高二英语(yīnɡ yǔ)第8周下学期周练试卷总分：120分考试(kǎoshì)时间是是：100分钟第二(dìèr)局部阅读(yuèdú)理解〔一共两节，40分〕第一节〔一共15小题；每一小题2分，一共30分〕AIn April 2021，the world's oldest known message in a bottle was discovered floating in the Baltic Sea. It had spent 101 years lost in the ocean！The message was finally sent to the author's granddaughter.A German fisherman named Konrad Fischer found the brown bottle near Kiel，Germany. He said he nearly threw the bottle back into the water after pulling it out of a fishing net. Then he noticed something inside.The bottle in good condition contained a Danish postcard with two German stamps，dated May 17，1913. Although dampness had made most of the writing illegible〔字迹模糊的〕，the readable part of the message asked whoever found it to return it to an address in Berlin. It even contained two stamps to pay for postage.From the address，researchers found that the postcard was written by a man named Richard Platz，who was 20 years old when he wrote the message. While he was hiking on the Baltic coast with a nature appreciation group，he threw the bottle into the sea. Then the researchers began a search for any living relatives of his. Sure enough，they were able to find his 62-year-oldgranddaughter，Angela Erdmann，who still lives in Berlin.“It was almost unbelievable，〞Erdmann said upon being presented with her grandfather's bottle and message.“That was a pretty moving moment. Tears rolled down my face."Erdmann never knew her grandfather，who died in 1946，but says that the discovery of the bottle has made her want to learn more about him.The bottle remained on display at the International Maritime Museum in Hamburg until May 1. After that, the researchers examined the postcard and tried to figure out the meaning of the rest of the message.Previously，the oldest message found in a bottle spent nearly 98 years at sea and wasdiscovered in April 2021，according to Guinness World Records.21 . When Konrad Fischer picked up the bottle from the sea，．A. he thought it would bring him good luckB. he noticed the postcard inside immediatelyC. he decided to uncover the secret of the bottleD. he wanted to throw it back into the sea at first22. Why did Richard Platz throw the bottle with the message into the sea?A. He expected his granddaughter could find the postcard.B. He wished the finder would send the postcard to his home.C. He believed his postcard would be kept secret at sea forever.D. He thought he could make friends with the finder of the bottle.23．What can be the best title for this passage？A. The finding of a floating bottle at the seaB. A one-century-old letter to a granddaughterC. The world's oldest message in a floating bottleD. The oldest Danish postcard in a floating bottleBThere are some strange driving laws in different countries.24. Where should you go to wash your car when you are in Moscow?A. The car wash facilities.B. Any public placeC. Your homeD. The forest25. What can get you fined for in Cyprus?A. Forgetting to carry a portable breathalyzer.B. Not having a Cyprus driver’s license.C. Putting your hands above your head when you are driving.D. Driving without a shirt.26. If you are fined thousands of dollars in Japan, you may have been ____.A. in an irregular position in your carB. sitting in a car with a drunk driverC. splashing a person with mudD. impolite to other drivers27. This text can most likely be found in _______.A. a law documentB. a fashion magazineC. an international newspaperD. a column on interesting culturesCLook at the keyboard of any standard typewriter or computer. “Q〞〞W〞“E〞“R〞“T〞and “Y〞are the first six letters. Who decided on this arrangement of the letters? And why?People tried for centuries to invent the typewriter. In 1714 in England, Henry Mill filed a patent for a machine called An Artificial Machine Or Method for the Impressing or Transcribing of Letters, Singly or Progressively one after another, as in Writing, drawing upon this way all Writing may be absorbed inPaper so Neat and Exact as not to be distinguished from Print. That machine probably didn’t sell because no one could remember its name!The first practical typewriter was patented in the United States in 1868 by Christopher Latham Sholes. His machine was known as the type-writer. It had a movable carriage, a lever for turning paper from line to line, and a keyboard on which the letters were arranged in alphabetical order.But Sholes had a problem. O n his first model, his “ABC〞 key arrangement caused the keys to jam when the typist worked quickly. Sholes didn’t know how to keep the keys from sticking, so his solution was to keep the typist from typing too fast. Sholes asked his brother-in-1aw