This even was started by Jennifer Barlow of Midlothian, Virginia in 2003, and it is becoming more popular each year. It has been supported by the International Dark-Sky Association, the American Astronomical Society, and the Astronomical League.This even always occurs in April, during the week of the new moon so that the sky can be as dark as possible for the best viewing conditions.“It is my wish that people could see the night sky without other light in the sky as our ancestors (祖先) saw it hundreds of years ago,” explains Barlow.Since it only lasts a week and not everyone in the country will take part in it, how will the National Dark-Sky Week reduce light pollution? The main goal of NDSW is to increase awareness (意识) of the harmful effects of light pollution. It is not possible for all of the light pollution in this part of the world to disappear. However, it is possible to make a small difference in the quality of the night sky. Another goal of this even is to promote (促进) the use of better lighting systems that direct light toward the ground instead of up into the sky.Jennifer Barlow states, “The night sky is a gift of such beauty that it should not be polluted by wasted light. In this way, our children will not lose touch with the wonder of our universe.”11. This passage is mainly about ______________.A. better lighting systemsB. the beauty of the night skyC. the harm of light pollutionD. the National Dark-Sky Week12. Which of the following statements about the National Dark-Sky Week is WRONG?A. It is becoming more and more popular in America.B. The event was started in 2003 by Jennifer Barlow.C. The event takes place in the first week of every April.D. American people are supposed to turn off their lights during that week.13. What is Jennifer Barlow’s wish?A. That light would be directed up into the sky.B. That the sky would always be as dark as possible.C. That people could see the night sky without light pollution as our ancestors did.D. That people could spend time enjoying the beauty of the sky every night.14. We can infer from the underlined（划线的）sentence in Paragraph 4 that ____________.A. many people in America hate this eventB. it may be hard to reduce light pollutionC. the event should last a month every yearD. light will no longer pollute the sky soon15. What is the main goal of the National Dark-Sky Week?A. To promote the use of better lighting systems.B. To help people realize the harm of light pollution.C. To cause all the light pollution in America to disappear.D. To help young children enjoy the wonder of our universe.第三部分．完形填空（每题1.5分，共30分）“Mum, I want to make you a bet,” I said. “If I go a whole year without TV, will you give me a hundred dollars?”“Well, if you can ___16___do it, …”“Of course I can,” I replied, ___17___to convince myself.___18___, all this started from my ___19___of a picture in the newspaper.

高二英语下学期第二次周练试题

河北省保定市高阳中学学年高二春季版第二次周练英语试题第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AMy mom just bought me a new bike. Since my cousin Mary didn’t have a bike with her, she walked next to me. I thought that Mary would jump on the luggage carrier (行李架) over the back tire when I was riding. Mom knew exactly what I was thinking. “Don’t ride the bike with Mary on the back,” she said. “It’s too dangerous. You could kill yourself. Take turns.”I nodded, but I was thinking I could handle this. A few minutes later, I turned right to a wide road. “Jump on the back,” I told Mary. I rode fast, laughing as the wind blew through our hair. It was exciting, until the handlebar (车把) started shaking. The front tire dropped into a drain (下水道) and I fell off the bike, still holding the handlebar.My face, hands, and knees crashed into the pavement. The pain in my mouth was unbearable, and I tasted blood. I turned towards Mary who was on the ground, holding her knee and crying. Seconds later, it seemed that my mom’s car stopped next to us. I wanted Mom to say, “Oh, my poor sweetheart. Let me hug you and everything will be fine.”However, my mom only said, “What have you done to your face? Vanessa,look at what you’ve done!” Mom wasn’t the gentle “I love you, sweetie” type.Sometimes, I thought Mom had no mercy. But in her own way, she was holding me tighter than I could understand — she was teaching me the lesson I needed. “You did it — deal with it and learn from it. One day, the consequences (后果) will be greater and I won’t be there to help you. Think it out, Vanessa.”1. We can learn from the text that .A. Vanessa fell because she didn’t hold the handlebarB. Vanessa and Mary rode the bike by turnsC. Vanessa was blown down by the heavy windD. Vanessa and Mary were all injured2. In the author’s opinion, her mother .A. was always gentle to herB. encouraged her all the timeC. was cold sometimesD. didn’t care about her at all3. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Vanessa’s mother was strict with her.B. Vanessa understood her mother’s love.C. Vanessa’s mother would leave her.D. Vanessa wasn’t eager for her mom’s hug any more.BCARE London to Paris Cycle ChallengeIn this challenge you’ll cycle from London to Paris in three days, enjoying the beautiful countryside along the way.You will cycle through the peace of rural (乡村的) England to Portsmouth, where you will cross the river by boat to Ouistreham. The route then winds through peaceful lands and attractive villages, where you can taste fine French food before cycling to your final destination, Paris.Why join our London to Paris Cycle Challenge?This is a great way to get fit and experience the best of rural Europe with friends, colleagues or on your own as a personal challenge. The money you raise will support CARE’s work around the world. CARE works to help poor people lift themselves out of poverty (贫穷). For example, we support volunteers like Eugenia who travels by bike to distant towns near her home in Peru to make sure pregnant (怀孕的) women and new mothers receive medical care. Before, women were often left with little support or language barriers which meant medical care assistants could not communicate effectively with them. With local volunteers’ suppo rt, women living in remote areas can benefit from health services.What is included on the London to Paris Cycle Challenge?Guides, medicine and support staffThree nights’ accommodationMeals during the challenge, including a celebration meal on the final night in ParisBoat from Portsmouth to OuistrehamReturn from Paris to LondonThe minimum amount of the money you’ll have to collect for this challenge is £1,350, which includes your registration (注册) fee.

