The Brown BearMy wife Laura and I were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear. The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us!” An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back---- the sign (迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.I held my camera tripod (三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long.Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear. The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away.I was actually wrestling (扭打) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back toward the forest, before returning for another attack----- The first time I felt panic.Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardlyhave been better. I’m proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.1..The brown bear approached the family in order to _______.A. catch shore birdsB. start an attackC. protect the childrenD. set up a barrier for itself2. The bear finally went away after it _______.A. felt safeB. got injuredC. found some foodD. took away the camera3. The writer and his family survived mainly due to their ______ .A. prideB. PatienceC. calmnessD. CautiousnessChoosing the Right Resolution (决定)Millions of Americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing weight. However, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake.To reach our goal of losing weight --- the output, we need to control what we eat --- the input ( 输入). That is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construct goals. The alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “I’ll stop having desert for lunch,” or “I’ll walk every day for 20 minutes.” Creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the outcome.Recently a new science behind incentives (激励) , including in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school. In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. Fryer’s conclusion was that the intensives for inputs might be more effective because do not know how to do better on exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control.As long as you have direct control over your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. And it’s easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do.If you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. This is a well-specified action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. Spending less money isn’t a goal because it’s too general. Similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, don’t stop with this general wish. Think bout an actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family movie night every Wednesday.In the long run, these new goals could become a habit.4. The writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because _______ .A. it is hard to achieve for most AmericansB. it is focused too much on the resultC. it is dependent on too many thingsD. it is based on actionable decisions5. In Roland Fryer’s research, some students did better than the others because ______ .A. they obeyed all the general rulesB. they paid more attention to examsC. they were motivated by their classmatesD. they were rewarded for reading some books6. According to the writer, which of the following statements is a good goal?A. “I’ll give up desert.”B. “I’ll study harder.”C. “I’ll cut down my expense”D. “I’ll spend more time with my family”7. The writer strongly believes that we should ________ .A. develop good habits and focus on the outcomeB. be optimistic about final goals and stick to themC. pick specific actions that can be turned into good habitsD. set ambitious goals that can balance the input and output第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20分）阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AThe human beings seem to be facing a crisis (危机). After our best Go players were defeated one by one by the artificial intelligence (AI) AlphaGo, we lost our pride of being at the top of the intelligence chain. And in October, when Saudi Arabia gave citizenship to a robot named Sophia, another privilege of being human was taken away. It looks like everything that separates humans and AI is at risk right now.But we keep hoping that instead of “everything”, there’s still something left in us that makes us irreplaceable.To Hao Jingfang, winner of the 2016 Hugo Award for Best Novelette, that “something” is our consciousness. “AlphaGo is intelligent in a certain way, but not intelligent enough to ask the important questions —— Do I like playing Go? Do I want to play Go today? Why do I have to play Go when you tell me to?” she once said. In other words, computer programs don’t have a choice to say “no”. They probably don’t even know what a “choice” is —— all they ever do is calculate.And to He Huaihong, a philosophy (哲学) professor at Peking University, imagination and creativity are also what make us special. “A machine couldn’t have come up with the theory of gravity just because it was hit by a falling apple”, he said. “It’s human imagination that connects what seem to be completely random and irrelevant concepts, something that a machine——which works by fixed rules only——can't do, at least for now.”This is why BBC reporter Viktor Mayer-Schonberger suggested that instead of focusing on how computers have overshadowed us on calculating abilities than humans, we should probably “consider our quality at a different end of the spectrum (光谱)：creativity, originality (原创性), even plain illogical craziness, instead of hard-nosed (顽固的) logic”, he wrote.So maybe in the future, as artificial intelligence becomes even more intelligent,humans and A1 will learn to use each other’s talents for good. If AI can handle the boring tasks like calculating and driving for us, we’ll have more time to create, think, and be busy with “being human”.29. What can we learn about AlphaGo, according to Hao Jingfang?A. It will be taught to say no in the future.B. It will be more intelligent than humans one day.C. It has difficulty answering personal questions.D. It is unable to think independently as humans do.30. What does He Huaihong believe is unique to humans?A. Intelligence.B. Originality.C. The ability to make rules.D. The ability to make