四川省棠湖中学2020-2021学年高二上学期开学考试英语试题一、阅读选择1.One of the latest trends in American childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair is Stamford, Conn., for example, has got increasing numbers of requests for Chinese au pairs from zero to around 4,000 since 2004. And that's true all across the country."I thought it would be very useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age," Joseph Stocke, the managing director of a company, says of his 2-year-old son. "I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future." After only six months of being cared for by a 25-year-old woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China: She didn't want her children to miss out on their roots. "Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to the language and culture," she says."Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom," says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of children. "But parents must understand that just one year with an au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12."The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.（1）What does the term "au pair" in the text mean?A.A mother raising her children on her own.B.A child learning a foreign language at home.C.A professor in language education of children.D.A young foreign woman taking care of children.（2）Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them ________.A.to live in China some dayB.to speak the language at homeC.to catch up with other childrenD.to learn about the Chinese culture（3）What can we infer from the text?A.Learning Chinese is becoming popular in America.cated women do better in looking after children.C.Chinese au pairs need to improve their English skills.D.Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.2.l became a magician by accident. When I was nine years old, I learned how to make a coin disappear. I'd read The Lord of the Rings and ventured into the adult section of the library to search for a book of spells—nine being that curious age at which you're old enough to work through more than 1,200 pages of fantasy literature but young enough to still hold out hope that you might find a book of real, actual magic in the library. The book I found instead taught basic sleight-of-hand technique, and I dedicated the next months to practice.At first the magic wasn't any good. At first it wasn't even magic; it was just a trick—a bad trick. I spent hours each day in the bathroom running through the secret moves in front of the mirror. I dropped the coin over and over, a thousand times in a day, and after two weeks of this my mom got a carpet from the hardware store and placed it under the mirror to muffle the sound of the coin falling again and again.I had heard my dad work through passages of new music on the piano, so I knew how to practice—slowly, deliberately, going for precision rather than speed. One day I tried the illusion in the mirror and the coin vanished. It did not look like a magic trick. It looked like a miracle.One of the lessons you learn very early on as a magician is that the most amazing part of a trick has nothing to do with the secret. The secret is simple and often dull: a hidden piece of tape, a small mirror, a duplicate playing card, diversion of the audience's attention. In this case, the secret was a series of covert（暗中的）technique to hide the coin behind my hand in the act of opening it, a dance of the fingers that I learned so completely I didn't even have to think. I would close my hand, then open it, and the coin would vanish not by skill but by real magic.（1）What book did the author intend to find in the library when he was nine years old?A.A book teaching people how to make a coin disappear.B.A book of real magic.C.A book on how to become a magician.D.The second book of The Lord of the Rings.（2）The underlined word "muffle" probably means ________.A.cleanB.punishC.killD.lower（3）What did the author learn from his dad playing the piano?A.Practice makes perfect.B.Without music, life is of no value.C.Great liars are also great magicians.D.No pains, no gains.（4）Which of the following is not mentioned as a magician trick?A.Carrying out skillful hand moves.B.Hiding some stage tools inside the coat.ing real magic to create miracles.D.Guiding the audience to focus on something unimportant.3. You'll soon be 84 years old，Dad，and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together．You know，there was a time when we were not only separated by the generation gap but completely po larized （对立） by it．Split by：age and experience，opinions，hairstyles，cosmetics，clothing and boys．The Father-Daughter Duel（冲突） of 54 shifted into high gear（白热化） when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the54 Chevy whether you liked it or not．The police officer who accompanied me home after y ou reported the Chevy stolen late one evening was too young to understand father-daughter politics and too old to have much tolerance for a 16-year-old．You were so decent about it，Dad，and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life．Our relationship improved greatly when I had babies．I didn't know what to expect of you a nd Mom as grandparents but I didn't have to wait long to find out．Those babies adored you then just as they adore you now．I suppose I saw our relationship as aging together，rather like a fine wine．But the oddest thing happened last week．I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car．It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and frail behind the wheel of that huge car．It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere．Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day．Fifty years ago this spring，we planted kohlrabi together in a garden in Charles City，Iowa．This week，we'll plant kohlrabi together again，perhaps for the last time but I hope not．I don't understand why planting kohlrabi with you i s so important to me but it is．I don't even like kohlrabi…but I like planting it with you．Honoring a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home a paycheck，shares a dinner table，and attends school graduation and weddings．It's more about unconditionally loving children who are stubborn，who know everything and won't listen to anyone．It's about loving someone more than wor ds can say，and wishing that it never had to end．I love you，Dad．（1） What is the purpose of the third paragraph？________A.To prove that the father is very strict．B.To describe the father-daughter politics．C.To show the conflict between the author and her father．D.To condemn the policeman for lack of understanding．（2）What does the author mean by saying "a slap in the face" in the fifth paragraph？________A.She regretted the fights she had with her father．B.She suddenly realized that her father was so old and could be gone one day．C.She was ashamed of herself that she hadn't taken good care of her father．D.She suddenly realized that she had caused a lot of trouble for her father．（3）Which of the following words can describe the author's father？________a.

