ALast year my summer holiday was spoiled by my bringing along my iPad. Instead of looking at nature, I checked my e-mail. Instead of paddling a small boat, I followed my Twitter feed(推特简讯). I was behaving as if I were still in the office. My body was on vac ation, but my head wasn’t.So this year I made up my mind to try something different: withdrawal from the Internet. I knew it wouldn’t be easy, since I’m bad at self-control. But I was determined. I started by giving the iPad to my wife.The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past, making my attempts at cheating an experience in frustration . I was trapped, forced to go through with my plan. Largely breaking away from e-mail and Twitter, I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio—and how much radio can one listen to, really? I had to do what I had planned to do all along: read books.This experience has had a happy ending. With determination and the strong support of my wife, I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet, realizing finally that it was I, not the iPad, that was the problem. I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi. ―I don’t need it,‖ I said.However, as we return to post-vacation life, a harder test begins: Can I continue when I’m back at work? I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely. But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes, which leads to checking my Twitter feed .I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive. Here I hope this one worked.1. What do we know about the author’s last summer vacation?A. He was determined to enjoy the beautiful view.B. His iPad ruined his plan of finishing a great novel.C. He hated himself for acting as if he were working on vacation.D. He felt satisfied that he had stuck to his usual timetable.2. When back at work, the author will probably choose to ________.A. keep control of when and how to use the InternetB. continue to read more and more booksC. stay away from the Internet for everD. stop checking what is being said right now completely3. What is the author’s opinion of a great vacation in the passage?A. A vacation is having nothing to do but read all day.B. A vacation proves that a life of pleasure is overvalued.C. A vacation means a change of pace to make one more creative.D. A vacation is a period of time to do whatever one wishes to.BTrip to Alaska National ParksThis four-day train trip, which traverses both Denali and Kenai Fjords National Parks, allows for true appreciation of Alaska’s natural beauty. The route takes in peaks and forests, including a stop at the foot of 20,320-foot-high Mount McKinley, North America’s tallest mountain. Though the train has comfortable seating and a luxurious dining car, nights are spent at off-train lodging like the Grande Denali Lodge.India Tour, Maharajas’ ExpressMaharajas’ Express is the most luxurious train in the world. Started in 2010, and limited to 88 passengers on each trip, the train features luxurious private suites with marble baths and panoramic (全景)windows. On the five-day, four-night trip, which starts and ends in Delhi, passengers make stops to visit the splendid Taj Mahal at Agra, take a tiger safari at Ranthambore National Park, and shop and watch an elephant-polo match in Jaipur.Tales of Laos Tour, Eastern & Oriental ExpressThe sister train to Europe’s Venice Simplon Orient-Express, the Eastern & Oriental Express offers the same level of service and comfort. What’s completely different about the Eastern, of course, is the scenery that passengers can see through the train’s large windows.Among the attractive sights on the four-day, three-night Tales of Laos Tour are green rice paddies(水稻梯田)and locals riding elephants.Cuzco to Machu Picchu Route, Hiram BinghamThe Hiram Bingham, a train operating in Peru, leads guests on a magical day trip from Cuzco to the ruins of Machu Picchu. During the three-hour trip —which covers about 50 miles —the train winds through the thick jungle and across two high mountains. Once it arrives at the city of Machu Picchu, passengers get a five-hour tour through the fascinating site before heading back to Cuzco.4. The underlined word ―traverses‖ in Paragraph 1 probably means _______.A. leaves forB. consists ofC. moves acrossD. arrives at5. According to this passage, the longest journey may be _______.A.

The Eastern & Oriental Express is different from Europe’s Venice Simplon Orient-Express in that _______.A. it offers satisfying serviceB. travelers feel every relaxedC. the dining car has a good environmentD. it provides a better view of the scenery7. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. On the Trip to Alaska National Parks, visitors spend the night in the luxurious dining car.B.

On the Tales of Laos Tour, visitors can enjoy wonderful rice paddies and ride elephants.D. The Cuzco to Machu Picchu Route starts in Cuzco and ends in Machu Picchu.CDid you know that many people today are getting extra work by taking translating jobs online? It’s true! And you can do it too. Many companies in the USA need translators now to translate simple documents online from Chinese to English, such as emails, website content, movie subtitles and more.Companies like Real Translator Jobs are actively seeking translators from China to fill demand. There are more translation jobs than people to complete them. This leaves a big opportunity for anyone to start doing this and earn extra money.Do you have to speak perfect English? No! Even basic knowledge of English is OK. This is really a job for anyone from China who wants to do it.We spoke to one student from Beijing, Harris, who has been doing this for 2 years now and is earning between $150 and $225 every day. He completes about 3 to 4 jobs per day which takes him about 3 hours. It’s an incredible amount ofmoney to earn !It is great that we now live in the ―Information Age‖ and opportunities like this are available to people in China to earn extra money working from home over the Internet. This type of work is surely to do great things for young people in China.If you would also like to do this, it’s easy to get started. Just follow these steps:1. Sign up at Real Translator Jobs (where Chinese translators are needed now), or a similar service.2. Review the job posting and complete the ones you like.3.

