高二英语下学期第二次周练试题
河北省保定市高阳中学学年高二春季版第二次周练英语试题第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AMy mom just bought me a new bike. Since my cousin Mary didn’t have a bike with her, she walked next to me. I thought that Mary would jump on the luggage carrier (行李架) over the back tire when I was riding. Mom knew exactly what I was thinking. “Don’t ride the bike with Mary on the back,” she said. “It’s too dangerous. You could kill yourself. Take turns.”I nodded, but I was thinking I could handle this. A few minutes later, I turned right to a wide road. “Jump on the back,” I told Mary. I rode fast, laughing as the wind blew through our hair. It was exciting, until the handlebar (车把) started shaking. The front tire dropped into a drain (下水道) and I fell off the bike, still holding the handlebar.My face, hands, and knees crashed into the pavement. The pain in my mouth was unbearable, and I tasted blood. I turned towards Mary who was on the ground, holding her knee and crying. Seconds later, it seemed that my mom’s car stopped next to us. I wanted Mom to say, “Oh, my poor sweetheart. Let me hug you and everything will be fine.”However, my mom only said, “What have you done to your face? Vanessa,look at what you’ve done!” Mom wasn’t the gentle “I love you, sweetie” type.Sometimes, I thought Mom had no mercy. But in her own way, she was holding me tighter than I could understand — she was teaching me the lesson I needed. “You did it — deal with it and learn from it. One day, the consequences (后果) will be greater and I won’t be there to help you. Think it out, Vanessa.”1. We can learn from the text that .A. Vanessa fell because she didn’t hold the handlebarB. Vanessa and Mary rode the bike by turnsC. Vanessa was blown down by the heavy windD. Vanessa and Mary were all injured2. In the author’s opinion, her mother .A. was always gentle to herB. encouraged her all the timeC. was cold sometimesD. didn’t care about her at all3. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Vanessa’s mother was strict with her.B. Vanessa understood her mother’s love.C. Vanessa’s mother would leave her.D. Vanessa wasn’t eager for her mom’s hug any more.BCARE London to Paris Cycle ChallengeIn this challenge you’ll cycle from London to Paris in three days, enjoying the beautiful countryside along the way.You will cycle through the peace of rural (乡村的) England to Portsmouth, where you will cross the river by boat to Ouistreham.

Before, women were often left with little support or language barriers which meant medical care assistants could not communicate effectively with them. With local volunteers’ suppo rt, women living in remote areas can benefit from health services.What is included on the London to Paris Cycle Challenge?Guides, medicine and support staffThree nights’ accommodationMeals during the challenge, including a celebration meal on the final night in ParisBoat from Portsmouth to OuistrehamReturn from Paris to LondonThe minimum amount of the money you’ll have to collect for this challenge is £1,350, which includes your registration (注册) fee.

In 1985, two days before he died, he gave that ticket to Cave —ticket number 00001. “It created a fascination (酷爱) with the bridge that I have to this day,” says Cave. And it started him on a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge first.Cave came up with a simple but daring idea — lease (租用) the bridge from the government and allow ordinary people to climb Australia’s greatest icon. “I thought it would take two years,” says Cave, 63. “What appeared like a simple job turned into some very complex activities. But in business, you just have to keep going —it’s about having self-belief.” Indeed, it took him nine years and ten months to convince t he NSW government to allow his dream to be a reality. “Six years were wasted dealing with some very restrictive officials,” says Cave. They threw difficulty after difficulty in his path with doubts over the safety of the climbers and the motorists below — the list went on and on.Through it all, Cave held the ticket tightly. It was a constant reminder of why, to Cave, this fight wasworth winning. Finally, in 1995, came the breakthrough (突破) he’d worked for — a letter arrived from WorkCover, the state’s oc cupational health and safety insurer, backing his idea.Since opening on October 1, 1998, over 1.8 million people have climbed the 1,439 steps to the top of the bridge, making BridgeClimb a $50-million-a-year success and a major international tourist attraction.8. Cave at first thought his dream .A. was a hard taskB. was easy to come trueC. would get support from the governmentD. would become some complex activities9. What was the restrictive officials’ attitude towards Cave’s id ea?A. Cautious.B. Approving.C. Doubtful.D. Enthusiastic.10. What inspired Cave to fight for his dream during the hard situation?A. WorkCover.B. Harbour Bridge.C. BridgeClimb.D. Ticket 00001.11. The text mainly tells us that .A. not every dream in our life is very easy to come trueB. you should have self-belief even faced with great difficultyC. family members always give you the inspiration for successD. life seems a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge firstDA habitat is a natural area where wildlife lives undisturbed. Most animals and plants have become endangered not because they have been killed on purpose but because their habitats are being destroyed.Human activities have changed or destroyed habitats for thousands of years. The natural habitats in almost every country in the world have been affected in some way. Let us take Britain as an example. Nowadays most of the British countryside consists of fields of grass grown for cattle and sheep or crops for humans. If you had lived about a thousand years ago, the countryside would have looked very different for most of Britain was covered with forest.Now there are only small areas of woodland across the country, one of the largest areas being the New Forest in Hampshire. Throughout the centuries humans have steadily (持续地) cut down the trees to make room for the human population which has increased greatly particularly during the past 200 years or so. The trees have been replaced by houses, factories, schools, roads, farmland etc. Hedgerows (灌木篱笆) which were planted by humans as boundaries (边界) around fields have replaced woodlands.As you may imagine, the great loss of habitats has affected the wildlife that lives in them. Large animals such as the Brown Bear and the Auroch became extinct in Britain during the 10th century mainly due to destruction (粉碎) of their forest habitats. Other British species of animals and plants have become extinct during the last few hundred years and many more are endangered today. Although many organizations are working to protect wildlife, natural habitats are still being destroyed.12. The text mainly tells us .A. what a habitat isB. how to protect wildlifeC. habitat destruction makes animals endangeredD. how to prevent the environment from being destroyed13. According to the text, animals are endangered mainly because .A. people kill wild animals on purposeB. the environment is seriously pollutedC. humans haven’t worked to protect themD. the human population has increased greatly14. We can learn from the text that .A. the New Forest is the largest woodland in the worldB. the Brown Bear has been extinct for many years in BritainC. humans destroyed natural habitats mainly by growing cropsD. humans planted hedgerows to make home for cattle and sheep15. Which of the following may the writer agree with?A. Setting up reserves is the best way to protect animals.B. We can hardly stop animals from being endangered.C. Things will become better for wild animals in Britain.D. Human activities began to affect wildlife 200 years ago.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）按照短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

