I have traveled a lot with my family over the years, but some experiences were worth forgetting altogether. I remember a particular traveling experience I had with my dad and stepmother, which sticks out in my mind for the wrong reason s.My dad and stepmother had decided to drive to California for our family vacation. This was supposed to provide educational value, since we would be able to stop along the way and look at various sites in each state. Everything was going as planned until we decided to take a break and stop at the Grand Canyon (大峡谷). I had always wanted to see this exciting place and had decided to write a report on it for the eighth-grade English class. We got out of the car and were walking on one of the paths to get to a cliff(悬崖) so we could take a family photo when I slipped and fell.I fell on a piece of rock, and immediately felt the pain shot up my leg. My dad took me to the nearest hospital and after an eight-hour wait in the emergency room, found out that my two bones in my foot broken.Needless to say, our vacation was no fun for me because I was in pain and had a plastic cast on my foot during the whole two-week trip. I ended up making an appointment the day we got home to see an orthopedist. That was definitely not what I consider fun or a great vacation, and it reallyput a dent in our sightseeing plans. Who knew that trying to take a family picture would ruin my family vacation? I make up my mind I’ll have to put safety first whenever I have a trip in future.36. Why does the author always remember the particular traveling experience?A. Because he wrote a good report on it.B. Because a terrible accident during the trip taught him a lesson.C. Because the sites there provided special educational value for him.D. Because they drove to California for the first time.37. The author slipped and fell when he was .A. talking to his fatherB. walking on a path to the cliffC. taking a photo of their familyD. overlooking the Grand Canyon38. From the text we can learn that .A. the bones of the author’s two legs were brokenB. the author waited for 8 hours before the treatmentC. the author was taken to the hospital near his homeD. the author’s trip lasted about half a month39. What does the underlined word “orthopedist” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. The man who helps comfort whoever is unhappy.B. The man who helps improve somebody’s studies.C. The man who helps prevent bone shapes being unnatural.D. The d octor who helps save one’s life by operation.BFor people who don’t fear death and love large angry hairy animals, the Pamplona Bull Run is the perfect festival for them. The running of the bulls is part of the San Fermin Festival, which begins on 6th, July and lasts until 14th, July every year in Pamplona, Spain. People run through streets with angry bulls running after them. A bit of advice, if you happen to fall while doing the run, curl into a ball and hope for the best.Every year on 21st, August in the El Salvadorian town of Nejapa, the festival Bolas de Fuego is held. Men on opposing teams throw burning clothes at each other. It is surely a dangerous act. However, it is a tradition that dates back as far as 1685 after a volcano erupted (爆发) in this town.The Baby Jumping Festival takes place in June each year in Castrillo de Murcia, Spain. It is a truly crazy Spanish practice that dates all the way back to 1620. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies born in the last 12 months of the year. The main aim of the festival is to protect babies against illness and evil spirits.Now this is one for all cheese lovers. On the Spring Bank Holiday in May, the British gather on the top of Coopers Hill and from the top they roll down a 4-kg round of Double Gloucester cheese and then run afterit. The first person over the finish line without injuries wins the cheese. The cheese can reach a speed of 112 km/h. Injuries are common. Luckily, doctors are waiting just beyond the finish line.The mud festival held every year at Boryeong in South Korea is a bit dirty as it sounds. However, for lovers of mud-wrestling, this is the festival that is not to be missed.There are many other odd festivals around the world. I’d like to introduce you some more next time.40. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies in order to .A. celebrate the birth of new livesB. teach babies to become braveC. celebrate new babies’ first birthdayD. protect babies against illness and evil spirits41.

Those who find the heaviest cheese win the game.D. A participant has to reach a speed of 112 km/h in order to win.42. Which of the following pictures shows the festival that is held in South Korea?A.

