For 800 years Oxford and Cambridge universities have competed in everything from Nobel Prizes to boat races.The academic competition runs deep: Oxford has tutored 25 British prime ministers， while Cambridge claims Darwin and Newton as its own.But today the wellknown universities launch into battle on iTunes，taking their ancient competition into the 21st century. The universities are meanwhile publishing about 450 hours of free audio and video clips of lectures，films and admissions guides for people to download to a computer or MP3 player.They will also provide podcasts(播客)advising students on applications，how to choose a college，and how to prepare for an interview. They deny the launch at the same time is designed to start an iTunes race，instead claiming it is a sign they are opening up to a wider audience.John Hood ，Oxford's vicechancellor (副校长)，said: “We hope that this service will make Oxford's diverse range of audio and video material more widely accessible to applicants， alumni (校友)，supporters of the university，and the intellectually curious.” And Greg Hayman，head of communications at Cambridge，claims: “It's not just for students and potential students but for the wider public.” However，it will undoubtedly invite accusations(谴责) of a new battleground for the famous rivals(竞争对手)．After eight centuries the competition between them is fairly even：Oxford has produced more prime ministers but Cambridge claims more Nobel Prize winners.So who is the winner in the wave of electronic competition? Let's wait and see. 1. What battle do the two wellknown universities launch into? (No more than 4 words) 答案 iTunes/Electronic competition.

Taking exercise is closely related to health.Ⅱ.完形填空Today，February twenty-ninth，is leap day(闰日)．This date only appears on the calendar once every four years.But why?Everyone knows the Earth takes three hundred sixty-five days to travel around the sun.Well，that is not exactly correct.The Earth really takes three hundred sixty-five days，five hours，forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.The problem for people developing calendars was what to do with the extra five hours，forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds.People needed calendars to help them know when to plant crops and when to celebrate religious holidays.The ancient Greeks and Chinese had a solution.They produced calendars that included extra months every nineteen years.The ancient Romans had a different solution.In the year forty-six，the Roman ruler Julius Caesar made a new calendar.The Julian calendar included an extra day every four years.But there was a problem.The Julian year was just over eleven minutes longer than the cycle of the seasons.In 1582，Pope Gregory the Thirteenth established a new calendar to keep a better recorder of the days.Pole Gregory was the religiousleader of most of Europe.He decided that years that could be divided by four would add a day.However，years that ended in two zeros and that could not be evenly divided by four hundred would not be leap years.For example，the years 1700,1800 and 1900 were not leap years.But the years 1600 and 2000 were leap years.So leap years are years with three hundred sixty-six days，instead of the usual three hundred sixty-five.This extra day is added to the calendar on February twenty-ninth，sometimes known as leap day.People born on leap day may be called “leapings.”They usually celebrate their birthday on February twentyeight or March first.Title: 15.People6.extra months7.Julius Caesar8.every four years9.by four10.came into being/began to exist/was acceptedⅢ.阅读简答It's strange that a man born on Labor Day has had to work so hard to succeed in life.Jacob seems like a normal person.He likes music，art and photography.His parents both got college degrees.He used to go to a beach house in Portland every summer.Heis a big fan of Mexican food.Reading these facts about him may lead to the opinion that he had a great childhood.However，behind all of these is a past that would be terrible for many kids growing up.It started when he was only two years old.His parents divorced and then remarried.Going through elementary school and middle school，he was frightened a lot.This may have led to the worst thing that could have happened to a young man.He developed deep depression.Doing the smart thing，he talked to his parents about his problem.His parents decided that this issue was very serious and Jacob was admitted to West Hills Hospital.He stayed there for two weeks and had his depression diagnosed.Serious insomnia caused the problem.The solution was daily medication.The medication took care of Jacob's depression problem.However，it contained a substance with lithium(锂)．The side effect he suffered from lithium was that he got spoonfuls of sugar and ate it with anything else that was on his plate.This led to a weight gain of 25 pounds while he was on medication.So he decided he had to lose some weight and stop the medication.Now he has lost a big part of the weight and he has managed to solve his problem he had in high school.Now he is a happy human being.Many people would have had a very hard time coming back from depression.Many people probably would have given up their dreams.But Jacob is not like this.He took what was a mess of his life and turned it around to become a great man and a person with a very bright future.1. When was Jacob possibly born according to the passage? (No more than 3 words)答案On Labor Day.2. Why did Jacob suffer from deep depression? (No more than 4 words)答案Because of serious insomnia.3. How did Jacob gain the weight of 25 pounds while on medication? (No more than14 words)答案By eating spoonfuls of sugar with anything else that was on his plate.4. What can we know from Jacob's story? (No more than 10 words)答案He had a hard time but never gave up.。