to rearrange the keyboard so that the commonest letters were not so close together and the type bars would come from opposite directions. Thus they would not clash together and jam the machine. The new arrangement was the QWERTY arrangement typists use today. Of course, Sholes claimed that the new arrangement was scientific and would add speed and efficiency. The only efficiency it added was to slow the typist down, since almost any word in the English language required the typist’s fingers to cover more distance on the keyboard.The advantages of the typewriter outweighed the disadvantages of the keyboard. Typists memorized the crazy letter arrangement, and the typewriter became a huge success. By the time typists had memorized the new arrangement of letters and built their speed, typewriter technology had improved, and the keys didn’t stick as badly as they had at first.28. We know from the passage that the inventor of the first practical typewriteris_____.A. Henry MillB. Christopher Latham SholesC. Sholes’ brother-in-lawD. Albert Einstein29.The author thinks the machine invented by Henry Mill could not be soldbecause______.A. it was difficult for people to accept new thingsB. there were great disadvantages of the key boardC. the name of the machine was too longD. the machine could not be distinguished from print30. Sholes decided the QWERTY arrangement of the keyboard in order to______.A. solve the problem of the keys jammingB. arrange the letters in alphabetical orderC. cause the keys to jam when the typist worked quicklyD. compete with “ABC〞 key arrangement31. It is inferred that the QWERTY arrangement of the keyboard______.A. is the most scientific arrangementB. adds speed and efficiency of typistsC. is easy for typists to memorizeD. keeps the typist from typing too fastDFailure is mother of success, as the Chinese saying goes. I know it is noteasy as parents to see our children failing. However, there is great value in “failure〞.I remember many years ago when I was a student leader, I organized a camp with my committee, which turned out to be a disaster. We scheduled activities too close together, and didn’t assign(分配(fēnpèi)) enough time for meal and bath.My leaders, who I thought were thoroughly angry with us, led us lead, nevertheless. They kept us in check, and had a few talks with us during the camp and we readjusted the schedule. They gave us the freedom to lead and also the freedom to fail.Many years down the road, I was a guest speaker at a similar camp. Again, it was a disaster for different reasons. The student wrote a schedule, and the leaders rewrote it. The student came up with a menu, and the leaders changed it. While at the camp, the leaders amended (修改(xiūgǎi)) the schedule further. The poor committee couldn’t attempt to lead without being ignored by their leaders. To be sure, I learned more from my failed camp than the one at which I was a guest. Having the skills to plan a camp at 16 set the foundation (根底(gēndǐ)) for future skills to plan a project and see it through at the workplace.As parents, many of us have much about how success arises from failure. The history of silence is filled with such stories: an experiment that went hopelessly wrong eventually led to something right.Most successes are achieved through persistence(坚持(jiānchí)), and oftenonly after persevering through failures, sometimes many times over. We only succeed because of a failure.32.In the first paragraph the author want to say that _______.A. children are more likely to fail than adultsB. Parents should allow children to make mistakesC. parents should know how to lead their children to succeedD. parents should help their children know the value of failure33.Why did the author fail to organize a successful camp?A. Because he didn’t arrange enough activitiesB. Because he didn’t prepare meals for campers.C. Because he didn’t arrange the time reasonablyD. Because he didn’t take advice from the leaders.34.It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s leaders ______.A. were disappointed with the studentsB. were not good at giving adviceC. were strict with the studentsD. were patient with the students35.By attending the two camps, the author learned that ______.A. leaders should c are much about students’need.B. students should be given enough freedomC. students should make a schedule by themselvesD. students should ignore leaders’orders.第二节〔一共5小题(xiǎo tí)；每一小题2分，一共10分〕Having a happier life is something we all always struggle for. One of the key foundations of that is to be consistent in doing things that bring happiness. 36． ____ Consider these 4 habits:1.

