和诚学校2017-2018学年高二8月月考英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(共二节,满分60分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项.ATen years ago I used to be very fit. I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks。

In those days I didn’t earn very much。

I had a job in an office. It wasn't a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight,too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more。

There’s a lot of stress in my job. Perhaps that is why I started drinking more than I used to。

During the 14th century, he travelled about 75, 000 miles in search of knowledge and for the love of travel. To share the le arning and research so highly valued by Islamic (伊斯兰教的) culture, the ruler of Morocco, Abu Inan Faris, wanted Ibn Battuta’s worldwide travels recorded and published when he r eturned home to Morocco after almost 30 years. Ibn Juzayy, a Secretary, was appointed to write down Ibn Battuta’s experie nces. His travel journal, The Rihla, documents this extraordin ary achievement. It gives us a first-hand account of life in the 14th-century Muslim world. The original book, handwritten in Arabi c, can be viewed today at the National Library in .The early 14th century was a favorable age for a Muslim trave ller. It was nearing the end of the Golden Age of Islam, one of the great explosions of scientific and cultural achievements in world history. Caravans and sea lanes created transportation and communication networks that spread across continents, i ncluding Europe, Africa and Asia. Towns and cities were regul arly visited by merchants, traders, doctors, artists, craftsmen, scholars and pilgrims (朝圣者) carrying goods and ideas. All of these promoted the excha nge of goods and ideas on a scale not seen previously in worl d history. As an educated man with professional legal skills, Ib n Battuta enjoyed kindness, companionship and offers of emp loyment throughout the Islamic world.Journey to Mecca describes the 5, 000-mile journey Ibn Battuta made in 1325 and 1326 from his hom etown Tangier, Morocco, to reach Mecca, in what is now the of , to make the pilgrimage. During this dangerous and aweso me 18-month pilgrimage, he met many hindrances as he was attacke d by robbers, troubled by thirst, and forced to go back to his r oute due to war along the Red Sea. Joining the legendary Da mascus Caravan with thousands of pilgrims leaving for Mecca , he completed the final section of what would be his first of six journeys to .The goal of the film, Journey to Mecca, was to tell the remark able story of Ibn Battuta and to promote a better understanding of Islam in the West, said the producers.4. We can conclude that Abu Inan Faris probably thought Ibn Battuta’s travel experiences ________.A. preciousB. questionableC. mysteriousD. ridiculous5. What can we learn about Ibn Battuta from the text?A. He wrote the travel journal, The Rihla, by himself.B. He travelled all the way with the legendary Damascus Cara van during his first journey.C. He was a very successful businessman.D. He had to overcome varieties of difficulties while traveling.6. The underlined word “hindrances” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “________”.A. tricksB. friendsC. barriersD. opportunities7. In which section of a newspaper can we possibly find this p assage?A. HistoryB. TravelC. EconomyD. EntertainmentCHow much weight a baby gains during its first month could determine its IQ, as a new research suggests. The study found t hat children who gain more weight, and whose heads grow qu ickly during the first month of life, tend to have a higher IQ wh en they start school.Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in ^ studied 13,800 children who were born at full-term. They found that those who put on 40% of their birth wei ght in the first four weeks had an IQ 1.5 points higher than tho se who only put on 15% of their birth weight. Those who expe rienced the biggest growth in head circumference (头围) also had the highest IQs by the age of six.“Head circumference is an indicator of brain volume, so a gre ater increase in head circumference in a newly-born baby suggests more rapid brain growth,” says the led aut hor of the study, Dr. Lisa Smithers.She added, “Overall, newly-born children who grew faster in the first four weeks had high er IQ scores later in life. Those children who gained the most weight scored especially high on verbal (言语) IQ at age 6. This may be because the neural (神经的) structures for verbal IQ develop earlier in life, which mean s the rapid weight gain during the first month could be having a direct cognitive benefit for the children.”Previous studies have shown the association between early p ostnatal (产后的) diet and IQ, but this is the first study of its kind to focus on the IQ benefits of rapid weight gain in the first month of life. Dr . Smithers says the study further highlights the need for succe ssful feeding of newly-born babies. “We know that many mothers have difficulty esta blishing breastfeeding in the first week of their babies’life,” Dr . Smithers said.“The findings of our study suggest that if babies are having fe eding problems, there needs to be early intervention (干预) in the management of that feeding.”8. The study mainly shows that ________.A. head circumference is certainly connected to IQ.B. babies’ heads grow quickly during the first month.C. full-term babies tend to be cleverer than premature babies. (早产儿)D. the more weight newly-born babies gain, the higher IQ they are likely to have.9. How did the researchers get their conclusion from the study ?A. By asking questions.B. By making comparison.C. By having a discussion.D. By referring to documents.10. According to Dr. Lisa Smithers, we can learn that _______ _.A. a kid’s verbal IQ scores reach its highest at age six.B. this study helps parents find feeding problems.C. quick weight gain benefits newly born babies on verbal IQ.D. this study reminds parents of the need for breastfeeding.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)When I was in my twenties, I travelled alone through the .

