湖北省鄂东南省级示范高中教育教学改革联盟学校2023-2024学年高二上学期期中联考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解We can feel it in the air. Birds singing in the morning, sun streaming through the windows and flowers appearing all over. It can only mean one thing—spring has come.Our spring favoritesIf you’re planning a spring break to Denmark, take a look at the weather and plan ahead. Typical spring weather in Denmark can be cold, with highs of 5.5℃in March. Rain is common all year round, but don’t let that lower your spirits! Denmark is great to visit in spring and we’ve picked out some of our favourite things to see and do.Cherry blossomNothing says spring quite like the bright pink burst of a cherry blossom. Denmark is a great place to see it! One of our top spots is Bispebjerg Kirkegård in Copenhagen. Here, tree-lined streets are completely transformed by pink cherry blossom branches. Elsewhere in Copenhagen there is Langelinie Park which has a Sakura Festival every year, and the Botanical Gardens in the heart of the city. Outside Copenhagen, Fredens Torv in Aarhus is another blossom hot-spot.Get outside and hunt for giantsIf you’re planning a trip to our capital, why not rent a car and make a day of hunting for our mountainous friends? Six wooden giants made from recycled materials by artist Thomas Dambo can be found hiding around the suburbs of Copenhagen. A perfect trip for kids with a healthy sense of adventure.It’s theme park time!Tivoli Gardens will reopen its doors on the 8th of April. With the days growing longer, you get more time to relax in the peaceful gardens, or on hair-raising rides.Just 10 kilometers north of Copenhagen is Bakken, the world’s oldest amusement park! Here you can experience 32 rides for all ages, including a wooden roller-coaster dating back to 1932. The fairytale woods that surround the deer park are also worth a visit.1．What should you do if you plan a spring break to Denmark?A．Lower your spirits.B．Watch out for wild animals.C．Pick out your favorite clothes.D．Pay attention to the local weather. 2．How many spots are suitable to see cherry blossom?A．One.B．Two.C．Three.D．Four. 3．What can you do in the theme park?A．You can raise animals.B．You can experience thrilling rides.C．You can spend a day hunting for mountainous friends.D．You can relax in the garden surrounded with cherry blossom.In the fall of 2012, Ken Liu received an offer from a Chinese company, which was seeking an English translator for a sci-fi novel titled The Three-Body Problem.Ken was a natural choice: familiar with both the Chinese and English sci-fi wording and culture. But The Three-Body Problem was unlike anything Ken had ever read. A mind-bending story was full of heady technical passages about physics theory, mixed with profound moral questions and humanity’s place in the universe. So capturing the novel in all its complexity seemed discouraging.When the English translation of The Three-Body Problem was published, it was described as a groundbreaking work of speculative fiction (推理小说). Liu Cixin, the author of the original work said, “Usually when Chinese literature gets translated into a foreign language, it tends to lose something. But I don’t think that happened to The Three-Body Problem. I think it gained something.”Ken was born in Lanzhou, Gansu province. He was a bookworm. Books provided him with a refuge when he moved to Calif, and couldn’t speak English at the age of 11. After graduation from Harvard, he was a computer programmer, then a corporate lawyer, and later a sci-fi writer. Throughout his shifting professional journey, Ken wrote fiction continuously. Eventually, one of his works won three big awards.Ken never set out to be a translator, but a Chinese writer discovered Ken. Chen Qiufan liked reading Ken’s short stories online and kept in touch with Ken. One day, he asked Ken for his opinion on an English translation of one of his stories, which was from a translation company. Ken wasn’t impressed and offered to edit it, but ended up redoing the translation from scratch. Chen was completely moved by Ken’s spirit.Ken’s approach to translation is unorthodox (非正统的). Strict loyalty to the sourcematerial is not his chief goal, nor is producing a smooth, Americanized version. “It’s not a word-by-word recreation,” he said. “It’s about how I show the overall effect.” Rather than ignoring cultural and spoken differences that would be lost on most Western readers, he tries to stress them.4．Ken’s task of translating The Three-Body Problem is ______.A．demanding B．well-paid C．urgent D．eye-catching 5．What does Ken’s writing experience tell us?A．All life is an experiment.B．Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.C．Persistence will be eventually rewarded.D．Unintentional actions bring unexpected surprises.6．What impressed Chen Qiufan most about Ken?A．Ken wrote many short novels online.B．Ken gave his opinions on Chen’s novels.C．