In 1985, two days before he died, he gave that ticket to Cave —ticket number 00001. “It created a fascination (酷爱) with the bridge that I have to this day,” says Cave. And it started him on a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge first.Cave came up with a simple but daring idea — lease (租用) the bridge from the government and allow ordinary people to climb Australia’s greatest icon. “I thought it would take two years,” says Cave, 63. “What appeared like a simple job turned into some very complex activities. But in business, you just have to keep going —it’s about having self-belief.” Indeed, it took him nine years and ten months to convince t he NSW government to allow his dream to be a reality. “Six years were wasted dealing with some very restrictive officials,” says Cave. They threw difficulty after difficulty in his path with doubts over the safety of the climbers and the motorists below — the list went on and on.Through it all, Cave held the ticket tightly. It was a constant reminder of why, to Cave, this fight wasworth winning. Finally, in 1995, came the breakthrough (突破) he’d worked for — a letter arrived from WorkCover, the state’s oc cupational health and safety insurer, backing his idea.Since opening on October 1, 1998, over 1.8 million people have climbed the 1,439 steps to the top of the bridge, making BridgeClimb a $50-million-a-year success and a major international tourist attraction.8. Cave at first thought his dream .A. was a hard taskB. was easy to come trueC. would get support from the governmentD. would become some complex activities9. What was the restrictive officials’ attitude towards Cave’s id ea?A. Cautious.B. Approving.C. Doubtful.D. Enthusiastic.10. What inspired Cave to fight for his dream during the hard situation?A. WorkCover.B. Harbour Bridge.C. BridgeClimb.D. Ticket 00001.11. The text mainly tells us that .A. not every dream in our life is very easy to come trueB. you should have self-belief even faced with great difficultyC. family members always give you the inspiration for successD. life seems a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge firstDA habitat is a natural area where wildlife lives undisturbed. Most animals and plants have become endangered not because they have been killed on purpose but because their habitats are being destroyed.Human activities have changed or destroyed habitats for thousands of years. The natural habitats in almost every country in the world have been affected in some way. Let us take Britain as an example. Nowadays most of the British countryside consists of fields of grass grown for cattle and sheep or crops for humans. If you had lived about a thousand years ago, the countryside would have looked very different for most of Britain was covered with forest.Now there are only small areas of woodland across the country, one of the largest areas being the New Forest in Hampshire. Throughout the centuries humans have steadily (持续地) cut down the trees to make room for the human population which has increased greatly particularly during the past 200 years or so. The trees have been replaced by houses, factories, schools, roads, farmland etc. Hedgerows (灌木篱笆) which were planted by humans as boundaries (边界) around fields have replaced woodlands.As you may imagine, the great loss of habitats has affected the wildlife that lives in them. Large animals such as the Brown Bear and the Auroch became extinct in Britain during the 10th century mainly due to destruction (粉碎) of their forest habitats. Other British species of animals and plants have become extinct during the last few hundred years and many more are endangered today. Although many organizations are working to protect wildlife, natural habitats are still being destroyed.12. The text mainly tells us .A. what a habitat isB. how to protect wildlifeC. habitat destruction makes animals endangeredD. how to prevent the environment from being destroyed13. According to the text, animals are endangered mainly because .A. people kill wild animals on purposeB. the environment is seriously pollutedC. humans haven’t worked to protect themD. the human population has increased greatly14. We can learn from the text that .A. the New Forest is the largest woodland in the worldB. the Brown Bear has been extinct for many years in BritainC. humans destroyed natural habitats mainly by growing cropsD. humans planted hedgerows to make home for cattle and sheep15. Which of the following may the writer agree with?A. Setting up reserves is the best way to protect animals.B. We can hardly stop animals from being endangered.C. Things will become better for wild animals in Britain.D. Human activities began to affect wildlife 200 years ago.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）按照短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

These were Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. The youngest sister, Anne, was also a gifted novelist, and her books have the same extraordinary, quality as her sisters'.Their father was Patrick Bronte born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldestchildren died, leaving the father to care for the remaining three girls and a boy.Charlotte was born in 1816. Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew up largely self-educated. Branwell showed a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn money for his arteducation. They took positions as teachers or taught children intheir homes.As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books, each with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriting. Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847, Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher (出版商), but there was no interest shown in Charlotte's book. (It was not published until 1869. ) However, one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her work. Jane Eyre was already started, and she hurriedly finished it.It was accepted at once；Thus each of the sisters bad a book published in 1847.Jane Eyre was immediately successful； The other two, however, did not do. so well. People did not like Wuthering Heights. They said it was too wild, too animal-like. But gradually it came to be considered one of the finest novels in the English language. Emily lived only a short while after the publication of her book, and Anne died in 1847.Charlotte published Shirley in 1849 and Villette in 1853. In 1854 she married Arthur Bell Nicholls. But only a year later, she died of tuberculosis (肺结核) as her sisters had.36. What did the Bronte sisters want to do for Branwell BronteA. Help him write stories.B. Help him get trained in art.C. Teach him how to draw well.D. Teach him how to educate himself.37. We know from the text that _____________________ .A. Jane Eyre was published in 1847B.

