He doesn’t accept ideas which are not 17 on obvious facts, and therefore refuses to accept authority as the only 18 for truth. He always 19 ideas carefully and makes experiments to prove them.The rise of 20 science may perhaps be considered to 21 as far back as the 22 of Roger Bacon, the wonderful philosopher of Oxford, who lived 23 the years 1214 and 1292. He was probably the first in the Middle 24 to suggest that we must learn science 25 observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 26 many important discoveries.or England 27 began by 28 to show how many important 29 could be discovered by observation. Galileo lived more than 300 years later (1564-1642). Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 30 towards the earth than small ones, 31 Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the 32 of the leaning Tower of Pisa, let fall two 33 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It was Galileo’s 34 of going direct to Nature, and proving our 35 and theories by experiment, that has led to all the discoveries of modern science.16. A. use B. time C. speed D. trust17.

On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again.I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was find the nearest railway station.36. The writer preferred to walk back to his hotel because.A. he had no money to buy a ticketB. he wanted to lose himself in the cityC. he tried to know the city in this wayD. it was late and there were no buses passing by37.

The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes to get it over the counter, and carry it to their tables themselves. People also take their food out of the restaurant and eat it in their cars or in their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order their food, pay for it and pick it up without leaving their cars.There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States, Most of the restaurants sell hamburgers or other popular foods among Americans, In addition, there are many fast food restaurants that serve Chinese food, Italian food, chicken, seafood and ice-cream. The idea of a fast food restaurant is so popular that nearly every kind of food can be found in one.Fast food restaurants are popular because they show the American way of life, First, they are not formal restaurants. People wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing their food or waiting while someone else prepares it. In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally , most food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore, people can often eat at a fast food restaurant without spending too much money, while they may not be able to go to more expensive restaurants very often.41. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Chinese food is also served in some fast food restaurants.B. People can have almost every kind of food in fast food restaurants.C. Fast food is usually expensive.D. Fast food can be taken out of the restaurants.42. Fast food restaurants are popular because they _______ .A. are not formalB. are fastC. are not expensiveD. all of them43. According to the writer, American people ______.A. are always busyB. prefer ordinary type of dressC. do not want to spend too much time preparing their foodD. go to more expensive restaurant very often44. According to the passage, the favorite restaurants in the U.S. are _____.A. the Chinese restaurantsB. the fast food restaurantsC. more expensive restaurantsD. less expensive restaurants45. The best title for this passage would be ______.A. Fast Food Restaurants in the U.SB. The Favorite Food in the U.SC. The American Way of LifeD. Different kinds of RestaurantsCMany years ago, scientists discovered that amino acids, a foundational building block of life forms on earth, also exist in space. One of the primary sources of this knowledge lies in numerous tests run on meteorites(陨星) that have landed on earth. Small traces of amino acids have been found, again and again, from a countless number of meteorites. An American scientist and researcher, Sandra Pizzarello, has recently discovered that the amino acids found on earth share the same simple structure as amino acids found in outer space. This discovery offers proof that extraterrestrial(来自地球外的) life could, quite realistically, resemble life on earth.Many years ago, Pizzarello and a colleague conducted research on amino acids extracted(提取) from a meteorite that landed in Australia in 1969. As they analyzed the material, they discovered a greater number of acids indicating a tendency towards “left-handedness” over “right-handedness”.Further evidence to support these findings came from the analysis of pristine meteorites found in Antarctica. The frozen conditions of Antarctica ensure that meteorites are preserved and remain unaffected by the earth. These buried meteorites are usually discovered due to constant motion of the ice, which eventually brings the objects back to the surface.According to Pizzarello, this discovery is important because it shows that a key molecular (分子的)trait(特征) that defines life here on earth appears to have had the same effect on the cosmic lineage(世系) of life in outer space. In other words, the fictional images of aliens from movies and popular television shows such as Star Trek might be more realistic than we used to think.Is there life on other planets? Do aliens resemble human beings? Maybe one day, with continued scientific research and advancement in space travel and research, we will find out.46. What are amino acids?A. A building material.B. A chemical.C. A life form.D. A building block of life forms.47. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Our knowledge of amino acids from outer space has been gained from the testson meteorites that landed on earth.B. The meteorites found in Antarctica had reamained in good condition largelybecause no one lives there.C. The producers of movies about aliens must have done research on amino acidsfrom meteorites.D. The author doesn’t believe that aliens might exist in outer space.48. What has Sandra Pizzarello discovered recently?A. Extraterrestrial life must resemble life on earth.B. The amino acids found on earth share the same simple structure as amino acidsfound in outer space.C. A lot of acids indicate a tendency towards “right-handedness” over “left-handedness”.D. A key molecular trait has the same effect on the cosmic lineage of life in outer space.49. What has made the discovery of the buried meteorites in Antarctica possible?A. Continued scientific research.B. Advancement in space travel and research.C. The constant motion of the ice eventually brings the objects back to the surface.D. The discovery of amino acids.50. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. Amino Acids Offer Proof of Alien Life in Outer SpaceB. There Is Life in Other PlanetsC. Extraterrestrial Life Resembles Life on EarthD. Small Traces of Amino Acids Have Been FoundDOn my planet, nobody needs to die. It was only ten years ago that scientists here on Xeron developed technology to bring the dead back to life. That does sound strange, doesn’t it? But of course these dead “people” are not made of flesh and blood but celluloid(假象牙) and computer chips. The scientists found that because our population was declining people were becoming longly in their small settlements. So they set to work to solve the problem. After twenty years of dedication they succeeded. They discovered that “people” could be copied from old home movies. The “person” is combined with computer records about him or her to create a virtua l “relative”. The family can chat and live with him or her. Once a family takes up the offer of a constant companion, their upkeep is very cheap. He or she does not need food or clothes, is never ill and does not need haircuts or new shoes.This project has been such a success that the scientists are now working on ways to bring back “people” who died long ago so that they can take on new roles. In 2030 they hope to be able to reproduce some of the great people of the 20th century: perhaps even Karl Marx, Albert Einstein, or Chairman Mao.So if you are lonely, find an old home movies and choose the relative you wouldlike to bring back to life. Then call Xeron 7257 and one of our representatives will call you back. Prices are very reasonable. Call today or write for our brochure for full details at Xeron People Regeneration Ltd, Bonjon 5675, Xeron. Please mark your envelope BROCHURE or quick reply!51. How are these dead “people” different from us?A. They are made of flesh and blood.B. They are made of celluloid and computer chips.C. They are made of flesh and celluloid.D. They are made of blood and computer chips.52. What is NOT true about the copied “people” ?A. Their upkeep is very expensive.B. They don’t need food or clothes.C. They are never sick.D. They don’t need haircuts or new shoes.53. What is the reason for scientists to bring great minds back to life?A. So that they can take on now roles.B. Because scientists want to show off their talents.C. Because people need them.D. So that they can make the same contributions to society.54. When you want a relative to be brought back to life, which of the following ordersis right?a. call Xeron 7257b. find an old home moviec. choose the relative you’d like to bring back to lifed. one of the representatives calls you backe. a relative is brought back to lifeA. a-b-c-d-eB. a-c-b-d-eC. b-c-a-d-eD. b-a-c-d-e55. What do you think is the best title for the passage?A. Humans Can Live LongB. Life Can Be Extended Indefinitely on Xeron!C. A Great DiscoveryD. Great People Will Never Die第四题：阅读表达（共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分）[1]It is now possible to watch live sport on television on any day of the week, and the current amount of reporting will undoubtedly increase further in years to come． This is certainly having an influence on the live sports events themselves, and there are both benefits and shortcomings to this．[2]Why has there been such growth in televised sport? For one thing, with digital broadcasting, there are now many more TV channels than there were even ten years ago．Moreover, sport has become an important form of entertainment, appealing to both men and women．[3]When are the benefits of this state of affairs? One obvious advantage to the profession is the addition of money provided by television companies． Large footballclubs benefit financially from TV income and the top players can command very large salaries． Less popular sports also receive money that can be used in training and awareness-raising． What's more, there is a health benefit to some of the population, because through televised sport, more people have become interested in actually playing sport．[4]However,____________________ if so much sport is on television． Considering football again, many small clubs have suffered financial losses recently, as they cannot compete with the large ones．There has been a general falling in ticket sales, especially among smaller clubs．Fewer people attend live matches nowadays, preferring to watch from the comfort of their living room． And ticket prices have risen greatly．[5]To sum up, while televised sport has created many opportunities and benefited certain people and clubs very much, it has also been responsible for changing the nature of live sports events for ever．56．What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)___________________________________________________________________ 57．Complete the following statement with words from Paragraph 2．(no more than 3 words)There has been a great increase in TV channels in the past few years with the help of____________.58．Point out the advantage of televised sport which does not concern money in Paragraph3.