choices.31. What does the underlined word “overshadowed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Competed withB. Taken control ofC. Been more successful thanD. Influenced32. What could be the future of AI according to the author?A. It will be used to help humans, rather than compete with us.B. It may develop creativity besides better logical thinking.C. It might be very dangerous to humans in different fields.D. It will be applied to provide driving service for humans.BShortly after my fourth birthday, my parents and I arrived from China in Sydney, Australia. It was 1991 and my mother had left behind everything she knew——family, friends and career.Yet within two years, my parents’ marriage had broken down. After one particularly unpleasant fight, my mother left my father, taking me with her. With no family or friends, and in a country where she couldn’t even communicate, she took me to Chinatown, the only area of Sydney she was familiar with. That night she laid me on a bench in Dixon Street, packing suitcases around us for security(安全). I will never forget the despair in her face that night.At around 4 a.m., a group of four young Chinese men noisily exited a club nearby. Iremember them falling silent as they saw us. They approached and asked my mother why she was sleeping on the streets with such a young child. My mum burst into tears as she told them our story. Without hesitating, they warmed me up, took our suitcases, and drove us to their students housing.In the weeks that followed, the men looked after us with a youthful enthusiasm. Being poor students living on their own for the first time, they simply knew how to cook in a stupid way. However, they insisted that a child should have homemade meals. They quickly adjusted their lives around us, buying fresh food, cooking, teasing me to make me laugh, and advising my mum on how to sort out her life.Eventually, Mum reconciled (和解) with Dad and we moved back in with him, although they continued to split and make up several times.Gradually we lost touch with the men as we all moved on. But at every milestone of my life——graduations, entering university, getting a good job——I never forget that all of this was made possible because 22 years ago, a group of complete strangers took us in and shared everything they had to save us from life on the street.33. Why did Mom and I stay in Dixon Street that night?A. We were waiting for the Chinese men.B. Mom was unfamiliar with Australia at all.C. It was safe to stay there for night.D. We had no other place to go.34. How did the students feel the moment they saw us in the street?A. Ashamed.B. Shocked.C. Amused.D. Nervous.35. What message is conveyed in the passage?A. There is no perfect husband or wife in marriage.B. It’s the timely help to someone in need that matters.C. It’s a great challenge for the Chinese to study abroad.D. Childhood memory contributes to guiding present behavior.第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20分）阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Not paying attention to our food makes us tend to more snacking later.Over a series of experiments were carried out by researchers. For the first experiment,39 normal-weight young women were randomly assigned to one of three experimental conditions: a high-distraction group, a low-distraction group, and a no-distraction group. Each person was given the same 400-calorie lunch consisting of several food items presented in a fixed order, and instructed to eat all of the items.In the high-distraction group, the women were told to play a computer game whileeating, and that they would win money if they did well. In the low-distraction group they were just told to play the game while eating; and in the third group they were just told to eat their lunch. Later in the afternoon, each participant had access to a variety of biscuits on a plate, and the amount each person ate was assessed by weighing the plate before and afterwards.There was a significant difference between the groups. Those in the high-distraction condition ate 69 per cent more snacks than the no-distraction group, and those in the low-distraction group eating 28 per cent more (than those in the no-distraction group) .A second experiment, involving a further 63 people, was similar, but involved watching TV (in the distraction condition) and eating soup and bread. This found that those who watched TV while eating their lunch ate 19 per cent more biscuits later on than those who had eaten their meal without any distractions.A third experiment was also carried out, in which 45 normal-weight people were allocated to three groups. The first listened to an audio clip instructing them to imagine they were watching themselves eat—making them extremely focused on their own food intake. The second listened to a clip instructing them to imagine they were watching a celebrity—specifically David Beckham—eat (making them still focused on the food, but to a lesser degree);the third, which was the control group, just ate their lunch in silence. When all participants were given access to biscuits later, those in the self-imagining group-i.e. those who had really paid attention to what they were eating—ate far fewer than the other groups.24.Why does eating dinner with a TV or a smartphone make us fat?A. Because we're more likely to snack later on.B. Because we're paying more attention to our eating.C. Because food is becoming more delicious while we're playing.D. Because we need more calories while playing.25.What is TRUE about the three experiments?A. The low-distraction group ate the most snacks in the first experiment.B. Non-distracted members ate more biscuits later in the second experiment.C. Participants extremely focusing on eating ate far fewer in the third experiment.D. Each person was told to watch TV or play a game.26.What would be the best title for the text?A. Eating attentively doesn't help control appetite.B. Attentive eating increases later snack intake.C. Focusing on food increases later snack intake.D. Distraction leads to more snacking later.第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分,满分20分）A small boy at summer camp received a large package of cookies (饼干) in the mail from his mother.