Getting paid once a month in cash.DWe spend a quarter of our lives asleep. Sleep is necessary for the body to rest, yet our brains continue to process information. Studies have shown that students are more successful when they sleep after studying–instead of pulling all-nighters–because the brain reviews information learned. Similarly, dreaming is an opportunity to work out emotional problems and form thoughts and memories. About 25 percent of the time spent sleeping is spent in rapid eye movement, or REM, sleep. This type of sleep is known for when dreams occur, but it also helps energize the brain and body.Researchers have found two important factors regarding humans and sleep: basic sleep need and sleep debt. Basicsleep need is the amount of sleep we need to have regularly to perform at our best. Sleep debt is the loss of sleep. A few studies say that most adults function best with a basic sleep need of seven to eight hours a night. The problem is that sleep debt also factors in, just because that you meet your basic sleep needs a few nights of the week doesn’t mean it cancels out the effects of one night’s sleep debt.Of course, everyone is different and some people require more or less sleep than the standard basic sleep need. But the real problem lies in what lack of sleep does over the long period to people who either does not meet his or her body’s needs or for one reason or another doesn’t get enough regular sleep. It is more possible for these people to have motor vehicle accidents, weight gain and risk for heart disease or diabetes (糖尿病) and may be at increased risk for psychological conditions such as depression or drug abuse. Sleeping too long also can be associated with depression and poor health.12. Most people spent around ______ of the sleeping time in REM sleep?A. One third of the timeB. More than half of the timeC. One fourth of the timeD. More than 5 hours every day13. Which of the following is NOT the result for lack of sleep according to the passage?A. Car accidents.B. Putting on weight.C. Heart problems.D. Review learning things.14. The best title for the passage is ______.A. Why We Need SleepB. REMSleep and Basic SleepC. Sleep Causes ProblemsD. How Much Sleep We Need15. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. Students will forget what they have learned if they go to sleep immediately after study.B. People may have an idea on how to solve an emotional problem if they have a dream.C. It’s all right to have a night of sleep debt if you fulfill several days of basic sleep need.D. Sleeping as long as you can is considered to be good for your health and performance.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。

Actually, some people are late not deliberately but because they misunderstand others’opinions or pay too much attention to details.As we all now, frequent lateness will have negative effects on one’s daily life. On the one hand, unpunctual people tend to leave a bad impression on those who have made the appointment with them. Others usually regard being punctual as a sign of eeping the promise. On the other hand, lateness sometimes brings about much trouble in solving urgent problems.As for those who are unintentionally late, lie Johnson and Joanna, I have two suggestions as follows. First, whenever you mae appointments with others, mae sure you have understood all the details and try to get there a few minutes before the appointed time. Second, mae good preparations for the appointments but never become too particular about every detail.附-1—评分标准1.本题总分为25分,按5个档次给分。

(每小题2分,共30分)AMost people usually travelled by ship and train which are driven by steam engine. It played an important part in many kinds of vehicles several scores of years ago. Who invented steam engine and what units could be used to measure the power of engine?The word “horse-power” was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt from a worker’s family made the world fir st widely used steam engine. At first, he couldn’t tell people how powerful it was, because there were no units at that time. Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He named that unit one horse-power. In this way he could measure the work of his steam engine.He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute. Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten horse-power engine.1. The main idea of the passage is _____.A. James Watt invented the steam engineB. James Watt first used horse-power as a unit of measureC. how much power does a horse haveD. why Watt’s engine is called a ten horse-power engine2. The story says that Watt made the first ____.A. engineB. horse-power engineC. useful engineD. widely used steam engine3.

He didn't go to school and couldn't read,although he learned all about the forests,streamsand hunting. He could move silently like an Indian leaving no marks. He loved to live alone in the woods where nothing frightened him.When he grew up, he married and tried to settle down on a farm. Ayear later, however, he wasn't satisfied and decided to go into the unknown western lands, crossing the Appalachian Mountains. When he returned after two years, he became famous for his long journey. He brought valuable animal skins and told stories about the Indians.After this, he chose to keep travelling to unknown places. Once helost to the Indians in battle and was taken away. The Indians liked him and became his friends. Daniel Boone died at the age of 86. He is remembered as an explorer(探险者)and a pioneer who lived an exciting life in the early years of American nation.6.Daniel Boone's early life was mainly spent in ______ .A.learning about natureB.hunting with his friendsC.learning useful skills from the IndiansD.studying at home because he couldn't go to school7.

