20different colors，compared to the 100or so that normal﹣sighted people see．Pingelap，a tiny island in the Pacific，is a beautiful spot but one that has a genetic trouble．It is known as Color Blind Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white．who's a fisherman，also struggles in full sunlight because all he sees is a painful burnt﹣out image．"I find it difficult to go outside in the sun，"he says，"because when it's sunny I cannot see to do my work．"But if being truly color﹣blind is rare，why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap lire in a totally black and white world？Well，we know that in 1780the population of Pingelap was all but wiped out by a tsunami．As few as 20people survived，one of whom was the king．It's believed he had a

that the type of emotional support that a child receives during the first three and a half years has an effect on education，social life and romantic relationships even 20or 30years later．Babies raised in supportive and caring home environments tended to do better on tests later on，and they were more likely to get higher degrees as adults．They were also more likely to get along with their classmates and feel satisfied in their romantic relationships．"It seems like，at least in these early years，the parents'role is to communicate with the children and let them know，‘I'm here for you when you're upset，when you need me．And when you don't need me，I'm your cheerleader，'"says Lee Raby，a psychologist and researcher at the University of Delaware who led the study．Raby used data collected from 243people who participated in the Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk．All the participants were followed from birth until they turned 32．"Researchers went into these kids'home at times．Other times，they brought the children and their parents to the university and observed how they communicated with each other，"says Raby．Of course，parental behavior in the early years is just one of many

永昌县第一高级中学2015-2016-2期末考试卷高二英语第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ、阅读理解(共40分；每小题2分)Ab amboo is one of the nature’s most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains.Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.1.How is bamboo like grass?A．It is thin and easy to cut. B．It grows everywhere.C．It is short and green. D．It grows quickly after it's cut short.2.The sentence “while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.” means “Some other bamboo plants may grow to be very _______.”A．short B．strong C．thick D．tall3.From the text we know ______.A．most people call bamboo plant treesB．the bamboo plant changes its colors when it growsC．a bamboo plant may grow 4.5 meters in three daysD．a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago4.Why did the engineers teach the poor farmers in Africa to make use of bamboo?A．Because it is used by Asians. B．Because it is colorful.C．Because it drills fast. D．Because it is cheap.BDoes traveling green necessarily mean we have to pay more?Nowadays as eco-tourism has become a new trend, travelers have started debating the seemingly high costs of such tourism．“I vote for green travel, but if it's more expensive that way, then I would probably reconsider it．”Such was the concern voiced by many individual travelers and international leaders at this year's Copenhagen Climate Summit．If you want to take an eco-trip and avoid overspending, here are some tips that we recommend．Print out maps and information before setting off．Set aside those expensive and heavy guidebooks and use online resources to plan and book your trip．Only when necessary, print out maps and other materials at home on recycled paper．Pack lightly．Make a packing list, edit it several times, and cross off everything you don't absolutely need．By reducing the weight of their luggage, travelers can significantly cut greenhouse gas emissions．Use Solar-powered chargers．Use solar-powered chargers for your camera, cell phone and music player．Solar-powered chargers can reduce carbon emissions and free you from electrical plugs．Eat locally．Visit a local farmer's market, shop at a locally owned grocery store and choose locally owned restaurants that buy local food．Locally produced food is a tastier and better option．Buy handicrafts．Try to support the local people．You can do so by buying locally made eco-friendly handicrafts．Never buy any animal products or anything that may be harmful to the environment．Change clothes less often．Take some pure cotton and quick-dry clothes on yourtrip．Clothing that dries quickly makes life easier．If you arent into doing laundry too often, take some older clothing that you are almost ready to throw away, and then you can lighten your luggage when you go home by tossing them out．Use greener methods of transportation．Use alternative（可替换的）modes of transportation as much as possible．For example, you can choose to travel on foot or by bicycle rather than by taking a taxi or driving yourself．These options are the best low-carbon ways to travel and you don't have to pay more for your environmental guilt．5.If someone wants to take an eco-trip, he is mostly concerned about ________．A．how to print out maps and information before setting offB．how much more money the eco-trip costsC．how to use solar-powered chargers for cameraD．how to reduce the weight of their luggage6.Which of the following statements is wrong, according to the passage?A．Printing out maps and other materials at home on recycled paperB．Taking some pure cotton and thick clothes on your trip in case of rainC．Visiting a local farmer's market and shopping at a locally owned grocery store D．Lightening your luggage when you go home by tossing old clothes out7.What should we do in a low-carbon way trip?A．We should eat at some local restaurant and buy some handicrafts．B．We should eat at some famous local hotel and buy some special things．C．We should eat at some cheap hotel and buy some handicrafts．D．We should eat at some local restaurant and buy some animal products．8.The main purpose of the passage is to ________．A．provide some tips on eco-trip and avoiding overspendingB．advise people to protect our environmentC．call on people to take part in eco-tourismD．remind us of using alternative modes of transportationCShe won 4 World Cup titles, and got a silver medal and a gold medal in the Olympics.Who isshe？Jennifer Heil.She was born on April 11，1983 in Canada.

The car, which has been given the name BrainDriver, was shown off to the world in a video that showed the thought-powered driving system on a trip to the airport.The BrainDriver technology works by equipping a car with video cameras, radars and laser sensors (激光传感器) to give it a full 3D picture of its surroundings. The driver then puts on a special headphones, a piece of equipment that you wear over your ears to listen to the radio, music etc. with 16 sensors on it.These sensors transform bioelectric brainwaves into commands read by a computer-controlled vehicle.For this to work, the test subject must first train the computer to react correctly to commands. They do this by thinking of an individual situation for one of four commands-stop, start, left, and right.The car is only in the theoretical period at present.13. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. How does the new thought-powered car work?B. How to drive the new thought-powered car?C. How do sensors transform brainwaves into commands?D.

No one tells us that the greatest moments of a lifetime are short, unplanned and nearly always catch us off guard.Not long ago，as I was reading a bedtime story to my seven-year-old daughter, Annie，I became aware of her focused look. She was staring at me with a faraway, blank expression. Apparently, completing The Tale of Samuel Whiskers was not as important as we first thought.I asked what she was thinking about. “Mommy,” she whispered, “I just can't stop looking at your pretty face.”I almost dissolved(溶解) on the spot. Little did she know how many trying moments the glow of her sincerely loving statement would carry me through over the following years.Not long after, I took my four-year-old son to an elegant department store, where the sweet notes of a classic love song drew us toward a tuxedoed(穿晚礼服的) musician playing a grand piano. Sam and I sat down on a marble bench nearby, and he seemed as astonished by the pleasant theme as I was. I didn’t realize that Sam had stood up next to me until he turned, took my face in his little hands and said, “Dance with me.”If only those women walking under the Paris moon knew the joy of such an invitation made by a round-cheeked boy with baby teeth. Althoughshoppers openly chuckled(咯咯笑) and pointed at us as we glided and whirled(旋转) around the open space, I would not have traded a dance with such a charming young gentleman if I'd been offered the universe.28.
