But 26 changed until midterm, 27 Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned(指派、分配)to our classroom.She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie 28 admired her. One morning we were working on 29 problems on the blackboard. Donnie had copied the problems and filled in answers. 30 with his progress, I left the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in tears. He’d missed the third maths problem. My student teacher looked at me 31 . suddenly her face brightened. From the desk we 32 , she got a canister(小筒) filled with 33 .“Look, Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and 34 lifting the tear-stained face from his arms. “I’ve got something to show you.” She removed the pencils, one 35 , and placed them on his desk. “See these pencils, Donnie?” she continued. “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me.

To be honest, I can’t imagine we will do without him when he’s gone. Bill Masters almost single-handed built up our sales force in the Houston area and developed the market position that we enjoy today. In only six years, he has brought the firm from a very low fifth position in the area sales to the point where we now outsell all but one of our competitors. Not only have we got 37 percent of the market under Bill’s leadership; we are increasing our share with each passing month.As you know, the company has moved Bill to northern California to work his sales magic in one of this company’s most competitive areas.

But while the image of a warm-hearted but somewhat naive migrant worker may have made film fans chuckle, it’s a sure bet that most of China’s migrant workers are yet to step into a cinema to admire it.“Forty yuan a ticket? I can’t afford it,” said Shen Jie, a migrant worker at a construction site in Dongzhimen, east Beijing.Shen found it hard to remember when he last saw a film, or what it was about. “It must be 10 years ago,” he said.Though they are the builders of the nation’s theaters and cinemas, a limited cultural life is common among China’s 120 million migrant workers.Shen arrived from East China’s Zhejiang Province in 1991. Life was better then; money seemed to come more easily. “Now, as more and more workers are rushing to the capital, it’s too hard to earn money, and none of us dare think about seeing films,” he said.For many like Shen, the dream is earning enough to pay for their children’s education so they can find jobs in the cities and say goodbye to the hardships of rural life forever. This drives themto work hard and save as much as possible.With a monthly salary of less than 500 yuan, Shen has to send money home to his little son and silver-haired parents.In Shen’s small dormitory, which he shares with seven other co-workers, there is a well-thumbed copy of a magazine published in 1998.A recent survey by local media revealed that 80 percent of migrant workers spent their spare time sleeping and chatting because of exhaust and a lack of income. The same survey found that 47 percent of migrant workers have to work for more than 10 hours a day. Around 40 percent do not even possess a book, and nearly 60 percent say they are dissatisfied with their cultural life.Like many of Shen’s co-workers, reading newspapers and hanging out in Beijing’s streets provide evening entertainment.( )45.We can infer from the passage “A World Without Thieves” is a film that .A.talks about experiences of a group of thievesB.deals with the life of migrant workersC.explains how to catch thieves on trainsD.attracts many migrant workers( )46.As for the migrant worker, Shen Jie, .A.life was harder when he first came to work in BeijingB.he enjoyed a lot of films ten years agoC.his wish was to pay for his son’s educationD.the capital is too hard a place for him to make any money( )47.According the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.the workers enjoy reading very much, no matter how old the magazines areB.the workers have so little to read that they often read the same magazine again and again C.the workers enjoy magazines because they are easy to understandD.the workers think highly of the copy of the magazine published in 1998( )48.The main idea of this passage is that migrant workers .A.lack cultural experiences B.are not very well-paid in BeijingC.are looked down upon by city people D.need the government’s attentionCThe private automobile has long played an important role in the United States. In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. In 1986, 69 percent of American families owned at least one car, and 38 percent had more than one. By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work. This has encouraged of the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure, and also to transport their children to distant schools.Family life has been affected in various ways. The car helps to keep families together when it is used for picnics, outings, and other shared experiences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car, their parents can’t keep an eye on them. There is a great danger if the driver has been drinking alcohol or taking drugs —or is “showing off”by speeding or breaking other traffic laws. Mothers of victims of such accidents have formed an organization called MADD(Mothers Against Drunk Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies(悲剧). They have worked to encourage the government to limit the youngest drinking age. Students have formed a similar organization, SADD(Students Against Drunk Driving) and are spreading the same message among their friends.For many Americans the automobile is a necessity. But for some, it is also a mark of social position and for young people, a sign of becoming an adult. Altogether, cars mean very much to Americans.( )49.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?A.Cars have encouraged the growth of the cities.B.Cars can bring families together when they go for picnics.C.Cars have enabled people to live far from their place of work.D.Cars help city families to transport their children to faraway schools.( )50.What has been done to deal with the problem of drunk driving?A.Parents have paid more attention to their children.B.Some organizations have been set up against drunk driving.C.Mothers have tried to persuade their children not to drink alcohol.D.University students have asked the government to solve the problem.