咸阳市实验中学2023-2024学年高二下学期第一次月考英语试卷(含答案)

咸阳市实验中学2023-2024学年高二下学期第一次月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The goal of the "Clean & Green" home recycling initiative (倡议) is to assist households in reducing their environmental footprint by providing step-by-step instructions on effective recycling practices.Understanding Recycling TypesPlastics: These include bottles, containers, and other packaging materials. Always clean plastics before recycling to avoid pollution.Paper: Newspapers, magazines, and cardboard are recyclable. However, soiled or wet paper should be discarded as regular waste.Glass: Bottles and jars of all colors can be recycled. Ensure they are free of food waste.Metals: Common recyclables are aluminum cans and tin foil (锡纸) . Remove any food waste before disposal.Steps for Effective Home RecyclingCollection: Use separate bins for each type. Mark containers to avoid confusion.Preparation: As mentioned above, clean the items. This prevents waste and increases the recyclability of the materials.Storage: Avoid overfilling recycling bins. Overpacked bins might lead to improper sorting at recycling facilities.Drop-Off: If your city doesn't offer roadside pickup, locate your nearest recycling drop-off point.Stay Informed: Recycling guidelines can change. Regularly check city websites for "Clean Green" updates.Recycling DOs and DON'TsDO: encourage neighbors and friends to adopt recycling habits; invest in composting (堆肥) if possible; it's another great way to reduce waste;DON'T: mix different types in one bin; recycle dangerous or electronic waste with regular recyclables；Benefits of Recycling：Reduces landfill (垃圾填埋) waste.Conserves natural resources and energy.Prevents pollution by reducing the need for raw materials.Supports public health by minimizing exposure to harmful things.Join the "Clean Green" initiative today and play your part in creating a bright future for the next generations!1．The primary goal of the "Clean Green" initiative is to _____.A.sell recycling binsB.encourage compostingC.update recycling guidelines frequentlyD.reduce households' environmental footprints2．Which of the following materials needs to be cleaned before recycling?A.Paper.B.Metals.C.Plastics.D.Glass.3．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.It's important to stay updated on recycling guidelines.B.Electronic waste can be recycled with regular recyclables.C.You should mix different types in one bin to save space.D.Wet paper is preferred for recycling as it's easier to process.Recent research highlights that the last meal of the day can significantly affect our health. The story is not merely about what we consume, but also about when we do so.The debate about dinner timing finds substantial, scientific support with a Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) study, suggesting that early dinners could have much health benefits. And it defined an early dinner as a meal consumed three to four hours before bedtime, in line with our body's circadian rhythm (生理节奏) .The BWH study discovered clear differences in metabolic (新陈代谢的) profiles of early and late diners. Early diners demonstrated lower blood glucose levels, improved fat-burning capacity, better sleep quality, and higher energy levels. Meanwhile, late dinners led to increased hunger, slower calorie burning, and higher fat storage, posing risks for conditions like diabetes (糖尿病) .The exact timing of dinner isn't a one-size-fits-all choice, as people's routines vary widely. Maya Feller, a nutritionist based in Brooklyn, NY, emphasizes that our schedules—ranging from traditional nine-to-five to round-the-clock—are critical when considering "ideal" meal times. Therefore, finding a dinner time that fits into your schedule is essential.Wendy Bazilian, DrPH, offers insightful tips for those whose routines may not permit an early dinner. She recommends consuming meals or snacks every three to five hours. Thisregular eating pattern can help stabilize blood sugar levels, preventing the feeling of hunger. Furthermore, it's advantageous to leave a gap of two to three hours between your last meal and bedtime. This gap ensures your body has sufficient time for most of the digestion process—letting you get adequate rest and repair during sleep.So it's time to reconsider not just the contents of your plate, but also the clock. After all, leading a healthy lifestyle isn't merely about counting calories but also understanding when and how to fuel our bodies.4．What did the Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) study mainly focus on?A.The recommended daily diet.B.Our body's circadian rhythm.C.The drawbacks of early dinners.D.The importance of dinner timing.5．What may be the result of having an early dinner?A.Enjoying a sound night's sleep.B.Having a strong sense of hunger.C.Storing up more fat in your body.D.Having a higher risk of diabetes.6．What advice does Wendy Bazilian give to the late diners?A.They're supposed to grab some food every 6 hours.B.They should allow for digestion process before bedtime.C.They'd better have access to adequate sleep.D.They are advised to keep their blood sugar level stable.7．