Selfie"began to be used in the Oxford English.9.What can we learn from the passage about the word Selfie?______A. Social media sites helped to popularize the word Selfie.B. The frequency of the word"selfie"has increased to 17,000% since 2004.C. Celebrities and the first family have all showed their new haircuts with selfies.D. The earliest known usage of"selfie"was a man who was drunk.10.The word"selfie"was chosen the Word of the Year by ______ .A. A social media website.B. The photo-sharing website Flicker.C. A research program by Oxford Dictionaries.D. People who take picture using a smart phone or webcam.11.In which column of a newspaper can we find this article?______A. ArtsB. entertainmentC. ScienceD. Culture.二、阅读七选五(本大题共4小题,共8.0分)Just weeks after a special memorial voyage to mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic,an Australian billionaire has announced plans to build an exact replica(复制品)of the Titanic,which is just as similar to the original one as possible.The Titanic replica will make its first voyage from Southampton,England to New York in 2016.The Titanic is a famous ship that sank in 1912.The attractive story of the ocean liner(邮轮)has made millions of people interested in it around the world.It was believed to be an unsinkable ship but it hit an iceberg and sank on its first voyage.More than 1,500people died in the sinking of the Titanic,which at the time was the world's largest and most luxurious ocean liner.When fully built,the Titanic II will be 270meters (886feet)long and capable of holding 1,680passengers.Unlike the original Titanic which was powered by coal-fired boiler and steam engines,the Titanic II will have modern diesel(柴油机)and electric engines.Also unlike the first Titanic,the Titanic II will have more than enough lifeboats to accommodate everyone on board if something should go wrong.When asked whether the new replica would sink,Mr.Palmer replied:"Of course it will sink if you put a hole in it.He also added"It will be designed as a modern ship with all the technology to ensure that doesn't happen."When Mr.Palmer was asked if he expected his Titanic to be successful,he simply said:"At my age,you don't really worry so much about whether you'll make money or lose money on something,but I believe that it is worth building it."A. To make a voyage from Southampton,England to New York.B. To mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.C. To realize Mr.Palmer's dream of constructing a luxurious ocean liner.D.

The 22-year-old Liberian nursing student, in her final year, managed to save the members of her immediate family from the Ebola virus, all without the help and convenience of a hospital.Kekula reduced the rate to 25 percent. Four of her family members were infected with the virus. Her father, Moses, her mother, Victoria, her sister, Vivian and her 14-year-old cousin, Alfred Winnie. Sadly, Kekula’s cousin succumbed to the virus.I t’s also impressive to note that while Kekula was treating her family members she managed to avoid Ebola entirely.On July 27, Ke kula’s father, Moses, went to a hospital in Kanata, after his blood pressure rose sharply. The only reason the hospital had a bed to offer him was because someone had just died. But the staff in the hospital didn’t realize the patient died from an Ebola infection. Shortly, after he was admitted to the hospital, Moses developed a fever, started vomiting and was suffering from diarrhea. Once nursesstarted dying of Ebola, the hospital shut down and Moses had to leave. Kekula drove 90 minutes to Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, to seek treatment. Three hospitals turned them away because there is no spare bed for patients at all.Kekula made the drive back to Kanata to another hospital. They told Moses he had typhoid fever and did very little to treat him. So Kekula took him home. Once he was there, he infected three other family members. Her mother, sister and their cousin who was living with them.Kekula only lost one patient, her cousin. Her method proved so effective that international aid workers, including UNICEF, began teaching it to others in West Africa who may not be able to get to hospitals for treatment.Her father, mother and sister were already recovering when space became available at the JFK Medical Center on August 17. Alfred passed away at the hospital the next day. K ekula’s father, Moses said, “I’m very, very proud. She saved my life through the almighty God.”25. What is the best title for the passage?A.