On Tuesday 29 MayBI first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film - it wanted somebody as well known as Paul - he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both camefrom a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft（技艺）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other - but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core（核心）of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back - he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital.He and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk about it.Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.4.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?A.Paul Newman wanted it.B.The studio powers didn’t like his agent.C.He wasn’t famous enough.D.The director recommended s omeone else.5.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A.They were of the same age.B.They worked in the same theater.C.They were both good actors.D.They have similar characteristic.6.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?A.Their belief.B.Their care for children.C.Their success.D.Their support for each other.7.What is the author’s purpose in writing the test?A.To show his love of films.B.To remember a friend.C.To introduce a new movie.D.To share his acting experience.CTerrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle-named the Transition – has two seats，four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000.And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal A viation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower thanthose pilots of larger planes Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.8. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The basic data of the Transition.B. The advantages of flying cars.C. The potential market for flying cars. C. The designers of the Transition.9. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?A. It causes traffic jams.B. It is difficult to operate.C. It is very expensive.D. It bums too much fuel.10. What is the governm ent’s attitude to the development of the flying car?A. CautiousB. Favorable.C. Ambiguous.D. Disapproving.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Flying Car at Auto ShowB. The Transition’s Fist Fl ightC.Pilots’Dream Coming TrueD. Flying Car Closer to RealityDWhen a leafy plant is under attack ，it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’s a plant’s way of crying out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.Once they arrive,the tables are turned .The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it was n’t a true, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.12. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietlyD. It sends out certain chemicals.13. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.14.Scientists find from their studies that plants can .A.predict natural disastersB.protect themselves against insectsC.talk to one another intentionallyD.help their neighbors when necessary15.what can we infer from the last paragraph?A.The word is changing faster than ever.B.People have stronger senses than beforeC.The world is more complex than it seemsD.People in Darwin’s time were mo re imaginative.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。

Finally his leg would have to be amputated（截）below the knee.Such a setback could have easily ended the career of a less tough person, but Ruggiero ,who has been dancing since he was five, now puts the experience into his performance. His show, "TheOne-Legged Song and Dance Man: Volume 3",explains how he returned to dance just 18 months after the amputation. His dance now relies on the use of a peg leg(假肢),he explains. The secret to his surprising success, he says, was being a "stubborn" patient who refused to give up on his dance and performing studies, despite the advice of his doctor. "It was a real setback, but after it was all over, I said, 'You know what? I need to pick up rightwhere I left off and continue my career, "' Ruggiero said.Ruggiero has come to view his peg leg as an instrument. "Tap dancers-they're always callingthemselves musicians, and their feet are their instrument, " he said. Noting that many audience members will never have seen a one-legged dancer before coming to his show, Ruggiero says he won't shy away from the physical "weakness" his performance shows because of hiscondition."A lot of people have come up to me, and they always say, 'You're such a role model and aninspiration, ' "he said. "I'm honored when people say that, of course, but I'm just trying to get on with my life."21. What makes Ruggiero's new show unusual?A. One-legged dance.B. His own artworks.C. The use of instrument.D. Songs of pop standard.22. According to the passage, it is true thatA. Ruggiero is a tough person with a strong willB. the setback has ended Ruggiero's dance careerC. Ruggiero is dancing relying on others' supportD. his doctor agreed he kept on dancing and studying23. When audience attend his performance, they may noticeA. Ruggiero plays piano, sings and dancesB. Ruggiero is a dancer with the help of a peg legC. there are many tap dancers in the performanceD. Ruggiero pretends to be a physically normal person24. What's the author's attitude to Evan?A. WorryB. SympathyC. EncouragementD. PityBFour Must-See Route 66( 66号公路) AttractionsThe United States is full of odd roadside attractions. Route 66 is home to some of the oldest and most known attractions of them all. Here are four attractions you should see along the Mother Road:1. Paul Bunyan and a Hot DogRoute 66 travelers pass by many fiberglass giants(巨人 ) right along the road. These giants were a popular form of advertising in the 1960s. Many of them stood in front of service stations. They held carparts, such as mufflers. The collection of Route 66 giants became known as "Muffler Men". Businesses hoped the strange statues would get travelers' attention.The first fiberglass giant was a "Paul Bunyan" figure, built in the early 1960s. It's said that Paul Bunyan is a famous wood worker.2. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica RayCrown Candy Kitchen has been serving Route 66 travelers from the very beginning. It is just a few short shop opened more than 100 years ago, and has been making candies and meals ever since.On weekends, people sometimes wait in line for a table at Crown Candy for over an hour. Luckily there is free entertainment right outside. Jamaica Ray, a local folk artist, creates unusual sculptures.3. The World's Largest Rocking ChairFanning, Missouri, is home to one of the strangest Route 66 attractions. Just off the road sits an almost 13-meter-tall rocking chair.The structure was completed in 2008 0n the first of April, or April Fool's Day.At one time the chair actually rocked. But officials decided it had to be still to be safe for ever. People are not permitted to climb the chair. We think, however, that it probably happens once in a while when no one is watching.4. Big Texan's Steak ChallengeFew places better represent the common expression "Everything's Bigger in Texas" than the Big Texan Steak Ranch. Since 1960,it has appealed to travelers with big appetites and a big love of beef.It is hard to miss the huge yellow restaurant-or the giant cow statue that sits out front. The cow advertises Big Texan's special deal, and what has made this steak ranch famou s: a "free" 72-ounce(英两 ) or 2-kilogram steak. There is one trick: the steak is only free if you can eat the entire thing in one hour.A special table is in the middle of the restaurant for the daring diners who accept the challenge. Since 1990,more than 9,000 diners have eaten the entire 2-kilogram steak.25.What was considered as "Muffler Men"?A. Hot DogB. Jamaica RayC. Car partsD. Paul Bunyan26.Where will you maybe wait in line on weekends?A. Paul Bunyan and a Hot Dog.B. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica Ray.C. The World's Largest Rocking Chair.D. Big Texan's Steak Challenge.27. If you visit The World's Largest Rocking Chair, you have toA. get there in AprilB. climb up and rock itC. see it 13 meters awayD. travel to Fanning, Missouri28. What is Big Texan's Steak Challenge?A. The giant cow statue sits out of the huge ran ch.B. Diners eat up the entire 72-ounce or 2-kilogram steak.C. The Big Texan Steak Ranch is the biggest restaurant in Texas.D. The daring diners sit around at a special table in the restaurant.CWorld Book Day is a celebration of all things wonderful about books for all ages, with author events, school fancy-dress parades（游行）and a ￡1 book token（购书券）given to all school children under 18. It is a yearly event on 23rd April, organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization ( UNESCO ), to promote reading.In the Uni ted Kingdom, the day is recognized on the first Thursday in March. On 3rd March 2016 children of all ages in the U K will come together to appreciate reading. Sometimes, reading a modern novel can be tough ( Booker Prize winner The Luminaries runs to 832 pages! ), especially if reading is not your strong suit. In fact, one in six people in the UK never pick up a book because they’ve experienced difficulties or are out of the habit of reading for pleasure.The Galaxy Quick Reads series are designed to introduce reluctant readers to bestselling short funny novels, which bring the joy of reading without demanding hours of concentrated time. They cover a range of subjects, from romance to comedy.Jojo Moyes’s Paris For One is a romantic adventure in which 26-year-old Nell books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy, neglectful boyfrien d. When he fails to turn up, she is alone in the city. That is, until she meets Fabien, who shows her the charms of the Frenchc apital -- in more ways than one.Adele Geras’s moving story Out In The Dark was set in World War I, in which young Rob came back from the battlefields. Determined to find the officer’s w idow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him, he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up.Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat, who had a terrible fight with his best friend, Joe, ten years ago -- but now hears that Joe is dead, and he must attend his funeral. But Joe is not going quietly that very night -- he’s lying in his coffin being very chatt y indeed.29.What is the main aim of the World Book Day?A. To promote book selling.B. To win authors fame.C. To encourage reading.D. To perfect education.30. If you lack confidence in your reading skills, you will probably avoid reading _____.A. Dead Man TalkingB. Paris For OneC. The LuminariesD. Out In The Dark31.What else do you expect the author to introduce?A. A romance.B. A moving story.C. A horror story.D. A comedy.32.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TURE?A. The Luminaries tells a story of a Booker Prize winner.B. Paris For One tells a story of Nell and Fabien.C. Out In The Dark is a story during World WarⅡ.D Dead Man Talking is a story of Pat and his talkative friend.DTry rubbing (摩擦 ) the tip of your finger backwards and forwards very quickly on your coat or a blanket. It should become hot. In cold weather we sometimes rub our hands together to make them warm. The rubbing of two together which causes heat is called "friction"(摩擦力). In the same way, people who lived in caves rubbed a piece of wood shaped like a pencil on another piece of wood with dried leaves or grass packed nearby. The heat set the leaves or grass alight. This was a difficult way of making fire. Better ways were found by using flint(火石),but it was not until 1827 that the first matches were made in England. Chemists made up a mixture and put it on an end of a stick or match. The mixture contained a small amount of phosphorous (磷),a chemical that bursts into flame when heated slightly. The other chemicals then caught fire and burned less fiercely until the wood was alight. By rubbing the end of the match, on sandpaper, the friction easily set the phosphorous alight. These first matches could also be struck on other rough surfaces, including the leather sole(底)of a shoe.At the time, everyone thought this was a wonderful invention. Unfortunately accidents happened. A whole box of matches would suddenly catch fire if it was heated. Imagine this happening to someone warming them selves by a fire with a box of matches in his or her pocket! Even loose matches in a handbag or pocket could rub together and catch fire.What was needed was a match that would only light if struck on a special surface. In 1852,thesafety match was invented in Sweden. No phosphorous was used in the match head-it was put on the outside of the matchbox instead. This made it impossible for the match to light unless it was rubbed along the box on the special surface which contained sandpaper mixed with a little phosphorous.33.Why did people use dried leaves or grass to pack another piece of wood?A. The leaves or grass is easy to be alight.B. The leaves or grass covered the wood well.C. The leaves or grass help the air cause heat.D. The leaves or grass acted as the role of match.34.What did the chemists make the match of in 1827?A. Leather sole, sandpaper and leaves.B. Wood, leather sole and sandpaper.C. Phosphorous, wood and sandpaper.D. Phosphorous , sandpaper and flint.35. If we used the safety match, we could seeA. loose matches could catch fire fiercelyB. phosphorous wasn't needed inside matchboxesC. there were matches and sandpaper in matchboxesD. the special surface containing sandpaper and phosphorous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。

高二英语下学期第二周周测试题
高二英语下学期第二周周测试题一、制卷人：歐陽文化、歐陽理複；制卷時間：二O二二年二月七日二、阅读理解 (每一小题2分〕AStephen Hawking, a world famous British physicist, also wrote a children’s book with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be “a bit like Ha rry Potter〞but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe,〞 said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong over 10 years ago.Hawking, is probably the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe. “My goal is simple,〞 Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all.〞Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking.Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer.“I have had the disease for most of my life,〞Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.〞Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics.1.In the first paragraph, the book that Stephen Hawking wrote is_____.A.the same as Harry PotterB.is quite different from Harry Potter.C.about the magicD.about science2.From the text we can learn _____.A.Hawking is more famous than EinsteinB.Hawking is less famous than EinsteinC.Both Hawking and Einstein are very famousD.Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous3.What does the underlined pronoun “It〞 in the second paragraph stand for?A.The goal.B.The magic.C.The universe.D.The book.4.According to the text, which of the following statements is the fact?A.Hawking has received many awards and prizes except the Albert Einstein Award.B.The illness keeps him from moving and talking.C.He communicates with others by speaking.D.The illness stopped him from being successful.BIn the far future, robots live on Earth as humans but the population of humans is smaller than a thousand. This is a story of a repair robot R-62.One day, a car came to the repair factory and a human stepped out of the car.“Wow, a human! I have never seen a real one,〞 said R-62.“Humans are quite clever. They’re able to do any action they want to. They’re even able to harm other human beings or organize wars, which they have been doing a lot in the history. Also they don’t even have to follow orders if they don’t want to,〞 said another robot T-59 quietly to R-62.“How terrible it is! And almost all robots seem afraid of him and don’t look at him directly,〞 said R-62.The human then sat down and asked if there had been any problems in the last 10 years and he only got a quick answer, “No, sir.〞Then suddenly, R-62 said loudly, “I have one question for you.〞The human said, “Yes〞, a bit unhappy for not getting “sir〞.“Why do human create so many robots?〞 asked R-62.Silence followed the q uestion and he then said, “I don’t need to answer questions from robots!〞 He then went into his car and drove away quickly.“I really don't understand why humans replaced themselves with robots,〞asked R-62.“Because they thought that robots were more advanced than humans. They created us to support themselves,〞 answered T-59.“But there are so few humans on Earth. What they should do is to take away the robots or at least make them stop doing the work which humans are supposed to do,〞 said R-62.“I agree. But we can do nothing about it. And now we have to finish repairing this car,〞 said T-59.“All right, let’s continue.〞5.In T-59’s opinion, humans are_____.A.smartB.politeC.dangerousD.stupid6.According to the text, R-62_____.A.dared not look at the human directlyB.was not friendly to the humanC.decided to give up its jobD.hope to live on Earth7.What can we learn from the story?A.R-62 doesn’t know what human beings look like.B.R-62 and T-59 are brothers and do different jobs.C.T-59 doesn’t want to support human beings.D.T-59 knows a lot about human beings.8.What’s R-62’s attitude towards humans’ creating robots?A.Frightened.B.Excited.C.Doubtful.D.Supportive.CPreparing Cities for Robot CarsThe possibility of self-driving robot cars has often seemed like a futurist’s dream, years away from materializing in the real world. Well, the future is apparently now. The California Department of Motor Vehicles began giving permitsin April for companies to test truly self-driving cars on public roads. The state also cleared the way for companies to sell or rent out self-driving cars, and for companies to operate driverless taxi services. California, it should be noted, isn’t leading the way here. Companies have been t esting their vehicles in cities across the country. It’s hard to predict when driverless cars will be everywhere on our roads. But however long it takes, the technology has the potential to change our transportation systems and our cities, for better or for worse, depending on how the transformation is regulated.While much of the debate so far has been focused on the safety of driverless cars(and rightfully so), policymakers also should be talking about how self-driving vehicles can help reduce traffic jams, cut emissions(排放) and offer more convenient, affordable mobility options. The arrival of driverless vehicles is a chance to make sure that those vehicles are environmentally friendly and more shared.Do we want to copy —or even worsen —the traffic of today with driverless cars? Imagine a future where most adults own individual self-driving vehicles. They tolerate long, slow journeys to and from work on packed highways because they can work, entertain themselves or sleep on the ride, which encourages urban spread. They take their driverless car to an appointment and set the empty vehicle to circle the building to avoid paying for parking. Instead of walking a few blocks to pick up a child or the dry cleaning, they send the self-driving minibus. The convenienceeven leads fewer people to take public