APodcasts (播客)The B S. ReportDesigned for the sports fan with a sense of humor, the B.S. Report is hosted by the sportswriter Bill Simmons.

The Moth is available only in New YorkBSandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children,she often felt like she had “seven fathers”,because her six brothers,as well as her father,tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant,she retreated(躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading,she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.In high school,with the encouragement of one particular teacher,Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college,but instead of searching for a husband,she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At theuniversity’s Writers’ Workshop,however,she felt lonely—a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “creative voice.”“It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman,but I didn’t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life,but it had everything to do with it! That’s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn’t write about.”Cisneros published her first work,The House on Mango Street,when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish­speaking area in Chicago,much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then,Cisneros has published several books of poetry,a children’s book,and a short story collection.4.Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood?A.She had seven brothers. B.She felt herself a nobody.C.She was too shy to go to school. D.She did not have any good teachers.5.The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to ________.A.work for a school magazine B.run away from her familyC.make a lot of friends D.develop her writing style高二英语试题(第2页,共8页)6.According to Cisneros,what played the decisive role in her success?A.Her early years in college. B.Her training in the Workshop.C.Her feeling of being different. D.Her childhood experience.7.What do we learn about The House on Mango Street?A.It is quite popular among students.B.It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.C.It wasn’t a success as it was written in Spanish.D.It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.CHoney (蜂蜜) from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees’ nest (巢) and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals lookingfor honey have a strange and unexpected helper—a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡) in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees’ nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.8. Why is it difficult to find a wild bees’ nest?A. It’s small in size.B. It’s covered with wax.C. It’s hidden in trees.D. It’s hard to recognize.9. What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A honey seeker.B. A bird.C. A bee.D. A beekeeper.10. The honey guide is special in the way ________.A. it gets its foodB. it goes to churchC. it sings in the forestD. it reaches into bees’ nests11. What can be the best title for the text?A. Wild BeesB. Wax and HoneyC. Beekeeping in Africa高二英语试题(第3页,共8页)D. Honey-Lover’s HelperDChinese students always complain that they’re under great pressure and don’t get enough sleep. But they may be surprised to learn that they’re much luckier than their peers in South Korea and Japan, according to a recently published report, conducted by Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences on the physical and mental(精神的) health of senior high school students in the three Asian countries.According to the study among nearly 6,000 high school students in the three countries, Chinese students are the tallest but poorest in physical fitness. Chinese students are on average 168.17cm, compared with167.61cm for South Korean students and 164.70cm for Japanese students. Chinese students asked for sick leave(病假) more than students in other countries. About 72 percent of Korean students never asked for sick and injury leave during high school, compared to 53 percent for Japanese students and 45 percent for Chinese students. Moreover, Chinese students drink alcohol(酒精) and smoke earlier than Korean and Japanese students. Around 70 percent of Chinese students have drunk alcohol, compared to 50 percent for Korean and Japanese students.According to the survey, Japanese and South Korean students suffer more pressure than their Chinese peers. Statistics (统计) show 16 percent of students in China said they experienced mental pressure often over the past year, while the numbers in Japan and South Korea were 33 percent and 47 percent respectively. Their worries come from “study”, “future after graduation”, “friendships” and “relationship with their parents”. To go with stress, 57.9 percent of Korean students sleep the least, less than six hours a day, compared with 46.6 percent of Japanese students and 30 percent of Chinese students.More Chinese students were satisfied with their physical appearance, double that of students in the survey from Japan and South Korea. The report said that over half of students in South Korea had tried to lose weightin the past year, while in China the figure was only 22 percent.In measures of self-worth, such as “I think I am valuable” and “I think I am successful”, “I can complete many things”, “I won’t give up to failure,” Chinese students showed greater self-confidence than students in Japan and South Korea.12. What’s the ma in idea of the passage?A. Chinese students always complain that they’re in bad condition.B. Chinese students are much luckier than their peers in South Korea and Japan.C. There is a report on the physical and mental health of senior high school studentsD. Chinese teenagers drink alcohol and smoke earliest among the three countries.13. What does the underlined word “that” in the 4th paragraph refer to?A. the weightB. the appearanceC. the heightD. the number14. The worries that cause students to be stressed come from the following factors EXCEPT _______.A. family relationshipB. friendshipsC. study and careerD. physical appearance15. Which statement is true according to the study?A. Compared with students of South Korea and Japan, Chinese students are taller and healthierB. About 45 percent of Chinese students always ask for sick and injury leavesC. Among students of 3 countries, Japanese students experience the most pressure mental pressure often over the past yearD. Chinese students are more confident and only about 1 out of 10 them choose to lose weight第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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.Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, Nobel Prize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons. 16 It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an inventor! 17 When he invented machineshe used both his imaginative ability and his analytical (分析)ability.18 Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer's day while sitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve (弯曲). 19 He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why don't we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs!20 We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.A. We benefit by thinking creatively.B. We all need both sides of our brain.C. He got this idea by using his imagination.D. Great scientists and great artists are similar.E. He was considered crazy for his strange ideas.F. He used both sides of his brain within each activity.G. The right side controls our imagination and our understanding of高二英语试题(第5页,共8页)space.第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分55分)第一节完形填空(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)I would lose things.

