AAfrican SafariEssential information you need to know before booking your African Safari in Southern Africa – These tips will enhance the experience that you have.Things to Consider Before Booking an African Safari1) Book in AdvanceAfrican Safaris are now hugely popular and good safari camps often get booked out more than a year in advanc e, especially during the high season from July through to October.2) Choosing which game parkDifferent parks have different topography and weather patterns –this greatly affects animal movements at different times of the year. If you want to target certain species of animals, then some parks are better than others for certain species.3)Choosing which lodge or safari campA typical safari camp has between 10 and 20 beds, it is an intimate safari experience and very personalized. However, there are also hotels in some places, either inside or just outside a national park, which can sleep anything up to 300 people.4)GuidingThe quality, experience and knowledge of the game at any Safari camp is almost the most important factor to consider. Good guides can transform your experience from ordinary to exceptional.5)What’s the Best Time of Year to go on SafariUnderstandably as the seasons change so does the safari experience. It is highly advisable to find out the best time of year for the safari area that you are intending to visit. Prices will change dramatically between the high and the low season, so good deals are to be had in the low season but it is important to know the difference, as your experience will be vastly different.6)The PriceGoing on safari is not cheap whichever way you do it, but the price range can be en ormous. Unfortunately, safaris in most cases are a case of “you pay for what you get”.7)Fly-in safari or notUsing small charter planes is sometimes an absolute necessity for camps in remote areas, where road transfers are just not practical or viable. These flights can increase the overall cost of the safari substantially but generally they are worth it and allow you the flexibility to visit a variety of safari camps in different locations.8)Use an AgentAs you can see from all the information and options detailed above, there is great deal to understand and unless you go on safari several times a year it is impossible to know all this stuff.CONTACT US NOW TO HELP PLAN YOUR SAFARIWe are qualified travel agents who know this area intimately!Click on the below buttons for some fantastic safari ideas1. Which is a determining factor in choosing a Safari camp?A. Means of transport.B. Weather patterns.C. Game guides.D. Accommodation.2.Which of the following is FALSE about African Safari?A. The more money you pay, the better experience you’ll get.B. You can have a good price but same experience if you travel in low season.C. If you visit different camps in remote areas, flights may be unavoidable.D. All the parks don’t have the same s pecies of animals.BHow many things can you see in the night sky? A lot! On a clear night you might see the Moon, some planets, and thousands of sparkling stars.You can see even more with a telescope. You might see stars where before you only saw dark space. You might see that many stars look larger than others. You might see that some stars that look white are really red or blue. With bigger and bigger telescopes you can see more and more objects in the sky. And you can see those objects in more and more detail.But scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we will never see. We won’t see them with the biggest telescope in the world, on the clearest night of the year.That’s because they’re invisible. They’re the mysterious dead stars called black holes.You might find it hard to imagine that stars die. After all, our Sun is a star. Year after year we see it up in the sky, burning brightly, giving us heat and light. The Sun certainly doesn’t seem to b e getting old or weak. But stars do burn out and die after billions of years.As a star’s gases burn, they give off light and heat. But when the gas runs out, the star stops burning and begins to die.As the star cools, the outer layers of the star pull in toward the center. Thestar squashes into a smaller and smaller ball. If the star was very small, the star ends up as a cold, dark ball called a black dwarf. If the star was very big, it keeps squashing inward until it’s packed together tighter than anyth ing in the universe.Imagine if the Earth were crushed until it was the size of a tiny marble. That’s how tightly this dead star, a black hole, is packed. What pulls the star in toward its center with such power? It’s the same force that pulls you down whe n you jump –the force called gravity. A black hole is so tightly packed that its gravity sucks in ever ything – even light. The light from a black hole can never come back to your eyes. That’s why you see nothing but blackness.So the next time you stare up at the night sky, remember: there’s more in the sky than meets the eye! Scattered in the silent darkness are black holes –the great mystery of space.3. According to the article, what causes a star to die?A. As it gets hotter and hotter, it explodes.B. It collides with other stars.C. It can only live for about a million years.D. As its gases run out, it cools down.4. Which of the following statements is NOT a fact?A. Black holes are dead stars.B. There is nothing as mysterious as a black hole.C. Black holes are invisible.D. Black holes have gravity.5.Which of the following is NOT a feature of a black dwarf?A. It is usually bigger than a white dwarf.B. It is dark.C. It is smaller in size than a common star.D. It is cold.6. Why can’t you see light when you look at a black hole?A. For most black holes are so far away.B. As the star’s gases burn, it stops giving off heat and light.C. As a star cools, its outer layers pull in toward its center.D. The gravity of a black hole is so strong that it sucks the light inward.CIn life, we will succeed and fail often for reasons that are entirely out of our control. For