Part I Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)(20%)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet.For questions I - 7, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG(for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 8 -10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Learn to Behave When Lost in the WoodsLions and tigers and bears, oh, my!It can happen to even an Eagle Scout: The trail disappears, directions get confused, and a sudden turn in the weather forces you away from familiar landmarks. All of a sudden, the thin chain between you and civilization has broken. You're not just Getting Away From It All... you’re lost.But take heart: Losing your way doesn’t have to mean losing your head. Follow the tips in this tutorial to minimize the danger to yourself, and to keep yourself from getting even more lost. You’ll notice that the title of this passage is not “Learn to Get Un-Lost”but “Learn to Behave When Lost in the Woods”. The goal here is not to turn you into a wilderness orientation expert (or a survival expert), but to make it as easy as possible for others to find you safe and sound.“Be Prepared”is the Boy Scout motto, and if you don't believe in making some kind of preparations, you have no business being out in the woods in the first place. Being lost doesn’t kill people; it's the doings without (food, clothing, shelter, medical attention) that does them in.Whether packing for an afternoon picnic or a weeklong hiking, observe the Rule of Change: Prepare not only for the weather conditions that exist when you start out, but for the weather that weather can turn into. You don't need to take an umbrellawhen you’re hiking Death Valley (unless you want some shade), but you should cram a rainhat in your pack in Yosemite, even the forecast calls for sunshine. You don’t need a parka for that day trip, but your clothing should add up to several layers: Put them on or peel them off as the temperature dictates.You should always, always bring matches or a lighter. Put them in your backpack right now—go on, we’ll wait and don't take them out when you clean out your pack (do, however, check to make sure they’re still serviceable). Always bring more water than you expect to drink--and don’t drink it just because you have it. If your mouth is thirsty, you can moisten it with a single mouthful; you don’t need to chug down the bottle.The best way to avoid getting lost is (obviously) to keep to a trail, so resist the temptation to walk off into the virgin wild unless you know exactly what you’re doing. Besides being environmentally unfriendly and often illegal, straying from the trail is flirting with danger. Just as you can drown in an inch of water, you can get hopelessly lost in five minutes of pathless wandering. There’s just one more inflexible rule: Don’t leave for the outdoors unless there’s someone who’ll notice you haven’t returned. You don’t have to post a formal itinerary at the ranger’s office, but at least mention to a friend or family member where you’re going and when you expect to be back. For the price of a phone call, you can keep getting lost from becoming a permanent disappearance.Step One—Don’t PanicFirst of all, get a grip on yourself. Take ten slow, deep breaths (actually count them) if you do feel panicky. It's normal to feel scared, but keep in mind that all you’ve lost is a bit of information. An unknown patch of forest isn’t inherently more dangerous than a known patch. It's just unknown to you.Begin by acknowledging that you’re lost--or if you’re with one or more other people, by gently creating the consensus that you’re lost. Some folks tend to deny the situation, right up to the point where they march off a cliff. Don’t let macho (or macha) attitude endanger everyone.There are two common reactions you’ll want to avoid. One is panic, which usually triggers the flight response in humans. Running wildly around, even for a few minutes, could get you irretrievably lost (if not injured). The other reaction is overcompensation: Deciding that it’s time to play Robinson Crusoe of the Redwoods and trying to build a cabin, search for food, and lay in a cord of wood before nightfall. You may end up spending a night or so in the wild, but conserve your energy. Tired people don’t think as well as rested ones, and they require more food and water to keep going.Step Two--- Judge the SituationNow that you’re calm, collected and-not in denial, sit down and think things through. How long have you been lost? Mentally trace your thoughts back to the last point where you definitely knew your location. How long ago was that? In what general direction have you been traveling since then?If you have a compass, use it now to give your directional sense some bearings: We came from that away and that’s Northwest, but we started walking South--so thetrail must have slowly looped.., and so forth. Even if you don’t have a compass, try to approximate this kind of location-sense while your memories are fresh. If you don't have a compass, see Step 3.Now you have some decisions to make:If you haven’t been lost long and seem to be in relatively safe terrain (not surrounded by rockslides or thorn bushes, for instance), you may decide to retrace your steps. If so, skip to Step 3.If the circumstances suggest that further wandering may be dangerous (night is falling, cliff edges abound), then you may want to stay out and wait for rescue. If so, skip to Step 5.Step Three - Retrace your Steps (if appropriate)If you’ve decided to try and undo your error, then hike in the direction from which you came, keeping careful track not only of orientation but of time. If you’ve been lost for ten minutes but a ten-minute walk doesn’t return you to your trail, you’re just getting more lost. In such a case, pause and return to your original location, then try again.When retracing: Try tracking yourself. You weren’t on a trail, so you probably left tracks you can follow in reverse. One handy trick is to frequently look over your shoulder as you’re retracing--the idea is to recreate the view you had when you were walking there in the first place. Looking back might refresh your memory of a particular landmark, or help you recognize familiar terrain.If you don’t have a compass: To be certain you won’t stray from your intended direction, line up three landmarks in the direction you want to go, all following a straight line from your line of sight. Then walk in a beeline (i. e., as straight as possible), keeping the landmarks in sight.Leave a sign: As you go, it’s a good idea to leave markers, or a sign, to help potential rescuers locate you. Ways to leave a sign include dragging a heavy stick, propping up sticks or rocks in unnatural ways or making a flag from a stick and some trash or a cloth.Step Four--Try to Pick up a Trail (if appropriate)Can’t find your trail? If you’ve opted to stay mobile, you might want to pick up any old trail...any path that probably leads to somewhere, if only to a better path. In that case:Keep in mind that trails are usually in logical places, i.e. where the land will be more traversable. Search next to creeks or rivers, on or below ridges, and across meadows. Holding an eye to your present location, wander around in the immediate area, say 50 yards/meters in all directions. Like looking over your shoulder (see Step 3), the change in perspective may jog your memory. If you’re not alone you can range even further.Designate one person as the stay-put “anchor”, and have the others wander around within earshot. Have the anchor shout out periodically--yelling out the time every minute on the minute is a good idea.1. This tutorial’s goal is to turn you into a wilderness orientation expert or a survivalexpert.2. It is essential that you always bring matches, a lighter and a knife in your backpack and don’t take them out when you clean out your pack.3. According to the passage, if it’s daytime, it is unnecessary to build a fire.4. Give your friends or family members a phone call and tell them your return time, or you will lose the chance of being found in case you get lost in the woods.5. If you get lost, you should keep calm because all that you’ve lost maybe just a bit of information.6. One of the common reactions when you get lost is fear, which may cause you running around wildly.7. When you calm down a little bit, try to think twice and discuss how to find another way.8. If you’re lost for ten minutes but a ten-minute walk doesn’t return you to your trail, you'd better stop and .9. The passage in Step Three suggests that it’s a good idea to leave markers, or a sign to .10. Step Four mentions that trails are usually in logical places, try to seek trails near .Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: Choose the best answer you think fit to fill in the gaps of each sentence with the items given.

