BJeremiah Thoronka was born in the fighting of the Sierra Leone civil war and grew up in the gutter(贫民窟)on the suburbs of the capital Freetown,having to burn wood for lighting heating.Jeremiahheating.Jeremiah saw with his own eyes how,in addition to the smog making breathing problems common,his young contemporaries fell behind in their schoolwork because of a lack of decent lighting.Energy poverty is a major issue in Sierra Leone—with just 26%of the population having electricity.Inelectricity.In rural parts of the country,only 6%of people have electricity access,most of whom turn to solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.As a result,it's led to the destruction of forests as people cut down trees for firewood,which leaves Sierra Le one highly sensitive to extreme events like flooding and landslides.Families reliance on firewood also leads to frequent house fires.These life-threatening disadvantages and hardships fuelled Jeremiah's passion for renew able energy and climate change advocacy.At 17 when studying at the African Leadership University in Rwanda,he launched a start-up called Optim Energy that transforms vibrations(震动)from vehicles and footfall on roads into an electric current.It is different from established renewable energy sources including wind or solar because it generates power without relying on changeable weather.Optim Energy ran a successful pilot program in Jeremiah's neighbourhoods,Makawo in the northern part of Sierra Leone and Kuntoluh east of Freetown.With just two devices,the startup provided free electricity to 150 households comprising around 500 citizens as well as15 schools where more than 9,000 students attend.Jeremiah is currently developing plans to expand into the healthcare field which needs power to cool medicines and create enough light for treating patients after dark.24.What affected the young fellows academic performance?A.The war.C.The poor lighting.B.The smog.D.The breathing problem.25.What can we learn about"energy poverty"from paragraph 2?A.It is caused by solar lanterns and dry-cell batteries.B.It has a worse impact on the city area.C.It brings about the destruction of forests.D.It increases the risk of forest fires.26.What is special about Optim Energy?A.It draws on vibrations to make electricityB.It upgrades the use of solar energy.C.It runs a pilot program throughout the city.D.It helps 9,000 students return to school.27.What message does the text want to convey?A.Electricity is the lifeblood of the city.B.Whoever is happy will make others happy too.C.Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.D.We are all in the gutter,but some are making it better.CFor a century,Jordan Creek cut across downtown Springfield.Over the decades the stream regularly flooded into the city's commercial heart.Residents had been tired of the floods so they created concrete banks to cage the stream and in 1932 buried the waterway,hiding it in culverts(排水管)under city streets.It was man's attempt to control floodwater.That was the old way of thinking.For a while,that controlled the floods.But the roads and other hard surfaces prevented water from going into the ground and allowing more rainwater into the enclosed streams than they could handle.Eventually,the water won.The neighborhood flooded in 2000,2008 and2016.For two decades,the city discussed freeing the stream and allowing water to run over the floodplain.Finally,a project to uncover 1,100 feet of Jordan Creek and build three bridges is moving forward.The new way of thinking is to give the water some room,leave some areas for floods and just let nature be nature.Uncovering buried waterways to bring them back to life is a process known as“day lighting”.Coverings are removed and an attempt is made to restore the natural flow and the surrounding ecosystem.The primary goal of the project is flood control.But the work has a variety of benefits.Native plantings will help improve the water quality by filtering(过滤)rainwater.The stream will replace an unsightly landscape and become a“string of pearls(珍珠)”connecting parks and green areas in the city's "Quality of Place"initiative.The benefits go beyond that.Stream restoration is neighborhood restoration.The project may promote economic development and increase property values and tax revenue.While the projects can be expensive,they end costly maintenance.Returning to nature is cheaper than maintaining concrete culverts.28.What did Springfield citizens in the 1930s probably believe?A.Man can control nature.C.Business is the heart of a city.B.Life is prior to development.D.Residents should not live by a river29.What was one result of covering Jordan Creek?A.Three bridges were removed.B.Water went into the ground.C.Floods hit the neighborhood.D.Rainwater was well handled30.Which aspect of the project does paragraph 4 mainly discuss?A.Economic value. C.Flood management.B.Construction planning D.Environmental impact.31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.A Solution That Proves a ProblemB.Old Thinking Inspires New ChangesC.“Buried”Streams Turn into Urban CentersD.“Daylighting”Buried Waterways to Refresh CitiesDPhilosophers have a bad reputation for expressing themselves in a dry and boring way.The ideals for most philosophical writing are precision.clarity,and the sort of conceptual analysis that leaves no hair un-split.There is nothing wrong with clarity,precision,and the like —but this isn't the only way to dophilosophy.Outside academic ,abstract philosophical ideas are often expressed through literature,cinema,and song.There's nothing that grabs attention like a good story,and there are some great philosophical stories that delight and engage,rather than putting the reader to sleep.One of the great things about this is that,unlike formal philosophy,which tries to be very clear,stories don't wear their meanings on their sleeve —they require interpretation,and often express conflicting ideas for the reader to wrestle with.Consider what philosophers call the metaphysics(形而上学)of race —an area of philosophy that explorers the question of whether or not race is real.There are three main positions that you can take on these questions.You might think that a person's race is written in their genes(a position known as“biological realism”).Or you might think of race as socially real,like days of the week or currencies ("social constructionism").Finally,you might think that races are unreal —that they're more like leprechauns(一种魔法精灵)than they are like Thursdays or dollars(“anti-realism”).A great example of a story with social constructionist taking on race is George Schuyler's novel Black No More.In the book,a Black scientist named Crookman invents a procedure that makes Black people visually indistinguishable from Whites.Thousands of African Americans flock to Crookman's Black No More clinics and pay him their hard-earned cash to undergo the procedure.White racists can no longer distinguish those people who are "really"White from those who merely appear to be White.In a final episode,Crookman discovers that new Whites are actually a whiter shade of pale than those who were born that way,which kicks off a trend of sunbathing to darken one's skin-darkening it so as to look more White.Philosophically rich stories like this bring more technical works to life.They are stories to think with.32.What does the author think of philosophical stories?A.The meaning behind is very obvious.B.They am extremely precise and formal.C.They often cause conflicts among readers.D.They are engaging and inspire critical thinking.33.Which category might "Christmas"fall into according to paragraph 4?A.Social constructionism.C.Biological realism.B.Anti-realism.D.Literary realism.34.What is Black No More in paragraph 5 mainly about?A.Racial issues caused by skin colors.B.A society view on race and self-image:C.Black people accepted by the white society.D.The origin of sun bathing among white people.35.What is the best title of the text?A.Stories Made Easy C.Positions in PhilosophyB.Stories to Think withD.Nature of Philosophical Writing第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)Do Lobsters Feel Pain?The traditional method for