Women are less strong than men. That at least is what people say. Women are called the weaker sex, or, if men want to please them, the fair sex. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men . A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68.Are women's bodies really weaker?The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women's time are always slower than men's, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teenage girls. One of them swam 400 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16.The first‘Tartan’in film was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 49.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone (荷尔蒙)injections(注射). At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated(复杂的) when there are two separate sexes!11.Women are called the weaker sex because ______ .A.women do as much as menB.people think women are weaker than menC.sport is easier for men than for womenD.in sport the two sexes are always together12.Which of the following is true?A.Boys and girls study separately everywhere.B.Women do not run or swim in races with men.C.

In this passage the author implies that ______A.women are weaker than wen , but fasterB.women are slower than men, but strongerC.men are not always stronger and faster than womenD.men are faster and stronger than women第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Have you ever had a wonderful idea and thought it would make a great invention, but didn’t know what to do next? 16 They will help you make your dreams come true and become a famous inventor.The first thing that you should do is do some research on the Internet to see if anyone else has invented it.

celebrations,but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans.Teams of four,dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes,roll a complete cheese along a 50 metre course.On the way,they must not kick or throw their cheese,or go into their competitors'lane(赛道).Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos(disappointingly,but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones).All the competitors are served with beer or port wine,the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival﹣The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque,New Mexico.They come from as far away as Australia,the Caribbean and China,but theyall share a common addiction﹣food that is not just spicy(辛辣),but hot enough to make your mouth burn,your head spin and your eyes water.Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March.You might like to try a chocolatecovered habanero pepper﹣officially the hottest pepper in the world﹣or any one of the thousands of products that are on show.But one thing's for sure﹣if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue,this festival isn't for you!La Tomatina﹣The World's Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August,the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina﹣the world's largest food fight.A weeklong celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events.The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes﹣official fightstarters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour,in which time around 50,000kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves,runs,or fights back.Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again﹣and for a muchneeded wash!36.In the Stilton cheese rolling competition,competitors on each team must.A.wear various formal clothesB.roll a wooden cheese in their own laneC.kick or throw their cheeseD.use a real cheese weighing about four kilos37.Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held?A.In New Mexico.B.In the Caribbean.C.In Australia.D.In China.38.The celebration of La Tomatina lasts.A.three daysB.seven

Tomatina.四、任务型阅读18.(20分)Did you know that falling down is the leading cause of injury death for Americans aged 65 and older?Each year 35 to 40 percent of older adult Americans fall at least once.Falling down is not just the result of getting older.Falling can be caused by a variety of circumstances,and many falls can be prevented.Here are 4 simple steps you can take to significantly reduce your risk of injury from falling down.Improve Your Body Balance with Exercise to Prevent Falling●If y ou don't have a regular exercise program,start one.Lack of exercise leads to weakness,and that increases your chances of falling.●Exercise can improve your body balance and flexibility at any age.Try exercises like Yoga and Tai Chi.●If you are over 50 an d haven't exercised regularly,check with your health care provider about the best type of exercise program for you.Increase Your Home's Accessibility and Safety to Reduce Falling RisksAbout half of all falls happen at home.To increase accessibility and make your home safer:●Remove items you might trip over from stairs and places where you walk.●Remove small throw rugs(易滑地垫)or use doublesided tape to keep the rugs from slipping.