和诚中学2018-2019学年高二知识清单、易错题目定时训练(29)时间:60分钟总分100分 2019年6月2日一、阅读理解(每题4分,共40分)AI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me.I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬)under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks. ”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t al ways agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.1. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.2. The author tidied up the room most probably because .A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so3. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.4. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll never lose weight--I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can't change the body type we are born with, we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different mute. If you do yoga, try a Tai chi class. If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is you body telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury.

Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomplishing such a thing without artificial aid---we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface wi th its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we,d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’But fortunately there is an alternative : cornflour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a“non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子)in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick Liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink--and take a shower afterward!8. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.9. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.10. What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth trying.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was___11___.

We have two different opinions.Some students thought it’s a good idea to keep pets because many old people who will live alone at home can get some comfort from them. Besides, get along well with animals will make our life interesting. However, other students are against the idea. In their opinions, if too many people keep pets at home, it’s harmful for the environment. What is worse, pets may make too many noise and even attack people.As for me, I’m in favor of the former. I don’t think it’s bad for us to keep pets at home.

山西晋中和诚高中有限公司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 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。

山西省晋中市和诚高中2018-2019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 thefairness,consideration and respect that he treats all beings.No matter who we are,whether a street cleaner 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 preparetheir 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 in them 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 onchildren'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 2015,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 products like 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 sociallyresponsible.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

Brain Research shows that positive emotions are good for our bodies, minds, and brains.Positive emotions help us see more possibilities and take in more information. They increase our ability to develop skills. 26Positive emotions balance negative emotions out. People who often feel grateful and appreciative are happier, less stressed, and less depressed.

Each of her objects had its place, but mine alway s hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothin g over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both g ot tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed! ” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed tog ether for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered i t. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away hergrandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly cra wled (爬)under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was something she should not go through alo ne. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side.I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I lo oked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn ’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: givi ng in, cleaning up and holding on.1. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. She couldn’t find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.2. The author tidied up the room most probably because .A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she hated herself for being so messyC. she wanted to show her careD. she was asked by Kate to do so3. How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By showing differences.C. By describing a process.D. By following time order.4. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend KateB. Hard Work Pays OffC. How to Be OrganizedD. Learning to Be RoommatesBThere have always been a lot of commonly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believ e that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, whil e others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will tur n into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll never lose weight--I come from a fat familyWrong! While we can't change the body type we are born with , we can't blame our genes for making us fat. There's plenty o f evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason i s that they share the same habit of eating too much and exerc ise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism(新陈代谢).In fact, although fat people consume more energy than sli m people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake mom acc urately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. T he key is to develop a balanced and varied program that's fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a diff erent mute. If you do yoga, try a Tai chi class. If you like swipi ng, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is you bod y telling you something's wrong, and continuing to exercise co uld lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapt ing to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches sho uld disappear relatively quickly. If they don't, rest and seek me dical advice.5. What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from becoming fat.D. It is the consequence of people's unbalanced lifestyle.6. According to the author, how can we make exercise mom i nteresting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercis e.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exer cise.7. What is the author's opinion about "No pain, no gain" in exe rcising?A. Keeping lit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body .CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested h umans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever accomp lishing such a thing without artificial aid---we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down thr ough our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure tha t makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One ofthe most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicus basilicus , a lizard (蜥蜴)native to Central and South America. It can run across wat er for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by ra pidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will tak e as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. F or humans to do this, we,d need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate w hitting. ’’But fortunately there is an alternative : cornflour. By adding en ough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does ta ke a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian” liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子)in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each st ep, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequate ly thick Liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and bette r read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sin k--and take a shower afterward!8. What do we know about Basilicus basilicus from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speed.D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.9. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passa ge?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into sol id.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the wat er to move rapidly.10. What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of humans’ w alking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth tryi ng.C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was___11___.