cooking a lobster(龙虾)—boiling it alive —raises the question of whether or not lobsters feel pain. 36 .Lobsters go bad very quickly after they die,and eating a dead lobster,increases the risk of illness and reduces the quality of its flavor.However,if lobsters are capable of feeling pain,the method and others,such as storing the live lobster on ice,raise moral questions for chefs and lobster eaters alike.37 Lobsters have a peripheral system like humans,but instead of a single brain,they possess nerve cluster(神经簇).Because of this difference,some researchers argue lobsters are too dissimilar to vertebrates(脊椎动物)to feel pain.Nonetheless,lobsters do satisfy all of the standard for a pain response.Lobsters guard their injuries,learn to avoid dangerous situations,respond to anesthetics,and are believed to possess some level of consciousness.So most scientists believe that injuring a lobster causes physical pain.38 ,so it is now becoming illegal to boil lobsters alive or keep them on ice.Currently,boiling lobsters alive is illegal in Switzerland,New Zealand,and the Italian city Reggio Emilia.The most humane tool for cooking a lobster is the CrustaStun.This device electrocutes a lobster,making it unconscious in less than half a second or killing it in 5 to 10 seconds. 39 .Unfortunately,the CrustaStun is too expensive for most restaurants and people to afford.Some restaurants place a lobster in a plastic bag and place it in the freezer for a couple of hours,during which time it loses consciousness and dies. 40 ,but it is probably the most humane option for killing a lobster before cooking and eating it.A.This solution is not idealB.And then,it can be cut apart or boiledC.Lobsters are popular food in many countriesD.There is growing evidence that lobsters may feel painE.Scientists disagree over whether or not lobsters feel painF.Many restaurants choose more humane methods to cook itG.This cooking way is used to improve humans' dining

高二英语月考试题2018.9考试范围：Units1---3 考试时间：120分钟满分：150分一、听力部分（共30分）二、阅读理解(共30分）1.（8分）AFrancis Bacon,one of the most important philosophers(哲人)of England,was born in London and educated at Cambridge University.When he was only 15,he went to France to work for the English ambassador(大使).Two years later he went to England to study law.At the age of twenty three he was chosen to parliament(议会).His ideas about how scientists should study things in nature help to bring the modern way of thinking,called the scientific method.One of the Bacon best known books was his Essays.Each essay was a short piece of writing in which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying,conversation,friends and healthful living.In many of his books,Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they really exist in nature and then try to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it ter,by doing experiments,the scientists could see that any one cause would always have the same result.This method,which is called inductive reasoning,is used by all the scientists today,but it was new in Bacon’s time.（21）According to the passage we know that ________.A.Francis Bacon was the most important philosopher of EnglandB.Francis Bacon had good educationC.Francis Bacon worked for a French ambassador at the age of 15D.Francis Bacon stayed in France until he was 23（22）It can be known that Francis Bacon was famous for________.A.inventing the scientific method of studying things in natureB.his booksC.his method,inductive reasoningD.being a member of parliament（23）His essays gave many useful lessons on ________.A.studyingB.conversationC.friends and healthful livingD.All of the above.（24）The underlined phrase “inductive reasoning” in the last paragraph means________.A.discovering general laws from particular facts or examplesB.reaching a conclusion by reasoning from general laws to a particular caseC.studying things as they used to beD.studying things in a particular way2.（8分）BDogs are man's best friends.This everyday saying may contain some truth，but dogs are not the only animal friends that people like.For example，cats can be excellent house pets，too.People enjoy the friendship of cats.Cats love to keep close to their owners.Cats are quite playful.They love to run after balls，or play with anything hanging from a string. They especially enjoy playing when their owners play the game with them.Just like a dog，a cat can be trained to perform tricks（诡计）or avoid unwanted behaviour.Cats do not have to be walked.They get plenty of exercise in the house as they play，and they do their business in their litter boxes.So their owners only need to spend time cleaning their litter boxes.Washing a cat is almost never necessary because cats usually clean themselves.In addition，cats can be left alone at home for a few hours without any worry.Unlike some pets，most cats willnot destroy the furniture when left alone.They just go about their usual activities until their owners return.Cats are polite members of a family.Unlike dogs，cats do not make lots of loud noise. They walk very quietly.Also，cats don't often have “accidents”．Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box，and most cats will use it from that time on.Cats keep their energy by sleeping more than most animals，especially as they grow older.（25）From the passage，we can learn that ______.A.cats would rather play with themselvesB.cats often play tricks on their ownersC.many people think dogs are man's best friendsD.cats sleep less than any other animal does（26）What can be concluded（推断） from the passage?A.Cats are very easy to be kept as house pets.B.Cats need more time to do exercise than dogs.C.Cats are afraid of being left alone at home.D.Cats don't like to clean themselves.（27）In the fourth paragraph，we can learn that cats are ______.A.playfulB.cuteC.politeD.noisy（28）Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?A. B. C. D.3.（6分）Dolphins are not fish，but warmblooded animals.They live in groups，and speak to each other in their own language.In this way they are like other animals，such as bees and birds.But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals.Their brain is nearly the same size as our own，and they live a long time—at least twenty or thirty years.Like some other animals，dolphins use sound to help them find their way around.They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds，but the lower part of the mouth，called the jaw.Strangely，dolphins seem to like man，and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century.In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand，they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack.From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way.Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called the Penguin shot and wounded(伤害)Jack.He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area—except for the Penguin. Today，some people continue to kill dolphins，but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.（29）Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A.live in groupsB.have large brainsC.are warmbloodedD.have their own language（30）Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for Jack?A.He was lonely and liked to be with people.B.They enjoyed playing with him.C.He was seriously wounded.D.They wanted his help.（31）By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A.dolphins are friendly and cleverB.people are cruel to animalsC.Jack is different from other dolphinsD.dolphins should be protected by law4.（8分）Without proper planning，tourism can cause problems.For example，too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of the country.If tourists create too much traffic，the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy.It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem.If tourism grows too quickly，people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry.This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.On the other hand，if there is not enough tourism，people can losejobs.