None of them lived longer than 40 years old.D. Emily was the least successful of the three.BHow could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectfulZoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting“things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animalsActually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.41．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos A．Dangerous. B．Unhappy. C．Natural. D．Easy.42．In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.A．remain in cages B．behave strangelyC．attack other animals D．enjoy moving around43．What does the author try to argue in the passageA．Zoos are not worth the public support.B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings.D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.44．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.A．pointing out the faults in what zoos doB．using evidence he has collected at zoosC．questioning the way animals are protectedD．discussing the advantages of natural habitats45．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agreethat __________.A．zoos have to keep animals in small cagesB．most animals in zoos are endangered speciesC．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoosD．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats单词拼写（共5小题，10分）46．She felt g________ about leaving her sick child and going to work. 47．Whenever I get into trouble, he comes to my help withouth______________.48．He was too s______________ to admit that he was wrong and refused to say sorry to his girl friend.49．I tried to p______________ him to change his mind but he refused to follow my advice.50．I am sorry that I was a______________ just now and didn’t quite catch what you said.姓名：班级：学号：得分：endangered big cats.

They have more money, more funding and better resources and they don’t have the more challenging students we get in the state sector.That was before I became a teacher-researcher in a two-year project led by my college, aiming to find the best way to support high-ability students. With funding from the London Schools Excellence Fund, we teamed up with some of the country’s top private schools, like Eton and St Paul’s, as well as a number of state schools, to find out how to bring the knowledge-rich learning that characterizes independent schools into the state sector.Before the project, I hadn’t had much contact with people who had been educated there. But the first thing I found when I visited was that teachers are the same. In the independent sector, they have challenges too—just different ones.After two years, our research project has produced a huge set of findings.One of the most useful findings was the importance of independent learning habits outside the classroom. I realized that although I was always telling students that they needed to do four to five hours of private study a week, they didn’t have a clear idea of what this could look like beyond making notes. So I set them different activities including reading articles, doing activities and completing examination questions.I started to put much more emphasis on activities outside the classroom, like researching topics beyond the syllabus(教学大纲) or discussing things in the news. And I praised anyone who asked questions in class, so we created a culture where students were proud to ask a question rather than seeing it as a way of flagging upthe fact that they hadn’t understood something.My research is beginning to have a real influence. My students now come to class and tell me what they want to know about. But they no longer expect me to do the research—they want to find out for themselves. At the end of the year I gave students a questionnaire on independent learning. One wrote, “Independent learning would limit the help I got from other students. It helps you to think for yourself.”4．What did the author say about independent school students before her research? A．They were troublemakers.B．They enjoyed excellent learning conditions.C．They performed worse than state school students.D．They faced the same challenges as state school students.5．Why did the author join the project?A．To introduce good learning methods to state schools.B．To exchange teaching ideas with other teachers.C．To partner with other schools in education.D．To find enough funds for state schools.6．What changes did the author make in her classes?A．She focused on group learning. B．She worked out a different syllabus. C．She encouraged independent learning. D．She carried out various activities in class.7．How is the author’s research going?A．It has made a big difference. B．It has failed to make progress.C．I t is questioned by her students. D．It involves many more students.CThe University of Birmingham is the first excellent UK Russell Group university to announce that it will accept the "Gaokao" exam for high-flying Chinese students wishing to join its undergraduate courses in 2019. High school students who complete the "National Higher Education Entrance Examination", or Gaokao, with top grades will be able to apply for direct entry onto Birmingham degree programmes without first completing a foundation year which is a routine for the freshman.Gaokao is usually taken by students in their last year of senior high school and, every year, each province in China sets the grades required to gain admission to its universities. It is usually held across China in early June. Students are tested in Chinese, Mathematics, a Foreign Language and social sciences or natural sciences.University of Birmingham Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir David Eastwood said: "The University of Birmingham has been challenging and developing great minds for more than a century. We welcome people from around the globe to study at Birmingham and Chinese students form an integral part of our education and research community. We are further opening access to Birmighamˈs wealth of education opportunities for the brightest and most dedicated Chinese students by accepting this strict and important qualification. I look forward to welcoming these high-flying students to the University of Birmingham. "Gaokao is increasingly accepted by universities in Australia, the USA, Canada and mainland Europe. Birmingham will only be considering high quality students who achieve a minimum 80% Gaokao score and meet additional academic and English language requirements.Professor J on Frampton, Director of the University of Birminghamˈs China Institute said: "The University of Birmingham has a long history of educating students from China and one of our most famous graduates is Li Siguang-the founding father of Chinese geology. I am delighted that the University is now accepting the Gaokao. This gives the brightest and best Chinese students an opportunity to move straight into the first year of our undergraduate programmes and experience the benefits of studying at a global Top 100 university, such as Birmingham. "8．