He has autism (自闭症). In theory, the vision statement is a lovely idea — an opportunity for parents to express the future they plan for their child five years down the road. In reality, as Ethan grew up and his limitations became clearer, I found it harder every year to write the short paragraph.This year, as Ethan completed his final year in the school system, we signed Ethan up to work at a local farm that employs young adults with disabilities assuming it would go the way he always has. He’d be interested at first, then bored, and then — because he was bored — silly and unsafe around the equipment in a way that would get him removed from the program. It was his pattern and if there’s anything we’ve learned, autistic kids love repeating their patterns.Surprisingly, after a year, we were told he’d made it onto a landscaping team. “What do you do in the team?” we asked. Eth an listed a few machines we assumed he was watching other people operate. We’ve lived with Ethan for 21 years. We know his limitations.At our last meeting for the vision statement, a man from the farm read a report on Ethan. Ethan was operating those machines, safely and effectively, along with the final line: “Ethan makes us laugh every day.” I could hardly believe it.Ethan wrote his own vision statement this year. He read it aloud:“I plan to work at Prospect Meadow Farm until I retire and live. at home with my family aslong as I can. My goals for the future are to learn how to drive a lawn mower (割草机).”I had tears in my eyes. Not simply because Ethan had made his own entirely reasonable vision statement, but because it involved the part of his present life that brings him joy. After years of making up visions for a future we never honestly thought possible, Ethan was offering one that was both hopeful and extremely simple: I want my life to keep looking the way it does NOW. 4．How did the author feel about writing a vision statement for her son?A．It was difficult.B．It was boring.C．It was annoying.D．It was embarrassing.5．Why does the author mention Ethan’s pattern in paragraph 2?A．To show her concern for Ethan’s safety.B．To show her familiarity with autistic kids.C．To show her low expectations for Ethan’s farm job.D．To show her special responsibility as Ethan’s parent.6．How did Ethan behave on the farm?A．He went beyond his limits.B．He made silly mistakes.C．He liked watching others working.D．He could hardly get along with others.7．Which statement will the author probably agree with?A．Success is built on failure.B．Never lose faith in your high goals.C．Family support helps to develop confidence.D．The future should look like the best parts of the present.OpenAI has introduced Sora, an advanced Al model designed to make videos from written descriptions or pictures. This represents OpenAI’s move into the video creation area, joining other leading companies and new businesses. Sora stands out by making high-quality videos that can show complex scenes with many characters, different movements, and detailed backgrounds. It can also improve existing videos by filling in missing parts, showing its strong grasp of language and understanding of the real world.Sora can make videos in a variety of styles, including photorealistic and cartoon, lasting up to a minute-much longer than what is typically possible with current text-to-video technology. Demonstrations by OpenAI show Sora’s ability to produce videos that tell clear stories and show deep emotions, avoiding typical mistakes made by AI. However, even with its advanced features, Sora has its challenges. It may have trouble mimicking (模仿) the natural laws of complex scenes or showing actions and their outcomes correctly, like a cookie not having a bite mark.Aware of the risks of misuse, OpenAI bas not released Sora for general use. The organization stresses the need for careful development and use of AI, aiming to stop negative uses. For this, OpenAI is looking into ways to verify videos made by Sora and is talking with lawmakers, teachers, and artists to address concerns and find positive ways to use the technology.As Sora marks a significant improvement in AI-made video technology, OpenAI is dedicated to developing it safely and ethically. The company recognizes the difficulty in predicting all the ways such technology might be used or misused, highlighting the value of learning from actual use to develop safer AI systems over time.8．What does the term “photorealistic” most closely mean in the context of the article?A．Art-like B．Life-like C．Abstract D．Simplistic 9．According to the article, what typical AI mistakes is Sora able to avoid when generating videos?A．Producing excessively long videos.B．Creating videos with a singular style.C．Making common AI errors.D．Generating videos without any storyline. 10．What is the primary reason OpenAI has not made Sora publicly available, based on the article?A．The technology is not yet perfected.B．Concerns over potential dangers.C．The video quality does not meet standards D．The cost of video production is too high 11．What is the author’s attitude towards Sora?A．Objective.B．Doubtful.C．Negative.D．