南阳一中2017年春期高二开学考试英语试题温馨提示:本试题满分120分=阅读50+完形30+单词填空15+作文25第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)第一节阅读理解(共20小题,满分40分)AAs a boy, Tim was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result, Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic of a local doctor where he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the conversations taking place between the doctor and his patients in the next room.During the war Tim served in the Navy as a surgeon(外科医生). “Tha t was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with very real suffering and on the whole making a success of it.” In California he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skills to himself and his ability to make decisions. Thus, while he was able to tell them what to do, he could feel he was serving them. After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside, working under an old doctor who was popular in the area, but who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the young man many opportunities to go on working as a life-saver.1. Tim decided to become a doctor at fifteen mainly because___ .A. he had chances to know the old doctors through his fatherB. he had read many books about medicineC. his father was a surgeon himselfD. his father wanted him to be so2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Tim got married to the old doctor’s daughter.B. Before the war, Tim worked as a doctor at a local clinic.C. Tim continued working as a surgeon after the war.D. While working in California, Tim taught life-saving to the patients.3. From the passage we can infer that Tim ______ .A. was sent to Europe during the warB. was not afraid of seeing bloodC. worked as a surgeon during the warD.decided to give up medicine for faith4. The passage is mainly about _____.A. Tim’s life storyB. Tim’s dreamsC. Tim’s marr iageD. Tim’ s patientsBWE NEED1.

KEEP IN TOUCH WITH TEEN INKCPeople are being tricked into Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service withoutrealizing they’re paying for it by giving up loads of pe rsonal information.Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. That was the great thing about Facebook. You could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things: your city, your photo, your friends’ names, were set, by default (默认)to be shared with everyone on the Internet.According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information. They have a “less satisfying experience."Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. It’s original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the pages, totally failed. Who wants to took at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April,Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social networking sites. “I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it's only the beginning,which is why I'm considering cancelling my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I'm upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don't know. That’s too high a price to pay.9.What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?A. It is a website that sends messages to users who want to get married.B. It earns money by putting on advertisements.C. It makes money by selling its users’ personal data.D. It provides loads of information to its users.10.What does the author say about most Facebook users?A. They are unwilling to give up their personal information.B. They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.C. They don’t identify themselves when using the website.D. They care very little about their personal information.11.Why does Facebook make changes to its rules according to Elliot Schrage?A. To provide better service to its users.B. To obey the Federal guidelines.C. To improve its users’ connection.D. To expand its business.12.Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?A. He is dissatisfied with its present service.B. He finds many of its users untrustworthy.C. He doesn’t want his personal data badly usedD. He is upset by its frequent rule changes.DBlue whales are the largest animals ever known to have existed on the planet, and they can grow to a length of 100 feet and weigh more than 330,000 pounds. But recently researchers have found that these whales are on the move and they have migrated (moved) from California waters to areas off Canada and Alaska for the first time since commercial whaling ended in 1965.The researchers identified 15 blue whales that have appeared off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska since 1997. Four of these whales were recognized as ones that were once sighted off California shores, suggesting that the whales are returning to an old migration pattern between the coasts.Before commercial whaling began in the early 1900s, blue whales were found widely throughout the North Pacific and California waters. But from the 1920s to the 1960s, whaling severely reduced the whale populations. Blue whales never recovered in the Northern Pacific, making sightings in this area rare. However, much larger groups of whales have been observed close to California since the 1970s.The scientists had previously thought that the California population was separate from the population that had historically lived in North Pacific waters. But the current study shows that whales off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska are likely part of the California populationTo identify the blue whales, the researchers looked at photos of cetaceans taken in the North Pacific Ocean and compared