高二英语月考试题2018.9考试范围：Units1---3 考试时间：120分钟满分：150分一、听力部分（共30分）二、阅读理解(共30分）1.（8分）AFrancis Bacon,one of the most important philosophers(哲人)of England,was born in London and educated at Cambridge University.When he was only 15,he went to France to work for the English ambassador(大使).Two years later he went to England to study law.At the age of twenty three he was chosen to parliament(议会).His ideas about how scientists should study things in nature help to bring the modern way of thinking,called the scientific method.One of the Bacon best known books was his Essays.Each essay was a short piece of writing in which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying,conversation,friends and healthful living.In many of his books,Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they really exist in nature and then try to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it ter,by doing experiments,the scientists could see that any one cause would always have the same result.This method,which is called inductive reasoning,is used by all the scientists today,but it was new in Bacon’s time.（21）According to the passage we know that ________.A.Francis Bacon was the most important philosopher of EnglandB.Francis Bacon had good educationC.Francis Bacon worked for a French ambassador at the age of 15D.Francis Bacon stayed in France until he was 23（22）It can be known that Francis Bacon was famous for________.A.inventing the scientific method of studying things in natureB.his booksC.his method,inductive reasoningD.being a member of parliament（23）His essays gave many useful lessons on ________.A.studyingB.conversationC.friends and healthful livingD.All of the above.（24）The underlined phrase “inductive reasoning” in the last paragraph means________.A.discovering general laws from particular facts or examplesB.reaching a conclusion by reasoning from general laws to a particular caseC.studying things as they used to beD.studying things in a particular way2.（8分）BDogs are man's best friends.This everyday saying may contain some truth，but dogs are not the only animal friends that people like.For example，cats can be excellent house pets，too.People enjoy the friendship of cats.Cats love to keep close to their owners.Cats are quite playful.They love to run after balls，or play with anything hanging from a string. They especially enjoy playing when their owners play the game with them.Just like a dog，a cat can be trained to perform tricks（诡计）or avoid unwanted behaviour.Cats do not have to be walked.They get plenty of exercise in the house as they play，and they do their business in their litter boxes.So their owners only need to spend time cleaning their litter boxes.Washing a cat is almost never necessary because cats usually clean themselves.In addition，cats can be left alone at home for a few hours without any worry.Unlike some pets，most cats willnot destroy the furniture when left alone.They just go about their usual activities until their owners return.Cats are polite members of a family.Unlike dogs，cats do not make lots of loud noise. They walk very quietly.Also，cats don't often have “accidents”．Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box，and most cats will use it from that time on.Cats keep their energy by sleeping more than most animals，especially as they grow older.（25）From the passage，we can learn that ______.A.cats would rather play with themselvesB.cats often play tricks on their ownersC.many people think dogs are man's best friendsD.cats sleep less than any other animal does（26）What can be concluded（推断） from the passage?A.Cats are very easy to be kept as house pets.B.Cats need more time to do exercise than dogs.C.Cats are afraid of being left alone at home.D.Cats don't like to clean themselves.（27）In the fourth paragraph，we can learn that cats are ______.A.playfulB.cuteC.politeD.noisy（28）Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?A. B. C. D.3.（6分）Dolphins are not fish，but warmblooded animals.They live in groups，and speak to each other in their own language.In this way they are like other animals，such as bees and birds.But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals.Their brain is nearly the same size as our own，and they live a long time—at least twenty or thirty years.Like some other animals，dolphins use sound to help them find their way around.They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds，but the lower part of the mouth，called the jaw.Strangely，dolphins seem to like man，and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century.In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand，they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack.From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way.Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called the Penguin shot and wounded(伤害)Jack.He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area—except for the Penguin. Today，some people continue to kill dolphins，but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.（29）Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A.live in groupsB.have large brainsC.are warmbloodedD.have their own language（30）Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A.He was lonely and liked to be with people.B.They enjoyed playing with him.C.He was seriously wounded.D.They wanted his help.（31）By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A.dolphins are friendly and cleverB.people are cruel to animalsC.Jack is different from other dolphinsD.dolphins should be protected by law4.（8分）Without proper planning，tourism can cause problems.For example，too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of the country.If tourists create too much traffic，the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy.It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem.If tourism grows too quickly，people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry.This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand，if there is not enough tourism，people can losejobs.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels，airports，firstclass roads，and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions.For example，a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build.If this room is not used most of the time，the owners of the hotel will lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many other support facilities as well，including roads to get to the hotel，electricity，sewers(下水道)to handle waste，and water.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are not used because there are not enough tourists，jobs and money are lost.（32）Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A.It is extremely important to develop tourism.B.Building roads and hotels is important.C.Support facilities are highly necessary.D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.（33）The underlined word “inhabitants”(in Paragraph 1)probably means ______.A.citizensB.passengersC. populationD.tourists（34）Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ______.A.a bad effect on other industriesB.a change of tourists' customsC.overcrowdedness of places of interestD.pressure on traffic（35）It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.the author doesn't like tourism developing so fastB.local people will benefit from tourist attractionC.other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism muchD.we can't build too many support facilities三、阅读填空(共10分）5.（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。