Get to know some films to find fantastic film locations you should check on your travels.The Sound of MusicAustria’s hills are certainly alive with the sound of music and tourists. Mozart may have been born in Salzburg, but The Sound of Music really put it on the map and now about 70 percent of people visit it because of the movie. Cross Residenzplatz Square and visit the Palace of Leopoldskron where the children in the film fell into the lake.TroyAlthough the Palace of Troy was filmed on sets built at Shepperton Studios in the UK, most of the 2004 movie was shot in Malta and Baja California, Mexico. Malta with historic sites and beautiful blue waters was a good choice to replace Greece. Troy was shot at a host of locations, including Golden Bay, Hal Far as well as Fort Ricasoli (where the city of Troy was constructed). The Trojan horse from the film is now lying on the waterfront in Canakkale, Turkey.Bridget Jones’s DairyBridget Jones is brought to life as we watch the work and romance in London. Her special corner flat is above the Globe Tavern by Borough Market, one of the city’s oldest and biggest food markets. According to The Telegraph, it would be highly unlikely that she could afford to buy a place like that today since it has risen in value by more than 240 percent.Harry PotterJ.K. Rowling started writing the Harry Potter books while she was living in Edinburgh, Scotland, so it’s no surprise that she set most of the story there. The Hogwarts Express travels through the Scottish Highlands and along the 31 meters high Glenfinnan Viaduct. The second highest waterfall in the UK, Steall Falls can be seen during Quidditch Matches.1. Which of the following films makes Salzburg famous?A. The Sound of MusicB. TroyC. Bridget Jones’s DiaryD. Harry Potte2. Where was the city of Troy Built?A. In Hal Far.B. In Fort RicasoliC. In CanakkaleD. In Golden Bay3. What is the similarity of the last two films?A. Their theme is mainly about romanceB. Their authors lives in the same houseC. Most of their stories were set in the UKD. They cause the price of houses to rise.BI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your socks away! Why under my bed!” Deafened(变聋的), I saw my socks flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing.Obviously, that was not something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression was such disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.4. What made Kate so angry one evening?A. Because the author’s socks were lying under her bed.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed.5. The author tidied up the room most probably because _______.A. she was scared by Kate’s angerB. she wanted to show her sympathyC. she hated herself for being so messyD. she was asked by Kate to do so6. Which is right according to the passage?A. I got on well with Kate before the war broke out.B. Kate and I was in the same class.C. Kate’s grandma got well again soon.D.I really felt sorry for Kate7. What might be the best title for the story?A. My Friend Kate and IB. How to Be OrganizedC. Learning to Be RoommatesD. Hard Work Pays OffCIt was on her 14th birthday that her first book, In the Forests of the Night, was accepted for publication. It was a huge success gaining the attention of millions of young readers. At 16, her second book, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstore. Several books later, the teenage writer still works away in her room, surrounded by shelves full of dark tales about vampires (吸血鬼)and witches (巫婆). AmeliaAtwater-Rhodes is widely seen as America’s finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People’s “20 Teens Who will Change the World”.Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was three years old. “ I never stopped and said, ‘ I want to write’,” Amelia remembers. “I love stories and created stories before I was old enough to know how to write them down.”In her family, reading was basic and fun. “My parents encouraged me to read ----and to read anything I wanted, so l ong as I was reading,” she said. “They never limited what I read. Later, when I started writing, they never criticized what I did or said I was‘too young’. They never said it was impossible for me to achieve what I have. ”In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different styles. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From them, she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about.As a published teen writer, Amelia’s advice to other teens who dream of being authors is: just do it! “I believe anything is possible. Don’t give up your dreams just because you fear failure. Getting a book published is difficult, but if I can do it, others can too. ”8. When can readers find the book, Demon in My View, in the bookstore?A. In 1984.B. In 1987.C. In 1998.D. In 2000.9. What can we learn about Amelia Atwater-Rhodes?A. Reading widely helped her a lot in her career.B. She found getting a book published was easy.C. Vampires have been the only characters in her books.D. She was taught to make up stories when she was three.10. What do we know about Amelia’s parents?A. They helped her with writing stories.B. They fully supported her.C. They thought she was too young to read.D. They chose what she read.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Good News for Teen WritersB. Is it Possible for a Teen Writer to Be Published?C. Advice on Being Teen WritersD. A Top-selling Writer Pens Vampire TalesDIs looking fashionable more important than being comfortable? Many people seem to think so, judging by the things they wear. But fashion is not everything. It is more important to be a healthy and good person.People go to great lengths to be fashionable. Some people think they have to have a certain body type, so they go on extreme, unhealthy diets in order to change their bodies. In addition, many women wear uncomfortable fashions such as high-heeled shoes that create blisters(水泡), tight body shapers that limit blood flow, and sticky false eyelashes(假睫毛). Men and women alike spend time and money on products that change their natural hair color and use hot irons and blow dryers to curl or straighten their hair. Some people spend several hours a day in frontof a mirror. Is fashion so important that people spend so many time and effort on changing how they look like?If the purpose of fashion is to make a person feel good, it does not make sense that he or she would go through so much discomfort to be fashionable. Fashion should not come first. People should prioritize(优先考虑)being healthy and positive. What people wear does not indicate anything about their personalities. Instead of spending hours choosing a suit, perhaps you should call your friends and do something together! Instead of going on strict diets and starving, why not eat some healthy foods and then exercise? By doing these things, you can keep a healthy lifestyle and truly grow as a person.12. Why does the author include questions in the text?A. To enrich the content.B. To introduce a new topic.C. To reflect different attitudes.D. To make readers think and give their opinions.13. Which of the following statements best represents the author’s viewpoint?A. Fashion can make people do some unhealthy things.B. Fashion increases famous people’s self-respect.C. When you look good, you feel good.D. People need to diet to lose weight.14. Which of the following activities would the author most likely recommend?A. Shopping for fashionable clothes.B. Starting a new diet with a friend.C. Going skating with friends.D. Changing the hairstyle every week.15. The author’s main purpose in writing the text is to ________.A. show readers advantages and disadvantages of dietingB. persuade readers to value health more than fashionC. tell readers ways to become fashionableD. inform readers of the latest fashion trends第二节 (共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。