●Have grab bars installed next to your toilet,and install grab bars in your tub or shower.●Improve the lighting in your home.●Make sure all stairways have handrails and sufficient lighting.●Wear shoes that give good support and have thin nonslip soles.You might also consider avoiding lightweight slippers(especially backless styles),which can reduce your feeling of control.Prevent Falling:Watch Out for Medication Side EffectsAge can affect the way some medications work in your body,so if you have been taking any overthecounter medications for a while,it's important to tell your health care provider.He or she will be able to tell you if they are still safe for you to take.●Look out for drugs that have side effects including drowsiness(困倦).These side effects can increase your risk of falling.This is especially important with overthecounter cold and flu medications,which can often increase drowsiness.●And don't forget herbal remedies(草药).Some remedies increase sleepiness and many react with other types of medication,which could increase your risk of falling down.Be sure to check with your health care provider before trying new medication.Want to Prevent Falling?Have Your Vision Checked RegularlyVision problems can increase your chances of falling.●You may be wearing the wrong glasses that cause vision problems or limit your vision.●To reduce your risk of falling,have your vision checked by an eye doctor every year for early detection and correction of vision problems.If you can't see something,it's harder to avoid it,and this increases your risk of falling.Title:How to Reduce Your Risk of Injury From Falling.五、书面表达19.(25分)作为中学生,你肯定经历过多次考试,体验过成功,也遭遇过失败.请你根据下面的提示内容,简要概述中学生中普遍存在的对考试失败的两种态度,并结合自身实际,说明你的观点.要求:1.作文词数150个左右.2.可根据内容要点适当增加细节,以使行文连贯.3.开头已经给出,不计入总词数.As middle school students,we have all taken examinations of different types and.2016-2017学年江苏省南通市如皋市搬经中学高二(下)期末模拟英语试卷(二)参考答案与试题解析一、单项填空1.(1分)I don't think the competition is ________ failure,because it has offered us ________ valuable experience for the next competition.()A.a;a B./;/ C.a;/ D./;a【解答】答案:C.本题第一空属于抽象名词具体化的考查,在本句中,failure引申为"一场失败的比赛",所以用不定冠词a;第二个空experience为"经验",属于不可数名词,前面不加冠词,而当"经历"讲时,则是可数的;故选C.2.(1分)It was April 29,2001 Prince William and Kate Middleton walked into the palace hall of the wedding ceremony.()A.that B.when C.since D.berore【解答】答案:B.It指时间,而不是形式主语;April 29,2011为主句的表语;在从句中被关系副词when代替,充当状语.如果在April29,2011之前有介词on,则构成强调句型(选A).该题易误选A,误认为该句是强调句型,如果去掉it was…that…,该句不成立,所以不是强调句型.如果在April前面加上on,就可以选择that.3.(1分)________ I couldn't fully understand what he wanted to show in his paintings,I thought his works quite impressive.()A.As B.Since C.If D.While【解答】答案:D 此处的while是虽然的意思,根据前后句子的意思可以知道,因此是选择一个表示转折的连词.故选D4.(1分)She couldn't remember where it was ________ she first met me.()A.that B.when C.which D.what【解答】答案:A 考查强调句.英语强调句型:It is/was+被强调部分(通常是主语、宾语或状语)+that/who(当强调主语且主语指人)+其他部分.其它三项不引导强调句.5.(1分)It is important to ________ to teenagers the simple fact that being addicted to the Internet will do harm to both mental and physical health.()A.get across B.get through C.get over D.get down【解答】答案是A.本题考查动词短语辨析.A项表示"使理解(get across to sb.)";B项表示"接通某人电话(get through to sb.)";C项表示"克服;恢复;痊愈(get over)";D项表示"开始认真做…(get down to)";根据句意,让青少年"理解",所以答案选择A项,其它选项不符合逻辑.6.(1分)﹣﹣I spent two weeks in London last summer.﹣﹣Then you must have visited the British Museum during your stay,____ you?()A.mustn't B.haven't C.didn't D.hadn't【解答】答案C.从形式上看,本句中就有情态动词must,又含助动词have,但是在意思上,must have 整体表示对过去发生行为的推断,反意疑问句需要证实"是否曾经有过这样的情况",因此简略疑问句应该用didn't来追问.故选C.7.(1分)Canada is a country many different nationalities as well as one with foreign immigrants the majority of its population.()A.making up of;occupied withB.consisting of;making upC.made up of;consisting ofD.consisted of;taking up【解答】答案:B题干中many different nationalities 和the majority of its population都是充当动词的宾语;be made up of/consist of都表示由什么组成,一个是被动,一个是主动;make up构成,占…(比例).故选B.8.(1分)If you don't go there,________.()A.so will I B.nor do IC.neither shall I D.so do I【解答】答案:C 考查倒装句.由于从句If you don't go there是否定句,主句也应用否定句,排除A、D项;在条件状语从句中,主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时,排除B项,只有C项正确.故选:C.9.(1分)﹣Do you think John is coming to attend the lecture?﹣Sure.I have ________him to.()A.recommended B.persuaded C.suggested D.requested【解答】答案是B.本题考查动词词义辨析.A项表示"建议;推荐";B项表示"(成功地)说服某人";C项表示"建议",不用suggest sb.to do sth.;D项表示"请求";由上文sure可知,John会参加听报告,故推断我"说服了他",所以答案选择B项,其它选项不符合逻辑.10.(1分)When first ________ to the market,the product ________ a great success and brought in a large profit to the company.()A.introducing;appreciatedB.introduced;enjoyedC.being introduced;expectedD.introduce;caught【解答】答案:B.分析句子结构可知,introduce与其逻辑主语the product之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用动词的过去分词表示被动;第二个空为谓语动词的词义辨析,aprreciate意为"感激";enjoy意为"喜欢,享受(成功)";expect意为"期待";catch意为"捉住,引起";故选B.11.(1分)﹣﹣﹣What time is it?﹣﹣﹣I have no idea.But just a minute,I ______ it for you.()A.check B.checked C.will check D.would check【解答】答案C.根据上下文语境可知,说话人不知道具体时间(几点),但是"将去看一下(时间)",我为你看时间属于将要发生的事情,排除B和D项,应该用一般将来时"will check",其中will表示临时所做的决定,因此C项符合语境,故选C.12.