河南省周口市鹿邑县2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
河南省周口市鹿邑县2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解If you’re wondering why indoor skate parks are becoming the hottest trend among the young ones, just think about the incredible benefits they offer:● Safety First: Indoor skate parks are designed with safety in mind, featuring soft ramps (斜坡), padded areas, and well-maintained obstacles, ensuring your kids can skate without the worry of weather-related risks.● Community Spirit: They are not just about skateboarding; they’re energetic communities where kids can make new friends, learn from each other, and share a positive atmosphere.● Professional Guidance: Most indoor parks have experienced instructors ready to help your kids learn and improve in a structured and supportive environment.Choosing the Best Indoor Skate Park for Your FamilyNow that you’re all stoked about indoor skate parks, it’s time to find the perfect one for your family’s needs. Here’s a checklist to help you make an informed choice:● Variety of Features: Look for a park with diverse areas and obstacles that cater to (迎合) all skill levels, from beginners to advanced skaters.● Cleanliness and Maintenance: A well-kept park is a happy park. Check out reviews or visit in person to ensure the facility is clean and well-maintained.● Staff Credentials (资质): Inquire about the qualifications of the staff and coaches. It’s essential they have the experience and skills to provide a safe and supportive learning environment.● Opening Times: Make sure the park’s schedule matches with your family’s routine. Consider memberships or punch cards if you plan on becoming regulars!● Snack Facilities: Active kids are hungry kids. See if there’s a cafe or snack bar to refuel after an energetic session.By keeping these points in mind, you’ll be able to find an indoor skate park that not only fuels the passion for skateboarding in your children but also becomes a regular spot for familybonding and fun.1．Who will most probably sign up for the indoor skate parks?A．A man caring about maintenance of a park.B．A designer interested in snack facilities.C．A kid eager to go for outdoor activities.D．A mother motivating her kids to learn skateboarding.2．What can we know about kids skating in indoor skate parks?A．They needn’t be concerned about weather’s impact.B．They can play skateboards with parents whenever.C．They will gain guidance from foreign instructors.D．They must compete with each other regularly.3．Which of the following may not be necessarily considered?A．The qualifications of the staff.B．Opening hours including holidays.C．Cleaning and safeguard of facilities.D．Accommodation and hotels.It is my first time playing the game, which I know nothing about. I am not a soccer fan, and every time I watch a match, I fall asleep within 10 minutes, without exception.Before I went to The Other Green’s salon held by La Otra — a women-themed bookstore in Beijing — last month, playing soccer never would have appeared on my bucket list. I regularly do yoga, cycle and swim, which, in my eyes, are good exercises for women, while soccer, definitely, is for men.How can soccer become a feminist (女权主义的) topic? What prevents women from participating in the game? Or is it really a game only for men? Keeping these questions in mind, I step into the salon and meet five members from the Beijing-based WM female soccer club. They look wonderful, with sunny smiles and athletic figures. And their passion and confidence impress me when they talk about how soccer has changed their lives.What’s more, they all faced societal prejudices about women playing soccer and want to break gender gaps. A tough player since primary school, Xiao Da used to be the only girl on the court and was excluded from school training because there was no girls’ team at her school.Being a working mother for seven years, my life has been limited to the office and home,and when I heard about the physical and mental benefits that it brings, I hoped soccer can make a difference in my boring life.This is where the story starts. After an hour of warm-up exercises and practising kicking a ball around, here comes the match time. I try to shoot twice, miss both times and I hurt my right leg for perhaps the following two weeks. I still feel the pain. But I also feel that, for me, happiness is real on the court. Soccer is more than just a game.4．What impression do the female soccer members leave on the author?A．They’re energetic and confident.B．They’re angry with gender prejudice.C．They’re always treated fairly.D．They’re respected by others.5．What does the underlined phrase “excluded from” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．Accepted.B．Refused.C．Elected.D．Protected.6．Why does the author take part in the soccer team?A．To satisfy her own curiosity.B．To be different from others.C．To make life more meaningful.D．To escape from the real world.7．What does the author imply in the last paragraph?A．She will give up playing soccer.B．She is determined to teach soccer.C．She takes a fancy to soccer.D．She gets more hurt than happiness from soccer.Most of us like shortcuts — the ones that get us to a place faster, whether we have to walk through a few trees or jump over a wall. But how far would you go to make a really good shortcut? Probably not as far as the Americans did when they built the Panama Canal, giving ships a quicker route between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific. When it opened in 1914, the canal cut the journey time from the east coast of the US to the west coast by as much as 15,000 kilometres.This was not an easy shortcut. Panama had been chosen mainly because it was the narrowest part of Central America. But the land was mountainous and full of tropical rain forests and it was still more than 80 kilometres wide. It’s said that almost 6,000 workers died from making the canal between 1904 and 1913, but the real number is probably much higher.As well as the difficult, dangerous job they had, those workers — many from the Caribbean — had to deal with heat, mosquitoes (蚊子), snakes and lots of rain. The result was a canal thathas been called one of the wonders of the modern world.Today, a ship entering the canal has to pass through three sets of locks. These are used like stairs, and they’re needed because the canal is not of the same height all the way through. The locks use lots of fresh water to lift up the boats-on average, 9 billion liters every day from lakes next to the canal.And although Panama is a wet country, the climate is changing, and there is less water now than there used to be. The Panama Canal is still a shortcut for now, but it’s in danger.8．How does the author develop Paragraph 1?A．By giving an example.B．By asking a question.C．By referring to old writings.D．By making an assumption.9．Why was the Panama Canal called a hard shortcut?A．Panama has complex geography characters.B．6, 000 workers died each year during its building process.C．Panama always came across terrible weather.D．Unknown wildlife increased challenges of making it.10．What do you think of the locks using fresh water?A．It is a waste of natural resource.B．It makes lakes next to the canal in danger.C．It is a must to keep boats run smoothly.D．It is a good way to deal with changeable climate.11．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Everyone Is Willing to Take ShortcutsB．The Great Canal Facing Climate ChangesC．The Panama Canal Is an Important ShortcutD．The Old Canal Lacking Water to Lift BoatsMore than 2,200 years ago, a battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians took place at sea off northwestern Sicily. Rome was victorious, defeating the other military ships and ending the war. While so much was destroyed at the time, scientists have recently discovered a shipwreck that was sunk in the battle with at least 114 animal species living on the ship’s ram (夯锤).The ram’s discovery is an important archaeological discovery. But finding it to be a host for so much underwater life also provides great insight for scientists studying how marine animals colonize (聚居) empty sites and slowly create diverse and rich communities there.The ram was recovered in 2017, located between 75 and 90 metres deep. It’s bronze and hollow, allowing it to accumulate (积累) sea creatures both inside and outside. Several years later the ram was cleaned and restored by researchers. All the marine animals found inside and outside the ram were collected, along with blocks of sediment (沉积物) and hardened materials from the same area.Scientists have been working to compare the species found in and around the ram with those found in similar Mediterranean habitats. They reconstructed how it had likely been colonized. “We conclude that the primary ‘constructors’ in this community are organisms which attach themselves directly to the wreck’s surface,” said Edoardo Casoli from Sapienza University of Rome. “Then there are ‘habitants’ which aren’t attached but move freely between empty spaces in the superstructure. What we don’t yet know exactly is the order in which these organisms colonize wrecks.”“Younger shipwrecks (遇难船只) typically host a less diverse community than their environment,” said Maria Flavia Gravina, another researcher. “By comparison, our ram is much more representative of the natural habitat. It can act as a novel kind of sampling tool for scientists, which effectively acts as an ‘ecological memory’ of colonization.”12．Why is the battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians mentioned?A．To lead in the topic.B．To draw a conclusion.C．To arouse the sympathy about the war.D．To clarify the serious damage caused by the war.13．How did scientists do researches about the marine animals on the ram?A．By creating the post-war situations.B．By comparing the habitats of 114 species.C．By restoration, reconstruction and comparison.D．By putting the organisms colonize wrecks in order.14．What does the underlined word “It” refer to in the last paragraph?A．The ship’s ram.B．The marine environment.C．A less diverse community.D．The natural habitat of marine animals. 15．Where is the text probably taken from?A．A guidebook to a sea exploration.B．An educational website.C．A government document.D．A natural science magazine.How to Introduce Friends to Other FriendsYou may find that you have two friends that you really want to introduce to each other.16 . If so, you can make an introduction by bringing them together and facilitate a new friendship. Regardless of how you introduce your friends, you will need to remember a few pieces of friendship etiquette (礼仪) to help the friendship blossom and ensure that you and your friends all stay on good terms.Bring your friends together.If you are at a party or some social gathering, bring your two friends together so that they can physically meet each other. 17 , or have one friend come with you while you look for the other one.