The writer wrote this passage mainly to .A. tell us the history of several strange festivalsB. introduce several strange festivals around the worldC. show that people like doing strange things in their free timeD. tell us what festivals to avoid when we travel abroadCIf your high school doesn’t have a newspaper,you can help start one online. If your high school already has a printed newspaper, adding an online version can help you reach new audiences and add new content. It’s also cheaper to show than a printed version. A digital newspaper can be a chance for high school students to gain experience with journalism and with working online.Discuss with other student journalists to decide what kind of online newspaper you want. If your news site will only have an article or two a day, you may want to use a blog template(模板). If you plan to publish a more magazine-style weekly edition with more stories, you will probably want a m ore complicated front page to show what’s in each issue. Your website will also need to support any additional features such as slide shows (幻灯片放映) and polls.After you have decided what you want your newspaper to look like, try to collect some money. Although it’s possible to launch a website for free, even $50 will help your newspaper buy a memorable website address.These expenses can be made back later through online advertising.Create content for your newspaper. Along with written articles, an online newspaper is a great place for multimedia and interactive content such as photo slide shows, videos, polls, forums and calendars. Use a mix of content and a variety of voices to encourage more page views.Market your newspaper. You can promote it through old-fashioned announcements such as flyers (宣传单) and word of mouth, but it might be better to advertise through e-mails or messages and posts on social networking sites such as Facebook, Myspace and Twitter.44. You can use a blog template if .A. you want to have an interaction with othersB. you want to receive comments from readersC. you have just a few articles a dayD. you have many articles a day45. What can we infer from the third paragraph?A. It’s possible to attract advertising to online newspapers.B. You can use a memorable website address for free.C. It takes only $50 to start an online newspaper.D. Advertising is free in online newspapers.46. What’s the purpose of using a mix of content and a variety of voices?A. To get more useful advice.B. To collect more money.C. To attract more authors.D. To attract more viewers. 47. Why does the author suggest using Facebook, Myspace and Twitter?A. To make your newspapers more popular.B. To make more friends through them.C. To borrow some articles from them.D. To learn from them.DBy far the most important factor is how much time you are immersed in the language. The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn. This means listening, reading, writing, speaking, and studying words and phrases. This does not mean sitting in class looking out of the window, nor listening to other students who do not speak well. This means spending time enjoyably connecting to the language you are learning.Listen wherever you are on your MP3 player. Read what you are listening to. Listen to and read things that you like, things that you can mostly understand, or even partly understand. If you keep listening and reading, you will get used to the language. One hour of listening or reading is more effective than many hours of class time.Build up your vocabulary; you’ll need lots. Start to notice words and how they come together as phrases. Learn these words and phrases through your listening and reading. Read online, use online dictionaries, and make your own vocabulary lists for review. Gradually you will be ableto use them. Do not worry about how accurately you speak until you have accumulated (积累) plenty of words through listening and reading.Choose content of interest that you want to listen to and read. Seek out the words and phrases that you need to understand. Do not wait for someone else to show you the language, nor to tell you what to do. Discover the language by yourself, like a child growing up. Talk when you feel like it. Write when you feel like it. A teacher cannot teach you to become fluent, but you can learn to become fluent if you want to.Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or cannot yet understand, or cannot yet say. It does not matter. You are learning and improving. The language will gradually become clearer in your brain. So sit back and enjoy. Just make sure you spend enough time with the language. That is the greatest guarantee of success.48. What should we do to learn a foreign language well?A. Listen to other students whether they speak well or not.B. Speak a language accurately from the very beginning.C. Discover a language by yourself, like a child growing up.D. Ask your parents or a teacher to tell you what to do.49. Where should we listen to a language?A. In the classroom.B. Wherever we are.C. On the Internet.D. In the street.50. The text is mainly intended for .A. parentsB. teachersC. language learnersD. school leaders51. What’s the best title of the passage?A. The importance of learning a foreign languageB. How to learn a foreign languageC. Why to learn a foreign languageD. When to learn a foreign languageEAlex Scott, a brave young girl with a strong mind, wanted to make a difference for all children who have cancer with her lemonade stands and left a legacy (遗赠) of hope. This reminds us of the power one person can have by taking a stand for a worthy cause.Alex was born to Jay and Liz Scott from Manchester, CT. Before her first birthday she was diagnosed (诊断) with neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. This type of cancer affects the nervous system. Jay and Liz were told by doctors that if Alex beat the cancer she would most likely never walk again. Challenging the doctors’ prediction, Alex was crawling(爬) by her second birthday and able to stand up. She continued to gain strength and to learn how to walk. This was