them with a library of blue whale pictures taken along the West Coast of the United States and Southern Pacific. Up to now, the researchers are not quite sure why the whales are changing their migration patterns, but they suspect that the whales may be following their food moving farther north by the changes in ocean conditions.13. According to the passage, blue whales are __________.A. following the fixed route of migrationB. dying out due to commercial whalingC. rarely found in the Southern PacificD. moving from the south to the north14. The whale population in the northern Pacific __________.A. is different from the California populationB. has become the largest group since the 1970sC. is probably part of the California populationD. has lived there since the 1960s15. The underlined word “cetaceans” in Paragraph 5 probably means __________.A. whales speciesB. land creaturesC. ocean conditionsD. migration patterns16. What might make blue whales migrate according to the researchers?A. Commercial whaling.B. Food resources.C. Weather conditions.D. Life reproduction.EA new study published in the Journal of Marriage and Family claims that all the time you spend parenting just doesn’t matter. But it’s a claim that, despite the enthusiastic and widespread coverage by the media, does not hold water.The research suggests that child outcomes (including behavior problems, emotional problems, and academic performance) are barely (几乎没有) connected with the time that parents spend with their children. The researchers examined the time diaries of 1,600 children, looking at parenting time and outcomes when the kids were aged 3 to 11 in 1997, and again in 2002, when they were between 8 and 16. (A time diary is a detailed report of all activities you carry out in a day.)This research largely reflects the failure of the authors to correctly measure parental input (投入). It just looked at time diaries from two particular days — one a weekday and the other a weekend day.Trying to get a sense of the time you spend parenting from a single day’s diary is a bit like trying to measure your income from a single day. If yesterday was payday, you looked rich, but if it’s not, you would be reported as poor. You get a clearer picture only by looking at your income — or your parenting time — over a more meaningful period.What you did yesterday should not be taken as representative of what you did last year. This is why most high-quality studies of parenting time focus instead on how often parents read to their children, play with them or help them with homework over a period of month or longer — long enough to represent their different approaches to parenting.As an exhausted parent who doesn’t get enough time to work out, and who hasn’t seen a movie for months, I understand why so many of us might seize on studies suggesting that we should take more time for ourselves. Perhaps we should. But I agree with Ariel Kalil, a development psychologist, on the suggestion “that when parents spend high-quality time with their children, their children are more likely to succeed.”17. The underlined words “hold water” in the first pa ragraph probably mean ________.A. to be surprisingB. to be reasonableC. to be confusingD. to be usual18. The study was conducted to explore the link between _______.A. parenting time and child outcomesB. time diaries and child developmentC. children’s habits and parents’ influenceD. daily activities and children’s problems19. How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed?A. By giving descriptionsB. By analyzing the causeC. By making a comparisonD. By offering research findings20. The author may agree that high-quality studies of parenting time should _______.A. be completed in one monthB. be based on data of a longer time periodC. concentrate mainly on learning timeD. adopt some different approaches第二节七选五(共5小题,满分10分)So far, educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient(有效的) and reliable than examinations. Some people say examinations test what you know. 21 . They may be a good means of testing memory, or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability and talent.22 .Then what is a good education? 23 . The examination system does anything but that. The student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge. Meanwhile, they lower the standards of teaching. 24 .Teachers themselves are often judged by examination results and instead of teaching their subjects, they only train their students in exam techniques.Are there any simpler and more effective ways of assessing a person’s true abilities?25 . Educationists, of course, should take the responsibility to face the challenge and come up with wise solutions.A. The answer is absolutely yes.B. In a word, it’s not a good education.C. Your whole future may be decided on one fateful day.D. Because they deprive(剥夺) the teacher of all freedoms.E. However, it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite.F. A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself.G. Examiners are only human: they get tired and hungry; they make mistakes.第二部分完形填空(满分30分)When you eat out in a restaurant, it is not unusual to hear people yelling, “Let me get this one!” Sometimes you can see them26 or arm wrestli ng to fight for the 27 for paying the bill. These fights are often very loud and active. Each person 28 shows an honest desire to pick up the bill, and in the end, all the people at the table give the winner praise and 29 .In fact, figuring out who will get the bill is always a 30 for Chinese people at formal meals.