Sometimes I wondered, lying awa ke at night, how many hearts beat inside those walls. With all that lovely national park habitat protected for their use, why di d the animals need to live in my house?My latest essay “The indoor wilds at outdoor parks,” revisits m y experiences with wild (non-human!) roommates and officemates in . At first, they were c onsidered annoying but not dangerous. Attitudes changed dra matically 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 every effort had bee n made to seal off my house from four-footed intruders (入侵者). These efforts mostly worked and later employees moved i nto new housing. But somehow a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown itself in my toilet. I’m not eve n going to get started about my coworkers’ experiences with o ther much scarier animals.The in the story was designed by Tailiesin Associated Archi tects, Frank Lloyed Wright’s firm, after Wright’s death.

It is to reduce noise pollution, su ch as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful up dates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high vo ices, competing gate announcements and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council Internatio nal (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” with out being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board i n the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland — a country where the tou rism slogan is “Silence,Please”— became the most recent ai rport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announce ments 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 in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circ umstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that impr oved flight information display systems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changin g the way airports communicate with passengers.At , 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 ot her hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers ca n tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approxima te 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 gat es, as has been adopted in .8. What is Angela Gittens, opinion on the silent airport concep t?A. It makes airport noise-free.B. It is intended for passengers’ benefit.C. It has changed international airports’ reputation.D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.9. What should passengers pay close attention to at ?A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.C. The shops’ opening hours.D. The “you are here” display.10. Why is mentioned in the next?A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce InfoGate kiosks.C. To prove Heikki Kosk i’s words.D.

It’s bigger than and gr owing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instea d, 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 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dre am is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my s hoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge.

Sometimes I wondered, lying awake at night, how many hearts be at 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 . At first, they were considered annoying but not da ngerous. 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 every effort 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 someho w a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown itself in my toilet. I’m not ev en going to get started about my coworkers’ experiences with other much scarier animals. The in the story was designed by Tailiesin Associated Architects, Frank Lloyed Wright’s fir m, after Wright’s death. Working there, I always thought the building was strange. I recently r evisited 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 Paragraph 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 again, the author .A. could appreciate it betterB. finished a children’s bookC. did research on national parksD. knew it was designed by WrightCIncreasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport” idea. It i s 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 announce ments and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growin g desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” witho ut 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 i n boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circumstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved flight information display s ystems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicat e with passengers.At , InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of ch oice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers c an tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking times to their destin ations.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 .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’ reputation.D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.9. What should passengers pay close attention to at ?A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.C. The shops’ opening hours.D. The “you are here” display.10. Why is mentioned in the next?A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce InfoGate kiosks.C. To prove Heikki Koski’s words.D.

Watch a show at Performing Arts Center.BNot many parents realize that by encouraging their children to drink plenty of fresh water,they're helping them build healthie r,stronger bodies.Water is the ideal drink to prevent thirst and ensure hydration(水合作用).Our bodies need water to regulate body temperature and to provide the means for nutrients to travel to all our organs. Water also transports oxygen to our cells,removes waste,and protects joints and organs.Poor hydration can affect a child's concentration levels, memory and learning ability."While most parents know that everyone should be drinking 6 ~8 glasses of water each day,they often find it difficult to get t heir children to drink water,"says Megan Pentz-Kluyts,a leading registered nutrition coach. However, there ar e 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,strawberri es,apples,or oranges,as these flavor the water and up the inta ke of nutrients.Mix fruit juices with water to increase water consumption.How ever,it's better to eat fruit whole as it provides nutrients such a s fiber,vitamins,and minerals,which may not always be found i n 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 contain ers with your children's favorite characters on them to match t he fruit or herb that's been used to flavor it for easy referencewhen 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 throug h for the rest of their lives.You can set the best example by al ways 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?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. The author recommended fruit juices .A. because fruit juices are better than waterB. to make kids consume more waterC. because kids prefer juices to waterD. to show fruit juices are rich in vitamins7. 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 difficul t to disagree with someone,because I don't want to lose a frie nd.I've found it even harder to accept it when someone disagr ees with me,because my ego(自尊心)is hurt.Before the other person gets a chance to explain why she dis agrees with me,my usual response would be,"If you aren't abl e to see my point of view,then what you think isn't worth my ti me or consideration,either."But now I've come to realize that when a friend disagrees with me,sometimes she is simply say ing,"I don't agree with the way things are done."She still respe cts me as a person,and is only pointing out a better way to loo k at a matter.However, there may be times when my friend dis agrees with me because I'm against the truth.That's when nee d to listen to what she says.I've learned that one way to help my friend is for me to be ope n and honest with the other to voice my thoughts and listen to the other carefully.While we can't control how a person will re spond to our views,we must learn to disagree with our friends in love.We will never feel that we are better than the other per son.And that will help us to be less emotional,and more object ive in the way we express our opinions.In the same way,we c an also stay open to feedback(反馈)from others,knowing that our friends may be correcting us in l ove.Good friendships build each other up,sometimes through disa greements and honest opinions.Though I don't like being disa greed with,I'm starting to see the value of such disagreements .8.