“aha！〞 moment regarding handwriting.I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task.It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting，and then I realized whose it must be.I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year，maybe two，and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal，friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails.There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters，and we recognized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.As a child visiting my father’s o ffice，I was pleased to recognize，in little notes on the desks of his staff，the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad〞instead of “RFW〞．All this has been on my mind because of the talk about TheRiseandFallofHandwriting，a book by Florey.She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well，but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen.I don’t buy it.I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive，personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.For many a biographer，part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16thcentury Italy.That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings.However，they haveworked in many school systems.1．Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting?A．He had worked with his colleague long enough.B．His colleague’s handwriting was so beautiful.C．His colleague’s handwriting w as so terrible.D．He still had a lot of work to do.2．People working together in an office used to ________.A．talk more about handwritingB．take more notes on workdaysC．know better one another’s handwritingD．communicate better with one another3．The autho r’s father wrote notes in pen ________.A．to both his family and his staffB．to his family in small lettersC．to his family on the fridgeD．to his staff on the desk 4．According to the author，handwritten notes ________.A．are harder to teach in schoolsB．attract more attentionC．are used only between friendsD．carry more messageⅣ.阅读填空The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June，followed by summer vacation.__1__Because long ago，young people had to help their families harvest the summer crops.At least this is what people today may think._2__A recent report from an education policy center at IndianaUniversity explored the historical roots of the traditional school calendar.In the early days of the United States，children were not required to attend school.School calendars depended on local needs.__3__They worked on family farms during the other months.City schools were often open much longer，some for eleven months of the year.After the Civil War，more and more people saw the need for a system of required education._4__Many city schools wanted a shorter year and a longer summer break.The schools were often crowded.There was no modern air conditioning.Hot days would make it difficult to learn.Many rural educators，however，pushed for a longer schoolyear.They thought it would keep children safe from industrial dangers when there were few childlabor laws.So the traditional school calendar was a compromise(折中)．The average school year used to be one hundred and seventy days.Times have not changed much.__5__But some experts think the traditional school calendar needs to change because the needs of the nation have changed.This thinking has led some schools to keep students in class longer.A．Why such a long break?B．Today the common average is one hundred and eighty days.C．Americans think highly of their traditional school calendar.D．Most schools had similar school calendars.E．But the reason has more to it.F．Students in rural areas went to school for no more than

天全中学高2014级2015-2016学年上期第2周周考英语试题〔时间40分钟〕班级：姓名：成绩：第一节：阅读理解〔2*9=18分〕ATea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about it.People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like，mainly because tea was very expensive.It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity.Some of them were not sure how to use it.They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves.Then they served them mixed with butter and salt.They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.Tea remained scarce(稀少的)and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it directly from China early in the 17th century.During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea.Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it，but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added.She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk.She was such a great lady that her friends thought they must copy everything she did，so they also drank their tea with milk in it.Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons drink tea without milk.At first，tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening.No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess(公爵夫人)found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o'clock st opped her getting“a sinking feeling〞as she called it.She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so，teatime was born.1．What do we know about the introduction of tea into Britain?A．Tea reached Britain from Holland.B．The Britons got expensive tea from India.C．The Britons were the first people in Europe who drank tea.D．It was not until the 17th century that the Britons had tea.2．When did tea become a popular drink in Britain?A．In the late 19th century.B．In the 18th century.C．In the 17th century.D．In the 16th century.3．People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because________.A．it tasted like milkB it tasted more pleasantC．it became a popular drinkD．Madame de Sevigne had great influence and people tried to copy her4．According to the passage， the habit of drinking tea in the afternoon in Britain was mostly due to the influence of________.A．