What is the purpose of the passage?A.To show the benefits of good dietary habits.B.To share the fact that we are what we eat.C.To tell people the healthiest time to eat dinner.D.To show the importance of eating less in the evening.Stress in teenagers can be reduced by a 30-minute online intervention (干预) aimed at encouraging a growth mindset and seeing the body's reaction to stress as a positive. It interprets physical responses such as a racing heart as potentially performance-enhancing.Mental problems among teenagers are on the rise in the United Kingdom, with rates of probable mental health disorders increasing from one in nine (12%) in 2021 to one in five (20%) in 2023, and there are long waits for access to services in some regions.A study involving more than 4,000 secondary school pupils and university students suggests the new approach could be a low-cost, effective treatment for adolescent stress. "We're trying to change teenagers beliefs and their responses to stressful situations, "said Dr David Yeager, first author of the study. "Actually when you're doing something hard and yourbody starts to feel stressed, that could be a good thing."Yeager and colleagues conducted a series of controlled trials. In one trial, half of 166 students were given the intervention while the rest were not. All the students were then surprised with a request to give a speech about their personal strengths and weaknesses in front of peer evaluators who had been trained to create an unsupportive atmosphere by sighing and frowning. Those who had been given the intervention had lower stress responses, based on heart rate and other physical measures.In another experiment, the intervention was shown to influence academic achievement nine months later, with students 14% more likely to pass classes at the end of the academic year. In the final experiment, teenagers who had received the online intervention reported lower levels of general anxiety several months later.Yeager said the new approach went against the "common principle of self-care" that often appears to view stress as uniquely negative and suggests people "go do yoga or have a camomile tea (甘菊茶) ". "That's a way to take your attention away but it doesn't help you deal with the fundamental cause of stress," he said.8．Why does the author mention the figures in Paragraph 2?A.To provide historical information about the study.B.To present the advantages of the online intervention.C.To explain the necessity of providing the public services.D.To stress the severity of mental problems in UK teenagers.9．What is teenagers' misunderstanding of stress?A.It is something negative.B.It is something positive.C.It has no influence on other people.D.It contributes to their growth10．From the controlled experiments, we know the intervention might ______.A.make teenagers more responsible for themselvesB.do good to teenagers' physical and mental healthC.help students evaluate their strengths and weaknessesD.prove efficient in ridding teenagers of stress immediately11．What does Yeager think of the new approach?A.It casts new light on the cause of stress.B.It changes people's perspective on stress.C.It respects people's opinions about self-care.D.It relieves teenagers' stress more effectively.The term "Hudson River school" was applied to the foremost representatives of nineteenth-century North American landscape painting. Apparently unknown during the golden days of the American landscape movement, which began around 1850s and lasted until the late 1860s, the Hudson River school seems to have emerged in the 1870s as a direct result of the struggle between the old and the new generations of artists, each to assert its own style as the representative American art. The older painters, most of whom were born before 1835, practiced in a mode often self-taught and monopolized by landscape subject matter and were securely established in and fostered by the reigning American art organization, the National Academy of Design.The younger painters returning home from training in Europe worked more with figural subject matter and in a bold and impressionistic technique; their prospects for patronage in their own country were uncertain, and they sought to attract it by attaining academicwhat in previous years had been referred to as the American, native, or, occasionally, New York school—the most representative school of American art in any genre—had by 1890s become firmly established in the minds of critics and public alike as the Hudson River school.The sobriquet was first applied around 1879.While it was not intended as flattering, it was hardly inappropriate. The Academicians at whom it was aimed had worked and socialized in New York, the Hudson's port city, and had painted the river and its shores with varying frequency. Most important, perhaps, was that they had all maintained with a certain fidelity a manner of technique and composition consistent with those of America's first popular landscape artist, Thomas Cole, who built a career painting the Catskill Mountain scenery bordering the Hudson River.A possible implication in the term applied to the group of landscapists was that many of them had, like Cole, lived on or near the banks of the Hudson. Further, the river had long served as the principal route to other sketching grounds favored by the Academicians, particularly the Adirondacks and the mountains of Vermont and New Hampshire different ways.12．According to the passage, what was the function of the National Academy of Design for the painters born before 1835?A.It mediated conflicts between artists.B.It supervised the incorporation of new artistic techniques.C.It supported their growth and development.D.It determined which subjects were appropriate.13．