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 31 to 40 are based on the following passage.Nowadays, is it possible to tell a person’s class just by looking at him? Physical details __31__ tell us about health, diet and type of work done. A hundred years agothe working class very often looked unhealthy, small and were either too thin or too fat. The upper classes were often __32__, sporting types who were used to a good diet and looked healthy. Today living and working conditions have improved, and such __33__ would no longer be so true. The clothes people choose to wear, however, do provide information about their __34__. The most obvious way in which is for the amount of money spent on them. Expensive clothes look expensive and show their wearer have money. Clothes can provide other __35__ as well. The upper classes __36__ to be less interested in fashion and wear good quality clothes in non-bright colors, made of natural material like wool, leather or cotton. Lower working class people often choose clothes in bright colors, made of man-made material. A sociological explanation for this would be that color and interest are missing from their lives, and therefore any opportunity to introduce this is __37__. Clothes are __38__ at a price within most people’s reach. New clothes make the wearer feel good, and show some __39__ of wealth to the outside world. Today some new fashions are started by the lower working class people who want to look __40__ and feel important. They want people to look at them.A) available B) background C) different D) tall E) totally F) takenG) descriptions H) degree I) clues J) alone K) appearL) consider M) full N) hobby O)fetchedSection BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A) , B) , C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.In a country that defines itself by ideals, not by shared blood, who should be allowed to come, work and live here? In the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing.On Dec. 11, 2001, as part of the effort to increase homeland security, federal and local authorities in 14 states staged “Operation Safe Travel”-- raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification. In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests. But those captured were anything but terrorists, most of them illegal immigrants from Central or South America. Authorities said the undocumented workers’illegal status made them open to blackmail by terrorists.Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods. Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent. “We’re saying we want you to work in these places, we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it’s convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of nationalsecurity, especially after Sept. 11, then you’re disposable. There are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons”, Anderson said.If Sept. 11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in America, probably indefinitely. Aha Castro, a manager at a Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop at the airport, had been working 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid. Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation. Castro’s case is currently waiting to be settled. While she awaits the outcome, the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben & Jerry’s.41. According to the author, the United States claims to be a nation .A) composed of people having different values B) encouraging individual pursuitsC) sharing common interests D) founded on shared ideals42. How did the immigrants in Salt Lake City feel about "Operation Safe Travel"?A) Guilty B) Offended C) Disappointed D) Discouraged43. Undocumented workers became the target of “Operation Safe Travel”because .A) evidence was found that they were potential terroristsB) most of them worked at airports under threat of terrorist attacksC) terrorists might take advantage of their illegal statusD) they were reportedly helping hide terrorists around the airport44. By saying “... we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are”(Line 2, Para. 3 ), Mayor Anderson means" ".A) we will turn a blind eye to your illegal statusB) we will examine the laws in a different wayC) there are other ways of enforcing the lawD) the existing laws must not be ignored45. What do we learn about Ana Castro from last paragraph?A) She will deported sooner or later B) she is allowed to stay permanently C) Her case has been dropped D) Her fate remains uncertainPassage TwoQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Until the 1980s, the American homeless population comprised mainly older males. Today, homelessness strikes much younger part of society. In fact, a 25-city survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors in 1987 found that families with children make up the fastest growing part of the homeless population. Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient and frequently frightened student population creates additional problems—both legal and educational—for already overburdened urban school administrators and teachers.Estimates of the number of homeless Americans range from 350,000 to three million.Likewise, estimates of the number of homeless school children vary radically. A U.S. Department of Education report, based on state estimates, states that there are 220,000 homeless school-age children, about a third of whom do not attend school on a regular basis. But the National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that there are at least two times as many homeless children, and that less than half of them attend school regularly.One part of the homeless population that is particularly difficult to count consists of the “throwaway”youths who have been cast of their homes. The Elementary School Center in New York City estimates that there are 1.5 million of them, many of whom are not counted as children because they do not stay in family shelters and tend to live by themselves on the streets.Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children. The educational provisions of the McKinney Act are based on the belief that all homeless children have the right to a free, appropriate education.46. It is implied in the first paragraph that ____.A) the writer himself is homeless, even in his eightiesB) many older homeless residents are going on strike in 25 citiesC) there is a serious shortage of academic facilitiesD) homeless children are denied the opportunity of receiving free education47. The National Coalition for the homeless believes that the number of homeless children is _____.A) 350,000 B) 1,500,000 C) 440,000 D) 110,00048. One part of the homeless population is difficult to estimate. The reason might well be ____.A) the homeless children are too young to be counted as childrenB) the homeless population is growing rapidlyC) the homeless children usually stay outside schoolD) some homeless children are deserted by their families49. The McKinney Act is mentioned in this passage in order to show that ___.A) the educational problems of homeless children are being recognizedB) the estimates on homeless children are hard to determineC) the address of grade-school children should be locatedD) all homeless people are entitled to free education50. The passage mainly deals with ____.A) the legal problems of the homeless childrenB) the educational problems of homeless childrenC) the social status of older malesD) estimates on the homeless populationPart IV Cloze (10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blanks there are four choices marked A)B)C)and D). You should choose the ONE that best fits intothe passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.It is an annual back-to-school routine. One morning you wave goodbye, and that __51__evening you’re burning the late-night oil in sympathy. In the race to improve educational standards, __52__are throwing the books at kids. __53__elementary school students are complaining of homework __54__. What’s a well-meaning parent to do?As hard as__55__may be, sit back and chill, experts advise. Though you’ve got to get them to do it, __56__ helping too much, or even examining __57__too carefully, you may keep them__58__doing it by themselves. “I wouldn’t advise a parent to check every__59__assignment,”says psychologist John Rosemond, author of Ending the Tough Homework. “There’s a __60__of appreciation for trial and error. Let your children__61__the grade they deserve.”Many experts believe parents should gently look over the work of younger children and ask them to rethink their__62__. But “you don’t want them to feel it has to be__63__,”she says.That’s not to say parents should__64__homework --first, they should monitor how much homework their kids__65__. “Thirty minutes a day in the early elementary years and an hour in__66__four, five, and six is standard”, says Rosemond. For junior-high school students it should be “__67__more than an hour and a half,”and two for high-school students. If your child__68__has more homework than this, you may want to check__69__other parents and then talk to the teacher about__70__assignment.51. A) very B) exact C) right D) usual52.