a duchessB．people in HollandC．the ancient ChineseD．the upper social classBUntil New York's Chrysler Building was completed in 1930，the EiffelTower was the tallest structure in the world.Located by the river Seine，on an avenue named after its designer，this 985foot(300meter)tower is themost famous edifice(宏伟建筑)in the city of Paris.Gustave Eiffel's idea wascertainly chosen from among 700 proposals(提议)to represent the city in the International Exhibition of Paris in 1889.It commemorated(纪念)the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution.In 1887，three hundred steel workers spent two years constructing the 7,000ton tower.Yet，it was almost torn down two decades after its completion.Luckily，its antenna(天线)，used for telegraphy at the time，saved st July，it looked to observers as though the tower might be destroyed after all，as ominous(不吉利的)black clouds of smoke encircled the structure.Luck was again smiling upon the tower：the fire turned out to be a small one that was quickly put out by attendants on duty.To date，more than 200 million people have visited the Eiffel Tower.However，it has not always been a beloved tourist attraction.At first，Parisians despised it.Its architectural style and metallic composition were not consideredpleasing.Today，the Eiffel Tower is adorned(装饰)with special lights that sparkle for ten minutes each hour，from sunset until one a．m..If you happen to be passing by，look up at this breathtaking monument for an astonishing sight.The Eiffel Tower，composed of iron and steel，is greater than the sum of its parts.5．If you want to see the Eiffel Tower sparkle，when might you stop by?A．115 a．m..B．330 p．m..C．910 a．m..D．000 a．m..6．When was the EiffelTower almost torn down?A．1907.B．1909.C．1889. D．2003.7．At first，what did Parisians think about the tower?A．The steel and iron parts were unimpressive.B．The aweinspiring design was attracting.C．Both A and B are correct.D．Neither A nor B is correct.第二节：完形填空〔20*1.5=30分〕It was a small town in England.The people there worked hard，but they always got poor__1__.The weather was cold and wet and it was bad for their__2__.There was only a primary school in the town and__3__people were so__4__that they couldn't send their children there.Mr Morgan，whose father was the headmaster，was sent to a university in the capital.He__5__law there and knew much.He usually__6__to his hometown during his holidays and a lot of his friends wanted to__7__him.

天全中学2015—2016学年下期高二第2周周考英语试题〔总分为100分时间40分钟〕班级：姓名：成绩：第一节：阅读理解〔8*3=24分〕ANature responds to climate change.To understand it，we need to monitor key life cycle events—flowering，the appearance of leaves，the first frog calls of the spring—all around the world.But scientists can’t be everywhere so they’re turning to nonscientists，sometimes called citizen scientists，for help.A group of scientists and educators set up an organization last year called the National Phenology Network.“Phenology〞 is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.One of the group’s first efforts depends on scientists and nonscientists alike to collect data about plant flowering and leafing every year.The program，called Project BudBurst，collects life cycle data on different kinds of usual plants from across the United States.“People don’t have to be plant experts—they just have to look around and see what’s in their neighborhood，〞 says Jennifer Schwartz，an adviser with the project.“As we collect thi s data，we’ll be able to predict how plants and communities of plants and animals will respond as the climate changes.〞That data will help scientists predict not only how natural communities may change but also how these changes will affect people.Scientists monitoring lilac flowering in the Western United States reported that in years when lilacs bloomed early—before May 20th—wildfires later in the summer and fall are larger and more severe.“Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell，〞 Jennifer says.Improved monitoring is an important step toward predicting how natural communities will respond to climate change.“The best way for us to increase our knowledge of how plants and animals are responding to climate change is to increase the amount of data we have，〞she says.“That’s why we need citizen scientists to get as much information as many places on as many species over as long a time period as we can.〞1．The National Phenology Network is set up to________.A．research how nature makes response to climate changeB．keep a record of what is happening in natureC．make a study of the first frog calls of the springD．judge what plants will die out in the future2．The task of Project BudBurst is to________.A．grow more plants to improve the climateB．collect information about usual plantsC．make citizens tell different plantsD．find out how many kinds of plants there are in America3．By saying “Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell〞in Paragraph 6，Jennifer meant________.A．lilac flowers could make people feel anxious or afraidB．lilacs could warn people of the danger of wildlifeC．the blooming of lilacs could predict the happening of wildfiresD．the flowers of lilacs could be used to wake people up4．This passage is mainly about________.A．why we need to collect data about natureB．when an alarm bell sounds for natureC．what citizen scientists are in AmericaD．