山西省晋中市和诚高中2020学年高二英语周练试题（5.11）时间：60分钟总分100分出题人：一、阅读理解（每题4分，共40分）AWe had a TV series in London.One of our fellow TV presenters seriously upset the camera crew when they arrived at his house.He was rude and unconcerned,treating them like lowly workers.Minutes later,when the camera was turned on,he became the perfectly smiling spiritual figure he was publicly known to be.But,as the crew told us later,he had already shown them that he didn't walk his talk.In contrast,Ed was meeting with Jo,our TV producer,in a small London cafe.If you have ever been to London you'll know that in such cafe the tables are very close.Two well dressed African men sat down next to them,which effectively meant they were sharing the same table.Ed asked the two strangers where they were from and one said, "South Africa." The man pulled out his business card—his name was Jacob Zuma who,at that time,was the President of the ANC but is now the President of South Africa.Usually,if you sit next to someone in a big city cafe,you don't even make eye contact,let alone conversation. Jacob had never met Ed before so he could have been distant and polite,he certainly didn't have to talk,let alone maintain communication,which he did over the following few years.He even hugged him!How we walk our talk shows far more than just our public behavior.Rather,it highlights how we view the world and our place in it.Jacob Zuma showed us how he treats others—with the fairness,consideration and respect that he treats all beings.No matter who we are,whether a streetcleaner or a president,we are all equal,here together as one human family.1.What can we learn about the TV presenter?A.He felt upset before the camera.B.He was known for his being impolite.C.His deeds didn't agree with his words.D.He pretended to be polite to the camera crew.2.Which word can best describe Jacob Zuma according to the text?A.Friendly.B.Humorous.C.Generous.D.Serious.3.Why did Ed go to the small London cafe?A.To film a TV series.B.To interview Jacob Zuma.C.To meet with a TV producer.D.To observe people's public behavior.4.What is the text mainly about? presenters are often too proud.B.There still exists inequality in society.C.I.earned people are more likely to be polite.D.People should treat others with equal respect.BParents play an important role in determining the educational success of their children.Their expectations for how well their children do at school and the environment at home are important determinants of achievement.Family influence is great in helping a child to realize academic accomplishment.Children who live in homes in which the parents are academically successful,once they become parents,often feel that their job is to prepare their children to do likewise in school.They take their kids on vacation,but they spend time learning about local history at museums.They also may ensure that their kids have time to study and understand the importance of school attendance.School is a priority for these families,and children who live inthem grow up with a focus on learning.Parents who have high academic expectations and those who adopt a more authoritarian parenting style for their children often have children who do well in school.However,it can be dangerous to set expectations too high,such that a child feels overly pressured to perform.These types of expectations should be balanced with those that relate directly to the child,so that they will be able to personally set and reach goals,work hard and to enjoy being curious.Parents who support their children in their academic work also positively influence their performance.This takes different forms for families.Some parents might help with homework,or volunteer at school.Others provide a quiet study space,a consistent bedtime or a positive example of hard work and discipline.How parents show support for their child's academic career varies by family and by culture.No matter how it is shown,it is a vital part of a child's academic success to know their parents are behind their efforts.A love of reading in a household can also positively affect a child's academic attainment.Learning new vocabulary,and how to predict,understand and respond to a text are just some of the skills children can learn at home that are important in an academic environment.Reading books,newspapers,magazines and websites with children on a regular basis sets them up for success at school.5.According to the text,parents have an important effect on children's .A.family lifeB.next generationC.academic achievementD.expectations of their jobs6.What may a family with academically successful parents put first?A.Family travel.B.Attending school.C.Historic knowledge.D.Going to museums.7.How may academically successful parents influence their children's academic achievement?A.They can offer help to their children in different ways.B.They may ask teachers to their houses to teach.C.They put great pressure on their children.D.They ask their children to solve problems alone.CMike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years.He bounced around from one position to another,never sure when his last day would be.Sometimes,he lost a position with less than a day's notice.This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late,Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationship with employers.But because Miles had a criminal record,he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.It wasn't until October 2020,nearly a decade after his release from prison,that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company,a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison.Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future,Miles submitted an application.He got an interview, and he then began a new job.Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster,where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%.This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO.Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later,a career in technology.He co-founded four tech companies,one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did.He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college ncaster produces productslike bread.Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however,at just 16 full-time employees,including administration and owners,it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone,including ex-offenders.Dan Jurman,who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty,believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen."None of us can handle these issues alone," he said.8.The purpose of the first paragraph is to show .A.a man's difficulty in living a stable lifeB.an increasingly competitive workplaceC.a decrease in employment opportunitiesD.the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded9.What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.Annoyed.B.Discouraged.C.Amused.D.Embarrassed.10.What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?A.Outgoing,kind and considerate.B.Wealthy but a little bit greedy.C.Humorous,diligent and ambitious.D.Successful and socially responsible.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）We were depressed and things were tough.Mom had a_11_time raising

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 guests staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard，hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors arebusiness 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 pro gramme.”Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition and 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 treehugger. com recently voted Copenhag en the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as a 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.5.