浙江省杭州师范大学附属中学2023-2024学年高二下学期期中考试英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解If you want to know something about British life, their spirit, and even their humor, watching some classic British films will certainly help. Here are some recommended to you. Notting Hill After the success of his film Four Weddings and a Funeral, writer and producer Richard Curtis captured the essence of being British in 1999’s Notting Hill. Set against the background of affluent (富足的) West London, the film became popular for its charming and funny portrayal(刻画) of a British nobody trying to impress a Hollywood star. The Full MontyThis 1997 film is a Sheffield-based comedy about six unemployed men who form a group to make money for a better life. Despite its hummer, the film dives deeper into some serious issues surrounding working-class culture. The Full Monty is an uplifting film that gives an insight into the work and life of the working class in Britain. TrainspottingDanny Boyle’s 1996 comedy-drama Trainspotting is about a group of Scots in the 1980s, based on the book by Irvine Welsh. With a cast of truly great actors including Ewan MeGregor, the tale impressed the audience globally. It rapidly became a critical success. Monty Python’s Life of BrianFeaturing a jam-packed cast of comedic stars. Monty Python’s Life of Bria n tells the story of a young man who is in a case of mistaken identity. The film reflects the unusual and wonderful British sense of humour. As a film guaranteed to entertain, Monty Pythons Life of Brian is not to be missed by those looking for an insight into what makes the British laugh.1.What can the audience learn about by watching The Full Monty?A.Hardships of comedic stars B.Daily life of people in West LondonC.Unique experiences of some Scots. D.Life of the British working class.2.What kind of film does Monty Python’s Life of Brian belong to?A.A comedy film. B.A science fiction film.C.An action movie D.A horror movie.3.Which of the following films is adapted from a book?A.Notting Hill. B.The Full Monty.C.Trainspotting. D.Monty Python’s Life of Brian.Earlier this year I took a trip to England and France to go see some friends. It was a wonderful trip; I really loved it. But one thing that struck me was how different these cultures are from our own. I guess this would strike any traveler because that is the first thing you notice and it is what makes travel so exciting. Of course, these cultures are also similar to ours in many respects, but it’s the differences that real ly stand out.One of the things that struck me in particular was the different attitudes towards smoking. As you know, there’s a growing anti-smoking sentiment in Europe. However, when I went to England and France, I got a new perspective on this issue. People seem to smoke anywhere and everywhere, even though anti-smoking signs are all over public places. On the radio, I heard about a member of the World Cup soccer team who smoked. And people were actually saying, “Well, he should not be on the team becaus e he’s a bad example for our children.” I think, if they want to look at bad examples for their children, they should just go out on the street, or go into the subways, or look in the mirror, even, because so many of them are smoking in very inappropriate places. I visited a restaurant buffet in London and saw an English woman scooping up the food with a lit cigarette in her hand. Smoke rising into the air. Actually, when I talked to English people later, they were pretty shocked too, and they said that smoking in a restaurant is rude even by British standards.This did not give me a bad impression of English people. It gave me, on the contrary, a positive feeling toward American smokers. There are a lot of American smokers who will proclaim their right to smoke whenever they want, but they will follow the rules, generally, because they have consideration for nonsmokers. So this experience in Europe gave me more of a respect for this kind of smoker.4.What surprised the writer during his trip to England and France?A.The wonderful trip to England and France.B.Cultural differences that he noticed during his trip.C.Similarity between cultures stands out more than differences.D.Growing anti-smoking views in Europe.5.What did the speaker find in England and France about the smoking issue?A.People discuss the smoking issue on the radio.B.Smokers are allowed to smoke anywhere and anytime.C.People are encouraged to smoke in inappropriate places.D.Many smokers pay no attention to the “No Smoking” signs.6.The w ord “sentiment” in the second paragraph means ______.A.feeling B.movement C.offense D.regulation 7.What kind of smokers does the speaker respect?A.Those who are from America and Europe. B.Those who respect others’ feelings.C.Those who defend the right to smoke. D.Those who set rules of smoking in public places.A new research led by University of Pittsburgh psychologists shows that older adults may be able to prevent declines (衰退) in a certain kind of memory by sticking to regular exercise.From the study, exercising about three times a week for at least four months is how much people need to obtain the benefits in episodic memory. Episodic memory, which is supported by a part of the brain that’s known to benefit from exercise, is the kind that deals wit h events that happened to you in the past. It’s also one of the first to decline with age.Exercise that gets the heart pumping has shown promise in increasing brain health, and experiments in mice show that it improves memory —but studies looking at the same link in humans have come out mixed.During the research, the team read 1,279 studies carefully, eventually narrowing them down to just 36 that met specific criteria (标准). Then they used specialized software and no small number of Excel spreadsheets to transform the data into a form where the different studies could be directly compared. That work paid off when they found that pooling together those 36 studies was enough to show that for older adults, exercise can indeed benefit their memory.Past analy ses looking at connections between exercise and memory didn’t find one, but the team took several extra steps to give them the best chance of finding a link if one did exist. They limited their search to particular groups and age ranges as well as a specific kind of strictexperimental setup. Another key was focusing specifically on episodic memory.With that much larger pool of participants, the team was able to show a link between exercise and episodic memory.