transport —an unwelcome side effect researchers have already found in ride-hailing(叫车) services.A study from the University of California at Davis suggested that replacing petrol-powered private cars worldwide with electric, self-driving and shared systems could reduce carbon emissions from transportation 80% and cut the cost of transportation infrastructure(根底设施) and operations 40% by 2050. Fewer emissions and cheaper travel sound pretty appealing. The first commercially available driverless cars will almost certainly be fielded by ride-hailing services, considering the cost of self-driving technology as well as liability and maintenance issues(责任与维护问题). But driverless car ownership could increase as the prices drop and more people become comfortable with the technology.Policymakers should start thinking now about how to make sure the appearance of driverless vehicles doesn’t extend the worst aspects of the car-controlled transportation system we have today. The coming technological advancement presents a chance for cities and states to develop transportation systems designed to move more people, and more affordably. The car of the future is coming. We just have to plan for it.9.According to the author, attention should be paid to how driverless cars can __________.A.help deal with transportation-related problemsB.provide better services to customersC.cause damage to our environmentD.make some people lose jobs10.As for driverless cars, wha t is the author’s major concern?A.Safety.B.Side effects.C.Affordability.D.Management.11.What is the author’s attitude to the future of self-driving cars?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Sympathetic.DPeople who increased the number of times they chewed their food before swallowing ate less each meal, according to a new study.Slow eaters tend to be slimmer. Before the study, the researchers didn’t know whether asking people to chew more would change the amount of food they ate. But they found meal sizes became smaller whenadults chewed more before swallowing--- whether they were slim, normal-weight, overweight or obese.“The study proves the benefits of taking time to chew food well,〞 said dietitian Brown Giggs.The participants were asked to eat five pizza rolls and count the number of times they chewed each roll. Researchers did not tell them what exactly was being tested in the study. 47 people went on to finish the study. 10 were slim, 10 were normal-weight, 27 were overweight. Those participants attended three weekly lunchtime test periods. Each day, researchers gave them 60 pizza rolls and told them to eat until they were full. Depending on the period, researchers asked people to chew every bite the same number of times as at their test visit, 50% more or twice as many times.Slim participants ate more slowly than normal-weight and overweight participants. Overall, people spent more time eating when they increased the number of times they chewed. The participants rated their appetite ( 食欲) the same after each meal even though slower chewing reduced how much they ate.Researchers noted that the study was conducted under lab conditions, so it's not clear whether it would adapt to normal life. The researchers are now looking to see whether how fast people eat, for example, influences how much they eat. “It takes about 20 minutes for the brain to signal your stomach that you re full,〞 BrownRiggs said. “Fast eaters can eat a large amount of food within that 20-minute period causing more calories, which can lead to being overweight or obesity.〞12.What does the passage tell us?A.Slim people should take time to chew food well.B.People should eat slowly if they want to be slim.C.The amount of food people eat depends on the times they chew it.D.People’s appetite is deeply influenced by the times they chew the food.13.In the study, participants were told to________.A.take more calories from the pizza rollsB.eat five portions of pizza rolls every dayC.understand the purpose of the testD.control the times they chewed the pizza rolls14.What can we infer from the last but one paragraph?A.The normal-weight ones ate the most slowly among the participants.B.The longer time a person eats for, the more times he chewsC.A person’s eating speed doesn’t affect his appetite for foodD.The quantity of food a person takes has something to do with his appetite15.Participants in the study reduced their food amount probably because they _______.A.didn’t like eating food containing lots of cal oriesB.had less space in their stomach to contain too much foodC.had enough time to receive the signal of being full from their brainD.Were not used to eating food in the lab conditions三、七选五〔每一小题2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。

高中英语：高二年级周考(2)
高二年级英语周考第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）第一节（共10小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分）AGetting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal. But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.21. What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?A. American kids’ sleeping habits.B. Teenagers’ sleep-related diseases.C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D. Learning problems and lack of sleep.22. How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?A. 7 hours.B. 8 hours.C. 10 hours.D. 18 hours.23. Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.B. They tend to do things that excite them.C. They follow their parents’ examples.D. They don’t need to go to school early.BThe Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen is offering a free meal to man guest who is able to produce electricity for the hotel on an exercise bike linked to a generator(发电机). The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity – roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel.The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guest staying at thehotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard, hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors are business people who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to get a free meal, but generally I don’t think people will take advantage of our programme.”Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition an 36% of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen.dk. US environmental website recently voted Copenhagen the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as symbol of the hotel’s green profile(形象).”If successful, the electric bicycle meal programme will be spread to all Crowne Plaza hotels in the UK, the hotel said in a statement.24. What is the main purpose of the free meal programme?A. To promote the hotel’s green concept.B. To make the city known to the world.C. To attract people to the hotel restaurant.D. To get guests to stay longer at the hotel.25. How can a participant get a free meal?A. By becoming a professional cyclist.B. By cycling to produce some electricity.C. By linking a smart phone to a bicycle.D. By monitoring his or her carbon footprint.26. Who are most likely to enter for the programme?A. The poor local people.B. The environment activists.C. Health-conscious hotel guest.D. Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.27. According to paragraph 3, Copenhagen has one of the world’s ________.A. best chain hotelsB. greenest natural environmentsC. longest bike pathsD. highest rates of people cycling to workCDigital technology-email and smart phones especially-have vastly improved workers’ ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses are doubtful about remote working. Half of the workers say their boss doesn’t accept it, and only 35 percent say it’s tolerated.Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced(加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say they have watched TV or a movie while “working”remotely, while 35 percent have done housework, and 28 percent have cooked dinner.It is true, however, that working at home makes people much more efficient(高效的), because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done. It’s much faster, for example, to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-word rush.The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven’t come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker.More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value. Six-four percent of those survey participants who haven’t worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home. Under such circumstances, smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough flexibility to manage their time efficiently.28. Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working?A. They fear losing control of their workers.B. They want to stick to their routine practice.C. They have little trust in modern technology.D. They are used to face-to-face communication.29. What seems to be most workers’ attitude toward remote working?A. Doubtful.B. FavorableC. ReservedD. Disapproving.30. What does the author suggest smart firms do?A. Shorten their office hours.B.