(1分)Come and see me whenever .()A.you are convenientB.you will be convenientC.it is convenient for youD.it will be convenient to you【解答】C考查固定搭配.句意:无论何时,只要你方便,就可以过来看我.whenever引导让步状语从句,相当于no matter when.时间状语从句不能用将来时,排除B、D;it is convenient for sb某人方便的时候.故选C.13.(1分)Several hours later,with the help of the police,the students managed to escape from the dangerous place,_______.()A.hungry and frightened B.hungrily and frighteningC.hungry and frightening D.hungrily and frightened【解答】答案:A 考查状语用法.本题是形容词作状语,表示伴随.A、C项虽然都是形容词,但frightened意为"受惊的",修饰人,frightening意为"吓人的",修饰物.故选A.B、D项是一个形容词,一个副词,是不对等用and连接,本身是错误的.14.(1分)﹣______ the woman with the baby come over?We have a seat here.﹣Thank you,sir.Actually I do have my seat here.But my baby likes to look out of the window.()A.Would B.Shall C.Must D.May【解答】答案:A 本题中the woman with the baby 相当于you.would表示请求、建议;shall 用于第二、三人称,表示说话人给对方的命令、警告、允诺或威胁;must表示必须、必要;may表示请求和允许.此处表建议,所以选A.15.(1分)When it comes to _______ in public,no one can match him.()A.speak B.speaking C.being spoken D.be spoken【解答】答案:B.when it comes to doing sth 意为"当做某事的时候",其中的to 为介词.故后面用动名词,选B.二、完形填空16.(30分)Joe Simpson and Simon Yates were the first people to climb the West Face of the Siula Grande in the Andes mountains.They reached the top (41)successfully,but on their way back conditions were very(42)difficult.Joe fell and broke his leg.They both knew that if Simon (43)continued alone,he would probably get back(44)safely.But Simon

2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans.Teams of four,dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes,roll a complete cheese along a 50 metre course.On the way,they must not kick or throw their cheese,or go into their competitors'lane(赛道).Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing

fall at least once.Falling down is not just the result of getting older.Falling can be caused by a variety of circumstances,and many falls can be prevented.Here are 4 simple steps you can take to significantly reduce your risk of injury from falling down.Improve Your Body Balance with Exercise to Prevent Falling●If you don't have a regular exercise program,start one.Lack of exercise leads to weakness,and that increases your chances of falling.●Exercise can improve your body balance and flexibility at any age.Try exercises like Yoga and Tai Chi.●If you are over 50 and haven't exercised regularly,check with your health care provider about the best type of exercise program for you.Increase Your Home's Accessibility and Safety to Reduce Falling RisksAbout half of all falls happen at home.To increase accessibility and make your home safer:●Remove items you might trip over from stairs and places where you walk.●Remove small throw rugs(易滑地垫)or use doublesided tape to keep the rugs from slipping.●Have grab bars installed next to your toilet,and install grab bars in your tub or shower.●Improve the lighting in your home.●Make sure all stairways have handrails and sufficient lighting.●Wear shoes that give good support and have thin nonslip soles.You might also consider avoiding lightweight slippers(especially backless styles),which can reduce your feeling of control.Prevent Falling:Watch Out for Medication Side EffectsAge can affect the way some medications work in your body,so if you have been taking any overthecounter medications for a while,it's important to tell your health care provider.He or she will be able to tell you if they are still safe for you to take.●Look out for drugs that have side effects including drowsiness(困倦).These side effects can increase your risk of falling.This is especially important with overthecounter cold and flu medications,which can often increase drowsiness.●And don't forget herbal remedies(草药).Some remedies increase sleepiness and many react with other types of medication,which could increase your risk of falling down.Be sure to check with your health care provider before trying new medication.Want to Prevent Falling?Have Your Vision Checked RegularlyVision problems can increase your chances of falling.●You may be wearing the wrong glasses that cause visio n problems or limit yourvision.●To reduce your risk of falling,have your vision checked by an eye doctor every year for early detection and correction of vision problems.If you can't see something,it's harder to avoid it,and this increases your risk of falling.Title:How to Reduce Your Risk of Injury From Falling.【解答】(40)Measures/Steps/Ways(41)balance(42)regularly(43)fall/slip (44)Install(45)careful(46)safety(47)whether(48)wear(49)potential解答:40.Steps/Measures/Ways细节题.根据第四段"Here are 4 simple steps…"可知,这里指"方法、步骤".41.balance细节题.根据第一步骤"Improve Your Body Balance with Exercise to Prevent Falling"可知,这里指"通过锻炼使身体平衡".42.regularly 细节题.根据该步骤下"If you don't have a regular exercise program,start one."以及"If you are over 50 and haven't exercised regularly…"可知,这里指"定期地参加像瑜伽或太极这样的锻炼".43.fall/slip 推理题.这些建议的目的就是防止摔倒,所以不难推断出这里指"挪走可能让你摔倒的物品".44.Install 概括题.根据第二步骤下第三条建议"Have grab bars installed next to your toilet,and install grab bars in your tub or shower."可知,这里指"必要时,安装支撑物".45.careful 细节题.根据第三步骤"Prevent Falling:Watch Out for Medication Side Effects"可知,与watch out for(当心,提防)词意相近的短语是be careful of(小心,注意).46.safety词性转换题,根据该步骤下第一段最后一句"He or she will be able to tell you if they are still safe for you to take."可知,这里指"务必要和医疗服务人员核对,以确保你服用的非处方药物的安全".47.whether 细节题,"whether…or not"是习惯搭配,意思是"是否…或不…".48.wear 细节题.根据第四步骤第一条建议"You may be wearing the wrong glasses that cause vision problems or limit your vision."可知,这里指"不要戴有损视力的眼镜".49.potential推理题.该句意为"定期检查视力,及时发现和纠正你潜在的视力问题".该题有一定难度,需根据句意猜测符合的单词.五、书面表达19.(25分)作为中学生,你肯定经历过多次考试,体验过成功,也遭遇过失败.请你根据下面的提示内容,简要概述中学生中普遍存在的对考试失败的两种态度,并结合自身实际,说明你的观点.要求:1.作文词数150个左右.2.可根据内容要点适当增加细节,以使行文连贯.3.开头已经给出,不计入总词数.As