Ken took his work seriously and pursued perfection.D．Ken aimed to be a translator after graduation from Harvard.7．What is Ken’s translation style like?A．It follows every word exactly.B．It highlights cultural differences.C．It is influenced by American culture.D．It focuses on the fluency of language.Tamara Hinson examines why space exploration developments shouldn’t just be of interest to astronauts—they’re helping to change our holidays, too.In early May 2019 Blue Origin, the space exploration company founded by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, successfully launched and landed the rocket Bezos plans to use for space tourism. In recent years, international space agencies and private space exploration companies have made huge leaps forward in their efforts to explore beyond planet Earth. This isn’t just good news for those of us with a burning desire to visit the Moon, see our planet from space or set up camp on Mars, and if you extremely like travelling, you’ll highly likely eventually benefit from developments relating to space exploration. By travelling in a spaceship sent into orbit, an eight-hour flight in a narrow airplane could become a 30-minute hop, while the entire planet could be circumnavigated in just 90 minutes.Recent developments suggest such journeys might soon become reality, largely thanks tothe number of privately-funded space exploration adventures, like Musk’s SpaceX.“It’s not just about national space agencies any more and commercial companies all over the world are doing their own thing,” points out Bresnik, who admits to being surprised at the developments made in a relatively short space of time. “In the 1900s we had the first flight, and suddenly all these other people were building airplanes. And now, just over 100 years later, there are generations who think it’s perfectly normal to simply book a flight on their iPhone. And we’re at the same point with space flight; you’ll soon be able to go to space without being a professional astronaut.”All of these developments and the research and testing which comes before hand serve another purpose. They make getting to Mars— the little red dot our descendants (后代) could very well end up living on much easier, although there are still various obstacles. Bresnik states that he suspects a trip into space will soon be as simple as a trip to Disneyland even if the famous theme park has certain advantages, such as more reliable supplies of food, water, and oxygen, believing we’re close to overcoming all obstacles and pointing out that one potential solution would be to take seeds instead of food, and use regenerative techniques to reclaim water.8．What can we learn from Paragraph 2 and 3?A．Bezos plans to use the rocket for space exploration.B．Space tourism lovers have set up camp on the Mars.C．Travelling by spaceship might largely shorten the travelling time.D．Musk’s SpaceX alone makes such space journeys become a reality.9．Why is Bresnik surprised?A．Space exploration has made rapid progress.B．A trip into space will cost as much as an iPhone.C．People can go to space without being trained nowadays.D．Many commercial companies play a role in space tourism.10．Which statement may Bresnik agree with?A．A trip into space is as simple as a trip to Disneyland.B．Growing crops might solve food problems in space.C．Space tourism can provide reliable food, water and oxygen.D．Living on the Mars is difficult for our descendants in the future.11．Which of the following can be the best title?A．Let’s Go to Mars for a Holiday!B．Are You Ready for Space Tourism?C．Space Exploration Develops Rapidly.D．Private Companies Contributes to Space Tourism.A “superhero” moss can significantly reduce the risk and severity of flooding for communities living in downstream areas, researchers have found. Scientists from the conservation group Moors for the Future Partnership who conducted a six-year study into sphagnum moss (泥炭藓) found that planting it in upland areas could dramatically slow the rate at which water runs off the hillsides, preventing river catchments (集水处) being overwhelmed with water downstream.The research found that the sphagnum moss reduced peak streamflow — the maximum amount of water that enters a river after a storm — by 65%. The moss was also found to increase lag time — the time taken between rainfall and the rainwater entering the river system — by 680%.More than 50,000 individual sphagnum plants–which are about the size of a 5 0p coin — were planted on Kinder Scout, the highest point in the Peak District national park, as part of an “outdoor laboratory” for researchers to observe.Before the moss was planted on Kinder, the hill surface consisted of bare peat, which meant that after a storm rainwater would wash straight off, leaving communities in downstream valleys more vulnerable to flooding.The planting of sphagnum moss could