instance, we can be incredibly nice and love someone deeply, and they may not love us back. We can work harder than anyone else in the office and still not be promoted to management. We can eat healthy food, exercise and stay away from alcohol and cigarettes, and still get sick.The bottom line is that life is not fair.That is a tough pill to swallow for many of us. As a result, some people shut down after being hit by even one unfair blow from life. They can’t handle the fact that our efforts don’t always get the results that we expect. But if we let life’s unfairness defeat us, we will never receive the beautiful blessings (幸事) that life has in store for us.For example, my first marriage ended in divorce. To me, it felt very unfair.I had worked hard to be a good wife and mother. However, no matter what I did, I could not make the relationship work.I could have been shut down by that experience. I could have decided that if one person didn’t appreciate me as a wife, then no one would. I could have given up. But I knew that I wanted to be married. I knew that I wanted to experience traditional family life. So I didn’t let one seemingly unfair experience stop me from believing that I could one day be happily married. And then one day, I met this kind, thoughtful, generous man with whom I now have a wonderful friendship and marriage. But that wou ldn’t have happened if I had decided to give up after one failed marriage.What I’ve learned over the years is that we can do all the things that deserve a good outcome, but get bad things in return instead.When we are faced with life’s seeming unfairne ss, our faith needs to jump in. When life doesn’t go according to plan, we have to let go of the outcome that we are looking forward to and keep trying, working hard and doing the right thing. Please don’t be discouraged. Accept that life is neither fair n or straightforward. And by knowing that if we remain confident, we can drive our unfair experiences awayand use them for our benefit.7. We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ______.A. life doesn’t often turn out the way we expectB. the author thinks life should reward us for our effortsC. unsatisfactory results simply mean your effort is not enoughD. people should focus on the process rather than the outcomes8. The author wrote about her unsuccessful marriage to ______.A. complain about the unfairness of her life and marriageB. tell readers how she met her second husband and became happily marriedC. express how proud she is for not being shut down by a blow from lifeD. show that we need to have faith and continue working for our goals9. When we encounter unfairness in life, the author suggests we ______.a. do nothing but accept themb. be confident with ourselvesc. keep doing what we should dod. find out what has gone wrongA. abB. adC. bcD. cd10. The author wrote the article mainly to ______.A. share her experiences of unfairness in lifeB. tell us how to deal with life’s seeming unfairnessC. tell us that life has beautiful blessings in store for usD. explain why life seems neither fair nor straightforwardDAmericans are not famous for self-deprivation(剥夺), but experts say we consistently fail to get a good night's sleep. The recommended daily requirements should sound familiar: eight hours of sleep a night for adults and at least an hour more for adolescents. Yet 71 % of American adults and 85% of teens do not get the suggested amount. “Sleep is sort of like food.”says Robert Stickgold, a cognitive (认知的)neuroscientist at Harvard Medical School But, he adds,there's one importantdifference: “You can be quite starved and still alive, and I think we appreciate how horrible that must be. But many of us live on the edge of sleep starvation and just accept it”Part of the problem is that we are so used to being sleep deprived and coping with that condition that we no longer notice how exhausted we really are. In 2003, sleep expert David Dinges at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine tested the effects of restricting sleep to eight, six, or four hours a night for two weeks. During the first few days, subjects sleeping less than eight hours admitted to being tired and lacking alertness. But by Day 4, most people had adapted to their new baseline sleepiness and reported feeling fine—even as their cognitive performance continued to decline- Over time, they became so exhausted that they had difficulty concentrating on even the simplest tasks. “The human brai n works only capable of about sixteen hours of wakefulness a day,” says Dinges. “When you get bey ond that, it can't function as efficiently accurately or well.”In the real worlds people overcome their sleepiness by drinking coffee or taking a walk. But then they find themselves nodding off in meetings or worse, behind the wheel, Those short snatches of unconsciousness are what researchers call microsleep, a sure sign of sleep deprivation, “If people are falling asleep because ‘the office was hot' or ‘the meeting was boring, 'that's not coping with sleep loss. I would argue that they're affecting their productive capability, says Dinges.What most people don't realize is that the purpose of sleep may be more to rest the mind than to rest the body. Sleep helps strengthen memory, improve judgment, promote learning and concentration, boost mood, speed reaction time and sharpen problem solving and accuracy. According to Sonia Ancoli-Israel, a psychologist at the University of California who’s done extensive studies in the aging population, lack of sleep may even resemble the symptoms of dementia (痴呆). In recent findings, she was able to improve cognitive function in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's simply by treating their sleep disorder. “The need for sleep does not change a lot with age,” says Ancoli-Israel, but often because of illnesses and the medications, “the ability to sleep does.”If you lack sleep, there’s plenty you can do to pay back your sleep debt. For starters,take your mom's advice, and