They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this way they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time --- at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area－except for The Penguin.Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.4. Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they _____.A. live in groupsB. have their own languageC. are warm-bloodedD. have large brains5.Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?A. Its jaw.B. Its earsC. Its nose.D. Its eyes.6. By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that _____.A. people are cruel to animalsB. Jack is different from other dolphinsC. dolphins are friendly and cleverD. dolphins should be protected by law7.Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A. They wanted his help.B. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was lonely and liked to be with peopleD. He was seriously wounded.CAmerica’s latest superhero Austin Perine, who calls himself President Austin，is now taking the country by storm. But he is not a typical superhero. Two things set him apart: He doesn’t fight human enemies，but hunger and homelessness. Also, he’s only four years old.Our superhero’s origin story started from the day when TJ Perine, his father, took Austin to the Firehouse Ministries, a local shelter that provides housing, food and other services for the homeless. As they drove by the building，they saw a group of 25 homeless men standing on the street corner. That day, Austin used his allowance to buy each man a sandwich and handed the food out himself with his slogan，“Don’t forget to show love!”After he returned every week for five weeks in a row, word of Austin’s kindness spread through social media. Austin and TJ could feed 25 to 50 people at a time before，and now，thanks to community support，they can feed 800 to 2,000 people.But Austin isn’t merely filling stomachs. He has been improving the lives of the homeless people he meets. On that first trip to Firehouse Ministries，TJ and Austin talked to a poor man named Raymont. The respect Austin showed for him touched 41-year-old Raymont，who regained his confidence in life and finally found a job with the help of TJ. All that was made possible because a little boy took the time to care.Austin’s passion has become his family’s calling. After raising money through a GoFundMe page，Audrey, TJ’s mother established the nonprofit Show Love Foundation ，dedicated to fighting homelessness. She now serves as president，and TJ oversees public relations for the foundation full time. They offer medical and mental health care as preventive steps against homelessness. As for President Austin，he continues to give out food，smiles，and his inspirational message of love.“It makes me feel like I’m saving the day,” he said proudly.8. Why has Austin become well—known to the entire country?A. He has super power to fill the stomachs of the homeless.B. He fights hunger and homelessness at such a young age.C. He has removed the poverty of the local community.D. He has chosen an impressive and unique name.9. Which of the following can replace the underlinedword“dedicated”in Paragraph 5?A. Exposed.B. Opposed.C. Devoted.D. Addicted.10. Why does the author introduce the example of Raymont in Paragraph 4?A. To show Austin’s positive influence.B. To persuade people to live off their own.C. To prove the personal ability of Austin’s father.D. To describe the difficult situation of poor people.11. What is the author’s attitude towards what Austin does?A. Sympathetic.B. Humorous.C. Approving.D. Considerate.DA company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into women’s shoes.Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothy’s, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the company’s co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for women’s feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoe’s outer part, called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourcedno-carbon rubber.Rothy’s shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “We’re not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think that is a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.12. How are used plastic bottles usually dealt with?A. They are buried or burned.B. They are used to make shoes.C. They are changed into soft materials.D. They arc returned to factories for reuse.13. What does the underlined word“knitted”in the third paragraph mean?A. Attached.B. Fixed.C. Combined.D. Repaired.14. Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothy’s shoes?A. The design and color.B. The reasonable price.C. The company’s advertisement.D. The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.15. What is the purpose of the text?A. To advertise a new kind of shoes.B. To describe the process of making shoes.C. To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.二．句子填空（共10小题，每题4分，满分40分）16. _______ was evident that the policy was a failure; nothing has changed at all.17. _______ (be) it to rain ,the crops would be saved.18.

Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea, themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “plicated idea” until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony or its very plicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anythingshorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.”That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last words, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.1.On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writerthought___________.A.one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a plicated ideaC.it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD.students ought to make a list of the books they had read2.While at high school , the writer __________.A.had plans for readingB.learned to educate himselfC.only read books over 100 pagesD.read only one book several times3.The underlined phrases “with finality”in the second paragraphprobably means _____________.A firmly B. clearly C. proudly Dpleasantly4. The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to _____________.A. explain why it was included in the listB. describe why he seriously crossed it off the listC. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandD prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word5. The writer provides two book lists to____________.A. show how he developed his point of viewB. tell his reading experience at high schoolC. introduce the two person s’ reading methodsD. explain that he read many books at high schoolBWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing todo, they are more likely to bee dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”6. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; monD. hopeful and helpful; careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person8. A person ________ is more likely to bee a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use9. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may bee.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.阅读表达：According to the dictionary definition of “ create” , ordinary people are creative everyday . To create means to bring into being or to cause to exist –something each of us does daily .We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way . First this involves an awareness of our surroundings . It means using all of our sense to bee aware of world . This may be as simple as being aware of color and appearance , as well as taste , when we plan a meal . Above all , it is the ability to notice things that others might miss .A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things .