Where did the younger generation of painters receive the artistic training?A.In New Hampshire.B.In the Adirondacks.C.In Vermon.D.In Europe.14．The underlined word "factions" is closest in meaning to "______".A.peopleB.sidesC.citiesD.images15．What is the best title for the text?A.Hudson River SchoolB.The Nature's NationC.Early Painters and Their DrawingsD.North American Landscape Painting二、七选五16．What to do about climate change?With scientists warning that 2024 could be the warmest ever, and destructive wildfires tearing through communities, the climate crisis is no longer a distant threat. ①______ Use energy wisely.Using energy with wisdom is one way to cut your carbon footprint. It's not just about how much energy you use, but when you use it. ②______ When demand is low, or during the brightest part of the day, to use solar can help.③______Aviation (航空) brings a significant challenge in achieving net-zero emissions. Despite accounting for just three percent of global emissions, it is a rapidly growing source and difficult to decarbonize (碳减排) . Reducing air travel is recommended until battery and hydrogen planes become practical. ④______ There is also a recovery of Europe's night trains for low-carbon travel.Grow your own.Whether you have a windowsill or a smallholding, growing your own herbs, flowers or vegetables can be beneficial. Not just to pollinators (传粉昆虫) , which can feed off the plants, but to your mental health. Sure, cultivating a garden isn't going to absorb much carbon.⑤______ And the research suggests it is good for our mental health—particularly amid alarming news about the climate.A.Heat water less.B.No-fly travel companies are making overland travel more attractive.C.Avoid the skies.D.Cultivating a garden to absorb carbon.E.Setting timers for appliances to run through the night.F.But it will help you reconnect with nature.G.Listed below are 3 things you can do to reduce your carbon footprint and save yourself from climate despair.三、完形填空（15空）Painting, the execution of forms and shapes on a surface by means of pigment, has been continuously practiced by humans for some 20,000 years.

I thought of how I might have been a burden to my parents but they have assured me that I was wanted.This journey was not easy for my parents, but throughout they thought of their children first. I was even told that they once ate only apple peers(果皮), leaving the fruit part for the rest of us. My parents' many sacrifices are admirable.Our journey to America was not the last of our struggles. We were also faced with starting a new life in America with nothing. Our first years were hard.

After a few years my dad got a degree in business and a better job, and slowly our living level began to rise.Today we own three cars and two houses, and we live very fortably.

Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to showhis students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式). It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem.Great scientists before us didn’t ge t everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, not wasting a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.28.People go to school to ___________.A.make a livingB. learn a skillB.C. get an education D. learn several subjects29.According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is__________.A.To teach his students everything he knows.B.To teach the students how to study by themselves.C.To teach the students how to make a living.D.To know everything.30.To work out a math problem, you need to know __________.A.how to memorize some facts.B.how to ask for help.C.only a certain formula.D.the method to work it out.31.Why were many scientists successful?A.Because they knew how to learn.B.Because they received good education.C.Because they were very clever.D.Because they learned lots of facts and formula.DOne night in December, a bear came into the city of Vancouver in Canada. It walked through the streets past houses, shops and offices until it found some food in bins outside a restaurant and started eating. In the morning, someone saw the bear and called the police. They came with a vet(兽医) from the city zoo, put the bear in a lorry and took it back to the mountains. Luckily, the bear was safe, but what happens in other countries when big animals e into cities?In Cape Town, South Africa, baboons (狒狒) enter the city when they are hungry. They go into gardens and eat fruit from trees, or into houses and take food from cupboards and fridges. Baboons are strong animals and they can scare people. But the city can be dangerous for baboons too. Sometimes, they are killed in traffic accidents. Human food is very bad for their teeth because it has a lot of sugar. Now, there are baboon monitors(监督员) working in Cape Town to return the animals to the countryside.In Berlin, pigs sometimes e into the city to look for food. They eat flowers and plants from parks and gardens, and cause accidents in the streets. Those who like the pigs give them food and water to drink. Other people do not and want the government and police to stop them.In Moscow there are 35,000 wild dogs. They live in parks, old houses, markets and train stations. Many people give them food and water. Some make small houses for the dogs in their gardens. This helps them in winter, when the temperature is 10℃and there is a lot of snow and ice.In some cities, you can see