On June 15.BChinese researchers say they have come up with a simple way to find out aperson’s biological age —how much the body has aged physically – through a urine (尿) test.Their findings will help researchers conduct numbers of ageing studies and even predict a person’s risk of age-related diseases, according to a paper published in the journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.Another paper by researchers at the Beijing Hospital and the West China Hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province, said on Tuesday that people aged at different rates due to changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.Chronological age – which is based on one’s birth date —was an inaccurate measure of biological age so a more accurate method was needed, the team said.Ageing is driven by the lifelong gradual accumulation of a broad variety of molecular (分子) faults in the body’s cells. The team said they had identified a matter —8-oxoGsn — that indicated increases in oxidative (氧化性) damage in urine as people’s bodies aged.Cai Jianping, a co-author at the Beijing Hospital, said: “As we age, we suffer increasing oxidative damage and so the levels of oxidative matters increase in our body.” The team tested the levels of 8-oxoGsn in urine samples from 1,228 Chinese people aged two to 90 and concluded the marker helped accurately determine the stage of biological ageing in adults.They had previously found that 8-oxoGsn levels also increased with age in the urine of animals such as mice.The team has also developed a rapid analysis technique called ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography, which can process up to 10 urine samples an hour, according to the study.12. Scientifically speaking, by what does a doctor judge the stage of a person getting old?A. His condition.B. His biological age.C. His psychology.D. His chronological age.13. What are the outer factors the speed of one’s ageing physically depend on?A. One’s birth date.B. The increases in oxidative damage in urine.C. The changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.D. The accumulation of various molecular faults in the body’s cells.14. Which can take the place of the underlined word “marker” in the sixth paragraph?A. 8-oxoGsn.B. Molecular faults.C. Oxidative damage.D. Stage of biological ageing in adults.15. What is the passage about?A. Why people are ageing.B. How to delay people’s ageing physically.C. What determines the stage of people’s ageing physically.D. A rapid method with which to judge how much people are aging physically. 第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业13第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，共20分）阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ANo one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids near Cairo. But a new study suggests they used a little rock ‘n’ roll. Long-ago builders could have attached wooden poles to the stones and rolled them across the sand, the scientists say.“Technically, I think what they’re proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And there’s no obvious answer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck. The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged them along paths. To make the work easier, workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle. Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea.Researchers found small amounts of fat, as well as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths.However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way, who led the new study. West said, “I was inspired while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction. I thought, ‘Why don’t they just try rolling the things?’ ” A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides, he realized. That, he notes, should make a block of stone “a lot easier to roll than a square”.So he tried it .He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block. That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground.They wrapped one end of a rope around the block and pulled.The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving it along a slippery(滑的)path.West hasn’t tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages ove r sliding.At least, workers wouldn’t have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.28. It’s widely b elieved that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by ______.A. rolling them on roadsB. pushing them over the sandC. dragging them on some polesD. sliding them on smooth paths29. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?A. Rolling the blocks with poles attached.B. Rolling the blocks on wooden wheels.C. Rolling poles to move the blocks.D. Rolling the blocks with fat.30. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West?A. Because more force is needed for sliding.B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.C. Because sliding on smooth roads is more dangerous.D. Because less preparation on paths is needed for rolling.31. What is the text mainly about?A. An application of the method of moving blocks to the pyramid site.B. An experiment on ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site.C. An argument about different methods of moving blocks to the pyramid site.D. An introduction to a possible new way of moving blocks to the pyramid site.BWith rapid advances in medical science, cloning is slowly but surely looking like it could be in our near future. However, is it really an option that should be considered as a way to extend human life?Reproductive cloning may help human families gain children, an d there’s also a benefit for the animal world. It brings hope to people eager for children but unable to have their own or adopt. It can also bring about the recreation of species that have long since died, allowing scientists to fully study the species as a living creature instead of simply looking at images or bones.Many believe that cloning can be used to replace failing organs. This will reduce the waiting list for organ donations and allow more people to be saved. Not only that, but because the organ is, in fact, your own organ, there would be less chance of rejection.Cloning could prove helpful in genetic research. Using cloning technologies, genetic researchers would have a better understanding of composition of genes and the effects of genetic constituents（成分）on human characters. There’s also the possibility of changing genetic constituents in cloned humans, and cloning could help fight genetic diseases.While the cloning of body organs can help extend human life, it could also cause a lot of malpractice （玩忽职守）. Along with the ability to clone desired characters, there could be the possibility of people deliberately reproducing undesired characters. This could lead to a rise in malpractice within society.Cloning involves a process of creating identical genes. As such, there would be a lack of diversity in humankind. Scientists will lower the human race’s ability to adapt.Whatever your view on cloning may be, studies show that the clone would in fact not be completely identical to the original just as twins are not completely identical. Though they might look alike, twins have different personalities and enjoy different things. The same could be said of clones. Even if technology were created in which your memories and thoughts could be transmitted to the clone, your clone would still be a different person.32. What good might reproductive cloning bring?A. It may help improve human well-being.B. It could contribute to the rising birthrate.C. It could help animals survive deadly diseases.D. It may enable scientists to better study extinct species.33.

Here are some that you might find at the market pretty soon.CX-1Tired of dragging your bag through busy airports? Then you might want to consider CX-1. The smart suitcase uses facial recognizing software to follow its owner as he/ she is checking in or heading to the gate. Though CX-1 can only move at a speed ofup to seven miles per hour, a tiny tool enables owners to keep track of the suitcase’s location. It is expected to be sold on the market by late 2018.AiboSony’s latest version of the Aibo robotic dog is almost as fun as the real thing—but much less w ork. T he p et dog can recognize its owner, obey several commands, and even recall the behavior that pleases its master the most. Aibo can also learn new tricks, take photographs, and over time, develop its own unique personality. ForpheusForpheus, an “athletic” robot developed by Japanese technology company Omron. It teaches users how to play ping-pong. The 10-feet-tall machine uses a camera and artificial intelligence to track the ball’s speed and can predict the ball’sdirection correctly. The smart Forpheus can also quickly test its player’s abilitiesand adjust the playing level, making the game fun.Black Box VRThough many people determine to go to the gym once a week, few reach their goal.