AI was reading these interesting stories behind a group of great logos in the world. Personally Nike is my favorite one—it’s so simple. And I like the stories behind them, which made me forget all other things. McDonald’s, Apple, Mercedes Benz and Adidas own great logos as well, and they are among my favorites.NikeIn the Greek myth, Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers. This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess. Nike’s logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $35, and was registered as a trademark in 1995.McDonald’sThe logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the arch-shaped(拱形的) signs on the side of the company’s then walk-up hamburger stand. Later on, the two golden arches were combined together to form the M. The McDonald’s name was added to the logo in 1968.AppleThere are different stories behind Apple’s logo. The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve, in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. One year later, the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne, and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. This logo didn’t stay long. One year later it was replaced almost immediately by graphic designer Rob Ja noff’s “rainbow apple〞, a rainbow-colored silhouette(轮廓) of an apple with a bite taken out of it. And then the rainbow-colored apple was replaced by the one-colored logo in 1998. It has not been changed so far.Mercedes BenzThe Mercedes Benz logo, which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909, consists of a simple description of a three-pointed star that represents its rule of the land, the sea and the air. The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach. Mercedes is the name of Maybach’s elder daughter, while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz, Cie and DMG in 1926.AdidasThe Adidas logo, which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler, represents mountains, pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved. The logo was used for the first time in 1967.1. What does the author think of the stories of the great logos?A. They are boring.B. They are out of date.C. They are attractive.D. They are practical.2. We can learn that Apple’s present logo is .A. the religious story of Adam and Eve.B. a bitten apple with only one color.C. Newton’s sitting under an apple tree.D. the rainbow-colored bitten apple.3. Which of the following time orders describes the births of the great logos?A. Mercedes Benz - McDonald’s - Nike - Apple.B. Nike - McDonald’s- Apple- Mercedes Benz.C. McDonald’s– Apple- Nike- Mercedes Benz.D. Nike- Mercedes Benz - McDonald’s- Apple.BPoet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.For years we made the long drive from our home in Seat tle to my parents’ home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement and have strong opinions about everything.Road trips felt risky, so I would drive fast, stopping only when I had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.But then Banner, our lamb was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take himwith me. My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They’dget back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life and new horizons.We eventually arrived at my parents' doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of journey—and the best part of yourself.4.Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents' home?A.It was less tiring. B.It would befaster and safer.C.Her kids would feel less confined. D.She felt better with other drivers nearby. 5.The author stopped regularly on the country roads to ________.A.take care of the lamb B.take a deep breathC.relax in the fresh air D.let the kids play with Banner6.What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6? A.Freeways are where beauty hides.B.Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life.C.Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one's health.D.One should follow side roads to watch wild animals.7.What could be the best title for the passage?A.The Road to Bravery B.Creativity out of NecessityC.Charm of the Detour D.Road Trip and Country LifeCWhatever happened to the familiar scene from the past of children playing “tag(捉人游戏)〞 in the streets while their parents chatted with the neighbors over the garden fence? This picture is fading fast today, as children are now leaving the streets in favor of a screen.Several organizations are attempting to change this situation. One of these organizations is Play England, which aims to improve opportunities for children to play outside. A leading figure in the campaign is 50-year-old Adrian Voce, who has childhood memories of days spent in the “Big Woods〞 near his house with his older brothers. “We were given a packed lunch and told not to talk to strangers. I can still remember wandering in and out of each others’ houses.〞 he says.However, it is not only the children that Mr. Voce and his organization have to convince. In many cases the parents themselves block his efforts. A survey in2021 found that 85 percent of adults agreed that it was important for children to be able to play safely in the road or street where they live. However, many of them were not prepared to park their cars an extra 50 meters away from their homes.Mr. Voce’s attempts to enc ourage children to play outside include the organization of campaigns like National Playday. Hundreds of communities all over the country take part in this effort, yet it can take a lot of people to give children a taste of what it is like to play in the streets. On one street in Aldershot last year there were five policemen, three community support officers, a traffic management crew, a closed-circuit television van, and a team of "play workers.