第一局部：阅读理解〔一共两节，满分是26分〕第一节〔一共8小题；每一小题2分，满分是16分〕AMany of us grow up with dreams of becoming a scientist, teacher, doctor or lawyer. Now, there are more career choices for young people.Earlier this month, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security announced 16 new professions. Some of these professions have made great contributions in the fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia(NCP). Here we have chosen three for you. Let’s take a look. Respiratory therapistsSince the outbreak of the NCP, respiratory diseases have become a great concern. This is where respiratory therapists (呼吸治疗师) come in. According to US News, a respiratory therapist cares for patients who have trouble breathing or suffer from heart attacks, or shock. Due to their frequent communication with patients, they need to be adept at socializing, helping others, and teaching.Artificial intelligence (AI) trainersFrom Siri to robots on the assembly line(消费线) , AI has become an important part of our lives. To improve on this technology, AI trainers regularly sort and add data to AIs to optimize(优化) their analysis process, which helps AIs to better meet people’s needs. During the NCP outbreak, AI trainers in the US, for example, used artificial intelligence to look for social posts that mentioned specific symptoms resembling (与……相似) NCP. Then, the AI created a publicly accessible map that attempted to live-track (实时追踪) the virus.Prefabricated building constructorsErecting a building is quite common, but finishing its construction in a short period, even within a week, is highly unusual. However, prefabricated building constructors(装配式建筑施工员) can make that a reality. According to Forbes magazine, they can quickly assemble(组装) a variety of components of a structure at a manufacturing site and then transport those sub-assemblies (子配件) to the location of the construction site. During the NCP outbreak, Leishenshan Hospital and Huoshenshan Hospital were built in 14 days and 10 days respectively, thanks to the efforts of such skilled constructors.1. What does the underlined phrase “adept at〞in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. patient withB. skillful atC. careful aboutD. responsible for2. AI trainers intend to improve AI’s ability to ______.A. collect and sort dataB. interact with peopleC. analyze dataD. draw maps3. What are prefabricated building constructors responsible for?A. Manufacturing building components.B. Designing building components.C. Producing sub-assemblies for construction.D. Gathering sub-assemblies for construction.4. What is the text mainly about?A. Collective efforts to fight COVID-19.B. Examples of new professions.C. Three of the most popular career choices.D. Technological contributions to fighting COVID-19.BQueen Elizabeth II has led Great Britain through many tough times throughout her 68-year sovereignty (在位). But never, during her reign (统治)，has an issue disrupted the British public as much as the current pandemic of COVID-19.By April 6, the UK had had 47,806 confirmed cases. Among them, crucially, is British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who has recently been hospitalized. With the country entering its peak infection period, the Queen made only her fifth televised address to the nation, aside from her annual Christmas broadcast, on April 5. The four other times she has made such an address have been to mark the Gulf War, the death of Princess Diana of Wales, the death of her mother and her Diamond Jubilee (登基六十周年纪念).According to Jonny Dymond, the BBC’s royal correspondent (通讯记者), “The Palace could have played it safe, stressed unity and given thanks. But this speech was designed to reassure(重拾信心) and inspire.〞In her pre-recorded statement, the Queen focused on the dedication (奉献) of her subjects. “We have seen heart-warming stories of people coming together to help others, be it through delivering food parcels and medicines, checking on neighbours, or converting(转变) businesses to help the relief effort.〞As well as thanking frontline workers, she pushed a message of comfort and motivation. “ Together, we are tackling this disease, and I want to reassure you that if we remain united and resolute, then we will overcome it.〞“We should take comfort that while we may have more still to endure, better days will return: we will be with our friends again; we will be with our families again; we will meet again.〞Following the speech, people throughout the country voiced their admiration for her moving words.London Mayor praised the Queen’s focus on frontline healthcare workers, and councilor (议员) Oliver Cooper wrote, “Nobody could have rallied (振作) the country, the Commonwealth, and the world the way the Queen did.〞Some Internet users even shared how they cried after the speech, while others wrote the words of the national anthem (国歌), God Save the Queen.Indeed, the wisdom of Britain’s 93-year-old monarch (君主) offered hope to the millions of Britons under lockdown.5. What role does the second paragraph play?A. To offer the latest information about the pandemic in the UK.B. To inform the reader of the Queen's televised address.C. To explain why the address was delivered via television.D. To indicate the importance of the Queen’s recent speech.6. What does the phrase “her subjects〞 in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. her familyB. the stories she toldC. the topics in her speechD. the citizens under her rule7. What are Paragraphs 7-9 mainly about?A. The f ocus of the Queen’s speech.B. The public's reaction to the Queen’s speech.C. How the Queen delivered the speech.D. To whom the speech was addressed.8. What can we conclude from the text?A. The UK has never experienced a tougher time.B. The palace should have played it safe.C. The Queen’s speech has served its purpose.D. The Queen was calling on the whole world to unite against COVID-19.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。

高二英语下学期第八次周练试题