By linking a smart phone to a bicycle.D. By monitoring his or her carbon footprint.7. Who are most likely to enter for the programme?A. The poor local people.B. The environment activists.C. Health-conscious hotel guests.D. Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.CThe Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed-breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving，and eventually make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India’s transport ministe r Nitin Gadkari tweeted.The visual illusions (幻象) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high-speed vehicles.India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,00 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526 for 2020.The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2020, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is “to increase the attention of drivers”, and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India’s decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.8. Accoding to the passage, 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers in India aims to .A. Repalce all speed breakers from highways.B. Encourage essential requirements of speed breakers.C. Check speeding and careless driving on all highways.D. Remind divers to speed down voluntarily for road safety.9. What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India?A. Speeding motorists.B. Floating 3D crossings.C. Free use of visual illusions.D. Bad application of traffic laws.10. The author explains the experiment of 3D zebra crossings in India by .A. giving examples.B. analysing causes.C. providing figures.D. making comparisons.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）Do you ever feel like you are studying a mad rush of one subject after another? When things happen at such a 11 pace, it is easy to lose sight of what you are learning. It is important to 12 every now and then to think about what you’ve been learning.Self reflection means stopping the mad rush and 13 yourself so your brain can evaluate what it has already 14 .

Sometimes you are reminded that the unit is 18 because there is some kind of test or quiz. Use these natural19 as opportunities to stop and reflect.You should find a 20 place—anywhere without noise is OK. This can even be sitting at your desk at school when you finish something 21 and the other students are still working. If you are going to take notes, take out your journal. Write down some notes on things that you 22 learned in this unit. Let your mind think about the notes you have written and make some 23 .Sometimes just pausing to think deeply allows your brain to make connections 24 new information can quickly appear when you 25 it again. Next, think about things that you still wonder about. 26 maybe you learned about a certain body system, but you d on’t 27 how it works with the other body systems. Maybe you learned a new way to solve a math problem, but you’re not sure when to use it.

