When my mother asked me what I wanted for my sixth birthday, I said a tree house. I got a doll instead. We lived in a small apartment in a big city, so there was no room to build a tree house. So, it was the same for every birthday---until I turned ten. That was the year when we moved from the city to a little town in the country. When my parents asked me what I wanted for that birthday, I said a bicycle. My father looked a bit sad. He asked me why I didn’t want a tree house. I looked at his face carefully. My dad turned around and I followed him. We went into our new backyard, right to the biggest tree. He pointed up---there was my tree house.。

高二期中考试答案1.A2.B(A.结构混乱,“自”和“是一个重要原因”句式杂糅,可删去“自”。
C.成分赘余,应删去“多”。
D.语序不当,前后句对调。
)3.B(这种类型题考的就是对诗句的理解、对客观事实的关注、对逻辑思维的把握三部分,只要读懂了句子所描绘的“早春雪景空巷无人”的意义,那么就很容易选择“树梢听得黄鹂语”。
)4.(1)旅行费用相宜;(2)身体符合条件;(3)旅途安全可靠;(4)生活设施便利。
(每点1分)5.(1)穿越:“穿越”一词在网络上流行起。
但是不同于小说和电视剧中单纯表示由于各种原因导致的从所在时空穿越到另一时空的意思,网络中的“穿越”显然具有更加广泛的含义,主要表示思想脱离当下的时空和环境的束缚,天马行空,与大家不同步。
(2)“坑爹”意指与本人意愿有很大出入,有欺骗的意思,又包含了微微的“不给力”的意思成分。
类似的有“坑人”等。
多由男性使用。
“坑爹”也可以是指“坑我”,因为现在爹的意思也可以是“我”的意思。
6.D(造:到……去)7.A(①爱才;②得才后的惊奇;④⑤刚毅;③⑥是说史可法。
)8.B(“反衬了史可法的胆小怕事”说法不妥)9.(1)一天,刮风下雪特别寒冷,他带着几个骑马的随从外出,私行察访走进一座古庙。
(3分)(2)有人劝他稍微休息一下,他说:“我对上怕辜负朝廷,对下怕愧对我老师呀!”(3分)(3)过了好久,听说左公受到炮烙酷刑,不久就要死了,史可法拿出五十两银子,哭泣着跟看守商量,看守受感动了。
(4分)10.(1)一个“照”字渲染了紧张气氛,写出了烽火之盛。
(1分)一个“自”字,表现了书生那种由衷的爱国激情,写出了人物的精神境界。
(2分)(2)这两句诗人未从正面着笔,而是用景物描写进行烘托。
(1分)“雪暗凋旗画”,从人的视觉出发;(1分)“风多杂鼓声”,从人的听觉出发:两句诗,有声有色,各臻其妙。
(1分)表现将士冒雪同敌人搏斗的无畏精神和在战鼓声激励下奋勇杀敌的悲壮场面。

One r eason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code.“A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes.In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale.Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negativeimpact on productivity.Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money.“Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said.“For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”1.David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because.A.he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB.he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC.he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD.he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes2.David Smith wears casual clothes now, because .A.they make him feel at ease when workingB.he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC.he looks handsome in casual clothesD.he no longer works for any company3.According to this passage, which of the following statements is false?A.Many employees don’t like a conservative dress code.B.Comfortable clothes make employees more productive.C.A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees.D.All the employers in the U.S support casual office wear.4.According to this passage, which of the following statements is true?A.Company workers started to dress down about fifty years ago.B.Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.C.“Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers.D.Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.5.In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned except .A.saving employees’ money B.making employees more attractive C.improving employees’ motivation D.making employees happierBHow to Study Smarter, Not HarderHere are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder: Recite As You StudyReciting—saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph orsection. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.Take Fuller NotesNotes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.Study the MiddleThe best time to review is soon after you’ve learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.Sleep On ItStudy before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It’s easier to remember material you’ve just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you’ve fallen asleep.Combine Memory and UnderstandingThere are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.6. You can notice your mistakes by _______.A. saying things out aloudB. taking notesC. studying the middleD. sleeping on it7. When taking notes, you should _______ to better help you with reading.A. underline important notesB. write notes in your own wordsC. take down every detailD. write as quickly as possible8. The writer advises you to _______ as it is easier for you to remember material.A. study after a period of activityB. do some exercise after studyingC. study as soon as you get upD. study before going to sleep9. Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?A. Thinking about an idea in different ways.B. Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.C. Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.D. Going back to what first made you confused and start again.四、阅读表达阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后面的要求答题。

Our music teacher is becoming quite upset because some students don’t listen carefully in her classes. Instead, they often talk with each other, or do their homework of other subjects.As is known to all, music has a great influence on our daily lives and studies. Music education not only enriches our knowledge, but also relax us and reduce our pressure of study. Besides, music is also a good way to deepen communication and understanding between people. In a word, music can make our life meaningful, make our study efficient and make our spirit high.In my opinion, we students should not live without music and we should make full use of music, especially our music lessons.附:听力录音材料1.

Ever since I was old enough to look at picture books, I wanted a tree house. When my dad askedme what I wanted for my fifth birthday, I said a tree house. I got a box of colored pencils. When my mother asked me what I wanted for my sixth birthday, I said a tree house. I got a doll instead. We lived in a small apartment in a big city, so there was no room to build a tree house. So, it was the same for every birthday---until I turned ten. That was the year when we moved from the city to a little town in the country. When my parents asked me what I wanted for that birthday, I said a bicycle. My father looked a bit sad. He asked me why I didn’t want a tree house. I looked at his face carefully. My dad turned around and I followed him. We went into our new backyard, right to the biggest tree. He pointed up---there was my tree house.。