河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业13第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，共20分）阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ANo one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids near Cairo. But a new study suggests they used a little rock ‘n’ roll. Long-ago builders could have attached wooden poles to the stones and rolled them across the sand, the scientists say.“Technically, I think what they’re proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And there’s no obvious answer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck. The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged them along paths. To make the work easier, workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle. Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea.Researchers found small amounts of fat, as well as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths.However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way, who led the new study. West said, “I was inspired while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction. I thought, ‘Why don’t t hey just try rolling the things?’ ” A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides, he realized. That, he notes, should make a block of stone “a lot easier to roll than a square”.So he tried it .He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block. That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground.They wrapped one end of a rope around the block and pulled.The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the blockrequired about as much force as moving it along a slippery(滑的)path.West hasn’t tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages ove r sliding. At least, workers wouldn’t have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.28. It’s widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by ______.A. rolling them on roadsB. pushing them over the sandC. dragging them on some polesD. sliding them on smooth paths29. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?A. Rolling the blocks with poles attached.B. Rolling the blocks on wooden wheels.C. Rolling poles to move the blocks.D. Rolling the blocks with fat.30. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West?A. Because more force is needed for sliding.B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.C. Because sliding on smooth roads is more dangerous.D. Because less preparation on paths is needed for rolling.31. What is the text mainly about?A. An application of the method of moving blocks to the pyramid site.B. An experiment on ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site.C. An argument about different methods of moving blocks to the pyramid site.D. An introduction to a possible new way of moving blocks to the pyramid site.BWith rapid advances in medical science, cloning is slowly but surely looking like it could be in our near future. However, is it really an option that should be considered as a way to extend human life?Reproductive cloning may help human families gain children, and there’s also a benefit for the animal world. It brings hope to people eager for children but unable to have their own or adopt. It can also bring about the recreation of species that have long since died, allowing scientists to fully study the species as a living creature instead of simply looking at images or bones.Many believe that cloning can be used to replace failing organs. This will reduce thewaiting list for organ donations and allow more people to be saved. Not only that, but because the organ is, in fact, your own organ, there would be less chance of rejection.Cloning could prove helpful in genetic research. Using cloning technologies, genetic researchers would have a better understanding of composition of genes and the effects of genetic constituents（成分）on human characters. There’s also the possibility of changing genetic constituents in cloned humans, and cloning could help fight genetic diseases.While the cloning of body organs can help extend human life, it could also cause a lot of malpractice （玩忽职守）. Along with the ability to clone desired characters, there could be the possibility of people deliberately reproducing undesired characters. This could lead to a rise in malpractice within society.Cloning involves a process of creating identical genes. As such, there would be a lack of diversity in humankind.

Though they might look alike, twins have different personalities and enjoy different things. The same could be said of clones. Even if technology were created in which your memories and thoughts could be transmitted to the clone, your clone would still be a different person.32. What good might reproductive cloning bring?A.

AA loyal cat has been bringing his owner small gifts every day in a show of affection. After all, the cat’s owner h as been dead for over a year.Toldo —a cute, 3-year-old black and white cat lives in Montagnana, northern Italy. Toldo has been visiting his owner —Iozzelli Renzo, who died on September 22, 2018, aged 71—every day for the past year and leaving small presents at the grave.The gifts usually consist of leaves, sticks, plastic cups or paper towels.“Even today I went to the cemetery with Toldo. On the way back, someone I know told me the cat has already been there early this morning,” Renzo’s wife, Ada, told the Corriere Fiorentino. Neighbors have also seen Toldo wandering around the cemetery through the day. It started the day of the funeral, when the cat followed the coffin from the house to the cemetery.The next morning, Ada went to the grave a gain. “We went to the cemetery with my daughter and found a flower on the grave. I immediately thought that it was the cat, but my daughter was convinced that I was just in a very emotional state at that moment.” She told the news source. That night, ho wever, Renzo’s son returned to the cemetery and found Toldo standing guard at the grave. Ada says that her late husband shared a particularly strong bond with Toldo —he’d adopted the cat from a cat colony when he was just 3 months old.Unfortunately, not everyone believes in the moving relationship between Toldo and his owner. Ada said that people often try to drive the cat away. “There are insensitive people who send him away with stones or other things, convinced that the presence of an animal in the cemetery is not good.” She told the news source. Still, Toldo continues to visit the grave every day.21. Why does the cat take some gifts for his owner?A. The cat likes small gifts very much.B. The cat wants to be praised by peopleC. The cat wants to show his love for the owner.D. The cat’s owner has been dead for over a year.22. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. The cat has been to the cemetery since the day of the funeral.B. The cat is welcome to the cemetery by all people around.C. Toldo was loved by his owner very much.D. Toldo was adopted at a very young age.23. Some people try to drive the cat away because _____.A. the gifts which Toldo brings in will make the cemetery dirty.B. they believe that the cat is not a good animal.C. they think a cat should not appear in the cemetery.D. they think there is no need to guard at the grave.BApple’s ipad has been a huge hit among children, with its easy to use interface(界面) and innovative apps.In fact, researchers say the astonishing rise of the ipad has meant it has now overtaken household names such as McDonalds and Disney to become the number one brand among American 6-12 year olds.The annual study, conducted by leading youth and family research firm Smarty Pants, ranks命题：姓名_______more than 250 brands each year. “iPad’s number one status among kids represents the summit of the ‘tablet takeover’—a movement from shared screens and TV network dominance to planned content on personal devices.” Said Wynne Tyree, president of Smarty Pants. “Kids increasingly turn to iPad for games, TV shows, videos, books, homework help and communicating with friends and family.In the firm’s 2018 study, Apple’s iPad went ahead of kid brands such as McDonald’s and Disney. Kids see the iPad as the all-in-one digital tool, giving them a unique sense of independence, the researchers say.Tyree notes that iPad’s march to the top has been dramatic. “In just five years, the iPad has risen from ranking 109th to being kid’s favorite brand. Early on, it captured the hearts of teens and middle and upper class families, but iPad is now an indispensable(不可或缺的) part of childhood for the masses.”On the study iPad was tops with a weighted score of 898 out of 1,000. Disney came at 858, Google’s YouTube 852, McDonald’s 839, iPhone 830 and Apple 829. Digital entertainment overall is seeing an increase among kids and families, with brands such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Instant Video, Android, and Samsung posting noteworthy increases in the study, a measure of kids’ awareness, popularity, and love for a brand. Along with iPad, these devices and services provide entertainment that is “always on”.Offering seemingly endless options, tablets and digital content providers are meeting contemporary kids’ needs—with fun and connectivity never more than a tap away.24. What is the “tablet takeover” movement according to the passage?A. In the movement everyone owns an iPad.B. It refers to the shift from watching TV together to using an iPad separately.C. In the movement people become more independent in entertainment.D. In the movement people receive more information from an iPad than from TV.25. What makes an iPad appealing to the kids?A. An iPad helps the kids build up stronger relationships with their parents.B. An iPad can develop the kids’ reading skills.C. With an iPad, the kids can become a better learner.D. They can watch TV shows using an iPad.26. What is the correct ranking according to scores from the study of Smarty Pants?A. Disney—YouTube—Apple—iPhone—iPad—McDonald’sB. iPad—Disney—YouTube-- McDonald’s—iPhone—AppleC. iPhone—Disney—iPad-- McDonald’s—YouTube-- AppleD. iPad—Apple—iPhone-- McDonald’s—Disney—YouTube27. What can we infer from the passage?A. Apple’s iPad can develop the kids’ creativity.B. Tablet and digital providers can never meet the kids’ needs.C. An iPad can provide the kids with most entertainment.D. An iPad’s fun and connection to the Internet attracts the kids most.CSuccess can mean different things for different people. For some, success may be a large salary and a nice car. For others, it may mean a well-fed and happy family. For college students, it means making good marks or passing grades in order to earn a degree.And there lies a slight difficulty with some college students. The way in which they achieve success may not always be that they earned it. Earning requires hard work, and most importantly, honesty. Some students cheat to simply gain success. On Aug. 30, news of the largest cheating scandal at Harvard University broke out. It is said on Thursday that the undergraduate class had a minimum of 250 students and possible cheating was discovered in roughly half the take-home exams.The investigation is still underway but consequences for those found guilty could range from awarning to a forced withdraw from the university for a year. And some of the undergraduates in the course were seniors, so the latter consequence could also mean giving back their degree and maybe even losing the jobs acquired after graduation. Although such consequences may have a harsh negative and possibly life-changing impact on some students’ lives, I believe it is entirely necessary to ensure that academic integrity(诚信) is a respected and necessary requirement for academic success.Harvard University is commonly thought of as the top of higher education. It is a name anyone would like to put on their resume. Although some one will admit to knowing the occasional st udent who found a way to cheat on an exam, the highest standards won’t give way to cheating. In a word where academic integrity is sometimes lost in the pursuit of making the dean’s list, take pride when you make the effort to do your best and honest work. Success achieved in any way is great, but success achieved honestly is the only success you can truly call your own.28. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Searching for the Lost IntegrityB. Cheating is Common in UniversityC. Changing the Old Exam SystemD. Taking Measures on Examinations29. Some students are different from others because____.A. they long for a well-fed and happy lifeB. they have difficulty in earning a degreeC. they lack honesty when taking examsD. they only think about their own success30. Which of the following does the underlined word “those” in the third paragraph refer to?A. Students achieving high marks.B. Persons undertaking the investigation.C. Students cheating in the exams.D. Persons receiving degrees.31. If the case found to be true,_______.A. some undergraduates will lose their degree.B. some students will have to find jobs.C. some undergraduates will change their lives.D. some students will be hired from their posts.32. Which of the following does the author agree with?A. Harvard University can provide higher education.B. Cheating has nothing to do with Harvard University.C. Success by hard work will make you feel proud.D. Success achieved in any way is great and admirable.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）Liz sighed, “You have no good reason to make me __41__Sara’s party next Friday, Mom,” she __42__. “You don’t even know her, and I think you’re very __43__.“No, I don’t know her.” said Mom. “I don’t know her __44__, either, and that’s __45__ why I can’t let you go to the party.