( )51.We can infer from the text that in America.A.it will be more difficult for people to get new carsB.parents will not allow their children to have their own carsC.the government will encourage people to use public transportationD.cars will still be popular though they have caused many problemsDFull face transplants are no longer science fiction fantasy(幻想), a leading surgeon has said, adding that they are technically feasible(可行的) but ethically(道德的) complex.Peter Butler from London’s Royal Free Hospital called for a debate on the ethics of such an operation made possible by new drugs which stop the body’s immune system(免疫系统) rejecting a transplanted face. “It is not ‘can we do it?’but ‘should we do it?’”he told the BBC. “The technical part is not complex, but I don’t think that’s going to be the very great difficulty …. The ethical and moral debate is obviously going to have to take place before the first facial transplantation. ”The British Association of Plastic Surgeons(整形外科医生) will discuss the microsurgical procedure(微型外科技术), which could give new skin, bone, nose, chin, lips and ears from deceased donors(捐赠人) to patients disfigured损伤外貌by accidents, burns or cancer. But surgeons could have trouble finding enough willing donors. Butlers said his survey of doctors,nurses and members of the public showed most would accept a face transplant but few were willing to donate their own after dying.Despite a number of ethical concerns, Christine Piff, who founded the charity Let’s Fact It after suffering a rare facial cancer 25 years ago, welcomed the possibility of face transplants. She rejected the idea that the procedure would mean people would end up living with a dead person’s face. “There are so many people without faces, I have half a face …, but we are all so much more than just a face …, you don’t take on their personality. You are still you,” she told reporters. “If we can donate other organs of the body then why not the face. I can’t see anything wrong with it.”( )52.The underlined word “deceased” in the third paragraph probably means .A.willing B.dead C.diseased D.dying( )53.When Christine Piff says “There are so many people without faces…”, she refers to the people .A.who are dishonorable and shamelessB.who have got their faces transplantedC.who are seriously injured by accidentD.who are disfigured by accidents, burns and cancer( )54.According to the passage, what makes it likely to carry out a facial transplantation?A.Drugs are available to stop the body’s immune system rejecting a transplanted face.B.It’s morally practical, though technically complex.C.Most people accept the idea of face transplants.D.The British Association of Plastic Surgeons has performed the operation.( )55.What is implied but not stated in the passage?A.Christine Piff has been the first lucky patient to receive a face transplant.B.Surgeons have difficulty finding enough willing donors.C.The main difficulty with the operation lies in the matter of ethics and morality.D.Nobody other than Christine Piff is quite in favor of the donation of organs.( )56.What would be the best title for the text?A.First Facial Transplantation B.Debate on the Ethics of Face TransplantC.Let’s Face It D.Face Transplant No Longer Science FictionEWhile income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon is commonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症).In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it had been noted that the values they hold not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as “distant parent phenomenon”, which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for “Empty Nest Syndrome”. ( )57.According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by .A.their earlier experience of feeling lonelyB.the unfavorable living conditions in their native countriesC.the common worry about their incomeD.the geographical distance between parents and children( )58.Many young people have gone abroad, leaving their aged parents behind, to .A.live in the countries with more moneyB.seek a better place got their aged parentsC.continue their studies abroadD.realize their dreams in foreign countries( )59.If young people go abroad, .A.they do not hold to the value of duty at allB.they can give some help to their parents back homeC.they cannot do what they should for their parentsD.they believe what they actually do is right( )60.From the last paragraph, we can infer .A.the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB.“Empty Nest Syndrome” has arrived unexpectedly in out societyC.children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD.the aged parents are not fully prepared for “Empty Nest Syndrome”高三英语周练(unit13)参考答案一、英语知识应用:1-5ABDAD 6-10CBCCA 11-15ADACC 16-20BCBBD三、完型填空:21-25CABBC 26-30BACCD 31-35ABBAC 36-40DDABA四、阅读理解:41-44CCDB 45-48DCBA 49-51DBD 52-56BDACD 57-60DDCB二、短文改错:61.take-taking 62.class-classes 63.or-and 64.did-do 65.real-a real66.tired-more tired 67.pleased-pleasing68.Sometime-Sometimes 69.正确70。
高二英语周考(含答案)
高二英语周考第1 卷第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15 小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的四个选项(A. B. C和D) 中,选出最佳选项。
AGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced still swim as well as ever since. A man when he gets back who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star". Remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of over learner , which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but over learnThe multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we over learn in childhood.The law of over learning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination. Though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning. On the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.1. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children arc easy to remember.2. The author explains the law of over leaning by_________.A. presenting research findingsB. selling down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples3. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______.A. a result of over learningB. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with math problemsD. a basic step towards advanced studies4. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Commonly accepted rules.B. The multiplication tables.C. Things easily forgotten.D. School subjects.5. What is the author's opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It's helpful only in a limited way.C. It's possible to result in poor memory.D. It increases students' learning interest.BEating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风)within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物)were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好)quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.6. The text mainly discusses the relationship between .A. heart problems and air qualityB. heart problems and exercisingC. heart problems and smokingD. heart problems and fatty food7. The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .A. relatively highB. extremely lowC. relatively lowD. extremely high8. What can we learn from the text?A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B. The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking,D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.9. The autho r’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to .A. informB. persuadeC. describeD. entertainCWhat is the color of the universe? Astronomers did not answer this question until two months ago. This was when two American astronomers reported on their study of all the light in the universe. They said that the universe would appear to the human eye to be a light greenish color, called turquoise(青绿色). Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, reported their findings in January. They presented research at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society. They said that finding the color of the universe was not part of their more serious scientific research. They did it for fun.However, earlier this month, the scientists admitted to making a mistake. They said their finding was much more colorful than it should have been. They now say the light from our universe is closer to white. It is more like a milky or creamy white color.The scientists gave a number to each of the colors of the different star systems. Then they added the numbers together and found the average measurement. The scientists used this average to identify the color of the universe. They said it was a very pretty light green or turquoise color. They called it “cosmic (宇宙的) spectrum (光谱) green.” Many newspapers and television stations reported their finding.Other scientists and color engineers attempted to reproduce the result. Mark Fairchild of the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York was the first person to identify a mistake. He discovered a mistake in the computer software program used by the Johns Hopkins scientists. When the mistake was corrected, the results changed. The new color of the universe is much less colorful. It is very close to white. The scientists apologized for the mistake. They are now working with the Rochester Institute of Technology to produce more images regarding the color of the universe.10. Why did the scientists do the research?A. They wanted to win a Nobel Prize.B. It’s required by the government.C. They did it just for fun.D. It’s part of their research.11. We can infer that the passage was probably written in _______.A. JanuaryB. FebruaryC. MayD. March12. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. None of the researches done by scientists is right.B. Scientists sometimes may make mistakes in their work.C. The color of the universe is light greenish.D. Mark Fairchild apologized for his mistake about the color of universe.DTo err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human.Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular misquotes(戏谑的引语)are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature .To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do .Th e original quote about human nature went like this:” To err is human, to forgive,divine(神圣的).”This saying mirrors an deal people should be forgiving of others’ mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite –find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine.Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company,”the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people. get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论)to that: if good excuse is “good”even if it isn’t honest, then where is the p lace of the truth?13. According to tile passage, which of following seems the most human?A. To search for truth.B. To criticize others for one’s own errorC. To make fun of others’mistakes.D.. To achieve one’s ideal14.According to the author, what is a sign of a man’s maturity?A.Doing things his own way.B.Making as few mistakes as possible.C.Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.D.Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.15. What would be the best title for his passage?A. Truth or ExcuseB. To Blame or to ForgiveC. A Mark of MaturityD. A Mirror of Human Nature第二节( 共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)。
高二上学期第13周英语限时训练
高二上学期第13周英语限时训练阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”36. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless37. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person38. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use39. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.BMr. Fitzpatrick has given much attention to his “Weight reduction” (减轻体重) programs. Just last year, for example, when he was the main speaker at the company dinner, he said he put on twenty pounds instead of losing thirty he promised he would.The year before that, he joined a health club. He exercised every day and ate less food. At the end of three months, however, he began making excuses about why he couldn’t go there more often.After the health club failed to work, he joined Weight Watchers but stopped going because he was the only man there. And he hated following any of the diet programs. Fitz’s latest idea is to join a walking club to “walk off” the weight.41.

As we sat before the television set, with our eyes fixed on the screen, we experienced every kind of feeling. When the two teams played neck and neck, we were on pins and needles, anxious as to what would come next, and when our team fell behind our hearts were in our mouths. Watching the game between those two teams is not only a matter of great joy. For more than that it provides food for thought. Just see how the Chinese women won the game ──by their co ──operation (合作), by their excellent skill, their effort and strong will. A Chinese saying goes, “When two competent opponents (比赛的双方) meet, the strong ──minded one will win. “This is the spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team. If every Chinese showed some of the spirit, never losing heart in times of difficulty and remaining clear ──minded in times of advantage (优势), then our nation would stand in the vanguard (前列) of the world family of nations, just as the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team has done, is doing and will do.44. While watching the game, we _____.A. had feelings of different kindB. enjoyed a friendly and wonderful gameC. clapped and cheered only for the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamD. were eager to know what would happen later on45. The wonderful game _____.A. brought us great joyB. provided us with food for our thoughtsC. gave us not only great joy but also food for thoughtsD. give us a valuable amusement46. The author believed that _____.A. the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team was the strongestB. China was sure to become stronger and stronger if only we have that spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamC. The Chinese must remain clear-minded in time of advantageD. The Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team never lost heart in times of difficulty47. The best title of the passage might be _____.A. Watching a Close Volleyball GameB. The Spirit of the Chinese Women’s Voll eyball TeamC. Learn from the Members of the Volleyball TeamD. The Strong ──Minded Are the WinnersDIf you wish to become a better reader, here are four important points to remember about rate, or speed, of reading:1. Knowing why you are reading—what you are reading to find out—will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, arithmetic problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant for enjoyment, news, and letters from friends, items, or bits of news from local, or hometown, paper, telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.4. In some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow to fast, as you go along. You need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.48. According to the passage, your reading speed depends on ________.A. whether the reading material is easy or difficultB. what you are readingC. what your purpose in reading something isD. both B and C49.

