高二上学期第13周英语限时训练

高二上学期第13周英语限时训练阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”36. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless37. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person38. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use39. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.BMr. Fitzpatrick has given much attention to his “Weight reduction” (减轻体重) programs. Just last year, for example, when he was the main speaker at the company dinner, he said he put on twenty pounds instead of losing thirty he promised he would.The year before that, he joined a health club. He exercised every day and ate less food. At the end of three months, however, he began making excuses about why he couldn’t go there more often.After the health club failed to work, he joined Weight Watchers but stopped going because he was the only man there. And he hated following any of the diet programs. Fitz’s latest idea is to join a walking club to “walk off” the weight.41. Mr. Fitzpatrick was ________ when spoke at the company dinner last year.A. lighter than the year beforeB. planning to go on a dietC. heavier than the year beforeD. with the Weight Watchers42. He did not stay with Weight Watchers because ________.A. he couldn’t do as the diet programs required himB. he felt uncomfortable being watched by womenC. the members of Weight Watchers were all women but himD. both A and C43. Which of the following can best explain the main idea of the passage?A. There is no good way to lose weight.B. One can do nothing without a strong will.C. There are different ways to lose weight.D. Walking is the best way of losing weight.CNo one could have failed to be moved had he watched the live televised volleyball game between the Chinese and Cuban women’s teams. As we sat before the television set, with our eyes fixed on the screen, we experienced every kind of feeling. When the two teams played neck and neck, we were on pins and needles, anxious as to what would come next, and when our team fell behind our hearts were in our mouths. Watching the game between those two teams is not only a matter of great joy. For more than that it provides food for thought. Just see how the Chinese women won the game ──by their co ──operation (合作), by their excellent skill, their effort and strong will. A Chinese saying goes, “When two competent opponents (比赛的双方) meet, the strong ──minded one will win. “This is the spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team. If every Chinese showed some of the spirit, never losing heart in times of difficulty and remaining clear ──minded in times of advantage (优势), then our nation would stand in the vanguard (前列) of the world family of nations, just as the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team has done, is doing and will do.44. While watching the game, we _____.A. had feelings of different kindB. enjoyed a friendly and wonderful gameC. clapped and cheered only for the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamD. were eager to know what would happen later on45. The wonderful game _____.A. brought us great joyB. provided us with food for our thoughtsC. gave us not only great joy but also food for thoughtsD. give us a valuable amusement46. The author believed that _____.A. the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team was the strongestB. China was sure to become stronger and stronger if only we have that spirit of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball TeamC. The Chinese must remain clear-minded in time of advantageD. The Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team never lost heart in times of difficulty47. The best title of the passage might be _____.A. Watching a Close Volleyball GameB. The Spirit of the Chinese Women’s Voll eyball TeamC. Learn from the Members of the Volleyball TeamD. The Strong ──Minded Are the WinnersDIf you wish to become a better reader, here are four important points to remember about rate, or speed, of reading:1. Knowing why you are reading—what you are reading to find out—will often help you to know whether to read rapidly or slowly.2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, arithmetic problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant for enjoyment, news, and letters from friends, items, or bits of news from local, or hometown, paper, telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.4. In some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow to fast, as you go along. You need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.48. According to the passage, your reading speed depends on ________.A. whether the reading material is easy or difficultB. what you are readingC. what your purpose in reading something isD. both B and C49. If one wants to be relaxed by reading, one should take up ________.A. a story bookB. a book on science and technologyC. news, letters from friendsD. some material full of information50. Which of the following readings should you read slowly and carefully?A. Fairy tales.B. Aesop’s Fables.C. Directions for use of a machineD. An evening paper.51. Which of the following can best express the main idea of the passage?A. How to decide your reading speed.B. How to raise your reading speed.C. How to improve your reading skills.D. How to choose your reading materials.EThe man from the west stopped and drew back his arm. "You’re not Jimmy Wells," he said in a quick and angry way, "Twenty years is a long time, but not long e nough to change a man’ nose from a Roman to pug." "It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man, "you’ve been under arrest for ten minutes. Silky Bob. Chicago thinks you may have dropped over our way and phones us she wants to have a word with you. Going quietly, are you? That’s sensible. Now before we go to the station here’s a note I was asked to hand you. You may read it here at the window. It’s from Patrolman Wells.?" The man from the West opened the little piece of paper handed him. His hand was steady when he began to read, but it trembled a little by the time he finished. The note was rather short. Bob: I was at the right place on time. When you struck the match to light your cigar I saw it was the face wanted inChicago. Somehow I couldn’t do it myself, so I went around and got a plain clothes man (便衣) to do the job.52.

Besides, get alongcomfort gettingwell with animals will make our life interesting. However, the rest students areagainst the idea.

And all the money from the ticket sales is going to go to a children’s charity.W: Oh, that makes sense, then. Hugo told me a few weeks ago that they were going to play at a special charity event.M: So, do you still want me to order the tickets?W: Yeah, sure.

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期高二英语第十三周周练试卷命题人:汪佳嘉第一节:阅读理解(每题 2.5分,共10分)What is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, chemistry, geology, engineering, medical or any other science? We all know that science plays an important role in the societies in which we live. Many people believe, however, that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first of these is the application of the machines and products that scientists and technologists develop. New drugs, faster and safer means of transport, new systems of applied knowledge are some examples of this aspect of science.The second aspect is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientistsuse in their work. What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems thata successful scientist is full of curiosity — he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually directs his attention towards problems which he notices have no satisfactory explanation, and his curiosity makes him look for underlying relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions, whether of pure or applied knowledge, and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.He is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and applies persistent and logical thought to the observations he makes. He uses the facts he observes to the full extent. For example, trained observers acquire a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum.He is skeptical —he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available — and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Furthermore, he is not only critical of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend todisturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data, which are notonly complex but also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants tomake hypotheses of how processes work and how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.32. Many people believe that science helps society to progress through __________.A. applied knowledgeB. more than one aspectC. technology onlyD. the use of machines33. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about curiosity?A. It gives the scientist confidence and pleasure in work.B. It gives rise to interest in problem that are unexplained.C. It leads to efforts to investigate potential connections.D. It encourages the scientists to look for new ways of acting.34. According to the passage, a successful scientist would not __________.A. easily believe in unchecked statementsB. easily criticize others’ research workC. always use his imagination in workD. always use evidence from observation35. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Application of technology.B. Progress in modern society.C. Scientists’ way of thinking and acting.D. How to become a successful scientist.第二节:七选五(每题3分,共15分)More and more bosses worldwide are expecting their workers to be good at two or even morelanguages.