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels，airports，firstclass roads，and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions.For example，a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build.If this room is not used most of the time，the owners of the hotel will lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many other support facilities as well，including roads to get to the hotel，electricity，sewers(下水道)to handle waste，and water.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are not used because there are not enough tourists，jobs and money are lost.（32）Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A.It is extremely important to develop tourism.B.Building roads and hotels is important.C.Support facilities are highly necessary.D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.（33）The underlined word “inhabitants”(in Paragraph 1)probably means ______.A.citizensB.passengersC. populationD.tourists（34）Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ______.A.a bad effect on other industriesB.a change of tourists' customsC.overcrowdedness of places of interestD.pressure on traffic（35）It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.the author doesn't like tourism developing so fastB.local people will benefit from tourist attractionC.other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism muchD.we can't build too many support facilities三、阅读填空(共10分）5.（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。

He was holding down two jobs at the time — one with the city’s public works department, the other as a barber. Saturday was his busiest hair-cutting day, but he chose to donate his time and give free haircuts to unfortunate kids so they’d look neat on that first day of classes. But then he had a light bulb moment: “The kids should earn their free haircut by having to read a book to me,” Holmes said.The idea was so popular that he continued it the first Tuesday of every month for the next two years. Boys from five to ten years old would grab a favorite book, settle into the barber chair, and read aloud while Holmes was doing their hair. If they were puzzled over a word, Holmes was there to help. After the haircut, they’d review he book, from the characters and vocabulary to the themes — just like in school, only more fun. Holmes, who is married and has two sons, ages three and four, recognizes that not every parent has the time to read with their kids.Holmes admits he, too, benefits from the process. “There was this seven-year-old who struggled through his book, stuttering over words even though he didn’t have a stutter (口吃),” said Holmes. He had the boy take the book home and practice. When the child came back a few days later, “He read it with no problems. That inspires me.”Holmes and his family have recently moved to a Chicago suburb. When they get settled, he plans to take up his role as the Story-book Barber. “The way the world is today with guns and violence,” he says, “it’s a safe heaven for the kids, to come to the barbershop and read books.”4．What do we know about Holmes two years ago?A．He had only one job.B．He earned a lot as a barber.C．He offered free haircuts to the poor kids.D．He was the organizer of Back to School Bash.5．The example in Paragrap3 mainly proves that _______.A．Holmes is very strict with the kidsB．Holmes also learns a lot from the kidsC．being a fluent reader needs plenty of practiceD．many kids have trouble in reading a storybook6．What can we learn from the last Paragraph?A．Holmes is dissatisfied with the world today.B．Holmes’ barbershop will have some changes.C．Holmes’ barbershop has won great popularity.D．Holmes will continue to be a storybook barber.7．What is the best title for the text?A．The Storybook BarberB．Back to School BashC．Reading Counts A LotD．Care About the KidsAny schoolchild knows that a whale breathes through its blowhole. Fewer know that a blowhole is a nostril (鼻孔) slightly changed by evolution into a form more useful for a mammal that spends its life at sea. And only a dedicated expert would know that while toothed whales, such as sperm whales, have one hole, baleen (鲸须) whales, such as humpback and Rice whales, have two.Even among the baleen whales, the placing of those nostrils differs. In some species they are close together. In others, they are much further apart. In a paper published in Biology Letters Conor Ryan, a marine biologist at the Scottish Association for Marine Science, suggests why that might be. Having two nostrils, he argues, helps whales smell in stereo (立体空间).Many types of baleen whales eat tiny animals known as zooplankton (浮游动物), whichthey catch by filtering (过滤) them from seawater using the sheets of fibrous baleen that have replaced teeth in their mouths. But to eat something you first have to find it. Toothed whales do not hunt by scent. In fact, the olfactory bulb—the part of the brain that processes smell—is absent in such creatures. But baleen whales still have olfactory bulbs, which suggests smell remains important. And scent can indeed give zooplankton away. Zooplankton like to eat other tiny creatures called phytoplankton (浮游植物). When these are under attack, they release a special gas called dimethyl sulphide, which in turn attracts baleen whales.Most animals have stereoscopic senses. Having two eyes, for instance, allows an animal to compare the images from each in order to perceive depth. Having two ears lets them locate the direction from which a sound is coming. Dr Ryan theorized that paired blowholes might bring baleen whales the same sorts of benefits.The farther apart the sensory organs are, the more information can be extracted by the animal that bears them. The researchers used drones to photograph the nostrils of 143 whales belonging to 14 different species. Sure enough, baleen whales that often eat zooplankton, such as the North Atlantic right whale, have nostrils that are farther apart than do those, such as humpback whales, that eat zooplankton occasionally. Besides allowing them to breathe, it seems that some whales use their blowholes to determine in which direction dinner lies.8．What do we know about whales’ nostrils according to the first two paragraphs?A．They are adapted ones.B．They are developed merely for smell.C．They are not easy to detect.D．They are fixed universally in numbers. 9．What plays a role when baleen whales hunt zooplankton?A．The teeth that baleen whales have.B．The smell that phytoplankton send.C．The sound waves that zooplankton create.D．The chemical signals that zooplankton give off.10．How is the concept of stereoscopic senses explained in paragraph 4?A．By quoting a theory.B．By using examples.C．By making contrast.D．By making inferences.11．What is the position of nostrils related to according to the last paragraph?A．The sense of smell.B．The possibility to attract food.C．The ability to locate food.D．The ability to communicate.In a world where everyone has their own opinions on just about everything, it’s common for people to be critical of each other’s mistakes and imperfections without noticing their own. Some individuals mistakenly think it’s their responsibility to make you into a better person. They do this by first pointing out your shortcomings directly and then providing advice on how you can improve.So what is the possible solution to criticism? If you are the one forcing others to feel ashamed of themselves, please stop. Make a conscious decision rather than highlight the negative aspect of a person’s performance or attitudes. You are more likely to offer helpful suggestions from the beginning. If you are on the receiving end of criticism, the “OK” response is a perfect solution. When someone comments negatively on a task you are doing or a personality issue of yours, a natural response is to defend and attack. However, this approach is rarely effective as it puts both parties on the defensive. Instead, simply reply with “OK”. This brief one-word response acknowledges the other person’s comment without agreeing with it or feeling necessary to engage in a debate about it.It’s crucial to stay connected to what the other person is talking about, and listen without getting upset, to be an objective observer. In fact, there is much that one can learn from a negative review. You can ask yourself: Did I make a mistake? Could I have done better? Did I give 100% of myself to the task at hand? If so, how can I improve myself? As for chronic criticizers: It is important to set strict boundary with them. Remove yourself from their presence when necessary.In any case, one can learn to be “OK” with criticism and not allow it to negatively impact your life or relationship with the other party.12．