I walked along the sidewalk that borders the west side of Central Park this morning, wondering at its shape: Hexagonal(六边形的) paving stones underneath my feet were bordered by brickwork, with a tidy stone wall running alongside. Just past the wall lay the park itself, where delicate branches of leafless trees reached to the blue sky, and sparrows emerged from trees.The contrast between the straight-lined, orderly, man-made sidewalk and the complex diversity of nature just beyond its border made me think about the differences between natural creation and man’s creation.The world holds many examples of circles: the moon, grapes, drops of water and the center of flowers. Triangles(三角形) are readily evident, too. There are kitty cat noses and ears, mountain peaks and river deltas.But what about the most common shape in the man-made world, the rectangle(矩形)? I searched my brain for natural equals. Though I thought and thought, I came up with only two: teeth and salt crystals. That surprised me. Do we prefer rectangles simply because it’s easier to plan and build with blocks and straight lines? Or does it have something to do with the idea that humans tend to assume life is supposed to be linear? I don’t kno w.There are bent lines everywhere. As I look at the beauty of, a tree in winter, with its branches reaching skyward in a seemingly untidy but obviously planned pattern, I can apprehend something of what that means.Our world isn’t always tidy and predictable in the way that I want it to be. There are twists and turns in my life that I can’t foresee or predict. That doesn’t mean branching off in unexpected directions is bad or wrong. It means that when I find myself in each new place, I need to continue growing and reaching upward.1. How did the author feel about the sidewalk’s shape?A.disappointed. B.surprised. C.worried. D.pleased.2. What is the author’ s attitude to the various shapes mentioned in the text?A.negative. B.cautious. C.unconcerned. D.objective.3. Which can explain the underlined word “apprehend” in paragraph 5?A.create. B.imagine. C.understand. D.arrange.4. What may the author agree with?A.People should live in a complex world.B.Triangles are the most common in nature.C.Natural creation and man’s creation should be balanced.D.We should move forward in the face of uncertainties.3. I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team. She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m. to swim for 3 hours before going to school. She did not party with her friends on Saturday night. She had to study and keep her grades up, just like everyone else.When I asked her what compelled her with such super-human ambition and sacrifice (牺牲). She simply said, “I do it for myself and the people I love. It’s love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices.”A reason or a purpose is a combination of “wants” and “don’t wants”. When people ask me what my reason for wanting to be rich is, it is a combination of deep em otional “wants” and “don’t wants”.I will list a few. First the “don’t wants”, for they create the “wants”. I don’t want to work all my life.I don’t want what my parents aspired for, which was job security and a big house. I don’t like being an employee. I hated it that my dad always missed my football games because he was so busy working on his career. I hated it when my dad worked hard all his life and the government took most of what he worked for at his death.Now the “wants”. I want to be free to tra vel the world and live in the lifestyle I love. I want to be young when I do this. I want control over my time and my life. I want money to work for me. Those are my deep-seated, emotional reasons. What are yours? If they are not strong enough, the reality of the road ahead may be greater than your reasons. I have lost money and been set back many times, but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward. I wanted to be free by age 40, but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.I wish I could say it was easy. It wasn’t, but it wasn’t hard either. But without a strong reason or purpose anything in life is hard.1. The passage is started by __________.A.giving an example B.explaining the causesC.pointing out similarities D.describing the differences2. The underlined word “compelled” in Para. 2 probably means __________.A.committed B.inspired C.forced D.combined3. We know from the passage that _________.A.the “wants” lead to the “don’t wants”B.the “wants” come from the “don’t wants”C.the “don’t wants” have little to do with the “wants”D.the “don’t wants” are more important than the “wants”4. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Para. 6?A.The reality is greater than the deep emotional reasons.B.With stronger emotional reasons, life must be much easier.C.With deeper emotional reasons, the road ahead is likely to be harder.D.In reality, we may meet many more obstacles without deeper emotional reasons.4. Climate change disproportionately affects the world’s most vulnerable people, particularly poor rural communities that depend on the land for their livelihoods and coastal populations throughout the tropics. We have already seen a chain of tough suffering that results from extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, floods, droughts, wildfires, and more.For remedies, advocates and politicians have tended to look toward cuts in fossil-fuel use or technologies to capture carbon before it enters the atmosphere—both of which are crucial. But this focus has overshadowed the most powerful and cost-efficient carbon capture technology in the world. Recent research confirms that forests are absolutely essential in reducing climate change, thanks to their ability to absorb and isolate carbon. In fact, natural climate solutions such as conservation and restoration of forests, along with improvements in land management, can help us achieve 37 percent of our climate target of limiting warming to a maximum of two degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, even though they currently receive only 2.5 percent of public climate financing.Forests’ power to store carbon dioxide is staggering: one tree can store an average of about 48 pounds in one year. Intact(完整的)forests could take in the CO2 emissions of some entire countries.For this reason, policymakers and business leaders must create and enforce policies to prevent deforestation, foster, reforestation of degraded land, and promote the sustainable management of standing fores ts in the fight against climate change. Protecting the world’s forests ensures they can keep performing essential functions such as producing oxygen, filtering water and supporting biodiversity. Not only does the world’s entire population depend on forests to provide clean air, clean water, oxygen and medicines, but 1.6 billion people also rely on them directly for their livelihoods.Unfortunately, a huge amount of forest continues to be converted into agricultural land to produce a handful of resource-intensive commodities - despite zero-deforestation commitments from companies and governments. So now is the time to increase forest protection and restoration. This action will also address a number of other pressing global issues. For example, in less developed, rural areas - especially in the tropics - community-based forest-management programs can forge pathways out of poverty. In the Peten region of Guatemala, for instance, community-managed forests boasted a near-zero deforestation rate from 2000 through 2013, as compared with 12 percent in nearby protected areas and buffer(缓冲)zones. These communities have built low-impact, sustainable forest-based businesses that have stimulated the economy of the region enough to fund the creation of local schools and health services. Their success is especially noticeable in a location where, outside these community-managed zones, deforestation rates have increased 20-fold.1. Which of the following statements about natural climate solutions is true according to the passage?A.They are the only effective strategies available to address the climate change.B.They pale in comparison with the reduction in fossil-fuel use or technologies.C.They can and should play a more important role in cutting carbon emissions.D.They manage to limit warming to two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.2. The word “staggering” (Paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to “_________”.A.documented B.incredibleC.unsteady D.negligible3. Which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree with?A.The policies to prevent deforestation have borne fruit.B.Developed countries are hit the hardest by climate change.C.Economic growth contributes a lot to reducing deforestation.D.Some governments fail to keep their promises to preserve forests.4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Keeping forests undamaged can go a long way toward saving the planet.B.A high-tech climate fix is required to dramatically lessen global warming.C.Governments should work together with businesses to stop deforestation.D.Sustainable management of forests is crucial in powering regional development.5. Procrastination is the act of putting off tasks until the last minute, or past their deadline.For many students, getting a task that is due in two months is a great thing. They have two months to slowly work on the task, making necessary improvements all along the way. 1 Some students plan to get to work on that task, but they never get around to it. Then, the due date rolls around and those students have to work all night to meet the deadline the next morning.2 Many jobs are lost because a worker did not get to the work in time. Deadlines are missed because a business plan wasn’t given enough consideration early on. Th ese things cost businesses large amounts of money in lost productivity.What is at the root of all of this procrastination? Some might say that it is laziness, but it is really just a problem with mindset (心态). 3It is difficult to stop this terrible habit. 4 By doing that, you would be changing the way your mind processes work. As a hypnotherapist (催眠师), I have used hypnosis to stop people from smoking and keep them away from stress. I find that it is an effective solution for procrastination as well.5 They think that it is just like the dull shows on television. That’s not what hypnosis is about, though. Hypnosis is really about changing a person’s basic senses so that their thinking is changed. This sounds like a perfect way to deal with procrastin ation, doesn’t it?6. I’ve had the good fortune of spending a lot of time working in London over the years. I’m a typical American, _________ to making eye contact and smiling when speaking to others. But until I spent time abroad, I was never quite _________ of what my facial expressions could convey.In the UK, I _________ not everyone made as much eye contact on the street as I did. And it was_________ to hold eye contact during a business meeting. My _________ smile could be considered as flirtatious (轻浮的). But my British colleagues _________: I was American. This forward attitude was not _________, but it was just my culture. _________, being expressively cheerful among those who keep _________ closer to their vest (背心 ) was accepted in the UK.