山西省运城市永济中学2019-2020学年高二上学期开学考试语文试卷 含答案

永济中学2019—2020学年度高二入学模拟训练语文试题(本试题共150分,时间150分钟)第Ⅰ卷(阅读题,共70分)一、现代文阅读(36分)(一)论述类文本阅读(本题共3小题,共9分)阅读下面的文字,完成1~3题。

①信息技术革命的进步是人类社会劳动的一次飞跃,以往的体力劳动渐进式地改变了人类的肌肉、韧带、骨骼等生理机能,帮助创造出了美妙的艺术,那么,愈来愈脑力化了的信息革命劳动,也必将会促进人类创造出属于这一时代的崭新艺术。

信息技术的革命正在改变着人类的劳动方式、艺术创造的方式。

因此,我们有必要研究信息技术革命背景下的审美审视。

②数码艺术有别于传统艺术的最显著特征是受众与艺术品之间的互动性、参与性。

它根本性地颠覆了艺术审美基本原则和程序,使受众第一次真正地不再是被动地接受,而是批判地接受,把受众从艺术品的束缚中解放了出来。

③互动较多的是在利用数码技术设备和作品的教学过程、游戏过程中,学会运用数码技术和艺术,可以使你的教学成效倍增,可以让你的游戏作品拥趸者众,增添受众的兴趣和技能。

所以,在数码时代,过程也许比结果更为重要,而且,有了这么一个生动活泼的过程,结果也一定是出彩的,二者并行不悖,相互提携促进。

④数码技术和数码艺术给受众提供了广泛参与的最大可能,也让艺术突破了作者和读者、台上和台下的樊篱,使艺术真正意义上走向受众,受众可以在缪斯女神面前充当一回创作者。

如某些剧作中的人物命运安排,情节的增删、着色等,受众都可以参与到创作中去,一部作品到最后可能就是集体智慧的结晶,也可能永远没有一个结尾,永远处在改编变化之中。

⑤我们知道,任何一门艺术都是以一定的物质作为载体的,可是,人类历史上还没有一种艺术像被移易于数码磁片上后所表现出来的那样轻捷。

它摆脱了传统物质媒介的桎梏,超越了现实的各种限制。

使艺术作品不再是象牙塔中的摆设,而真正地在艺术形式、艺术数量上有可能走向最广大的群众。

因而,我们迎来了艺术审美的普众化的时代,也为“日常生活审美化”创造了美的意境和美的氛围。

山西省运城市永济中学2019-2020学年高二上学期开学考试英语试卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分60分)第一节(共15小题,每小题3分,共45分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMoving to any new country is an exciting challenge. To find out what it is like for a Western single man to live in Qatar, we are chatting with someone who has made Doha, the capital of Qatar, his home for the past year.Would you like to tell us a little bit about yourself?I am in my early 40s, and I am from Canada, but I had worked in the US for the past few years before coming to Qatar. I have been working in healthcare in Doha for more than a year.Do you like alone or with others in Qatar?I am comfortable with myself and therefore do not mind being alone. However, when moving to Qatar, it is important to open and make an effort to meet others. A little socializing can go a long way in Qatar. After speaking with you I am going to a friend’s house for a small get-together.How do you get around Doha?Although cabs are inexpensive around Doha, I chose to own the road by buying a cheap second-hand car from someone leaving Qatar. Since many foreign workers have short contracts (合同),usually lasting only a few years,you can always get a sweet deal at the “fire sales” foreign workers have when they’re returning home.What do you do in your spare time now?There are loads of opportunities for entertainment in Qatar. If acting is your thing, join the Doha Players, which puts on amateur musicals and dramas. If you are a history or nature lover, you should join the Qatar Natural History Club. There are also the Desert Ramblers who like taking adventures around the country. But I like none of them. I prefer to hit the waves with my surfboard .I also enjoy traveling. Since I came to Qatar, I’ve been to India, Bahrain, Egypt, and Thailand. Qatar is a central location and the airfare to these countries is much cheaper than backhome.1. According to his reply to the second question, we know that the man.A. doesn’t like being alone nowB. doesn’t have many friends in QatarC. thinks socializing is important in QatarD. feels uncomfortable when he stays with friends2. What can the man do at the “fire sales”?A. Rent necessities cheaply.B. Buy a second-hand cab.C. Learn the history of Qatar.D. Make some new friends.3. What does the man like doing in his spare time?A. Acting in the Doha Players.B. Taking adventures in Qatar.C. Traveling to nearby countries.D. Learning about history and nature.BIn a country where many families can’t afford books, one woman is getting them to kids in an unusual way: motorcycles.Rosey Sembataya, an English teacher and publisher in Uganda, started the Malaika Mobile Library in 2014, The library delivers books to kids in and around the capital city of Kampala by motorcycle. “My sister has four children and I’ve been finding it very difficult