What might the author think of people who like to judge others?A．Self-centered.B．Responsible.C．Talkative.D．Warm-hearted. 13．What does a person mean by saying “OK” according to Paragraph 3?A．He thinks the advice is helpful.B．He completely agrees with the comments.C．He wants to avoid unnecessary arguments.D．He defends himself with the response. 14．What is the recommended action for dealing with chronic criticizers?A．Embrace their views.B．Criticize them in return.C．Avoid interaction if needed.D．Engage with them regularly.15．What is the most suitable title for the text?A．The Art of Giving Criticism B．Mastering Self-Defense against Criticism C．Dealing with Personal Relationships Flexibly D．The Path to Self-Improvement through CriticismLessons that are Learned from the OlympicsThe Olympic Games are enjoyed by everyone. Here are some tips about how to bring the deeper meaning of the Olympics into your life.◆Excellence comes with hard work and practice.Learning about the training schedules of Olympic athletes reminds us that success doesn’t come easily. Repetition is the servant (仆人) of success. Set long-term goals as well as realistic ones. 16 And remember the most important competitor you have is actually you.◆ 17There are hundreds of events at the Olympics, each standing for a specific activity that athletes have chosen to follow. You can recognize the creativity and excitement and form strong feelings about it, which will help you to achieve your dreams.◆Expect to fail sometimes.Every athlete who has made it into Olympic competition has suffered injury and disappointment along the way, but that has not been the end of their dream. 18 You can treat your setbacks (挫折) as a teaching tool.◆Enjoy your success.Observe the Olympic athletes when they stand on the winners’ platform with their medals, listening to their national anthems (国歌). Their pride is obvious. Enjoy the feelings of power that come from your achievement. 19◆Enjoy other cultures.With its symbol of the five-ring Olympic flag, the Olympics celebrate the unity of the games while honoring individual nationality. 20A．You deserve it.B．Have confidence in yourselves.C．Work hard for your personal best.D．Find your strong feelings and develop it.E．Enough practice will make you successful.F．Athletes show respect to those from other countries.G．They know that they can learn more from failure than success.二、完形填空When my sister Diane began playing the violin, she was seven.

At long last,in a comfortable home,with a generous pension he should learn to take things easy.“Thank you for your nice words,”he wrote in his letter back,“and I know what you meant,but slowing down scares me.Life isn’t having it made;it’s getting it made.”“The finest and happiest years of our lives were not when all the debts were paid,and all difficult experiences had passed,and we had settled into a comfortable home.No.I go back years ago,when we lived in a three-room house,when we got up before daylight and worked till after dark to make ends meet.I rarely had more than four hours of sleep.But what I still can’t figure out is why I never got tired,never felt better in my life.I guess the answer is,we were fighting for survival,protecting and providing for those we loved.What matters are not the great moments,but the partial victories,the waiting,and even the defeats.It’s the journey,not the arrival,that counts.”The letter ended with a personal request:“Boy,on my next birthday,just tell me to wake up and get going,because I will have one less year to do things—and there are ten million things waiting to be done.”Christina Rossetti,an English poet,once said:“Does the road wind uphill all the way?Yes,to the very end.”Today,at 96,my grandfather is still on that long road,climbing.66.Wh at was the author’s grandfather before he retired?(no more than 5 words)_________________________________________________________________67.What did the author advise his grandfather to do in his letter?(no more than 10 words)_________________________________________________________________68.What is the grandfather’s view on life according to his letter back?(no more than 10 words)_________________________________________________________________69.How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?(no more than 10 words)_________________________________________________________________70.Do you agree with the grandfather’s view on life?Give reasons in your own words.(no more than 20 words)_________________________________________________________________六：书面表达（满分20分）假设你是新华中学的学生李华，你校英语协会正在招募志愿者，来接待来访的外国中学生。

Without him, the world might still be a dark place. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the phonograph(留声机), the motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.Thomas Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11, 1847. His family moved to Port Huron, Michigan, when he was seven years old. Surprisingly, he attended school for only two months. His mother, a former teacher, taught him a few things, but he was mostly self-educated. His natural curiosity led him to start experimenting at a young age with electrical and mechanical things at home.When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train that ran between Port Huron and Detroit. He set up a laboratory in a baggage car of the train so that he could continue his experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work experience did not end well. He was fired when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the baggage car.Thomas Edison then worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time on the job conducting experiments. He got his first patent(专利) in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity. However, the vote recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another invention, a stock-ticker, for $40,000. The stock-ticker is a machine that automatically prints stock prices on atape.Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work.56. Of all Edison’s inventions, ______ was probably the most important formankind.A. the electric lightB. the stock-tickerC. the vote recorderD. the motion picture camera57. Choose the right order of the events given in the passage.a. Edison worked as a newsboy.b. Edison moved to Port Huron.c. Edison got his first patent.d. Edison became a telegraph operator.A. b-a-d-cB. a-b-d-cC. a-b-c-dD. b-a-c-d58. The underlined word “blessing”can be replaced by ______.A. necessityB. disadvantageC. disabilityD. benefit59. What made Edison a great inventor?A. The education from his motherB. His interest and hard workC. His early work experienceD. His deafness and talent.BIn 1865, a creative engineer, John Roebling, decided to build a bridgeconnecting New York with the Long Island. However, bridge experts throughout the world thought that this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea.However, Roebling thought about it all the time and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. He just had to share the dream with someone else. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington that the bridge in fact could be built.With great excitement and inspiration, and great hardships before them, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge in 1869.The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move. In spite of his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.Now all he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By touching his wife’s arm with that finger, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife’s arm, telling the engineers what to do, until the bridge was finally completed.60. T o build a bridge between New York and the Long Island _______.A. was a dream of many bridge expertsB. was a terribly difficult taskC. was supported by the American governmentD. sounded creative to many bridge building experts61.