It is not your fault that a friendship did not blossom. Sometimes, people, who in theory should get along, simply do not like each other. Do not push it if they do not become friends. No one likes being forced into a relationship.A．Let it go if they do not like each otherB．Spare no effort to boost a new friendshipC．You can have one friend stay put while you track down the other oneD．However, it may be less awkward and more formal if you do the introductionE．You should let them know why you thought they would be friendsF．They may have a lot in common or be in a similar place in lifeG．Once you do the initial introduction, stick around to keep the conversation going二、完形填空In 2018, Julie Silverman developed a bad cough.

高二一月月考(英语)试题含答案
高二一月月考（英语）（考试总分：120 分）一、阅读理解（本题共计3小题，总分25分）1.（7.5分）As a marathon runner and regular gym fan, physical fitness was my life. All that changed in May 1997 when I survived a near-deadly car accident. After several weeks in unconsciousness, I woke up with a raspy(沙哑的) voice and no balance. I had to relearn how to sit, stand, walk and move about. Seven years of physical treatment later, I began walking on my own, though slowly and haltingly(跛). I keep a walker around for when I need to move quickly.During all these years of recovery, I remained a gym fan. As I watched the personal trainers working with their customers, I knew I was as fit as they were. So I decided this would be my new purpose. I started studying for the personal training certification exam immediately. Once I did, my health club immediately hired me.However, if you don’t obtain customers, you don’t work. Who was going to choose me with a health club full of able-bodied trainers? A medical consultant suggested I teach group exercise classes in senior homes. Over time, I’ve been able to add more classes, such as balance exercises. Balance work is so important for older people. And for me too! Now the exercises I teach are helping me as much as they do my class. The years as a physical treatment patient have given me lots of cues to use as I teach my classes.A personal trainer —on a walker? It’s not something you see every day. While my students aren’t athletes or body builders, working with seniors gives me an audience that appreciates what I have overcome through regular exercise. I’m able to encourage them beyond what they thought they could do. No longer do my disabilities embarrass me or make me feel ashamed. They have led me to a new purpose in life: inspiring and encouraging thoseI serve.21. What new career would the author take up?A. A gym athlete.B. A marathon runner.C. A physical fitness instructor.D. A physical treatment consultant.22. What inspired the author to work again?A. His audience.B. Others’advice.C. His disabilities.D. The love for gym.23. Why did the author serve the old people?A. He was also a senior with disabilities.B. He couldn’t obtain young customers.C. He had much experience in the senior health.D. He was not as professional as the other personal trainers.2.（10分）As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆).”According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories: that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.24. The passage begins with two questions to _________.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author’s attitudeC. describe how to use the InternetD. explain how to store information25. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to understand the information.D. The second group did not understand the information.26. In transactive memory, people _________.A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD.remember how to find the information27. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.3.（7.5分）From July to October every year, about a quarter of the world’s blue whales feed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California. But the whales currently face a major threat in their favorite feeding area. Ships carrying cargo (货物）sail in the same area at the same time. All too often, the whales’ paths and the ships’ travel lines overlap (重叠), and a ship will hit a whale.According to a new study, these ship strikes have become a serious threat to the overall population of the world’s blue whales. Only about 10,000 of the creatures still exist worldwide. Blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on Earth. Even so, if hit by a container ship, a blue whale will likely die from its injuries.In 2007 alone, large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says that because there are so few whales already, losing three to five from the California whale population every year is a significant loss. “The estimated population of blue whalesin this part of the Pacific is 2,500”, says Sean Hastings, a NOAA analyst. “So every whale counts toward this species moving off the endangered-species list.”Now, marine scientists must figure out how to protect the whales from the giant container ships. One very simple program is already under way in the Santa Barbara Channel, a waterway that separates mainland California from the nearby Channel Islands.The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to voluntarily slow down. Sailing slower will allow the ships crew (船员）more time to change course before hitting a whale.Several of the world’s largest shipping lines are set to participate in the new program. For every ship that passes through the Santa Barbara Channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots (海里/小时）, the company that owns the ship will be paid $2,500.28. From Paragraph 1, we can know that_____.A. people intend to illegally hunt blue whales for moneyB. large ships often carrying goods may pollute the seaC. the container ships may hit the blue whales frequentlyD. there is fewer fish in blue whales favorite feeding area29. According to Sean Hastings, it’s inferred that .A. the number of the blue whales is decreasing sharply.B. the blue whales are still on the endangered-species list.C. most of the world’s blue whales live in the Pacific Ocean.D. blue whales are often disturbed by other endangered creatures.30. What are the last three paragraphs mainly about?A. The basic responsibility of a sailor.B. Measures to protect the blue whales.C. The world’s largest shipping lines.D. Ways to slow down the speed of the ships.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）4.（10分）How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. 31. _______ Yes, evenstudents of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here are some tips for you:1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. 32._______ It’s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have enough time for both work and play.2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.3. 33._______ Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. 34._______ Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performances on test.5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide more than grades. 35. _______A. Be volunteer to raise questions.B. Make good use of your time in class.C. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.D. Those who make the best of their time study with more ease.E. They also let you know what you need to spend more time studying on.F. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule.G. This is not necessary the case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to.三、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）5.（30分）It was Mother’s Day and I was shopping at the local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson.