Critical.Microplastics, as the name implies, are tiny plastic particles found in the environment. Any plastic particle that has a diameter of less than 5 mm is considered to be microplastic. For a long time, a majority of people were unaware of the presence of microplastics and their effects on the environment. However, these particles have become a significant topic of debate in recent times after researchers noted their presence in almost every corner of the globe. from Mount Everest tothe Mariana Trench.There are two categories of microplastics: primary and secondary. Primary microplastics are tiny particles meant for external commercial use such as cosmetics, as well as microfibers to make other textiles, such as fishing nets. Secondary microplastics are particles that result from the breakdown of larger plastic items, such as water bottles.There are various sources of microplastics. Wastewater treatment plants and sewage treatment plants are the major sources of primary microplastics, most of which are residues (残留物) of cosmetics, paint, household and industrial waste. Single-use plastics plastic items meant to be used just once and then discarded, such as a straw — are the main source of secondary plastics in the environment.The problem with microplastics is that like plastic items of any size they do not readily break down into harmless molecules. Plastics can take hundreds or thousands of years to decompose (降解). That means once produced, we cannot get rid of them. Microplastics exist on beaches and deeper waters, and have been detected in marine organisms from plankton to whales, in commercial seafood, and even in drinking water. They are mistaken for food by marine animals and some plastics are so tiny that they end up in the animal tissues. They are passed across the food chain, and some find their way to humans.Scientists are still unsure whether consumed microplastics are harmful to human or animal health and if so, what specific dangers they may pose. Even so, many countries are taking action to reduce microplastics in the environment. The best approaches to controlling microplastics include proper handling of plastics and thorough treatment of wastewater.12．According to the first two paragraphs, microplastics are_________A．common in our daily lifeB．used to make glass bottlesC．found in all the uninhabited areasD．tiny plastic particles with a diameter of 5mm13．What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A．The use of straws should be forbidden.B．Household waste contains microplastics.C．Industrial waste is a source of secondary plasticsD．Wastewater and sewage treatment plants are useless.14．Why do microplastics end up in the tissues of marine animals?A．Because they’re consumed as food.B．Because they exist on the beaches.C．Because they easily break down.D．Because they’re left out in the food chain.15．What’s the purpose of the text?A．To analyze the sources of microplastics.B．To warn people of the danger of microplastics.C．To give an overall introduction to microplastics.D．To persuade people to give up the use of microplastics.We generally have goals over the course of a day or week, and can check them off our lists with little difficulty. 16 What if we have goals set for us by our boss that we need to achieve but just can’t seem to get to? What if you’ve procrastinated (拖延) too long on your goals and now you don’t even know where to start?* Define the goalIdentifying the goal and deciding if it is still possible to do it is the first step. 17 There may be circumstances that prevented you from getting it done. Or maybe some other reason that needs to be addressed. Don’t waste time being hard on yourself. Just start where you are now and see what you can do from this point onward.* 18Begin with prioritizing the steps you’ll need to develop a reliable plan. Gathering the tools or skills you will need is a good place to start. Remember to ask for clarity if there is something standing in the way of understanding the project. Write out a schedule to ensure you are using your time and energy in a way that will work for you.* Establish new habits19 Make steps toward progress every day to keep going. Rewards may strengthen your efforts. Internal rewards might include feeling good about yourself, less stress, and accountability. Some examples of external rewards could be that you get paid for the job orreceive some recognition for the work you’ve done.* Take actionBecome a doer by removing excuses and making a committed decision to attain your goal. Breaking your tasks down to individual steps can help you stay focused on the process. But with all of your planning, education, tools, and instructors, the bottom line is you have to find a way to get going and do it. 20 And what you learn along the way might just surprise you. A．Make a new planB．Reassess your directionC．Then ask yourself why you didn’t do it.D．Some are short-term and are achieved quickly and easily.E．If you really want to achieve your goals, there’s no replacement for action.F．But what about the bigger goals we don’t really want to do in the first place?G．Forming a habit requires repetition of the desired new action over a period of time.二、完形填空Krista Sheneman was diagnosed with diabetes (糖尿病) around five years ago.