just the start of her unstoppable spirit.Withi n the next year, Alex’s tumors (肿瘤) started to grow again, and, in the year 2000, a day after her fourth birthday, she received astem cell transplant(移植). She informed her mother that when she left the hospital she would have a lemonade stand to help doctors find a cure for childhood cancer.True to her words, Alex had her first lemonade stand later that year. She raised $2,000 for her hospital, a remarkable achievement. Alex continued to hold lemonade stands annually in her front yard, while battling can cer. When the news spread of this extraordinary young girl’s helping other sick children, people all over the world became inspired to hold their own stands and donated the income to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.When Alex passed away in August 2004, at the age of 8, she had raised over $1 million for childhood cancer research with the help of others. Liz and Jay, along with their three sons, Patrick, Eddie and Joey, continue the promise to Alex and all children with cancer, the promise of hope for a cure.Since 2004, because of Alex’s giving nature, adults and children have joined in the fight for a cure hosting over 8,000 Alex’s Lemonade Stands across the country. These stands represent different groups of devoted volunteers from large and small businesses, inner city school children, senior centers, pre-school aged children, middle school students, college students, and a group of homeless people.The lesson, according to the website of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, that everyone learns from holding their own lemonade stands is simple but powerful —every person can make a difference in the world.In the spirit of Martin Luther King’s famous quote, “Everybody can be great, because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve … You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation shares the vision of its founder and creator, Alexandra “Alex” Scott — a cure for all children with cancer. You can hold your own Alex’s Lemonade Stand to help raise funds for childhood cancer research. This is a great way to teach children about the virtue(美德) of service in a fun, easy and inexpensive way. For more information, contact Alex’s Lemona de Stand Foundation.52. When Alex decided to hold a lemonade stand, she wanted to .A. battle cancer in a special wayB. raise money for her future treatmentC. raise money for childhood cancer researchD. spread news of an extraordinary girl53. Before Alex’s death, her family had promised that they would .A. join the cancer research groupB. look after other sick children in hospitalC. donate more to Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD. continue her hope for a cure of childhood cancer54. What can we learn from Alex’s story?A. Everyone can make a difference.B. Many hands make light work.C. Each of us could have a lemonade stand.D. The good are all rewarded.55. What is the best title of this passage?A. Alex’s Battl ing Against Childhood CancerB.How to Cure Childhood CancerC. Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD.

Some expressions have made a jump from sports events to everyday life. One such expression is fall guy. A fall guy is the person who someone decides will be the loser or victim.The first fall guys were men who wrestled for money. At the end of the 19th century,wrestling was a very popular sport in the United States. Wrestling competitions were held not only in big cities but also at country fairs and traveling shows. However, as the sport became more popular, it became less and less of a sport, as many of the matches were operated. The wrestlers knewbefore the matchwhich one of them would be the winner.The goal in wrestling is to hold the shoulders of your opponent down against the floor. This is called a fall. Sometimes, one of the wrestlers would be paid before the match to take the fall. He would agree________________—the fall guy.Today, a fall guy is anyone who is tricked into taking the blame for the crime or wrongdoing of someone else. There are fall guys in many s ituationspeople who publicly take the blame when something goes wrong.A fall guy takes the rap for something wrong or illegal. He accepts responsibility and punishment for what someone else did. He may have something to do with the situation, but is not the person who should be blamed.The word rap has meant blame for several hundred years. The expression to take the rap was first used about one hundred years ago. Another similar expression is bum rap.

2021-2022年高二英语上学期第14周周考试题

2021-2022年高二英语上学期第14周周考试题第一节：阅读理解（9*3=27分）A“I once hoped to afford a wonderful telescope, but now I wish my father would be back.” Lucy Lawrence’s letter to Father Christmas written after his father had been knifed to death outside his school gate, must have touched every heart. Lucy went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky. When those whom we love depart from us, we cannot see the stars for a while.But Lucy, the stars are still there, and one day, when you are older and your tears have gone ,you will see them again . And, in a strange way, I expect that you will find your father is there too, in your mind and in your heart . I find that my parents , long dead now , still occur in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive . I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions. I remember that when I became a professor , I was so proud , or rather so pleased with myself , that I couldn’t wait to write to my parents . The reply was a long time in ing, but when it did, allMother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children! ” I haven’t forgotten. The values of my parents still live on.It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care. Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors, and to lay down my life for those in my care ? How many people would want me back for Christmas? It’s a serious thought, one to give me pause.I pray silently , sometimes , in the dead of night ,that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword（剑）, and my darling from the power of the evil .” Yet I know the death es to us all, and sometimes es suddenly. We must therefore plan to live forever, but live as if we will die tomorrow. We live on, I’m sure, in the lives of those we loved, and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure. If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true, there might be fewer knives on our streets today.1 According to the whole text we can see that the first paragraph .A. shows the author’s pity on the kidB. acts as an introduction to the discussionC. puts forward the subject of the textD. makes a clear statement of the author’s opinions2 In the second paragraph the author mainly wants to explain to us .A. why his parents often appear in his dreamB. how much he misses his parents nowC. when Lucy will get over all his sadnessD. how proud he was when he succeeded in life3 What feeling did the author’s mother express in her reply?A. Proud.B. Excited.C. Uninterested.D. Uneasy.4 What does the writer mean by the sentence taken from an old poem?A. Call on criminals and murderers to lay down their guns.B. Advise parents stay with their children safely at home.C. Try to keep violence and murder far away from society.D. Spend every day meaningfully in memory of the death.BIn my living room，there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to“Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy.I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville，Kentucky.The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program.Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who“bloomed”in her remote a rea.Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County，Kentucky，Appalachian Mountain area.To get to her school from the town of Harlan，I followed a road winding around the mountain.In the eightmile journey，I crossed the same railroad track five times，giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times.Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains，I found it depressing.The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.From the moment of my arrival at the little school，all gloom (忧郁) disappeared.Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom.I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen.The children had been prepared toshow me their latest projects.Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for“dinner”(lunch)．In case you don’t know，poke greens are a weedtype plant that grows wild，especially on poor ground.Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students.Her enthusiasm never cooled down.When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification，Dorothy was ready.She came to the assessment and passed in all areas.Afterward，she invited me to the oneandonly steak house in the area to celebrate her victory，as if she had received her Ph.D.degree.After the meal，she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand.She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝)，but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.5．“Early Childhood Development”in Paragraph 1 refers to________.A．a program directed by Dorothy B．a course given by the author C．an activity held by the students D．an organization sponsored by Union college6．In the journey，the author was most disappointed at seeing________.A．the long track B．the poor houses C．the same train D．the winding road7．Upon arriving at the classroom，the author was cheered up by________.A．a warm wele B．the sight of poke greensC．Dorothy’s latest projects D．a big dinner made for her 8．What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant. B．She got a pen as a gift from the author.C．She passed the required assessment. D．She received her Ph.D.degree.9．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?A．Whatever you do，you must do it carefully.B．Whoever you are，you deserve equal treatment.C．However poor you are，you have the right to education.D．Wherever you are，you can acplish your achievement.第二节完形填空（共20 小题；每小题2 分，共40 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的所给选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

高二英语下学期第周周练试题高二全册英语试题

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校度下学期高二英语第14周周练试卷第一部分阅读理解（共10小题，每题2.5分，满分20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AFarming is moving indoors, where the sun never shines, where rainfall is irrelevant and where the climate is always right. The perfect crop field could be inside a windowless building with controlled light, temperature, wetness, air quality and nutrition. It could be in a New York high-rise or a sprawling complex (综合楼) in the Saudi desert. It may be an answer to the world’s food problems.The world is already having trouble feeding itself. Half the people on Earth live in cities, and nearly half of those--about 3 billion--are hungry or ill-fed. Food prices, currently increasing, are buffeted by dryness, floods and the cost of energy required to plant, harvest and transport. And prices will only get more unstable. Climate change makes long-term crop planning uncertain. Farmers in many parts of the world are already using water available to the last drop. And the world is getting more crowded: by mid-century, the global population will grow from 6. 