高二上学期英语第一次月考试题套真题
高二上学期英语第一次月考试题一、阅读理解 .1. 阅读理解HolidaysHoliday NewsVacancies now and in the school holidays at a country hotel in Devon. This comfortable, friendly home-from-home lies near the beautiful quiet countryside, but just a drive away from the sea. The food is simple but good. Children and pets are welcome. Reduced prices for low season.The Snowdonia CentreThe Snowdonia Centre for young mountain climbers has a mountain climbing lesson. The beginners’ costs are ￡57 for a week, including food and rooms. Equipment is included except walking shoes, which can be hired at a low cost.You must be in good health and prepared to go through a period of body exercises. This could be the beginning of a lifetime of mountain climbing adventure.The World Sea Trip of a LifetimeOur World Sea Trip of 2019 will be unlike any holiday you have ever been on before. Instead of one hotel after another, with all its packing andunpacking, waiting and traveling, you just go to bed in one country and wake up in another.On board the ship, you will be well taken care of. Every meal will be first-class and every cabin like your home.During the trip, you can rest on deck, enjoy yourself in the games rooms and in the evening dance to our musical team and watch our wonderful play.You will visit all the places most people only dream about —from Acapulco and Hawaii to Tokyo and Hong Kong.For a few thousand pounds, all you’ve ever hoped for can be yours.（1）What can you do if you like to go on holidays with pets?A . Choose the holiday in Devon.B . Go to the Snowdonia Centre.C . Join the World Sea Trip of 2008.D . Visit Acapulco and Hawaii.（2）In what way is the Snowdonia Centre different from the other two holidays?A . It provides chances of family gatherings.B . It provides customers with good food.C .

You have to do your own packing and unpacking.2. 阅读理解I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; In Japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t kno w.It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!（1）When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______.A . describe the place carefullyB . show him a map of the placeC . tell him the names of the streetsD . refer to recognizable buildings and places（2）What is the place where people measure distance in time?A . New York.B . Los Angeles.C . Kansas.D . Iowa.（3）People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ______.A . in order to save timeB . Los Angeles.C . so as to be politeD . for fun（4）What can we infer from the text?A . It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.B . It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.C . People have similar understandings of politeness.D . New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.3. 阅读理解More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It’s fun, healthy and good for the environment. Maybe that’s why there are 1.4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere, and there is no oil cost!If you get on a bicycle and ride it, you may discover something new all around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out of your cars. You can bike to work and benefit from the enjoyable exercise without polluti ng the environment. You don’t even have to ride all the way.Folding bikes work well for people who ride the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase. You can also take a common bike with you when you fly. But be sure to look for information by getting on airline websites. Not all airlines are bicycle friendly to travellers.Here are some of Health Benefits of Bicycling：Bicycling helps to prevent heart diseases.Bicycling helps to control your weight.A 15minute bike ride to and from work three times a week burns off five kilos of fat in a year.Bicycling can improve your mood.Exercise like bicycling has been shown to make people feel better, more relaxed and self-confident.Bicycling is healthier than driving.（1）Riding your bicycle around, you may ________.A . pollute the environment aroundB . find something you didn’t not iceC . go everywhere and use a little oilD . get off your bike and begin to work （2）If you travel with a folding bike, you can fold it and ________.A . put it at the stationB . go on airline websitesC . feel more self-confidentD . take it onto a train with you（3）Which of the following is one of the Health Benefits from bicycling?A . you can fold the bicycleB . you will be friendly to othersC . you will be more relaxedD . you may get fatter and fatter（4）Which is WRONG according to the passage?A . Riding bikes is healthier than driving cars.B . Bicycling is enjoyable exercise for people.C . Common bikes can be taken by all airlines.D . There are more bicycles than cars on roads worldwide today.4. 阅读理解Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you. Well, nihao. It i s such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university, so thank you so much for having me. I’m here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among young people like you across the world.That’s why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don’t just visit palaces and parliaments and meet with heads of countries. We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you, because we believe that relationships between countries aren’t just a bout relationships between governments or leaders—they’re about relationships between people, particularly young people. So we view study abroad programs not just as an educational chance for students, but also as an active part of America’s foreign policy.Through the wonders of modern technology, our world is more connected than ever before. Ideas can cross oceans with the click of a mouse. Companies can do business and compete with companies across the world. And we can text, email, Skype with people in the world.So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a time of learning; it is quickly becoming the key to success in our times. Because getting ahead in today’s workplaces isn’t just about getting good grades or test scores in school, which are i mportant. It’s also about having real experience with the world beyond your bordersexperience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own. Or, as the Chinese saying goes: “It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”（1）The speaker probably gave the talk to the audience ________.A . in a universityB . on the InternetC . in the Parliament HallD . in a tourist attraction（2）According to the passage, the world’s future depends on ________.A . texts and emailsB . traveling abroadC . getting good gradesD . connections among young people（3）In the speaker’s opinion, the key to success in our times is ________.A . studying abroadB . doing more exercisesC . going to a universityD . getting good test scores（4）Where may the passage come from?A . A story.B . A speech.C . A news report.D . A scientific magazine.二、任务型阅读5. 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。

山东省高二上学期月考英语试卷山东省高二上学期月考英语试卷一、阅读理解Zoos give people a chance to get close to animals from every continent in the world. But zoos that offer more than just a chance to see animals are worth visiting.