〞Society today has changed to such an extent that children do not feel safe on the streets and their parents no longer feel comfortable about letting them play there. It is not only the appeal of computers and video games that has driven children inside, but also the presence of traffic, crime, and violent young people. However, thanks to the efforts of people like Adrian Voce, it may not be too late to turn back the clock.8. What kind of feeling does Adrian Voce show when he looks back on his childhood?A. RegretB. ShameC. DelightD. Surprise9. Why does the author say the parents themselves block Mr. Voce’s efforts?A. They don’t want their children to be outside.B. They are worried about the safety of the streets.C. They are not optimistic about Mr. Voce’s campaign.D. They won’t make the street safer for their children to play in.10. What can we learn about National Playday?A. It has rapidly spread to other countries.B. A lot of people are needed to make it work.C. It has not lived up to the organizers’ expectations.D. It aims to call on parents to play with their children.11. What is the author’s attitude towards children playing in the streets?A. Worried.B. Hopeful.C. UnclearD. Shocked.DA company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into women's shoes.Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy's, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company's co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women's feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe's outer part, called the sole. This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothy's shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is noshortage of material to fill that demand. “We're not going to run out of waterbottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think thatis a good sign for our future.〞 When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out,customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materialto make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However,the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.12. How are used plastic bottles usually dealt with?A. They are used to make shoes.B. They are buried orburned.C. They are changed into soft materials.D. They are returned tofactories for reuse.13. Wh at does the underlined word “knitted〞 in the third paragraph mean?A. Combined.B. Fixed.C. Spotted.D. Repaired.14. Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy's shoes?A. The design andcolor. B. Thereasonable price.C. The company's advertisement.D. The starpower of Gwyneth Paltrow.15. What is the purpose of the text?A. To advertise a new kind of shoes.B. To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.C. To describe the process of making shoes.D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.第二节〔一共5小题;每一小题2分,满分是10 分〕根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

The passage is most probably from a ______.A. newspaper advertisementB. book reviewC. scientific magazineD. news reportBCancer is feared by everyone. And there is more and more fear about cancer. Not the disease itself — there is no such thing as a high incidence rates of cancer. Except for lung cancer, mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.〞 This is not at all the meaning.The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world — for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America. These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personal life-style, which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities — that is all the data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same everywhere.5. According to the passage, the incidence of cancer is generally believed _____.A. to be based on inactive life styleB. to be due to anxietyC. to result from environmental influencesD. to be caused by heavy smoking6. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about therelationship between cancer and environment is _____.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD.approving7. According to the passage, the writer seems to feel that _____.A. the risk of catching cancer is on the riseB. the whole earth is coming to seem like a huge carcinogenC. the risk of catching cancer isn’t so great as people thinkD. cancer can be cured if the environment is cleaned up8. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cancer and EnvironmentB. The Fear Caused by CancersC. Data on Cancer IncidenceD. Cancer and its InvestigationCHigh-quality customer service is preached〔宣扬〕by many, but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints. “Storytelling hurts r etailersand entertains consumers,〞said Paula Courtney, President of the Verde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.〞The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered〔塞满了的〕shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, sales people should be skillful and polite with angry customers.“Retailers who’re enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who aren’t so friendly.〞said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance would help.〞Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.9. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shopper s won’t complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them.C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints.D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store managers.10. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph2?A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores.D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.11. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?A. Manners of the salespeople.B. Hiring of efficient employees.C. Huge supply of goods for sale.D. Design of the store display.12. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to ______.A. put pressure on stores to improve their serviceB. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly wayC. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directlyD. shop around and make comparisons between storesDYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesn’t feel good. Why doesn’t ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold〞threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not of ours.〞 After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materials had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned co nsumers to buy things they didn’t really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government onl y as “a necessary bad.〞It’s often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else is standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich — overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most people’s in comes are increasing. From 1995 to 2021, people feel “squeezed〞 because their rising incomes often don’t satisfy their rising wants —for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemployment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear they’ve become “the disposable American,〞 as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.Should we be surprised? Not really. We’ve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.13. The Wealthy Society is a book ________.A. about poverty in the pastB. written by Louis UchitelleC. indicating that people are becoming worse offD. about why happiness does not rise with wealth14. According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because ________.A. materialism has run wild in modern societyB. they are in fear of another Great DepressionC. public spending hasn’t been cut down as expectedD. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly15. What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposa ble American〞 ?A. People with a stable job.B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.D. People who have a sense of security because of their rising incomes.第二节〔一共5小题;每一小题2分,满分是10分〕根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,选项里面有两项为多余项。

数学及其三次危机
☺数学简介 ☺数的由来与发展 ☺数学的三次危机
数学简介
1、数学是什么
数学是研究现实世界中的数量关系与空 间形式的一门学科。
(1)数学是数和形的学问。
数学是一棵参天大树。它的根深深地扎在 我们的现实世界中。
它有两个主干,一曰形—几何,一曰数— 代数。
几何:空间形式的科学,视觉思维占主导, 培养直觉能力,培养洞察力;
中国古藉《易.系辞》中说: 「上古结绳而治,后世圣人易之以书契。」 这些都是匹配计数法的反映。
(2)整数 正整数,零与负整数构成整数系。
•零不仅表示「无」,更是表示空位的符号。 •中国古代用算筹计算数并进行运算时,空位不放算筹, 虽无空位记号,但仍能为位值记数与四则运算创造良好的条件。 •印度-阿拉伯命数法中的零(zero)来自印度的(sunya ) 字,其原意也是「空」或「空白」。
•中国最早引进了负数。 •《九章算术.方程》中论述的「正负数」,就是整数的加减法。 减法的需要也促进 了负整数的引入。 减法运算可看作求解方程a+x=b,如果a,b是自然数, 则所给方程未必有自然数解。 为了使它恒有解,就有必要把自然数系扩大为整数系。
(3)有理数
古埃及人约于公元前17世纪已使用分数。 中国《九章算术》中也载有分数的各种运算。
分数的使用导源于除法运算的需要。 除法运算可看作求解方程px=q(p≠0 ),如果p, q是整数,则所给方程未必有整数解。 为了使它恒有解,就有必要把整数系扩大成为有 理数系。

高二英语试卷第一部分听力,略(共两节,每小题 1.5 分,满分30 分)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)AIf you’ re a student, developing the following skills will help you achieve success in school and in life.Time management. High-school students have an average of 35 hours per week of class time and college students have an average of 15 to 18 hours per week. Manage your free time wisely and you'll make full use of each day.Good study habits. If you’ve got them, it’s great. If not, there's still time to develop them. Good study habits include the following:●A lways be prepared for class, and attend classes regularly.●F inish homework in a timely manner.●R eview your notes daily rather than study for tests the night before.●S et aside quiet time each day for study, even if you don't have homework or a test the next day!Good note-taking. You can't possibly set down everything the teacher says since we talk at a pace of about 225 words per minute. But, you do need to set down the important materials. Note-taking should be in a way that's the most helpful to you. You can try writing notes on different colored cards. If you really have a problem with note-taking, you might ask your teacher if you can record daily lessons.Do whatever it takes.Review of daily notes. Don't wait until the night before the test to review your notes. Go over your notes each day while the lecture is still fresh in your mind. Add any missing pieces. Compare your notes with a classmate's notes. Review your notes each day to improve your learning and build towards your final goal: mastery of the subject or skill.21.If you want to form good study habits, you should .A. get them as early as you canB. go over your notes every dayC. study for tests the night beforeD. set down all the teacher says22.What is the main advantage of reviewing daily notes?A.To help write down the important materials.B.To add any missing pieces to your notesC.To solve the problem with note-taking timelyD.To help you to master the subject greatly.23.What's the best title for the passage?A.Wise Time Use and ManagementB.The Importance of Good Study Habits.C.Tips for Students to Achieve Success.D.Good Note-taking and Review of Daily Notes.BHere are two interesting questions. Are you very happy with your life now ? Are people happier as they get older?A study found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age 50. In fact, it found that by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were at 18.The finding came from a Gallup survey of more than 340,000 adults between the age of 18 and 85 in the United States.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. But the people least likely to report feeling negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties. The survey also found that men and women had similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.The original goal of the study was to confirm the popular belief that aging is connected with increased sleep problems. The survey did find an increase during middle age, especially in women.