____________, in other countries a cultural misunderstanding of smiling can have serious results. While it’s unlikely that a mistimed smile will ____________ you a contract (合同),____________ interactions can make it much more difficult to build effective business relationships.Different cultures ____________ smiling in different ways. In Russia, people do not smile because it ____________ that you are at best foolish or at worst, sneaky (卑劣的). Even in family photos, adults ____________ with stony faces. In Japan, smiling is a way to ____________ your feeling that you don’t want others to know. Australians have smiling cultures. While they might not have the same ____________ for giant white smiles as Americans, they smile more than our peers in Russia, Japan, Switzerland, and the UK.If Americans have to work abroad, my ____________ is to make sure you do some research. It is____________ to be yourself, but you should also learn about the culture you are going to visit. This will help you communicate ____________ and effectively with your peers.1.A.limited B.devoted C.addicted D.accustomed2.A.ashamed B.aware C.fond D.proud3.A.admitted B.imagined C.discovered D.declared4.A.special B.rare C.funny D.necessary 5.A.sweet B.artificial C.strange D.purposeful 6.A.expected B.analyzed C.predicted D.understood 7.A.friendly B.reliable C.traditional D.aggressive 8.A.Regretfully B.Luckily C.Eventually D.Frequently 9.A.sympathy B.attention C.feelings D.promises 10.A.However B.Instead C.Thus D.Otherwise 11.A.cost B.win C.save D.afford 12.A.brief B.vague C.awkward D.illegal 13.A.greet B.fancy C.explain D.avoid 14.A.indicates B.happens C.matters D.proves 15.A.appear B.leave C.hesitate D.observe 16.A.stress B.hide C.share D.assess 17.A.desire B.gift C.reason D.reputation 18.A.chance B.task C.challenge D.advice19.A.possible B.practical C.important D.simple20.A.secretly B.sensitively C.gratefully D.temporarily7. 阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1 个单词) 或括号内单词的正确形式。

西安市第一中学高二上学期期末考试英语试题答案
西安市第一中学第一学期期末考试高二英语试题答案:1-5 BCADD字母组合ex的读音规则:1.以字母组合ex开头的词,若ex后接一个元音字母且重音不落在第一个音节上,则ex的发音为/igz/(A哥自)例:exact,exam,example,exist。
2.以字母组合ex开头的词,若ex后接一个辅音字母,且重音不落在第一个音节上,则ex读/iks/(A克s)例:excuse,expect,exchange,except,experience,experi-ment,explain,expose,express,expression,expensive,extend,extraordinary。
3.以字母组合ex开头的词,无论ex后跟着什么字母,只要重音(包括次重音)落在第一个音节上,则ex的发音即为/eks/(爱克s)例:exercise,expert(专家,能手),extra(额外的),exhibition6-10 BADDC 11-15 CDBCA 16-20 CBADD15.试题分析:考查suggest用法。
当suggest表示建议的时候,后面的宾语从句使用“should+动词原形”构成的虚拟语气,Should可以省略。
当suggest表示说明,暗示的时候,使用陈述语气。
句意:他建议我们晚些时候再讨论这个计划,这一点说明他反对这计划。
说明第一空使用虚拟语气,第二空使用陈述语气。
故A正确。
17.试题分析:考查I wish后面的从句的虚拟语气。
句意:我多么希望每个家庭都能有一种带有大花园的大房子啊!根据句意说明是对现在的情况的虚拟,故使用一般过去时,故B正确18.试题分析:考查分词转换的形容词用法。
Seat是一个及物动词表示“使…就坐;能容纳”本句的seated是一个过去分词转换的形容词,意为“就坐的”;句意:坐在一棵高高的树后面,这个小女孩没有被任何人注意到。
Seated是对主句的主语the little girl进行的修饰限制,表示当时的状态。

We have a small number of paid staff,just twenty-three.Wikipedia content is free to use by anyone for any purpose.Our annual expenses are less than six million dollars. Wikipedia is run by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,which I founded in 2003.Wikipedia is driven by a global community of more than 150,000 volunteers—all devoted to sharing knowledge freely. Over almost eight years,these volunteers have contributed more than 11 million articles in 265 languages. More than 275 million people come to our website every month to access information,free of charge and free of advertising.But Wikipedia is more than a website. We share a common cause:Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. Tha t’s our commitment.Your donation helps us in several ways. Most importantly,you will help us cover the increasing cost of managing global traffic to one of the most popular websites on the Internet. Funds also help us improve the software that runs Wikipedia—making it easier to search,easier to read,and easier to write for. We are committed to increasing the free knowledge movement worldwide,by taking on new volunteer s,and building strategic partnerships with institutions of culture and learning.Wikipedia is different. It’s the largest encyclopedia (百科全书) in history,written by volunteers. Like a national park or a school,we don’t believe advertising should have a place inWikipedia. We want to keep it free and strong,but we need the support of thousands of people like you.Thank you,Jimmy Wales 46.What do the second and third paragraphs mainly talk about?A.Why you should donate to Wikipedia.B.How much the workers are paid.C.How Wikipedia is ru n.D.How many people contribute to Wikipedia.47.All the following are the reasons for the need of your donation EXCEPT________.A.to keep Wikipedia free for people all over the worldB.to update the software that runs WikipediaC.to raise the salaries of the staffD.to pay the cost of running the website48.What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Free access to all human knowledge.B.Human knowledge.C.Every single person.D.A common cause.49.Which of the following is TRUE about Wikipedia?A.It only has 23 workers at present.B.It will run a national park or a school.C.It has got much help from other people.D.It may put some advertisements to earn money.50.What’s the author’s purpose of writing this text?A.To introduce the differences between Wikipedia and other websites.B.To improve the software that runs Wikipedia.C.To make Wikipedia more popular.D.To call on people to donate to Wikipedia.BOn May 3, 2002, archaeologists in England found a grave of a man dating back to around 2300 BC. Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior. There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat. He carried a copper knife on his breast. The most amazing find was two gold earrings. That would have made him a man of distinction. Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay, tools and materials to make arrows, a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second, smaller copper knife. Next to them lay a cushion stone, upon which the man could work metal.His grave is the richest of any found from that period, because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Besides, he was buried three miles from Stonehenge. Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.Stonehenge was begun around 3000 BC. In about 2300 BC the huge stone circles were built. The biggest stone weighed approximately 20 tons. But the smaller blue stones, still weighing 4 tons on average, came from west Wales. It is not yet known how these were conveyed over a distance of 380 km. It is also a mystery how early man was able to construct Stonehenge without the use of modern construction machines and lorries.He is an example of people who brought culture and new techniques from the Europeanmainland to Britain. In terms of technical development people were going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and then to the Iron Age.51. Which are not included in the things that are found in the grave of a man'?A. Tools, a bone pin, a bow and a cushion stoneB. A copper knife and two gold earrings.C. Two pots, arrows and materials to make arrows.D. some chicken and grains.52. The man buried in the grave might be ______ at that time.A. A poor manB. a kind-hearted manC. a rich manD. an ordinary man53. Why is the man buried in the grave called the "king of Stonehenge" ?A. He was buried three miles from Stonehenge.B. He had the oldest gold ever found in Britain.C. He might be a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction ofStonehenge.D. All of the above.54. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. How Stonehenge was built.B. Building Stonehenge was hard.C. Stonehenge was made of big stones.D. It is a mystery how Stonehenge was built.55. We can infer that _______ .A. how Stonehenge was builtB. the King of Stonehenge was from FranceC. Stonehenge was built through several agesD. Stonehenge was built because of warCTHREATS TOOUR NATIONAL TREASURESJ: journalist X: Prof XuJ: People have always had interests in the past. Professor Xu, what are the most important dangers to our archaeological treasures?X: They get damaged or lost. It's a matter of education. People fail to take the right steps when something is found. Fortunately, the government has helped spreading the basic knowledge among the population, telling what is to be done when an archaeological find is made.J: What does that knowledge consist of ?X: Well, when something is found, construction work must be stopped and the police should be told about the find. That is to make sure that no further damage will be done.J: Does it still happen that people do not report things they find?X: Yes, indeed. They doubt whether it is necessary to do so. It sometimes happens that a find is not very valuable. They are afraid that they would make scientists come for nothing.J: Are there other reasons why people don't report their finds?X: Oh, yes. People are afraid that archaeologists may take a real interest in the site and spendmany weeks or months digging around at it. That would result in farmers missing the right opportunity to plant crops or construction work to be stopped for a long time. They don't realize that they should not weigh their own business interests against our national history.J: If it is so important to dig things up and collect them, then why are archaeologists worried that other people dig up artifacts and give them to museums or add them to their own private archaeological collections?X: Archaeology is a professional discipline. Years of training and experience are needed. It is not just about finding things and digging them up. The field work must be done very carefully. Of every find there needs to be a written record, to which a photograph must be added. The records must also state exactly what was found, where it was found and when. The outdoor work is followed by work in the lab, cleaning, restoring and identifying each artifact. Finally, when all is done, an analysis must be written and published in a magazine or a book.J: Are there any other dangers, natural disasters perhaps?X: Unfortunately there are treasure hunters: people search for valuable objects, especially jewellery and gold. They are the worst. History does not need to fear nature very much. What has been buried has often been buried well. It is often human digging