河北省武邑中学2018_2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业8含答案
河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业8第一节阅读理解（共7小题；每小题2分，共14分）(A)Stay-at-home or working mom?Nowadays, there is a heated discussion: Which is worthwhile, being a full time working or a stay-at-home mum? Readers share their opinions and you're welcome to add yours. Catherine (China)I love being a stay-at-home mom. In the beginning it was truly rough for me from beinga workaholic(工作狂) to staying at home. Yet, I did not want my child to face growing up with both parents at work. So after discussing it with my husband, we decided that I would be the one to stay at home. Now, our daughter is soon to be 3 years old, and has an amazing personality. It's not for everyone but it is very rewarding in the long term.Sassy(Canada)Taking care of children is a temporary job, and children will grow up and leave. The longer women are out of the workplace, the harder it is to enter it. Women need to realize and accept that you do not want to be dependent on anyone for basic food, clothes and shelter. It has been hard to work and take care of my kids but I make it work.Cynthia (US)Some days I think we shouldn't give up on our careers. And some days I'm jealous of the moms who get to stay home or at least work part time. I'm the only one that supports the family, so there will never be an option for me. I have the career and title I've always wanted but now I can't help but think it's at the expense of precious time with my family.Celina (US)Being a stay-at-home mom isn't always easy, but it is worth it! Being there with my children means they are getting the exact love and care I want them to have. We do not have a lot of money, but we've sacrificed to make it possible.21. What can we learn about Catherine?A. She stayed at home because she was tired about her job.B. Her husband agreed with her staying at home.C. Her daughter was very naughty.D. She accustomed herself to staying at home easily.22. How many working moms in this passage?A. 1B. 2C. 3D. 423. Which one is NOT true?A. Celina feels dissatisfied with the life now.B. Cynthia has no other choice but to get a job.C. Sassy is determined to be an independent woman.D. Catherine thinks that being a stay-at-home mom is worthwhile.(B)A Ray of SunshineMy daughter, Fiona, and her family had a beautiful nine-year-old golden retriever, Sunny. Fiona’s in-laws lived in New Zealand and every time the family went over to visit them, we got to mind the dog. Fiona would also leave her bronze Landcruiser at our place, parked right where Sunny could see it, for as long as the dog could check that the car was still there, which he did regularly, he was happy. Sunny knew from past experience that if the car was there, the family would come back. Each time they did, I jokingly told them not to bother picking up Sunny because he was a joy to have around.He was beautiful with the family, and when an unexpected baby came along --- 17 years after her older sister --- Sunny was lovely and gentle with her.In April 2017 we learnt that the family was relocating to New Zealand. Realizing the bond that existed between them and Sunny, I knew they would want to take him. But with limited finances they found it too expensive to take their much-loved dog.So we adopted him.Their car, yet to be sold, was parked at our side gate and Sunny kept watching over it, checking on it each day before going for a walk. I think it was his security blanket. Then, a few months later, when the car was finally sold, poor Sunny had to adjust to losing yet another part of his family.With the car gone, Sunny discovered that cats visit the area and this has held his interest (though not as much as the car!). We’ve had a few problems, but Sunny has now settled in very well and is far better trained than any of our previous dogs.Sunny is lovely company and has been a beautiful addition to our family.24.Why did Fiona park her car at her parents’ house every time she went to visit her relatives in New Zealand? A. Because it was another part of Sunny’s famil y.B. Because Sunny took great interest in watching it.C. Because it was Sunny’s routine before going for a walk.D. Because to Sunny it meant the family would come back.25. What can we learn from the text?A. Fiona once joked about attending to Sunny.B. The family had two kids with a huge age difference.C. Cats could hold Sunny’s attention as well as the car did.D. The family moved to New Zealand with their beloved dog.26.