2015年高考全国卷2英语试题及答案解析
2015年高考全国卷2英语试题第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.【参考答案】C【考查内容】细节理解题【解析思路】根据第一段第四行“when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid.”当我看到报纸上75美元比我买的价格低的时候，我感觉我上当了。

Taking exercise is closely related to health.Ⅱ.完形填空Today，February twenty-ninth，is leap day(闰日)．This date only appears on the calendar once every four years.But why?Everyone knows the Earth takes three hundred sixty-five days to travel around the sun.Well，that is not exactly correct.The Earth really takes three hundred sixty-five days，five hours，forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.The problem for people developing calendars was what to do with the extra five hours，forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds.People needed calendars to help them know when to plant crops and when to celebrate religious holidays.The ancient Greeks and Chinese had a solution.They produced calendars that included extra months every nineteen years.The ancient Romans had a different solution.In the year forty-six，the Roman ruler Julius Caesar made a new calendar.The Julian calendar included an extra day every four years.But there was a problem.The Julian year was just over eleven minutes longer than the cycle of the seasons.In 1582，Pope Gregory the Thirteenth established a new calendar to keep a better recorder of the days.Pole Gregory was the religiousleader of most of Europe.He decided that years that could be divided by four would add a day.However，years that ended in two zeros and that could not be evenly divided by four hundred would not be leap years.For example，the years 1700,1800 and 1900 were not leap years.But the years 1600 and 2000 were leap years.So leap years are years with three hundred sixty-six days，instead of the usual three hundred sixty-five.This extra day is added to the calendar on February twenty-ninth，sometimes known as leap day.People born on leap day may be called “leapings.”They usually celebrate their birthday on February twentyeight or March first.Title: 15.People6.extra months7.Julius Caesar8.every four years9.by four10.came into being/began to exist/was acceptedⅢ.阅读简答It's strange that a man born on Labor Day has had to work so hard to succeed in life.Jacob seems like a normal person.He likes music，art and photography.His parents both got college degrees.He used to go to a beach house in Portland every summer.Heis a big fan of Mexican food.Reading these facts about him may lead to the opinion that he had a great childhood.However，behind all of these is a past that would be terrible for many kids growing up.It started when he was only two years old.His parents divorced and then remarried.Going through elementary school and middle school，he was frightened a lot.This may have led to the worst thing that could have happened to a young man.He developed deep depression.Doing the smart thing，he talked to his parents about his problem.His parents decided that this issue was very serious and Jacob was admitted to West Hills Hospital.He stayed there for two weeks and had his depression diagnosed.Serious insomnia caused the problem.The solution was daily medication.The medication took care of Jacob's depression problem.However，it contained a substance with lithium(锂)．The side effect he suffered from lithium was that he got spoonfuls of sugar and ate it with anything else that was on his plate.This led to a weight gain of 25 pounds while he was on medication.So he decided he had to lose some weight and stop the medication.Now he has lost a big part of the weight and he has managed to solve his problem he had in high school.Now he is a happy human being.Many people would have had a very hard time coming back from depression.Many people probably would have given up their dreams.But Jacob is not like this.He took what was a mess of his life and turned it around to become a great man and a person with a very bright future.1. When was Jacob possibly born according to the passage? (No more than 3 words)答案On Labor Day.2. Why did Jacob suffer from deep depression? (No more than 4 words)答案Because of serious insomnia.3. How did Jacob gain the weight of 25 pounds while on medication? (No more than14 words)答案By eating spoonfuls of sugar with anything else that was on his plate.4. What can we know from Jacob's story? (No more than 10 words)答案He had a hard time but never gave up. 新课标第一网系列资料。