One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer． This was one more weapon for herto defeat my strange problem ﹣ inability to read．In the library, I found my way into the "Children's Room．" I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random． The cover of a book caught my eye． It presented a picture of a beagle． I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child． He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him． I never forgot my beagle．There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog． I ran myfingers over the picture of the dog on the cover． My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan． Unknowingly, I had read the title． Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer．Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos． I read very, very slowly with difficulty． Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from hisfamily and who finally found his way back home． That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book． At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together．My mother's call returned me to the real world． I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book． Everyone knew I could not read． But I had read it． Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them．I never told my mother about my "miraculous" （奇迹般地） experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year． And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction． The power of the words has held．（1）The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to________．A help cure him of his reading problemB let him spend a meaningfulsummer C encourage him to do more walking D make him learn more about weapons．（2）The book caught the author's eye because________．A it contained pretty pictures of animalsB he found its title easy to understandC it reminded him of his own dogD he liked children's stories very much．（3）Why could the author manage to read the book through？________A He was forced by his mother to read it．B He identified with the story in the book．C The book told the story of his pet dog．D The happy ending of the story attracted him．．（4）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？________A The author has had happy summers ever since．B The author's mother read the same book．C The author's mother rewarded him with books．D The author has become a successful writer．．（5）Which one could be the best title of the passage？________A My Passion for ReadingB Mum's Strict OrderC Reunion with MyBeagle D The Charm of a Book．8. One of my neighbors used to have a beautiful tree in her front yard． Her dad had planted it for her when it was nothing more than a twig（树枝） and several years later it started to shoot towards the sky with amazing speed． Soon it blessed her with cooling shade in the summer and glorious, golden leaves in the fall．When the two﹣day snowstorm struck our town, heavy snow fell on the tree's branches that were still full of leaves． The weight split that lovely tree down the middle． It was so sad seeing half of it laying on the ground after the storm． When I talked to my neighbor later, she said that the damage had been too much and that the entire tree would have to be cut down． Thankfully she had saved a few saplings（树苗） from it that she hoped to replant in the future．Still, it was a shock to drive by her house the other day and see nothing but a stump in her front yard． I missed that tree． I missed its beauty, its leaves shinning in the afternoon sun． I missed seeing its limbs reach towards the heavens． I thought that the stump would be a sad reminder of its loss for a long time to come． My wonderful neighbor, though, had another plan． When I drove by her home today I saw a tiny bird feeder sitting on that stump and a colorful songbird having its dinner． It was such an affirmation of life． It was such a joy to see． I could feel my heart smile．Life by its very nature is a mixed bag． It hands us beauty and tragedy, love andloss, pleasure and pain． What we do with it, however, is up to us． We can let it split us in two, or we can use even its hardest times to make our souls stronger and our hearts more loving． We can spend it complaining or we can use it to help others．（1）We know from the first paragraph that________．A the tree grew very slowly．B the tree was so strong that it could bear any weight．C the tree showed its beauty and benefits．D the author's neighbor was good at planting trees．．（2）The author's neighbor left a stump in her front yard to use it as________．A a good reminderB a place to feed birds．C a seat after dinner．D a beautiful sculpture．．（3）What does the author mainly want to show in the passage？________A Life is determined by our attitude towards it．B Life consists of pain and suffering．C Life has beauty and tragedy．D Life should be pleasant rather than painful．9. See a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you． In the near future, you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting "print" on your computer． You might find it hard to believe that you could actually "print" an object like you would a picture． But it is not that hard to understand how it would work． Just as a traditional printer sprays ink onto paper line by line, modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape．Instead of ink, the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin（树脂） and certain metals． The thinner each layer is﹣from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair ﹣the smoother and finer the object will be． This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s． Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it．Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3D printing industry﹣printers became muchcheaper． For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost ￡20, 000, while now they cost only about ￡1, 000, according to the BBC． Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses, 3D printing can create just about anything you can think of﹣flutes , bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs． In fact, scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer, according to Science Daily． The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one．However, as 3D printing becomes more common, it may bring about certain problems﹣such as piracy． "Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils （餐具） on your personal 3D printer, who will visit a retail store again? " an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News． Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?（1）According to the article， in the future， the 3D printing technology will________．A enable people to make better purchases onlineB change the way we make many productsC be applied as widely in our daily life as computersD shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online．（2）What happened in the 3D printing industry last year？________A The 3D printing technology was taken out of the factory．B The 3D printing technology began to be used in various fields．C The 3D printer was used for medical treatment for the first time． D The 3D printer became more affordable for consumers （消费者）．．（3）What is the best title of the passage？________A Great Demand for 3D PrintersB Technology in the FutureC Online Shopping DisappearingD Printing out Everything．（4）How is the last paragraph developed？________A By giving examples．B By making comparisons．C By analyzing the cause and effect．D By using figures．第二节（满分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．选项中有两项为多余选项．10.How strong are you？How strong are you？ That is a tough question to answer， whether you are a man or a woman． But， really，I want to ask…how do you define your strength？ How do you know your limits？ How do you know just how much you've got？ When push comes to shove， we often discover that we are much stronger than we think．（1）_______Strength is not always about pure physical strength．（2）_______ It is about the capacity to get things done．I know some people who are intellectually strong， but they get very littledone in their jobs． And I know others who find work extremely challenging， but are ableto move mountains by their sheer drive and hard work．They possess innerstrength． More interesting， is that these productive hard﹣workers often don't even notice the load． Bystanders are not only amazed， but often ask， "How do you do it？" The answer usually comes back， "I just work harder than the others．" So， why are some people able to do more？ What gives them added drive？ What gives them extra strength？Could it be， they have simply given themselves permission to do more？Self﹣imposed limitsWhat I have observed is that most people impose（加强） their own limits． They limittheir output based on self﹣framed constraints（限制）of their capabilities and strengths． Sometimes these boundaries are based on past experiences． Sometimes they are based on perceived（感觉的） capacities． Sometimes these limits are based on nothing．I can't do that．（Why？）That is too much for me．（How do you know？）I can't put in that much effort．（What would happen if you did？）I am not smart enough to solve that．（Can you be sure if you haven't tried？）（3）_______Pushing it…Many people are going through the motions， but are nowhere near their limits． If you want to be stronger， you have to push your boundaries．（4）_______ In the gym，bodybuilders discovered this long ago． But， the same principle is true when it comes to inner strength，discipline and drive． Want to test your limits？ Push yourself． Test your self﹣perceived constraints to see how accurate they are． Make sure your goals are slightly beyond what you think can be achieved．You are stronger than you think（5）_______ As you go through your day， challenge your capacity． Test your limits． Push yourself， to find your true boundaries and define your strength． When you discover how much you've really got， you may surprise even yourself．What are your self﹣imposed limits？ Which do you need to push？ When have you found that you were much stronger than you thought？A． Most people underestimate their strength．B． Don't impose your own limits．C． What is strength？D． Pushing it is what it takes to increase your limits．E． So， how do we break through these limits？ How do we get stronger？F． You're cleverer than others．G． Rather， it is about willpower，discipline and drive．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（每题1. 5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．11.

四川省双流中学2020-2021学年高二上学期开学考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择Who are we and what do we do?Since National Theatre Live was launched in June 2009, we’ve broadcast more than forty productions live, from both the National Theatre and other theatres in the UK.Our broadcasts have now been experienced by over 5.5 million people in over 2,000 venues around the world, including over 650 venues in the UK alone. Past broadcasts from the National Theatre have included Danny Boyle s’ Frankenstein with Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller, War Horse; Man and Superman with Ralph Fiennes.Broadcasts from other UK theatres include Coriolanus from the Donmar Warehouse; Macbeth from the Manchester International Festival; Our biggest single broadcast to date is Hamlet with Benedict Cumberbatch at the Barbican, which has been seen by over 550,000 people.How do we do it?Thought each broadcast is filmed in front of a live audience in the theatre, cameras are carefully positioned through out the theatre to ensure that cinema audiences get the “best seat in the house” view of each production.Where can you find us?The nearest venue to you is Emei 1958 Cinema, located at No. 360 Qingjiang Road East, Chendu, China.What’s on?Clicking “Book Now” will take you through to a third party site where you can complete your booking.1．