8 billion to 9 billion.To feed so many people may require expanding farmland at the expense of forests and wilderness, or finding ways to completely increase crop output.Gertjan Meeuws has taken the concept of a greenhouse a step further, growing vegetables and house plants in enclosed(封闭的) and regulated environments. In their research station, water flows into the pans when needed, and the temperature is kept constant. Lights go on and off, creating similar day and night, but according to the rhythm of the plant.A building of 100 square meters and 14 layers(层) of plants could provide a daily diet of 200 grams of fresh fruit and vegetables to the entire population of Den Bosch, about 140, 000 people. Their idea is not to grow foods that require much space, like corn or potatoes.Here sunlight is not only unnecessary but can be harmful. Plants need only specific wavelengths of light to grow. Their growth rate is three times faster than under greenhouse conditions. They use about 90 percent less water than outdoors agriculture. And city farming means producing food near the consumer, and there’s no need to transport it long distances.28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. The climate is worse and worse.B. The city people live a hard life.C. The world has difficulty feeding its people. D The world’s population is increasing fast29. The underlined word “buffeted” in Paragraph 2 means“”.A. badly affectedB. preventedC. demandedD. well achieved30. It can be inferred from the text that Gertjan Meeuws’s farming .A. helps save sea water a lotB. suits different conditionsC. is completely different from greenhouse agricultureD. suits the production of corn31．What is the text mainly about?A. Development of indoor farming.B. Great Revolution in farming.C. Advantages of indoor farming.D. Sunless, rainless indoor farming.BChina’s local pension funds will launch a first wave of making profits in the national stock market（） by the end of this year before an ageing population becomes a difficulty in economy. The government has announced an ambitious plan that could help local governments overcome record-low interest rates and reduce the Chinese stock market’s volatility（波动）.The human resources ministry said that a number of local governments had moved money to the National Social Security Fund, where managers have good reasons to make money in riskier programs, including up to 40 per cent in stocks and stock funds. This first wave will release between Rmb200billion-Rmb400billion ($30bn-$60bn), according to analysts.The government started drawing up plans for such moves to the NSSF in June last year and the expansion of the NSSF, which heldRmb1.9trillion in 2015, will increase its power in the national stock market, reducing the influence of individual investors and probably creating a more stable flow of money into stock markets. If all provinces join the program, that would mean up to Rmb2trillion more could flow into stocks. “In theory, it’s a good thing to do and should increase profits,” said Stuart Leckie, Stirling Finance chairman, who has advised the government on pension reform. “But it was mostly done to support the stock market. They’re doing something good for the wrong r easons.”The Rmb5tn state pension funds managed by local governments are limited to making profits in safe programs such as bank deposits and government bonds. But these have had such low profits that local governments’ pension funds became less over the p ast decade, at a time when more and more are nearing retirement.The NSSF was founded in 2000 to help some provinces in the north-east but it has seemingly achieved an average profit of nearly 9 per cent per year over the past 15 years, which matches the performance of the more experienced Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. But some economists believe the reforms are not enough to ensure the life quality of the old.“I no longer think the Chinese system can be reformed,” said Peter Diamond, a Nobel Prize winner in economics who co-authored a book on Chinese pension reform. “It must be taken apart and built back from the beginning.”32.What’s the purpose of the great governmental plan mentioned at the beginning?A. To help the stock market go smoothly.B. To make more profits for the central government.C. Tostrength people’s confidence in pension fundsD. To increase the local bank interest rates.33. What does “wrong reasons” in paragraph 3 actually mean?A. The governments intended to increase the quantity of pension funds.B. The governments originally wanted to help the old live longer.C. The move of pension funds was to improve the stock market.D. Pension funds may obtain much benefit from money moves.34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The present reforms are of much practical use in bettering the life quality of the old.B. China’s system in pension funds is too perfect to reform compared with that of Canada.C. The system deserves deep consideration and even needs establishing once again.D. The reforms are of much urgency to the system being carried out in China.35. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Pension funds are certain to bring more benefit to the aged.B. The life of Chinese old people will be improved someday.C. Pension funds can help people to make profits in China.D. China’s local pension funds will move to the stock market.七选五We’ve all experienced peer pressure. It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they don’t want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps they're just curious about trying something new. 36 .It’s hard to be the only one who says no and the question is: how do you do it? 37 . If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple: don’t do it. It’s your decision, nobody else’s. You don’t need to be aggressive. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I don’t want to do that.”Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. 38 . You want friends who will support you when you’re in trouble. You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most p opular people aren’t always the most trustworthy.39 . You can learn a lot from people your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And don’t forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isn’t about feeling depressed and guilty. 40 .A. Choose your friends carefully.B. Firstly, you must decide what you believe in.C. It’s about sharing experiences and having fun.D. Of course, peer pressure isn’t completely bad.E. It may be because they were all born to be stubborn.F. Depression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure.G. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing things they really don’t want to.第二节完形填空 (共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)Many Tuesday mornings. I have coffee with my father.