得夺市安庆阳光实验学校高阳中学高二英语下学期第八次周练试题新人教版第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AIt all started off with five. It was raining, and my dad told me that I had to make five free throws (投球) one after another without a break before I could go home. I was ten years old at that time. So I shot (投球) until I indeed made five free throws. Pretty soon the number of free throws increased until I got to high school and I had to make seventy-five before I could leave the gym.I used to get mad when I reached the required amount and I would miss the next one, but my dad made me start over, saying that I missed it on purpose. So in high school I would usually get to 120 before I stopped. My highest ever was 175. I never expected this would ever bring me some benefit, but one game really changed my idea.Our school team was playing basketball match with Royal High School, and we lost the game by twenty points a week earlier, so this game was all about revenge (报仇). With two minutes left in the game, my team was up by six and their coach told them to foul (犯规). Our coach immediately put forward a perfect plan —giving the ball to me every time. And every time my teammates gave me the ball, the other team would foul me. Then I went to the free throw line and made two free throws successfully. I ended up going ten-for-ten that game all in the last two minutes. The final score was 57-50 and we won.1. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that .A. the author’s father was very strict with himB. the author’s father wanted him to create a recordC. the author had to make five free throws every dayD. the author could make 75 free throws at the age of 102. How many times was the author fouled?A. Ten.B. Seven.C. Six.D. Five.3. What can we learn from the text?A. The author could make fifty free throws within two minutes.B. The author’s hard work brought a good result in the game.C. The author’s coach didn’t know the author had the talent.D. Royal High School team was stronger than the author’s team.BHaving attended a first-aid-at-work course, Brian Cracknell soon found himself responding to two emergencies in a week.Brian was at work in his bus company office in Weston-super-Mare on May 18 when a colleague called to say there had been an accident at a bus stop nearby. He ran to the scene with his first aid kit and found an old lady sitting at the bus stop. When boarding (上车) the bus, the old ladypainfully hurt her left leg, which was bleeding.He introduced himself, and asked some basic first aid questions to get a general picture of her health. Then he put his jacket on the floor, using the lady’s coat as a pillow, and gently laid her down so he could raise her legs and apply some bandages. Bryan said, “At first I was a bit worried about remembering to do all the right things. I made sure she was as comfortable as possible.” When he had nearly finished, he told the lady that she was his first one. The lady said he was doing a great job.Just a week later, Brian got a second call-out to help another lady at a bus stop.Having used his new skills twice within a short time, Brian has decided to sign up as a Red Cross first aid volunteer. As he said, “I just thought: what’s the point in having this knowledge if I’m not going to use it? It felt really good to help those people. I was so proud of myself afterwards, so I’m going to join the Red Cross.”4. Before helping the old lady, Brian .A. had given first aid on many peopleB. was thought to be a skilled first aid volunteerC. knew nothing about how to handle an emergencyD. had learnt first aid skills but hadn’t put them into practice5. What was wrong with the old lady when Brian arrived? A. Her legs were bleeding after being injured.B. Her left leg was injured and was bleeding.C. She fell onto the ground and hurt her head.D. She was knocked down by a bus and lost her legs.6. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?A. The reason why Brian was asked to help.B. Brian handled two emergencies in a week.C. How Brian gave first aid on the old lady.D. How the old lady re acted to Brian’s performance.7. After using his first aid skills twice, Brian .A. was discouraged and decided to give upB. realized he still had a lot of things to learnC. decided to give up his job for the Red CrossD. decided to help more people with his first aid skillsCA Japanese company has ordered all of its 2,700 employees to get identical (一模一样的) hairstyles. For men, the preferred cut is short on the sides and back but longer on top. For women, the company prefers a bob with a longer fringe (刘海) that can be swept to one side. This unusual request is its effort to help the country save energy.The spokeswoman for the Tokyo-based construction firm Maeda Corporation Chizuru Inoue explained, “Our company is eager to protect theenvironment and we encourage our staff to carry out manyenvironment-friendly actions.”She added, “We are not sure of the data yet, but we believe if people have short hair, they do not need to use their hair driers for so long and they will use less water. If all our employees do this, then we may save a lot of power.” Some staff are confused about which style they must have and have been asking which salons (美容院) give the best cut. The energy-saving move is part of a national campaign to reduce energy consumption (消耗) following the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Japan has been struggling to produce enough electricity since the tsunami ended production at the Fukushima plants. The disaster resulted in a review of the country’s energy policy that now means le ss than a quarter of its remaining nuclear plants are in use. The government has talked about a move away from nuclear energy towards more sustainable (能持续的) technologies. Many government departments have taken measures to save power, including a reduced use of air conditioning in offices and schools. Many employees cannot turn down the air conditioner below 27 degrees in the hottest summer months.8. The company gave the order of hairstyles to .A. keep the company offices cleanB. show a good image of the businessC. make the staff look tidy and prettyD. help reduce energy consumption9. After the Fukushima nuclear