It is true, we meet all kinds of situations during the day, and some of them may not be conductive(有好处的) to happiness. We can choose to refuse to think about the unhappy events. If we let outer events influence our moods, we become their slaves. On the other hand, we can free ourselves from outer influences. We can choose to be happy, and we can do a lot to add happiness to our lives.What is happiness? It is a feeling of inner peace and satisfaction. It is usually experienced when there are no worries, fears or confused thoughts, and this usually happens when we do something we love to do or when we win, gain or achieve something that we value. It seems to be the outcome of positive events, but it actually comes from the inside,triggered(触发) by outer events.For most people happiness seems passing quickly. One of the best ways to keep it, is by gaining inner peace through daily meditation(冥想). As the mind becomes more peaceful, it becomes easier to choose the happiness habit.Here are a few tips for increasing happiness in daily life:Try hard to change the way you look at things. Always look at the bright side.Think of solutions, not problems.Listen to relaxing, uplifting music.Watch funny comedies that make you laugh.Each day, devote some time to reading a few pages of an inspiring book or article.Whenever you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, start thinking ofpleasant things.68. For most people happiness seems passing quickly because _______.A. they let changing outer circumstances affect themB. they hope that even greater happiness will comeC. they have no friends to share happiness with themD. they don’t want to achieve any greater happiness69. We can learn from the passage that our happiness is _______.A. that we own a great deal of moneyB. to achieve the goal we havebeen seekingC. a feeling of inner peace and satisfactionD. the feeling that we areadmired by others70. According to the author happiness depends on _______.A. outer circumstancesB. our attitude toward itC. the conditions we haveD. the objective world71. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Happiness Is the Goal in Daily Life.B. Happiness Exists in Everyone’s Mind.C. Happiness Can Be Chosen by Us.D. Tips for happiness in Daily Life.EThese days a green building means more than just the color of the paint. Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “reducing the effect of the building on the land,”Taryn Holowka of the US Green Building Council in Washington, DC, said.According to Holowka, buildings account for 65 percent of total US electricity use. But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of natural resources, such as gasoline, and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings don’t destroy forests or other wild habitats. Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that put these ideas into action. The Solaire has been called the country’s first green residential high-rise(高层的) building.According to Dettling, “We’ve reduced our energy consumption(消费量) by one-third and our water by 50 percent.The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. The Solaire also has lights that automatically(自动地) turn off when people leave the room. Plus, the building has lots of windows. This allows people to use the sun for light instead of lamps during the day.72. Green buildings are _______.A. far away from public transportationB. built in the forestsC. earth-friendlyD. often built on developing land73. Green buildings are built near public transportation mainly for the purposeof ______.A. taking buses or subways easilyB. saving natural resourcesC. driving private cars lessD. protecting the environment 74. The Solaire is thought to be “green ” because it ________. A. locates near a forest B. lies close to stores C. reduces energy and water use D. was built with green materials 75. Which of the following is used to cut energy consumption in the Solaire? A. Closing windows as long as possible. B. Reducing the time of using lights. C. Recycling solar power. D. Using natural resources.●●●●●……第二卷：第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

河北省邢台市2024-2025学年高二上学期第一次月考英语试题

河北省邢台市2024-2025学年高二上学期第一次月考英语试题一、阅读理解The UK is an incredibly diverse destination for travelers. Here’s our pick of some splendid places to visit in the country. Grasmere, Lake DistrictEngland’s Lake District has such a breadth of beautiful landscapes that visiting just one doesn’t do it justice. Grasmere is perhaps one of the best places to start. Grasmere houses great hotels as well as an award-winning small bookshop, which is for stocking up on maps and mountain literature. Grasmere’s Dove Cottage was home to poet William Wordsworth. Cairngorms National Park, ScotlandScotland’s Cairngorms is arguably the last truly wild place remaining in the UK. In winter, these hills sit beneath meters of wind-swept snow. In summer, the long days and warm sun make it the perfect place for hiking and camping. Adventurers will go hiking into the hills, while those who want to be quieter should go to Loch an Eilein, a ruined castle located on its central island where you can enjoy the scenery on postcards and see red squirrels (松鼠) up close. Hadrian’s Wall, NorthumberlandThe one-time northern frontier of the Roman Empire, Hadrian’s Wall is arguably the greatest historical site in a country blessed with castles and ruins. Stretching from one side of England to the other, its central section is the most arresting, the wall rising and falling across steep hills. Those with more time can follow the 135-kilometer national path, taking in the wall from Newcastle to the Solway Firth. Glens of Antrim, Northern IrelandThe nine Glens of Antrim extend down from the Antrim Plateau to the Irish Sea. You can hire a car and follow the winding coast road, built in the 1830s, which covers over 160 kilometers, with views of the hills. The Glens of Antrim has a starring role in a TV series, meaning this part of Northern Ireland has attracted a flood of tourists in recent years.1．What can visitors do at Grasmere?A．Visit Newcastle’s wall.B．Attend the local book fair.C．Explore Wordsworth’s life.D．Observe red squirrels at close range. 2．Which has been made famous through exposure in a TV series?A．Grasmere.B．Cairngorms National Park.C．Hadrian’s Wall.D．Glens of Antrim.3．Who is the text most likely intended for?A．Beach-goers.B．Castle-admirers.C．Literature-explorers.D．Travel-lovers.Virginia “Ginger” Hislop, now 105, recently received her master’s degree from Stanford University, 83 years after completing her master ‘ s in education in Stanford in 1941. Originally Hislop desired to be a lawyer, but her father rejected paying law school tuition (学费) because he didn’t support women lawyers. Therefore, Teaching was the next best choice for Hislop with the help of her grandmother and aunt. She enrolled at Stanford in 1936, earning her bachelor’s (学士) degree in education four years later.It’s worth noting that even if she had received her degree, many school systems wouldn’t have hired her as a married woman. Not until the 1964 Civil Rights Act were these “marriage bars” that allowed for schools to not hire wives, and even fire teachers who got married after hiring, completely done away with. Gender (性别) inequality may have put a hold on her career, but they led to her becoming a powerful advocate for all students.Hislop worked to improve educational opportunities for all students, believing everyone should have access to higher education if they desired. Her efforts contributed to transforming Yakima Valley College from a junior college to an independent institution awarding associates, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. This was achieved through her work with local and state legislators and the Community College Act of 1967. Hislop also served on boards of various education and arts-focused organizations.“I didn’t return to teaching, but I feel I put my teaching certificate to good use serving in committees and on boards and trying to improve educational opportunities every chance I got,” Hislop says. At 105, Hislop remains an active community member. Her son-in-law Doug Jensen notes, “The biggest lesson I’ve taken from her is that you never really stop learning. She’s a reader with a strong thirst for knowledge, and at 105 she’s still energetically moving and shaking.”4．