For decades now, we have assumed that most of them are simply born with a talent that ordinary people do not have. When baseball legend Ted Williams claimed that his achievement had nothing to do with natural ability but were the result of practice, practice, practice, people assumed that he was merely being modest. But scientists now believe that there was a good deal of truth in what hesaid.Throughout the last century, it was accepted that we inherit (继承)many of our characteristics from our parents via their DNA, that each of us inherits a fixed amount of intelligence -a fixed IQ, and that most of us are to be ordinary. But now it is accepted that our genes interact with their surroundings, getting turned on and off all the time. “There are no genetic factors that can be studied independ ently of the environment,” explains Michael Meaney of McGill University. “And there are no environmental factors that function independently of our genes. They work alongside each other.”How does this view of the role of genes change our understanding of individual talent and abilities? Does it now mean that genes don’t matter, and that we all have the potential to be like, say, Lionel Messi or Lebron James? Such a claim flies in the face of reason. The genes we inherit clearly matter, as do genetic differences between individuals. But it is also true that Lionel Messi would not have become the super footballer he is, nor Lebron James a basketball superstar, without putting in thousands of hours of practice. They could have turned out entirely different peo ple. Talent researcher Kevin Rathunde agrees. “High academic achievers are not necessarily born much smarter than others but genes do count,” he writes in his book Talented Teenagers, “and above all they usually work harder and develop more self-discipline.”12.What did Ted Williams think led to his success?A.His natural talent. B.His full commitment.C.His modest personality. D.His extraordinary intelligence.13.What did we widely believe during the 20 century?A.Intelligence has little to do with DNA.B.Our genes interact with our environment.C.The majority of us are of average intelligence.D.Our character is simply decided by inherited DNA.14.Why does the author mention “Lionel Messi” and “Lebron James” in paragraph 3?A.To clarify a point. B.To illustrate a rule.C.To offer a solution. D.To make a prediction.15.Which statement will Kevin Rathunde probably agree with?A.Most of us are born to be average persons.B.We could all be geniuses if working hard enough.C.Genetie factors are more important than hard work.D.Great talent is a combination of genes and practice.How to Stay Motivated When the Going Gets ToughThere will undoubtedly be times when the going gets tough in your life and you find yourself struggling with motivation. When this happens, you’d better have a few tricks up your sleeve to help you stay motivated and move forward.There are a variety of reasons for feeling unmotivated. 16 It’s of great significance to take some time to understand why. The best way is to look back at where you began to lose motivation. Once you know the cause of your problem, finding a solution will become easier.Going back to your goals can also help. A simple reminder of your objectives can get you back on track. 17 Seeing your goals in this form makes them feel more real and achievable.18 A specific plan can keep you focused and allow you to track your progress, while sticking to it helps you develop discipline. These are of great importance when it comes to making progress toward your goals.Another trick is to take a moment and acknowledge how far you’ve come. There are different ways to acknowledge your efforts, like treating yourself to a meal or taking a break for reflection. You may find that even the smallest events can be the biggest moments. 19 The most important thing might be to surround yourself with like-minded individuals who can offer support and encouragement. 20 If you’re feeling lost, just reach out to your support system for guidance and insight.A.They can help you handle all those problems.B.It’s important that you appreciate your efforts.C.Writing them down will always be a great choice.D.Moreover, it’s better to set a goal when creating your plan.E.Being around understanding people can make the journey less discouraging.F.Besides, you should make and follow through with a plan to stay motivated.G.It could be due to a lack of interest in the task at hand, or it could be the result of stress.二、完形填空The suburb I live in backs on to a large nature reserve.

I was an ambulance driver, 27 overnight rescues. We rescued hundreds of animals and 28 more.One day, I thought why not 29 my own rescue group focusing on my backyard? I purchased a two-acre property and built enclosures on it to 30 injured animals. Last year, I planted 300 eucalyptus trees (桉树), with seven varieties to 31 the koalas.I cut the leaves of the eucalyptus trees for the koalas to eat and look after the 32 wildlife at our centre. If they recover, they are 33 back to where they come from.As a kid I would never have imagined doing this. I feel like I’m the 34 girl on the planet that I get to do what I love.

It is not so widely known that he was colour-blind.Dalton didn’t know his eyesight was a bit unusual until one day in his boyhood when he was watching soldiers. One of the boys with him mentionedthe bright colour of the red coats of the soldiers, but Dalton said they looked the colour of grass. All the other boys laughed at him, and this made him think his eyes differed from theirs. But he was not finally sureof this until he was twenty-six, when his attention was fixed on some flowers.Bright colours, especially red, appear in many stories about Dalton because his eyesight was not like that of most people. Little was known about this eye trouble until he made a deep study of it and published his results in 1794. Most people, he wrote, can see six different colours inthe spectrum (光谱): red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple, but he could not. Yellow, orange and green looked almost the same as red. But he said he could tell blue and purple.41. According to the passage, Dalton began to make a study of some flowers__________.A. in 1794B. as he was a boyC. in the 1790sD. in his late life42. What made Dalton feel quite certain about his colour-blindness?4A. The colour of grass.B. The colour of some army uniforms.C. The results of the study of his eye trouble.D. His being laughed at in telling colours by the other boys.43. From this passage, we may conclude that Dalton __________.A. could not see coloursB. was unable to tell certain coloursC. liked bright colours much more than light coloursD. was not able to see farther objects than most people44. Which are the colours that make no difference to Dalton?A. Red, purple and blue.B. Red, gray, brown and blue.C. Black, green, white and red.D. Red, yellow, green and orange.45. According to the passage, why was Dalton colour-blind?A. Because he had touched too many chemicals.B. Because his parents were both colour-blind.C. Because he was very interested in chemistry.D. No reason for it is given in the passage.(B)Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and5he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is usually afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control (控制). Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.46. What is true about children when they play games?A. They can stop playing any time they like.B. They can test their personal abilities.C. They want to pick a better team.D. They don’t need rules.47. To become a leader in a game the child has to __________.A. play wellB. wait for his turnC. be confident in himselfD. be popular among his playmates48. What do we know about grown-ups?A. They are not interested in games.B. They find children’s games too easy.C. They don’t need a reason to play games.D. They don’t understand children’s games.49. Why does a child like playing games?A. Because he can be someone other than himself.B. Because he can become popular among friends.C. Because he finds he is always lucky in games.D. Because he likes the place where he plays a game.50. The writer believes that __________.A. children should make better rules for their gamesB. children should invite grown-ups to play with them6C. children’s games can do them a lot of goodD. children play games without reasons英语试卷五参考答案:I.

He held up a glass of water and asked the class, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is?"The students' answers are in the range from 20g to 500g. "It does not matter on the weight itself. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, I will have to see the doctor. It is exactly the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. "“If we carry our burdens (负担) all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden is becoming increasingly heavier. ""What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again. "We have to put down the burden sometimes, so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on. So before you return home from work tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it back home. You can pick it up tomorrow.Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders, let it down for a moment if you can.1.