What is the number of audience who have watched the National Theatre Live productions? A．Over 5.5 million B．Over 2,000C．Over 650 D．Over 550,0002．Which of the following statements is true about Hamlet?A．It was performed at National TheatreB．Barbican is one of the actors playing a role in itC．It is Benedict Cumberbatch’s biggest single broadcastD．None of their other single broadcasts has been bigger than it3．Which of the following productions can the audience in Chengdu enjoy this July? A．The Deep Blue Sea B．War HorseC．Macbeth D．Man and Superman4．Where is this passage likely from?A．A website B．A theatre magazineC．A textbook D．A bookletWhich boy hasn’t dreamed of being a cool secret agent? The wonderful fighting abilities and the world-saving adventures are much more colourful than most pe ople’s everyday lives. Well, Cody Banks is just like any other boy, except that he is not just dreaming. He has a big secret his friends never know about. He was trained to be a spy by a special CIA programme, which was made to look like a summer camp. He learned high-speed driving, hand-to-hand fighting and the use of high-tech tools.After proving he could become a young hero by saving a baby from a runaway car, Banks gets his first real task. He must make friends with a popular girl at school, Natalie Connors.Then, he must spy on her father, a scientist who has developed a dangerous technology. Banks must stop a group of bad people from forcing Natalie’s father into using the technology to endanger the world.The CIA may have taught him first-class self-defence moves, but they didn’t show him how to talk to girls. Banks has zero ability when it comes to dealing with girls. How can he get around his problem and get an invitation to the girl’s upcoming birthday party? Will he finally become Natalie’s boyfriend and find out whatever he can about her father’s work?Agent Cody Banks has everything that young people are interested in: big explosions, breath-taking performances and funny girl-dating experiences. It was listed No.2 in the American box office last week.“This story is interesting and fun for the whole family to enjoy, and especially cool for young boys,” said Paul Perkins, a film reviewer in the US.5．What is the Banks’ first real task?A．To test a high-tech tool B．To save a baby from a carC．To study a new technology D．To watch a scientist secretly 6．Banks wanted to go to Natalie’s birthday party to _________.A．meet her father face to faceB．know more people in he familyC．find something about her father’s workD．steal some information from her father7．What is considered as a great danger in the text?A．The technology developed for its tasksB．An explosion set off by some bad peopleC．The CIA’s training of Banks for its tasksD．Banks’ stopping bad people8．What is the purpose of the text?A．To make known the work of the CIAB．To tell the story about a cool boyC．To show the dark side of scienceD．To introduce a new filmThe World Meat Free Day for 2017 falls on 12, June, but what would actually happenif the whole world suddenly went vegetarian(素食的) permanently?If vegetarianism were accepted by everyone by 2050, the world would have about seven million fewer deaths every year. No meat would lower the chances of some diseases or even some cancers and so save the world 2-3% global GDP in medical bills. Food-related emissions would drop by around 60%. This would be due to getting rid of red meat which come from methane (甲烷) producing livestock (家畜) —from people’s diets. Turning former pastures (牧场) into native habitats and forests would slow climate change and bring back lost biodiversity, including some animals which were previously pushed out or killed in order to keep cattle.However, farmers in the developing world could really suffer. Arid and semi-arid lands can only be used to raise animals as there’s no or little water in these places, such as the Sahel land strip in Africa next to the Sahara; nomadic (游牧的) groups that keep livestock there would be forced to settle permanently and lose their cultural identities if there were no more meat. Lo sing meat also means that we also lose traditions. There’s no more Christmas turkey. We would need to replace meat with nutritional substitutes, in particular for the world’s estimated two billion-plus unhealthy or weak people for lack of nutrients. Animal products contain more nutrients per calorie than staples like grains and rice.Everybody currently engaged in the livestock industry would need to be retrained for a new career. This could be in agriculture, reforestation or producing bioenergy. Failing to provide career alternatives could lead to mass unemployment and social problems, particularly in traditionally rural communities.9．The passage is mainly about ________.A．what future life will be like B．why there is a World Meat Free Day C．the influence of a meat free world D．the positive and negative sides of our life 10．In what way would people suffer from a vegetarian world?A．Famers’ lands would become too dry to raise livestock.B．We would lose some traditions where meat is needed.C．All of us would be unhealthy and weak for lack of nutrients.D．Nomadic groups would keep their livestock where they settle.11．The underlined word “arid” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.A．dry B．wetC．hot D．