birds, insects, mice and squirrels every day. But sometimes, it is dangerous when big animals e from the countryside to find food. We need some good ideas to stop animals ing into the city without hurting them.32.Why should we stop animals from entering cities?A.They often kill people in the streets.B. They eat too much food in people's gardensC. They may harm other animals in the city.D. They may cause trouble and endanger people's lives.33. How are baboons treated in Cape Town?A.They are sent to the city zoo.B. They are taken back to the wildC. They are fed with special food.D. They are provided with houses in parks.34. What can we learn from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A. Pigs are always well treated in Berlin.B. Wild dogs cause many problems in Moscow.C. People are friendlier to dogs than they are to pigs.D. Many people take care of wild animals in cities35. What's the article mainly about?A. Problems caused by big animals in cities.B. How to deal with wild animals in cities.C. Living in harmony with wild animals in cities.D. How to keep big animals away from cities.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

However, it is more than a timeless Christmas story. It’s a very Victorian story of urban circumstances: extremes of wealth and poverty, industry and inability. It helped change Victorian society, and that’s why Dickens wrote it.Aside from raising people’s awareness of the plight of the poor in Victorian England, though, Dickens was also in great need of cash to support his large family. “Thinking creatively, he wrote himself out of his predicament,” says historian Catherine Golden.The already well-known writer’s solution worked, to a degree. By the end of the next year, the book had sold more than 15,000 copies. But due to the book’s relatively low price, much of that money didn’t make it back to the author. “What a wonderful thing it is that such a great success should bring me such intolerable anxiety and disappointment!” Dickens wrote.The book did have the cultural impact Dickens was hoping for, though. The writer came from a poor family and is remembered as a friend to the poor throughout his life. In the fall of that year, the author had visited a Samuel Starey’s Field School, which taught poor children. “Dickens easily empathized with children living in poverty, coming, as he did, from a poor childhood himself — a fact that set him apart from many other English authors,” writes Golden.“Even if economics motivated Dickens to write, his story encouraged charity,” writes Golden. “Like Scrooge, a character in his story, Dickens himself was a charitable man. He used his wealth and influence to help those less fortunate.”Dickens may not have gotten rich off of the publication of A Christmas Carol, but he did make the world a little richer.4．Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol _________.A．to make enough money to support his big familyB．to celebrate Christmas with children living in povertyC．to share his poor childhood with other English authorsD．to help change the urban circumstances in Victorian society5．What does the underlined word “plight” probably mean?A．Identification.B．Assumption.C．Dilemma.D．Compromise. 6．How did Dickens actually feel about the sling of the book?A．It was wonderful.B．It was discouraging C．It was satisfying.D．It was unnecessary.7．What is the author’s tone when he talks about Dickens?A．Sharp.B．Admiring.C．Ridiculous.D．Humorous.When Kurt Benirschke, a researcher at the University of California San Diego, started collecting skin samples from rare and endangered animals in 1972, he didn’t have a firm plan on what to do with them. A few years later, he moved his collection to San Diego Zoo, and called it the Frozen Zoo.Benirschke passed away in 2018, but his efforts are very much alive. Today, the Frozen Zoo is the world’s largest animal cryobank (冷库), with samples from over 10,500 individual animals from 1,220 species. It has reached some milestones in the field of genetics (遗传学), starting with the cloning of the first animal — a sheep named Dolly — in 1996.Although cloning isn’t perfect — an Indian ox they cloned only survived for 48 hours, it’s a useful tool to help save endangered species, because it can increase genetic diversity. When the population of a species declines, the remaining animals are forced to reproduce within a closely related group, and thus the genetic pool becomes smaller, which further threatens survival. In a species of animals, the genetic diversity is what gives it flexibility, the ability to bounce back from big natural disasters, virus attacks or disease attacks. That’s because if there are more different types of genetics in a species, there is a higher chance that some will survive.With the current alarming rate of biodiversity loss, all researchers agree that a tighter cooperation between all cryobanks is a necessity. The task is enormous, because there are a million species at risk. “We need 50 different genetic samples from each, so that means 50million samples; for each of those, we need five bottles for each sample, so that’s hundreds of millions of samples that need to be stored,” Ryder says.“If we had a conversation with the future, they would say, please save as much biodiversity as you can, now. Period,” he adds. “And they would say, do that by all means available.”8．Which of the following did Benirschke’s efforts include?A．