on.Fortunately,other students take quite positive attitudes towards their setbacks.They spare no efforts in analyzing the cause of their failure and at the same time encourage themselves to become more confident so that they won't repeat their mistakes in their later examinations.As far as I'm concerned,I believe that failure is the mother of success.So long as we can find out the root cause of our failure and step up our efforts to improve our ways of learning,we can surely make great progress and turn our dream into reality..【解答】As middle school students,we have all taken examinations of

绝密★启用前【全国市级联考】江苏省如皋市2016-2017学年高二下学期期末教学质量调研英语试题试卷副标题考试范围:xxx ;考试时间:66分钟;命题人:xxx学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________注意事项.1.答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2.请将答案正确填写在答题卡上第I 卷(选择题)一、阅读理解(题型注释)Amsterdam Destination GuideAmsterdam is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world,famous for its beautiful canals,top art museum,cycling culture,and Red Light District.It is the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands and often referred to as the "Venice of the North" because of its expansive system of bridges and canals.Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam. Must-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre,which is full of traditional architecture, shopping centers,and coffee shops.Don't miss the Dam Square and the areas around Spui and Nieuwmarkt.The infamous Red Light District is also in this area,and definitely worth a visit to see what the type is about.You'll also want to check out Amsterdam's Museum Quarter in the South District,which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark.The top museums to visit are the Rijksmusuem,the Ann Frank试卷第2页,共14页House, and the Van Gogh Museum. If You Have TimeThere are several, and you should try to explore as many of them as time allows.The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a core for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.The Plantage area has most of the city's museum, including the Jewish Historical Museum, the Scheepvaart Museum,and the botanical gardens. Free Things to DoHave a picnic and bring a bottle of wine to relax and people-watch in Vondelpark Soak up some sun at one of city's beaches.Take a walk along the canals, smell the flowers, and browse markets along the way. Hop on one of several free ferry services across the IJ River for lovely city views. Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips blooming, avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May.This is when hotel and flight prices surge.Look for accommodations in Amsterdam's South District,where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide,hop on a canal boat.They're inexpensive and will give you a unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights,hotels,and rental cars before you book.1、According to the author, if you visit Amsterdam ________. A .you must begin your adventure in the Old Center B .you can live with a wealthy family in the Canal Ring C .you shall have a cup of wine free of chargeD .you can see the tulips blooming between mid-March and mid-May 2、Where is the tour guide from?A .A Newspaper.B .A brochure.C .A website.D .A magazine.In Hollywood, as in war, truth is often the first casualty. Stories told on screen demand heroes, devils and a clear plot line. Real life, on the other hand, tends to get messy —the lines betweengood and bad often cross. Two years ago, director Oliver Stone was severely criticized in the press for playing fast and loose with certain facts in JFK. Jim Sheridan's In the Name of the Father has largely escaped such criticism in the U.S., but only because Americans are unfamiliar with the story it is based on.In Britain,where people have lived with the case of the Guildford Four for 20 years,the film's reception has been considerably stormier.The movie tells the tale of Gerry Conlon,who along with three other youths was falsely accused of killing five people in a 1974 I.R.A.bombing of two pubs in Guildford,England.The four—three men and a woman—served 14 years in prison before their convictions(定罪)were overturned. Seven friends and relatives of Conlon's (the Maguire Seven),including his