However, there are healthy ways of making watertastier.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 inta ke 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 i n 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 th e fruit or herb that's been used to flavor it for easy reference when grabbing from the freezer f or school.By encouraging your children to drink water from an early age,you'll help them form a habit th at will be easy to follow through for the rest of their lives.You can set the best example by alw ays reaching for water when you're thirsty or by making sure that there's always cool water re adily 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?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. The author recommended fruit juices .A. because fruit juices are better than waterB. to make kids consume more waterC. because kids prefer juices to waterD. to show fruit juices are rich in vitamins7. 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 t ears.I've always found it difficult to disagree with someone,because I don't want to lose a frie nd.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 respo nse would be,"If you aren't able to see my point of view,then what you think isn't worth my tim e or consideration,either."But now I've come to realize that when a friend disagrees with me,s ometimes 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 t o 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 re spond 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 objec tive 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. When a friend disagreed with him,the author used to .A. be unhappyB. argue with the friendC. break up with the friendD. explain things calmly9. The author will listen to a friend when .A. he is against the truthB. he doesn't tell the truthC. he is respected by a friendD. he does things in the wrong way10.

How to deal with disagreements.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)Kindness is a simple answer in a sometimes difficult and challenging world.For a long time it has been my work to___11___and appreciate all people and to___12___others to do the sam e.When my granddaughter Skylar was young and we'd go out,we had a(n)___13___called "Wh o can make the most people smile?"