河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业8第一节阅读理解（共7小题；每小题2分，共14分）(A)Stay-at-home or working mom?Nowadays, there is a heated discussion: Which is worthwhile, being a full time working or a stay-at-home mum? Readers share their opinions and you're welcome to add yours.Catherine (China)I love being a stay-at-home mom. In the beginning it was truly rough for me from being a workaholic(工作狂) to staying at home. Yet, I did not want my child to face growing up with both parents at work. So after discussing it with my husband, we decided that I would be the one to stay at home. Now, our daughter is soon to be 3 years old, and has an amazing personality. It's not for everyone but it is very rewarding in the long term.Sassy(Canada)Taking care of children is a temporary job, and children will grow up and leave. The longer women are out of the workplace, the harder it is to enter it. Women need to realize and accept that you do not want to be dependent on anyone for basic food, clothes and shelter. It has been hard to work and take care of my kids but I make it work.Cynthia (US)Some days I think we shouldn't give up on our careers. And some days I'm jealous of the moms who get to stay home or at least work part time. I'm the only one that supports the family, so there will never be an option for me. I have the career and title I've always wanted but now I can't help but think it's at the expense of precious time with my family.Celina (US)Being a stay-at-home mom isn't always easy, but it is worth it! Being there with my children means they are getting the exact love and care I want them to have. We do not have a lot of money, but we've sacrificed to make it possible.21. What can we learn about Catherine?A. She stayed at home because she was tired about her job.B. Her husband agreed with her staying at home.C. Her daughter was very naughty.D. She accustomed herself to staying at home easily.22. How many working moms in this passage?A. 1B. 2C. 3D. 423. Which one is NOT true?A. Celina feels dissatisfied with the life now.B. Cynthia has no other choice but to get a job.C. Sassy is determined to be an independent woman.D. Catherine thinks that being a stay-at-home mom is worthwhile.(B)A Ray of SunshineMy daughter, Fiona, and her family had a beautiful nine-year-old golden retriever, Sunny. Fiona’s in-laws lived in New Zealand and every time the family went over to visit them, we got to mind the dog. Fiona would also leave her bronze Landcruiser at our place, parked right where Sunny could see it, for as long as the dog could check that the car was still there, which he did regularly, he was happy. Sunny knew from past experience that if the car was there, the family would come back. Each time they did, I jokingly told them not to bother picking up Sunny because he was a joy to have around.He was beautiful with the family, and when an unexpected baby came along --- 17 years after her older sister --- Sunny was lovely and gentle with her.In April 2017 we learnt that the family was relocating to New Zealand.

河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业10第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，共20分）阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AThe temperature of your body should be always just the same, no matter whether the weather is hot or cold. That is why the doctor uses his thermometer （温度计）when your are sick.The body keeps the same temperature all the time ,because it balances the heat it produces and it gives off. It is always burning up food and , producing heat. It can produce heat faster when it needs to give off heat than when it becomes too warm. Let’s see how this happen.The heat of your body is given off mainly through the skin. When you are cold, your skin is tight and shows “good flesh”. When you get chilly, you must dance around to keep warm or else you will shiver. Then your muscles begin to work, burn up fuel, and produce more heat. It is not pleasant to shiver, so you usually prefer to warm up by exercise, or put on more clothes to keep heat in.When you are warm, the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied with blood that heat is given off rapidly. If you get too warm, you begin to sweat ,and more body heat is used in evaporating the moisture（水蒸气） from your skin. You wear less clothing, too, in warm weather or warm room, so that warm can be given off freely. You feel less like exercising because your body is warm already, and the extra heat produced by exercise makes you uncomfortable.You can see from the way you feel differently in different kinds of weather. In summer, when it is warm, you feel tired and lazy. You do not care to work or play, but enjoy lying and doing nothing. When you get out of doors in winter, the cold air makes you feel lively. You want to play.1.Which is another title suitable of the passage?A．The Patients’ Temperature B．The Body Temperature Should Always Be the SameC．The Body Temperature D．The Temperature and Your Skin2.How does the body keep the same temperature all the time?A．It is always producing heat from food. B．It gives off the heat produced in it.C．It balances the heat it gets and loses. D．It stops producing heat when necessary.3.When one feels chilly, which of the following will he do?A．His skin becomes tight in order to keep warm.B．He does exercises to make his muscle produce more heat.C．He puts on more clothes to keep heat in.D．He keeps shivering to produce more heat.B“High tech” and “state of the art” are two expressions that describe very modern technology. High tech is just a shorter way of saying high technology. And high technology describes any invention or system that uses the newest ideas or discoveries of science and engineering.What is high tech? A computer is high tech. So is a communications satellite.A modern manufacturing (制造业的) system is surely high tech.High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980’s. Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens (微波炉), etc. “State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible. It is a product that is based on the very latest ways and technology. Something that is “state of the art” is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry. A state of the art television set, for example, uses the most modern electronic design and parts. It is the best that one can buy.“State of the art” is not a new expression. Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best and most modern way of doing something.Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970’s. The reason was the computer revolution（革命）. Every computer company claimed (声称) that its computers were “state of the art”.Computer technology changes so fast that a state of the art computer today might be old tomorrow. The expression “state of the art” has become as common and popular as computers themselves. Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art”.4.What is the purpose of the passage?A．To tell how “high tech” and “state of the art” have developed.B．To give examples of high tech.C．To tell what “high tech” and “state of the art” are.D．To describe very modern technology.5.What can we learn from the passage?A．American stores could provide new kinds of products to the people.B．“High tech” describes a technology that is not traditional.C．“State of the art” became popular later than “high tech”.D．A lantern out of a big orange pumpkin is “state of the art”.6.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Since the computer revolution, the expression “state of the art” has become popular.B．“State of the art” means something that is the best one can buy.C．With the development of computer technology, a state of the art computer may easily become unpopular.D．All the producers claim that their products are “state of the art” nowadays.7.The best title for the passage is .A．Computer TechnologyB．High Tech and State of the ArtC．Most Advanced TechnologyD．Two New Expressions第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20分）阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

DeLuca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future. “I’m going to college, but I needa way to pay f or it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, ‘You should open a sandwich shop.’”That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 storesin ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1000. DeLuca renteda storefront (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldn’t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1000.But business didn’t go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didn’t know how badly, because we didn’t have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New Y ork. They’d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “Weconvinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, ‘We are so successful, we are opening a second store.’” And they did—in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.But the partners’ learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn’t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says.And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal,” DeLuca adds.DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich, the multimillion-dollar restaurant chain.4. DeLuca opened the first sandwich shop in order to ______.A. support his familyB. pay for his college educationC. help his partner expand businessD. do some research5. What can we learn about their first shop?A. It stood at an unfavorable place.B. It lowered the prices to promote sales.C. It made no profits due to poor management.D.