therefore bring important ecological benefits. The plant is capable of absorbing up to 20 times its own weight in water, which means that more rainwater can be held upstream and enter a river catchment more gradually to prevent it from being overwhelmed. Sphagnum moss can also help protect the layers of peat underneath it, and can accumulate over time to create new layers of peat which are essential to carbon storage.Tom Spencer, a research and monitoring officer for the Moors for the Future Partnership hailed the dramatic effects the moss has had on the river catchment. He said sphagnum planting could be “a powerful tool in minimising the risk and severity of flooding”, which would have “far-reaching benefits for communities downstream”.12．What can be inferred from paragraph 1?A．River catchments need to be expanded.B．Sphagnum moss can ease the impact of flood.C．More trees should be planted to prevent flood.D．Upland areas are not safe to live in during flood.13．What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A．Impressive functions of sphagnum moss.B．Serious problems caused by rainwater.C．Suggested ways to plant sphagnum moss.D．Future possibilities of sphagnum moss.14．What does the underlined word “hailed” in the last paragraph probably mean?A．spoke highly of B．lost sight of C．paid attention to D．made remarks on15．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To explain the real causes of flood.B．To share a way of planting sphagnum moss.C．To stress the flood risks of some communities.D．To introduce the ecological benefits of a plant.二、七选五The question “Who am I?” can bring on a series of thoughts, emotions, and feelings, butis more common than you may think, and we’re here to help you find all the answers you’re looking for.Be honest with yourself to learn about all aspects of your personality.Knowing yourself means recognizing different parts of your identity, personality, and being. The goal is not to criticize yourself but to acknowledge all sides of your personality. Open up to the possibility of learning new things about yourself. Pay attention to the things that make you feel uncomfortable. These emotional signals can tell you if you’re trying to avoid something. 17 ? If so, how can you overcome it? For example, if you don’t like to look in the mirror, ask yourself why.18 .Thinking over difficult personal questions and analyzing your answer can help you learnmore about your interests, fears, and aspirations. Use what you learn from this activity to spend more time doing what you love and overcoming your fears. See how you respond to these questions: What do I love doing? What are my dreams? What do I want my legacy to be?19 ?Incorporate mindfulness into your day to live in the present moment.Mindfulness is the act of experiencing the present moment to help you understand your thoughts, actions, and motives. 20 . Practicing mindfulness can help you push aside distractions and check in with yourself even in the most hectic of times. Check out these ways you can be more mindful: Pause and observe the world around you. Avoid eating meals at your computer or TV and focus on how the food tastes and feels in your mouth. Take a walk and notice how the ground feels beneath your feet, where the sun is in the sky, and if birds are chirping.A．What is my biggest criticism of myselfB．Are these emotions positive or negativeC．Are you insecure about that characteristicD．Getting to know yourself is a life-long journeyE．Question your hobbies to discover how you view yourselfF．Ask thoughtful questions about yourself and answer honestlyG．It’s a state of attention to yourself and the world you’re experiencing三、完形填空In 2022, just before my 32th birthday was approaching, the Singapore-based sister insisted my mother and I join her for a holiday.

Will instant coffee be OK? M: It’s not my favorite drink. Do you have tea?W: We have hot chocolate. Oh, wait a minute. I’ve found the proper coffee. Text 2M: I’m going to visit the bank. Do you need cash?W: No, but can you drop off this box at the post office and pick up something to eat? M: I’ll get rid of the mail and pick up lunch on m y way back. Text 3M: What are you doing? You can’t park there. That is for disabled people.W: Oh, I didn’t even see that. All right, all right, I’ll go find somewhere else to park. Text 4W: My favorite animal is the dolphin. They make such funny sounds, and they are very smart.M: Dolphins are cool, but sharks are way better. They are so fast in the water and they can grow to be some of the biggest fish in the world. Text 5M: Hi, I’ve just checked in. Is food still being served?W: I’m sorry sir, the re staurant is just closing. It is open from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. However, room service is available until 11:00 p.m., so you have an hour to order. Text 6W: Good morning. I’m afraid we don’t have your favorite today.