father,also served many years on false charges of having made the bombs.Though Sheridan never set out to make a documentary,he has been attacked for needlessly twisting the facts of the case.The film,for instance,shows the Maguire Seven on trial with the Guildford Four,though the cases were tried separately.In some of its most affecting scenes,it shows Conlon,played by Daniel Day-Lewis,sharing a jail cell with his father,though the two were often not even in the same prison.A grand and heroic part is carved for actress Emma Thompson,playing Conlon's lawyer,Gareth Peirce,but in reality Peirce was a minor figure and another lawyer, Alastair Logan,deserves most of the credit for freeing the Four.An important scene in which Peirce steals a crucial piece of evidence from a police file was fabricated for the film;it was a police investigation that uncovered the buried evidence of Conlon's innocence. Sheridan insists that he was seeking an "emotional honesty" and that the real subject of his film was a son's changing relationship with his father.But if that was his intended subject,say some close to the case,the director should have used someone else's story."The truth is that Gerry Conlon had very little time for his father,"says Sean Smyth,an uncle."It's a good film,well acted and everything,"admits Conlon's aunt,Anne Maguire."But I think if they'd put more of the true facts in,it would have been a much more powerful film."3、It can be inferred from the first paragraph that ________.A.films made in Hollywood are often the reflection of real lifeB.Oliver Stone,a well-known director,deserved high praise for his work in JFKC.the film In the Name of the Father is based on the case of Guildford FourD.Unlike Americans, British people think highly of the film In the Name of the Father4、According to the context, the underlined word "fabricated" (Para 3,) means "________".A.remarked B.invented C.convinced D.inspired试卷第4页,共14页5、Which of the following statements is the truth about the case Guildford Four? A .It was the police that finally proved Colon's innocence.B .In all,seven people,including Conlon's father,were put into prison.C .Colon and his father were tried together at the court.D .Emma Thompson, Colon's lawyer, played a key role in freeing him.Rent control, like all other government-mandated (强制执行的)PRICE CONTROL,is a law placing a maximum price, or a "rent ceiling," on what landlords may charge tenants (房客).It is a program designed to stop rents from rising rapidly and is used mainly in large urban areas where there are more people than housing. In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in the apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, almost all the critics conclude that rent control is destructive. They say after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. In a 1990 survey of 464 people published in the May 1992 issue of the American Economic Review ,93% of US respondents agreed that a ceiling on rents reduces the quantity and quality of apartments available. Landlords are too cautious (perhaps too smart) to put their faith in rental apartments because they know that the rental-controlled apartments cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any.Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity, Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.But the supporters make a big error. They fail torealize that it is possible for such a law to increase wages beyond the value of what the workers contributes.Economic theories predict the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if "other things are equal". Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.6、According to the passage, rent control will ________.A.encourage landlords to invest in apartmentsB.improve the quality of apartmentsC.protect the tenants' interestsD.cause a shortage of apartments7、We can infer from the passage that ________.A.many people won't find jobs if the minimum wage is setB.some economists do not agree with the economic theoriesC.economic theories are not always correctD.the results of economic decisions cannot always be predicted8、The passage is mainly about ________.A.the relationship between supply and demandB.the possible results of government controlsC.the economic theories about rent controlD.the urgency of getting rid of rent control9、The author's attitude towards the rent control and the minimum wage is ________. A.supportive B.objective C.critical D.indifferentRalph Waldo Emerson once said that in order to achieve contentment,one should "cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you,and to give thanks continuously."It turns out Emerson—who explored the meaning of a good life in much of his work—wasn't far off when it comes to what we now know about counting one's blessings.Research is continually finding that expressing thanks can lead to a healthier,happierand less-stressed lifestyle.