testpaper2Passage OneA ten-year-old boy decided to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy did well, so he couldn’t understand why, after three months o f training, the master had taught him only one move.“Master,” the boy finally said, “Shouldn’t I be learning more moves?”“This is the only move you know, but this is the o nly move you’ll ever need to know,” the master replied.Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.Several months later, the master took the boy to his first tournament. Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be outmatched. Concerned about the boy, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the master came forward.“No.” the master insisted, “Let him continue.”Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a fatal mistake. He dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy won the match. He was the champion.On the way home, the boy and his master review every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courageto ask what was really on his mind. “Master, how did I win the tournament with only one move?”“You won for two reasons.” the master answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in judo. And second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.”1.Judging from the context, what happens when a referee call s a “time-out”?a.The time for the game has run out.b.The game stops for a short time.c.Either side can claim victory.d.The game ends in a tie.2.Why did the master insist on/persist in/stick to continuing the match?a.Because the time-out would give the opponent an advantage.b.Because the boy was confident of winning.c.Because he had confidence in the boy’s skill.d.Because all he cared about is winning the final.3.What caused the defeat of the boy’s o pponent in the final?a.Over-confidenceb.Impatiencec.Inexperienced.The time-out4.Why did the master only teach the boy one move?a.The boy could not do other moves with only one arm.b.It was the only move the master knew well.c.It was the move his opponents were not good at.d.His opponent would be helpless when he made his move.5.What does the story show?a.One can turn his weakness into his advantage.b.It is very important to have a good teacher.c.Even a disabled person can win in a judo match.d.To master judo one only needs to learn one difficult move.Passage TwoCindy Hess began her automotive career as a Design and Development Engineer with Chrysler, in the fall of 1977. Today, she is Vice-President of Daimler Chrysler, and head of the Small Car Platform Engineering Department which is directly responsible for the design and development of the Neon, Doge Viper, and all future small car s. “Many different departments are involved in bringing a product to market,” said Hess, referring the 2000 Neon. “A company looks into renewing a particular vehicle when its marketplace demand is good, and the profits increase our shareholder’s value,” explained Hess. “We look to our market research in determining which options we’ll keep the same or delete, and which ones we want to add to improve ourappeal.”Now that the Neon 2000 is on the market, her team will use survey and research results to determine which option packages work best for the consumer, and what improvements, if any, need to be made. And the beat goes on.Hess supervises 1200 engineers while managing a successful life as wife and mother. Her secret, she said, is to “always try to give 150 percent in everything I do. The only way I can really balance my work and family is by “cheating at both ends”. Forexample,” Hess said “I always take my boys to school on the first day of the year----so I come in a little late. A few times a year I leave work for a couple of hours to see my son in a play or to attend his swim meet.”Like most other successful women in the auto industr y, Hess’s day begins early and ends late. In her case, coaching her son’s basketball game ends some of Hess’s days. “Occasionally,” she adds, “I come in to work on the weekends to catch up on paperwork and mail and have also been known to be called to work while I am on vacation.”1. What is Cindy’s chief res ponsibility now?a. Renewing promising car modelsb. Supervising production.c. Doing market researchd. Developing small cars2. When will a company renew an existing model?a. When is sells well and brings in a good profit.b. When it needs improvement to meet the need of users.c. When some of its features have to be deleted.d. When certain options have to be added.3. What does Cindy mean by “cheating at both ends”?a. Do things for her family when she is supposed to be at work.b. Work for the company while she is supposed to stay at home.c. Meet the demands of both family and work with a flexible schedule.d. Balance the needs of her family against the demands of her work.4. What is Cindy’s secret of success both as a business executive and a woman?a. Hard work.b. Loyalty.c. Enthusiasmd. Creativity.5. Which of the following statements is true of Cindy?a. She always makes sure to attend the big events in the life of her sons.b. She comes to office on most weekends to catch up on her work.c. She always gives priority to work rather than to her family.d. She seldom has time to take a holiday.Passage ThreeExtinction has recently become a catchword. Every day entire species of plants and animals die out, and for the first time in history this is due to the action of just one species: humans. We already know about five mass extinctions, and now a sixth seems to be under way. This one is different, because it is man-made. Deforestation of the rain forests is just one aspect of the phenomenon. Most people may have heard about that, but few people know that most of the species existing in the rain forests have never been described by science. Often they die out before we ever know they existed. Nobody can tell what