how nature responds to climate changeBEvery New Year brings renewed expectation for a change，for a better life and for a better you.That’s a wonderf ul thing，because this fresh start gives us a chance to reinvent our lives and ourselves.Here’s how.Let goMany times we are held back by our previous failures，emotions and barriers.This is all old baggage.Let everything unhappy from the past go.Let go of failures.Let go of fears you’ve built up.Let go of your ideas about what your life has to be like.Let go of longheld beliefs and habits which seem to be burdens to you.Clear away distractions (分心)Clear away email，your favourite blogs and news websites.Clear away the iPhone or BlackBerry，and clear away all the chores that pull at your attention.In fact，if you can，shut off the Internet for a while.You can come back to it after you take a break.Decide what matters most todayForget about your goals for all of this year.Instead，decide what you want to do today.What matters most to you and your life? What are you most passionate about right now？What excites you? What gives you the most fulfillment? Often the answer would be in creating something，making something new，helping others，becoming a better person，and working on a project that you will be proud of.But whatever your answer，have it clear in your mind at the beginning of the day.Reinvent yourself every dayEvery day，you are reborn.Reinvent yourself and your life.Do what matters most to you.It might be the same thing that mattered most yesterday，or it might not be.That isn’t important.What’s important is today—right now? Be passionate，and be happy!You’ll have a fresh start every single day—not just on January 1 of a new year.5．Writing this passage，the author seems to be ________.A．strict B．peacefulC．nervous D．confident6．The underlined word “chores〞 refers to ________.A．modern technology B．unimportant thingsC．online information D．fashionable devices7．Which of the following is the writer’s suggestion according to the passage?A．Stopping using hitech devices to avoid troubles in your life.B．Seizing the moment，but not to make a plan for the far future.C．Forgetting everything about and from the past.D．Making yourself a person reborn every day.8．The most suitable title for the passage is “________〞．A．Work Effectively in a New YearB．Reduce Stress in a New YearC．Freshen the Start of Every New DayD．Live a Better Life in Every New Day第二节完型填空〔20*2.5=50分〕“It is never too late and you are never too old to start something new！〞says Englishtown__1__Ellen Rema.Ellen began to learn English at the age of 50，and in just a few years，she has made__2__progress!Ellen chose to study at Englishtown because no evening classes were__3__in the German countryside where she lives.At Englishtown，she joins__4__classes online and speaks with live native Englishspeaking teachers.“Englishtown is a wonderful place to__5__.〞she says.“My son always s ays，mom，you are a bit__6__.He cannot understand why I spend so many hours studying，__7___love it.I do it for myself.〞In 2001，Ellen began with the first level of Englishtown and quickly__8__.“I spent hours and hours studying，〞she said.“Maybe I wanted too m uch in a short time.I finished all my__9__after 2 years，but noticed I still had__10__difficulties.〞Instead of__11__，she chose to press on.After four years at Englishtown，she’s still studying in the online classroom，but now to perfect her already__12__English，she has set new__13__for herself and__14__understanding grammar points.“Studying online is never__15__，but you need selfdiscipline，selfmotivation and staying power，〞she says.“If you really want to learn，never quit even when you notice difficulties or when you think there is no__16__.Practice，practice，practice！〞Ellen says studying English isn’t all about hard work.It should also be__17__！“I really like the online conversation classrooms，〞she says.“I have learned so much about other cultures and trad itions.I’m open for all __18__.〞Ellen has been able to __19__ her English to use by visiting England five times! “I’m very thankful to Englishtown because most of the English I know now was learned here，〞Ellen says.“My life has __20__ with Englishtown.〞1．A.professor B．friendC．student D．reporter2．A.amazing B．challengingC．discouraging D．disturbing3．A.satisfied B．offeredC．attended D．represented4．A.conversation B．compositionC．listening D．reading5．A.live B．eat C．entertain D．study6．A.crazy B．tired C．worried D．attractive 7．A.though B．butC．while D．when8．A.dropped B．brushed C．awarded D．progressed 9．A.channels B．schedules C．courses D．papers10．A prehending B．reading C．grammar D．vocabulary 11．A.fighting back B．giving up C．turning away D．looking around 12．A.significant B．shabby C．broken D．excellent 13．A.goals B．decisions C．means D．conclusions 14．A.turns off B．gets off C．focuses on D．puts up 15．A.interesting B．boring C．shocking D．unwilling 16．A.vision B．success C．struggle D．tendency 17．A.fun B．waster C．weakness D．wonder 18．A.measures B．topics C．timetables D．fashions 19．A.take B．setC．make D．put20．A.ruined B．started C．changed D．Turned第三节：短文改错〔20*1.3=26分〕ALast year，I was addicted with playing computer games.I found it hard to breaking away from the bad habit.My teacher talked to my parents about this，and they made me to promise not to play those games again.I tried hard，but I found it uselessly.The moment my fingers left the keyboard，I would feel very uncomfortable.Because I was determined to forget the games，I still could not concentrate on the lessons giving in classes.Fortunately，psychological advisor in our school came to know this.He talks with me about his problem.At last，he offered his advices on how to get rid of the addiction.Now I can manage to control myself.BNowadays millions of people of all age take pleasure in a hobby which is both interested and fun.And every year more and more people start a stamp collection of your own and discover an interest which can even last lifetime.Starting your collection of stamps are easy because they are nowhere.Holiday and birthday postcards and letters send by your friends and relatives can provide you for stamps from all over the world.But once you’ve started collecting seriously，you will probably want to join in the Stamp Collectors’ Club which exist to add more stamps to your collection.天全中学2015—2016学年下期高二第2周周考英语参考答案第一节：阅读理解〔8*3=24分〕A篇【解题导语】自然界如何随着气候的变化而产生相应的反响，科学家们为了得到更充分的数据，与有关人员成立了专门组织进展研究。