山西省晋中市和诚中学2021-2022高二英语下学期周练二考试时间：70分钟满分：100分班级________ 考号________ 姓名________一、阅读理解(8*3=24)AThomas Hardy, probably the most searching and knowledgeable novelist of his time, was born on June 2，1840, in Dorsetshire, England. He died on January 11，1928. In his youth, Hardy read much and dreamt of becoming a poet, but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect, winning a prize for design. The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training.For five years Hardy worked hard to practice writing poetry, but when he was twentyseven, he turned to fiction. His first novel finished by 1867, but according to the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it. After he abandoned his first novel, his another novel Desperate Remedies, appeared in 1871. During the next twentyfive years he published ten more novels and two collections of short stories.Under the Greenwood Tree(1872) was never surpassed(超越) in happy and delicate perfection of art. This and his next novel, A Pair of Blue Eyes(1873), began to show deep irony(讽刺) which is so obvious throughout Hardy’s writings.Far from the Madding Crowd(1874) was his first popular success. It shows Hardy’s amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters, an organic part of the action of his story. This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment, which included The Return of the Native, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, his masterpiece, and Jude the Obscure. Not until he was fiftyeight years old was his first collection of poems published, and he was sixtyfour when the first part of his drama The Dynasts surprised the literary world.1．How did Thomas Hardy benefit from his architectural career?A．He could practice writing while working.B．He made a lot of money to support his writing.C．He found material for his novels and poems.D．He applied architectural knowledge in his novels.2．What is Thomas Hardy’s Under the Greenwood Tree considered to be?A．One of his masterworks.B．His first popular success.C．His best novel in perfection of art.D．One of his best collections of poems.3．Which of the following is one of his novels of character and environment?A．Desperate Remedies. B．A Pair of Blue Eyes.C．Tess of the d’Urbervilles. D．The Dynasts.4．What type of writing is this text?A．A novel. B．A biography.C．A book review. D．A news report.BWhen I was three years old, I couldn't speak.It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.One day, I was shadowing(尾随)my mother.She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met.She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿)her mouth's movements until I formed a word.It turned out that I'm deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right.Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I've never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow.Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay y our head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side.That's my reality when I sleep on my “good ear” ，and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.People call my deaf side my “bad ear”， but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don't.In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.Owning a hearing aid hasn't always felt good, however.On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for show and tell.As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren't those for old men？” At that moment, I felt different.It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.But it's not just school kids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens.Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy pletely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almostimpossible to find.And with hearing aids costing around $2，500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things that others take for granted.As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations—I'm lucky.I'm deaf, but I can still hear everything.I've been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human.And when it comes to sleeping, I'm even superhuman.5．How does the author view his hearing difficulty?A．It's a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.B．It gave him a chance to experience something special.C．It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.D．It helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.6．What can be inferred from the passage about the author?A．He was born deaf.B．He is optimistic and helpful.C．His family and classmates have supported him a lot.D．The hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.7．What is the author's attitude toward his life?A．Grateful. B．Anxious.C．Excited. D．Disappointed.8．What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?A．To give advice on life to disabled people.B．To show how difficult life is for disabled people.C．To share his experience of treating a disadvantage with gratitude.D．To show the convenience a hearing aid could bring.二、七选五（5*3=15）Taking care of a sick loved one can put stress on your health.When taking care of the other person, you may ignore your own physical needs.You may find that your own health is failing.If you fall ill, you won't be able to help.__1__ Eat well.When things seem out of control, you may have no time to focus on good eating habits.__2__ Both of those put stress on you.Try to eat as healthily as you can, even if sometimes you have to rely on simple meals like salads.Try to get enough sleep.Sleep can also be difficult when you're caring for a loved one.You may be too worried to sleep at times, or the task may interrupt your sleep.__3__ Therefore, try to get as much as you can.Take time to exercise.Exercising will also help you keep healthy while you're caring for a loved one.Exercise can reduce your stress level.__4__ So you'll need to find ways to work it into your schedule.You can take a short walk a couple of times a day or do yoga at home.__5__ It can be easy to overlook(忽视)the health problems in yourself when you're caring for someone else.If you fall ill, that does not do anyone any good.So it's best to make sure you're in good health.A．Don't ignore signs of illness in yourself.B．Therefore, it's important to take care of yourself.C．You may not eat much, or you may end up eating junk food.D．Not getting enough sleep can make you less effective in the task.E．However, it can be difficult when you are taking care of a loved one.F．The best plan is to visit a doctor regularly to make sure you're in good health.G．Don't be afraid to ask for help when you're ill, as that can help take some of burden off you.三、单句语法填空（10*2=20）1.Before he could run away, she __________(seize)him by the collar。

山西省晋中市和诚高中2020-2021学年高二英语上学期周练试题（8.29）考试时间：60分钟满分：150分一、阅读理解（5*4分=20分）Foreign visitors to the UK might be disappointed when they learn that not everyone there speaks like Harry Potter and his friends. Usually, there’s an assumption (假设)by many non-Brits that everyone in Br itain speaks withwhat’s known as the Received Pronunciation (RP)(标准发音)accent,alsocalled “the Queen’s English” . However,while many people do talk this way, most Britons speak with their own regional accents.Scouse, Glaswegian and the Black Country dialect — from Liverpool, Glasgow and the West Midlands — are just three of the countless non-RP accents that British people speak with. There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart. What is even more disappointing is that not speaking with the RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life.In a 2015 study by the University of South Wales, videos of people reading a passage with three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people. The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded. The lowest-rated accent was the Brummie dialect, native to people from Birmingham, a city whose accent is considered the working class.However,there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking with the RP accent. In fact, doing the opposite may even give you strengths.Kong Seong-jae, 25, is an Internet celebrity from Seoul. After studying in the UK, he picked up severa l regional accents. He’s now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents he’s learned. “British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words, and they become much friendlier. I think it makes a bit of a bond (联系)between local people and foreigners to speak with their local accent,” he said.So if you’re working on perfecting your British accent,try to speak like someone from Liverpool, Glasgow or Birmingham. You may not sound like Harry Potter, but you are likely to make more friends.1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Only “the Queen’s English” is accepted in the UK.B.Many non-Brits usually hold that all Britons speak with the RP accent.C.Foreign visitors are disappointed at their own spoken English.D.Any standard English around the world is also called “the Queen English” .2.What do people think of the Brummie accent?A.Closest to the RP accent.B.Spoken by people of low social status.C.Easy to understand.D.Favored by foreign visitors to the UK.3.What does the underlined phrase , “doing the opposite” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Speaking with regional accents.B.Speaking with the RP accent.C.Speaking the Brummie dialect.D.Speaking like Harry Potter.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.How much British people value the RP accent.B.A comparison between different British accents.C.The impact of regional accents on people’s lives.D.A study about the most intelligent accent in Britain.二、完形填空。