One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of cars, driving trucks, building roads or filling cars with gas (汽油). Americans won’t live without cars!Most Americans find it hard to think what life would be without a car. However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. The polluted air is poisonous (有毒的) and dangerous to health.One way to get rid of (排除)the polluted air is to build a new kind of car. That’ s whatseveral of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean caris easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.Another way is to take the place of the car engine (发动机)by something else. Engineersare now working on some new cars. Many makers believe that it will takeyears to develop a practical model that pleases man.To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we’ll have to make some changes in the way many of us live. Americans, for example, have to cut down on the number of their cars. They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. Riding a bike is thought to help keep the air clean.But this change does not come easily — a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment (失业).Although cars have brought us a better life, they have also brought us new problems.36.Some large car factories in the USA are trying to build a new kind of carwhich_ .A.is clean in itselfB. is used to clean streetsC. does not pollute the airD. is easier to make37.If the number of cars is cut down, the most serious problem to Americanworkers is toA.have no work to doB. improve their environmentC. make their factories richerD. go to work by bike38.The writer wants to tell us that .A.riding a bike is the only way outB.the number of cars must be cut downC.man won\’t live without carsD.cars bring us not only a better life but also serious problems39.Which fact does the passage provide?A.About one sixth of American workers are working in car factories.B.The best way to get rid of air pollution is to change the car engine bysomething else.C.It isn’t easy to change the way of life in the USA.D.In the USA bikes will surely take the place of cars in the future.40.Which is the best title (标题) for the passage?A.

2020年杭州师范大学附属中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AAmid the coronavirus outbreak, the U. S. Department of Homeland Security recommends having at least a two - week supply of water and food.PotatoesShelf life:2 to 5 weeks if stored in a cool, dry, dark placeYukon Gold, red, and fingerling potatoeswill last from two to three weeks. Larger white potatoes can last for three to five weeks. Sweet potatoes have about the same shelf life. Don't store them next to onions, however. The two might go together well in cooking, but raw, each gives off gases and moisture that might cause the other to spoil faster.Tea※Shelf life:6 to 12 months past "sell - by" dateDried tea leaves, whether loose (in a sealed container) or in teabags (in an unopened box) can easily last a year or more if they' re not subjected to damp or humidity. However, the tea does tend to lose flavor over time.Peanuts● Shelf life:1 to 2 monthsPeanuts in their shell, especially when kept cool and dry, are perfectly happy in the cupboard for as long as two months.Canned fruits and vegetables● Shelf life:1 to 2 years past "sell - by” dateCanning is an extremely efficient means of preserving food. Generally speaking, if canned foods aren't subjected to extreme heat, their contents should stay good for two years or more. Be aware, however, of dented cans or those with swollen tops, which may indicate the presence of bacteria inside.1. Which can go bad faster if stored with onions?A. Potatoes.B. Tea.C. Peanuts.D. Canned fruits and vegetables.2. What is special about tea?A. The flavor of tea can always remain the same.B. Tea leaves are better to be preserved in an open jar.C. Tea leaves should be kept away from the state of being wet.D. The maximum length of time that tea can be stored is 6 months.3. What may shorten the "sell - by” date of canned foods ?A.