和诚学校2017-2018学年高二英语易错题目定时训练(18)55分钟100分李传合第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,AHow Did the Ancient Chinese Keep Food Warm in Winter?Facilities like electric rice cookers, microwaves, and electric kettles, make it easy for people to keep food warm and enjoy a comfortable winter. So how did Chinese people in ancient times keep food warm in winter without these? In fact, ancient Chinese people used their own methods of heat preservation as early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties.☆“Wen Ding”, ancient rice cookerOne of the major functions of an electric rice cooker is to keep food warm. The “Wen Ding”, an ancient cooking container, served the same purpose, but instead of using electric energy, the ancient cooking container preserved heat by burning fuels like charcoal.The “Wen Ding” unearthed in Nanjing in 1989 is thought to be the oldest of its kind discovered in China, dating back to the Stone Age. The craftsmanship of making the “Wen Ding” was developed in the Bronze Age. The bronze Ding from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties took on different shapes and structures.☆“Ran Lu”, ancient small hot potThe “Ran Lu” is a small size cooking vessel (器皿) made of bronze, which can be divided into three parts. A charcoal stove forms the main structure, with a bottom tray to hold charcoal ashes, and a movable cup at the top. Some experts have concluded that the vessel’s structure suggests it may have been used as a small hot pot and that these vessels became popular in the Warring States Period (475—221 B.C.).☆Bronze You, ancient kettleThe Bronze You was one of the most common wine containers during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. The Bronze You can also be used to warm wine. For example, the Bronze You with beast mask design, unearthed in Jiangxi Province, has an opening where charcoal could be placed. Just as people today can’t do without an electric kettle, the Bronze You allowed people to enjoy a hot drink.☆Bronze Yan, ancient steamerAlthough the “Wen Ding” was effective at keeping food warm, the ancient Chinese people later found that its burning process produced pollution. As a result, the Bronze Yan made with a two-tier structure and used to steam rice and other grains. After the Eastern Han Dynasty (25A.D.-220A.D.), further improvements to the Bronze Yan led to the modern-day steamer.21. When did the “Ran Lu” become popular?A. In the Zhou Dynasty.B. In the Eastern Han Dynasty.C. In the Warring States Period.D. In the Stone Age.22. The Bronze You, unearthed in Jiangxi Province, has an opening to .A. place charcoalB. store wineC. pour waterD. hold charcoal ashes23. What is the unique advantage of the Bronze Yan?A. It is warm.B. It is convenient.C. It is useful.D. It is environment-friendly.BI am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he will learn to love himself and will be successful in his own way.Several weeks ago, I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines. I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he should concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again.I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me. I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up. Could he be more intent while standing up?This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success. This child would have the discipline to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits, and all you can do is loving and accepting them. As parents, throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids’ best cheerleaders, guiding them and helping them find their way.I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Obviously, he is concentrating just in h is own way and not mine. We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations. There is nothing sweeter than being individual and unique. It makes us free and ha ppy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.24. At the beginning, the author tried to keep his son seated in order to make him .A. finish his homework on timeB. keep silent in the roomC. pay more attention to his studyD. get right answers25. Inspired by the case of his son, the author began to doubt .A. the old form of educationB. the importance of parentsC. the relationship between kids and their parentsD. the good grades of some kids26. According to the passage, which of the following statements is RIGHT?A. We should help kids correct their wrong ways.B. Parents should love and accept their kids.C. Parents should study their kids’ DNA.D. Kids should be taught to behave themselves.27. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. Study Hard and You’ll Be Successful.B. Be Friendly to Your Children.C. Parents’Help with Their Children’s Study.D. Children’s Success in Their Own Style.CUS scientists say they have poured cold water on the theory that washing hands with hot water kills more germs (细菌) than unheated water. The small study of 20 people found using water at 15C (59F) left hands as clean as water heated to 38C (100F).National Health Service (NHS) recommends that people wash their hands in either cold or warmwater. In this study, scientists at Rutgers University-New Brunswick wanted to find out if popular assumptions about the benefits of warm or hot water and official guidance on hot water — given to the food industry in the US — held true. They asked 20 people to wash their hands 20 times each with water that was 15C (59F), 26C (79F) or 38 degrees (100F). V