It began ordinarily enough, “How do you like driving a cab?”“It’s OK,” I said. “I make a living and meet int eresting people sometimes. How about you?” However, his reply intrigued me.“I would not change jobs even if I could make twice as much money by doing something else.”I’d never heard that before. “What do you do?”“I’m in the neurology (神经学) department at New York Hospital.”Then I decided to ask for this man’s help. We were not far from the airport.“Could I ask you a big favor? I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a part-time job, but a 15-year-old can’t get hired easily. Is there any possibility that you could get him some kind of summer job?”He didn't respond for a while. Finally, he said, “Well, the medical students have a summer research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school record.” I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag, and he wrote his name and number on it and paid me. It was the last time I had ever seen him.After I nagged (唠叨), yelled, and finally threatened to cut off his pocket money, my son Robert sent off his grades to the guy the next morning.Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, my son was excited. He handed me a letter from my passenger, saying he was to call my passenger’s secretary for an interview.Robert got the job. He did minor tasks, unpaid, but he fitted in well. The following summer, he worked at the hospital again with more responsibility. As high school graduation neared, Dr Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for Robert and he was accepted by Brown University. Finally, Dr Robert Stern, the son of a taxicab driver, became the chief resident (首席住院医师) at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center.Some might call it fate, and I guess it is. But it shows that something as ordinary as a taxi ride can change your life.1．What does the underlined word “intrigued” in the second paragraph mean?A．Interest. B．Confuse.C． Benefit. D．Challenge.2．After the author got the passenger’s information, he ____________.A．helped his son get the summer job immediatelyB．found his son wasn’t interested in getting a summer job C．had difficulty persuading his son to send his school record D．asked for the passenger’s help more than once3．What can we learn according to the last two paragraphs?A．Robert was paid well for his hard work in the summer job.B．Robert achieved little progress during his summer job.C．The small summer job led to Robert’s career.D．Robert became a doctor in Dr Plum’s hospital.4．The author develops the article mainly by ________.A．providing examples B．following the natural time orderC．making comparisons D．presenting causes and effects二、阅读七选五（共5小题，每题2分，共10分）French Universities to Offer More Classes in EnglishFrance aims to bring more foreign students to its universities by offering more classes taught in English.France is home to famous universities like the Sorbonne in Paris and several leading business schools. __5__ But it ranks(排名) behind the US, Britain and Australia in the total number of foreign students who study there.__6__ The country has seen increased competition from Germany, Russia, Canada and China.Under the new plan, France will ease student visa requirements. __7__ Starting next March, foreigners who have earned a French master's degree will be able to receive a residence visa(居留签证). The change is meant to help recent graduates look for workor set up a business in France.__8__ Currently, students in France ─ including foreign students ─ pay (about) 170 euros a year for a bachelor's degree and 243 euros a year for a master's degree. Officials said the low cost of education in France leads students from other countries to believe that the quality of a French education is lower than what other countries offer. Beginning in September 2019, non-European students will pay 2,770 euros a year for a bachelor's degree and 3,770 euros for graduate degrees. __9__France will use the extra money to build better education facilities and increase the number of scholarships for foreign students.A．Student visa applications also will be available online.B．That's why we need to welcome more foreign students.C．The country is a popular choice among non-English-speaking students.D．That is still much less costly than some other European countries, however.E. Increasing the number of foreigners studying in the country would help build French influence overseas.F. France also plans to increase the costs for students who come from outside the European Economic Area.G. Between 2011 and 2016, the number of foreign students studying at French universities fell by 8.5 percent.三、完形填空（共20小题，每题2分，共40分）I first played tennis when I was 5 years old.