was a story many years ago of a school teacher—Mrs.Thompson.She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same.But that was a lie.There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard.He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath.She did not like him.Then Mrs.Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.Mrs.Thompson was ashamed of herself.She felt even worse when，like all her other students，Teddy brought her a Christmas present too.It was his mother’s perfume(香水)．Teddy said，“Mrs.Thompson，today you smell just like my Mom used to.”After the children left she cried for at least an hour.On that very day，she stopped teaching reading，writing and math.Instead，she began to teach children.Mrs.Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy.The boy’s mind seemed to come alive.The more she encouraged him，the faster he improved.By the end of the sixth grade，Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy.He wrote that he had finished high school，third in his class，and that she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.He went to college.Mrs.Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed，Theodore F．Stoddard，M.D.(医学博士)．The story didn’t end there.On his wedding day，Dr.Stoddard whispered in Mrs.Thompson’s ear，“Thank you，Mrs.Thompson，for believing in me.Y ou made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”Mrs.Thompson，with tears in her eyes，whispered back，“Teddy，you have it all wrong.Y ou were the one who taught me that I could make a difference.I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”1．What did Mrs.Thompson do on the first day of school?A．She

It was a vision of a place where children and parents could have fun together. The more Walt dreamed of a "magical park," the more imaginative and elaborate it became.The original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax. Although, World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Disney had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn't be enough.Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles. He needed space to build rivers, waterfalls, and mountains; he would have flying elephants and giant teacups; a fairy-tale castle, moon rockets, and a scenic railway; all inside a magic kingdom he called "Disneyland."The search for the best venue for the park ended in the rural Anaheim, California with a purchase of a 160-acre orange grove near the junction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Boulevard.Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954, 12 months before the park was scheduledto open.Some 160-acres of citrus trees had been cleared and 15 houses moved to make room for the park. However, when the real designing came around, Disney met with inevitable questions. How do you make believable wild animals, that aren't real? How do you make a Mississippi paddle ship? How do you go about building a huge castle in the middle of Anaheim, California? Disney asked his movie studio staff for answers. The design of Disneyland was something never done before. There would be four uniquely different theme parts: Adventure land , Frontier land , Fantasyland Tomorrow land. Bit by bit, Disneyland got ready for Opening Day. The staff worked around the clock to get ready.But opening day was a terrible disaster. Beside the terrible opening day conditions, the park did eventually pick up. By 1965, ten years after opening day, 50 Million visitors had come through the gates.51. When did Disneyland open?A. 1953B. 1954 D. 1965C. 195552. The following statements is true except__________.A.About 50 million visitors have visited Disneyland so far.B.Disney must have met many difficulties in building Disneyland.C.World War II had some influence on the building plan of the Disneyland.D.Disney was a great man with great imagination and creativity.53. What can’t you see in Disney?A. rivers, waterfalls, and mountainsB. flying elephants and giant teacupsD. wild animals C. a huge castle54. The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means _________.A. gatherB. improveC. discoverD. good55. What’s the main idea of the passage?A.What visitors can enjoy in Disneyland.B.The difficulties Disney met in building DisneylandC.How Disneyland came into beingD. A brief introduction to DisneylandBBRISBANE—Australian Olympic chief John Coates has said Greek athlete Katerina Thanou should not be awarded the Sydney Olympics 100 metres gold medal handed back by Marion Jones.Jones, who this week admitted to steroid（类固醇）use in the build up to the Sydney Games, has returned the three gold medals and two bronzes she won in 2000.But Thanou, the silver medalist in Sydney, was herself banned for two years after she failed to appear for a drug test at the 2004 Athens Olympics.“I’d like to think that Katerina Thanou would not be awarded the gold medal,” Coates told the Australian Associated Press on Tuesday, “but there may be some legal difficulties for the Internationa l Olympic Committee (IOC) to overcome in order to reach that conclusion.”Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence won the 100m bronze medal in Sydney behind Jones and Thanou.Coates also said he expected the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) to hand back the medals won by the women's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams.Two of Jones’s team mates in the 4x100m team which finished third in Sydney, Torri Edwards and Chryste Gaines, have also served doping（兴奋剂）bans.The U.S. women’s 4x100m relay team won the gold medal ahead o f Jamaica and Russia.“On the relays, it’s my expectation that the United States Olympic Committee will be required to also hand back the medals won by the other ladies who competed with Jones in the two relays,” Coates said.