What do Chinese students have to do to enter the University of Birmingham before 2019?A．Score over 80% of the universityˈs qualification examination.B．Prepare Birmingham degree programmes.C．Acquire the right to permanent residency.D．Go through a foundation year.9．Who is the announcement intended for?A．Chinese students.B．All people living in the UK.C．The students of the UK.D．The foreign students in China.10．Which of the following best explains "integral" underlined in paragraph 3? A．complete. B．indifferent.C．necessary. D．unimportant.11．What does the text mainly talk about?A．The introduction to the "Gaokao" of China.B．The University of Birminghamˈs admission to Gaokao.C．The high quality students accepted by top universities.D．The history of the University of Birmingham.DWould you BET on the future of this man? He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before?We’ve all known people who run out of steam before they reach life’s halfway mark. I’m not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can’t all get there. I’m talking about people who have stoppe d learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learnto bear with the things we can’t change. We lear n to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos(自我), whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.Many of us equate(视……等同于) “commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence—whether they are driving a truck, or running a store—make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They’ve learned life’s most valuable lesson.12．The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that ________.A．loss of freedom stimulates one’s creativityB．age is not a barrier to achieving on e’s goalC．misery inspires a man to fight against his fateD．disability cannot stop a man’s pursuit of success13．What could be inferred from Paragraph 4？A．Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.B．Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.C．Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.D．Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.14．What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？A．A tough man can tolerate suffering.B．A wise man can live without self-pity.C．A man should try to satisfy people around him.D．A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.15．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage？A．To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.B．To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.C．To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.D．To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.EIf you’re feeling empty, you’re not alone. Many of us feel empty in different ways. For instance, you might feel empty because something is missing in your life. Or the emptiness might stem from slowly abandoning yourselves, not listening to your own hopes and desires. Abandoning yourselves can also spark anxiety, depression, guilt and shame, 16．. Here are several suggestions to help you out.Acknowledge the emptiness. If you're experiencing emptiness that's more like a gaping hole, acknowledge it, and be gentle with yourself. 17． If this emptiness is because of a loved one's passing, get angry with yourself. In that case you learn to live life alongside that hole of missing that person.Explore your feelings of emptiness. Scientists suggested exploring the below questions. We can do this while journaling, taking a walk or drinking a cup of tea.●Do I tell myself positive things?●What am I trying to prove or win?●18．●Am I blaming myself for things that are out of my control?19． Fight the urge to turn to the outside world for fulfillment. Instead of trying to fill the emptiness with drugs, alcohol, TV, computer games or anything else, look within, and spend time with yourself. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but the more you practice devoting time and energy to yourself and caring for yourself, the less present those empty feelings, will be.20．Whether you are experiencing difficult relationships, losses, or feeling a lack of purpose or mining, you are worthy of a fulfilling and meaningful life. A．Explore your current feelings.B．Spend with yourself every day.C．How do you handle your emptiness?D．Den t heat yourself up for feeling this way.E. Have I been judging myself or comparing myself to others?F. It's important to acknowledge and accept your feelings of emptiness.G. Do you too much time on TV, computer games or anything else?二、完形填空（一共40小题，每小题1.5分，总计60分）AThe Value of EducationI have just started my job as an English Language Assistant in the Parisian suburbs.I was 21 by how rich Paris really is. The 22 of the buildings and the large amount of luxurious(豪华的)monuments completely 23 the city's rich reputation.I was also very surprised at how 24 the suburbs are: in the UK, traditionally, the suburbs are the 25 part of a city，but here it is the complete opposite.The schools that I 26 in are located just outside of Paris and are not as 27 as the ones in the centre of the city. However, the 28 here are so eager to learn my language.For my first lesson I 29 some postcards and souvenirs to 30 my pupils what my hometown is like in the UK. They were so 31 by my postcard of my town's 32 and my souvenir of the Welsh dragon. For us in the UK, a postcard of a castle is not necessarily the most exciting thing but, for these pupils it 33 real-life magic and mystery. I realized that in their suburb there are no castles or famous monuments. All those things 34 to Paris.One of the teachers told me that despite the 35 that these children live only four kilometers from Paris, some of them have never been there throughout their entire lives. I 36 a chance for them to discover another world.I never 37 , until my job in France, just how 38 education really is.