However, there are healthy ways of making water tastier.Keep a big bottle of water in the fridge that has been flavored with fresh fruits and herbs,such as chopped lemons,strawberries,apples,or oranges,as these flavor the water and up the intake of nutrients.Mix fruit juices with water to increase water consumption.However,it's better to eat fruit whole as it provides nutrients such as fiber,vitamins,and minerals,which may not always be found in the same quantity once the fruit has been made into a juice.Freeze bottles of water overnight so that the water is still cool later in the day when the sun is beating e fun containers with your children's favorite characters on them to match the fruit or herb that's been used to flavor it for easy reference when grabbing from the freezer for school.By encouraging your children to drink water from an early age,you'll help them form a habit that will be easy to follow through for the rest of their lives.You can set the best example by always reaching for water when you're thirsty or by making sure that there's always cool water readily available,whether in the fridge at home or packed into the car for after-school runs or family outings.4. What does the author intend to tell in the passage？A. Ways to get your kids to drink more water.B. Tips on what to do for your children.C. Hydration is connected with a healthy body.D. Means as to getting water from kinds of fruit.5. Which is NOT the function of drinking water according to the passage？A. Make all our organs nourished.B. Protect your joints and organs.C. Make your skin more beautiful.D. Develop your learning ability.6.

What do you think of the author from the passage？A. Enthusiastic.B. Defensive.C. Subjective.D. Considerate.C"Sorry,but I don't agree with you ..."This is usually followed by unbearable silence and angry tears.I've always found it difficult to disagree with someone,because I don't want to lose a friend.I've found it even harder to accept it when someone disagrees with me,because my ego （自尊心）is hurt.Before the other person gets a chance to explain why she disagrees with me,my usual response would be,"If you aren't able to see my point of view,then what you think isn't worth my time or consideration,either."But now I've come to realize that when a friend disagrees with me,sometimes she is simply saying,"I don't agree with the way things are done."She still respects me as a person,and is only pointing out a better way to look at a matter.However, there may be times when my friend disagrees with me because I'm against the truth.That's when need to listen to what she says.I've learned that one way to help my friend is for me to be open and honest with the other to voice my thoughts and listen to the other carefully.While we can't control how a person will respond to our views,we must learn to disagree with our friends in love.We will never feel that we are better than the other person.And that will help us to be less emotional,and more objective in the way we express our opinions.In the same way,we can also stay open to feedback（反馈）from others,knowing that our friends may be correcting us in love.Good friendships build each other up,sometimes through disagreements and honest opinions.Though I don't like being disagreed with,I'm starting to see the value of such disagreements.8.

（15*3=45）AAfter a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your body relaxes (放松) little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts (变换) back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Though your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend (建议) breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.1 The text suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you _____.A. suffer from poor healthB. feel tired and nervousC. dream more oftenD. breathe quickly2. During REM, _____.A. you move restlesslyB. you start dreamingC. your mind stops workingD. your eyeballs move quickly3 The underlined word "drowsy" in the last paragraph probably means_____.A. lazyB. sleepyC. relaxedD. pleased4. A good title for this text might be _____.A. DreamsB. SleepC. Good HealthD. Work and RestBZinc (锌) is one of about 20 elements necessary for good health. It ispresent in the body in a very small amount, but it makes it possible forimportant chemical actions to be carried out in cells. Scientists are justbeginning to discover how zinc and other elements work.Researchers first studied zinc as a way to speed recovery. Dr. WaltorPowys, formerly with the United States Air Force, noted that the laboratoryanimals recovered faster when some matters were added to their food. One ofthese matters was zinc. Dr. Powys later tested the zinc treatment on anAmerican airman recovering from medical operations. The airman who receivedzinc sulphate (硫酸盐) recovered in half of the usual time. Other doctorsstudied persons who had a number of strange disorders. The doctors learnedthat all of these problems were caused by lack of zinc in the body. Theytreated these disorders successfully by giving the patients zinc sulphate.The amount of zinc in the body can be found by examining blood and hair.A lack of this important element is not uncommon among people in bothindustrial and developing countries. Zinc is found in most high protein (蛋白质) foods, such as meat, milk, fish and eggs. It is also found in whole grains. But many people do not eat enough of these foods. Food markets should add these elements so that more people could get needed amount of these necessary matters.5. Which of the following statements is true?A. Scientists found how zinc works a long time ago.B. People need a large amount of zinc to be healthy.C. Zinc allows important chemical actions to take place in cells.D. Zinc must be used in the course of medical operation.6. One of the results from the study of zinc is that _________.A. there's only a little zinc in the human bodyB. food rich in protein contains more zincC. some physical problems are caused by lack of zincD. any patient who receives zinc sulphate gets well immediately7. The best title for the passage may be ________.A. A New DiscoveryB. Zinc and HealthC. How Zinc WorksD. Add Zinc to Your FoodCSkin - divingSkin - diving(潜泳) is a new sport today. This sport takes you into a wonderful new world. It is like a visit to the moon. When you are under water, it is easy for you to climb big rocks because you are no longer heavy. Here, under water, everything is blue and green. During the day, there is plenty of light. When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have tanks (罐) of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. But you must be careful when you dive in deep water.To catch fish is one of the most interesting parts of this sport. Besides,there are more uses for skin - diving. You can clean ships without taking them out of water. You can get many things from the deep sea.Now you see that skin -diving is both useful and interesting.8. Skin- diving is a new sport. It can take you to________.A. the moonB. a new world of landC. the mountainsD. deep water9. In deep water________.A. there is plenty of lightB. there is no light at allC. you can find a lot of blue fishD. everything looks blue and green10.