Text 10M: Frank Whittle was a British Royal Air Force air officer who invented the jet engine. He was born in a humble house in Coventry, England, on June 1st, 1907. His father was a clever engineer who passed onhis skills to his son. Whittle became adventurous, developing an early interest in planes. He joined the Air Force and was taught about aircraft engines, gaining experience in the engineering workshops. He was excellent in his studies and became a pilot. During study time, he had the ideas that led to the creation of the jet engine, and he was given the legal right of ownership of his design in 1930. His studies earned him a place on a further course at Cambridge University, where he graduated with a first-class degree. His first engine was tested in 1937. Official interest grew but it was many years before it came into use. Whittle’s invention was of great importance. It increased the speed of planes dramatically and jet engines are now used by nearly every airline in the world. Whittle held many important jobs and became a hero in his country. He later married an American woman and moved to the United States, where he became a professor. He died at his home in Maryland on August 9th, 1996.第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分 35 分）第一节21-25 CBDBA 26-30 CACDB第二节31-35 GBEDF第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分 45 分）第一节36-40 CCABD 41-45 BDACA 46-50 DACBB 51-55 CABDD第二节56. an 57. personally 58. has become 59.

I’m writing to tell you how our schooling is now going on. Actually, we are having e-learning at home, studying almost all the academic subjects. The schedule runs from 8:00 a.m. till 4:30 p.m. on workday, with longer breaks than usual. Personally, I’ve got used to online learning, which I think is a creative form of schooling, and also an effective measure to fight the COVID-19 epidemic. However, I really miss the days with my friends and teachers on campus. I pray the epidemic will soon come to an end.Best wishes, Paragraph 2：When Jessie arrived at her home, her mother was waiting for her. She anxiously asked Jessie what had happened. Jessie explained in a low voice, “We made a terrible mistake and got trapped in a trough on the highway.

Suddenly, a good idea occurred to Jessie. She took off her jacket, burned it, and threw it out of the car window.

2020-2021学年湖北省鄂东南教育联盟高二(下)期中英语试卷(附答案详解)
2020-2021学年湖北省鄂东南教育联盟高二（下）期中英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共37.5分）AThere are many options for free video conferencing apps.Here's our short list of the best ones,where they shine and where they fall short.Google HangoutsThe free video chat app from Google is a great example of a consumer-grade app.It integrates with Gmail and Google Calendar,making it easier for users to operate.Up to10 participants can join the live conference with a plug-in application.And as it doesn't support dual stream video and content,some users complain that the video is not clear or reliable.SkypeThe app,developed by Microsoft,gives10 users access to a conference.It's worth noting that Microsoft is integrated with Skype.A plug-in application is required.Advanced features are fascinating,but only available for paid subscription.ZoomThe free video conferencing solution from Zoom provides a service for group video calls with over 100 participants.The Zoom Basic plan allows users to have 40-minute calls with a handful of features like screen sharing,local recording and camera filters.A plug-in application is necessary.All calls,which are limited to 40 minutes or less,are secured. LifesizeLifesize has been in the video conferencing industry for long.By setting up a free account with Lifesize,you can quickly start a free video call with up to 25 participants.It is web-based and doesn't require downloads or an application on your devices.Guests can join the live call right from the website by clicking on your personal meeting ID link.To use the additional features like 300-way calling,Microsoft integrations and 4 K video conference room systems requires a paid subscription.1.Which aspect of Google Hangouts is not satisfactory______A. User capacity.B. Video quality.C. Stream video.D. Technical support.2.Which app offers a ten-minute conference service with 30 people for free______A. Zoom.B. Skype.C. Google Hangouts.D. Lifesize.3.What is special about Lifesize？______A. It integrates with Microsoft.B. It is completely free of charge.C. No application is needed for participants.D. There is no time limit to its conferences.BDear Editors of Macquarie Dictionary,My name is Wendy,a second generation Chinese-Australian migrant and a mother of two young children.I'm writing to express my disappointment in one of Macquarie Dictionary's entries,namely the definition of the word "monolid".In both the paper version（7th edition）and online version of the Dictionary,Macquarie defines "monolid" as："An upper eyelid without a fold,perceived by some in Asia to give an appearance of laziness. " This definition has disturbed me and many Asians living in Australia.Linguistically,the term "monolid" is a pretty description of a physical characteristic that involves no feelings,common to over 50% of people of East Asian origin.It's no different to other terms describing a physical feature including "blonde" or "freckle".Take a minute and consider this.Would it be appropriate if the definition of "blonde" became "having fair or light-colored hair,thought by some in Western countries as possessing little or no intelligence"？