Collecting endangered animals.B．Rebuilding San Diego Zoo.C．Building an animal cryobank.D．Cloning the first animal Dolly. 9．How does cloning help with animal survival?A．By increasing genetic diversity.B．By boosting animal reproduction.C．By developing genetic technology.D．By fighting against virus attacks. 10．What’s the purpose of Paragraph 4?A．To confirm the importance of the animal cryobanks.B．To explain the supersize of researchers’ future work.C．To reveal the serious impacts of biodiversity loss.D．To raise an assumption to save endangered animals.11．Which is the best title for the text?A．What the Tech of Cloning Can Do for GeneticsB．How Benirschke Dealt with Biodiversity LossC．What a Conversation with the Future SuggestsD．How Frozen Zoos Could Save Dying SpeciesFew items make more of a fashion statement than wearing feathers. In Europe, the trend first came to prominence(引人注目) during the 16th century Renaissance (文艺复兴) period, symbolizing wealth and power. Similarly, nowadays, the feather industry is seen as an expensive decoration for designer items, including handbags and boots.However, the Native American culture falls on the opposite end, viewing feathers as sacred parts of their civilization.Native American is the blanket item for a member of any of the local people of North, Central and South America, many of whom were wiped out by diseases brought over by European colonists. Today, their traditional culture survives to an extent in specific Native American Reserves around the US and Canada, aiming to protect the remaining tribes.Though each tribe has its own culture, feathers are widely seen as a symbol of bravery and are often integrated into the iconic headdress or warbonnet(战冠) designs worm by the most influential and powerful members of a tribe.As a key symbol for a tribe, a warbonnet should reflect a tribe's home. As such, they are usually made up of feathers mainly from the local area, which results in widely differing designs around the US.Of these feathers, an eagle feather is the most highly valued. Within the Native American culture, eagles are regarded for their strength and bravery, meaning anyone who possesses or wears its feathers should also demonstrate these qualities.Despite this spiritual significance, many not associated with the culture continue to wear headdresses with artificial feathers at music festivals and sporting events. Dennis Zotigh, Cultural Specialist, National Museum of the American Indian, said: “This is analogous to casually wearing a purple heart (a US military medal for bravery) that was not earned.”Indeed, the feather is such a meaningful and spiritual part of Native American culture. So maybe the next time we find ourselves buying a shirt with a feather design or colorful feather earrings, we can appreciate the feather's symbolic history.12．Why does the author mention the trend of feathers at the beginning of the text?A．To introduce the origin of the feather industry.B．To contrast the importance of feathers in different cultures.C．To inform readers of the latest fashion trend.D．To discuss the development of the fashion industry.13．What do we know about Native Americans?A．Most of them still live in South America.B．Many of them died from diseases from Europe.C．Headdresses are worn by most members of a tribe.D．Different tribes use the same design for headdresses.14．Why are eagle feathers highly valued by Native Americans?A．Eagles represent wealth and status.B．Eagles remind people of cool fashion.C．Eagles are associated with freedom.D．Eagles stand for strength and courage.15．What's mainly talked about in the passage?A．The development of the feather industry.B．The meaning of feathers in the Native American culture.C．The spiritual significance of feathers in Renaissance.D．The function of feathers in fashion.ChatGPT, launched in November, 2022, has attracted over 100 million monthly users in just two months, which is considered the fastest-growing consumer app. 16 ChatGPT can write emails, computer code, even academic papers and poems. 17 . With various functions, it is suspected to do no good to multiple areas, above all the higher education.So is ChatGPT a benefit or a trouble? 18 . Some universities have banned it due to the warning that it could prompt more students to cheat, especially in exams. By comparison, others regard it as a blessing rather than a curse. Andreas Schleicher, director of education and skills of the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development, for instance, said he welcomes ChatGPT because “it gives people a chance” to concentrate less on tasks that technology can perform equally well.19 , one-third of the educators said they believe ChatGPT should be banned in schools and universities, while the rest supported students having access to it. The attitude of most students sees a distinct difference. They admitted having sought help from ChatGPT to complete their homework.As a result, the observed value and usefulness of ChatGPT seem to outweigh the risks.20 .A．What we should focus on has shifted to better deal with the chatbot and its developmentB．The worry is that ChatGPT could change the basic training structure of higher educationC．According to a survey covering more than 100 educators and over 1, 000 students D．It is undoubtedly a shocking achievementE．It is widely discussed whether and to what extent AI should be involved in a scientific articleF．The answers vary greatly across the worldG．Also, it has succeeded in passing different kinds of exams二、完形填空My mother used to ask me, “What is the most important part of the body?” Through thevery important to us as humans, so I said, “My ears, Mummy.” She said, “No. Many people28．A．stronger B．taller C．smarter D．older 29．A．passed over B．got ill C．passed away D．got wounded 30．A．duty B．turn C．pity D．chance 31．A．shocked B．satisfied C．interested D．excited 32．A．game B．test C．plan D．secret 33．A．worry B．puzzlement C．regret D．pain 34．A．enjoyed B．found C．disliked D．lived 35．A．shoulders B．feet C．hands D．hair 36．A．how B．because C．why D．whether 37．A．respect B．favour C．love D．fun 38．A．by B．on C．above D．for 39．A．valuable B．useful C．selfish D．precious 40．A．sympathetic B．apparent C．miserable D．objective三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