一中高2021级2021-2021学年上学期module1-3英语单元测试一.阅读理解〔一共4小题;每一小题2分,满分是8分〕阅读以下短文,从每一小题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中,选出最正确选项。
On October 19, 1959, the first Special English program was broadcast on the Voice of America. It was an experiment. The goal was to communicate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native language is not English. Experts said the goal was admirable, but the method would not work. They were proved wrong. The Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular on VOA. And they still are.Forty years later, Special English continues to communicate with people who are not fluent in English. But during the years its role has expanded. It also helps people learn American English. And it provides listeners, even those who are native English speakers, with information they cannot find elsewhere.Today, Special English broadcasts around the world seven days a week, five times a day. Each half-hour broadcast begins with ten minutes of the latest news followed by 20 minutes of feature programming. There is a different short feature every weekday about science, development, agriculture and environment, and on the weekend, about news events and American idioms.Three elements make Special English unique. It has a limited vocabulary of 1500 words. Most are simple words that describe objects, actions or emotions. Some are more difficult. They are used for reporting world events and describing discoveries in medicine and science. Special English is written in short, simple sentences thatcontain only one idea. No idioms are used. And Special English is spoken at a slower pace, about two-thirds the speed of Standard English. This helps people learning English hear each word clearly. It also helps people who are English speakers understand complex subjects.Through the years, Special English has become a very popular tool for teaching English, even though it was not designed as teaching program. It succeeds in helping people learn English in a non-traditional way. Individuals record the programs and play them over and over to practice their listening skills. In countries around the world, English teachers assign Special English to their students. They praise it for improving their students' ability to understand American English and for the content of the programs. Universities and private companies in many countries produce packages of Special English materials for student use.1.At the beginning, Special English program was .A. well receivedB. rejected by native peopleC. doubted by some professionalsD. intended for teaching English2.What kind of English is spoken on Special English?A. British English.B. American English.C. Both British and American English.D. Not certain.3.Which of the following are the elements that make Special English unique?a. limited vocabularyb. short simple sentencesc. good communication methodd. slow speede. interesting feature programmingA. a, b, cB. a, c, dC. a, b, dD. b, d, e4.From the last paragraph we can infer that .A. listening to Special English can be a student’s homeworkB. listening to Special English can improve the content of the programC. some student record the Special English material for saleD. learning English from VOA is a traditional way for English learner.二.完形填空〔一共20小题;每一小题1.5分,满分是30分〕The area of California that is called Silicon Valley is about seventy kilometers southeast of San Francisco.

I fetched a ladder and reached the ceiling. There I saw a metal container that I recognized as a World War II ammo (弹药) box; my grandfather used to store tools in ammo boxes on his farm. I opened the box and was surprised at what I saw —several rolls of money tied up in orange thread. I found $800. My God! I found another seven boxes, plus two big black bags also fullof rolls of money. In all, about $45,000.My first thought was that this was a blessing from God. But I knew I should return the money to the former owner, David, instead of satisfying all my desires. So I called him and asked him to drop by.However, he was shocked not about the money but about what I did. He said he had recently inherited(继承) the house and it must have been his dad who had hidden the money. What made him do it? I think he did it for his children.There were balls of that orange thread still hanging on the wall of the garage when we moved in. I used them to tie up Christmas presents last year for my kids.I hope it reminded my kids of the gift greater than money that my wife and I gave them — the honesty.36. David was shocked that .A. there were so many ammo boxes in his former houseB. a lot of money was found in his former houseC. the author returned all the money to himD. his father hid so much money for him37. What can be inferred from the text?A. David missed and appreciated his father very much.B. The author hoped what he did would affect his children.C. The author’s grandfather hid some money in an ammo box.D. David’s father was very rich during the Second World War.38. The main idea of the text is that .A. people should be honest all the timeB. the author treasured the orange threadC. money should be returned to its ownerD. money should be hidden for childrenBThe following is a list of some of Tokyo’s most popular spots for cherry bloss om, including the typical (典型的) time for best views in the year of 2012.Shinjuku GyoenShinjuku Gyoen has more than one thousand cherry trees of over a dozen kinds, including many early and late flowering trees. There are giant lawn (草坪) areas, and the atmosphere is calm and peaceful. Thanks to the early and late blooming trees, Shinjuku Gyoen is a good place for those who miss the main season for a week or two.10 minutes’ walk from Shinjuku Station, 200 yen, April, from 9:00 to 16:30UenoParkAs on e of Japan’s most crowded, noisy and popular spots for cherry blossom parties, UenoPark has more than 1,000 trees along the street leading towards the NationalMuseum. UenoPark’s blossoms typically open 1-3 days ahead of the blossoms in other spots in the city.A few steps from Ueno Station, admission free, March 27 to April 15, from 17:30 to 20:00SumidaParkThe park covers a few hundred meters along both sides of SumidaRiver. Some food stands (摊位) are available. Cherry blossom views can also be enjoyed from rented (租的) boats. There are several picnic spots under the cherry trees. Trees are lit up in the evenings, which is different from other spots.A few steps from Asakusa Station, admission free, March 31 to April 8, from 8:00 to 21:30InokashiraParkThere are a few hundreds of cherry trees in this giant, public city park, which has a central pond. Boats can be rented in order to view the blossoms from the water.South of Kichijoji Station, admission free, April, from 9:00 to 16:3039. If you miss the main season of cherry blossom for one week, you can go to .A. Inokashira ParkB. Ueno ParkC. Shinjuku GyoenD. Sumida Park40. According to Paragraph 3, we can infer that .A. we can’t be allowed to enter UenoPark at 21:00B. Ue noPark’s blossoms open later than other spotsC. we must pay admission fees to go into UenoParkD. we can enjoy a giant lawn in UenoPark41. Why is SumidaPark special from other spots?A.