disaster, Japan .A. is building more nuclear plantsB. has to rethink its energy policyC. limits people’s daily energy useD. decides to close old nuclear plants10. It can be inferred from the text that .A. nuclear power forms 1/4 of Japan’s energyB. nuclear plants will soon disappear in JapanC. the company is not alone in saving energyD. other companies have copied the “hairstyle order”11. What would be the best title for the text?A. Sustainable power is welcome in JapanB. Nuclear disaster brings bad resultsC. Short hairstyles may help save energyD. Japan is lacking in energyDIt turns out that nodding off (睡觉) in class may not be a bad idea, as a new study has shown that going to sleep shortly after learning new materials is the best way to remember them.According to US lead author Jessica Payne, a psychologist at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, nodding off after learning somethingnew is like “telling” the sleeping brain what to remember. Along with colleagues, she studied 207 students who slept for at least six hours per night. Students were randomly (随机地) assigned to study something declarative (陈述的) at 9 am or 9 pm, and returned for testing 30 minutes, 12 hours or 24 hours later.Declarative memory refers to the ability to consciously (有意识地) remember facts and events, and can be divided into memory for events and memory for facts about the world. People use both types of memory every day — remembering where they parked today or learning how a colleague prefers to be called.At the 12-hour retest, memory was better following a night of sleep compared to a day of wakefulness (不眠). At the 24-hour retest, with all students having received both a full night of sleep and a full day of wakefulness, students’ memories were greater when sleep happened shortly after learning rather than following a full day of wakefulness.“Our study confirms that sleeping directly after learning something new is beneficial for memory. What’s special for this study is that we have shown sleep’s influence on declarative memory,” Payne said. “Since we found that sleeping soon after learning benefited both types of memory, this means that it would be a good thing to go over any information you need to remember before going to bed. In some sense, you may be telling the sleeping brain what to consolidate (巩固).”12. Wha t’s the main idea of the text?A. How to improve one’s memory is a difficult problem.B. Nodding off after learning something new helps remember it.C. Students should nod off in class after they learn new materials.D. The best way to remember new materials is to nod off in class.13. We can learn about the study that .A. Jessica Payne and her colleagues were testedB. 207 students were eager to take the testC. it tested students studying something declarativeD. people’s memory can be divided into two types14. Paragraph 4 mainly tells us .A. students’ memories are the best if they sleep for 12 hours each dayB. sleeping for 24 hours contributes to improving students’ memoriesC. a full day of wakefulness can make students’ memories improved greatlyD. students’ memories are better when sleep happens shortly after learning15. What suggestion does Payne give in the last paragraph?A. The more you sleep, the more you remember.B. Go over what you want to remember before going to bed.C. Teachers should allow their students to sleep in class.D. If you want to improve your memory, you should sleep. 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。

Years of studying interviewing have made it clear that it is not a very objective(客观的) process. Personnel officers often hire the person they like best, or even the one they think most physically attractive. Looking good is no guarantee(保证) of doing the job well, however. Uglies or those who are aesthetically(审美地)challenged, lose heart.To get a more objective view, many companies are also using psychological tests to hire both for relatively daily jobs and for positions at senior levels of management. It is impossible to say how many employers use tests, but estimates of test sales in the UK for 2004 were over ￡1.5 million.The basic reason employers use tests is clear: tests claim(声称) to be scientific and objective. A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection. People's judgements are often very subjective: whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else. But reliable and valid(有效的) effective tests can offer rapid and more objective information about a would be employee. If a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate, an employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a game-like test. You can spend just a little in answering questions of that kind of test, and you deny the answers and say they are not accurate. But you cannot go to a serious test without enough preparation since you can not afford to be denied and removed again and again.59. In the past, who would be sure to be employed after an interview?A. The person who was well educated.B. The person who had great abilities.C. The person who was physically attractive.D. The person who was appreciated by the personnel officers.60. According to the passage, the underlined part "those who are aesthetically challenged" in thefirst paragraph refers to those who are _________.A. thought to be good—lookingB. most likely to do the job wellC. not attractive for their appearancesD. given the job of interviewing the candidate61. Many companies use psychological tests ___________.A. to take the place of interviewsB. to select senior level clerksC. to make the employment difficult for candidatesD. to gel really reliable and fair information about candidates62. From the last paragraph, we can conclude that while taking a serious test for a job, _______.A. you can not treat it as a gameB. you can deny the answersC. you can say the answers are not accurateD. you needn't make much preparation高二英语第八周周考（U3）Class_________Name ________No.________Marks_________V.1．----Why did he come here？----He came with i______________of staying.dies and gentlemen, attention, please.