Or would it be appropriate if the definition of "freckle" was "a small brownish spot in the skin or face,thought by some as creating an ugly appearance"In addition,it is also inappropriate that Macquarie Dictionary - a dictionary of choice by many Australian schools - defines a term in a way which may create negative racial connection for Australian children of East Asian origin.Both my kids are born with monolids,a constant reminder of their cultural background.It therefore breaks my heart to imagine a scene where they turn to the dictionary to find that their physical feature is associated with "laziness".What if they get teased by their school friends that they are born "lazy"What if my sensitive older son starts hating himself and his race classification for being associated with something negative？For the reasons above,I urge Macquarie Dictionary to adjust the current definition of "monolid". Looking forward to hearing from you.Regards,Wendy4.The author's purpose of writing this letter is ______ .A. to ask for an apology about the wrong doing to the people with monolidsB. to offer advice on how to define a wordC. to express dissatisfaction with a definitionD. to give examples of defining physical features5.What does underlined word "unbiased" in paragraph 2 probably mean？______A. Precise.B. Public.C. Subjective.D. Objective.6.What is the function of paragraph 3______A. Supporting the author's position.B. Raising the author's concern.C. Attacking the dictionary.D. Introducing two words in the dictionary.7.In what way is the author worried about her children______A. They might get into bad habits and be lazy.B. They might become victims of the definition.C. They might have monolids.D. They might choose to use the dictionary.CThe lights go down,music plays,and a young woman on a bike at the front of the class encourages students to spin faster and harder.When the lights go back on,the students on the bikes pull out their notebooks,and it's clear that this is not SoulCycle.Instead,it's afirst-of-its-kind business school course at Fordham University that is taught on spin bikes in a university."It's the first class that I mention to anybody when anybody asks me what classes I'm taking," said Amanda Vopat,22，a business administration major. "I think people are really excited about it."The 75-minute,twice-weekly course is the brainchild of Julita Haber,a business school professor at Fordham. "I have been introducing movement and fitness in my classes for the past seven years," she said. "I found the spin class would really allow students to exercise while a professor lectures at the same time."The course the students are taking while cycling is no joke.Managing Professional Relationships is an upper-level business school course taken primarily by juniors and seniors.The students are fully instrumental in each class,selecting the music,leading stretches before and after class and leading the intervals during the class.Haber stops her lecture every 20 minutes throughout the class.While one student turns off the lights,another student turns up the music and a third student goes to a bike in the front of the class to lead their classmates in high-intensity interval that lasts two to three minutes,just enough to re-energize the students."It's a fantastic way of engaging students and as a professor,as a teacher,that's really gratifying," she said. "They don't have their smartphones,and they don't have laptops so they are physically engaged and also mentally engaged in what is being said."The course is the first of its kind at Fordham,and Haber believes it is also a first across the United States.She has authored research on the unique classroom approach,which she calls fitness integrated（综合的）learning.Donna Rapaccioli,the head of Fordham's Gabelli School of Business,described how students were "energized" by the class and said Fordham was open to expanding it to other courses."Definitely," Rapaccioli answered when asked if Haber's course represents the future of learning.8.What might SoulCycle be______A. A health club.B. A repair shop.C. A bicycle store.D. A music studio.9.What do we know about the business school course______A. It lasts seventy-five minutes without breaks.B. It was originally thought up by Julita.C. It was taught in a university gym once every 2 weeks.D. It is open to all students at Fordham University.10.Which of the following is correct according the passage？______A. Haber has introduced the spin class seven years before.B. Students pull out their notebooks while riding the spin bikes.C. Haber is satisfied with her course.D. The course has become popular in the US.11.How did Donna Rapaccioli sound？