olunteers were also asked to experiment with varying amounts of soap. Before they started the tests, their hands were covered in harmless bugs. Researchers say there was no difference in the amount of bugs removed as the temperature of the water or the amount of soap changed.Prof Donald Schaff ner said: “People need to feel comfortable when they are w ashing their hands but as far as effectiveness goes, this study shows us that the temperature of the water used did not matter.”However, the researchers accept their study is small and say more extensive work is needed to determine the best ways to remove harmful bacteria.In the UK, NHS experts say people can use cold or hot water to wash their hands. They say hands should be washed for at least 20 seconds and stress the importance of using enough soap to cover the whole surface of the hands. Their guidance focuses on rubbing hands together in various ways to make sure each surface of each hand is clean.28. What does the underlined phrase “poured cold water” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Proved.B. Contradicted.C. Created.D. Accepted.29. After they washed their hands with either hot or cold water, .A. volunteers all didn’t feel very comfortableB. volunteers all talked about American food industryC. volunteers still had much germ on their handsD. volunteers nearly had the same amount of germ removed30. How do the researchers feel about their study?A. It is popular.B. It is convincing.C. It is incomplete.D. It is abstract. 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

It got out of control when I went to law school.I’d made a deci sion a thousand times:I’m going to lose weight now. But what motivated (激发)me to get serious about it was turning 30. I weighed 414 pounds.I was always tired. Some of my family members have suffered from heart disease, and I was frightened. I also wanted to look better. So after my birthday, I walked into the office of a weight loss doctor.She was very understanding. Her focus was on balanced meals and she wanted me to exercise.Walking was all I could do at first. I started by walking a few blocks and gradually increased the distance, until one weekend,I heard myself saying,“Wow,this seems pretty easy.” So I started to run.I was losing nine or ten pounds a month,and I had more energy. I started to think about the New York City Marathon. For years,I watched the runners and thought,“This looks like fun,but I could never do that.” But now I realized that maybe I could. I joined the New York Road Runners. I ran a 10km,then a half marathon. I still wasn’t confident I could run a full 26 miles. But I told mys elf I was going to do it,no matter what.By my 33rd birthday,I was down to 180 pounds. I started formally training for the marathon. And on the morning of November 1,I stood on the Verrazano Bridge in Staten Island with more than 40,000 other runners,waiting for the event to start.It was unbelievable to have the audience cheering me on,handing me cups of water. And I crossed the finish line. My friends sprayed (向……喷射) me with beer,as if I’d won the Super Bowl. And at that moment,I knew:If I set my mind to something,nothing is impossible.21. The underlined phrase “blowing up” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.A. going weakerB. growing highC. becoming healthierD. becoming fatter22. From the passage we can know that the author _____________.A. controlled his weight at collegeB. may have a family history of heart attackC. was satisfied with his figure as a kidD. began to consider losing weight at 3023. Which of the following sayings can best summarize the passage?A.A good beginning is half done.B.Pride comes before a fall.C.Where there is a will,there is a way.D.Practice makes perfect.三、七选五(每题3分,共15分)No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words: I’m sorry. Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say. ____24 It’s not about winning.Friendships are not like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser. When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you “win”the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong, or by making him be the first to apologize.In reality, you’ll BOTH LOSE if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you will BOTH WIN if you find a way to heal it.● 25You may have heard th e expression “His pride stood in the way.” It is usually used to describe a person who is so determined to be “right” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever. 26 Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember: the sadness of losing a friend.● Take the first step.Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship? 27 You don’t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. Maybe you’re sorry that you let the fight goes for so long, or that you overreacted to something your friend did. If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same. 28A.Then try to be the first to apologize.B.Stop thinking about your pride.C.It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument.D.Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about.E.Here are some things to keep in mind.F.There are some special cases when you should not be the one to apologize first.G.Once you have both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better.四、语法填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)John Snow was a famous doctor in London- so expert, indeed,_1_ he attended Queen Victoria as her personal __2__(physics).