SumidaPark and InokashiraPark are different from the others in .A. offering boat toursB. early opening timeC. free admissionD. hundreds of treesCHere are some tips on how to keep you, your belongings (财物) and your money safe during travel. After all, it’d be a shame to spend all the time and research finding the best price for your trip, only to lose your cash and credit cards to a thief.★ Don’t show others that you are not a native.You’re a tourist. You know that, but you don’t want everybody else to know that. Don’t unfold your big map on a busy corner. Don’t ask strangers on the street for directions. Learn your route ahead of time, and step into a business for directions whenever possible. Avoid flashing your guidebook around, or publicly referring to your language dictionary when traveling abroad.★ Keep your friends close and your money closer.A lone traveler equals easy pickings for an experienced criminal. If you are traveling alone, try to hide that fact. Stick with groups whenever possible and keep information-sharing with taxi drivers and the like to a minimum (最少量).Another thing you don’t wan t to advertise: where you keep your money. A fannypack (腰包) may be convenient, but it means “I’m not from around here!〞 If you have a purse, keep it close to your body, preferably under an item of clothing like a jacket or sweater so that thieves can’t ste al it. Be sure your wallet is in a securely fastened pocket. Or go like 007 with a hidden money belt. How cool is that?★ Be careful, even in your hotel room.Never ever blindly answer a knock at your door. If the knocker identifies(确认) himself as a hotel employee, call the front desk to confirm. Always make sure your hotel door completely closes.Don’t leave your valuables lying around when you leave for the day.43. Why shouldn’t tourists wear a fanny pack?A. Because it can’t hide money.B. Because it is not convenient.C. Because it shows that they are not local.D. Because it can’t be hidden under their jacket.44. Why does the author mention 007’s money belt?A. To persuade readers to learn from 007.B. To persuade readers to buy the belt worn by 007.C. To persuade readers to hide money in their belt.D. To persuade readers not to show others where they keep money.45. This text is intended for .A. thievesB. touristsC. hotel managersD. language learners46. We can learn from the text that .A. when traveling abroad, we shouldn’t open our language dictionary in publicB. we can leave our money at the hotel when traveling abroadC. we should go to open the door if we hear a knock at itD. we should not talk with taxi drivers abroadDFast-food giant, McDonald’s, said that they would cut out excess calories in their kids’ menu choices. McDonald’s will reduce the amount of chips(炸薯条) in Happy Meals and will also include sliced apple “dippers〞in every meal. McDonald’s says it will still include the ever-popular toys with each meal.“We are going to pay attention to how we can introduce more food groups such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains,〞said Cindy Goody, McDonald’s senior director of nutrition.After getting much of the blame for childhood obesity, fast-food chains, especially McDonald’s, began selling more nutritious menu items such as oatmeal (燕麦粥) and salads. But the restaurant was most blamed for its marketing (市场营销) which is often aimed at young children. Some cities, such as San Francisco, California, have banned(禁止) toys from all kids’ meals that didn’t meet strict nutritional rules for fat, salt and sugar content because the prizes attracted more children to the fast food.McDonald’s felt public pressure t o change their offerings. The company has reduced chips in every meal. This decreases calorie content by about 20 percent, which means a new Happy Meal is less than 600 calories. In the past, the unhealthiest Happy Meal consisted of a cheeseburger, chips and one percent chocolate milk, which contained 700 calories and 27 grams of fat.“It’s a good first step,〞said Kelle Louailler, executive director of Corporate Accountability International. His group watches over companies. “However, we have yet to focus on the problem: its brand marketing to kids. And so long asburgers, chips and soda offerings to kids, along with toys, remain central to that brand, health professionals(专家) will continue to call for the marketing to stop.〞47. The underlined word “exces s〞in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “ 〞.A. enoughB. extraC. entireD. expensive48. We can infer from the text that in McDonald’s the apple “dippers〞 is a kind of food that .A. is most popular with customersB. contains apples and whole grainsC. is a lot healthierD. is high in calories49. McDonald’s will make some changes in meals because of .A. the high prices of fruits and vegetablesB. the change of children’s eating habitsC. the pressure from the publicD. some strict nutritional rules50. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?A. The problems that McDonald’s is facing.B. Some changes the McDonald’s has made.C. Its marketing is blamed by some people.D. Customers dislike its new menu.EBee Gees star Robin Gibb, who awoke from a coma(昏迷) last month, has a “50-50〞chance of recovering from the colon cancer that may have spread to his liver, a friend of the singer told British newspaper The Telegraph.Jim Dooley, former lead singer of British family band The Dooleys and one of Gibb’s friends, told the paper, “It’s hard to say whether he could come through this but his wife Dwina is a wonderful woman and she is giving him all the love and TLC she can give.〞Dooley told the paper that Gibb, 62, was unable to speak due to a tracheotomy (气管切开术) and was communicating by blinking (眨眼).“Dwina has said that because he has spent so long in a coma, there are a lot of things he will have to learn to do again if he comes through it. He will have to relearn how to walk,〞Dooley said. “The plan is to get his strength up so he can continue chemotherapy (化疗) treatment for his cancer.