The children were surveyed between 2003 and 2007. The researchers defined adequate physical activity as at least an hour of exercise outside of gym class at least five days a week. Children who spent three or more hours a day watching TV，playing computer games, or chatting with friends—aside from time in school or time spent doing homework—were classified as sedentary.The researchers found only one quarter of the boys and 15 percent of the girls were getting enough exercise by these definitions. A quarter of boys and nea rly 30 percent of girls were sedentary and didn't get enough exercise with girls less active than boys in every country aside from Zambia.Uruguay had the highest percentage of active boys, at 42 percent, while Zambia had the lowest, at 8 percent. Girls from India were the most active, with 37 percent meeting exercise recommendation, while girls from Egypt were the least active, with just 4 percent getting adequate exercise. Children in Myanmar were the least sedentary, with 13 percent of boys and 8 percent of gir ls classified as sedentary. The most sedentary nations were St. Lucia and the Cayman Islands, with 58 percent of boys and 64 percent of girls spending at least three hours a day in sedentary activities.People show deep concern for kids' lack of physical activity in various nations. Why do they have a low level of physical activity? Guthold speculated(推测)that urbanization(都市化) could be a factor as well as access to cars and TVs.16．If you are sedentary, you________．A．are a diligent student spending much time doing homeworkB．have at least an hour of exercise outdoors every dayC．like watching TV and playing computer gamesD．spend a lot of t ime sitting down and not moving17．Which statement is TRUE about the finding of the study, led by Regina Guthold? A．Most children around the world don't meet the exercise recommendation. B．Girls in e very country are no more active than boys.C．Children in rich countries relatively get less physical activities.D．Only 4 percent of the girls from Egypt are not active in exercise.18．Which could be the best title of the passage?A．American children are addicted to TVs and computersB．Nearly one third of children globally are couch potatoesC．Effects of physical activities on healthD．Unimaginable standard of physical health19．What would the writer be most likely to d iscuss in detail in the following paragraphs?A．The suitable amount of physical activities for stud ents.B．Some of the factors for the popularity of cars and TVs among the kids.C．The reasons behind th e lack of physical activities.D．The ways to make the most of physical activities.Ⅲ.阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题。

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期高二英语第14 周周练试卷第一部分阅读理解（共10 小题，每题 2.5 分，满分20 分）阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、 B、C 和D）中，选出最正确选项AAsimple gesture can be formed into a child’ s memory so quickly that it willcause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture.A new finding suggests that parents, social workers, psychologists and lawyersshould be careful with their hands as well as their words.While memories of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion,those of children are known to be particularly influenced, said lead researcherSara Broaders of Northwestern University. Kids are used to looking to adults totell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally.Previous research, for example, has shown that detail-loaded questions oftencause false answers; when asked, say“ Did you drink juice at the picnic?”the child is likely to say“ yes” even if no juice had been available. It is notthat the child is consciously lying, but rather the detail is quickly formed intohis or her memory.To avoid this problem, social workers have long been advised to ask childrenonly open-ended questions, such as “ What did you have at the picnic? open-ended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box,”isBut antreatedlike a detailed question. That is, children become likely to answer falsely.And it isn ’ t just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of falseinformation when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture. Gestures mayalso become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users, such aslittle kids, Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliarwords and phrases.“ It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “ try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might begetting answers that don’ t reflect what actually happened.”32.According to the text, gestures __________.A. have not any function at allB. are rarely used by people33.Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures according to Sara Broaders?A. These gestures are very attractive.B. Their memories are affected easily.C. Children are easy to tell lies.D. these gestures are used frequently.34.According to the text, which of the following questions may cause a wrongreply?A. What will you have for lunch?B. Did you cheat in the last English examination?C. Where are you going Lucy?D. Did you see anything else last night?35. The underlined word “ impart A. separate B. tell apart” in Paragraph 6 means ________.C. confuseD. pass on B 七选五People lie all the time, but depending on how skilled they are.It can bedifficult to determine when someone is lying to you. Do you know how to recognizethe signs that someone is lying to you?361. Liars make false eye contact.A person who is lying to you won’ t make eye contact with you or they make too much eye contact.If a person is lying he may feel you are watchinghim andhe will look down at the floor or away from your eyes. Some people try tostare at you in the face in a deliberate way. 372. Liars avoid using contractions(缩略语)The liars will say“ I did NOT notice your money”， instead of“I didn’ tnotice your money ” .