There would never be enough money to send Mary to college. 47 , no member of her family had ever gone to college. But Mary 48 that thought. In secondary school she studied hard, and spoke 49 of her dream to teachers and friends. When her 50 day at school came, her principal (校长) called her into his office.“I have a(n) 51 for you,” he said.It contained a scholarship to a nearby college. The power of a thought had 52its first dividend (红利). But the scholarship could cover only part of her college 53 . Mary took every part-time job she could find.Mary’s dream came true when she graduated from college. Then she too k a coursein insurance. When she 54 herself to a local insurance company for a job, she was 55 . She applied again. The answer was no.

2021年春期高二第二次周考英语试题第二局部阅读理解(lǐjiě)〔一共两节，满分是40分〕第一节〔一共15小题(xiǎo tí)，每一小题2分，一共30分〕AMost students spend their school days sitting at desks learning. Aurelious Woolfolk, however, does a lot more than sit at a desk when he is in school. He scrambles up high ladders, walks down the sides of buildings, and rides in a fire engine. He is learning to be a firefighter at the New Haven Fire Academy.Woolfolk and 28 other students are currently learning what it takes to become a firefighter. Classes at the fire academy, which is in Connecticut, last for about 22 weeks. For two days each week, the students sit in a classroom to learn science, math, and emergency medicine. They learn the science of fires, how to calculate water pressure, and how to treat medical emergencies. During the other three days, the students go outside and learn how to hook hoses to fire hydrants(消防栓), climb buildings, rescue people trapped in burning buildings, and many other things.“Firefighters have to know lots of different things,〞 said Pablo Menendez, an instructor at the school. “We have to treat medical emergencies, know how to handle dangerous chemicals, and rescue people who have fallen from cliffs.〞Teamwork is one of the most important lessons students learn at the school. “Work ing together saves lives,〞 said Capt. William Seward, the director of the academy. “Students need to learn that they are part of a team.〞Fighting fires is not easy. The suits and equipment a firefighter wears weigh about 40 pounds.Firefighters are very busy. In New Haven, they respond to32,000 emergency calls a year Each time firefighters go out, they know they might not come back. Across the United States about 100 firefighters die each year. “That’s why the lessons learned here at the academy are so imp ortant,〞said Seward. “What they learn here can save their lives.〞Firefighters know how dangerous their jobs are. Their training helps them overcome their heights and fires. “When you’re up there on the ladder looking down, it’s scary,〞 said one student. “To do this job, you’ve got to wipe out the fear.〞Firefighters overcome their fear for one reason. “I wanted to help other people,〞said Leah Harwin. “I think it is important to help other people whenever you can.〞21．According to the passage, which activity must a student at the Fire Academy complete?A. handling dangerous chemicalsB. swimming under pressureC. jumping from a buildingD. sitting in the classroom22．Why is it important for students at the Fire Academy to have lessons inside and outside the classroom?A. Firefighters need to practice emotional skills to calm people down.B. Firefighters need to practice mental and physical skills to succeed.C. Firefighters need to practice wearing heavy gear to get used to the weight.D. Firefighters need to practice climbing a ladder to overcome a fear of height23．What is the purpose of the passage?A. to describe the activities at the New Haven Fire AcademyB. to inform the reader of the dangers of being a firefighterC .to compare the New Haven Fire Academy to public schoolD. to force students to attend the New Haven Fire AcademyBSome colors people see late at night could cause signs of clinical(临床(lín chuánɡ)的)depression(沮丧). That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals(个人) who live or work in low levels of light overnight(整夜) can develop clinical depression. Doctors use the word “clinical depression〞to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide.In the new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠(cānɡ shǔ))to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and are active at night.The animals were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light, a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front of a red light.After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.Randy Nelson heads the Department of Neuroscience at Ohio State University. He says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. “What we saw is that these animals didn’t show any sleep uneasiness(不安(bù ān)) at all but they did mess up biological clock genes a nd they did show depressive sign while if they were in the dim(微弱)red light, they did not.〞Randy Nelson notes that photosensitive(感光(gǎn guāng))cells in the eyes have little to do with eyesight. He says these cells send signals to the area of the brain that controls what has been called the natural sleep-wake cycle.He says there’s a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.24．Researchers use hamsters in the experiment because __________.A.they are similar to humans in dealing with colorsB.they are easy to observe and studyC.they are sensitive to colors like human beingsD.they are active at night and sleep during the day25．What sign shows that the hamsters are being depressed?A.They drink less sugary water.B.They don’t sleep well.C.Their eyesight becomes worse.D.Their energy level becomes low.26．__________ tends to cause hamsters to be depressed.27．