that causes the loss of valuable materials. It may seem a contradiction, but leaving things as they are would often be the best way of keeping things for the generations to come.56. The interview is probably a conversation betweenA. Mr Xu and his wifeB. a student and a teacherC. a teacher and a newspaper reporterD. a professor and a farmer57. According to Professor Xu, there are ______ why people do not report finds.A. no reasonsB. certain threatsC. few dangersD. several reasons58. The reason why some people do not inform the police about archaeological finds is that ______ .A. they are afraid of the policeB. the government has failed to inform the publicC. they think working archaeologists will cause troubleD. they don't have the years of training and experience that are needed59. For most artifacts ______ can quite easily see whether they are valuable or not.A. farmersB. the policeC. construction workersD. local experts60. In the opinion of Professor Xu, the greatest danger to our archaeological treasures are ______ .A. natural disastersB. farmers and construction workersC. scientistsD. treasure hunters第二卷第一节单词拼写(每小题1分,满分10分)1.

AThe light from the campfire brightened the darkness, but it could not prevent the damp cold of De nnis’s Swamp (沼泽地) creeping into their bones. It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack’s dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.“So,” Martin asked as they sat watchi ng the hot coals. “How did this place get its name ? ”“Are you sure you want to hear it ? It’s a scary story,” warned Jack.“Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn’t have chosen this place!”“Ok, but don’t say I didn’t warn you,” said Jack, and he began this tale.“Way back in time, a man called Dennis trie d to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in . In those days, the area looked quite different ---- it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.“ ‘You are clearing too much land, ’ warned one old man. ‘ The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it. ’“ ‘ Silly fool,’ said Dennis to himself.‘If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I’ll become wealthier. He’s just jealous!’”“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“What happened ? ” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit back ---- just as the old man warned, ” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”“What a stupid story, ” laughed Tom. “Plants can’t …” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted(晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Sudden ly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom’s face. It was a whi le before Tom could appreciate the joke.21. The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closed in meaning to ________.A. courageB. assistanceC. instructionD. challenge22. Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man ?A. The old man envied him.B. The old man was foolishC. He was too busy to listen to others.D. He was greedy for more crops.23. Why did Tom scream and faint ?A. He saw Dennis’s shadowB. He was scared by a plantC. His friends played a joke on him.D. The weather became extremely cold.24. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis ?A. Grasp(抓住) all, lose all.B. No sweat, no sweet.C. It is no use crying over spilt milk.D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.BDo you know how to use a mobile phone without being rude to the people around you?Talking during a performance irritates (激怒) people. If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate (振动). When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance.Think twice before using mobile phones in elevators, museums, churches or other indoor public places—especially enclosed spaces. Would you wa nt to listen to someone’s conversation in these places? Worse yet, how would you feel if a mobile phone rang suddenly during a funeral! It happens more often than you think. Avoid these embarrassing situations by making sure your mobile phone is switched off.When eating at a restaurant with friends, d on’t place your mobile phone on the table. This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you.Mobile phones have sensitive microphones that allow you to speak at the volume you would on a regular phone. This enables you to speak quietly so that others won’t hear the details of your conversations. If you are calling from a noisy area, use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone.Many people believe that they can’t live without their mobile phone. Owning a mobil e phone definitely makes life more convenient, but limit your conversations to urgent ones and save the personal calls until you are at home.25. What should you do when you need to answer a phone call during a performance?A. Call back after the performance.B. Answer it near the exit door.C. Talk outside the exit door.D. Speak in a low voice.26. Putting your mobile phone on a restaurant table may make your friends think_____.A. you prefer to talk to your friends at the tableB. you value your calls more than your friendsC. you are enjoying the company of your friendsD. you are polite and considerate of your friends27. The author implies that the use of mobile phones in such places as museums should be_____.A. limitedB. expectedC. encouragedD. recommendedCLow-Cost Gifts for Mother's DayGift No. IOffer to be your mother's health friend.