My childhood memories are full of the cats we’ve loved, from my dad’s cat, Bandit, to our beloved white cat Cecelia, whose gray fur formed a perfect heart shape across her stomach. But since our last cat friend, Sunny the orange cat, died too young, we’ve been cat-less. The sudden loss of Sunny was hard to move on from, especially for my mom.This year, Mom finally thought she was ready for a new kitten. It was all she wanted for her birthday on June 16. “Roxie and Cosita need a new friend!” she said. In the week leading up to her birthday, something happened. She started to hear a kitten’s meow (喵叫声) in the garage. Every time she went in and out of the garage, she could hear the soft cries but couldn’t tell the exact position of the sound. She asked my dad if he heard it too. He only shrugged (耸肩). At last, Mom’s birthday was arriving. She kept her fingers crossed, hoping for a kitten.Over the past week, my dad had heard the kitten’s meow every time he walked past my mom’s car. One day he opened the hood (车盖) of the car, and a yellow kitten stared back at him.How in the world did she get there? And where did she come from? Dad didn’t know, but he f ed the kitten every day, waiting for the day he’d give her to Mom.The little kitten was such a perfect birthday gift, and Dad even didn’t need to leave the house to find her for my mom’s happy birthday! When it came time to name our new furry friend, we took inspiration from a song famously performed by Wilson Pickett and called her “Sally”.1.What was difficult for Mom to forget?A. The young orange cat’s death.B. The moving of one of her friends.C. The sudden death of the cat Bandit.D. The heart shape across Cecelia’s stomach.2.What gift did Mom hope for?A. A new car.B. A little cat.C. A little dog.D. A new cassette.3.What can we learn about Sally?A. Dad hid her in Mom’s car.B. Sally was bought for Mom.C. Sally was named after a song.D. Mom received her ahead of the birthday.4.What would be the best title for the text?A. A new home for SallyB. My pet friends in memoryC. My mom’s happy birthdayD. An unexpected birthday giftMegan McDonald is the writer of the popular Judy Moody and Stink books. McDonald, the youngest of five girls, grew up in a suburb outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I talked with her for our magazine recently. Here are some questions I asked and her answers to them.Q: What was the inspiration for your characters Judy Moody and Stink?A: My original inspiration came from growing up with so many sisters.We grew up in a family of readers and storytellers. I had all these funny stories about my sisters that I wanted to tell. The first Judy Moody book probably has the most stories that came from my childhood. After that, Judy and Stink really took on a life of their own. Everyone knows a “Judy Moody” in his/her life.Q: Who are some of your favorite authors and what are some of your favorite books?A: Beverly Cleary with the Ramona books. Harriet The Spy by Louise Fitzhugh was also a really important book for me growing up. And now, I would say that one of my most favorite authors is Katherine Paterson. I love her book called The Great Gilly Hopkins. Gilly is so individual, strong-minded and willful. She’s not always perfect. Judy Moody was sort of inspired by that character.I love that book.Q: What advice do you have for kids who want to write books?A: It’s really simple. I think the best thing anybody — a kid or an adult — can do if he/she wants to write is to read. I feel really strongly about that because I think reading is not only what inspires us, but it’s a way that we learn languages, and it’s a way that we learn how stories work with beginnings, middles, and ends. For me, it all begins with reading.1.According to Megan McDonald, growing up with so many sisters .A. kept her from readingB. wasn’t a very good experienceC. helped her write books in later lifeD. made her different from other girls2.The underlined sentence means Judy and Stink .A. became popular with readersB. wanted to become independentC. were just ordinary people in our livesD. developed no longer based on McDonald’s childhood3.McDonald’s last answer mainly shows reading is .A. simpleB. importantC. privateD. basic4.Who talked with Megan McDonald in the text?A.

Now, the country’s first electric-powered motorbikes are coming onto the market. The bike is designed to cut down on pollution and aimed at low-income communities. Most motorbikes used in Kenya depend on gasoline, but not this new motorbike.Three university students developed the new ecotran bike. It catches the sun’s energy, stores it in batteries and uses it to charge (充电) the electric motor. Robert Achoge is one of the student inventors. “Our hope is that by the fifth year, we will be able to cover the whole of Kenya with the electric motorcycle so as to protect the environment and provide affordable transport.”The students have set up a charging station for the motorbikes in Nairobi. The small battery can run for 70 kilometers when fully charged. Once the power is used up, the motorbike has to return to the station while another charged battery is connected to the bike. The U.S. African Development Foundation (ADF) is helping set up two solar-powered chargingstations in the port of Kisumu.Each ecotran bike costs about $700. One taxi operator says the new motorbike costs less to operate than that running on traditional gasoline. “When it comes to buying gasoline, there’s no need. It’s basically good for various things. As long as you won’t take quite a heavy load (装载), you can go with it anywhere. Otherwise, it may break down halfway. But now people still have a preference to the gas-powered bikes.”A Nairobi businessman Kennedy Kusimba is selling the ecotran bikes. He hopes they will become popular. “We also know they are more reliable compared to the gas-powered bikes. They are more efficient (效率高的) and they will last longer.”1.What has happened to the vehicles in Kenya?A. Motorbikes are not allowed on the road.B. A new kind of motorbike is hitting the road.C. There are fewer buses and taxis in the street.D. Traditional motorbikes don’t need gasoline any more.2.What do we know about the ecotran bike?A. It was developed by the ADF.B. It can charge itself while running.C. Its energy comes from the sunlight.D. It does more harm to the environment.3.What do people think of the ecotran bike?A. It’s better not to use it to carry too much.B. It is a good choice for the long-distance journey.C. It will take the place of gas-powered bikes soon.D. It is much more expensive than a traditional motorbike.4.Where does the text probably come from?A. A research plan.B. An advertisement.C. A business report.D. A science magazine.二、七选五Reading books is one of the best hobbies. It not only helps you pass your time but also helps you increase your knowledge in a meaningful manner. 1.