What can help people who work late at night to avoid being depressed?A.Not being exposed to dim red light when using computers.B.Equipping their computer screens to put it more in the reddish light.C.Living or working in low levels of light overnight.D.Going to see doctors of clinical depression regularly for help.CAlmost all theme park accidents can be prevented. Here, based on coverage of theme park safety, are some tips to help you and your family stay safe on your next visit.If you are visiting with a child, take a moment to explain the ride to them,and tell them how they should behave. They are depending upon you to keep them safe. Set a good example for them by following the rules of the park, and make sure that they know you expect them to follow those rules, too.Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar or put their hands in the laps, and not to stick their knees and feet outside a ride vehicle. Make them look to you for the okay to get on or off a ride, too. And never put a crying child on a ride. If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your child is calmed. Or, gently exit the queue and find something more relaxing to do.Young kids can’t keep an adult’s pace in a theme park. Let them take plenty of breaks.“Kids get tired,〞 said TPI reader Matt Johnson, a father of four. “Tired kids make parents even more tired. And tired kids and parents may get hurt —physically and emotionally.〞He advises that parents plan a mid-day break, perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-day heat an d crowds. “You will see cranky families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and having a great evening.〞28. The second paragraph tells readers that ________.A. children should be trained to be more independentB. adults should tell children some safety rules firstlyC. adults should set a good example to behave well in a theme parkD. there is a danger to take young children to visit a theme park29. Which of the following is NOT right for children who are taking the rides?A. They cannot put their hands away from the grab bar.B. They are forbidden to put their knees or feet out.C. They should ask adults’ permission first to get on a ride.D. Without adults’ okay sign, children shouldn’t get off a ride.30. If your child begins to cry just when he is going to take a ride, you should ________.A. tell him to be relaxedB. make him share your interestC. give up the present activityD. encourage him to be brave31. We may infer from Matt Johnson’s words that ________.A. he doesn’t like to visit a theme park with his childrenB. parents with many children may be tired of visiting a theme parkC. not all the families are relaxed or happy when they visit a theme parkD. visitors should arrange everything carefully before startingDWhat will power your house in the future？Nuclear，wind，or solar power？According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US，it might be leaves — but artificial (人造(rénzào)的) ones.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis (光用)．Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts (催化剂)．Similar to natural leaves，it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell，which uses those two materials to produce electricity，located either on top of a house or beside the house.Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card，scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries. “One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology,〞said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.The artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf，by contrast，is made of cheap materials，easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies，Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype (原型(yuánxíng)) could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera's recent discovery of several powerful，new and inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now，the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides，the device can run in whatever water is available；that is，it doesn't need pure water. This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.With the goal to “make each home its own power station〞and “give energy to the poor〞，scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries，especially in India and rural China.32. What does the underlined word “imitate〞 in Paragraph 2 mean?A. produceB. holdC. preventD. copy33.Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is usedto produce electricity?a．artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenb．the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellc．the artificial leaves are put in waterd．the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityA．c，a，b，d B．c，b，a，dC．b，c，a，d D．c，a，d，b34.The purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to________.A．build up more power stations in the worldB．provide cheaper energy for developing countriesC．offer people in developing countries access to pure waterD．gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process35.The main idea of this passage is ________.A．an introduction to the history of artificial leavesB．a mixture of water power and solar energyC．giving energy to the poorD．an invention copying photosynthesis第二节七选五〔一共(yīgòng)5题每一小题2分一共10分〕How to FocusImproving your focus can make you a better student or employee as well as a happier and more organized person. If you want to improve your focus, you need to learn to avoid distractions and to be prepared with a focus-filled game plan before you set out to accomplish a task. 361. Build up your focus stamina(耐力(nai lì)). Each person may start off with a certain amount of “focus stamina〞but this is something that can be improved over time. To build your focus stamina, just give yourself a certainamount of time to do nothing but work on a certain task. 37 It may be just another five minutes or another half hour.2. Meditate. Meditating is more than a great way to relax. 