______A. Humorous and clever.B. Hopeful and cheerful.C. Serious and friendly.D. Proud and confident.DImagine how you'd feel if you had to get more than 9，000 tons of junk out to the sidewalk.That's how much trash is floating around in space.In fact,there's about 4 million pounds flying over our heads in low-Earth orbit.Daan,a Dutch artist,and his team at Space Waste Lab have come up with a creative plan that could clear up space junk in a spectacular fashion.① But all the satellites eventually become obsolete within just a few decades.When they die out,there's the problem of them drifting in outer space,collecting in what scientists call the "graveyard orbit."Maybe you're thinking, "Why should I care about garbage 12，500 miles above me？" Well,all that fun stuff that satellites help beam down to us-mobile games,Instagram,cat videos-could be shut down by space waste.Lots of old junk floating around up there,plus new satellites added each year,means more and more high-speed collisions.And when chunks of junk crash into one another,they break apart into millions of pieces,quickly building up speed and turning into fast-moving objects,which are dangerous to operational satellites as well as astronauts working on the International Space Station.② .Think about that for a minute.When the last satellites finally become disused,GPS，cell phones,and the Internet will no longer function.③，）Here's the best part-while reentering Earth's atmosphere,the pieces of junk would burn up all at once,creating a light show similar to hundreds of shooting stars falling in the nightsky.A spectacle indeed!To get ready for such an amazing effort,Space Waste Lab has been traveling to major cities across Europe and enlightening the public on the problem of the junk in space. In October 2018，his team launched Space Waste Lab Performance,an outdoor art exhibition that shows the location of each piece of space trash using large lasers that make each debris look a bit like a star wandering slowly and silently over the sky,allowing viewers to wave and say, "Hallo,space trash!"12.Where can you probably read this passage？______A. in a science magazineB. in a geography textbookC. in a fashion magazineD. in a space travel guidebook13.According to the passage,which sentence best replaces the question mark in the diagram？______A. There is more junk floating in space each year as new satellites are added.B. Satellites can help people track the weather and find new locations.C. Working satellites can be damaged and astronauts can be hurt.D. The Space Waste Lab Performance can show people where satellites are located.14.Which of the following best supports the idea that space waste should be dealt with verysoon______A. Sentence ①B. Sentence ②C. Sentence ③D. Sentence ④15.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage？______A. Space Junk Harms Digital SystemsB. Test of Waste Collection NetsC. A New Glimpse into Outer SpaceD. Artists' Proposal to Save Space二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）One form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. (1) Isn't it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned upon by their children and grandchildrenNowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society.Moreover,better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. (2) Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal computers were first introduced,most older people didn't believe they wouldever familiarize themselves with it.Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. (3) Kate Stevens,aged 72，says,"I find playing such games very relaxing.It's not very demanding,but you still need to concentrate."(4) There's a greater variety of games to choose from,including more intellectual and complex strategy and simulation（模拟）games.Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these.Train Simulator is based on real-world activities.Players can choose from a variety of challengers,such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that "grey gamers" simply don't have the skills required for computer games,and that teenagers are better. (5) Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice,which means that the "grey gamers" may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them.In games where speed is the main consideration,older people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction time.On the other hand,"grey gamers" have a preference for slower paced,mind challenging games.A.This is where I don't agreeB.This couldn't be further from the truth.C.Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games.D.Mental activity,as well as physical exercise,can contribute to better health.E.This prejudice is based on the following research conducted by some psychologists in Chicago University.F.Activities like playing computer games,going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters.G.Another development that has favored "grey gamers" is a change in the type of videogames available on the market.16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G.