It could be something as simple as not gettingthe job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makesyou is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.Once, a young school boywas caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would notlive. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire haddestroyed the lower half of his body.

But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, fromcloser to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technologyand reading, the report does little to counsel parents looking for dataabout the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out thatmany parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns aboutincreased screen time.The most hopeful datashared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples andimportant guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kidsand teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have morebooks in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often,and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of schoolapproaches, and school vacation reading lists loom ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make theirown summerreading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.（1）What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A .

Thanksgiving holiday issymbolized by its traditional food-roast turkey. But turkey is certainly notfrom Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We couldsay it is a case of mistaken identity. The word “Turkey” has meant”the land of the Turks” since ancient times. In the mid-1500s, theword “turkey” was first used to refer to the bird in the Englishlanguage.The misunderstanding over theword happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds.There is an African bird calledthe guinea fowl. It has dark feathers with white spots and a patchof brown on the back of its neck. Traders brought the guinea fowl to Europethrough North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands.So, the English thought the bird as a “Turkish chicken”.When Europeans came to NorthAmerica, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was nativeto the North American continent. But they thou ght that it was the guinea fowl,which at that time, was called the “turkey cock”, so they gave it thesame name.Hundreds of years later, wecontinue to call this North American bird “turkey”, even though ithas no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe.But English is not the onlylanguage with interesting names for this North American bird.The Turkish call turkey”hindi”, the Turkish name for India. The referenceto Indiaprobably conies from the old wrong idea that the New World was in Eastern Asia.The French call it”dinde”, a name that also connects the bird to India.”Dinde” means “from India” in the French language.”Turkey” has similar names in several other languages.（1）What can we know from paragraph 1?A . The word “turkey” appeared in modern times.B . Turkey’s English name is based on correct identity.C . Americans like eating turkey in Thanksgiving holiday.D . Both Turkey and turkey have similar meanings in English.（2）Where did the guinea fowl come from?A . Europe.B . Africa.C . America.D . Asia.（3）What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A . Eastern Asia.B . The French language.C . The New World.D . The bird turkey.（4）What can be the best title for the text?A . How did Thanksgiving “turkey” get its name?B . How did Americansspend their Thanksgiving holiday?C . Why was the guinea fowl so popular with Americans?D . Why was the guinea fowl different from American turkeys?4. 阅读理解Chrysanthemums areto the fall what tulips are to the spring.In ancient China chrysanthemums were first planted thousands of years ago.

Then they symbolized a scholar inretirement and were one of the four noble plantsalong with bamboo, the plum flower and orchid.The Japanese hold thechrysanthemum as a symbol of the sun.

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校高二上学期英语月考测试10月满分（150）第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)AI was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man.I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the serva nt to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would become famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would become a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the community and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your community and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and refrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor are kept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.Community and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your community.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostlybecause .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will become much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your community27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off.A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks when you say, “It sounds good, but how mu ch does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid becoming wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacksto .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions. DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women were more likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studied used his or her phone at least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their incoming messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and disagre e with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not havea habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones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。

It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯）,but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.（8分）DMany people think of the brain as a mystery（神秘）．They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works．When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb（愚笨的）—and stays that way for life．But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it．And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn．Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time．That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise．And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink（萎缩）and you get weaker．That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise．Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells（神经细胞）．Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems．When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger．The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow．Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy．The result is a stronger and smarter brain．Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains．They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things．32．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is．B．A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle．C．Both muscles and the brain are important to humans．D．Intelligence exists in both humans and animals．33．By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat ．A．exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB．exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC．everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD．everyone should learn as many new things as possible34．Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need ．A．to be well taken care of B．a good communication between personsC．help from scientists D．our learning new things35．What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Strong B．Lovely C．Smart D．Active三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）6.（10分）How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that.

They studied the information on the post sign and decided which busto take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They preparedto get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out ofthe way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about the foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about.The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told themabout the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first personwhoarrived at a bus-stop is the first person to get on the bus.Learning the language of a country isn’tenough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do wellto remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand forpassing food at table. The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, You might see a man apparently shaking his head atanother and assume (认为) that he is disagreeing. But in many partsof India a rotating (旋转) movement of the head is a gesture thate_press agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink inBulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to e_press 〝yes〞— a nod means 〝no〞.In Europe it is quite usual to cross yourlegs when sitting talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing thiswhen meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence (冒犯). It is considered too informal an attitude for suchan occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult —it’s just not done.Attitudes to women vary considerably aroundthe world. In Japan, for e_ample, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.Knowing about customs and attitudes isuseful when you are travelling, but you also need to know the language used toe_press different degrees of formality (礼节).41.The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed because__________________.(A) they didn’t knowthe English language(B) someone calledtheir names(C) they didn’t knowthe custom of lining up for a bus(D) they knockedsomeone down while getting on the bus42.According to the passage, which attitude to women is usual in Japan?(A) Men always go toparties with women.(B) Men plan eveningentertainments for their wives.(C) Men and womenhave equal rights to go to parties.(D) Men plan eveningentertainments for themselves, while their wives stay home.43. What’sthe meaning of the underlined word 〝insulting〞 in Para. 1 ?(A) 善意的 (B)咨询的(C)商量的(D)无礼的44.From the passage, we know that shaking head means Yes in ______________.(A) India and Thailand (B) India andBulgaria(C) Bulgaria and Thailand (D) Thailand and Japan45. The underlined sentence 〝Nodding yourhead when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty.〞means______________________________.(A) It’sprobably that you are thirsty if you nod your head(B) You’re possibly eager to have a drinkif you nod your head(C) You probably refuse to drink when younod your head(D) You’d like tohave a cup of tea because you nod your headBIn spite of television and other means topass information, newspaper is still an important source. No country in theworld has more daily newspapers than the USA. There are over 2,000 of them. Thequality of some American papers is very high and their views are quoted allover the world. Well-known dailies like Washington Post or New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. Many people begin their day by reading the paper. In this way they learn what is going onin theworld. Sometimes, however, they don’t have time to read the news carefully andmust be satisfied with a quick look at the front page, at other times, they maybe in such a hurry that they have time only for a glance at the headlines.American newspapers try to entertain aswell as give information. There are newspapers to satisfy all sorts of readers.Some newspapers are sensational, which feature crime, se_ and gossip; some are serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events.In bid cities there are many types of papers, with several different editionsevery day. In the small towns there are fewer newspapers and perhaps only oneedition each day. In some areas the paper is even printed weekly.Most newspapers have several sections,especially on Sundays when the section is larger than usual. There are, inaddition to the front page with the most important news, the sports section andbusiness page. Many of these newspapers print columns by well-known journalistsof differing political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.Another type of publications which helpskeep the population informed is magazines. Some magazines are published weekly,others are put on monthly. There are news magazines, and magazines for specialinterests as sports, photography and music.