(15*3=45)AAfter a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sle ep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body rec overs from the activities of the day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for t he 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 ti me. 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, whi ch stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend (建议) breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people belie ve that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is als o 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 quickl y3 The underlined word "drowsy" in the last paragraph probabl y means _____.A. lazyB. sleepyC. relaxedD. pleased4. A good title for this text might be _____.A. DreamsB. SleepC. Good HealthD. Work a nd RestBZinc (锌) is one of about 20 elements necessary for good heal th. It is present in the body in a very small amount, but it make s it possible for important chemical actions to be carried out in cells. Scientists are just beginning to discover how zinc and o ther elements work.Researchers first studied zinc as a way to speed recovery. Dr. Waltor Powys, formerly with the United States Air Force, note d that the laboratory animals recovered faster when some mat ters were added to their food. One of these matters was zinc. Dr. Powys later tested the zinc treatment on an American air man recovering from medical operations. The airman who rec eived zinc sulphate (硫酸盐) recovered in half of the usual time. Other doctors studied persons who had a number of strange disorders. The doctors learned that all of these problems were caused by lack of zinc in the body. They treated these disorders successfully by givi ng the patients zinc sulphate.The amount of zinc in the body can be found by examining bl ood and hair. A lack of this important element is not uncommo n among people in both industrial and developing countries. Z inc 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 p eople 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 cell s.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 immediate ly7. 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 wonderfulnew 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 d ay, there is plenty of light. When fish swim nearby, you can ca tch 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.

Skin - diving is not only interesting but useful.DNo one is very glad to hear that his body has to be cut open b y surgery and part of it taken out. Today, however, we need n ot worry about feeling pain during the operation. The sick pers on falls into a kind of sleep, and when he awakes the operatio n is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is n ot 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 ma n 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 co uld 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 watch ed.Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestly discovered a gas, which is n ow called “laughing gas”. Laughing gas became known in . Yo ung men and women went to Parties to try it. Most of them sp ent 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, an d 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, b ut 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.

AI was stuck in O'hare airport on an extremely long weather delay,pacing up and down the waiting hall for some exercise,when I passed a wine bar for the twentieth time or so. But this time there was a young woman behind the piano,playing what I could only describe as absolutely beautiful classical music. She had not been there ten minutes earlier when I passed.I sat down at an empty table for four very near the piano,and began to be warmed by her music and a bit by the wine! She played so effortlessly and with such beauty in every note. Her music immediately brought a huge smile to my face!Soon,on a break,I thanked her and she told me that after a long day's traveling,and now also facing long weather delays,she just needed to relax herself. Wow! Her version of relaxing herself was exactly a gift to me.As I sat alone drinking my wine,absorbed in this young woman's celebration of her musical passion,two women approached my table and asked if they could join me. I invited them to sit and we immediately began sharing our love of music and celebrating the happiness the piano music was bringing us at that very enjoyable moment.The two women and I began to talk about our travels,life journeys,and passions. Hearing that unbelievable piano music,and then meeting such interesting women,who generously shared with me their wisdom,perspectives,and feelings of love for each other,was truly joyous. Faced with an 11­hour travel day—to get what normally takes 45 minutes—could have been physically and emotionally exhausting. Rather,by accident of walking by a wine bar at the right moment,and having a couple of seats open at my table,my life was filled with joy.I will cherish those moments for some time to come. This experience highlights (突出) the critical need in our lives to stop and listen to the music,to invite others to sit at your life table,to open yourself up to a stranger or two,sharing some of your deepest perspectives and experiences. Be open to noticing,absorbing,and also contributing to the joy around you!24.Where did the author hear the young woman's performance?A.In a wine bar. B.On the plane. C.Outside the waiting hall. D.In a chatting room.25.How long was the author's travel supposed to take without weather delay?A.10 minutes. B.20 minutes. C.45 minutes. D.11 hours.26.How did the author think about the experience in the airport?A.Complex but unforgettable. B.Boring and meaningless.C.Long and tiring. D.Joyful and meaningful.27.The author writes the text in order to encourage people ________.A.to share their experiences with others B.to notice and enjoy the happiness around themC.to make the acquaintance of strangers D.to communicate with others more oftenCHome to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia(怀旧). It's fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You'll realize what's changed is you. Home is where we can remember pain,love,and some other experiences: We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here.If I close my eyes,I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass­top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It's empty,but it's where my earliest memories are.There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays,and where I cried on Halloween—when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table,I can see my favorite room in the house,my parents' room. It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone.