treasures we lose, perhaps a cure for cancer or other modern-day diseases.World-famous Harvard professor Edward O. Wilson examines life on our planet in his book The Diversity of Life . He doesn't lecture his readers, but states in a matter-of-fact way what is known about the Earth’s past and the impact of mankind on its plant and animal life. Meanwhile, he suggests solutions forthe present crisis.If you are interested in the future of planet Earth and want to learn to see the bigger picture, this is the book for you. This is no light bedtime reading and will probably leave you feeling uneasy However, it’s important for people living in the 21st century to think about how we can pass at least part of this diversity on to our children. Recent research shows that Earth needs about 10 million years to restore the lost diversity of species after a great crisis. Ten million years are not much in terms of the life of a planet, but the period is way too long for mankind. Wilson’s book should help us to start a process of reconsideration.1.Judgin g from the context, what does the word “extinction” mean?a.Death of many plants and animals.b.Killing of wild animals by man.c.Deforestation of the rain forest.d.Dying out of an entire species.2.In what sense is the present mass extinction different from the five previous ones?a.It is larger in scale.b.It is caused by man.c.The lost diversity can never be restored.d.It threatens the very existence of humans.3.Why should people be concerned about extinction?a.Because many existing species have not yet been studied.b.Because the dying species may be of great value to humans.c.Because it may lead to great climate changes on earth.d.Because the dying species can sure cure cancer and other diseases.4.It can be inferred from the passage thata.there are now more species on our planet than beforeb.every plant or animal is described in his book The Diversity of Lifec.without man’s interference every species would have survived.d.many species lived and died without ever being noticed by man.5.What is the chief purpose of Edward in writing the book?a.To provide readers with some interesting bedtime reading.b.To help specialists do research on plant and animal life.c.To arouse readers’ interest in the h istory of our planet.d.To remind us of the urgency of preserving the diversity of life.Passage FourThe history of English is conventionally, if perhaps too neatly, divided into three periods usually called Old English (or Anglo-Saxon), Middle English, and Modern English. The earliest period begins with the migration of certain Germanic tribes from the continent to Britain in the fifth century A. D., though no records of their language survive from before the seventh century, and it continues until the end of the eleventh century or a bit later. By that time Latin, Old Norse (the language of the Viking invaders), and especially the Anglo-Norman French of the dominant class after the Norman Conquest in 1066 had begun to have a substantial impact on the vocabulary, and the well-developed inflectional(词尾变化的) system that typifies the grammar of Old English had begun to break down.The period of Middle English extends roughly from the twelfth century through the fifteenth. The influence of French (and Latin, often by way of French) upon the lexicon continued throughout this period, the loss of some inflections and the reduction of others accelerated, and many changes took place within the grammatical systems of the language. A typical prose passage, especially one from the later part of the period, will not have such a foreign look to us as the prose of Old English, but it will not be mistaken for contemporary writing either.The period of Modern English extends from the sixteenth century to our own day. The early part of this period saw/witness the completion of a revolution in vowel distribution that had begun in late Middle English and that effectively brought the language to something resembling its present pattern. Other important early developments include the stabilizing effect on spelling of the printing press and the beginning of the direct influence of Latin and, to a lesser extent, Greek on the lexicon. Later, as English came into contact with other cultures around the world and distinctive dialects of English developed in the many areas which Britain had colonized, numerous other languages made small but interesting contributions to our word-stock.6. The earliest written record of English available to us started ________.A. from the fifth centuryB. from the seventh centuryC. from the ninth centuryD form the eleventh century7. What characterized the grammar of Old English?A.A well-developed inflectional system.B. The influence of Latin often by way of FrenchC.A limited vocabularyD.A revolution in vowel distribution8. It can be inferred from the passage that today_________.A. a person can pronounce Old English words but cannot understand themB. an educated person can understand Old English but cannot pronounce itC. even an educated person can not read old English without special trainingD. a person with sufficient knowledge of French can understand Old English9. We can infer from the passage that a prose passage from the fifteenth century_______.A. looks like foreign language to contemporary English readersB. looks more like contemporary English than Old EnglishC. can be understood by contemporary readersD. is almost the same as Modern English in grammatical structure10. What is the most remarkable characteristic of Modern English?A. The emergence of new varieties in many parts of the world.B. Gradual changes in its grammatical system.C. Complete loss of its inflectional system.D. Numerous additions to its word-stock.1.The terrorist attack on America on September 11,2001 has met with ______condemnation.a. overallb. universalc. extensived. widespread2.