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期高二英语第14周周练试卷第一部分阅读理解（共10小题，每题2.5分，满分20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AAsimple gesture can be formed into a child’s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture. A new finding suggests that parents, social workers, psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.While memories of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion, those of children are known to be particularly influenced, said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University. Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally.Previous research, for example, has shown that detail-loaded questions often cause false answers; when asked, say “Did you drink juice at the picnic?” the child is likely to say “yes” even if no juice had been available. I t is not that the child is consciously lying, but rather the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.To avoid this problem, social workers have long been advised to ask children only open-ended questions, such as “What did you have at the picnic?” But an open-ended question paired with a gesture, briefly meaning a juice box, is treated like a detailed question. That is, children become likely to answer falsely.And it isn’t just a few kids: 77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture. Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users, such as little kids, Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases. “It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”In general, Broaders advises parents and other adults to “try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event. Otherwise, you might be getting answers that don’t reflect what actually happened.”32. According to the text, gestures __________.A. have not any function at allB. are rarely used by peopleC. have certain effect on childrenD. are often used by social workers33. Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures according to Sara Broaders?A. These gestures are very attractive.B. Their memories are affected easily.C. Children are easy to tell lies.D. these gestures are used frequently.34. According to the text, which of the following questions may cause a wrong reply?A. What will you have for lunch?B. Did you cheat in the last English examination?C. Where are you going Lucy?D. Did you see anything else last night?35. The underlined word “impart” in Paragraph 6 means ________.A. separateB. tell apartC. confuseD. pass onB七选五People lie all the time, but depending on how skilled they are.It can be difficult to determine when someone is lying to you. Do you know how to recognize the signs that someone is lying to you? 361. Liars make false eye contact.A person who is lying to you won’t make eye contact with you or they make too much eye contact.If a person is lying he may feel you are watchinghim and he will look down at the floor or away from your eyes. Some people try to stare at you in the face in a deliberate way. 372. Liars avoid using contractions(缩略语)The liars will say “I did NOT notice your money”，instead of “ I didn’t notice your money”. This is an attempt by the liars to be absolutely clear what they mean. 383.Strange Body Language.Liars often feel uneasy, turn away from the person to whom they are speaking, blinkrapidly, smile less and have pitch changes in their tone of voice. They may cross their arms which is a sign of being “closed” or trying not to reveal too much information. 39. They could touch parts of their face, an ear or a nose or play with keys or another item that they have in their hand.4. Liars provide additional information without being asked for it.40. The result is the more complicated the story is, the less believable it will be. You will have the feeling that nothing could be further from the truth.A. Usually, it ends up making the story a lot less believable.B. Here are some easy ways to help you recognize liars and catch lies.C. Sometimes people will look unnatural when they are lying.D. They will get angry if you doubt their story.E. They seem to think that by telling their story in detail, you will find it more believable.F. They try to change the subject or move the conversation in a different direction.G. In this way, they feel like making eye contact will make what they are saying more believable.第二节完形填空 (共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)When I was fifteen, I announced to my English class that I was going to write my own books.

The children were surveyed between xx and xx.The researchers defined adequate physical activity as at least an hour of exercise outside of gym class at least five days a week. Children who spent three or more hours a day watching TV，playing puter games, or chatting with friends —aside from time in school or time spent doing homework—were classified as sedentary.The researchers found only one quarter of the boys and 15 percent of the girls were getting enough exercise by these definitions. A quarter of boys and nea rly30 percent of girls were sedentary and didn't get enough exercise with girls less active than boys in every country aside from Zambia.Uruguay had the highest percentage of active boys, at 42 percent, while Zambia had the lowest, at 8 percent. Girls from India were the most active, with 37 percent meeting exercise remendation, while girls from Egypt were the least active, with just 4 percent getting adequate exercise. Children in Myanmar were the least sedentary, with 13 percent of boys and 8 percent of gir ls classified as sedentary. The most sedentary nations were St. Lucia and the Cayman Islands, with 58 percent of boys and 64 percent of girls spending at least three hours a day in sedentary activities.People show deep concern for kids' lack of physical activity in various nations. Why do they have a low level of physical activity? Guthold speculated(推测)that urbanization(都市化) could be a factor as well as access to cars and TVs. 16．If you are sedentary, you________．A．are a diligent student spending much time doing homeworkB．have at least an hour of exercise outdoors every dayC．like watching TV and playing puter gamesD．spend a lot of t ime sitting down and not moving17．Which statement is TRUE about the finding of the study, led by Regina Guthold?A．Most children around the world don't meet the exercise remendation.B．Girls in e very country are no more active than boys.C．Children in rich countries relatively get less physical activities. D．Only 4 percent of the girls from Egypt are not active in exercise. 18．Which could be the best title of the passage?A．American children are addicted to TVs and putersB．Nearly one third of children globally are couch potatoesC．Effects of physical activities on healthD．Unimaginable standard of physical health19．What would the writer be most likely to d iscuss in detail in the following paragraphs?A．The suitable amount of physical activities for stud ents.B．Some of the factors for the popularity of cars and TVs among the kids.