He teaches in the area where having electricity is something of a luxury and students have no access to mobile apps or computers, which became a problem when Guatemalan government had to choosedistance education for students at home because of COVID-19 inmid-March.Gerardo Ixcoy felt that he had to teach those children living far from the digital world. After all, education is a universal right. But what was the solution?Gerardo bought himself a secondhand tricycle with his savings. Once he had the tricycle, the next step was to change it into a classroom on wheels. He put a roof with a solar panel(太阳能电池板)on it, along with a screen to avoid the spread of COVID-19. He fixed a whiteboard on it so he could explain to the students the basics of primary education:math, the local language and the national language Spanish.The purpose of the solar panelis to provide constant power for a small loudspeaker so he can teach from a distance. It's a matter of respecting the healthy distance required to be safe from the virus. He, the teacher, stays outside, and the student participates from his or her house.He tries to visit his students at least twice a week, riding his classroom — cycle. The children he serves say that, although he visits them for only a few hours a week, they look forward to it. They appreciate his visit because they know he has limited time he can devote to them. They must take advantage of it to learn.4. What happened to Gerardo Ixcoy's students because of COVID-19?A. They chose to have classes in groups.B. They had to stop all the classes.C. They continued to have classes online.D. They started to learn about computers.5. Why does the teacher stay from a distance while teaching?A. Because healthy distance is reqired.B. Because he doesn't want to see his students.C. Because he wants to show his authority.D. Because the local custom reqiries him to.6. Where did Gerardo Ixcoy teach his students?A. In his own house.B. In his student's house.C. On the school playground.D. Outside his student's house.7. What can be the best title of the story?A. Love breaks down barriers.B. Hard work pays off.C. Time is money.D. Education is the key to success.CBill Gates on how to fight future pandemicsWHEN HISTORIANS write the book on the covid-19 pandemic, what we've lived through so far will probably take up only the first third or so.The bulk of the story will be what happens next.I believe that humanity will beat this pandemic, but only when most of the population is vaccinated(接种疫苗).Until then, life will not return to normal.As the pandemic slows in developed nations,itwill accelerate in developing ones.Their experience,however,will be worse.In poorer countries,where fewer jobs can be done remotely,distancing measures won't work as well.The virus will spread quickly,and health systems won't be able to care for the infected.Wealthy nations can help.But people in rich and poor places alike will be safe only once we have an effective medical solution for this virus,which means a vaccine.My hope is that,by the second half of 2021,facilities around the world will be manufacturing a vaccine.If that's the case,it will be a history-making achievement: the fastest humankind has ever gone from recognizing a new disease to immunizing(免疫)against it.Apart from this progress in vaccines,two other big medical breakthroughs will emerge from the pandemic.One will be in the field of diagnostics.The next time a novel virus crops up,people will probably be able to test for it at home.Researchers could have such a test ready within a few months of identifying a new disease.The third breakthrough will be in antiviral drugs.We haven't been as effective at developing drugs to fight viruses as we have those to fight bacteria.But that will Researchers will develop large diverse libraries ofantivirals,which they'll be able to scan trough and quickly find effective treatments for novel viruses.All three technologies will prepare us for the next pandemic by allowing us to intervene(干预)early when the number of cases is still very low.Our progress won't be in science alone.It will also be in our ability to make sure everyone benefits from that science.In the years after 2021,I think we'll learn from the years after 1945. With the end of the Second World War, leaders built international institutions like the UN to prevent more conflicts.After covid-19, leaders will prepare institutions to prevent the next pandemic.These will be a mix of national,regional and global organizations.I expect they will participate in regular"germ games”in the same way as armed forces take part in War games.These will keep us ready for the next time a novel virus jumps from bats or birds to humans.I hope wealthy nations include poorer ones in these preparations,especially by devoting more foreign aid to building up their primary health-care systems.This pandemic has shown us that viruses don't obey border laws and that we are all connected biologically by a network of microscopic germs,whether we like it or not.The best analogy(类比)for today might be November 10th 1942.Britainhad just won its first land victory of the war,and Winston Churchill declared in a speech: “This is not the end.It is not even the beginning of the end.But it is,perhaps,the end of the beginning.”8. What are the three technologies that will prepare us for the next pandemic?①manufacturing a vaccine fast②diagnosing a virus at home③developing antiviral drugs④allowing us to intervene earlyA. ①②③B. ①②④C. ①③④D. ②③④9. As far as poorer countries areconcerned,which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?A. pandemic disease is more likely to begin in poorer countriesB. Working from home can work well in poorer countries.C. Health systems are sufficient to care for the infected in poorer countries.D. Virus will cross borders if poorer countries fail to contain it.10. Why is the Second World War mentioned in Para.8?A. The fight against the COVID-19 is similar to the Second World War.B. People are suffering just as they were in the Second World War.C. We should cooperate globally just as we did after the Second World War.D. Countries are fighting each other like in the Second World War.11. What is the tone of this passage?A. pessimisticB. optimisticC. neutralD. indifferentDCuckoos don’t bother building their own nests—they just lay eggs that perfectly imitate those of other birds and take over their nests. But other birds are wishing up, evolving some seriously impressive tricks to spot the cuckoo eggs.Cuckoos are often know asparasites, meaning that they hide their eggs in the nest of other species. To avoid detection, the cuckoos have evolved so that eggs seem reproduction of those of their preferred targets. If the host bird doesn’t notice the strange egg in its nest, the little cuckoo will actually take the entire nest for itself after it comes out, taking the other eggs on its back and dropping them out of the nest.To avoid this unpleasant fate for their young, the other birds have evolved a few smart ways to spot the fakes, which we’re only now beginning to fully understand. One of the most amazing finds is that birds have an extra colour-sensitive cell in their eyes, which makes them far more sensitive to ultraviolet wavelengths and allows them to see a far greater range of colours than humans can. This allows cautious birds to detect a fake egg which might be exactly the same to our eyes.Fascinatingly, we’re actually able to observe different bird species at very different points in their evolutionary war with the cuckoos. For instance, some cuckoos lay their eggs in the nests of the redstarts. The blue eggs these cuckoos lay are practically alike to those of the redstarts, and yet they are still sometimes rejected. Compare that with cuckoos who target dunnocks. While those birds lay perfectly blue eggs, their cuckoo invaders just lay white eggs with brown irregular shaped spots. And yet dunnocks barely ever seem to notice the obvious trick.Biologists suspect these more easily fooled species like the dunnocks are on the same evolutionary path as the redstarts, but they have a long way to go until they evolve the same levels of suspicion. What’s remarkable is that the dunnocks fakes are so bad and the redstart ones so good, and yet cuckoos are still more successful with the former than the latter.It speaks to just how thoroughly a species’ behavior can be changed by the pressures of natural selection, orit might just be a bit of strategic cooperation on the part of the dunnocks. Biologists have suggested that these birds are willing to tolerate a parasite every so often because they don’t want to risk accidentally getting rid of one of their own eggs.12. This passage can be most likely found in a ________.A. science surveyB. nature magazineC. zoo advertisementD. travel journal13. What does the underlined word “parasite” in paragraph 2 most probably refer to?A. Animals that work together to raise young.B. Small harmful animals such as worms or mice.C. Animals that can adapt to changing environments.D. Animals which live on or inside other host animals.14. Which of the following is TRUE about the dunnock according to the passage?A. It is colour-blind and therefore cannot identify foreign eggs in the nest.B. It can easily remove cuckoo eggs from the nest because fakes are so bad.C. It is a host bird that is more likely to raise a cuckoo chick than the redstart.D. It is unable to evolve and hence accepts cuckoo eggs that appear in the nest.15. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Dunnocks may eventually learn to recognise foreign eggs.B. Redstarts seem to be less suspicious compared to dunnocks.C. Cuckoo birds are good at taking responsibility for their own young.D. It is very easy for cuckoos to imitate the colouring of the dunnock’s egg.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。

NOK 120.BHardware in general,and smartphones in particular,have become a huge environmental and health problem in the Global South's landfill sites(垃圾填埋场).Electronic waste(e-waste) currently takes up 5 percent of all global waste,and it is set to increase rapidly as more of us own more than one smartphone,laptop and power bank They end up in places like Agbogbloshie on theoutskirts of Ghana's capital,Accra. It is the biggest e-waste dump in the world,where 10,000 informal workers walk through tons of abandoned goods as part of an informal recycling process.They risk their health searching for the precious metals that are found in abandoned smartphones.But Agbogbloshie should not exist.The Basel Convention,a 1989 treaty,aims to prevent developed nations from unauthorized dumping of e-waste in less developed countries.The e-waste industry,however,circumventsregulations by exporting e-waste labelled as "secondhand goods' to poor countries like Ghana,knowing full well hat it is heading for a landfill site.A recent report found Agbogbloshie contained some of the most dangerous chemicals.This is not surprising: smartphones contain chemicals like mercury(水银),lead and even arsenic(砷).Reportedly, one egg from a free-range chicken in Agbogbloshie contained a certainchemical which can cause cancer and damage the immune system at a level that's about 220 times greater than a limit set by the European Food Safety Authority(EFSA).Most worryingly,these poisonous chemicals are free topollute the broader soil and water system.This should concern us all, since some ofGhana's top exports are cocoa and nuts.Some governments have started to take responsibility for their consumers' waste.For example,Germanyhas started a project that includes a sustainable recycling system at Agbogbloshie,along with a health clinic for workers.However,governments cannot solve the problem alone, as there is an almost limitless consumer demand for hardware,especially when governments' green policies are focused on issues like climate change.Only the manufacturers can fix this.A more economically sustainable and politically possible solution is through encouraging hardware manufacturers to make the repair, reuse and recycling of hardware profitable,or at least cost-neutral4. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Electronic waste requires more landfill sites acrossGhana.B. Electronic waste is too complex to get fully recycleC. Electronic products need to be improved urgentlyD. Electronic pollution is a burning question in Agbogbloshie5. What does the underlined word "circumvents"in Paragraph 3 mean?A. AbolishesB.