38 When you meditate, you’ll be focusing on clearing your head and concentrating on your body and breath. You can easily transfer these skills to clearing your head and focusing on the work ahead of you.3. Read more.39 Try reading something without stopping for just thirty minutes, and slowly build your stamina to reading for an hour or even two hours with only short breaks. Being able to focus on the material in front of you will help you learn to focus on your work.4. Multi-task less. 40However, it is actually harmful to your concentration. When you multi-task, you’re not putting a ll of your focus and energy into any one task, which actually harms your concentration. Work on getting just one thing done at a time and you’ll see that you get this done more quickly. Chatting with your friends online while, getting work done is one of the worst forms of multi-tasking. Chatting with a friend can slow your productivity down by half.A. Reading is a great way to build up your focus.B. If you want to know how to focus like a laser, just follow these steps!C. Keep going until you feel you need to stop, and try to focus for longer the next day.D. When that time passes, see how long you can keep going before actually stopping.E. Many people think getting two or three things done at once is a great way to accomplish goals more quickly.F. Did you waste your whole day reading random articles that people postedon Facebook?G. If you meditate for just 10 to 20 minutes every day, you will slowly improve your focus.第三(dì sān)局部第一节完形填空〔每一小(yī xiǎo)题1.5分〕Disneyland opened on July 17, 1955 and instantly became the world’s most recognizable and popular theme park.

“aha！” moment regarding handwriting.I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task.It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting，and then I realized whose it must be.I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year，maybe two，and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal，friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails.There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters，and we recognized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.As a child visiting my father’s office，I was pleased to recognize，in little notes on the desks of his staff，the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”．All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting，a book by Florey.She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well，but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen.I don’t buy it.I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive，personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.For many a biographer，part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16thcentury Italy.That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings.However，they have worked in many school systems.1．Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting?A．He had worked with his colleague long enough.B．His colleague’s handwriting was so beautiful.C．His colleague’s handwriting was so terrible.D．He still had a lot of work to do.2．People working together in an office used to ________.A．talk more about handwriting B．take more notes on workdaysC．know better one another’s handwriting D．communicate better with one another3．The author’s father wrote notes in pen ________.A．to both his family and his staff B．to his family in small lettersC．to his family on the fridge D．to his staff on the desk4．According to the author，handwritten notes ________.A．are harder to teach in schools B．attract more attentionC．are used only between friends D．carry more message Ⅳ.阅读填空The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June，followed by summervacation.__1__Because long ago，young people had to help their families harvest the summer crops.At least this is what people today may think._2__A recent report from an education policy center at Indiana University explored the historical roots of the traditional school calendar.In the early days of the United States，children were not required to attend school.School calendars depended on local needs.__3__They worked on family farms during the other months.City schools were often open much longer，some for eleven months of the year.After the Civil War，more and more people saw the need for a system of required education._4__Many city schools wanted a shorter year and a longer summer break.The schools were often crowded.There was no modern air conditioning.Hot days would make it difficult to learn.Many rural educators，however，pushed for a longer school year.They thought it would keep children safe from industrial dangers when there were few child-labor laws.So the traditional school calendar was a compromise(折中)．The average school year used to be one hundred and seventy days.Times have not changed much.__5__But some experts think the traditional school calendar needs to change because the needs of the nation have changed.This thinking has led some schools to keep students in classlonger.A．Why such a long break?B．Today the common average is one hundred and eighty days.C．Americans think highly of their traditional school calendar.D．Most schools had similar school calendars.E．But the reason has more to it.F．Students in rural areas went to school for no more than six months of the year.G．But they had different ideas for the calendar.答案：Ⅰ.语境填词1． accent.2． subway3． queued4． confused5． remarks6． steadily7． omit8． structureⅡ.选词填空1．Compared_to/with2．

They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be __40__ for us.But there is more to books and writing than this.

Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of __ 44__. When we read or write something, we do much more than simple look at words on a page.

When weread __47__ realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we __48__ that we are real and they are __49__. It sounds __50__ , but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and __51__ about the causes and effects ofwhat a character does. We help the writer by __52__ that what we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our__53__ when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose __54__ in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next.