APlanning a cruise on a budget often involves searching for the best cruise deals and specials. While it's true that one of the best ways to save on cruises is to choose major lines' seasonal promotional offers, there are other ways to significantly reduce the cost of your trip. You might even be able to enjoy a cruise on as little as $100 a day.We consulted with Colleen McDaniel, senior executive editor of Cruise Critic, to get even more money-saving tips. Read on to discover how you can enjoy cruises for cheap.Purchase an all-inclusive packageAn easy way to rack up(增加) a high cruise bill is by taking advantage of every extra that a cruise line has to offer without knowing which extras are included in the package you've purchased. If you're worried about spending too much on activities, beverages, food and accommodations, book an all-inclusive package, which could help you save money in the long run.Seek unadvertised discountsThough they don't always advertise them, many cruise lines offer special prices for certain groups. Royal Caribbean, for example, extends special pricing on all cruises to airline employees.Call the cruise line to find out if it offers discounts for any groups, employers or organizations you are affiliated with, and you could save up to S100 or more a day on your booking.Use an app to track pricesIf you can be flexible with your travel dates, you might be able to get a great deal on a cruise by using an app like Cruise Critic. The app lets you monitor pricesof upcoming cruises and informs you of any major changes on prices as the days go by. If the price on your cruise drops after you've booked, you can contact the cruise line to negotiate the difference. The cruise line might refund you in the form of an onboard credit that you can use for cruise activities and other amenities during your trip.Look for local dealsMany cruise-goers extend their vacations by booking stays and planning activities in port cities before and after the cruise. If this is your plan, save money on dining and adventures by looking for local deals ahead of time.1. According to the passage, who might get unadvertised discounts of Royal Carribbean?A. Senior editors.B. Royal members.C. Airline employees.D. Local cruise-goers.2. The main purpose of the passage is to____.A. advertise a cruise appB. present the advantages of a cruiseC. inform people of what to do on a cruiseD. offer tips on saving money for a cruise trip3. The passage is most probably taken from a ______.A. sailing blogB. science journalC. travel brochureD. finance magazineBThe Power of a NameMy full name is Lily Myunghi M. When my parents gave me this name, they created an important part of my identity that will be part of me forever.My first name, Lily, was inspired by a story my mom heard a long time ago. Some people wanted to get rid of their tiger lilies, so they dug a deep, deep hole and threw the tiger lily plants in. For years, they felt they had succeeded in killing the lilies. But one spring, strong, green stocks rose to the surface. My mom named me Lily because she hoped for a beautiful daughter, who would also be strong and resilient, just like those orange blossomed lily plants.My middle name is Myunghi. My mom, who is of Korean heritage, wanted to honor our Asian roots. The middle name means "clear-eyed girl" in Korean. My parents choseit because they believe life is difficult, and they hoped being "clear-eyed" would help me find my way in the world.However, in English, Myunghi loses its beautiful meaning. It becomes the hesitation on people's faces as they stumble over its mere two syllables(音节). It becomes the surprised expressions of classmates who have never heard a name anything like it before It becomes a blushing(脸红的)little girl, embarrassed by her own name, a name that her parents put so much thought into.When I was younger, I hid my middle name, pre tending it didn't exist. Looking back, I pity the girl who was too ashamed to reveal her full name to anyone.My grandparents were raised in Korea, where parents take great care choosing a name with a meaning that will help their child through life. My grandparents were born into the Japanese Occupation of Korea and assigned Japanese names, which stripped(剥夺) away their cultural identities bit by bit.I've grown to love and appreciate my name. I no longer hide my name, but instead, proudly announce it, since my grandparents could not. I accept this special part of my identity that was chosen especially for me.My full name is Lily Myunghi M. It paints a magnificent picture of unconditional love, hope, and heritage coming together to form a girl. And that girl, is me.4. We can know from the story that tiger liliesA. are strong plantsB. are green stocksC. have white blossomsD. grow in deep holes5. Why did the author try to hide her middle name when she was younger?A. She was ashamed of her Asian roots.B. She felt awkward about her unusual name.C. She felt it difficult to pronounce the name.D. She was too shy to fit in with her classmates.6. What does the author intend to tell us?A. A good name brings a bright future .B. Her name helps to keep her identity.C. She appreciates the love from her parents.D. Parents often pick an unusual name for the child.第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分,满分20分）阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