get to bed early. If you can’t manage to sleep longer at night, try to squeeze in a midday nap. Timothy Roehrs, director of research at the sleep Disorders and Research Center at Henry Ford Hospital advises against oversleeping on weekend mornings to make up for a workweek of deprivation; later rising can make it even harder later to get a full night s rest.According to Dinges, the most common reason we deprive ourselves of sleep is work. But consider that in giving up two hours of bedtime to do more work, you are losing a quarter of your recommended nightly sleep and gaining just 12% more time during the day. What if you could be 12% more productive instead? If mental sharpness is your goal, the answer is clear: stop depriving yourself, and get a good night's sleep.11. We can learn from Dinges' experiment that .A. people tend to ignore the decline in mental sharpnessB. people get easily used to lack of sleep in less than 4 daysC. sleeping less than 8 hours won't cause physical discomfortD. people can keep themselves awake for only sixteen hours12. In Paragraph 3, the author shows that a person who is sleep deprived .A. remains productive by drinking coffee or taking a walkB. fails to cope with sleep loss through nodding offC. engages in microsleep to maintain productivityD. fells asleep due to the high temperature and boredom13. According to psychologist Sonia Ancoli-Israel, .A. the elderly don't need as much sleep as they used toB. the ability to sleep is not affected by medicationsC. sleep deprivation may look like the symptoms of dementiaD. people with Alzheimer’s cannot be treated for sleep disorders14. What's the author's attitude to people’s acceptance of sleep deprivation?A. Supportive.B. AmbiguousC. CautiousD. Worried15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article?A. To explain the reasons why people accept sleep starvation.B. To urge people to catch up on lost time for a good night's sleep.C. To show the common phenomenon of sleep loss in America,D. To raise people’s awareness of the hidden sleep deprivation.第二节(共5小题;每题2分,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。
2019-2020年高二上学期10月月考试题 英语 含答案

2019-2020年高二上学期10月月考试题英语含答案第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节:(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AWhen my friend Lesa was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer, another friend and I went to the hospital to spend some time with her. We bought her a small toy and named him Lemon-Aide. We gave Lemon-Aide to Lesa and told her he was to go with her to all of her treatments to remind her that we were thinking of her and caring about her even though we could not always be with her. When the treatments were pleted, she said when someone else needed him she would pass him along.A few months later,much to my surprise, it was me that she passed him to. Lemon-Aide went with me to all of my treatments.One day while waiting for my doctor I decided we could market the idea to fight cancer. Lesa thought it was a great idea so we founded the organization that came to be known as Lemon-Aide' s Friends, Inc. We designed our organization to remind people fighting cancer that there are people who love and care about them all the time. Today we have totally 5013 volunteers. The money raised is donated to cancer patients who do not have insurance. The physicians on our Board of Advisors determine how and where our money is donated.Lemon-Aide is for men, women, and children of all ages and to date has been sent to 34 states and 33 countries to provide smiling support for people fighting cancer. When life gave us lemons we made Lemon-Aide, a soft smiling toy that represents love, support, and encouragement.1.The author went to the hospital with her friend ________.A.to operate on Lesa B.to treat her diseaseC.to acpany Lesa D.to look after Lemon-Aide2.Lesa was given a small toy because ________.A.he represented her organization B.he could help weaken her painC.she would think of her friends D.her friends tried to fort her3.It can be inferred that ________.A.the author had suffered from cancerB.Lemon-Aide had suffered from cancerC.Lesa had recovered from cancerD.Lemon-Aide learned to look after the author4.Lesa and the author formed an organization to ________.A.cure cancer B.raise money C.help cancer patients D.help their friendBDo you often feel lonely? What do you do when you feel that way? Hide yourself away and spend your time reading, watching TV or walking around?You might think that feeling lonely is just like feeling happy, sad or scared —that it’s just one of your various moods. That is true. However, if you let yourself be lonely for too long without dealing with it, you could be making a serious mistake.Doctors have known for some time that feeling lonely is bad for the mind. It can lead to mentalhealth problems such as depression, stress and reduce confidence. “Being lonely means not feeling connected or cared for, but it’s not about being mentally alone,” Lisa Jaremka, scientist from Ohio State University, US, told Live Science in January. And there’s growing evidence that not having friends is connected with physical illness as well.In xx, for example, scientists studied 2,800 women who had cancer. They found that those who had few friends or family were five times more likely to die of their disease than women with many social contacts. Also, even healthy people had a better chance of falling ill if they felt left out by others, according to the BBC.The results have scientists thinking that loneliness might hurt the immune system(免疫系统), which protects the body from diseases.Hoping to prove this theory, Jaremka and her research team put volunteers(志愿者) through a stress test. During the test, volunteers were asked to make an unprepared speech in front of a group of stony-faced people. The researchers found that volunteers who said they were lonely in their daily lives felt more stress during the test. And their blood samples showed that all the stress had managed to cause harmful changes to their immune system.