What made Hislop choose teaching?A．Financial difficulties of her family.B．Family responsibilities.C．Her interest in education.D．Her father’s refusal of tuition.5．What can we know about the society when Hislop was young?A．Women faced many limits on career.B．Lawyer was the best job choice.C．Education was open to everyone.D．Men and women had equal chances. 6．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．Hislop’s political ambitions.B．Hislop’s plan to build educational equality.C．Hislop’s desire to change education policies.D．Hislop’s efforts and contribution in education.7．Which of the following can best describe Hislop?A．Determined and devoted.B．Energetic and humorous.C．Wise but indecisive.D．Courageous but impatient.Several companies in different fields are hurrying to develop cool and dry face masks to help people in the upcoming unbearable summer heat in Japan.For instance, a sports marketing company in late May started sales of face masks made with a soft stretch material that is used for its swimsuits and wear for track and field athletics. By using the material, the repeatedly washable mask can fit the face with less stress and help prevent splash infections (感染). The product, which costs 935 yen including tax, gained strong popularity, with 20,000 pieces sold on its first online sales day.Similarly, another Japanese company, a maker of equipment for badminton, tennis and other sports, will sell masks made with its “Very Cool” material containing xylitol from early July. Xylitol absorbs heat, responding to sweat, and the material is used for the wear for the Japan badminton national team, as well as professional tennis players. The company plans to sell the mask at 840 yen, tax included. Notably, the length of the string of the quick-drying mask can be adjusted for a better fit.In addition, a fast retailing company plans to start selling face masks this summer featuring a highly breathable and fast-drying material used for its popular underwear products that are cool and dry quickly. Its spokeswoman said the date of the debut of the mask and its price will be announced once they are determined. But one thing is for sure: It won’t cost more than 1,000 yen, including tax.Moreover, a company, specializing in the production and sale of various knit products, hasput on sale cloth masks equipped with ice packs. The mask has two pockets to hold four refrigerant (冷却的) packs and can cool the user’s face for one to two hours. The new mask sells for 1,300 yen, including tax, in vending machines and online sales are also available. The mask can be used repeatedly if cooled in a freezer.These innovative approaches by various companies highlight the diverse strategies being employed to combat the intense summer heat while ensuring safety and comfort for the users. 8．What is the purpose of this text?A．To warn people to wear face masks.B．To introduce some face masks fit for summer.C．To find some materials suitable for face masks.D．To refer to some famous companies in Asia.9．What’s the unique feature of the masks made by the sports marketing company?A．Absorbing heat.B．Breathable and fast-drying.C．Washable and with less stress on the face.D．Cool the user’s face for one hour. 10．What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph 4 mean?A．The first public appearance,B．The research of the material.C．The convenience of the material.D．The lowest price.11．Which company’s masks are the most costly?A．The sports marketing company.B．The company selling equipment forbadmintonC．The fast retailing company.D．The company selling various knit products.The China National Space Administration (CNSA) has successfully collected rock and soil samples from the far side of the moon, which will offer scientists an opportunity to study the lesser-understood lunar face unseen from Earth.The samples entered Earth’s atmosphere on Tuesday and landed in northern China. They were secured in a re-entry capsule (太空舱) from a larger spacecraft, called Chang’e-6. The entire mission lasted nearly two months and marked a milestone for lunar research. “Chang’e-6 is the first mission in human history to return samples from the far side of the moon,” Long Xiao, a planetary geologist, tells the media. “This is a major event for scientists worldwide.”Launched on May 3, the Chang’e-6 spacecraft consisted of four modules: an ascender (上升器), an orbiter, a lunar lander and a return capsule. It reached lunar orbit five days later, where it remained for several weeks. On June 1, the lander successfully descended and touched down on the far side of the moon in the South Pole Aitken Basin. Directing the movement of a spacecraft on the far side of the moon is difficult, because the moon blocks radio signals from Earth. To solve this problem, CNSA engineers used two relay satellites, Queqiao and Queqiao-2, launched ahead of this mission, to communicate with the spacecraft.Once on the moon, Chang’e-6 used a robotic arm to collect 4.4 pounds of lunar material. “Collecting samples from the far side is exciting, as we only have very limited information on the geology there,” says Martin Barstow, an astrophysicist at the University of Leicester in England. The collection of rocks launched from the lunar surface in the spacecraft’s ascender on June 3, then united with the orbiter later. It began its earth-bound journey on June 21, and will get to China this week.Scientists hope the lunar soil will offer evidence of the history of the moon, which could also explain that of the Earth. Most lunar basins were formed from asteroid showers 3.9 billion years ago, which also hit the Earth and possibly carried water there.12．Which carried the lunar soil back to Earth?A．The orbiter.B．The lunar lander.C．The ascender.D．The return capsule. 13．How long did it take the Chang’e-6 to reach the moon?A．Nearly a month.B．About a week.C．20 days.D．11 days.14．What is the function of the relay satellites?A．To prevent the Chang’e-6 spacecraft being harmed.B．To repair the Chang’e-6 spacecraft in case of emergency.C．To provide better signals for the Chang’e-6 spacecraft.D．To better observe the flight of the Chang’e-6 spacecraft.15．Why is the soil from the far side of the moon important?A．It is the first time to collect lunar soil.B．It may help scientists know more about the moon.C．The soil is very rare on the moon.D．It is made up of at least 100 chemicalelements.Over the last year, grocery (食品杂货) prices have increased a bit. Mia Moncel, founder of a cooking program, gives tips on how to spend less money at the store. Do online research16 . “Just type each item into the search bar on your grocery store’s website,” Moncel says. “It will show you what they have available at that store, and you can compare them in the comfort of your home instead of waiting in line at the grocery store.”Don’t think bulk (大量) deals are betterIs it always cheaper to buy in bulk? “Not all the time,” says Moncel. 17 . For example, if you decide whether to buy that family size box of cookies, or just a regular box, look at the price per kilogram. If the regular box has a lower price per kilogram than the bulk pack, it’s a better deal. Replace pricey ingredients (原料) with cheap ones“Meat usually costs more than vegetables,” says Moncel. 18 For example, if a dish calls for a pound of beef, you could reduce the beef by half and then take less expensive ingredients like beans. That way, you’ll still get the taste of the beef without the cost. 19 “Before you head to the store, take your shopping list into the kitchen and carefully check whether you have those items. You might not realize you already have some of those things on hand,” says Moncel. Think outside the big-box grocery storeOrganic eggs, for example, are sometimes cheaper at farmer’s markets. So shop around. “Once you get to know the average prices at each of these stores, decide which one is the best to shop this week,” Moncel says. “ 20 .”A．Double-check your kitchenB．Store delicious foods at homeC．There are two options open to youD．She suggests paying attention to unit pricesE．But cutting back doesn’t mean going withoutF．It may take more time, but it can save your moneyG．Compare the prices of foods online before you go shopping二、完形填空When I was 17, my rowing coach declared that taking a day off a week was unnecessary.