It took him one hour and fifteen minutes to run the eleven kilometers. After his running, he went to the hospital center. The nurse was surprised and pleased to see that his blood pressure was 139 over 84. She told him that his blood pressure was very good. Then she said, “I wish mine were good like yours. 〞Johnny Kelley is known as the great-grandfather of the Boston Marathon. He ran all the 42 kilometers of the marathon 61 times. This year was the second time that he has cut back and run only part of it. Kelley holds the record for running more Boston Marathons than anyone else.Thousands of people cry “Come on〞 to him as he runs. Today an 11-year-old boy called put to Kelley, “Hey, Mr Kelley. You are a great man. 〞 Kelley smiles and thanks people as he runs. “It’s a wonderful.〞He said, “People come out to shake my hand. I am welcomed by thousands of people. I think a lot of them thought I ran the whole race. And maybe they congratulate because they know me after all there years and they don’t know the other runners. 〞4．Kelley is known as the great-grandfather of the Boston Marathon because _____.A. he is eighty-six years oldB. he ran all the 42 kilometers of the Boston Marathon that dayC. he was old and ran all the 42 kilometers of the Boston Marathon 61 timesD. his grandson is the best runner of the Boston Marathon5．When Kelley said it was wonderful, he meant that _____.A. he was welcomed by thousands of peopleB. his blood pressure was so goodC. he was able to run the whole Marathon raceD. he got to the hospital center safely6．Kelley went to the hospital center after the race _____.A. to tell the nurse the good newsB. to have a good restC. to thank people who cried “come on〞 to himD. to see if his blood pressure was goodCNext time you hear a funny joke you’d better not laugh too hard. According to a paper published by the British Medical Journal, laughter isn’t always the best medicine. Sometimes it can even be harmful. Professor Robin Ferner from the University of Birmingham, one of the authors of the study, found that bad things could happen to people who laughed too much. He says: “We found people with heartbeat problems which had stopped their heart, we found people who had fainted(昏倒), and we found people who’d dislocated their jaws or burst their lungs.〞It seems that laughing can be no laughing matter. But it’s not all doom and gloom. Professor Ferner says there are benefits to laughing when you want to lose weight, for example. Yes, that’s right: laugh and be slimmer! Professor Ferner explains that: “You use energy when you laugh, you move your diaphragm(横膈膜), you expand your lungs, and both those things can be helpful.〞According to the research, laughing for a quarter of an hour can burn up to 40 calories, and if you laughed all day you’d use up about 2,000 calories, which is what most people consume in a day. But don’t do that or you might end up with a painful jaw. Ouch! Or you might find people looking at you in a funny way.But I don’t want to finish this article leaving you feeling desperate. Laughter comes naturally for most of us. Babies begin to laugh at around 3-6 months. So give in to your sense of humour and keep smiling. Life is short anyway.7.The underlined phrase “doom and gloom〞 in Paragraph 2 probably means_______.A.hopelessB.funnyC.painfulD.nervous8. How many calories can you use if you laugh for half a day?A.About 40.B.About 1,000.C.About 2,000.D.About 2,040.9. What is the author’s attitude towards laughing in the last paragraph?A.Uninterested.B.Disapproving.C.Worried.D.Favorable.DRecently a creative advertisement displaying the deep love between an overseas student and his parents has stirred up a debate on Chinese social media, with many criticizing China’s younger generation of being spoiled and too dependent.In the ad, which was created by Chins Merchants Bank to promote its credit card for overseas students, a Chinese student named Lan overc omes the initial “fresh-off-the-boat〞 feeling and starts to make friends with local American students. Deciding to make some stir-fried tomatoes and eggs, a popular Chinese dish, to impress his foreign friends, Lan asks his parentsin China for help. Despite the 12-hour time difference, the parents wake up at 4 am to make a how-to-video for their son.The ad has been viewed over 1.2 million times since it was posted online on Thursday, and has received mixed reactions from Chinese netizens.Some called it a heart-wrenching demonstration of parental love, sharing their own moving moments with their parents.“When I studied abroad, my mother also taught me how to cook delicious dishes over the Internet, so that I would not starve and could enjoy my life in a f oreign country, “wrote a netizen on Sina Weibo, adding that the ad brought her to tears.Others showed a different opinion, criticizing the parents for spoiling the boy."Chinese parents spoil their children. I think it’s heartless and not touching to wake your parents up in the middle of the night just to satisfy your vanity to impress others. Such parental love would only destroy a child, rather than make him/her independent,〞 wrote a netizen."I think the boy is dumb to ask his parents for help, as a casual online search of the recipe can offer at least 6 million results. Spoiling your child is not love, it’s called connivance(纵容),〞 noted another netizen.10.What does the creative advertisement lead to on Chinese social media?A.A great economic interest.B.A great increase in credit card sales.C.A hot topic on social morality.D.A heated debate on Chinese family education.11. What is the first netizen’s attitude towards the story in the ad on Sina Weibo?A.Ambiguous.B.Negative.C.Neutral.D.Sympathetic.12. What’s the best title of the text?A.Controversial Ad Draws Mixed Reaction from Chinese Public.B.How to Make a Popular Chinese Dish.C.The Current Situation of Chinese Netizens.D.Arguments on China’s Advertisement Business.EI look around and can’t recognize where I am. It seems familiar but distant. I see my friends gather by a stage where music is playing and I run over. As I begin running towards them, they become further and further away. I keep calling them, but no one hears me. I start hearing a distant alarm-like sound and I am transported away. I woke up in a daze sitting in my bed.