Frankly speaking, I was once certain that traditional letters couldnever be replaced by other means of communication.But a story about online communication changed mymind.An old man, who suffered a lot from Parkinson’sdisease, was not able to talk clearly and could hardly write his name. Livingtotally alone, he managed to keep in touch with nearly all the members of hisfamily. How did he achieve this? He clicked out words on his computer keyboard.I, therefore, managed to get an E-mail bo_ as soon asthe chance came. My life changed.E-mail, and all online communication, is somethingtruly different. It has capabilities (能力) thatfew other products can match.E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fastspeed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldn’t want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talkwith him through E-mail even if you are in the same office.Naming all the good things about online communicationis not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return tofind your E-mail bo_ filled with 200 unread messages. You could easily spend half a day clearing junk ads.Then, online communication will keep us staying at ourcomputer while it connects us to distant strangers. Once we throw ourselves into the machine, we may forget the human touches we once held so dear. I’msure there is and always will be a place for the old-fashioned letter, phone call, and face-to-face meeting…even in the world of modern communication.As I listen to the sound of the modem (调制解调器), I was e_cited at stepping out to the outside worldbut, at the same time, I sensed a loss of control over something valuable in mypersonal life.51. What is the most probable meaning of theunderlined word 〝junk〞?(A) Old and useless.(B)New and useful.(C) Short but valuable.(D) Long but clear.52. What caused the writer to become interestedin E-mail and online communication?(A) The sound of the modem.(B) His own illness.(C) The changing of his life.(D) A sick old man’s e_perience.53. What does the writer think of onlinecommunication?(A) It should replace old-fashionedletters completely.(B) It is perfect and always does good toyou.(C) It is e_tremely useful andconvenient, but it may be inconvenient or even harmful.(D) It does more harm than good.54. According to the writer, traditional meansof communication will never disappear because ____________________.(A) they are convenient and popularthough they are slow(B) they help to keep the friendlyrelationship between people(C) most people cannot keep up with thedevelopment of technology(D) modern means of communication doestoo much harm55. How did the sick old man keep in touchwith his family members?(A) With the help of his computer. (B) By writing letters with his pen.(C) By making telephone calls.(D) By visiting them regularly.DIn this century the traditional American family is constantlyfaced with the threat of breakdown. Some sociologists suggest that one little –noticed cause may be the introduction of the TV dinner.Before theappearance of television seats, the American dinner was a big event for thefamily. In many homes dinner time may be the only time when everyone got together. A typical dinner was usually in three stages. In the preparation stage, the children and Father frequently helped with setting while Mother putthe last touches on the roast. In the eating stage, family members shared theday’s e_periences and more than food was consumed. In this stage families gotto know one another and made joint decisions around the dinner table, and thusthe family solidarity was strengthened. In the cleaning – up stage, children orFather again gave their hands, so that their significance to the home communitywas clear. Unfortunately, all of these have been erased by a product—the television set.By the beginningof the 1980s, the typical American family dinner was just twenty minutes long.The speed –up of this once –leisurely e_periences is clearly connected to theoverall pace of modern life and maybe a model of the modern life is the TVdinners—mealsdesigned to be consumed between the opening and closing credits of a half –hour program. The once family affair has now become nothing more than the useof a fork and knife.56.According to the passage, the American family is now threatened by .A. povertyB. having few childrenC. poor livingconditions D. separation57.In the past, Americans tended to .A. spend moretime eating their food at dinner tableB. eat more foodthan they have todayC. spend moretime talking about their day’s e_perience at dinner tableD. talk so muchthat they forgot to eat58. The shortening of the dinner time in America isrelated to .A. the TV programsB. the pace of modern lifeC. the wide use of household appliancesD. thepopularity of fast food59. According to the passage, TV dinners are______.A. meals consumed while one is watching TVB. mealsone learns to cook on TVC. meals ordered on TVD. meals consumed before TV60.The best title for this passage might be .A.

But there are two tests that aremore important than all the others.The first is called the 〝tank test〞. A modern airplanemust fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that thepassengers can breathe. The metal structure of the plane has to be very strongfor this reason. When the plane is filled with air. The air presses against theskin of the plane. The pressure on a small window is like a huge foot that istrying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane woulde_plode in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, it is lowered into ahuge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. Then the pressureinside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air.Finally, there is an e_plosion. This does not cause so much damage inside thewater tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of theplane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.The most dangerous test happens when the new plane isgoing through test flights in the air. The test pilot must fine out e_actly what happens when the engines are all shut off at once. The plane begins tofall like a stone. It is the pilot’s job to find out how he can get control ofthe plane again.These two tests are e_amples of how planes are madesafe before they ever carry passengers.56. By doing the 〝tank test〞, the engineerscan find out ______.A. the amount of air in the planeB. the strengthof the plane structureC. the pressure inside and outside the planeD. the power of the airplane engines57. What will happen to the plane under the〝tank test〞?A. It will be broken.B. It will be made stronger.C. It will be filled with water.D. It will be tested by pilots.58. According to the test, why are testflights most dangerous?A. The plane may e_plode in the air.B. The pilot may lose control of the plane.C. The engines may be damaged.D. Too much airmay get into the plane.59. What might be the most suitable titlefor the te_t?A. Two important tests on airplanes.B. The importance of flying safely.C. The danger of testing airplanes.D. How airplanes aremade and tested.BIf you go into the forest with friends, stay withthem. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you get lost, this is what you shoulddo. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends—let themfind you. You can help them find you by staying in one place. There is anotherway to help your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistlethree times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help.Keepup shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you,they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun. They will let youknow that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or twowhistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help.If you don’t thinkthat you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house with branches. Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass.Whenyou need some water, you have to leave your little branch house to look for it.Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk inorder to go back again easily. When you are lost, the most important thing to do is to stay in one place.60. Which signal is a call for help?A. shouting here and thereB. whistling every where in the forestC. shouting or whistling three times togetherD. crying twice61. When you hear two shouts or twowhistles, you know that ________.A. someone is afraid of an animalB. people will come to helpyouC. someone needs helpD. something terrible will happen62.