She then met her husband and got married. Merrill first thought about going to school part-time to get a degree, but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school. Certainly, it was a challenge. Speaking of her successfully returning to university, Merrill thought it was credited to her family largely. “When I was accepted at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona,” said Merrill, who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency (实习期) in neurosurgery. “In fact, they volunteered these movements. I know it was tough for all of us.”Merrill and her children often have “homework parties” where they study for their own courses. Merrill’s choice has given a stimulus to her children. Merrill felt touched knowing her 11-year-old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom’s going to be a cool brain surgeon, though he doesn’t understand that really.Merrill’s next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male-dominated field where only 5% of board certified neurosurgeons are women. Dr. Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student. Halyard said, “If you can deal with nine children and keep your reason, the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail.”Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly specialty, but, again, chose to dream big and follow her original pursuit. It’s the same advice she would give to all. “Set the goal that is what you’re really enthusiastic about, and it helps to think small. If you know what your priorities are, focus on the next step. Then you’ll get where you want to go.”4．Why does Merrill speak of their movements?A．To show the support of her family.B．To stress her determination to be a doctor.C．To reflect difficulties in attending college.D．To describe the process of pursuing her dream.5．What does the underlined word “stimulus” mean in paragraph 3?A．Entertainment.B．Inspiration.C．Commitment.D．Confusion.6．What does Halyard mean in paragraph 4?A．Merrill will have more stress to handle.B．Staying focused and sensible is key to success.C．Being Mom makes Merrill a better doctor.D．She is confident of Merrill’s being a neurosurgeon.7．What does Merrill suggest at last?A．Starting with small things.B．Getting your priorities right.C．Being true to your passion.D．Having the courage to dream big.Imagine being able to go to your local park and pick some tomatoes, potatoes or even bananas to take home for dinner. Sounds too good to be true, right? For residents of Andernach, a German city, it’s not just a Utopian dream — it’s their reality. In 2010, Andernach began its “edible city” project, planting 101 varieties of tomatoes in public green spaces around the city centre. Its 30,000 residents are free to help themselves to whatever grows, as are any other visitors. Every year a new type of plant is introduced. In 2011, 100 types of beans were planted, while 2012 saw the introduction of 20 onion varieties. The town’s motto (座右铭) is, “Picking is encouraged — help yourself!”It’s a community effort, as local citizens are encouraged to help plant and maintain thegardens. This offers an opportunity to socialize as well as to learn about planting, cultivating and harvesting food. “I often drop by to pick some herbs that I’m missing at home. Everything is easily accessible. There aren’t any fences. You just take what you need. The only thing is you have to be quick once the fruits are ripe or they’ll all be gone!” said a local historian.Andernach may be the first, but it isn’t the only edible city. It’s part of the Edible Cities Network, an EU-funded project connecting green urban food initiatives (倡议) around the world. Other edible cities include Carthage in Tunisia, Havana in Cuba and Šempeter-Vrtojba in Slovenia. In February 2022, the first Edible Cities Network Conference took place. Dr. Ina Säumel, Principal Investigator of the Edible Cities Network, called it, “a unique opportunity to invite researchers and practitioners (从业人员) of Edible City Solutions to the same table and unite theory with practice”.Ultimately, the Edible Cities Network aims to create “greener, more edible and, above all, more livable cities”. It is a response to the pressures of climate change, and a cause for hope. 8．What is paragraph 1 mainly about?A．The process of Andernach’s growth.B．The green food project in Andernach.C．Methods of planting vegetables in Europe.D．The popularity of Andernach’s city design.9．What is the attitude of the local historian mentioned in paragraph 2 towards the project?A．Doubtful.B．Indifferent.C．Positive.D．Negative.10．What can be inferred from paragraph 3?A．Green urban food has drawn more attention.B．German rural areas will follow the trend too.C．Asia will join the Edible Cities Network soon.D．Edible cities hold meetings on a regular base.11．Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A．Start a Green Food Campaign NowB．Gain Easy Access to German FoodC．Quick Response to Climate ChangeD．An Incredible “Edible City” Initiative二、七选五How to Deal with a Roommate Who Is InconsiderateDoes your roommate borrow your stuff without asking, or leave dirty dishes in the sink for weeks? 12 , but don’t worry — by having an open, honest talk with him/her, you can find a solution and make your house a home again.Tackling the problem now will keep it from worsening in the background.It might seem easier to ignore your roommate’s problems for now. 13 . Ask your roommate to sit down and have a chat with you soon, or schedule a house meeting a few days in advance.Avoiding accusations (指责) will help you have a more productive conversation.14 . — you can be specific, but try not to attack or blame your roommate. That way, you two can have an open, honest discussion, rather than an argument.15 .Once you’ve said your piece about your living situation, take a step back and really listen to your roommate’s point of view. Try not to interrupt. If your roommate gets defensive or angry, try saying something like, “I understand you’re upset, but I’d really like us to make a change together.”If you both make the rules, your roommate is more likely to follow them.After you’ve both shared your issues, do some brainstorming together on what could be changed around your place. Keep an open mind and be willing to compromise (妥协，让步) so that everyone ends up happier. 16 .A．Spending time together is necessaryB．It’s bad manners to criticize your roommateC．Bring up whatever is bothering you carefullyD．However, it’s better to face these things head-onE．Give him/her time to talk so he/she doesn’t feel attackedF．The rules you make together are more persuasive for your roommateG．Living with an inconsiderate roommate might make you feel frustrated三、完形填空Stephanie distinctly remembered watching a basketball movie called “Like Mike” whendiscussing 18 and inclusion (包容).Over the course of a term, Stephanie did a weeks-long lesson about how our differences make us 19 , and how we shouldn’t judge people until we’ve “walked a mile in their shoes”. The movie helped 20 this message to her students’ real lives.Stephanie had her students measure their feet in class, design their own 21 on paper, and write journals about making 22 about others based on appearances. Since Stephanie collects athletic shoes as a sort of hobby, she began working behind the scenes to make the final lesson in her plan, something her students would never 23 .Without telling them, Stephanie 24 a pair of white sneakers (运动鞋) for every student in her class.