The lack of diversity inGhana's exportsD. The violation of EFSA's standards7. What does the author think is the best solution to the e-waste problem?A. Manufacturers' developing a sustainable hardware economyB. Governments’ adjusting their green policies about e-waste.C. Reducing customers' demands for electronic productsD. Manufacturers’ urging the government to make effective policies to ensure more profit.CWhen I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived atHeathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endlessblue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch theskaters. Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caughta few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”8. What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?A. He felt disappointed.B. He gave up his hobby.C. He liked the weather there.D. He had disagreements with his family.9. What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean?A. Be careful!B. Well done!C. No way!D. Don't worry!10. Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London?A. To join the skateboarding.B. To make new friends.C. To learn more tricks.D. To relive his childhood days11. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A. Children should learn a second language.B. Sport is necessary for children's health.C. Children need a sense of belongingD. Seeing the world is a must for children.DJose Hernandez made his dream of becoming an astronaut a reality and he did so despite unbelievable difficulties“I was workingin a field near Stockton, and I heard on my radio that Franklin Chang-Diaz had been selected for the Astronaut Corps," said Jose, who was a senior in high school at the timed was already interested in science and engineering, Jose remembered, "but that was the moment I said, "I want to fly in space.'

In 2001, Jose joinedtheJohnson Space Center, where he came face-to-face with Franklin Chang-Diaz.“We actually had common experiences —asimilar upbringing, the same language issues. That built up my confidence. Any barriers that existed, he had already overcome them.” Jose smiled. "Now it's my tum!,,“NASA rejected me not once, not twice, not three times but 11 times. It wasn't until the 12th time that I got selected, he said. Jose was selected as part of the 19th class of astronauts in 2004.

On Nov. 10, 1951, an Englishman, Beveagh, was having a discussion with his friends. They couldn’t agree with each other whether the falcon(猎鹰) flew the most quickly among all birds in the world. And they failed to find the answer in any books. He knew that there must be many such problems in the world. Why not publish(出版) a useful book to give the answers to all these problems?In 1954, Beveagh decided to work for it. He asked for help from two friends who owned an information supply center in London. They published the first edition of Guinness Book of World Records in August, 1955. The book had only 197 pages, but it was a great success. It was well received by readers and won the NO.1 best-seller in Britain.The Book of Records has been renewed each year, and has been bought and enjoyed in 141 countries around the world. In the end, it has 262 editions and 35 languages, and the book in itself may be a worldrecord.( )31.In this passage,best-seller means_______________.A.someone who sells books in large numbersB.someone who sells the best books.C.a book that sells in small numbersD.a book that sells in large numbers( )32.

Guinness Book of World Records__________________.A. interests a lot of people all over the world.B. interests famous people in the world.C. has 35 editions and 262 languages.D. is enjoyed by 141 people in Britain.( )35.The passage mainly tells us______________________________.A. how Guinness Book of World Records came out.B. How to publish a bookC. How Sir Beveagh published a bookD. Why Guinness Book of world Records was popular all over the world.(B)When I first heard that Zhang Yimou,China’s leading director most well-known for Hero in the West, a question immediately came into my mind: Would A Simple Noodle Story《三枪拍案惊奇》be directed by the good Zhang Yimou or the bad Zhang Yimou? The answer : neither.Starting with his first time as a cinema-photographer on Yellow Earth right after graduating from film school in the early 80s, everything Zhang shot(拍摄) was inspired. In the late 80s and early 90s, he directed several movies already considered classics, including the banned(禁止) To live。

There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted (引用) all over the world. Famous dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. However, they are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of those present detailed description of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational” which feature crime and gossip (闲谈), to the “serious”, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. But with few exceptions (例外), American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with the attraction of television.Just as American newspapers satisfy all tastes, so do they also try to attract readers of all political parties. A few newspapers support extremist groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers try to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are moderate. Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.As in other countries, American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that it has more than once courageously exposed political scandals (丑闻) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair (水门事件). The Newspapers drew the attention of the public to the horrors of the Vietnam War.41.There are fewer daily newspapers in ________.A. Britain than in the USA.B. France than in BritainC. the USA than in Britain or FranceD. France than in the USA or Britain42.Most American newspapers try hard to entertain their readers because ________.A.they have to keep up a good relation with themB.they have to compete with televisionC.they have to write about crime and gossipD.they have to give factual news in an interesting way43.What does the underlined word “moderate” mean?A. openB. support neither sideC. kindD. support oneselfBFor a long time now, I’ve been fascinated by common phrases and their origins (起源) — and just why we say what we say. I decided to consult the experts, sort through all the research and compile(编写) the answers. Here are a few of the standouts.Q: Why do we “tie the knot(结)” when we get married?A: Knots have been a common metaphor in marriage ceremonies all over the world and throughtime. The expression means “to unite in marriage”. In the Hindu marriage ceremony, the groom ties a ribbon around the bride’s neck. In ancient Rome, the bride wore a belt that was tied in a knot. The groom would then unfasten it on their first night together as husband and wife.Q: Why do we say “many happy returns”?A: The phrase is short of “Many happy returns of the day”, which is to say. “May this day return many times” or “May you have many more birthdays.”Q: How about “It’s not over till the fat lady sings”? Where does that come from?A: This expression is usually phrased as “The opera isn’t over till the fat lady sings.” It got its start as a popular saying when it was used by the San Antonio Expression-News sportswriter Dan Cook in 1976 to indicate that a sporting contest wouldn’t end until time was called.Q: What’s the story of “under the weather” especially when the weather’s just fine?A: There is probably a nautical explanation. In days gone by, when people felt seasick, they were told to go below-decks and find a spot in the middle of the ship where the motion would be less noticeable. In that way, they literally took themselves “under the weather.”44. The phrase “It’s not over till the fat lady sings” was first used in ________.A. sportB. operaC. movieD. music45. According to the passage, which of the following phrases is related to the sea?A. Tie the knotB. Many happy returns of the dayC. It’s not over till the fat lady singsD. Under the weather46. What can we learn from the passage?A.“Tie the knot” has different meanings in different cultures.B.“Many happy returns” is often used when people celebrate birthdays.C.“It’s not over till the fat lady sings” got its start in 1796.D.“Under the weather” means the weather is bad.47. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. tell us some funny storiesB. tell us some origins of some phrasesC. tell us some interesting experiencesD. tell us the history of the languageSay you are a 17th century construction worker who’s worked long and hard to build a splendid tower for the dead wife of your emperor.Now say that the emperor orders your fingertips cut off so you can never build another one. Yes, that is the Taj Mahal, one of the most famous buildings in the world. And the tale behind the construction is just as impressive (印象深刻的) as the building itself.First, there’s the emperor of northern India, Shah Jehan, also called the King of the World. In 1612, Shah Jehan married Momtaz Mahal. Madly in love, they had 14 children over the next 20 years. But then sadness came. As Mumtaz was about to give birth to child number 14, she said she had heard her unborn baby cry out. It was a sign of death. And as Momtaz lay dying, she asked Jehan to build a lasting memorial (纪念物) to celebrate their love.When the heartbroken Jehan appeared eight days after his wife’s death, his people were shocked to see that his coal-black hair had turned snow-white.Putting away his sadness, Jehan ordered his wife’s dying wish carried out. More than 20,000 workers labored nearly 22 years to complete the construction. In 1653, Jehan placed Mo mtaz’s remains in the center under the building.And then, son number five, Aurangzeb, murdered his brothers and took over the power fromhis aging father. Hehan lived the rest of his days ---- eight years, to be exact ---- imprisoned not far from the Taj Mahal. Jehan was only allowed to climb onto the top of his prison to see the timeless treasure from a distance. But never again would he be allowed to visit it ---- until he was buried next to his wife.Today 25,000 people visit the Taj Mahal each day. Though the reason for building the tower was a strange, sad story, those who see its breath-taking beauty are reminded of the happiness that inspired (激发灵感) its construction.48.The first two paragraphs were written to show that ________.A. the Taj Mahal is an unusual historic buildingB. ancient Indian emperors were cruelC. construction workers led a hard life in ancient IndiaD. India has some of the most famous buildings in the world49.We learn from the text that Mumtaz probably died in ________.A. 1626B. 1632C. 1634D. 165350.The underlined word “happiness” in the last sentence refers to ________.A. the married happiness of the emperor and his wifeB. the great pleasure Jehan once found in exercising his powerC. the happiness Jehan felt on completing the Taj MahalD. the pleasure tourists experience when visiting the Taj Mahal杭高2013保送生素质测试英语答卷页请用铅笔把所选答案涂黑答案:1-20 ACBBC BCCDA BCCBB ADBBD21-40 ACACB CBBDD AABAC CADBA41-50 ABBAD BBABA。