It was a really cold night in dead silence and I was all alone at home. My parents left because they had been running fever for several days and they were showing other symptoms of COVID-19. It was the 9th day of Wuhan lockdown starting on January 23.The virus we now know as COVID-19 is somehow fearsome partly because it does not discriminate( 区别对待) in choosing who it infects. But that is only partly true. All the evidence suggest that it can be merciless to older people, so I was wondering whether my parents would make it and whether we would ever take family photos, which my parents and I had talked about during the Spring Festival holiday.On their second day away my parents called and asked me how I was. We talked using FaceTime, and the moment I saw mom lying there with an oxygen mask and my dad could not talk without breathing heavily, I realized that I had to live on my own.But two weeks later, I came across a fever and had to go into quarantine( 隔离) and be put under medical observations for 14 days. Fortunately, my illness turned out to be due to a bacterial infections but not COVID-19.Everything there was hectic, there seemed to be a shortage of medical staff and materials were in short supply. Even though the doctors and nurses were covered from head to toe, I could see how tired they were when I looked into their bloodshot eyes.They would work a whole day preparing for new patients and seemed incredibly apologetic for not having everything that was needed. Most of the patients were really understanding, but of course there were those who were not, and complained loudly, but all the doctors and nurses tried their best to deal with it in a calming way. And they are all from other cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou, and some of them are just three or four years older than me.When the quarantine was over, every patient effusively thanked the workers for what they had done, but the answer they received was exactly the same:“That’s what we’re here for.”28.When did the author’s parents leave her for the hospital?A. January 23B. January 30C. January 31D. February 129.What does the underlined phrase “make it” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. succeedB. join inC. arriveD. survive30.What can we learn according to the passage?A.Both the author and her parents got infected with COVID-19.B.The majority of the patients understood the doctors and nurses.C.The patients apologized to the doctors and nurses because they were too tired.D.The author didn’t get infected with COVID-19 because the virus can only infect the older.31.What may the author think of the medical workers according to the passage?A. admirableB. outgoingC. impatientD. thankfulDChina dropped its decades-long, one-child policy several years ago to allow each family to have two children. This change has put 270 million married women of childbearing age in the position of choosing between family and work.The employers also face big challenges as more female workers will have two maternity leaves(产假)for a total of seven to eight months.In a survey published by classified advertising website ,career women who might be considering having a second child were asked what kinds of pressure they might expect. More than 76 percent of the women who were questioned mentioned concerns about the financial burden of raising two children, while more than 71 percent said it would be difficult to balance career and family. In addition, nearly 56 percent said that having a second child would definitely have a negative effect on their career.Another survey conducted by Chongging-based human resources website job. cg. qq. com found that over 70 percent of job seekers believe that having a second child would make females less popular in the job market, although two-thirds of the employers said the policy will make no difference in their employment of staff.Feng Lijuan, a senior expert on human resources at 51 job. com, a leading Chinese job finding platform, said she would not say “there is prejudice against career women.”. Feng said Chinese women shoulder more family responsibility. “ It is not only about maternity leave; a female employee might only fully get back to work after three to five years after having her first child.”Wang Yixin, a senior employment adviser, said the positive side is that more companies are trying to attract more talents by providing support to career women. “Different from before, it is not only employers choosing employees. Many talents, including professional career women, also chose employers.” said Wang. “According to our survey, many large companies are very open to their employees' choice of having a second child.”32.According to the second survey, having a second child would .A.have no effect on career womenB.have a negative effect on career womenC.have a positive effect on career womenD.have both positive and negative effects on career women33.According the first survey,what are women concerned about when having two children?①Financial burden of raising two children②Fewer opportunities to get a pay rise③Negative effects on their career④Difficulty in balancing career and familyA. ①②③B. ②③④C. ①③④D. ①②④34.Women employees take longer time to concentrate on work after childbirth becauseA.there is more prejudice against career womenB.they shoulder more family responsibilityC.they have longer maternity leaves to enjoyD.having a second child makes them less popular35.