Because a patient died from an Ebola infection in the hospital in Kanata.B. Because they were turned down by hospitals and little can be done to her father.C. Because Moses were already recovering when he was admitted to the JFK Medical Center.D. Because nurses started dying of Ebola and many hospitals were shut down.CJust weeks after a special memorial voyage to mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, an Australian billionaire has announced plans to build an exact replica(复制品) of the Titanic, which is just as similar to the original one as possible. The Titanic replica will make its first voyage from Southampton, England to New York in 2016.The Titanic is a famous ship that sank in 1912. The attractive story of the ocean liner(邮轮) has made millions of people interested in it around the world. It was believed to be an unsinkable ship but it hit an iceberg and sank on its first voyage.More than 1,500 people died in the sinking of the Titanic, which at the time was the world’s largest and most luxurious ocean liner.When fully built, the Titanic II will be 270 meters (886 feet) long and capable of holding 1,680 passengers. Unlike the original Titanic which was powered by coal-fired boiler and steam engines, the Titanic II will have modern diesel(柴油机) and electric engines. Also unlike the first Titanic, the Titanic II will have more than enough lifeboats to accommodate everyone on board if something should go wrong.When asked whether the new rep lica would sink, Mr. Palmer replied: “Of course it will sink if you put a hole in it. He also added “It will be designed as a modern ship with all the technology to ensure that doesn’t happen.”When Mr. Palmer was asked if he expected his Titanic to be successful, he simply said: “At my age, you don’t really worry so much about whether you’ll make money or lose money on something, but I believe that it is worth building it.”28. Why is the Titanic replica being built?A. To make a voyage from Southampton, England to New York.B. To mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.C.

Titanic II will be powered by modern diesel and electric engines.B. The appearance of Titanic II will be more luxurious.C. The construction of Titanic II will be more complex.D. The number of the lifeboats on Titanic II will be smaller.31. What is Mr. Palmer’s attitude towards his Titanic II replica?A. It will sink with a hole in it.B.

DEvery year, a handful of new words enter the world’s collective vocabulary, but only one has the honor of being named Oxford Dictionaries’ Word of the Year. And this year’s top honor goes to “selfie”.The frequency of the word selfie used in the English language has increased by 17,000 per cent since this time last year. This figure is calculated by Oxford Dictionaries using a research program which collects around 150 million English words currently in use from around the web every month. To qualify, a word need not have been invented within the past 12 months but it does need to stand out or become notable at that time.Selfie is defined by Oxford Dictionaries as: “A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.” Oxford Dictionaries said the earliest known usage is an Australian online forum post in 2002. A man posted a picture of injuries to his face when he tripped over some steps. He apologized for the fact that the picture was out of focus, saying that it was not because he was drunk but because it was a selfie.Judy Pearsall, editorial director for Oxford Dictionaries, said: “Using the Oxford Dictionaries language research program, we can see a phenomenal upward trend in the use of selfie in 2013, and this helped to win its selection as Word of the Year.” She also added: “Social media sites helped to popularize the term, with selfie appearing on the photo-sharing website Flicker as early as 2004, but usage wasn’t widespread until around 2012, when selfie was being used commonly in mainstream media sources.”Selfies have taken the world by storm. Everyone from the first family to ordinary people has taken the time to pose for a selfie. Celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Lawrence, and Jennifer Aniston have all showed their new haircuts with selfies this year. Selfie was added to the Oxford Dictionaries online in August, but not yet in the Oxford English.32. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. The definition of the wo rd “Selfie”.B. The widespread usage of the word “Selfie” in 2012.C. “Selfie” has been chosen as the Word of the Year of 2013.D. “Selfie” began to be used in the Oxford English.33. What can we learn from the passage about the word Selfie?A. Social media sites helped to popularize the word Selfie.B. The frequency of the word “selfie” has increased to 17,000 % since 2004.C. Celebrities and the first family have all showed their new haircuts with selfies.D. The earliest known usage of “selfie” was a man who was drunk.34. The word “selfie” was chosen the Word of the Year by _____________.A. A social media website.B. The photo-sharing website Flicker.C. A research program by Oxford Dictionaries.D. People who take picture using a smart phone or webcam.35. In which column of a newspaper can we find this article?A. ArtsB. entertainmentC. ScienceD.