coldIt's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes .They recycle their garbage because the care about the environment .They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bem , by observing our own behavior .We can be strangers to ourselves .If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes .Actually , we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there before .Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize .Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't .Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us .We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do, though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their true desires .Therefore , we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”12．According to the passage, personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to___. A．determine one's behaviorB．reflect one's tasteC．influence one's surroundingsD．result from one's habits13．Which of the following would Daryl Bem most probably agree with?__A．The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.B．A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C．One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D．One buys latte out of true love of coffee.14．What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?___A．We fail to realize our inner dispositions.B．We can be influenced by outside pressures.C．Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D．Our characters can shape our social relationships.15．What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?___A．Personalities and attitudes.B．Preferences and habits.C．Behavior and personalities.D．Attitudes and preferences.二、七选五Creativity is a skill that you can work on with time, training, and effort. There are many areas you can focus on to improve your overall creativity.16．Doodle(信手涂鸦)in your spare time. Doodling can increase creativity by increasing your engagement with the world and attention span. 17．The more information you’re able to absorb, the more creative you will be.Listen to music. Simply playing music in the background can inspire you creatively. It can help you focus better and increase your overall concentration. Classical music tends to work particularly well for creativity and concentration. 18．While classical music has beneficial effects for many, experiment a little to find the music that best helps you concentrate and feel creative.Play video games. 19．Interactive games that require movement help with creative thinking as they stimulate multiple senses. Things like Wii Tennis or Dance Dance Revolution would work well. Avoid games that require you to sit for long periods.Read more. Make a habit of reading regularly. Pick books from multiple types and styles of writing to expand your horizons and really cultivate your creativity. Try to make time to read every day. 20．This will help direct your reading if you’re unsure what kinds of books to start with.A．Try joining a book club.B．Not every type of music works for everyone.C．Some video games are actually good for the creative mindD．Creativity is really important to your life as well as to society.E.Video games do harm to our creativity instead of helping with itF.The following are some creative approaches you can involving yourself inG.It helps you stay engaged during activities where you would otherwise zone out三、完形填空A young man was getting ready to graduate from college.

About 12 years ago, I began making a series of dolls called "Wee Mountain Folk．" At first, I made them from cloth but then began using a kind of polymer clay（软陶）called cernit． The cloth dolls were beautiful, but it was impossible to get the level of detail（细节）I can get with clay．First, I use wire（金属丝）to build the shape of the doll． Then I cover thehead, hands, and feet around the wire using the cernit． Then I make the doll's clothes myself, using lots of different materials． The completed dolls are fixed onto hardwood bases made by my father, Jim Logan．Generally, the dolls I make show older people taking part in traditional activities． I'vealways had a great respect for the older generation．Inspiration for the dolls often comes from people I know． Once I was caught looking too closely at the wrinkles（皱纹）on the face of one of my mom's friends． But I explained that her laugh lines made her more attractive．Now I work as a teacher's assistant, and while I was raising my two daughters, Keri and Sheryl, I could work on the dolls only late in the day． The girls loved to come downstairs the next morning to see who'd arrived in the night．It's the detail that I enjoy working on the most． I once made a fisherman doll for a lady to give her father, including a tiny creel ﹣ a basket used by fishermen for carrying fish． When the man got the doll, he immediately opened the creel to see what was inside． Luckily, I'd made a small fish out of cernit and placed it in the basket．Hopefully my story will inspire others to try their hand at doll making ﹣ I find it very relaxing and interesting．（1）The dolls called "Wee Mountain Folk" were________．A totally hand madeB mainly made of clothC usually small kidsD often designed by the author's father．（2）Why did the author look closely at her mother's friend's face？________A To guess her age．B To get creative ideas．C To give her a surprise．D To find out why she was so attractive．．（3）The author's daughters________．A thought doll making was a waste of timeB thought the dolls' styles were tooold C showed great interest in the dolls D paid little attention to the dolls．（4）The author tells the story of the fisherman doll to show that________．A it takes much effort to make a dollB it is difficult to satisfy everyoneC the old also love her dollsD her dolls have fine details．3.