“Loneliness has been thought of in many ways as a chronic stressor(慢性增压器) —a socially painful situation that can last for quite a long time, ”explained Jaremka, who led the study.The number of people suffering from loneliness is increasing all over the world. However, solving the problem is easier said than done. It won’t work to just “tell anyone to go out and find someone to love you”, said Jaremka. “We need to create support networks.”5.If people feel lonely for a long time, ________.A. they won’t feel happy anymoreB. they are more mentally harmed than physicallyC. they will find the feeling goes away by itselfD. they are more likely to fall ill6.What was the purpose of the stress test carried out by Jaremka’s team?A. To find out how people fight diseases.B. To prove loneliness hurts people’s immune systems.C. To find out the relationship between loneliness and stress.D. To see how people’s emoti ons change when they give unprepared speeches.7.We can conclude from the article that ________.A. loneliness has bee the No. 1 killer in the worldB. loneliness is increasing due to advanced technologiesC. websites must be set up to help people deal with lonelinessD. much more work needs to be done to fight lonelinessCI told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to plain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I fort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overe. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspir ational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our making but many are no fault of our own. While we cannot choose the adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident.He was determined to fly again and went on to bee one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans.He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, you’ll never use crutches (拐杖) or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies (传记) of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overe the difficulties they faced. The mon thread is that they did not bee depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.8. Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A. Going to a gym is greatly beneficial to people’s health.B. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.C. Those who want to achieve success can’t expect to live an easy life.D. People’s attitude to adversity i s the only factor of their success.9. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “ .”A. Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.B. A bad workman quarrels with his tools.C. If you risk nothing, you will have nothing.D. Failure is the mother of success.10. Following this passage, the author will further talk about .A. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he facedB. why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversityC. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you faceD. what great people have in mon11. Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage?A. Life is full of adversityB. Different attitudes towards adversityC. Nothing is impossibleD. Face adversity with a smileDAmong all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured pletely, bringing happiness and moreliving days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span (寿命) can be prolonged.Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial (皇家的) family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not e out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the government must take care to control gene technology.12. What does “them” in the second paragraph refer to ?A. People with cancer or heart disease.B. Millions of people with serious diseases.C. Some diseases doctors can do nothing with.D. The two illnesses of cancer and heart disease13. What can gene technology do according to paragraph three?A. It can help the English imperial family out.B. It can be used to clone human babies.C. It can help people to give birth of a baby.D. It is likely to treat hereditary diseases.14. What are people worried about according to the passage?A. Human babies may be cloned in a large scale.B. Healthy human babies will soon be cloned.C. Scientists may well find the wrong genes.D. The government may not control gene techs.15. This passage is mainly written to _________________.A. show gene technology will benefit peopleB. show gene technology will do harm as wellC. tell that gene technology is a hot topicD. tell that gene technology is growing fast第二节:(共5小题;每小题2分,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。

She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I startedcollege, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to carefor her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.Then I got married with another dream: building my family with abination of adopted and biological children. In xx, we adopted our first son. Tolay eyes on him was fantastic -- and very emotional. A year later came our secondadopted boy. Then followed son No.3. In xx, I gave birth to another boy.You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys underthe age of 8! Our home was a plete zoo -- a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never didmake it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I hadonly one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away fromthe boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were timesI wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through therest of their lives.In xx, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It tookme over 21 years to get my college degree!I am not special, just single-minded. It always strikes me that whenyou're looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you'rein the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won't arrive in yourlife on one day. It's a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.56. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be ________.A. a writerB. a teacherC. a judgeD. a doctor57. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?A. She wanted to study by herself.B. She fell in love and got married.C. She suffered from a serious illness.D. She decided to look after her grandma.58. What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A. She was busy yet happy with her family life.B. She ignored her guilty feeling for her sons.C. She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.D. She was too confused to make a correct choice.59. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. Little by little, one goes far.C. Every coin has two sides.D. Well begun, half done.BDo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel the most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak es during the forenoon. For others it es in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as John talks to himself: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation for the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Adjust your cycle to some extent by staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. T his won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (打起精神) and work better at your low point.Begin with a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a slow yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do usual work in the afternoon and spend time doing important work for your high peak hours.60. According to Dr. Kleitman if you don’t want to get up in the morning ____________.A. you must be a lazy personB. you must catch a coldC. your energy cycle must be lowD. you should stay in bed61. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.B. Familiar monologues.C. Unawareness of energy cycles.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.62. If one wants to work better at his low point in the morning, he should ____________.A. change his energy cycleB. go to bed earlierC. overe his lazinessD. get up earlier than usual63. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will _________________.A. help you to control your temper early in the dayB. help to keep yo ur energy for the day’s workC. enable you to concentrate on your routine workD. keep your energy cycle under control all dayCAny discussion of English conversation, like any English conversation, must begin with〝 The Weather〞. And in this spirit of observing traditional rule, I shall quote Dr Johnson’ s famous ment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of the weather”, and point out that this observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago.This, however, is the point at which most people either stop, or try, and fail, to e up with a convincing explanation for the English “ addiction ” to the weather. They fail because their premise (前提) is mistaken: they assume that our conversations about the weather are conversations about the weather. In other words, they assume that we talk about the weather because we have a keen interest in the subject. Most of them then try to figure out what it is about the English weather that is so fascinating.Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that the English weather is not at all fascinating, and that our “addiction” to it is therefore very difficult to explain : “To an outsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it. A1l those phenomena that elsewhere give nature an edge of excitement, unpredictability and danger—tornados, monsoons, hailstorms—are almost wholly unknown in the British Isles.”Jeremy Paxman takes offence at Bryson’ s ments and argues that the English weather is truly fascinating:Bryson misses the point . The interest is less in the phenornena themselves , but in uncertainty. . . one of the few things you can say about England with absolute certainty is that it has a lot of weather. It may not include tropical cyclones but life at the edge of an ocean and the edge of a continent means you can never be entirely sure what you’ re going to get.My research has convinced me that both Bryson and Paxman are missing the point, which is that our conversations about the weather are not really about the weather at all: English weather – speak is a form of code, developed to help us overe our natural reserve (含蓄) and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows, for example, that “Nice day, isn’t it?”,“Ooh, isn’t it cold?”; and o ther variations on the theme are not requests for weather data: they are greetings or conversation -starters. In other words, English weather –speak is a form of “cleaning talk” ——the human equivalent of what is known as “social cleaning” among ourprimate(灵长类的)cousins, where they spend hours cleaning each other’s fur, even when they are perfectly clean, as a means of social connection.64. As is stated in the passage, most people try to find out .A. why the English weather is so uniqueB. whether the English enjoy their weatherC. why the English are so interested in the topic of weatherD. whether the English really talk about weather when they do so65. Disapproving of Bill Bryson’ s opinion, Jeremy Paxman argues that .A. the English talk about their weather because it is unpredictableB. the English don’ t talk about weather as often as the outsiders thinkC. the English weather can be as exciting as anywhere else’sD. the English weather talk is merely a form of small talk66. According to the author, English weather – speak is similar toprimates’ social cleaning in that they are both .A. ways of greetingB. means social connectionC.fascinating topics between peopleD. phenomena difficult to understand to outsidersDAbout ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green - a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.67. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can____________.A. tell different shapesB. see in a weak lightC. kill mosquitoesD. tell orange from yellow68. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color-blind womenC. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.69. Which of the statements about the color- blind is true?A. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.B. None of them can see deep red.C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.D. All of them see everything in shades of green.70. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________.A. red lightB. yellow lightC. blue lightD. green lightERome had the Forum (论坛). London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.Liz and Bill, two college graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street corners. And just talk.Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says, “ Talk to Me,” they attract conversationalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.They don’t collect money. They don’t push religion (宗教). So what’s the point?“ To see what happens,” said Liz. “ We simply enjoy life with open talk.” Shortly after the September 11, xx attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.“ It started as a crazy idea.” Liz said. “ We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their job, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything.”Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.Marcia had led her husband to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind.” Marcia said. “ To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,” she explained.To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people appeared, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something the two say they’ll consider before making a decision.71. What did Liz and Bill determine to do after the attack on September 11, xx?A. Telling stories to strangers.B. Setting up street signs.C. Talking with peopleD. Organizing a speaker’s party.72. What they have been doing can be described as ____________.A. pointless (无意义的)B. normal(正常的)C. crazyD. successful73. Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the text?A. They knew Liz and Bill very well.B. They happened to meet the writer of the text.C. They organized the get-together in the city park.D. They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.74. What will Liz and Bill do in the future?A. Go in for publishingB. Do more television programs.C. Continue what they are doingD. Spend more time reading books.75. How do they like the idea of writing a book?A. They have decided to wait a year or two.B. They will think about it carefullyC. They agreed immediatelyD. They find it hard to do that.第四部分写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分)文中有10处语言错误, 每句中最多有两处。

AMy 16-year-old son, Anton, had gone to the local swimming hole. Most of the kids swim there, and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors, so I had no fears for his safety.Still, the firefighter's first words "You need to come up here to the Stillwater River" made me catch my breath, and his follow-up words gave me relief: “ Your son is OK.”When I got to the river, I immediately saw the firetruck, ambulance and Anton, wrapped with a towel about his shoulders, sitting quietly on a low platform of the fire engine.I hurried over to him. "You OK?"I asked.”Yeah," was all he said. But my eyes begged for an explanation, I didn't get it from my son, however, who tends to play his cards close to his vest.The story was this: A woman was being swept under water. Hearing the cries, Anton and his friend Tyler, without hesitation, swam out to her, and brought her safely to shore.In an age in which the word "hero" is broadcast with abandon and seemingly applied to anyone who make it through the day, I realized the real thing in my son. The teens are stubborn and self-centred, but that didn't mean they have no desire to do good.Still shocked by my son's daring, I drove him home. Along the way, I tried to dig out some more information from him - but he had precious little to say. The only words he said were,”What's for sup per?"I spent some time alone that evening, thinking about the tragedy that might have been. The next morning, when Anton got up, I half expected him to tell me the story. But all he did was toast some bread, pull himself together, and head for the door to start a new day. Watching from the window,1 was reminded that still water often runs deep.21.Why did the mother allow her son to swim there?A. He was an excellent swimmer. B.The water of the river is shallow.C. He was old enough to swim. D.The rocks can be of help if there's danger.22.The underlined part "who tends to play his cards close to his vest" probably means A. Anton is a boy fond of swimming with other kidsB. Anton is unwilling to tell others what he thinksC. Anton always has a desire to help othersD. Anton seldom changes his mind23.In the mother's eyes, what her son did wasA. dangerous but interestingB. meaningful but difficultC. unexpected and courageousD. awful and absurd24. What might be the best title for the passage?A. My Son, My Hero B. Anton, A Silent BoyC. A Good Deed D.A Proud MotherBMaybe you don’t think animals have certain mental powers which human beings do not have. But the truth is that some of them have instincts, and besides this, I am sure they can feel certain things we humans cannot. A personal experience showed me this.Some years ago, I had a dog named Howard. From the time when he was a puppy, he was timid(胆怯的), so we named him Howard, sounding like “coward”(懦夫)! He was especially afraid of thunderstorms. At the first flash of lightning or crash of thunder, he would run whining(惨叫) into his house and hide under a table.I often went for a walk with Howard. Once, as we were walking along a road, it began to rain. I quickly ran to a bus stop for shelter. The bus stop had a roof supported by metal poles. Soon after I had got there, Howard caught my trousers in his teeth and tried to pull me away. At first I was puzzled and a little angry at his behavior. But I decided to humor him and walked away from the shelter into the rain and started to go home.When I was about two hundred metres from the shelter, there came a flash of lightning and soon after, there was thunder which nearly deafened me. Howard stopped walking and began whining. Thinking he was afraid, I bent to pick him up. As I straightened up, I glanced at the bus shelter we had just left. I was shocked to see that two of the poles were bent and the roof was lying on the ground, broken. The shelter had been struck by the bolt of lightning!25. The author named his dog Howard mainly because of_______.A. his timid characteristicB. one of the author’s friends HowardC. his loud soundD. his strange behaviors26. The reason why the author was puzzled and angry with the dog was that .A. Howard had a strange behaviorB. Howard should be afraid of the metal polesC. Howard should know the approaching of the terrible lightningD. Howard bit his trousers in his teeth27. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Dogs are cleverer and better than men.B. Dogs are usually afraid of thunderstorms.C. Some animals can feel certain things humans cannot.D. Dogs are naturally born heroes.28. What can be inferred about the bus shelter from the passage?A. It was about 200 meters from the author’s home.B. It was destroyed in a rainy day.C. Its roof was supported by wood poles.D. It could produce blinding flash of lightning.CChinese media and Internet users on Monday condemned(谴责) lack of morals in society after a toddler(学步的幼儿) was struck twice –by two different vans-and left bleeding on the road as more than a dozen bystanders did nothing to help the seriously injured girl.The incident, captured by a surveillance (监控)camera and broadcast by Southern Television Guangdong (TVS),showed the two-year-old girl was knocked down and run over by a white van on a narrow market street on the afternoon of Oct.13, in Foshan City of Guangdong Province.The driver fled the scene of the accident,leaving the girl to bleed on the sidewalk.Over the next six minutes,more than a dozen people walked by the girl,yet not one individual did anything to help her.The girl was then hit a second time by another van before an elderly trash collector came to her aid and brought the attention of the girl’s mother, according to the video and eyewitnesses.Doctors said that the girl, who was put on life support after being hospitalized,remains in a deep coma.The girl’s parents,who are migrants living in the city,are now with her.Police said the drivers of both vehicles have been arrested.However,the apathy (冷漠) of the bystanders shown in the video has shocked the public,as Internet forums have seethed with anger, and people are questioning the morality of society.High moral standards were once triumphed (成功)as national pride in China where individuals known for selflessly helping others were adored by the public.But in recent years,the perception(观念)of a decline of morals has become a hot topic as profit and materialism ar e perceived to be affecting society’s values.On Sept.2 an 88-year-old man in central China collapsed,his face striking the pavement.Yet,no one came to his aid, and he ended up choking to death on the bloodfrom his nose.Some have linked the absence of good Samaritans (模范人物)to a previous case in which a man trying to help an elderly woman who fell was accused of harming her.A strong chorus of opinion on the Internet says laws should exempt(免除)Samaritans from liability(责任), yet laws themselves cannot solve society’s morality dilemma.Cao Lin, a China Youth Daily commentator,said in a signed article published on Monday that the worry of liability should not be an excuse for not helping, and this case exposes the decline of humanity in Chinese society.29.According to the passage,what would happen if someone helped others selflessly in the past?A.He/ she would be condemned by the public.B.He/ she would be awarded by the government.C.He/ she would have to worry about liability.D.The public would feel proud of him/ her and thus showed love and respect for him/ her30.Which of the following is TRUE about this passage?A.Nobody helped the girl who was struck twice by two different vans.B.The toddler died immediately after she was hit a second time.C.High moral standards were once regarded as national pride in China.D.Journalists from TVS captured the incident by using a camera.31.In recent years,society’s values is believed to be affected by .A.profit and materialism B.people’s perceptionsC.the apathy of bystanders D.the morals of society32.Where is the article most probably taken from?A.A fashion magazine.B.A news report.C.A science fiction.D.An education column.DAs we know, many teen celebrities(名人) feel and think that having a slimmer figure can do great good to them. But, does size really matter? Are teenage fans trying hard to become like their celebrity idols(偶像)? Do celebrities really have the power to influence people, especially teenagers?For the longest time, many parents blame teen idols for influencing the way their kids act. Have you noticed how teens idolize the celebrities these days? Even, their personal affairs are being followed by kids these days. Take for example the case of Lindsay Lohan of Mary Kate Ashley. They are definitely famous teen stars. But, since they are trying to project an image to satisfy a lot of people in show business,their health and body suffer. Many kids are aware of this problem. But they are easily influenced by these celebrities to exercise and eat less.It is a fact that the media, and especially famous teen celebrities, can influence people powerfully. But teenagers are easily influenced because teenage years are the period when our personality and identity developments take place. Teens watching TV shows and reading magazines are easily pulled into the dieting and harmful eating habits because the media have some ways to pull these acts. They use thin models and celebrities to endorse(做广告宣传) products or to star in an up-and –coming shows or movies. With fierce competition, celebrities are forced to eat less and do extreme exercise routines to get the roles or offers that come their way.Living in today’s time