Paper Two (试卷二)(50 minutes)Part VI Translation (10 points)Directions :Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.Undoubtedly, advanced technology has brought much convenience to us, but modern people, especially students, are not supposed to hinge upon the technology all the time. There are two reasons to support the view. To start with, students shoulder the responsibility of learning. There is a “study”in the word of “student”. Furthermore, the future progress of technology depends upon students. How can they advance the current scientific frontier without a total understanding of the basic knowledge? Of course, students are also supposed to learn by themselves with the help of technology, especially the Internet, for collecting information is an essential ability of modern people. However, there is a clear distinction between relying on the Web for everything and independent study.Part VII Writing (15 points)Directions: Write at least 150 words about the topic: A Better University or a Better Major? You should write according to the outline given below. Write your composition on the Answer Sheet.1.你认为在研究生学习阶段是选择一个好的学校重要还是选择一个好的专业重要?2.你的理由是.......。

But things were even harder for Srikanth Bolla who was born in a small village in India, where the common belief was that kids with disabilities were “of no use” and therefore, better off dead. Fortunately, Srikanth's parents loved their son and refused to give him up. Instead, they encouraged the blind boy to dream big and reach for the stars.Srikanth did not disappoint his parents. The now twenty-seven-year-old is the founder and CEO of Bollant Industries.Of course, getting here was not easy. Being both blind and poor meant that Srikanth had to face hard challenges. As a young boy, Srikanth attended a regular school near his home. Unfortunately, the students and teachers didn't quite like him because of his disability. As a result, the young boy was largely ignored and often spent the entire day alone.Concerned this would hold back Srikanth's development, his family decided to send him to a special school in Hyderabad. Sure enough, the young boy soon rose to the top of his class, winning awards in speech and debate competitions. But Srikanth was prevented from studying sciences when he reached 10th grade, because it was thought too “dangerous” for a blind student. Not wanting to give up, Srikanth took legal action and became the first blind student in the country allowed to study sciences.Later, after graduating from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Srikanth set up Bollant Industries in 2012. For just four years, it became a powerhouse with over 450 employees,70% of whom are physically challenged.Being disabled doesn't mean being unable. “If the world looks at me and says, ‘Srikanth, you can do nothing.’ I will look back at the world and say, ‘I can do anything.’” the young man says.4.Why was Srikanth sent to a special school?A.His parents became richer than before.B.He could be treated equally there.C.This school was free for disabled students.D.He was sent away by the regular school.5.What can we know about Srikanth from the text?A.He was born in a poor village.B.He cared about disabled people.C.His parents were strict with him in his study.D.He was loved by the villagers when he was young.6.What words can best describe Srikanth?A.Intelligent and determined.B.Active and honest.C.Patient and careful.D.Kind but stubborn.7.What can be the best title for the text?A.Chances Are EverywhereB.No Challenges, No SuccessC.A Big Dream Makes a DifferenceD.Disability Doesn't Mean Being UnableC(2024辽宁省试验中学高二月考,中)Max is a 23-year-old software developer who lives in San Francisco. He works for “one of the largest tech companies” in the area. The image of Max you have in your mind right now may be that of a Silicon Valley tech bro: A social, proud young man that shows off his salary and has preference for flashy cars. But his personal passions couldn't be further from that stereotype. Max moderates one of Reddit's biggest forums, r/furry_irl. He is what's commonly known as a “furry”.Furries are identified as animal characters with human traits (特征),and like to dress in animal suits. They go to meet-ups, comment in online groups, and attend conventions, just like any other shared-interest group. Being one or the first abnormal Internet groups to hit the mainstream, furries are often associated withnegative connections. While the mainstream media uses them as a socially awkward, unsuccessful, Internet loser, furries are having the last laugh. Because furries are, in fact, some of society's highest-earners.“Of the furries I've met, just about every single was either gainfully employed or still in school and working toward th eir future careers,” Max tells me. “I have plenty of friends who work at places like Facebook, Discord, Google.” Max isn't unusual in his mix of personal and professional interests: He tells me that most of his furry friends also worked making big money in tech. “On top of being hard workers,” he tells me, “they are just really nice people.” Max does hope that the growing knowledge of furries might help people change their opinions.8.What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?A.Max is satisfied with his work.B.Max has a passion for cars.C.Max is different from what people think of.D.The forum—r/furry_irl is the biggest forum for furries.9.What are furries according to the passage?A.People who often attend conventions.B.Animal characters with human qualities.C.Stories about humans and animals.D.Groups of people who share the same interest.10.