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校高二英语下学期周考试题（二）第I卷第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分）略笫二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，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。
AIn his new show, Evan Ruggiero plays guitar, sings pop standards and shows everybody his fine footwork. What makes all of these especially unusual is that Ruggiero,24,has only one leg.When he was a 19-year-old musical theater student at New Jersey's Montclair State University, Ruggiero had a rare bone cancer in his right leg. Finally his leg would have to be amputated（截）below the knee. Such a setback could have easily ended the career of a less tough person, but Ruggiero ,who has been dancing since he was five, now puts the experience into his performance. His show, "TheOne-Legged Song and Dance Man: Volume 3",explains how he returned to dance just 18 months after the amputation. His dance now relies on the use of a peg leg(假肢),he explains.The secret to his surprising success, he says, was being a "stubborn" patient who refused to give up on his dance and performing studies, despite the advice of his doctor."It was a real setback, but after it was all over, I said, 'You know what? I need to pick up rightwhere I left off and continue my career, "' Ruggiero said.Ruggiero has come to view his peg leg as an instrument. "Tap dancers-they're always callingthemselves musicians, and their feet are their instrument, " he said. Noting that many audience members will never have seen a one-legged dancer before coming to his show, Ruggiero says he won't shy away from the physical "weakness" his performance shows because of his condition. "A lot of people have come up to me, and they always say, 'You're such a role model and aninspiration, ' "he said. "I'm honored when people say that, of course, but I'm just trying to get on with my life."21. What makes Ruggiero's new show unusual?A. One-legged dance.B. His own artworks.C. The use of instrument.D. Songs of pop standard.22. According to the passage, it is true thatA. Ruggiero is a tough person with a strong willB. the setback has ended Ruggiero's dance careerC. Ruggiero is dancing relying on others' supportD. his doctor agreed he kept on dancing and studying23. When audience attend his performance, they may noticeA. Ruggiero plays piano, sings and dancesB. Ruggiero is a dancer with the help of a peg legC. there are many tap dancers in the performanceD. Ruggiero pretends to be a physically normal person24. What's the author's attitude to Evan?A. WorryB. SympathyC. EncouragementD. PityBFour Must-See Route 66( 66号公路) AttractionsThe United States is full of odd roadside attractions. Route 66 is home to some of the oldest and most known attractions of them all. Here are four attractions you should see along the Mother Road:1. Paul Bunyan and a Hot DogRoute 66 travelers pass by many fiberglass giants(巨人 ) right along the road. These giants were a popular form of advertising in the 1960s. Many of them stood in front of service stations. They held carparts, such as mufflers. The collection of Route 66 giants became known as "Muffler Men". Businesses hoped the strange statues would get travelers' attention. The first fiberglass giant was a "Paul Bunyan" figure, built in the early 1960s. It's said that Paul Bunyan is a famous wood worker.2. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica RayCrown Candy Kitchen has been serving Route 66 travelers from the very beginning. It is just a few short shop opened more than 100 years ago, and has been making candies and meals ever since.On weekends, people sometimes wait in line for a table at Crown Candy for over an hour. Luckily there is free entertainment right outside. Jamaica Ray, a local folk artist, creates unusual sculptures.3. The World's Largest Rocking ChairFanning, Missouri, is home to one of the strangest Route 66 attractions. Just off the road sits an almost 13-meter-tall rocking chair.The structure was completed in 2008 0n the first of April, or April Fool's Day.At one time the chair actually rocked. But officials decided it had to be still to be safe for ever. People are not permitted to climb the chair. We think, however, that it probably happens once in a while when no one is watching.4. Big Texan's Steak ChallengeFew places better represent the common expression "Everything's Bigger in Texas" than the Big Texan Steak Ranch. Since 1960,it hasappealed to travelers with big appetites and a big love of beef.It is hard to miss the huge yellow restaurant-or the giant cow statue that sits out front. The cow advertises Big Texan's special deal, and what has made this steak ranch famous: a "free" 72-ounce(英两 ) or2-kilogram steak. There is one trick: the steak is only free if you can eat the entire thing in one hour.A special table is in the middle of the restaurant for the daring diners who accept the challenge. Since 1990,more than 9,000 diners have eaten the entire 2-kilogram steak.25.What was considered as "Muffler Men"?A. Hot DogB. Jamaica RayC. Car partsD. Paul Bunyan26.Where will you maybe wait in line on weekends?A. Paul Bunyan and a Hot Dog.B. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica Ray.C. The World's Largest Rocking Chair.D. Big Texan's Steak Challenge.27. If you visit The World's Largest Rocking Chair, you have toA. get there in AprilB. climb up and rock itC. see it 13 meters awayD. travel to Fanning, Missouri28. What is Big Texan's Steak Challenge? A. The giant cow statue sits out of the huge ranch.B. Diners eat up the entire 72-ounce or 2-kilogram steak.C. The Big Texan Steak Ranch is the biggest restaurant in Texas.D. The daring diners sit around at a special table in the restaurant. CWorld Book Day is a celebration of all things wonderful about books for all ages, with author events, school fancy-dress parades（）and a ￡1 book token（购书券）given to all school children under 18. It is a yearly event on 23rd April, organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization ( UNESCO ), to promote reading.In the United Kingdom, the day is recognized on the first Thursday in March. On 3rd March 2016 children of all ages in the UK will come together to appreciate reading. Sometimes, reading a modern novel can be tough ( Booker Prize winner The Luminaries runs to 832 pages! ), especially if reading is not your strong suit. In fact, one in six people in the UK never pick up a book because they’ve experienced difficulties or are out of the habit of reading for pleasure.The Galaxy Quick Reads series are designed to introduce reluctant readers to bestselling short funny novels, which bring the joy of reading without demanding hours of concentrated time. They cover a range of subjects, from romance to comedy.Jojo Moyes’s Paris For One is a romantic adventure in which26-year-old Nell books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy, neglectful boyfriend. When he fails to turn up, she is alone in the city. That is, until she meets Fabien, who shows her the charms of the French capital -- in more ways than one.Adele Geras’s moving story Out In The Dark was set in World War I, in which young Rob came back from the battlefields. Determined to find the officer’s w idow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him, he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up.Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat, who had a terrible fight with his best friend, Joe, ten years ago -- but now hears that Joe is dead, and he must attend his funeral. But Joe is not going quietly that very night -- he’s lying in his coffin being very chatty indeed.29.What is the main aim of the World Book Day?A. To promote book selling.B. To win authors fame.C. To encourage reading.D. To perfect education.30. If you lack confidence in your reading skills, you will probably avoid reading _____.A. Dead Man TalkingB. Paris For OneC. The LuminariesD. Out In The Dark31.What else do you expect the author to introduce?A. A romance.B. A moving story.C. A horror story.D. A comedy.32.