陕西省咸阳市2021-2022高二英语下学期第一次月考试题

202X--2021度第二学期第一次月考高二英语试题班级姓名第I卷选择题（满分80分）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，每小题2分，共40分）第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）AThirty years ago I worked in a company. My job was to sell the cars. I was young and strong and I had been to most parts of the world and I spent one fifth of my time in the trains or planes. I liked such a life and sometimes I called myself “traveler”.But one day I got into trouble. It was a cold morning. It blew heavily and the ground was covered with thick snow outside. I was still in bed though it was nine. I finished a long journey the day before and decided to have a good rest. Suddenly the telephone rang and my manager told me to fly to New York to take part in an important meeting. I had to get up and after a quick breakfast I hurried to the airport. The taxi went slowly and I missed the first flight. I had to take the next one. It meant I would wait for nearly five hours in the waiting-room. But five hours later a passenger said the information showed there was a bomb in our plane and the policemen were looking for it. And another five hours passed and most passengers lost their patience before we were allowed to get on the plane. At the entrance each passenger and their baggage had to be examined. A young man who seemed a soldier shouted at the policemen at the entrance, “If I had a gun in my baggage, I would shoot you two hours ago!”1．The writer called himself “traveler” because he .A．sold cars for his company B．often took trains and carsC．traveled all over the world D．liked traveling in many places2．He didn’t get up until the phone rang because he .A．felt very cold outside B．wanted to have a rest that day C．was going to have a meeting D．was waiting for the manager’s call3．The taxi went slowly because .A．there was much snow on the roadB．it was very cold that morningC．the driver didn’t know he would fly to New YorkD．the manager told him not to hurry4．The young man became angry because he .A．wouldn’t be examinedB．had a gun in his baggageC．waited for a long time at the airportD．hated the policemen at the entrance5. The young man waited for before getting on the plane.A. five hoursB. ten hoursC. fifteen hoursD. twenty hoursBI think machine power is better than human power because we cannot survive without our daily used machines like bikes, coolers, computers, etc.Started on 14-Apr-2008 By SmithE-mail: rksscet12@Johnson 6-May-2008Yes, it’s very clear that machine power is better than man power. But machine power has its limitations (局限). It cannot surviv e without electricity and manhandling. If it doesn’t have these two then it is completely useless. So man shoul d not completely depend on machines. One more point is that because of the use of machines man has become lazy. This laziness has brought in many problems like obesity, arthritis (关节炎) and other health problems. But I am not saying that man should completely turn from ma-chine power to man power. He should have a balance of both. Even I can’t think of life without a car, a computer and a cooler.Sally 9-May-2008Humans only created the machines. So, human power is greater than machine power. To d o the things quickly we created the machines. But machines cannot think. That thinking power beatsmachine power.Tina17-May-2008But without humans there is no value of any machine. If someone wants to use his machine perfectly then one must have expert labor or man power.Tommy19-May-2008Hi to all, my opin ion is that human power is more powerful than machine power, because human beings created the machines. Human brain works more com-pared to machines.Mike20-May-2008I think human power is better than ma-chine power because even if we travel on foot to near places the money will not be wasted and we can get exercise.6.Who agrees with Smith generally?A. Tommy.B. Tina.C. Sally.D. Johnson.7. According to Johnson, man should ______.A. keep a balance between human power and ma-chine powerB. completely depend on machine powerC. turn from machine power to man power completelyD. live a life without a car, a computer or a cooler8. Sally thinks that human power is better than machine power because ______.A. machines are useless without electricityB. machine power can make people become lazyC. machines can’t think like human beingsD. human brain can do things quickly9. Which of the following questions are the speakers talking about in the passage?A. Will machine power defeat human power?B. Which is better, human power or machine power?C. What limitations does machine power have?D. Will machines think in the future?CTracy