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Effects of Two-child Policy on WomenB.Disadvantages of Raising Two ChildrenC.Responsibilities of Career WomenD.Different attitudes of Employers to Women第二节(共5 小题;每小题2 分,满分10 分)据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ATwo of the hardest things to accomplish in this world are to acquire wealth by honest effort and, having gained it,to learn how to use it properly.Recently I walked into the locker room of a rather well known golf club after finishing a round.It was in the late afternoon and most of the members had left for their homes.But a half-dozen or so men past middle age were still seated at tables talking aimlessly and drinking more than was good for them.These same men can be found there day after day,and,strangely enough,each one of these men had been a man of affairs and wealth,successful in business and respected in the community.If material prosperity were the chief necessity for happiness,then each one should have been happy.Yet,it seemed to me,something very important was missing,else(否则)there would not have been the constant effort to escape the realities of life through scotch and soda.They knew,each one of them,that their productivity had ceased(停止). When a fruit tree ceases to bear its fruit,it is dying.And it is even so with man.What is the answer to a long and happy existence in this world of ours?I think I found it long ago in a passage from the book of Genesis which caught my eye while I was looking through my Bible. The words were few,but they became memorably impressed on my mind."In the sweat of the face shall you eat the bread."To me,that has been a challenge from my earliest recollections(memories).In fact,the battle of life,of existence,is a challenge to everyone.The immortal words of St.Paul,too,have been and always will be a great inspiration to me.At the end of the road I want to be able to feel that I have fought a good fight,I have finished the course,I have kept the faith.21.The underlined sentence"In the sweat of the face shall you eat the bread"means“”.A.Bread tastes delicious when sweat pours off your faceB.Bread comes from the sweat on your faceC.Failure is the mother of successD.No pains,no gains22.We learn from the passage that the author_______.A.was a wealthy person in the communityB.was fond of associating with celebrities(名人)C.held a positive attitude towards an active lifeD.kept a secret of the reason why he was so impressed23.What is implied in the passage by the writer?A.To use wealth properly,eat,drink and be merry.B.If you cease to struggle,you cease to live.C.As life is but like a dream,a man is like a fruit tree.D.Where there is a will,there is a way.BIt's such a happy-looking library,painted yellow,painted yellow,decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof.About the size of a microwave oven,it's pedestrian-friendly,too,waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates,along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.It's a library built with love.A year ago,shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization,a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available,she announced to her family of four,"That's what we're going to do for our spring break!"Son Austin,now a10th-grader,didn't see the point of building a library that resembles(与...相似)a mailbox.But Janey insisted.and husband Peter unwillingly got to work.The5-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he'd built years earlier for daughter Abbie's toy horses,and made a door of glass.After adding the library's final touches(装点),the family hung a signboard on the front,instructing users to"take a book,return a book",and making the Henriksen library,now one several hundred like it nationwide and among more than2500in the world,the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with20or so books they'd already read,a mix of science fiction,reference.titles,novels and kids'favorites."I told them,keep in mind that you might not see it again,"said Janey,a stay-at-home mom.Since then,the collection keeps replenishing(补充)itself,thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers.The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The project's best payoff,says Peter,are the thank-you notes left behind."We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular."24.Janey got the idea to build a library from______.A.a visit to Brian WilliamsB.a spring break with her familyC.a book sent by one of her neighborsD.a report on a Wisconsin-based organization25.The library was built______.A.by a ship supply companyB.on the basis of toy horsesC.like a mailboxD.with glass26.What can we infer about the signboard?A It was made by a user of the library. B.It marked a final touch to the library.C It aimed at making the library last long.D It indicated the library was a family property.27.The passage tells us that the users______.A.donate books to the libraryB.get paid to collect books for the libraryC receive thank-you notes for using the libraryD visit the library over5times on average dailyCYou may have heard of the book Moby