Skin - diving is a new sport.B. Skin - diving is like visiting the moon.C. The only use of skin - diving is to have more fun.D. Skin - diving is not only interesting but useful.DNo one is very glad to hear that his body has to be cut open by surgery and part of it taken out. Today, however, we need not worry about feeling pain during the operation. The sick person falls into a kind of sleep, andwhen he awakes the operation is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything. The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestly discovered a gas, which is now called “laughing gas”. Laughing gas became known in America. Yo ung men and women went to Parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells noticed that people did not seem to feel pain when they were using the gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him. Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Wells' teeth. Wells felt no pain at all. As he did not know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out. Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.13. Long ago, operations had to be done while the sick man ___________ .A. could feel nothingB. could not want anythingC. could feel everythingD. could do anything14. Using the laughing gas, the people did not seem ___________ .A. to be afraid of anythingB. to feel painC. to want to go to the partiesD. to be ill15. If a man took less laughing gas than he should have when an operation went on he ___ .A. felt nothingB. felt very comfortableC. still felt painD. would die二、语法填空。

和诚中学2020-2021学年高二周练英语考试时间：60分钟满分：150分班级________ 考号________ 姓名________一、阅读理解（5*4分=20分）Foreign visitors to the UK might be disappointed when they learn that not everyone there speaks like Harry Potter and his friends. Usually, there’s an assumption (假设)by many non-Brits that everyone in Br itain speaks with what’s known as the Received Pronunciation (RP)(标准发音)accent,also called “the Queen’s English” . However,while many people do talk this way, most Britons speak with their own regional accents.Scouse, Glaswegian and the Black Country dialect — from Liverpool, Glasgow and the West Midlands — are just three of the countless non-RP accents that British people speak with. There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart. What is even more disappointing is that not speaking with the RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life.In a 2015 study by the University of South Wales, videos of people reading a passage with three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people. The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded. The lowest-rated accent was the Brummie dialect, native to people from Birmingham, a city whose accent is considered the working class.However,there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking with the RP accent. In fact, doing the opposite may even give you strengths.Kong Seong-jae, 25, is an Internet celebrity from Seoul. After studying in the UK, he picked up several regional accents. He’s now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents he’s learned. “British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words, and they become much friendlier.I think it makes a bit of a bond (联系)between local people and foreigners to speak with their local accent,” he said.So if you’re working on perfecting your British accent,try to speak like someone from Liverpool, Glasgow or Birmingham. You may not sound like Harry Potter, but you are likely to make more friends.1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Only “the Queen’s English” is accepted in the UK.B.Many non-Brits usually hold that all Britons speak with the RP accent.C.Foreign visitors are disappointed at their own spoken English.D.Any standard English around the world is also called “the Queen English” .2.What do people think of the Brummie accent?A.Closest to the RP accent.B.Spoken by people of low social status.C.Easy to understand.D.Favored by foreign visitors to the UK.3.What does the underlined phrase , “doing the opposite” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Speaking with regional accents.B.Speaking with the RP accent.C.Speaking the Brummie dialect.D.Speaking like Harry Potter.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.How much British people value the RP accent.B.A comparison between different British accents.C.The impact of regional accents on people’s lives.D.A study about the most intelligent accent in Britain.二、完形填空。

She plays a winning showgirl with a golden singing voice designed for Hollywood stars. You can also see how Gene Kelly （the hero）made a hit in the timeless “Singin’in the Rain”.The Sound of Music（1965）It hit the big screen in 1965 and became an early blockbuster. It’s one of those movies that everybody watches again and again.