His father immigrated to the United States, fearing that his son would be drafted (招募) into the Czarist army. Mark stayed in Russia with his mother and elder sister; they joined the family later, arriving in the winter of 1913, after a 12-day voyage.Mark moved to New York in the autumn of 1923 and found employment in the garment trade and took up residence on the Upper West Side. It was while he was visiting someone at the Art Students League that he saw students sketching a nude model. According to him, this was the start of his life as an artist. He was twenty years old and had taken some art lessons at school, so his initial experience was far from an immediate calling.In 1936, Mark Rothko began writing a book, which he never completed about the similarities in the children’s art and the work of modern painters. The work of modernists, which was influenced by primitive (原始的) art, according to him, could be compared to that of children in that “Child art transforms itself into primitivism (原始主义), which is only the child producing a mimicry (模仿) of himself.” However, in this same work, he said that “The fact that one usually begins with drawing is already academic. We start with the colors.”It was not long before his multiform developed into the style he is remembered for; in 1949 Rothko exhibited these new works at the Betty Parsons Gallery. For critic Harold Rosenberg, the paintings were a revelation. After painting his first multiform, Rothko withdrew himself to his home in East Hampton on Long Island. The discovery of his definitive form came at a period of great grief; his mother Kate died in October 1948 and it was at some point during that winter that Rothko chanced upon the striking symmetrical (对称的) rectangular blocks of two to three opposing or contrasting, yetcomplementary colors (对称). As part of this new uniformity of artistic vision, his paintings and drawings no longer had individual titles: from this point on they were simply untitled, numbered or dated. However, to assist in distinguishing one work from another, dealers would sometimes add the primary colors to the name.24.Mark Rothko’s family have experienced all of the following except .A. a separation from his fatherB. the call up of the armyC. a temporary stay in RussiaD. a 12-day voyage to the United States25.What made Mark Rothko want to be an artist?A. His move to the Upper West Side.B. His visit to the Art Students League.C. H is sight of the students’ drawing.D. His lessons took in art school.26.Mark Rothko thought modern art share some similarities with child artbecause .A. they are both considered childish and academicB. they are both ways of expressing primitivismC. they are both a copy of the painters themselvesD. they ate both striking blocks and colors27.Which of the following statements is true about Mark Rothko’s style?A. It was inspired by Rosenberg.B. It resulted from moving to Long Island.C. It resulted from his grief.D. It evolved (develop gradually) in 1948.CAn idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond．The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools．The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998．Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea hassince expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program．As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city．Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character．The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population．This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultinatelas Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.28.What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the friendship between cities.29.Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A. They had little interest in reading.B. They were too busy to read a book.C. They came from many different backgroundsD. They lacked support from the local government30.According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?A. In large communities with little sense of unityB. In large cities where libraries are far from homeC. In medium-sized cities with a diverse populationD. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached31.According to Nancy, the degree of students of the project is judged byA. the careful selection of a proper bookB. the growing popularity of the writersC. the number of people who benefit from reading.D. the number of books that each person reads.DBritain faces social problems as lots of people are set to lose their jobs in technological revolution, Bank of England’s chief economist w arned.Andy Haldane said the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution will make the machine replace humans to do thinking things. The dark side of the change could be a much bigger breakdown of employment than in Victorian times, with professions such as accountancy (会计) among those at risk.A report by the accountancy firm PwC last month warned that more than 7 million jobs in Britain had been lost over the next 20 years as technological change sweeps though workplaces.The majority of these are in jobs in the retail, transport and manufacturing industries. However, other traditional professional sectors could also be at serious risk.Economists treat the arrival of increasingly intelligent computers and robots as the fourth industrial revolution. The first was the shift from agricultural to urban societies, the second saw the widespread use of electricity and steel, and the third was the digital revolution when computers, the Internet and mobile phones were developed.Mr Haldane said the hollowing-out (空洞化) experienced in the past years could be on a greater scale in the future so it is important to learn the lessons of history and ensure that people are given training to take advantage of new opportunities.“Jobs were effectively taken by machines of various types, there was a hollowing-out of the jobs market, which left many people for a long period out of work and struggling to make a living,” Haldane added, “That heightened social and financial tensions, and led to a rise in inequality. This is the dark side oftechnological revolution.”“That hollowing-out is going to be potentially on a much greater scale in the future, when we have machines thinking and doing the cognitive and technical skills of humans.” Mr Haldane said professions like accountancy could be among those hardest hit by the rise of AI. But he suggested economists could escape.32.What is the dark side mentioned in the text?A. The hollowing-out has become a major social problem.B. Less and less people have the desire to learn accountancyC. Intelligent computers and robots decrease good workers.D. The technological revolution causes people to lose jobs.33.Why are economists the lucky dog in the new technological revolution?A. The study about economy is at a low level.B. Economists work on a traditional professional job.C. There is no machine that can work as an economist.D. Economists have the chance to avoid technological revolution.34.What should be done to deal with the serious situation?A. To call for people to devote more to studying history.B.