"Those who stand still, die," is one of Oliveira's favorite phrases. He knows from experience what it means, as the Portuguese film director has reached the age of 102 and is still active in his profession. Every year, Oliveira shoots a film and is currently working on his next project. "You have to work, work, work in order to forget that death is not far away," he said. When asked about his age, Oliveira said with some humility: "It's down to mother nature. It gave to me what it took from others."Being both mentally and physically fit in old age is partly a matter of luck, but it also has something to do with character. Not every white-haired person is wise and social skills, openness and the ability to train the brain are essential for senior citizens.Along with the architect Oscar Niemeyer (103), Nobel laureate Montalcini (101) and director Kurt Maetzig (100), Oliveira is one of those people of whom it would be very wrong to think as members of a listless elderly generation.Another master in his profession is the architect Oscar Niemeyer. The 103-year-old Brazilian is best known for his futuristic-looking buildings in Brasilia, but he also speaks out on behalf of the poor. "The role of the architect is to struggle for a better world where we can develop a form of architecture that serves everyone and not just a privileged few," said Niemeyer recently. He spends almost every day working in his office in Copacabana, and even when he falls ill he keeps working on ideas: After a gallbladder (胆囊) operation he composed a samba tune (桑巴舞曲) in the clinic.Another man who could sing a song about age is 107-year-old Heesters. The Dutch-born opera singer spent most of his life performing in Germany, where he still works. Recently Heesters said: "I want to be at least 108-years-old." He also plans to keep performing. "Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?" Heesters has not given up trying to add to his tally of awards and is looking for a "good stage role".Italian scientist Rita Levi-Montalcini, who is 101-year-old and is still active in medical science, has described the force that keeps driving her on: "Progress is created through imperfection." In 1986 she and her lab colleague were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. She's convinced that humans grow on challenges.With so many brilliant examples given, we can see clearly that age is no barrier to some high achievers.26. From the first two paragraphs, we can see ______.A. being active at 102 is achievable for everybodyB. Oliveira owes his long life to his mother’s helpC. being fit in old age is a matter of luck and characterD. social skills and wisdom are difficult for the senior27. How many centenarians are mentioned in this passage?A. 4B. 5C. 6D. 728. By saying "Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?” in Paragraph 5, Heesters shows us he ________.A. wants to sit or lie in comfortB. is waiting for people to pick him upC. is willing to work till he diesD. prefers to give performance at home29. In the passage so many examples were given to show ________.A. old age is a big problem if you want to succeedB. as a senior citizen, you have to be open-minded and optimisticC. old people should never think of themselves as oldD. old age can not prevent a great person from achieving a lot30. In the writer’s opinion, the architect Oscar Nie mey er is not ________.A. intelligentB. pessimisticC. positiveD. diligentCThe Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence —other countries might learn from its mistakes.For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. Then whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.Nauru's real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip-mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem — their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was almost financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.31. What might be the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To seek help for Nauru's problems.B. To give a warning to other countriesC. To show the importance of moneyD. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.32. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?A. Rich and powerfulB. Modern and openC. Peaceful and attractiveD. Greedy and aggressive33. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from ________.A. soil pollutionB. phosphate overminingC. farming activityD. whale hunting34. Which of the following was a cause of Nauru's financial problem?A. Its leaders misused the moneyB. It spent too much repairing the islandC. Its phosphate mining cost much moneyD. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.35. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.B. The leaders will take the experts' words seriously.C. The island was abandoned by the NauruansD. The phosphate mines were destroyed.1-5 A D C B D 6-10 C A C B C 11-15 B C A D D 16-20 B A D B A 21-25 A B D C C 26-30 C B C D B 31-35 B C B A A。

An official reportC. An exhibition guide.D. An art show review.BA typical lion tamer（驯兽师）in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip( 鞭) at a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’ the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion bees confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight., start a business, travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing,. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have som ewhere you want to go, something you want to acplish, someone you want to bee…take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.4. Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To get ready for a fight.B. To entertain the audience.C. To trick the lionD. To show off his skills..5. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They have to do something for showB. They find it hard to make changes.C. They hold on to the wrong things.D. They feel puzzled over choices.6. When the world is “ waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to _____A. make a quick decisionB. wait for a better chanceC. break your old habitsD. ask for clear guidance7. What is the author’s attitude towards the expert mentioned in Paragraph3?A. Respectful.B. Supportive.C. Tolerant.D. Doubtful.CAs more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational , Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations —UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Centre Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethno linguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raisinga family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India , Nepal, Bhutan, and China . But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of importantmaterials-including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded –the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project —Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stories around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of munities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech munities.8.