Rutgers engineers have invented a cheap and easy way by transforming headphones into sensors that can be plugged into (插入) smartphones, identify their users monitor their heart rates and perform other services.Their invention, called HeadFi, is based on a small plug-in headphone adapter that turns a regular headphone into a sensing device (装置). Unlike smart headphones, regular headphones lack sensors. HeadFi would allow users to avoid having to buy a new pairof smart headphones with sensors to enjoy sensing features.“HeadFi could turn hundreds of millions of existing, regular headphones worldwide into intelligent ones with a simple upgrade (升级),” said Xiaoran Fan, a HeadFi primary inventor.A Rutgers-led paper on the invention, which results in "earable intelligence", will be formally published in October at MobiCom 2021, the top international conference on mobile computing and mobile and wireless networking. Headphones are among the most popular wearable devices worldwide and they continue to become; more intelligent as new functions appear, such as touch-based gesture control, the paper notes. Such functions usually rely on aiding sensors, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and microphones that are availableon many smart headphones.HeadFi turns the two drivers already inside all headphones into a versatile (多功能的) sensor, and it works by connecting headphones to a pairing device, such as a smartphone. It doesn't require adding aiding sensors andavoids changes to headphone hardware or the need to customize headphones, both of which may increase their weight and size. By plugging into HeadFi, a converted headphone can perform sensing tasks and play music at the same time.The engineers conducted experiments with 53 volunteers using 54 pairs of headphones with prices ranging from $2. 99 to $15 ,000. HeadFi can achieve 97. 2 percent to 99. 5 percent accuracy on user identification, 96.8 percent to 99. 2 percent on heart rate monitoring and 97. 7 percent to 99. 3 percent on gesture recognition.12. What does Xiaoran Fan think of HeadFi?A. Secure to operate.B. Simple to use.C. Easy to substitute.D. Convenient to store.13. What can we know about HeadFi according to the text?A. It can't work with headphones alone.B. It actually functions as a versatile sensor.C. It makes headphones larger and heavier than usual.D. It doesn't work when headphones are playing music.14. The figures are listed in the last paragraph mainly to show_________.A. the various functions of HeadFiB. the wide popularity of headphonesC. the great complexity of headphonesD. the excellent performance of HeadFi15. What can be the best title for the text?A. How to Use Headphones AppropriatelyB. Headphones Can Be Upgraded InstantlyC. How to Make Regular Headphones IntelligentD. New Uses Have Been Found in Headphones第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。

One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of cars, driving trucks, building roads or filling cars with gas (汽油). Americans won’t live without cars!Most Americans find it hard to think what life would be without a car. However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. The polluted air is poisonous (有毒的) and dangerous to health.One way to get rid of (排除)the polluted air is to build a new kind of car. That’ s what several of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.Another way is to take the place of the car engine (发动机)by something else. Engineers are now working on some new cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we’ll have to make some changes in the way many of us live. Americans, for example, have to cut down on the number of their cars. They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. Riding a bike is thought to help keep the air clean.But this change does not come easily — a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment (失业).Although cars have brought us a better life, they have also brought us new problems.36. Some large car factories in the USA are trying to build a new kind of car which_______.A. is clean in itselfB. is used to clean streetsC. does not pollute the airD. is easier to make37. If the number of cars is cut down, the most serious problem to American workers is toA. have no work to doB. improve their environmentC. make their factories richerD. go to work by bike38. The writer wants to tell us that_________.A. riding a bike is the only way outB. the number of cars must be cut downC. man won\’t live without ca rsD. cars bring us not only a better life but also serious problems39. Which fact does the passage provide?A. About one sixth of American workers are working in car factories.B. The best way to get rid of air pollution is to change the car engine by something else.C. It isn’t easy to change the way of life in the USA.D. In the USA bikes will surely take the place of cars in the future.40. Which is the best title (标题) for the passage?A. A New Way to Get Rid of Polluted AirB. Cars and Polluted AirC. Many Serious Problems in the USAD.