"Lazy economy" may lead to young people becoming less sociable7.What is the author's attitude towards the "lazy economy"？______A. Doubtful．B. Unknown．C. Indifferent．D. Supportive．CIn October，I told the eight--year--olds in the religion class about my plan．"I'd like all of you to do extra jobs to earn some money，then we'll buy food for a Thanksgiving dinner for someone who might not have a nice dinner otherwise．" I wanted the children to fmd out the acts of kindness that can change someone's life．Early in Thanksgiving week，the boys and girls arrived in class holding their hard-earned money．And now they couldn't wait to go shopping．At last we headed toward the checkout，pushing a cart filled with turkey and other food．"Flowers!" Kristine cried．The group hurtled toward the holiday plantsI made a pitch for practicality．I pronounced，"You can't eat flowers．" "But Mrs．Sherlock，" Kristine said，"we want flowers．"Defeated，I looked at the array before us．In the middle of the display was a pot of preposterouslypurple mums．"She'll like this one，" the children agreed，and plopped the purple plant into the cart．An agency had given us the name and address of a needy grandmother who had lived alone for many years．On the way there，the atmosphere in the car was not spiritual．"You're squishing （压扁）me!" one voice announced．"I think I'm scared of strangers，" said another．Between the squirming and giggling and punching，and those purple mums，I wasn't sure that any lesson about giving and receiving was getting through．We finally pulled up in front of a small bungalow tucked in the woods．An old woman with a wearyface came to the door to welcome us．As each box was canied in，the old woman oohed and aahed- much to her visitors'pleasure．When Amy put the mums on the counter，the woman seemed surprised．She's wishing it was a bag of flour，I thought．We returned to the car．The woman inside waved goodbye，then turned and walked across the room，past the turkey，past the trimmings，straight to the chrysanthemums．She put her face in their petals （花瓣）．When she raised her head，there was a smile on her lips．She was transfonned before our eyes．The children were quiet．In that one brief moment，they had seen for themselves the power they possessed to make another's life better．And I had seen something too．This wonder had been shaped not by adult practicality but by youthful enthusiasm．The children had made it clear that sometimes a person needs a pot of funny purple flowers on a dark November day too．8.Why did the author refuse to buy the flowers？______A. Because the author thought the flowers were impractical．B. Because the author thought the children were making trouble．C. Because the author thought the flowers were costly．D.

The children were enthusiastic about this giving and receiving lesson．C. A pot of funny purple flowers brought as much happiness as food to someone in need．D. The children possessed some power to make another's life better．11.Which of the following would be the best title for the text？______A. An Amazing Visiting．B. An Old Woman In the woods．C. A Special Thanksgiving DinnerD. A Desirable Gift．DYou have just won five million yuan in a lottery （彩票）-- how would you spend it？Will you be so happy about your sweet plan as to forget what you are doing at the moment？What if your dentist is having that lottery daydream while removing your rotten tooth？We spend up to 50% of our waking time letting our minds wander．Since an estimated 30%-50% of our waking time is spent daydreaming，isn't this worrying？Is this just wasted time or does it perform a useful function？The mind is elsewhere! A new research has shown that those whose minds wander have higher intellectual ability．Some studies suggest daydreaming makes us unhappy because we are not focusing on what is aroundus but are instead thinking about the past or future．A paper in Science concluded that the "wandering mind is an unhappy mind" because you fmd happiness by living in the moment．However，a recent study published in the journal Neuropsychologica fmds that mind-wandering can be of benefit to us．The researchers measured the brain patternsof more than 100 people while they lay in an MRI scanner （核磁共振成像仪），focusing on a dull point for five minutes．This data was compared to tests on creative ability and a questionaire on how much their minds usually wandered．Those who said their minds wandered the most scored higher on intellectllal and creative ability tests and had more efficient brain systems measured in the MRI machine．An example of being efficient at mind-wandering is if you can zone in and out of conversations or tasks and then naturally tune back in without missing any important point or step．Christine Godwin，the lead author of the latest study from the Georgia Institute of Technology ，says that if you are focusing on some difficult tasks，your perfonnance will drop if your mind wonders．" But when tasks are easy，people who have high cognitive ability can let their minds wonder because it does not affect their performance．You may be thinking about upcoming goals or problem-solving．These are some of the positive sides tomind-wandering．"Mind-wandering can vary betweenmore practical or more emotional．What mind-wandering seems to be best at，researchers say，is coming up with new solutions to old problems．So it's not always a waste of time．12.What is the function of the frrst paragraph？______A. To arouse the readers' interest in the article．B. To raise the questions．C. To introduce the background．D. To make some comment．13.According to the study published in Neuropsychologica，which of the following is true？______A. Daydreaming makes us unhappy because we are thinking about the future．B.