BrainComputer Interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently,two researchers,Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne,Switzerland,demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person's thoughts.In the laboratory,Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.”Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Prof. Millan,the team leader,says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication,and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients,so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.32.BCI is a technology that can ________.A.help to update computer systems B.control a person's thoughtsC.help the disabled to recover D.link the human brain with computers33.How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A.By controlling his muscles. B.By talking to the machine.C.By using his mind. D.By moving his hand.34.Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A.scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair B.computer→cap→scalp→wheelchairC.scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair D.cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair35.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A.Switzerland,the BCI Research CenterB.New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC.Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain InjuriesD.BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled七选五This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes themforget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. 1 They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. 2 Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can we come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. 3 And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task,preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”,being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. 4Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. 5Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A.Having interesting things to think about also helps.B.They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C.Without wandering minds, we wouldn't have relativity, Coke or Post-it notes.D.At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.E.It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.F.Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.G.Therefore, it's a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you're in the daydream zone.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)完形填空The young woman entered the pool where an injured dolphin was swimming.

和诚学校2019-2019学年高二英语易错题目定时训练(20)时间:55分钟分值:100分第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)AIn my mind, there is a moving story about a skinny young boy who loved football with all his heart. Practice after practice, he eagerly gave everything he had. But being half the size of the other boys, he got absolutely nowhere. Despite his hard training at all the games, this hopeful athlete sat on the bench and hardly ever played.This teenager lived alone with his father, and the relationship between the two of them was very special. Even though the son was always on the bench, his father was always in the stands cheering. He never missed a game. This young man was still the smallest of the class when he entered high school. But his father continued to encourage him.The young man loved football and was determined to try his best at every practice, and perhaps he’d get to play when he became a senior. All through high school he never missed a practice nor a game but remained a benchwarmer. Besides, his faithful father was always in the stands, always with words of encouragement for him. When the young man went to college, he decided to try out for the football team as a “walk-on”. Everyone firmly believed that he could never make the cut, but he did.The news that he had survived the cut thrilled him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father. His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games. This persistent young athlete never missed practice during his four years at college, but actually he never got the real chance to play in a game.It was at the end of his senior football season that the coach met him with a telegram. The young man read the telegram and he became totally silent. Swallowing hard, he mumbled to the coach, “My father died this morning. Is it all right if I miss practice today?” The coach put his arm gently around his shoulder and said, “Take the rest of the week off, son. And don’t even plan to come back to the game on Saturday.”Saturday arrived, and the game was not going well. In the third quarter, when the team was ten points behind, a silent young man quietly slipped into the empty locker room and put on his football gear. As he ran onto the sidelines, the coach and his players were surprised to see their faithful teammate back so soon. “Coach, please let me play. I’ve just got to play today,” said the young man. The coach pretended not to hear him. There was no way he wanted his worst player in this close play-off game. But the young man insisted, and finally feeling sorry for the kid, the coach gave in. “All right,” he said. “You can go in.” Before long, the coach, the players and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes. This little unknown, who had never played before, was doing everything right. The opposing team could not stop him. He ran, passed, blocked, and tackled like a star. His team began to succeed. The score was soon tied. In the closing seconds of the game, this kid got a pass and ran all the way for the winning touchdown.Finally, after the stands had emptied, the coach noticed that this young man was sitting quietly in the corner all alone. The coach came to him and said, “Kid, you were unbelievably fantastic! Tell me what got into you? How did you do it?”He looked at the coach, tears in his eyes, and said, “Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know that my dad was blind?” The young man swallowed hard and forced a smile, “Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him I could make it!”21.What’s the writer’s attitude toward the young boy in this passage?A. Appreciative.B. Critical.C. Grateful.D. Negative.22.From the passage, we can infer that ______.A. the young man’s coach played an important role in his growthB. the young man’s father had a great positive influence on himC. not until his father passed away did the young man train hardD. the young man’s road to success in football was always smooth23.Why did the young man return to the match on Saturday?A. He hoped his dead father could be proud of his performance.B. He thought he was much better than other players in his team.C. He wanted to defeat the opposing team in this significant game.D. He planned to make money to cure his father of his blindness.24.What’s the best title of the passage?A.A thrilling football matchB. Determined father and sonC. The power of dreamsD. The encouragement of a coachCI used to think the whole purpose of life was pursuing happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, that beautiful apartment. But instead of ever feeling fulfilled, I felt anxious and adrift. Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school for positive psychology to learn what truly makes people happy.And what’s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good in the moment. Meaning, though, is deeper. The renowned psychologist Martin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. Our culture is obsessed with happiness, but I came to see that seeking meaning is the more fulfilling path.There are four pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life.The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you’re valued for who you are intrinsically and where you value others as well. For many people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning.For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding that job that makes you happy. A hospital custodian told me her purpose is healing sick people. Many parents tell me, “My purpose is raising my children.” The key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others. Without something worthwhile to do, people flounder.The third pillar of meaning is also about stepping beyond yourself, but in a completely different way: transcendence (超然). Transcendent experiences can change you. Transcendent states are those rare moments when you’re lifted above the hustle and bustle of daily life, your sense of self fades away, and you feel connected to a higher reality. For me, I’m a writer, and it happe ns through writing. Sometimes I get so in the zone that I lose all sense of time and place.The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life brings clarity. It helps you under stand how you became you. But we don’t always realize that we’re the authors of our stories and can change the way we’re telling them. Your life isn’t just a list of events. You can edit, interpret and retell your story, even as you’re constrained by the facts.That’s the power of meaning. Happiness comes and goes. But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to.29. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?A. Life can be fulfilled by landing ideal jobs.B. Life dilemma is easy for us to get out of.C. Happiness is the core values in our culture.D. Happiness is what most people pursue.30. From the four pillars of a meaningful life, we can know that ________.A. nothing is as essential a source of meaning as belongingB. purpose is less about what you want than what you giveC. transcendent fades easily and rarely makes us cheerfulD. the way of telling stories guarantees a meaningful life31. The passage aims to tell us that ________.A. meaning is more important than happinessB. seeking meaning does more good than badC. chasing happiness can make people unhappyD. meaning has deeper psychological significance 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,Whenever anyone measures educational success, East Asian countries are always top scorers. But in a recent league table, a European country, Finland, was top of the class. 36 . Britain was at No.6. What is the secret of Finland and South Ko rea’s success? It’s ti me to do some homework.In South Korea the school day is long-typically 7 or 8 hours, followed by hours of private tutoring in the evenings. 37 Worries about the effects of late night cramming (forcing sb. to learn too much) led the government to force cramming schools to close by 10 pm. Finnish children spend the least time in class in the developed world, often finishing just after lunch, with about one hour of homework a day. Private tuition is uncommon. The British school day is quite long in comparison, about 6 hours, and secondary school pupils do 2 or 3 hours of self-study a night.The South Korean education system, like many in Asia, is extremely competitive, with students even competing to get into the best cramming schools to get ahead. Finnish education is far less competitive. 38 British schools again occupy the middle ground, with quite high levels of competition for places at university, and schools and universities battling to come top of league tables for everything from exam results to student satisfaction.South Korea and Finland both do well, yet their education systems are so different. 39 Well, there are some similarities in South Korea and Finland. In those countries, teachers have a high status in society, and education is very highly valued. Those attitudes can’t change quickly. But it can be done. 40 Their quite different approach to schooling took them to the top in just a generation. A. Then where do their differences lie? B. South Korea was still in second place, though.C. Classes are all mixed ability, and there are no league tables.D. So what lessons can Britain learn from these two countries?E. Time devoted to school is the key to South Korean students’ high scores.F. Finnish children might be the star pu pils now, but until the 1970s, Finland’s education system was poor.G. All this hard work leaves South Korean students tired to fall asleep sometimes in class next day.第三部分完形填空(共20 小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)One of my teammates said it best on our last day of t he season: “Guys, you are my family.
