(山东威海高二期末)
All living organisms are uniquely adapted to the environment in which they live.Scientists are studying the design and the biological processes of these organisms to get ideas for products and technologies.This field of study is called biomimetics.Here are two examples.
ToucanBillsandCarSafety
Toucan usually has enormous bills.Scientists have found that the toucan’s beak is designed to be both strong and light.The
surface is made of keratin,the same material in human fingernails and hair.But the inside of the bill has a foam-like structure and is made up of a network of light,thin pieces of bone.It contains a lot of air,and some areas are hollow,not solid.This design makes the bill hard but very light.
The design of the toucan bill can be used to make cars and planes safer.Studies show that the beak’s structure can absorb high energy impacts very well.Car body panels that mimic toucan bills may offer better protection to motorists involved in crashes.
SharkScalesandSwimsuits
Shark skin may look smooth,but it’s actually rough.Sharks are covered in scales made from the same material as their teeth.Viewed up close,the scales actually look like tiny teeth.These scales protect the shark and help to keep it clean.They are also flexible
and can turn or bend in the water.This movement reduces the waters drag on the shark and helps it to swim quickly.
Scientists discovered that the shortfin mako’s scales vary in size and flexibility over its body.For instance the scales on the sides of the body are tapered—wide at one end and narrow at the other.They can turn up or flatten to adjust to the flow of water around the shark and to reduce drag.
Scientists believe that shark scales can inspire designs for machines that experience drag,such as airplanes.Designers are also getting ideas from shark scales for designing swimwear and coating ship bottoms.

Gitanjali Rao,a Colorado teenager who invented a mobile device to test for lead(铅) in drinking water,was Time’s Kid of the Year for .The magazine announced the award,citing Rao’s ability to apply scientific ideas to real-world problems—and her desire to motivate other kids to take up their own causes.
It’s just the late st recognition for Rao,15,who was named in to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.She won praise in after she responded to the Flint,Mich.,water crisis by creating a device named Tehys,using carbon nanotube(碳纳米管) sensors to detect lead
in water.The Lone Tree,Col o.,native was named America’s Top Young Scientist when she was in the seventh grade.She went on to work with scientists in the water industry to try to get the device on the market.
More recently,Rao has developed a phone and web tool named Kindly,which uses artificial intelligence technology to detect possible early signs of cyberbullying(网络欺凌).“You type in a word or phrase,and it’s able to pick it up if it’s bullying,and it gives you the option to edit it or send it the way it is,” Rao tells Time.“The goa l is not to punish.As a teenager,I know teenagers tend to lash out(殴打) sometimes.Instead,it gives you the chance to rethink what you’re saying so that you know what to do next time around.”
The debut Kid of the Year award comes from a partnership between Time and Nickelodeon.Rao was chosen in part because of the way she has followed up her technical work with efforts to get other young people to work on solving the problems they see.
“My goal has really shifted not only from creating my own devices to solve the world’s problems,but inspiring others to do the same as well.Because,from personal experience,it’s not easy when you don’t see anyone else like you.So I really want to put out that message:If I can do it,you can do it,and anyone can do it.”

Ecuador may have a new tourism jingle (广告歌).But they don’t want anyone to ac tually sing it.Indeed,the country’s latest national park is built on the belief that silence is golden.The South American country has become the first in the world to build a “quiet park” beside the Zabalo River where silence is protected like a natural resource.
There are no transport routes here.Nor residential and commercial developments.You can’t even hear the sound of power lines.
Named as Wilderness Quiet Park,the land is owned by the Cofán people of Ecuador.But hopes are high that this unique space in a world increasingly affected by noise will kickstart (启动) tourism in the region—quiet tourism,that is.
These days,it’s almost impossible to escape the human noise.And it’s a serious effect on the health of animals,including humans.
“Science has made it clear that noise pollution is not just an annoyance,it causes health loss and impacts wildlife’s ability to survive.By recognizing the Zabalo River as the world’s first quiet park,we are paving the way for many more quiet parks around the globe,” says Gord on Hempton,an ecologist and co-founder of Quiet Parks International,an organization which aims at spreading quiet across the globe.
So,what’s it actually like when nature is the only soundtrack?Here’s how Sam Goldman,a journalist,describes
it:“The monkeys roar;insects buzz;and birdsong cackles...”
But the park not only gives nature a chance to find its voice.The people who own the land—the Cofán people—have long regarded themselves as caretakers of the rivers and rainforests in the region but their numbers have decreased to fewer than 2,000.Quiet Parks International will help the Cofan Nation “defend their lands and preserve their culture”.

When almost everyone has a mobile phone,why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline(座机)?
These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile p hone.In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket.Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere,anytime.
Still,55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones,according to a survey(调查).Of those Australians who still have a landline,a third concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket — 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies.I think my home falls into that category.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone.Age is naturally a factor(因素)—only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then,compared to 84 percent of Baby B oomers who’ve perhaps had the same home
number for 50 years.Age isn’t the only factor; I’d say it’s also to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation ilies,like my wife and I,can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member.That said,to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents,to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

文章主要剖析了在几乎人人都有一部手机的澳大利亚,仍然有超过半数的家庭拥有座机背后的原因。

32.What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?
A.Their target users.
B.Their wide popularity.
C.Their major functions.
D.Their complex design.
根据第二段内容可知,在澳大利亚很难找到一个15岁以上还没有手机的人,甚至一些年龄更小的孩子都有手机。

这表明手机在澳大利亚受到广泛欢迎。

故选B项。

33.What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Admit.
B.Argue.
C.Remember.
D.Remark.
根据上文得知,虽然在澳大利亚几乎人人都有手机,但是还有55%的家庭拥有座机。