“That is normal practice.”The United States Olympic Committee (USCO) has publicly apologized to the organizers and competitors of the 2000 Sydney Games and the Australian public for Jones’s actions.As part of the USOC’s apology, president Peter Ueberroth promised that the U.S. would send a clean team to next year’s Beijing Olympics.56. Thanou get the Sydney gold medal because________.A. she didn’t pass the drug test.B. she served doping ban at Sydney Olympics.C. she didn’t take the drug test at Sydney Olympics.D. she ran the first at Sydney Olympics.57. Which of the following statements is True?A. Jones has got five gold medals at Sydney Olympics.B. The USCO has returned medals in the two relays.C. Jones also took part in the women’s 4x100m relay race.D. Thanou should receive Sydney gold medal.58. Why did Coates expect the USOC to hand back the medals won in the relay races?A. Because the IOC required them to do so.B. Because some of the runners of the U.S served doping bans.C. Because they didn’t tak e the first place in the relay races.D Because they felt sorry for Jones’s actions.59. What would probably happen next according to the passage?A. Thanou would receive Sydney gold.B. Fewer or no American athletes will serve doping drugs in Beijing Olympics.C. Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence would receive Sydney gold.D. Thanou wouldn’t be allowed to take part in the Beijing Olympics.60. What is the best title of the passage?A. Thanou should not receive Sydney goldB. Jones has returned the Sydney medalsC. Beijing OlympicsD. The U.S would send a clean team to Beijing Olympics.CThe days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society －a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.“My grandmothers didn’t do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers, and the same people who refused their parents’ way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.If you take into consideration feminism(女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50wear red hats and purple clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.“The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn’t go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.“The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “We’re a ladies’ play group. It couldn’t be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.61．The underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means __________.A．one branch of an organization B．a written agreement of a clubC．one part of a collection of poems D．a period in a society’s history of the baby boomers 62．The “baby boomers” are a group of people whoA．have gradually become more noticeableB．tried living a different life from their parents when they were youngC．are worried about getting old too quicklyD．are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend63．We can infer from the text that .A．members of the Red Hat Society are interested in raising money for social workB．members of the Red Hat Society are programmers who can plan well for their futureC．members of the Red Hat Society believers in equality between men and womenD．members of the Red Hat Society are good at cooking big meals and taking care of others 64．Who set up the Red Hat Society ?A．Emily Cornette . B．Jenny Joseph . C．Joe Heywood . D．Ellen Cooper . 65．Women join the Red Hat Society because .A．they want to earn much money. B．they would like to appear more attractive C．they would like to have fun and live for themselvesD．they want to be more like their parentsDBelieve it or not, optical illusion(错觉) can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. But stripes, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive (too great) speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards (danger) are the greatest curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.66. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that ________.A. they should avoid driving fast.B. they are driving in the wrong laneC. they should slow down their speedD. they are coming near to the speed limit67. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former ________.A. can keep drivers awakeB. can cut road accidents in halfC. will look more attractiveD. will have a longer effect on drivers68. What does the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety do?A. change the road signs across the countryB. try out the Japanese method in certain areasC. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD. repeat the Japanese road patterns69. What of the following is true about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?A. They are suitable only on broad roads.B. They are falling out of use in the United States.C. They cannot be used successfully to traffic circles.D. They are ignored in a long period of time.70. What’s the best title of the passage?A. a new pattern for painting highwaysB. a new way of highway speed controlC. a new way of training driversD. a new type of optical illusion答案星期二（U2-M2）第一节单项填空1-5 BBCBD 6-10 AACDB 11-15 BBABB 16-20 DACBA 21-25 CAACB第二节完形填空26-30 AADBA 31—35 CBADC 36—40 DDBCB第三节语法填空41. both 42. before 43.who 44. will be admitted 45. anywhere46. or 47. instead 48. which 49. why 50. that第四节阅读理解51-55 CADBC 56-60 CCBBA 61-65 ABCDC 66-70 CDBDB。