Dick(《白鲸记》),written by the American author Herman Melville.You may also know that Moby Dick is considered one of the greatest novels ever written.However,it might surprise you to find out Herman Melville was not always a highly regarded author. Melville’s first two novels,Typee and Omoo,were widely read and financially successfully.They were both exciting tales of adventures at sea and experiences with people in foreign lands.Melville became quite famous.However,upon the publication of his third book,Mardi,Melville’s popularity began to weaken.He was no longer interested in telling tales of pure adventure,and his writing took on a style that alienated(使疏远)the general reading public of his time.Melville published Moby Dick in October of1851.it was an original novel,combining aspects of sociology and philosophy,which confused readers by its complex symbolism.The book sold poorly. Melville’s next book,Pierre,was almost completely disregarded by the public.Debt frustration and ill health finally forced Melville to take a low-paying job as a customs inspector.Eventually,Melville abandoned prose(散文)and began to write poetry.The Civil War is the main subject of Melville’s poetry.He and his brother made a trip to the front line,and he published a book of poems,Battle-Pieces and Aspects of War,based on this experience. Melville died in1891at the age of72.at this point,his work had been completely forgotten by the public.His talent was to go unrecognized for the next thirty years.Then,in1920s,his reputation began to improve as critics and readers rediscovered his work.Today Moby Dick is one of the best-known novels ever penned by an American author.28.What were Melville’s first two novels mainly about?A.His travel experience.B.His successful communication skills.C.Adventurous experiences in the front line.D.Adventurous voyages and foreign experiences.29.We can learn from the text that Moby Dick________.A.sold a little better than Pierre.B.was Melville’s favorite novel.C.was copied from other books.D.made Melville popular again.30.The text may be taken from___________.A.a writing guideB.a literary(文学的)journal.C.a science magazine.D.a critical book on literature.31.What is the text mainly about?A.The main works of Melville.B.The skills in Melville’s writing.C.The ups and downs of Melville.D.The reason for Melville’s failure.DThe Internet can be a great way to connect with people.The latest web craze is social networking on websites such as MySpace.More than65million young people use online social networking sites. That cyberspace(网络空间)trend is causing problems in school,however.In a recent survey,nearly 36percent of school administrators said that social networking sites troubled learning in their districts. Should school districts ban sites like MySpace?Teachers are worried that some students use social networking to post personal information and to cyber bully(恐吓)other students.One of the biggest dangers comes from people who find out kid’s personal information.Many districts have blocked students from accessing or using social networking sites from schoolcomputers,and some have suspended(暂缓)students for posting harmful material on those sites from their home computers.Nearly two-thirds of US kids have computers in their homes,according to the US Census Bureau.It is important to keep in mind that just blocking access to social web sites at school is not the end of the story,”warns NSBA executive director Anne Bryant,“Most of the misuse of these sites takes place at home but still affects the classroom.”Some educators aren’t as quick to pull the plug on social networking.They say the main problem with sites like MySpace is that students don’t understand the dangers involved in using them.“Many students are posting personal information about themselves without regard to who has access to that information,”Jim Hirsch said,“Schools should focus on educating their students and their parents on how to be safe online.”Experts argue that too many schools are forbidding students to use social networking web sites without thinking about their educational benefits.“Social networking web sites can help connect students in the United States to their peers in other countries,providing invaluable lessons in foreign cultures,”explains Hirsch.32.Where do students usually misuse social networking sites?A.At the teacher’s office.B.At the net bar.C.At the classroom.D.At home.33.The underlined sentence in Paragraph6may mean___________.A.some educators are in favor of students’using social networking sitesB.some educators can’t block students from accessing social networking sitesC.some educators can’t connect social networking sites easilyD.some educators find it difficult to close social networking sites34.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.The Internet can’t be a good bridge to get along well with students.B.There are some students threatening other students by using social networking.C.Most of the misuse of these social web sites takes place at school and affects the home.D.Too many schools allow students to use social networking sites without Question.35.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A.Lessons Online?B.Friendship Online?C.Dangers Online?rmation Online?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。