The main idea of the passage is_________.A. how to travel in the forestB. how to spend the night in the forestC. what you should do if you want to get some waterD. what you should do if you are lost in the forest.CI’m beginning to think whether my grandmother wasright when she complains, as she frequently does, that children nowadays aren’tas well-behaviored as they used to be. She recounts in detail how she used tobe told to respect her elders and betters(上司). She wastaught to speak when she was spoken to and when she went out on her own, shewas reminded to say ;please; and ;thank you;. Children inher days, she continues, were e_pected to be seen and not heard, but these daysyou are lucky if you ever hear parents telling their children to mind her manners.If you give her the chance she then takes out of herwriting desk the old photograph album which she keeps there, and which she never tires of displaying. Of course when you look at pictures of her parentsyou feel sure that, with a father as strict looking as that, you too would havebeen ;seen and not heard;. Beside him sits his wife, with their children around her; Granny and her elder brothers. It always occurs to me thatperhaps those long, stiff, black clothes were so heavy to a little girl thatshe hadn’t enough breath left to be talkative, let alone naughty. It must havebeen a dull and lonely life too, for she stayed mainly at home during her childhood, while her brothers were sent to school from an early age.However, my childhood was much freer than Granny’s. Iwent to school with my brother. I played football with him and his friends. Weall spoke a common language, and we got up to the same mischief(恶作剧).I would have died if I had had to stay indoors,wearing tight, stiff clothes.64. The writer thinks that her grandmother________.A. makes mistakes about the youthB. complains too much about her childhoodC. received good education at schoolD. led an unhappy life when she was a child65. When Granny was young, children weree_pected ________.A. to speak to the elders loudlyB. to hear and not toseeC. to be present quietlyD. to stay still and study66. This passage is mainly about ________.A. Granny’s life story in the pastB. Granny’s complaintsabout the childrenC. women’s life in different timesD. children in the past andat presentDMr. Johnson had never been up in anairplane before and he had read a lot about air accidents, so one day when afriend offered to take him for a ride in his own small plane, Mr. Johnson wasvery worried about accepting．Finally, however, his friend persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr. Johnson got on the plane．His friend started the engine and began tota_i(滑行)onto the runway of the airport．Mr. Johnson was very frightened and closed his eyes．After a minute or two he opened them again, looked outof the window of the plane, and said to his friend, 〝Look at those people downthere．They look as small as ants, don’t they?〞〝Those are ants,〞 answered his friend．〝We’re still on the ground．〞67．The best title for this passage is ____．A．FirstFlight B．FirstAccident C．FirstE_perience D．First Trip68．When his friend suggested an airplane trip to Mr. Johnson, he ____．A．acceptedgladlyB．accepted unwillinglyC．refusedthe offer D．showed his surprise69．When Mr. Johnson opened his eyes, the plane ____．A．was flyingin the airB．was out of orderC．was stillta_ing along the runway D．took off70．Mr. Johnson thought he was ____ when he saw the ants．A．flyinghighB．falling out of the planeC．on thegroundD．dreaming71．Mr. Johnson seems to be a ____ man．A．brave andwiseB．polite and humourousC．carefuland kind D．shy and easily frightenedEHave you ever seen any students whose trousers hang solow that you can see their underwear (内裤)? Whatdo you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today’s teenagers are big fans ofsuch a look. But recently this trend has been at the centre of an argument inItalian middle schools.The headmaster of a school in central Italy has askedstudents to stop wearing low-rise jeans (低腰牛仔裤) thate_pose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip, when he saw one boy’s baggy trousers slide (滑) to hisfeet. He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion veryseriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students.The issue is whether the head teacher’s request will limit students’freedom —or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual (随意的).A parents’ group praised the move in favour of goodtaste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fi_ upold school buildings.;We do not want to kick fashion out,; theheadmaster e_plained. ;But e_tremes (极端) offashion like this are not right in school.; Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.Most students have simply ignored (忽略) the request. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore e_tremely lowtrousers e_posing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf (围巾).Another 14-year-old said she should probably respectthe request, simply for practical reasons. ;I don’t really feel comfortable in those sort of jeans;, said Sarah Lattanzi. ;In winter, when dressed like that, it’s quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.;72. What led to the argument in Italianmiddle schools?A. Students’ craze for fashions.B. Clothes that are too e_posing.C. Students ignoring dress codes (着装规则).D. Students’ underwear.73. Which of the following supports theheadmaster’s request?A. Fashion should be taken seriously.B. Fashion should not be followed in school.C.

First of all,don’t be disappointed. Many students findit difficult to write well. In my opinion,if youwant to improve your writing,you can do several things. First,do some study with set phrases and sentencestructures. Keep a list of them and then try to make some sentences with them.Second,read as much as possible. There are manythings that can’t be learnt. You must see them in books many times, then you’ll be able to use them correctly yourself.So,in order to write well,you must learn to read much. Finally,you’d better recite some good passages.Good luck to you in yourwriting!Helpful。