〞It’s said that Pope(教皇) Benedict XVI is sending a special blessing for Gibb.Dooley and Gibb have been working together for four years to raise money for the Bomber Command Memorial in London.Gibb entered a London hospital after catching pneumonia and was in a coma for nine days. His doctor credited the singer’s iron will and deep reserves of physical strength with helping him wake from the coma but said how the disease would develop was still uncertain.Gibb founded the Bee Gees with his twin brother, Maurice, and older brother, Barry, in the late 1950s and went on to sell an estimated 200 million records. The group’s 1970s hit songs include “Night Fever〞, “Tragedy〞and “How Deep Is Your Love〞.51. The underlined expression “TLC〞 in Para. 2 probably means .A. thick layer of cakeB. tender loving careC. total lung capacityD. twice long connection52. We can learn from the text that Robin Gibb .A. cannot express himself at all at presentB. will be sure to recover because of his wife’s careC. will most probably fail to come through the cancerD. can communicate with others through eyes53. What can we infer from the text?A. Robin Gibb may lose part of his memory if he can recover.B. Robin Gibb won’t receive chemotherapy treatment any more.C. Robin Gibb might have had his two legs seriously injured.D. Robin Gibb might have died but for his wife’s love.54. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Bee Gees was founded in the late 1970s.B. Dooley raised money for Gibb’s operation.C. Gibb and Dooley founded the band Bee Gees.D. Gibb is probably in a hospital in London at present.55. Gibb will most probably recover because of the following EXCEPT .A. Pope Benedict XVI’s blessingB. the doctor’s careful treatmentC. his wife’s love and careD. his strong willpower第三局部书面表达(共两节,总分为35分)第一节阅读表达〔共5小题;每一小题2分,总分为10分〕阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

2021年高三英语第13次周考试题(含解析)第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AThe Healthy Habits Survey(调查) shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits. Here are some findings and expert advice.1. How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?•Finding: A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day. •Step: Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a battery-operated toothbrush. Brush gently for 2 minutes at least twicea day.2. How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday? •Finding: Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day—half of the number doctors remend. •Step: We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day—often inviting germs (病菌) to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot runningwater and soap for 20 seconds.3. How often do you think about fighting germs?•Finding: Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should. •Step: Be aware of germs. Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge (海绵) that can carry more germs than anything else? To kill these germs, keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.1. What is found out about American seniors?A. Most of them have good habits.B. Nearly 30% of them bathe three days a week.C. All of them are fighting germs better than expected.D. About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day.2. Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands .A. twice a dayB. three times a dayC. four times a dayD. eight times a day3. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. We should keep from touching our faces.B. There are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.C. A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.D. We should wash our hands before touching a door handle.4. The text probably es from .A. a guide bookB. a popular magazineC. a book reviewD. an official documentBWhen I was about twelve, I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was winter, and on that particular night, the wind was really blowing. As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare change. My mom immediately asked where they kept their things. They pointed to an old car in a parking across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car, which was the same size as my own family.My mom said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings. But she didn’t e.Later, I found out she had gone home and practically emptied our cupboards into a few bags. Then, she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn’t there when that part happened,but I can only imagine the joy it brought to their faces.A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done, I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remember the face of that girl who had asked us for change; she was the same age as me, yet we looked so different.Here I stood, dressed in almost new clothes, headed to dine in a restaurant and then back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister.I remember thinking that the girl didn’t have any food to eat and that she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.After painting this picture in my mind, I understood why my mom had done what she did. I will never forget what she did that night, and how she taught me one of the best lessons I ever learned.5. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. The girl’s family lived a hard life.B. The author was happy to go to a restaurant.C. The girl’s family lived in an old house.D. The author’s family was the same size as the girl.6. Which of the following best describes the a uthor’s mother?A. Reliable and determined.B. Cautious and friendly.C. Considerate and enthusiastic.D. Unusual and optimistic.7. What might be the author’s purpose by writing the text?A. To seek help for the poor family.B. To tell us to show love to others.C. To give a brief introduction of her mother.D. To plain about some social problems.CMy students often tell me that they don’t have“enough time” to do all their schoolwork.My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the president.”I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, “That’s irrelevant(无关的). What’s important is the quality of your work.”Since then I have had time to think carefully about the “hard worker” dodge (诀窍) , and I have e to some conclusions—all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of “time” , which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of “work” during that time. But, a s my professor suggested, it’s not how hard one works but the quality of the product that’s important.That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone’s office:“Don’t work harder. Work smarter.”There is a lot of sense in that idea.If you can’t get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since “work” for students usually means “homework” , the expression“work habits” should be readas “study habits” .Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.8. From the passage, we know that the author is probably .A. a poetB. an educatorC. a novelistD. an engineer9. We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that we students still .A. have enough timeB. can meet the presidentC. get everything done wellD. should accept the explanation10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The author’s students make good use of their time to do all their homework.B. The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (the author) had done a good job.C. You can’t improve the quality of the work if you can’t get more time.D. You’ll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you’rea clever student.11. What’s the passage mainly about?A. Students don’t have enough time.B. Don’t work harder; work smarter.C. No one can get more time.D. Read better and write better.DIn a recent announcement, Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) said that they have joined forces to offer free online courses in an effort to attract millions of online learners worldwide.Beginning this fall, a number of courses developed by teachers at both universities will be offered online through a new $60 million program, known as edX. “Anyone with an Internet connection anywhere in the world can use our online courses,” Harvard President Drew Faust said during a meeting to announce the plan.MIT has offered a program called OpenCourseWare for ten years that makes materials from more than 2,000 classes free online. It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who plete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population through a similar program.The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.“Fasten your seatbelts,” Hockfield said.Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit (非盈利的) organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities. Both MIT and Harvard have provided $30 million to start the program. They also plan to use the edX platform to research how students learn and which teaching methods and tools are most successful.12. According to this text, edX is .A. a part of the free MIT OpenCourseWareB. a free puter program by MIT and HarvardC. a Harvard-MIT platform of free online coursesD. a free program online for universities worldwide13. What is said about online education in the text?A. Universities have been trying online courses.B. About 2,000 online courses have been offered.C. Over 100 million people have finished courses online.D. Stanford and Yale together have courses similar to edX.14. The underlined part in the text probably means .A. Get ready for the difficultiesB. Get ready for this educational changeC. Get prepared to plete the online coursesD. Get prepared to make materials for the edX courses15. What can be said about MITx according to the text?A. It is first offered as part of the edX learning program.B. It is another free MIT-Harvard online learning program.C. It is a standard to recognize online learners’ achievement.D. It is a new kind of free online course of Harvard and MIT.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。

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期高二英语第十三周周练试卷命题人:汪佳嘉第一节:阅读理解(每题2.5分,共10分)What is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, chemistry, geology, engineering, medical or any other science? We all know that science plays an important role in the societies in which we live. Many people believe, however, that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first of these is the application of the machines and products that scientists and technologists develop. New drugs, faster and safer means of transport, new systems of applied knowledge are some examples of this aspect of science.The second aspect is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work. What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is full of curiosity — he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually directs his attention towards problems which he notices have no satisfactory explanation, and his curiosity makes him look for underlying relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions, whether of pure or applied knowledge, and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.He is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and applies persistent and logical thought to the observations he makes. He uses the facts he observes to the full extent. For example, trained observers acquire a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum.He is skeptical —he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available — and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Furthermore, he is not only critical of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend todisturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data, which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to make hypotheses of how processes work and how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.32. Many people believe that science helps society to progress through __________.A. applied knowledgeB. more than one aspectC. technology onlyD. the use of machines33. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about curiosity?A. It gives the scientist confidence and pleasure in work.B. It gives rise to interest in problem that are unexplained.C. It leads to efforts to investigate potential connections.D. It encourages the scientists to look for new ways of acting.34. According to the passage, a successful scientist would not __________.A. easily believe in unchecked statementsB. easily criticize others’ research workC. always use his imagination in workD. always use evidence from observation35. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Application of technology.B. Progress in modern society.C. Scientists’ way of thinking and acting.D. How to become a successful scientist.第二节:七选五(每题3分,共15分)More and more bosses worldwide are expecting their workers to be good at two or even more languages.