Caulkins is known as the first American to set an American record and win an AmericanTracy Caulkins was born in Minnesota and lived in Iowa until she was six. She began swimming when she was eight, after the family had moved to Nashville, Tennessee. While unwilling at first to swim in cold water or get her face wet, she began to train in earnest (认真地) as her talent became clear. Though her father worked for the public schools, the family sent her to a private school when the public schools could not accommodate (适应) her training schedule.At age 13, Tracy Caulkins took part in the trials for the 1976 Olympics, but did not make the team. She continued to win national and international titles, and was disappointed in 1980 when the U.S. didn’t attend the Moscow Olympics. She continued to train and compete.In 1981, Tracy Caulkins began college, graduating in 1985. In college, she continued competing and training, though she had slowed down from her peak (顶峰) years.Caulkins trained especially hard for the 1984 Olympics, and not only made the team, but was captain of the swim team, and at Los Angeles, won three gold medals and was named Sportswoman of the Year by the U.S. Olympic Committee. After that she retired from swimming, and was a commentator (解说员) for swimming events as well as taking advantage of her fame to do business.Tracy Caulkins married Australian swimmer, Mark Stockwell, in 1991, their romance having begun at the 1984 Olympics when he jumped into a warm-up pool to introduce himself.

With its shocking green body, red mouth, long tail and noisy screech, the rose-ringed parakeet (长尾小鹦鹉) brought a vivid splash of colour to parks in and around London.However, the parakeets are no longer welcome. The government has suddenly woken up to the fact that there are many more parakeets in and around London making life harder for the local bird population. Government experts put the number of parakeets at around 30,000. They fear that if the number of parakeets keeps rising, these birds will push out local birds like wood-peckers, starlings and nuthatches from trees to build their own nests.Not only that. According to an online report by The Independent, the parakeets will then also get control of most of the food available in the parks — seeds, berries, fruit and nuts. The local bird population will then have a hard time staying alive. An organization called the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) has asked the government to investigate (调查) what kind of a threat the parakeet brings to local birds. If the government decides that these birds are indeed a threat to local birds, steps will be taken to control the number of parakeets.The most surprising thing about the case of the rose-ringed parakeet is that no one quite knows how the parakeets came from India and started breeding (繁殖) in areas around London.14.

It is a place where people from all over the world come to build a better life. Some immigrants bring their families. Some bring a few of their favorite things. Others come alone with nothing but determination. One thing that every immigrant brings with them is their culture.American immigration began in 1607 with the colony of Jamestown. In 1620, another group of people left England to build a settlement in America. They wanted to go to a place where they could practice their religion freely. Then many more people left their homes in Europe to build a better life in America. Many also came to America from Africa. By 1770, more than two million people had moved to America. Later on, more people came to theUnited States than ever before. In cities all over America, you can see different cultures that formed this country. Many things that you may think of as being “American” are actually from a foreign culture. Some of the best examples of this are the foods people eat. Pizza and spaghetti are foods that all Americans know and love. But both of them are from Italy. Baseball is an all-American sport. But the hot dogs that people eat during the game are a type of food that was brought to America by German immigrants.Over time, pizza and hot dogs have become a part of what is considered to be American food. In the same way, different groups of people have come together to define what an American is. An American can be a person of any background. An American can be of any faith. An American can be of any skin color. They can speak English clearly. They can speak English with an accent. Each new immigrant adds something new to American culture. It will keep changing as more people come to this country.4．Why do many foreigners move to America?A．To achieve individual dreams.B．To avoid political punishment.C．To reunite with the beloved ones.D．To improve the life quality. 5．Several foods are mentioned in the text to show ______.A．they have a long history in America B．America is made up of different cultures C．America is a country full of tasty foods D．they are very popular with Americans 6．The author probably agrees that American culture is________.A．diverse B．strange C．simple D．advanced 7．What would be the best title for the text?A．Immigrants and Their American Dreams B．America: a Land of OpportunityC．America: a Melting Pot of Cultures D．