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TURE?A. The Luminaries tells a story of a Booker Prize winner.B. Paris For One tells a story of Nell and Fabien.C. Out In The Dark is a story during World WarⅡ.D Dead Man Talking is a story of Pat and his talkative friend.DTry rubbing (摩擦 ) the tip of your finger backwards and forwards very quickly on your coat or a blanket. It should become hot. In cold weather we sometimes rub our hands together to make them warm. The rubbing of two together which causes heat is called "friction"(摩擦力). In the same way, people who lived in caves rubbed a piece of wood shaped like a pencil on another piece of wood with dried leaves or grass packed nearby. The heat set the leaves or grass alight. This was a difficult way of making fire. Better ways were found by using flint(火石),but it was not until 1827 that the first matches were made in England.Chemists made up a mixture and put it on an end of a stick or match. The mixture contained a small amount of phosphorous (磷),a chemical that bursts into flame when heated slightly. The other chemicals then caught fire and burned less fiercely until the wood was alight. By rubbing the end of the match, on sandpaper, the friction easily set thephosphorous alight. These first matches could also be struck on other rough surfaces, including the leather sole(底)of a shoe.At the time, everyone thought this was a wonderful invention. Unfortunately accidents happened. A whole box of matches would suddenly catch fire if it was heated. Imagine this happening to someone warming themselves by a fire with a box of matches in his or her pocket! Even loose matches in a handbag or pocket could rub together and catch fire. What was needed was a match that would only light if struck on a special surface. In 1852,thesafety match was invented in Sweden. No phosphorous was used in the match head-it was put on the outside of the matchbox instead. This made it impossible for the match to light unless it was rubbed along the box on the special surface which contained sandpaper mixed with a little phosphorous.33.Why did people use dried leaves or grass to pack another piece of wood?A. The leaves or grass is easy to be alight.B. The leaves or grass covered the wood well.C. The leaves or grass help the air cause heat.D. The leaves or grass acted as the role of match.34.What did the chemists make the match of in 1827?A. Leather sole, sandpaper and leaves.B. Wood, leather sole and sandpaper.C. Phosphorous, wood and sandpaper.D. Phosphorous , sandpaper and flint.35. If we used the safety match, we could seeA. loose matches could catch fire fiercelyB. phosphorous wasn't needed inside matchboxesC. there were matches and sandpaper in matchboxesD. the special surface containing sandpaper and phosphorous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。

高二英语下学期第二次周考试题 2
淇滨高中2021——2021学年下学期高二年级制卷人：歐陽文化、歐陽理複；制卷時間：二O二二年二月七日英语4月周考试卷第二局部阅读理解〔一共两节，满分是40分〕第一节〔一共15小题;每一小题2分，满分是30分〕阅读以下短文，从每一小题所给的四个选项〔A 、B 、C 和 D 〕中，选出最佳选项，并在题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI passed all the other courses〔课程〕 that I took at my university, but I could have never passed botany〔植物学〕. This was because all botany students had to spend several hours a week in a laboratory〔实验室〕 looking through a microscope〔显微镜〕 at plant cells, and I could never once see a cell through a microscope. This used to make my professor angry. He would wander around〔彷徨〕 the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the structure〔构造〕 of flower cells, until he came to me. I would just be standing there. “I can’t see anything,〞 I would say. He would begin patiently enough, explaining how anybody can see through a microscope, but he would always end up angrily, claiming that I could see through a microscope but just pretended〔假装〕that I couldn’t. “It takes away from〔减损〕 the beauty of flowers anyway.〞I used to tell him. “Weare not concerned with beauty in this course,〞he would say. “We are concerned with the structure of flowers.〞“Well,〞I’d say. “I can’t see anything.〞“Try it just once again,〞he’d say, and I would put my eye to the microscope and see nothing at all, except now and again〔时而〕 something unclear and milky〔混浊不清的〕. “You were supposed to〔应该〕 see a clear, moving plant cells shaped like clocks.〞“I see what looks like a lot of milk.〞 I would tell him. This, he claimed, was the result of my not having adjusted the microscope properly, so he would readjust it for me, or rather, for himself. And I would look again and see milk.I failed to pass botany that year, and had to wait a year and try again, or I couldn’t graduate. T he next term the same professor was eager to explain cell-structure again to his classes. “Well,〞he said to me, happily, “we’re going to see cells this time, aren’t we?〞“Yes, sir,〞 I said. Students to the right of me and to the left of me and in front of me were seeing cells; what’s more, they were. Of course, I didn’t see anything.So the professor and I tried with every adjustment〔调整〕 of the microscope known to man. With only once did I see anything but blackness or the familiar milk, and that time I saw, to my pleasure and amazement, something like stars. These I hurriedly drew. The professor, noting〔注意到〕 my activity, came to me, a smile on his lips〔嘴唇〕 and his eyebrows〔眉毛〕 high in hope. He looked at my cell drawing. “What’s that?〞he asked. “That’s wha t I saw,〞I said. “You didn’t, you didn’t, you didn’t!〞 he screamed〔尖叫〕, losing control of himself immediately, and he bent over〔弯腰〕 and looked into the microscope. He raised his head suddenly. “That’s your eye!〞he shouted. “You’ve adjusted the microscope so that itreflects〔反射〕! You’ve drawn your eye! You were always not able to adjust the microscope properly!〞21. Why couldn’t the writer see the flower cells through the microscope? .A. Because he had poor eyesight.B. Because the microscope didn’t work properly.C. Because he was not able to adjust the microscope properly.D. Because he was just playing jokes on his professor by pretending not to have seen it.22. What does the writer mean by “his eyebrows high in hope〞 in the last paragraph?A. His professor hoped he could perform his task with attention〔认真地〕.B. His professor expected him to have seen the cells and drawn the picture of them.C. His professor wished him to learn how to draw pictures.D. His professor looked forward to seeing all his students finish their drawings.23. What is the thing like stars that the writer saw in the last paragraph?A. His own eye.B. Real stars.C. Something unknown.D. Milk.24. In what writing style did the writer write the passage?A. Realistic〔现实的〕.B. Romantic〔浪漫的〕.C. Serious〔严肃的〕.D. Humorous.BBelow is a housing guide for students going to London.A. It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting.B. It gives you personal information about other co-renters.C. Their website is designed mainly for students.D. There are some good bargains.26. A good agent can help you _____.A. know more peopleB. find cheap accommodationC. get the right accommodation quicklyD. get free information about most accommodations27. The information passed on by word of mouth is important because _____.A. it is better than that found through any other sourceB. it helps you find some of the best housing never advertisedC. the final year students always offer better informationD. the landlords have little valuable informationCThe unquestioned(无疑问的) role of a student is to learn as much as possible through whatever means(方式〕 it takes to acquire〔获得〕 knowledge. Teachers and professors are human beings and are therefore not perfect. No one knows the correct answer to every question even when you limit〔限制〕 the questions to a certain 〔领域〕field of study. Having certain skepticism (质疑) about what they are being taught can help students to make the teachers even better by correcting mistakes and misinformation〔错误信息〕.Students certainly have a huge role in their own abilities to learn. Teachers should act more as guides〔指路人〕 along the way rather than try to force〔强迫〕each student to learn. The best teachers in the world cannot teach an unmotivated 〔没有动机的〕 student. If the teacher, for whatever reason, cannot motivate〔鼓励〕 the student, then the student must somehow〔不管怎样〕 find a way to motivate himself or herself.One method of doing this is by becoming an active rather than a passive〔消极的〕 student. The more the student involves〔参与〕 himself or herself in the act of studying, the better he or she can learn. One of the best ways to become more active is simply to ask the teacher or professor questions. Students who passively 〔被动地〕 sit in a classroom and take everything that the teacher says for granted 〔认为......