Some of them even cried. Each student decorated their 28 shoes with their own sense of style. They had fun making their shoes on their own, and the deeper 29 was not lost on them.As Stephanie put it, “Differences make everybody special!” This is such a(n) 30 way to teach kids the value of not judging others and creativity.

It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯）,but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.（8分）DMany people think of the brain as a mystery（神秘）．They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works．When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb（愚笨的）—and stays that way for life．But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it．And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn．Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time．That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise．And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink（萎缩）and you get weaker．That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise．Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells（神经细胞）．Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems．When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger．The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow．Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy．The result is a stronger and smarter brain．Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains．They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things．32．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is．B．A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle．C．Both muscles and the brain are important to humans．D．Intelligence exists in both humans and animals．33．By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat ．A．exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB．exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC．everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD．everyone should learn as many new things as possible34．Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need ．A．to be well taken care of B．a good communication between personsC．help from scientists D．our learning new things35．What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Strong B．Lovely C．Smart D．Active三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）6.（10分）How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that.

高二英语时间：100分总分：120分一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AMichael Jordan was born on February17,1963,in Brooklyn ,New York . Jordan is the fourth of the five children in his family .His family moved to North Carolina when he was just a baby .As a young boy , his favourite sport was baseball ,but soon he found that he could play basketball as well .At the age of 17, he began to show people just how talented (有天赋的)he really was .Throughout his basketball career (事业) , Michael Jordan has won many scoring titles (冠军) .many boys and girls look up to Michael Jordan as their hero .Do you know he was a hero ,too , when he was growing up ? He looks up to his older brother ,Larry , Michael Jordan , a basketball superstar , is not just a star on the basketball court .He also works hard to raise money for many children’s charities(慈善组织) .

England2.At first ,he played ______________ instead of basketball .A. footballB. baseballC. tennisD. volleyball3.Who was Michael Jordan’s hero when he was growing up ?A. LarryB. Bill GatesC. RonaldD. His father4.Michael Jordan often tried his best to raise money for ______________ .A. his hometownB. his schoolC. his coachD. many children’s charities .BIn 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century—most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719—but nobody wanted to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy（识字） rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared without the names of theauthors, often with something like “By a lady.”Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral, or just plain bad.In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters —from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim—were held up as moral touchstones. Today Dickens' greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon（名人堂）of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.How did Dickens get to the top？ For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass. Some 60, 000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of them. It's partly true that Dickens' style. of writing attracted audiences from all walks of life. It's partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress. But it's also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a singular writer. But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our own culture—to understand how he made himself a lasting one.5.Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century？A. They were difficult to understand.B. They were popular among the rich.C. They were seen as nearly worthless.D. They were written mostly by women.6.Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress________.A. his reputation in FranceB. his interest in modern artC. his success in publicationD. his importance in literature7.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text？A. To remember a great writer.B. To introduce an English novel.C. To encourage studies on culture.D. To promote values of the Victorian age.CMy First Marathon（马拉松）A month before my first marathon， one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks， leaving me only two weeks to train． Yet， I was determined to go ahead．I remember back to my 7th year in school． In my first P．E． class， the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball． I didnˈt do either well． He later informed me that I was" not athletic"．The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years．When I started running in my 30s，I realized running was a battle against myself， not about competition or whether or not I was athletic． It was all about the battle against my own body and mind． A test of wills!The night before my marathon， I dreamt that I couldnˈt even find the finish line． I woke up sweating and nervous， but ready to prove something to myself．Shortly after crossing the start line，my shoe laces （鞋带）became untied．So I stopped to readjust． Not the start I wanted！At mile 3， I passed a sign：" GO FOR IT， RUNNERS!"By mile 17， I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly． Despite the pain， I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again．By mile 21， I was starving！As I approached mile 23， I could see my wife waving a sign． She is my biggest fan． She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a．m． or questioned my expenses on running．I was one of the final runners to finish． But I finished! And I got a medal． In fact， I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had．Determined to be myself， move forward， free of shame and worldly labels（世俗标签）， I can now call myself a "marathon winner"．8. A month before the marathon，the author_____．A. was well trainedB. felt scaredC. made up his mind to runD. lost hope9.Why did the author mention the P．E．class in his 7th year？_____A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher．B. To amuse the readers with a funny story．C. To show he was not talented in sports．D. To share a precious memory．10.How was the authorˈs first marathon？_____A. He made it．B. He quit halfway．C. He got the first prize．D. He walked to the end．11.What does the story mainly tell us？_____A. A man owes his success to his family support．B. A winner is one with a great effort of will．C. Failure is the mother of success．D. One is never too old to learn．DMeasles（麻疹），which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more，was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine（疫苗）．But the disease is making a comeback，caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly．Already this year，115 measles cases have been reported in the USA，compared with 189 for all of last year．The numbers might sound small，but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend．When vaccination rates are very high，as they still are in the nation as a whole，everyone is protected．This is called"herd immunity"，which protects the people who get hurt easily，including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons，babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work．But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in．When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride，immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger．That's exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County，California，where 22 measles cases were reported this month，to Brooklyn，N．Y．，where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last yearThe resistance to vaccine has continued for decades，and it is driven by a real but very small risk．Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer．Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out（决定不参加）of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten．Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption（豁免），sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine．Now，several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out．But no onedoes enough to limit exemptions．Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons．But personal opinions？Not good enough．Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide，but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks．12.The first two paragraphs suggest that ______ ．A. a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB. the outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC. anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsD. information about measles spreads quickly13.Herd immunity works well when ______ ．A. exemptions are allowedB. several vaccines are used togetherC. the whole neighborhood is involved inD. new regulations are added to the state laws14.What is the main reason for the comeback of measles？______A. The overuse of vaccine．B. The lack of medical care．C. The features of measles itself．D. The vaccine opt-outs of some people．15.What is the purpose of the passage？______A. To introduce the idea of exemption．B. To discuss methods to cure measles．C. To stress the importance of vaccination．D. To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Ways to Improve Your HealthSometimes it may seem difficult to improve our health.