to buy them books because they’re quite expensive.” Sembataya said. “So I thought there was a need to create something that could make storybooks accessible, and available a quite cheap price.”Ugandan kids hardly read and there is a reason for that. Books in Uganda can be unbelievably expensive. Many people rely on foreign friends to buy books for them from abroad, as a book in Kampala can easily cost $42—the price of a week’s worth of groceries—or even $60—a month’s salary for a waitress. That’s why Sembataya prices her library books at a flat, affordable rate: Parents pay $30 a year to borrow up to three books per week. That’s about $ 0.20 per book over a year.Sembataya started the library with her own savings, running it out of a spare room in her house. Each week she sends kids their weekly books by motorcycle.While motorcycles are certainly an original way of transport for a library, there are strangeones around: There have been mobile libraries on boats in California, on horses in Indonesia, on a donkey(驴)in Colombia and even on a camel in Mongolia. “In rural regions, a child must walk for up to 40 minutes to reach the closest school,” Soriano, the Colombian teacher who delivers books by donkey, said. “For us teachers, it’s an educational victory when a child learns how to read. That’s how our society changes.”4. Sembataya started the library mainly to .A. encourage her students to read.B. inspire adults to read some books.C. fight against publishers in Uganda.D. provide kids in need with access to books.5.Why do Ugandan kids fail to read?A. They aren’t interested.B. Books are unaffordable.C. Few books are sold there.D. Storybooks aren’t available.6.What’s an advantage of borrowing books from Senbataya’s library?A. Kids can read books from abroad.B. Kids can keep books as long as they like.C. Parents can get books at a very low price.D. Parents can borrow as many books as they want.7. What Soriano said in the last paragraph shows that .A. Children are eager to read booksB. he considered his action meaningfulC. he expected more schools to be builtD. some strange libraries exist in rural regionsCMany cities and towns have laws that require people to recycle paper and plastics. Now some state and local governments have passed laws that require citizens to recycle their food waste as well. California and Vermont have statewide laws about recycling food waste that apply to businesses and homes. The process of recycling food waste and turning it into usable soil is called composting(堆制肥料).Food waste that can be composted includes fruit and vegetable peels, coffee grounds, tea bags, and eggshells. Garden waste such as stems and leaves can also be composted. Meat, fish, and dairy food waste cannot be recycled.According to environmental groups, composting reduces the amount of trash going intolandfills, and composted waste holds a wide range of nutrients. When compost is added to the soil in gardens and fields, it helps crops grow.Reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfills is one reason why cities and states are passing food -waste recycling laws. “Our landfills are far from enough for the creation of new ones is shrinking.” Renee Crowley, a project manager at the Lower East Side Ecology Center in New York City, told TFK.Officials in Seattle, Washington, say that food waste makes up 30% of the trash going into landfills, and they are looking to reduce that percentage. That city has a law requiring people to recycle to recycle food waste. It is banned(禁止)from all garbage. There is a fine for people who put in into regular garbage.Crowley points out that even in cities where food recycling is not a law, there are often places where citizens can drop off their food waste for composting. Many