是理所当然的〕 are not fully using their mental capacities〔才能〕 to learn.Better education comes from teachers who are able to get their students to think about a subject〔科目〕 rather than merely absorb〔吸收〕 a certain amount ofinformation. Having a healthy skepticism can improve a student’s ability to both think and absorb knowledge in a learning situation.Teachers are human beings and no one is completely〔完全地〕 right all of the time, even in a classroom situation. Perhaps a teacher would simply unconsciously 〔无意识地〕 say the wrong word or pass on some misinformation that the teacher truly believed was correct. A student’s question could prevent〔阻止〕an entire classmates from becoming confused or misinformed〔误导〕.There is of course a fine balance〔平衡〕 between a student having a healthy skepticism and just being a downright〔完全的〕skeptic〔疑心者〕. But with the proper attitude toward learning and a little skepticism, both the students and teachers can improve upon the learning process and maximize〔最大化〕 learning efficiency 〔效率〕.28. Which of the following is the author’s main argument〔论点〕?A. Passive learning results from passive teaching in class.B. A healthy skepticism and proper attitude contribute to〔有助于〕 effectivelearning.C. A healthy skepticism fully depends on students’ motivation and ability.D. A student’s ability plays a huge role in the learning process.29. Being passive learners, the students .A. use lots of their mental ability while studyingB. ask their teachers questions as many as possibleC. can hardly tell the right from the wrong in classD. seldom involve themselves completely in learning30. According to the passage, a good teacher should .A. help the unmotivated students impatientlyB. Instruct〔指导〕 students in the learning processC. make no mistakes in the teaching processD. answer all the questions raised by students31. The author will most probably agree that .A. keeping skepticism to a certain degree〔到达某种程度〕 is importantB. having a passive attitude can ensure the learning processC. taking everything for granted makes a student learn somethingD. a teacher’s ability can not be improved by encouraging doubtDBenefits of Cross-Country Skiing〔越野滑雪〕Cross-country skiing can be enjoyed by a wide range of〔范围广泛的〕 students, from the youngest kindergartners〔幼儿园小孩〕 to those secondary students. It is really a fun activity, providing students a gentle workout outside in winter. While having fun, students can gain physical and mental benefits.The physical〔身体的〕 benefits of cross-country skiing are well known. If we look at Olympic cross-country skiers, we can see the positive〔积极的〕 effects on the body that result from〔由于〕 training for cross-country skiing. The average 〔平均〕 best female cross-country skier carries 11 percent body fat〔体脂〕, and best male skiers carry 5 percent. These percentages〔比例〕 are well below the average for people who are considered to be athletic --17 percent for females and 10 percent for males. The high number of calories burned while skiing helps to keep skiers slim 〔苗条的〕 in a healthy and attractive way.Cross-country skiing is also an efficient〔高效的〕 way to exercise a large numberof muscles at once. Because skiers use ski poles〔杆〕 as a means of propulsion 〔推进〕, the force that drives〔驱动〕 skiers forward, the upper body gets much more of workout. Of course, the leg muscles also do their fair share〔公平分配〕. People who use cross-country skiing as a workout over several weeks will discover that the muscles of their entire body increase in strength.Cross-country skiing on a regular basis has a tremendous〔极大的〕 effect on a person’s cardiovascular〔心血管的〕 system. In addition to gaining strength in the muscles of the upper and lower body, people who use cross-country skiing as a workout method over several weeks will also discover that their heart is stronger.A strong heart pumps〔跳动〕 more efficiently, sending out more blood to the muscles with each contraction(收缩). Through weeks of skiing, people often discover that their resting〔静止的〕 heart rate has decreased〔降低〕. Highly trained Olympic cross-country skiers have resting heart rates between 28 and 40 beats per minute. Compare that to the resting heart rate of the average person, which is 60 to 80 beats per minute!The benefits of cross-country skiing extend〔延伸〕 beyond overall〔全部的〕general health. It also has mental benefits. A lot of evidence exists indicating 〔说明〕 that regular physical activity increases the release〔释放〕 of mood-lifting endorphin (内啡肽) in the body. After one of the energetic and fun skiing lessons, students will be smiling and laughing; they will be relaxed and in a better mood than when they started class. Students will leave class with a sense of accomplishment〔成就感〕, knowing that they have developed new skills in a fun activity.Cross-country skiing is a great way to work〔锻炼〕 the total body. Now moreand more students are taking part in this exercise outside during the winter months. They are enjoying it and benefiting from it!32. The underlined word “workout〞 means_______.A. mannerB. opportunityC. applicationD. exercise33. According to the passage, we can learn that cross-country skiing ______.A. can balance out〔相抵〕 the sk iers’ increased caloriesB. requires the use of most muscle groupsC. can increase the athletes’ resting heart ratesD. offers students a only way to keep fit34. How does the author prove the benefits of skiing in the fifth paragraph?A. By giving explanations〔解释〕.B. By giving data.C. By making comparisons〔作比拟〕.D. By giving comments.35. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?A BC DCP: Central point〔中心要点〕 P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: Conclusion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。

高二第2周周考英语试题（满分100分时间40分钟）班级：姓名：成绩：第一节：阅读理解（8*3=24分）ANature responds to climate change.To understand it，we need to monitor key life cycle events—flowering，the appearance of leaves，the first frog calls of the spring—all around the world.But scientists can’t be everywhere so they’re turning to nonscientists，sometimes called citizen scientists，for help.A group of scientists and educators set up an organization last year called the National Phenology Network.“Phenology” is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.One of the group’s first efforts depends on scientists and nonscientists alike to collect da ta about plant flowering and leafing every year.The program，called Project BudBurst，collects life cycle data on different kinds of usual plants from across the United States.“People don’t have to be plant experts—they just have to look around and see what’s in their neighborhood，” says Jennifer Schwartz，an adviser with the project.“As we collect this data，we’ll be able to predict how plants and communities of plants and animals will respond as the climate changes.”That data will help scientists predict not only how natural communities may change but also how these changes will affect people.Scientists monitoring lilac flowering in the Western United States reported that in years when lilacs bloomed early—before May 20th—wildfires later in the summer and fall are larger and more severe.“Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell，” Jennifer says.Improved monitoring is an important step toward predicting how natural communities will respond to climate change.“The best way for us to increase our kno wledge of how plants and animals are responding to climate change is to increase the amount of data we have，”she says.“That’s why we need citizen scientists to get as much information as many places on as many species over as long a time period as we can.”1．The National Phenology Network is set up to________.A．research how nature makes response to climate changeB．keep a record of what is happening in natureC．make a study of the first frog calls of the springD．judge what plants will die out in the future2．The task of Project BudBurst is to________.A．grow more plants to improve the climateB．collect information about usual plantsC．make citizens tell different plantsD．find out how many kinds of plants there are in America3．By saying “Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell”in Paragraph 6，Jennifer meant________.A．lilac flowers could make people feel anxious or afraidB．lilacs could warn people of the danger of wildlifeC．the blooming of lilacs could predict the happening of wildfiresD．the flowers of lilacs could be used to wake people up4．This passage is mainly about________.A．why we need to collect data about natureB．when an alarm bell sounds for natureC．what citizen scientists are in AmericaD．how nature responds to climate changeBEvery New Year brings renewed expectation for a change，for a better life and for a better you.That’s a wonderful thing，because this fresh start gives us a chance to reinvent our lives and ourselves.Here’s how.Let goMany times we are held back by our previous failures，emotions and barriers.This is all old baggage.Let everything unhappy from the past go.Let go of failures.Let go of fears you’ve built up.Let go of your ideas about what your life has to be like.Let go of longheld beliefs and habits which seem to be burdens to you.Clear away distractions (分心)Clear away email，your favourite blogs and news websites.Clear away the iPhone or BlackBerry，and clear away all the chores that pull at your attention.In fact，if you can，shut off the Internet for a while.You can come back to it after you take a break.Decide what matters most todayF orget about your goals for all of this year.Instead，decide what you want to do today.What matters most to you and your life? What are you most passionate about right now？