The whip gets all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’ the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight., start a business, travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing,. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become…take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.4. Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To get ready for a fight.B. To entertain the audience.C. To trick the lionD. To show off his skills..5. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They have to do something for showB. They find it hard to make changes.C. They hold on to the wrong things.D. They feel puzzled over choices.6. When the world is “ waving a chair in your face〞, you’re advised to _____A. make a quick decisionB. wait for a better chanceC. break your old habitsD. ask for clear guidance7. What is the author’s attitude towards the expert mentioned in Paragraph3?A. Respectful.B. Supportive.C. Tolerant.D. Doubtful.CAs more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational , Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations —UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the MacmillanCentreYaleUniversity, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethno linguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India , Nepal, Bhutan, and China . But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of importantmaterials-including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded –the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project —Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stories around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.8. What is Turin’s book based on?A. His personal experience in Nepal.B. The cultural studiesC. The documents available at Yale.D. His language research in Bhutan.9. What does “that tradition’ in Paragraph 3 refer to ?A. Telling stories about language usersB. Having full records of the languagesC. Living with the native speaker.D. Writing books on language teaching.10. Which of the following best describe Turin’s work?A. Design, experiment and report.B. Collect, protect and reconnectC. Record, repair and reward..D. Write, sell and donate.二、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最优选项。

It is also changing the way we interact(交流)and build relationship. These are a few of recently recognized features of email，say experts，that should cause individual and organizations to rethink the way they use email.“Email has increased the spread of careless writing habits，〞says Naomi Baron，a professor of linguistics at American University. She says the poor spelling，grammar，punctuation(标点符号)and sentence structure of emails reflect a growing unconcern to the way we write.Baron argues that we should not forgive and forget the poor writing often shown in emails.“The more we use email and its tasteless writing，the more it becomes the normal way of writing，〞the professor says.Others say that despite its poor prose(文字)，email has finished what several generations of English teachers couldn't：it has made writing fashionable again. “Email is a critical new communication technology，〞says Ian Lancashire，a University of Toronto professor of English.“It fills the gap between spoken language and the formal methods of writing that existed before email. It is the purest form of written speech.〞Lancashire says email has the mysterious ability to get people who are scared by writing to get their thoughts flowing easily onto a blank screen.He says this is because of email's close similarity to speech.“It's like a circle of four or five people around a campfire，〞he says.Still，he accepts that this new found freedom to express themselves often gets people into trouble.“Almost everyday I get emails that apologies of previous e mails，〞he reports.In the U. S.，the number of emails sent in a day exceeds (超过)the number of letters mailed in a year. But more people are recognizing the content of a typical email message is not often exact.1. The passages mainly shows us that ________.A. people should stop using email to communicateB. experts hold different opinions about emailC. Americans only use email to communicateD. email makes people lose interest in English2. In Lancashire's opinion，email is a wonderful technique because ________.A. it can be used all over the worldB. it is the fastest way to communicateC. we can express ourselves in a free wayD. we can save a lot of paper3. Which of the following is NOT true about email?A. It is changing the way of communication.B. It is used more than letters in the U. S.C. It helps us write better.D. It causes us to write more.4. The author discusses emails by ________ in this passage.A. giving examplesB. giving others' remarksC. using argumentsD. objective description高二英语周清二答案解析一、单项选择1.答案与解析：A 后句是对前句的解释说明，并不是对前面所述情况的总结，故in other words“换句话说〞符合题意。

江西省横峰县高二英语下学期第2周周练试题-人教版高二全册英语试题
2016-2017学年度下学期高二英语第2周周练试卷第一局部阅读理解〔每题2.5分，总分为10分〕阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中，选出最优选项ACalifornia Condor's Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America's largest birds，with wing－length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s，electrical lines and lead poisoning nearly drove them to dying out. Now，electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s，the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred (繁殖)．Since 1992，there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild，and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona，Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off.“As they go in to rest for the night，they just don't see the power lines，〞says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines，resulting in electrocution (电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles，placed in large training areas，teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but un－deadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced，66% of set－free birds died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead，they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds，and can lead to kidney (肾) failure and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo，where they are treated with calcium EDTA，a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days.