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 suggest?A.Furries are so unsuccessful to be laughed at.B.What the mainstream media describe proves to be true.C.Furries always keep a good mood.D.Furries are often successful people with good careers.11.Which statement could be used to judge furries?A.A single flower doesn't make a spring.B.A faithful friend is hard to find.C.Don't judge a book by its cover.D.Great minds think alike.D(2024北京房山高二阶段考试,难)As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory—your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know whether the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “tr ansactive(交互) memory”.According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memory as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memory;that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.12.The passage begins with two questions to .A.introduce the main topicB.show the author's attitudeC.describe how to use the InternetD.explain how to store information13.What can we learn about the first experiment?A.Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.C.The first group did not try to remember the information.D.The second group did not understand the information.14.In transactive memory, people .A.keep the information in mindB.change the quantity of informationanize information like a computerD.remember how to find the information15.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?A.We are using memory differently.B.We are becoming more intelligent.C.We have poorer memory than before.D.We need a better way to access information.其次节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. It allows us to connect with people on a deeper level, to be compassionate, and to offer support when needed. Empathy helps foster relationships, build trust, and create a sense of community.When we empathize with others, we are more likely to act with kindness and understanding. We can put ourselves in someone else's shoes and see things from their perspective.

2011年全国二卷英语作文真题
2011年全国二卷英语作文真题全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇12011 National English Test (Paper 2) WritingPart Ⅴ Writing (1h)In this part, you are asked to write a composition on the topic of How to Develop Healthy Eating Habits. You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:1. 注意饮食习惯对我们的健康有很大影响。

How to Develop Healthy Eating HabitsEating habits play a crucial role in our overall health and well-being. Developing healthy eating habits is essential for maintaining a balanced diet, avoiding health issues, and promoting longevity. In order to cultivate healthy eating habits, there are several key factors to consider.First and foremost, it is important to understand the impact that our diet has on our health. Consuming a diet that is high in processed foods, sugars, and saturated fats can lead to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and other serious health conditions. On the other hand, a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can provide essential nutrients, boost energy levels, and improve overall health.To develop healthy eating habits, it is important to prioritize whole, nutrient-dense foods over processed and unhealthy options. This means incorporating a variety of fruits and vegetables into your meals, choosing whole grains over refined grains, and opting for lean proteins like fish, chicken, and legumes. Additionally, it is important to practice portion control, as overeating can lead to weight gain and other health issues.In my own life, I have found that meal planning and preparation are key to maintaining healthy eating habits. By planning out my meals ahead of time, I can ensure that I have nutritious options available and avoid the temptation of unhealthy convenience foods. I also make an effort to cook at home as much as possible, as this allows me to control the ingredients and portion sizes of my meals.Overall, developing healthy eating habits is essential for leading a happy, healthy life. By making conscious choices about the foods we eat and prioritizing nutrient-dense options, we can improve our overall health and well-being. With dedication and commitment, it is possible to cultivate healthy eating habits that will benefit us for years to come.篇22011 National English Writing Test Paper - Volume 2Task 1: Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic"Learning a foreign language is important because it helps us to communicate with people from different countries."Learning a second language is becoming increasingly important in today's globalized world. As the world becomes more interconnected, the ability to communicate with people from different countries is essential. Learning a foreign language not only helps us to break down barriers and communicate effectively with people from different cultures, but it also opens up new opportunities for travel, work, and education.One of the main benefits of learning a foreign language is that it helps us to connect with people from different countrieson a more personal level. By learning another language, we can better understand and appreciate different cultures, beliefs, and perspectives. This can lead to more meaningful interactions and relationships with people from around the world.In addition to improving our communication skills, learning a foreign language can also open up new opportunities for travel, work, and education. Many companies are looking for employees who are bilingual or multilingual, as it shows that they are open-minded, adaptable, and willing to learn new skills. In addition, studying a foreign language can