What excites you? What gives you the most fulfillment? Often the answer would be in creating something，making something new，helping others，becoming a better person，and working on a project that you will be proud of.But whatever your answer，have it clear in your mind at the beginning of the day.Reinvent yourself every dayEvery day，you are reborn.Reinvent yourself and yo ur life.Do what matters most to you.It might be the same thing that mattered most yesterday，or it might not be.That isn’t important.What’s important is today—right now? Be passionate，and be happy!You’ll have a fresh start every single day—not just on January 1 of a new year.5．Writing this passage，the author seems to be ________.A．strict B．peacefulC．nervous D．confident6．The underlined word “chores” refers to ________.A．modern technology B．unimportant thingsC．online information D．fashionable devices7．Which of th e following is the writer’s suggestion according to the passage?A．Stopping us ing hitech devices to avoid troubles in your life.B．Seizing the moment，but not to make a plan for the far future.C．Forgetting everything about and from the past.D．Making yourself a person reborn every day.8．The most suitable title for the passag e is “________”．A．Work Effectively in a New YearB．Reduce Stress in a New YearC．Freshen the Start of Every New DayD．Live a Better Life in Every New Day第二节完型填空（20*2.5=50分）“It is never too late and you are never too old to start something new！” says Englishtown__1__Ellen Rema.Ellen began to learn English at the age of 50，and in just a few years，she has made__2__progress!Ellen chose to study at Englishtown because no evening classes were__3__in the German countryside where she lives.At Englishtown，she joins__4__classes online and speaks with live native Englishspeaking teachers.“Englishtown is a wonderful place to__5__.” she says.“My son always says，mom，you are a bit__6__.He cannot understand why I spend so many hours studying，__7___love it.I do i t for myself.”In 2001，Ellen began with the first level of Englishtown and quickly__8__.“I spent hours and hours studying，”she said.“Maybe I wanted too much in a short time.I finished all my__9__after 2 years，but noticed I still had__10__difficulties.”Instead of__11__，she chose to press on.After four years at Englishtown，she’s still studying in the online classroom，but now to perfect her already__12__English，she has set new__13__for herself and__14__understanding grammar points.“Studying online is never__15__，but you need selfdiscipline，selfmotivation and staying power，”she says.“If you really want to learn，never quit even when you notice d ifficulties or when you think there is no__16__.Practice，practice，practice！”Ellen says studying English isn’t all about hard work.It should also be__17__！“I really like the online conversation classrooms，”she says.“I have learned so much about other cultures and traditions.I’m open for all __18__.”Ellen has been able to __19__ her English to use by visiting England five times! “I’m very thankful to Englishtown because most of the English I know now was learned here，” Ellen says.“My life has __20__ with Englishtown.”1．A.professor B．friendC．student D．reporter2．A.amazing B．challengingC．discouraging D．disturbing3．A.satisfied B．offeredC．attended D．represented4．A.conversation B．compositionC．listening D．reading5．A.live B．eatC．entertain D．study6．A.crazy B．tiredC．worried D．attractive7．A.though B．butC．while D．when8．A.dropped B．brushedC．awarded D．progressed9．A.channels B．schedulesC．courses D．papers10．prehen ding B．readingC．grammar D．vocabulary11．A.fighting back B．giving upC．turning away D．looking around12．A.significant B．shabbyC．broken D．excellent13．A.goals B．decisionsC．means D．conclusions14．A.turns off B．gets offC．focuses on D．puts up15．A.interesting B．boringC．shocking D．unwilling16．A.vision B．successC．struggle D．tendency17．A.fun B．wasterC．weakness D．wonder18．A.measures B．topicsC．timetables D．fashions19．A.take B．setC．make D．put20．A.ruined B．startedC．changed D．Turned第三节：短文改错（20*1.3=26分）ALast year，I was addicted with playing computer games.I found it hard to breakingaway from the bad habit.My teacher talked to my parents about this，and they made me to promise not to play those games again.I tried hard，but I found it uselessly.The moment my fingers left the keyboard，I would feel very uncomfortable.Because I was determined to forget the games，I still could not concentrate on the lessons giving in classes.Fortunately，psychological advisor in our school came to know this.He talks with me about his problem.At last，he offered his advices on how to get rid of theaddiction.Now I can manage to control myself.BNowadays millions of people of all age take pleasure in a hobby which is bothinterested and fun.And every year more and more people start a stamp collection of your own and discover an interest which can even last lifetime.Starting your collection of stamps are easy because they are nowhere.Holiday and birthday postcards and letters send by your friends and relatives can provid e you for stamps from all over the world.But once you’ve started collecting seriously，you will probably want to join in the Stamp Collectors’ Club which exist to add more stamps to your collection.天全中学2015—2016学年下期高二第2周周考英语参考答案第一节：阅读理解（8*3=24分）A篇【解题导语】自然界如何随着气候的变化而产生相应的反应，科学家们为了得到更充分的数据，与有关人员成立了专门组织进行研究。

This is almost the same as the age-old question: The chicken or the egg, which came first?Usually,juicers remove the juice and some pulp (果肉) from fruits and/or vegetables.It takes a lot of fruit to make acontainer of juice. We do get all of the vitamins, minerals, beneficial plantchemicals and carbohydrates in juice out of a whole fruit. But we do not getmuch of the fiber, the part that aids our digestive process, fills us up, andmay help protect us against heart diseases and certain cancers.However,you may be surprised to discover that some juices actually contain more necessary nutrients (营养). For e_ample, apples are not a good source of vitamin C, but manytypes of apple juice are fortified with vitamin C.Juicetypically has more calories than fresh fruit due to added sugar and less fiber.If calories are your primary concern, choose fresh fruit over juice and usewater to quench your thirst. You can also look for low-calorie cranberry juice,typically sweetened with sugar substitute. We do not feel as filled up from juice because it does not contain any fiber. For many people, drinking a caloric beverage (饮料), such as juice, is not as satisfying as eating the same amount ofcalories in food. For those of us who need to increase caloric intake (such asathletes, children, or teens) juice is a GREAT choice.Kidslove the taste of pure fruit juice, and parents love it because it is a healthysource of nutrients. But avoid junk fruit beverages which are mistaken for juice blends that contain various fruits like grape, apple and pear. These juices do not have the natural levels of vital nutrients that 100 percentpure juices like orange juice provide.56. According to the passage, you’d better have _______ to help prevent heart disease.A.fruit B.juice C.calories D.minerals57.What can we learn from this passage?A. We can getout of fruit all the nutrients which aid our digestive process.B. We can hardly determine which provides more nutrients, juice orfruit.C.People may prefer juice to food in taking in the same amount of calories.D. If you wantmore calories, fruit might be your better choice.58. Theunderlined word 〝blends〞 in Paragraph5 probably means 〝______〞.A.containers B.products C.substitutes D.mi_tures59. The authorwrites the passage mainly _______.A.to remind people of negative effects of juiceB.to call on people to drink more juiceC.to help people learn more about fruit and juiceD.to persuade people to avoid junk juice containing various fruitsBThe earliest type ofmedicine in most cultures was the use of plants (herbalism) and animal parts.There is no actual record of when the use of plants for medical purposes firststarted, although the first generally accepted use of plants as healing medicine was described in the cave paintings discovered in France, which havebeen dated back to between 25000－13000 BC.Thepractice of medicine developed gradually, and separately, in ancient China, Egypt, India, Greece, Persia and elsewhere. Medicine as it is practiced nowdeveloped largely in the late 18th century and early 19th century in England,Germany and France, thanks to advances in chemistry as well as laboratory techniques and equipment. The new ‘scientific’ medicine (whose resultsare testable and repeatable) replacedmedicine in earlier times, which was based on herbalism.The modern era really began withRobert Koch’s discoveries around 1880 of the transmission of disease by bacteria, and then the discovery of antibiotics (抗生素) thereafter. The 20th century witnessed major advancesin the treatment of infectious(传染性的) diseases in western societies.