Life in the US: Culture ShockThe Nobel Prize is considered as one of the most recognizable and admirable awards possible, honoring people of the world for their outstanding achievements in different fields.Alfred Nobel was born in 1833 to a family of engineers in Stockholm, Sweden. In 1850, he met Ascanio Sobrero, the inventor of nitroglycerin (硝酸甘油) in Paris. Interested in its unpredictable nature of exploding under pressure or heat, Nobel started to find a way to control it and make a usable explosive. After years of efforts, in 1867, Nobel invented dynamite, which is much easier and safer to control than nitroglycerin.During his lifetime, Nobel invented and patented various explosives. He built up hiswealth from his 355 inventions, from which dynamite was the most important.When Alfred’s brother Ludwig died in 1888, a French newspaper mistakenly published Alfred’s obituary (讣告). Reading his own obituary, Nobel was disappointed to find out his public image. The newspaper strongly blamed Nobel for inventing dynamite, giving him the nickname of “the merchant of death” and saying “Dr. Alfred Nobel, who became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before, died yesterday.”To Alfred, this obituary was a warning. He spent his lifetime alone inventing things and was deeply concerned with how he would be remembered. This unfortunate event inspired him to make changes in his will, so as to improve his public image, and to be remembered for a good cause. In 1895, one year before his death, Nobel made the last will, saying clearly that his wealth would be used to create a series of prizes for those who have made great contributions to mankind in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace. To widespread astonishment, Dr. Alfred Nobel gave away 94% of his total wealth to found the five Nobel Prizes.8．What led to Nobel’s invention of dynamite according to Paragraph 2?A．The strong desire to make money.B．His great curiosity and devotion toscience.C．His lifetime dream of achieving success.D．The valuable help from his family. 9．When did Nobel invent dynamite?A．34.B．40.C．42.D．55. 10．What was Alfred Nobel’s attitude towards the newspaper’s obituary?A．Optimistic.B．Satisfied.C．Upset.D．Supportive. 11．Why did Nobel give away most of his wealth to set up the Nobel Foundation?A．To be remembered as “the merchant of death”.B．To prove the importance of his inventions.C．To publish his findings of scientific research.D．To leave a good name to the public.Saving lives has always been an important mission (使命) of science. Now science, and indeed all society, are facing a new dilemma: whether or not to try and save more lives through human cloning.The first cloning experiments in the 1950s involved frogs and toads. It was not until 1997 that scientists successfully cloned the fist mammal, the now world-famous sheep knownas Dolly. Cloning techniques’ have continued to improve since then, and today there are cloned mice, salmon, and cattle.Some scientists want to apply the methods used in cloning animals to produce skin, or organs, and other body parts for humans. One of these methods involves taking adult cells from the brain or blood and growing them into new tissues. Another more complex technique takes embryo (胚胎) cells and develops them into a wide variety of cell types and tissues. It is this planned use of human embryos that has resulted in controversy (争议) and criticism.The cloning of human cells provides the potential to find cures and eliminate diseases. The dream of some researchers is to create a Utopian world of good health. Others question whether it is right to “Play God” in an attempt to cure the disabilities and diseases in this world.Some of the great hopes for cloning include the utility to perform transplants, whenever they are needed, using cloned organs. For example, people with lung cancer may simply have their lungs replaced with healthy ones. Scientists also look forward to the day when people in wheelchairs can walk again, and illnesses such as Alzheinmier’s and Parkinson’s Disease can be prevented.However, a lot of people worry about the appearance of masses of identical people, and the production of “perfect” humans for warfare or slave labor. We might even see headless human bodies being stored at hospitals for their “spare parts”. With such thought-causing possibilities for the 2lst century, human cloning will no doubt continue to receive widespread attention and scrutiny (审视).12．What problem is science faced with?A．Whether human cloning can help save more lives.B．How to carry out human cloning scientifically.C．Whether human cloning should be used for saving lives.D．How to save more lives through human cloning.13．What can we know about cloning according to the text?A．It has a history of over half a century.B．I develops very quickly in the 21st century.C．It can protect people from diseases of any kind.D．It has enabled many people in wheelchairs to walk again.14．The underlined word “eliminate” in paragraph 4 most probably means “________”.A．put up with B．get along withC．make up for D．get rid of15．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Human body parts will be stored at hospitals for use.B．Hunan cloning may become a trend in the 21st century.C．Many people learn the effects of human cloning on our society.D．People think humans will surely be cloned for slave labor.Due to the pandemic, many top US universities have introduced test-optional policiesnon-standardized performance or “soft power” that matters when applying for US universities. Here are some tips to make you more competitive.17Research topics related to your chosen major.