and generation is a bit disturbing to a lot of parents. Media, especially as well as the celebrities, have a very powerful influence to drive teenagers to good or bad. It’s good that we can control ourselves to avoid bad things from happening. If not, parents should really be aware and guide their teens to deter mine what’s in ad what’s out.33. From the passage we can find Lindsay Lohan .A. lives an unhealthy lifestyleB. lives a rich and happy lifeC. doesn’t get any exerciseD. sets a good example for teenagers34. According to the writer, why are teenagers easily influenced by some TV shows?A. They are tired of school.B. Their celebrity idols appear in many TV shows.C. They’re in their development period.D. They have nothing to do in their spare time35. Many celebrities have to be on diet .A. to keep healthy to face competitionB. to survive under pressureC. to keep a slim sizeD. to satisfy their teenage fans36. What’s the title of the passage?A. Parents’ responsib ilities.B. Advice on self-control.C. Bad influences of celebrities.D. Media’s bad influences.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,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。

Activities like playing computer games, going o n the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn’t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned (皱眉)upon by their children and grandchildren?Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn’t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says: 揑find it very relaxing. It’s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”Another development that has favored 揼rey games? is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There’s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(策略)and simulation(模拟)games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challengers, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that 揼rey gamers? simply don’t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the 揼rey gamers may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them.24.

About 6 percent said they are targeted by bul lies on campus every day. The survey also found that students from ordinary schools experienced more bullying than peers from key institutions, and children from poor families are more likely to be bullied at school.Being bullied can have a negative impact on a child’s personal development and academic performance, according to Zhou Jinyan, a researcher who led the study at Beijing Normal University. 揅hildren being bullied will find it hard to trust others,? Zhou said. 揟hey may often feel anxiety, anger, resentment or depression. These emotions will further undermine their ability to control their own life.”In recent years, bullying on Chinese campuses has been frequently reported and has attracted widespread attention and concern. The most recent incident to arouse heated discussions took place in December at Beijing’s Zhongguancun No.2 Primary School. A fourth-grade student was bullied and laughed at by classmates, causing him acute stress disorder.The Supreme People’s Procuratorate (最高人民检察院) received about 1,900 cases related to school bullying in 2016. Meanwhile, there was a notable increase in bullying reports involving middle school students from 14 to 18 years old.Zhou came up with some ways to solve the problem, including boosting communication between teachers, parents and students and trying to establish more harmonious relationships among children. She said itwas strongly suggested that parents try to be involv ed in their children’s educational experience, as their presence and companionship have proved effective in reducing bullying and its negative effects. 28.Who is the most likely to become the target of bullying?A. A 10-year-old boy from a poor familyB. A 17-year-old boy from a rich familyC. A 17-year-old girl from an ordinary schoolD. A 10-year-old girl from a key school29.Being bullied will cause students to go through the following EXCEPT _____.A. a lack of trust in other peopleB. a drop in the sense of depressionC. a lack of ability to manage their lifeD. a drop in academic performance30.We can learn from the text that _____.A. bullying on campus has been brought into sharp focus by the mediaB.students who enjoy parents’ companionship will be bullying-freeC. the government should consider taking further action against bullying at schoolD. bullying at school usually leads to acute stress disorder31.What can be the best title for the text?A. Negative effects on children caused by bullyingB. Is anything we can do about bullying?C. The reasons for bullying on campusD. Bullying affects half of the studentsDA typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭子)and a chair. The whip get all of the attention, but i t’s mostly for show. In reality, it’s the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided , the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achiever (e,g. lose weight, start a business, travel more ) –only to end up confused byall of the options in front of you and never make progress ?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you w ant to accomplish, someone you want to become ?.take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out the way .32.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A. To trick the lion.B. To show off his skill .C. To get ready for a fight.D. To entertain the audience.33.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A. They feel puzzled over choices.B. They hold on to the wrong things.C. They find it hard to make changes.D. They have to do something for show.34.What is the author’s attitude towards the experts mentioned in paragraph 3?A. TolerantB. DoubtfulC. RespectfulD. Supportive35.When the world is 搘aving a chair in your face?, you’re advised to_____.A. wait for a better chanceB. break your old habitsC. Concentrate on your goalD. ask for clear guidance第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,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。