“Oh, it was only a dream,〞 I said to myself. I have always had vivid and intense dreams. It feels like I haven’t even slept because I have been living out my dream s during my sleep.Today, dreaming is being studied even more than ever. Some say that dreams are how your receptors make sense of random thoughts while you sleep. Some say that you can’t dream ofa face you have never seen before, so everyone you see in your dreams you have at least laid eyes on at one time or another.Other people think dreams are ways of expressing stress or internal feelings you may be experiencing. A lot of people say that they have dreams about “being chased〞.A common interpretation of the “being chased〞 dream is that you are feeling threatened. Some dream interpretation websites say you should try to reflect on what or who is chasing you to get a better idea of what is making you feel this way.Another dream that is often experienced is flying. This dream has a much more positive interpretation, which is that you are feeling free or have broken out of a bad situation such as a relationship turned sour or a job you hate.Unfortunately, you may forget half of your dream within five minutes of waking up and within ten minutes, you usually forget 90% of it.Dreamologists, people who devote time to the study and interpretation of dreams, suggest if you want to try to remember and study your dreams you should keep a journal beside your bed and write down what you dreamt as soon as you wake up so you can reflect on it later.13. In which situation do dreams of “being chased〞 probably mean?A.You are feeling free.B.You just quit a job you hate.C.You lack the sense of security.D.Your friends keep you at a distance.14. Why should we keep a journal beside our bed?A.To reflect on what we dream.B.To avoid forgetting our dream.C.To help us sleep well without dreams.D.To help us get out of the tense dreams.15. Where is the passage probably taken from?A.A news reportB.A fiction bookC.An websiteD.A science newspaper第二节. 七选五〔一共5小题，每一小题2分，满分是10分〕The beauty of confidence is that it is possible to learn it, no matter who you are!

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期高二英语第八周周练试卷命题人：xxx第一节：阅读理解（每题2.5分，共10分）I n the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression(侵略)in other animals.This sometimes happens with humans also.But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people.I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat.And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who ap pear independent miss the kindness I see daily.They don’t get to see this soft side of others.Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending.But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we al low people to show the kindness that’s in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual.People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me.At that moment，I decided to do something I had never done in twentyfour years of driving.I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlig hts, I was saying to the other drivers, “I have a problem here.I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood.Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass.They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way.But those are few and far between.More often, it would be bett er if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we’re brave when we’re scared.32.The author has discovered that people will feel happy when ________.A．they offer their help B．they receive others’ helpC．they feel ot hers’ kindness D．they show their weakness33.The author feels sad sometimes because ________.A．he has a soft heart B．he relies much on othersC．some people pretend to be kind D．some people fail to see the kindness in others34.In this passage, the author advises us to ________.A．handle problems by ourselves B．accept help from othersC．admit our weakness D．show our bravery 35.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A．A Wheelchair Experience. B．Weakness and Kindness.C．Weakness and Strength. D．A Driving Experience.第二节：七选五（每题3分，共15分）We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 36 .So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble（结结巴巴）over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”Cheep up! 37 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 38 . Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief.39 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to mak e more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 40 .A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.D. Say what you have to say and then stop.E. Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F.