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 measuringhow much power is being generated for the hotel.The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guests staying at the hotel 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 and 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 treehugger. com 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 a 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.5.

Health-conscious hotel guests.D. Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.CThe Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed-breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving，and eventually make its deadly roads a li ttle safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India’s transport minister Nitin Gadkari tweeted.The visual illusions （幻象） are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high-speed vehicles.India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,00 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526 for The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is “to increase the attention of drivers”, and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India’s decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.8. Accoding to the passage, 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers in India aims to .A. Repalce all speed breakers from highways.B. Encourage essential requirements of speed breakers.C. Check speeding and careless driving on all highways.D. Remind divers to speed down voluntarily for road safety.9. What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India？A. Speeding motorists.B. Floating 3D crossings.C. Free use of visual illusions.D. Bad application of traffic laws.10. The author explains the experiment of 3D zebra crossings in India by .A. giving examples.B. analysing causes.C. providing figures.D. making comparisons.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）Do you ever feel like you are studying a mad rush of one subject after another？When things happen at such a 11 pace, it is easy to lose sight of what you are learning.

It began ordinarily enough, “How do you like driving a cab?”“It’s OK,” I said. “I make a living and meet interestin g people sometimes. How about you?” However, his reply intrigued me.“I would not change jobs even if I could make twice as much money by doing something else.”I’d never heard that before. “What do you do?”“I’m in the neurology (神经学) department at New Yo rk Hospital.”Then I decided to ask for this man’s help. We were not far from the airport.“Could I ask you a big favor? I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a part-time job, but a 15-year-old can’t get hir ed easily. Is there any possibility that you could get him some kind of summer job?”He didn't respond for a while. Finally, he said, “Well, the medical students have a summer research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school record.”I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag, and he wrote his name and number on it and paid me. It was the last time I had ever seen him.After I nagged (唠叨), yelled, and finally threatened to cut off his pocket money, my son Robert sent off his grades to the guy the next morning.Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, my son was excited. He handed me a letter from my passenger, say ing he was to call my passenger’s secretary for an interview.Robert got the job. He did minor tasks, unpaid, but he fitted in well. The following summer, he worked at the hospital again with more responsibility. As high school graduation neared, Dr Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for Robert and he was accepted by Brown University. Finally, Dr Robert Stern, the son of a taxicab driver, became the chief resident (首席住院医师) at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center.Some might call it fate, and I guess it is. But it shows that something as ordinary as a taxi ride can change your life.1．What does the underlined word “intrigued” in the second paragraph mean?A．Interest. B．Confuse.C． Benefit. D．Challenge.2．After the author got the passenger’s information, he ____________.A．helped his son get the summer job immediatelyB．found his son wasn’t interested in getting a summer jobC．had difficulty persuading his son to send his school recordD．asked for the passenger’s help more than once3．What can we learn according to the last two paragraphs?A．Robert was paid well for his hard work in the summer job.B．Robert achieved little progress during his summer job.C．The small summer job led to Robert’s career.D．Robert became a doctor in Dr Plum’s hospital.4．The author develops the article mainly by ________.A．providing examples B．following the natural time order C．making comparisons D．presenting causes and effects二、阅读七选五（共5小题，每题2分，共10分）French Universities to Offer More Classes in English France aims to bring more foreign students to its universities by offering more classes taught in English.France is home to famous universities like the Sorbonne in Paris and several leading business schools. __5__ But it ranks(排名) behind the US, Britain and Australia in the total number of foreign students who study there.__6__ The country has seen increased competition from Germany, Russia, Canada and China.Under the new plan, France will ease student visa requirements. __7__ Starting next March, foreigners who have earned a French master's degree will be able to receive a residence visa(居留签证).

It’s bigger than Texas and growing. The way to clean it up now is t o catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes a 62-mile-long floating barrier that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42 % over 10 years.Easy-On ShoesIn 2020, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge.