schools and colleges have also started composting programs.Those who ate against food-recycling laws say that the composting process is costly. In addition, it can be difficult for people who live in apartments to store their waste because they don’t have access to outside storage bins. Patti Ferguson from Orange County, California, told her local newspaper that she thought an indoor container containing food waste would get smelly.8.What do we know about composting from the text?A. Not all food waste can be reused.B. It is cheap to compost food waste.C. Not all soil can be composted.D. It is usually processed in empty landfills.9.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. Ways of keeping nutrients in the soil.B. Ways of reducing the amount of trash.C. Examples of different useful nutrients.D. Benefits of recycling food waste.10.In Seattle, throwing food waste into garbage is .A. acceptableB. shamefulC. requiredD. illegal11. Patti Ferguson’s attitude towards food-recycling laws is probably .A. thankfulB. negativeC. uncaringD. supportiveDIt is thought that the Moon was formed when a planet about the size of Mars struck the early Earth around 4.5 billion years ago. The pieces left over from the hit combined to form the Moon. At the time of its formation, the Moon was just 14,000 miles away from our planet, compared with a quarter of a million miles between the Earth and the Moon today.The Moon continues to spin away from the Earth, at the rate of 3.78cm per year. Without the Moon, the Earth could slow down enough to become unstable(不稳定的), but this would take billions of years and it may never happen at all. The Moon is getting away from the Earth mainly due to the action of the Earth’s tides(潮汐).While 3.78cm may not seem like much, this small difference over a long enough period of time could affect life on the Earth, making the planet slow down. On the early Earth, when the Moon was newly formed, days were five hours long. but with the Moon’s braking(减速)effect operating on the Earth for the last 4.5 billion years, days have slowed down to the 24 hours that we are familiar with now, and they will continue to slow down in the future.The length of a day, or in other words the rotation(旋转)speed of the planet, plays a big part in its stability. Just like keeping a plate spinning on a stick, the key is to have the plate spinning fast, because once it slows down it falls to the floor. In a similar way, as the Earth’s rotation slows down, our whole planet may start to slowly shake.If this were to happen, and the Earth became unstable, then parts of the world could experience much greater temperature changes. As humans we have the ability to adapt to our local surroundings to meet our needs. By the time any change occurred, humans might even have developed technology to solve the problem. So we have little to fear at present. Unfortunately most animals are not so adaptable and if these changes happened rapidly, then most animals would not be able to evolve(进化)quickly enough to survive.12.What can we learn about the Moon when it was born?A. It created a lot of pieces.B. It had hit the Earth very hard.C. It was about the size of Mars.D. It sat much closer to the Earth.13.What will be the length of a day in the future?A. Around 5 hours.B. Shorter than 5 hours.C. Still around 24 hours.D. Longer than 24 hours.14.In Paragraph 4, what is the plate compared to?A. The Moon.B. The Earth.C. The stick.D. The floor.15.How does the author look at the Earth’s slowdown?A. Humans won’t get used to it.B. It will be good for most animals.C. There is no need to worry now.D. It will bring a better climate.第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15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。