画线词是指1/3拥有座机的人承认座机没有什么必要。

故选A项。

34.What can we say about Baby Boomers?
A.They like smartphone games.
B.They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.
C.They keep using landline phones.
D.They are attached to their family.
“BabyBoomerswho’veperhapshadthesamehomenumberfor50years.”可知,这一家人或许50年都没有换过座机。

故选C项。

35.What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?
A.It remains a family necessity.
B.It will fall out of use some day.
C.It may increase daily eportant as the gas light.
“Howlonguntiltheygothewayofgasstreetlampsandmorningmilkdeliver ies?”可知,煤气路灯和清晨送奶工都已不存在,因此座机早晚也会过时。

故选B项。

Here are some tips for you to get along with your teachers.
Show respect. 36 You may not always agree with them and you may not always feel like settling down and paying attention in
class,but you do need to show that you can give a basic level of care and respect towards adults.
Learn to listen.Listening is a learnt skill and one that is very important during your high school years. 37 Your eye contact will also help demonstrate your attention.You will also miss out on valuable information and i nstructions if you don’t listen.
38 You will not always understand everything that you see and hear in class.If you are unsure about something or a task that needs to be completed,speak to your teacher about it.Ask the questions.If the teacher is too busy,ask to arrange a suitable time that you can ask the questions you need for further clarification.
Never gossip(传播流言) about your teacher.Spreading gossip means talking about someone behind his or her back. 39 Live by the rule to never say anything abou t someone that you wouldn’t be comfortable saying to one’s face.If you hear a rumour about a teacher,do not pass it on! 40
A.Seek further explanation.
B.Always do what the teachers tell you to do.
C.Show respect for your teachers at all times.
D.It’s really important that you don’t make it personal.
E.It’s all hurtful,no matter how serious you might think.
F.It is also a sign of respect for your teacher when you listen.
G.It would be better to speak to someone else in authority,such as your class teacher.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。

两只大熊猫“大毛”和“二顺”提前结束了在加拿大一家动物园的逗留,于周日抵达成都。

56.their 考查代词。

分析句子结构可知,该空修饰名词stay,所以用形容词性物主代词。

57.Havingspent 考查非谓语动词。

spend和thetwo有逻辑上的主谓关系,而且spend所表示的动作发生在谓语动词moved之前,所以用动词-ing 形式的完成式。

58.which 考查定语从句。

先行词是twincubs,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以用which。

59.On 考查介词。

句意:平均,每只大熊猫每天消耗约40公斤竹子。

onaverage“平均”,首字母大写。

60.consumes 考查动词时态和主谓一致。

描述一个客观的事实,用一般现在时,主语是eachgiantpanda,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。

61.tomeet 考查非谓语动词。

struggletodosth“挣扎着做某事”。

62.weekly 考查形容词。

该空修饰名词短语shipmentsoffreshbamboo,用形容词作定语,故填weekly。

63.the 考查冠词。

此处特指“合适的竹子”,故应用定冠词the。

64.announcement 考查名词。

分析句子结构可知,该空作made的宾语,用名词,前面有不定冠词修饰,用名词单数。

65.is/hasbeenpermitted 考查动词时态和语态。

这里表示主语现在的状态,可以用一般现在时,也可以用现在完成时表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果;“Thezoo”和permit之间是被动关系,用被动语态,故填is/hasbeenpermitted。

Dear Sir,
I’m eager to be an exchange student in your school.
Since we live in a global village,no country can develop on its own;nobody can achieve personal growth by himself or
herself.Therefore,we should learn from each other.In addition,such a learning experience is not only a great chance for me to improve myself,but also a precious opportunity to spread Chinese culture to my British friends.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

(山东德高二期末)
We were three thousand miles away from home on a Random Acts of Kindness and Volunteerism Road Trip.Our funds were running low,so we had two goals today.Firstly,try out our new “Smile!” signs and see how much kindness and joy we could
spread.Secondly,raise a pitiful $20 a piece by doing street performances.Singing,drawing cartoons,storytelling...as long as it is enough for the trip to Portland.
We weren’t sure how people would react to our signs.I nervously rai sed one up and shouted “Hi there!” to a young couple.They looked over,momently confused,then read my sign and broke into smiles.It worked.
Before long,our signs were popular.Strangers stopped to ask us about them.The signs are more than an invitation to
“Smile!”.They’re an excuse to connect with strangers and to remember this world is full of good people.We got so wrapped up in
our “Smile!” project that we forgot our other goal.Before we knew it,the sun was setting,and we had no money for our trip to Portland.
Then we noticed that a blind musician was playing guitar when suddenly a passing crowd kicked over his change jar.Change and cash scattered everywhere.Before we could run over,another man rushed to collect all the money for him.And we met the do-gooder,Jared.“We want to praise you on your good deed,” I said.Jared looked at my signs curiously.We told him about our road trip,which reminded him of something similar he did when he was young.He seemed moved.

Then he said,“Look!I’d like to donate.”
We were astonished.
Thenhesaid,“Look!I’dliketodonate.” We told
him,“No,thanks!We are fine.We’ve collected plenty of money.” We lied.“Please let me donate.It will make me feel like I’m a part of this adventure,” he insisted.And then Jared opened his wallet and pulled out four $20 bills.The money was exactly what we had intended to raise that day.
Wewereastonished.It seemed as if he had known something somehow.Seeing our eiled,“I once did something similar when I was young.I know random acts of kindness mean a lot sometimes.I just hope what I have done can do you a favor.I just hope that you can spread smiles to more people.” Hearing what he said,we were all moved.Indeed,smiles are an excuse to connect with strangers and to
remember this world is full of good people.With the bills in hand,we said goodbye to Jared and continued our way to Portland,smiling.。