试卷第6页,共14页How can we,as Emerson advised,be thankful for each thing that contributes to our lives?Below are four habits that could help you cultivate gratitude on a daily basis.Keep a journal.—Research has shown that writing down what you're thankful for can lead to a range of wellness benefits.Keeping a gratitude journal can reinforce positivethoughts —something particularly helpful as the brain tends to naturally focus on what goes wrong.Putting pen to paper can also help you make more progress as you work toward personal goals.In order to reap the full benefits of keeping a journal,Dr Robert Emmons,gratitude researcher and psychology professor at the University of California,Davis,recommends writing for five to 10 minutes every other day."You really need to commit to doing it,and if you write it down eventually it will become more automatic, "Emmons says. "It's like exercise —you're not just going to get up one morning and go running, you need to have a plan."Don't avoid the negative.—Expressing gratitude has been proven to generate more optimism, but thankful people also don't shy away from the negative. Emmons says that while we often associate gratitude with focusing on the good and avoiding the bad, the key to leading a thankful life is embracing setbacks as part of your overall journey. Emmons suggests recalling a hard time you once experienced —chances are,you'll start to feel grateful for your current state and for overcoming former challenges.Spend time with loved ones.—Thankful people know they didn't get to where they are by themselves —and they make it a habit to spend time with those people who matter most. "Gratitude really helps us connect to other people," Emmons says. "It actually strengthens relationships and relationships are the strongest predictors of happiness and coping with stress." Expressing appreciation for loved ones can also help create closeness by allowing others to see how you look at them. According to Dr. Michael E. McCullough, a University of Miami researcher, your feelings of gratitude benefit more than just yourself. "More than other emotion, gratitude is the emotion of friendship," McCullough told the New York Times in 2011."It is part of a psychological system that causes people to raise their estimates of how much value they hold in the eyes of another person."Volunteer.—Everyone needs a little help sometimes —and grateful people know there's no other way to acknowledge this than by paying it forward. In his book "Thanks!," Emmons notes that those who volunteer often feel grateful for the experience to give back. "Since service to others helped them to find their own inner spirituality, they were grateful for the opportunity to serve," he wrote. As recent research published in BMC Public Health points out, volunteeringcan result in fewer feelings of depression and increased overall well-being. Emmons suggests examining your own talents and use them to help others, noting that people become more grateful as givers rather than receivers.10、According to the research, ________ is an important factor in having a healthy lifestyle. A.expressing gratitude B.cultivating good living habits C.achieving contentment D.exploring the meaning oflife11、According to Dr. Robert Emmons and Davis, what's important in keeping a gratitude journal?A.Reinforcing positive thoughts. B.Reaping fullbenefits.C.Doing exercises regularly. D.Committing to writing.12、What can we learn from paragraph 4?A.We should learn to hide from negative things.B.The hard times we have experienced may be valuable to us.C.It is easy to have a thankful life as long as have confidence.D.Sometimes thankful people are negative when facing hardships.13、Emmon's words on paragraph 5 suggest that ________.A.gratitude enhances relationships between peopleB.a feeling of gratitude generates appreciation for loved onesC.thankful people like to spend time with othersD.people should make a habit of being with others14、What does the last paragraph imply?A.Those who receive help will feel a bit depressed.B.Those who volunteer to help others will show more gratitude.C.When offered help,you'll feel grateful to the service.D.When offering help,you will feel grateful for your inner spirituality.15、What would be the best title for the passage?A.Gratitude for achieving contentmentB.Ways of Having a Healthier LifestyleC.Four Habits to Make You a Grateful personD.Gratitude Contributing to Success试卷第8页,共14页二、完形填空(题型注释)From the window of my room,I could see a tall cotton-rose hibiscus.In spring,when green leaves was half_______by mist,the_______looked very fascinating dotted with red blossom.This inspiring_______of mine often set my mind working.I gradually regarded it as my best friend._______,when I opened the window one morning,to my amazement, the tree was almost_______recognition as a result of the storm the night before.Struck by the sight,I was_______with a sadness at the thought "all the blossom is condemned to fall".I could not help_______with emotion: the course of life never runs smooth,for there are so many ups and downs,_______and turns.