I found myself getting all caught up in her enthusiasm and didn’t want to 43 her.So I said “Sure,why not?” and before the call had 44, I found myself agreeing without giving any 45 whether it was worth doing.We are both window-shoppers and 46 a whole day in the street.

And then there are my other projects to 49 一my voluntary work and a couple of other interesting investments that l want to 50. I’m going to have to be more ruthless and not just agree to 51 people ask me to get involved in. In other words,I’m going to have to get 52 at sayin g “NO”.Usually I hate saying “NO”,because having to disappoint someone usually 53 me. Now I realize 54 I haven’t learned to say “NO”.I’ve been feeling very 55 .We had better do what we think is right and what we are 56 to do.Sometimes it does not seem that bad to 57 others.If I focus on the things I 58 want to be involved in,I’11 reach a much higher standard and do it quite 59 . I’1l be enthusiastic and motivated and do something that isgood for everyone and everyone will be happy.It’11 be a win-win 60 .What’s not good about that?

The above paragraphs are taken from _______.A. a storyB. an advertisementC. an explaining writingD. a newspaper(C)In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings reallydid land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Chunnel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now plete.But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities.” The designers ima gine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome(太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good wa y to use the earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells’ “moon people” would agree. Would you?11. The explorers in H. G. Wells’ story were surprised to find that the “moonpeople” _____.A.knew so much about the earthB. understood their languageC.lived in so many underground citiesD. were ahead of them in spacetechnology12. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?A. Discovering the moon’s inner space.B. Using the earth’s inner space.C. Meeting the “moon people” again.D. Traveling to outer space.13. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?A.Offices, shopping areas, power stations.B.Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.C.Gardens, car parks, power stations.D.Tunnels, gardens, offices.14. What would be the best title for the text?A. Alice Cities—cities of the future.B. Space travel with H. G. Wells.C. Enjoy living underground.D. Building down, not up.(D)Treasure hunts have excited people’s imagination for hundred s of years both in real life and in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of bining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues(线索) found in a book when he wrote a children’s story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out Williams burieda gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings”, or false clues, to mislead them.Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic(逻辑), not by luck. His success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words: “One of Six to Eight” under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way to Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII’s six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.Even then his search had not e to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to findout if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth ₤3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.15. The underlined word “them” refers to _____.A. red herringsB. treasure huntsC. Henry VIII’s six wivesD. readers of Masquerade16. What is the most important clue in the story to help Ken Roberts find the hare?A. Two stone crosses in Ampthill.B. Stevenson’s Treasure Island.C. Katherine of Aragon.D. Williams’ hometown.17. The stone crosses in Ampthill were built ____.A.to tell about what happened in 1773B.to show respect for Henry VIII’s first wifeC.to serve as a road sign in Ampthill ParkD.to inform people where the gold hare was18. Which of the following describes Roberts’ logic in searching for the hare?a. Henry VIII’s six wives.b. Katherine’s burial place at Kimbolton.c. Williams’ childhood in Ampthill.d. Katherine of Aragone. stone crosses in Ampthill Park.A. a-b-c-e-dB. d-b-c-e-aC. a-d-b-c-eD. b-a-e-c-d19. What is the subject discussed in the text?A.An exciting historical event.B. A modem treasure hunt.C. The attraction of Masquerade.D. The importance of logical thinking.(E)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。

大名一中2021-2021学年高二英语下学期第13周周测试题〔无答案〕第一局部:〔一共两节,满分是40分〕第一节:阅读理解 (一共15小题,每一小题2分,满分是30分〕阅读以下短文,从每一小题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最正确选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AAre you happy with your teeth? Becca,a 15yearold girl from the US is not. She decided her teeth needed to be whiter.In the last five years,teeth whitening has become very popular among young Americans. Now the trend has come to China. If you turn on the TV you can see the Hong Kong pop star Karen Mok showing her bright white teeth,saying,“Want to be like me? Use white teeth strips (牙贴)!〞 You may even have decided to buy one.But wait a minute. Dentists have something to say. They think that kids should not use whitening products until they are 16 or even older.“We don't know what will happen yet,〞 says Dr Nasrin Azim,a dentist in Chicago.“Studies have not been done on young people. I wouldn't do teeth whitening on anyone under 18.〞The problem with whitening lies in the pulp (牙髓),the innermost part of the tooth. It has the tooth's nerve (神经) ending. When we eat very hot or cold things,it's the pulp that hurts. Kids have larger pulps. The larger pulp might make teeth more sensitive to whitening and get hurt.Another problem is that the gums (牙龈) around the teeth usually change shape with age. So,if someone whitens his or her teeth during childhood,the darker,natural colour might show later around the gum line. At that time,your teeth will show two colours.