also enhance our educational and career prospects, as it can help us to stand out in a competitive job market.In conclusion, learning a foreign language is important because it helps us to communicate with people from different countries, break down barriers, and open up new opportunities for travel, work, and education. By learning another language, we can connect with people on a more personal level, appreciate different cultures, and enhance our communication skills. As the world becomes more interconnected, the ability to speak multiple languages is an invaluable skill that can help us to succeed in a globalized world.Task 2: Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic"A Memorable Experience"One of the most memorable experiences in my life was when I traveled to Japan with my family last year. It was a trip that I had been looking forward to for a long time, as I had always been fascinated by Japanese culture, cuisine, and history. From the moment we arrived in Tokyo, I was captivated by the sights, sounds, and smells of this vibrant and bustling city.One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the ancient temples and shrines in Kyoto. As we wandered through the narrow streets and alleys, we were surrounded by the beauty and tranquility of these sacred places. I was amazed by the architecture, the gardens, and the peaceful atmosphere that pervaded these centuries-old sites.Another unforgettable experience was trying authentic Japanese cuisine for the first time. From sushi and tempura to ramen and takoyaki, I savored every bite of these delicious and flavorful dishes. I also enjoyed visiting the local markets and food stalls, where we sampled a variety of street foods and snacks.Overall, my trip to Japan was a truly memorable experience that I will never forget. From exploring the ancient temples of Kyoto to savoring the flavors of Japanese cuisine, every moment was filled with wonder and excitement. I will always cherish the memories of this trip and look forward to returning to Japan again in the future.篇32011 National Second Volume English Writing QuestionsSection A51. 假如你是李华,最近,你班同学就中学生是否该打工展开了讨论。

In our local museum and art gallery there is a full- length (LONG) portrait of a lady standing in a typically (CLASSIC) pose, although she is quite clearly not Greek or Roman, but a (PROSPER) English woman of the eighteenth century. She looks extremely (GRACE) and some might even describe her as a (GOD), although I wouldn’t myself. What is particularly (INTEREST) about this picture is that it tells us things about the period that (ARCHAEOLOGY), with all their digging and exploration, can’t. This lady is (BEAUTY) dressed in clothes typical of the 1750s, but the (DISCOVER) here has nothing to do with fashion, but with an aspect of (CIVIL) which we often do not discuss, namely(DRAIN) – because behind her, through the large window, can be seen piles of clay pipes waiting to be laid in trenches which are being dug in the lawn beyond.III Read the article first and write down your answers to the questions after each item.阅读下面文章,并在每个问题后作答。
Amazing Coincidences‘I never used to believe in coincidences,’says Tom Greenaway. ‘I’m not normally credulous or gullible, but there was something strange about an experience I had recently. I was late leaving for work and was just about to get into my car when my wife called me. My boss wanted me to drop into another office on the way to work to pick up some important papers. The call only delayed me by five minutes, but it was enough. When I reached the office block to collect the papers, there wasn’t much of it left. There had been an enormous explosion of some kind anddozens of people had been killed and injured. If I’d been there a little earlier… .’ Then he added,’Pam Price says: ‘My husband and I were touring in the north of England and stooped in an obscure little village. Before we left home, as usual I had bought a paperback to read. I didn’t know the author and had never heard of the book. I was simply attracted by the cover. I was amazed that night, sitting up in bed, to find that the story was set in the very same village where we were staying. And we found that the novelist often stayed in the small hotel where we were. What are the chances of that happening, I wonder? People pour scorn on things like this, don’t they? I would have a while ago, but not now.’Recently Liz Chance discovered that she had a long-lost twin sister from whom she had been separated at the age of six months. When she and her sister Louise were reunited last year, they found incredibly that they had led almost parallel lives. ‘We found that we had both married in 1996 ad that we had both married a man called Ted: both Teds were antique dealers. We discovered that we are both keen on gardening and listening to jazz, and that we both live in a house in a road call New Road. I always knew something like this would happen.’Which person (哪个人)Chose a book to read on holiday almost by chance?Was reunited with a long-lost sister not long ago?Was somehow prevented from having an accident?Married an antique dealer?Thought that his or her life had been saved by a coincidence?Reads novels when he or she is away?Translate these sentences into Chinese (翻译以下句子)Recently Liz Chance discovered that she had a long-lost twin sister from whom she had been separated at the age of six months.It seems that circumstances do sometimes conspire to prevent accidents happening.My boss wanted me to drop into another office on the way to work to pick up some important papers.Part TwoRecord it in mp3 form when you read the following conversation.