Sometimes I wondered, lying awake at night, how many hearts beat inside those walls. With all that lovely national park habitat protected for their use, why did the animals need to live in my house?My latest essay “The indoor wilds at outdoor parks,” revisits my experiences with wild (non-human!) roommates and officemates in Rocky Mountain National Park. At first, they were considered annoying but not dangerous. Attitudes changed dramatically when hantavirus (汉他病毒) came on the scene, and suddenly those cute, non-housebroken deer mice became a threat. When I moved on to Canyonlands National Park, I found that everyeffort had been made to seal off my house from four-footed intruders (入侵者). These efforts mostly worked and later employees moved into new housing. But somehow a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown i tself in my toilet. I’m not even going to get started about my coworkers’ experiences with other much scarier animals.The Beaver Meadows Vistor Center in the story was designed by Tailiesin Associated Architects, Frank Lloyed Wright’s firm, after Wright’s death. Working there, I always thought the building was strange. I recently revisited the building while researching a children’s book I am writing about the park. I think I get it now, at least a little.4. What does the underlined word “their” in Paragr aph 1 refer to?A. Some park visitors’.B. Endangered animals’.C. The author’s coworkers’.D. The author’s wild roommates’.5. Why did people show a change in attitude towards deer mice?A. Because a virus was spreading.B. Because people were hurt by them.C. Because people saw a really cute one.D. Because they protected people’s houses.6. What can we infer about the living conditions of the author’s coworkers?A. They were unknown to the author.B. They were acceptable to the author.C. They were no better than the author’s.D. They were much better than the author’s.7. After visiting the Beaver Meadows Vistor Center again, the author .A. could appreciate it betterB. finished a children’s bookC. did research on national parksD. knew it was designed byWrightCIncreasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport” idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announcements and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” without being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland —a country where the tourism slogan is “Silence, Please” —became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announcements for flights are made only in boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements i n all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circumstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved flight information display systems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the wayairports communicate with passengers.At Munich Airport, InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of choice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers can tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking times to their destinations.Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple.There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements, along with boarding calls.But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has been adopted in Helsinki.8. What is Angela Gittens, opinion on the silent airport concept?A. It makes airport noise-free.B. It is intended for passengers’ benefit.C. It has changed international airports’ rep utation.D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.9. What should passengers pay close attention to at Helsinki Airport?A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.C. The shops’ opening hours.D. The “you are here” display.10. Why is Munich Airport mentioned in the next?A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce InfoGate kiosks.C. To prove Heikki Koski’s words.D. To be compared with Helsinki Airport.二、完形填空（每题2分，共40分）That was my first ballet performance and I was the lead role. A huge blackcurtain 11 me from the crowd.

山西省晋中市和诚高中有限公司2020-2021学年高二上学期周练英语试题(8.29)含答案
和诚中学2020-2021学年高二周练英语考试时间：60分钟满分：150分班级________考号________姓名________一、阅读理解（5*4分=20分）Foreign visitors to the UK might be disappointed when they learn that not everyone there speaks like Harry Potter and his ually,there’s an assumption(假设)by many non-Brits that everyone in Br itain speaks with what’s known as the Received Pronunciation(RP)(标准发音)accent,also called“the Queen’s English”.However,while many people do talk this way,most Britons speak with their own regional accents.Scouse,Glaswegian and the Black Country dialect—from Liverpool,Glasgow and the West Midlands—are just three of the countless non-RP accents that British people speak with.There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30kilometers apart.What is even more disappointing is that not speaking with the RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life.In a2015study by the University of South Wales,videos of people reading a passage with three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people.The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded.The lowest-rated accent was the Brummie dialect,native to people from Birmingham,a city whose accent is considered the working class.However,there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking with the RP accent.In fact,doing the opposite may even give you strengths.Kong Seong-jae,25,is an Internet celebrity from Seoul.After studying in the UK,he picked up several regional accents.He’s now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents he’s learned.“British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words,and they become much friendlier.I think it makes a bit of a bond(联系)between local people and foreigners to speak with their local accent,”he said.So if you’re working on perfecting your British accent,try to speak like someone from Liverpool,Glasgow or Birmingham.You may not sound like Harry Potter,but you are likely to make more friends.1.What can we learn from Paragraph1?A.Only“the Queen’s English”is accepted in the UK.B.Many non-Brits usually hold that all Britons speak with the RP accent.C.Foreign visitors are disappointed at their own spoken English.D.Any standard English around the world is also called“the Queen English”.2.What do people think of the Brummie accent?A.Closest to the RP accent.B.Spoken by people of low social status.C.Easy to understand.D.Favored by foreign visitors to the UK.3.What does the underlined phrase,“doing the opposite”in Paragraph4refer to?A.Speaking with regional accents.B.Speaking with the RP accent.C.Speaking the Brummie dialect.D.Speaking like Harry Potter.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.How much British people value the RP accent.B.A comparison between different British accents.C.The impact of regional accents on people’s lives.D.A study about the most intelligent accent in Britain.二、完形填空。