T est 14Once there was a little boy，who often got angry for some unknown reasons.His parents felt __1__ about his bad behavior but didn’t know __2__ to deal with the matter.One day his father gave him a bag of nails，telling him that __3__ he lost his temper，he must __4__ a nail into the back of the fence.At first the boy felt __5__ at his father’s words.But he did as he was told.The first day the boy had __6__ six nails into the fence.Over the next few weeks，as he learned to __7__ his anger，the number of nails hammered daily was __8__ reduced.He discovered it was __9__ to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.Finally the day came __10__ the boy didn’t lose his temper at all.He told his father about the __11__ and the father suggested that the boy now __12__ one nail each day till he was able to __13__ his temper.The days passed and __14__ the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were __15__.The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.He said，“Y ou have done well，my son，but look at the __16__ in the fence.The fence will __17__ be the same.When you say things in anger，they leave a __18__ just like this one.Y ou can put a knife in a man and draw it out.No __19__ how many times you say I’m sorry，the __20__ is still there.A mental wound is as bad as a physical one.”1．A.worried B．angryC．discouraged D．patient2．A.what B．whyC．who D．how3．A.every time B．whileC．if only D．even if4．A.supply B．removeC．hammer D．separate5．A.pleased B．puzzledC．curious D．excited6．A.pulled B．pushedC．printed D．driven7．A.control B．keepC．increase D．hide8．A.possibly B．graduallyC．terribly D．hardly9．A.harder B．earlierC．easier D．sharper10．A.until B．afterC．before D．when11．A.change B．decisionC．plan D．design12．A.pull back B．pull downC．pull up D．pull out13．A.release B．smoothC．hold D．destroy14．A.partly B．simplyC．fully D．finally15．A.stolen B．goneC．ordinary D．special16．A.dirt B．materialsC．shades D．holes17．A.ever B．soonC．never D．certainly18．A.scar B．factC．victory D．truth19．A.wonder B．matterC．doubt D．certain20．A.struggle B．supportC．surprise D．woundWe are not crazy about the television at the Daily Apple.We’d like to agree with the recent report comparing the difference between a TV and a computer：when you use one you turn your brain on，with the other you turn it off.Y our brain may not be the only thing the TV turns off.It seems that men who watch a lot of TV are more sedentary (久坐不动)，eat more food and are generally much fatter.Similar results have been found for women.Experts think that watching TV means that not only are you sedentary，but you have to watch food advertisements inducing (引诱) you to eat more.The food that you are being introduced to eat may not be good enough for your health.If you are a_couch_potato，here are some suggestions：Tape a piece of paper to the back of your remote control or TV Guide，and every time you watch a show，note how long you sit there and what you eat.Review the record after a week.This can be a shock.Don’t have a TV in your bedroom；having a TV in the bedroom greatly increases viewing time and if you tend to eat while viewing，the results are obvious.Think of a healthy way instead of watching TV that you like.This can be as simple as walking the dog or walking to visit a neighborhood regularly.After a few months you are likely to be surprised about how much more time you seem to have and how much better you feel.1．The writer of this passage believes ________.A．using a computer does good to your brainB．watching TV can keep your brain healthyC．only after turning off a TV do you start to use your brainD．the more you watch，the more you use your brain2．The underlined phrase “a couch potato” best describes a person who is ________.A．too fat because of eating too many potatoesB．too short because of lying on the couch all the timeC．small and round because of sitting for a long timeD．lazy and spends too much time watching TV on a sofa3．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________.A．you will prefer computer to a TV setB．the writer wants to persuade you to give up your TV setC．the writer’s suggestion will surely workD．you will probably be surprised at what the writer says4．The best title for this passage should be ________.A．A Couch PotatoB．Compare a TV with a ComputerC．Suggestions for Y our HealthD．Less Time on Television1．One day his father gave him a bag of nails，telling him that every time he lost his temper，he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.(完形填空第二段) 一天，他的爸爸给了他一包钉子，告诉他每次他发脾气时，就往篱笆上钉一个钉子。
