APoetry, one of the essential art forms of literature(文学),is a brief and easy way to express our feelings. Moreover, everyone understands it in their own way. Some find relief in poems; some read them simply for peace; some read poems for simple artistic pleasure.There are some special features of poetry, which make it quite different from other forms of literature. First of all, poems have rhythmic patterns. Generally most parts of a poem follow the same form of rhythm. Poems may have rhyme, but they don't have to. The lines are neatly arranged together so that they express a particular feeling or emotion.There can be various types of poems but according to the pattern or the form, there are mainly three types:匕丫1记5(抒情诗):The lyric mainly concentrates on human thoughts and emotions rather than a story. Lyrics always bear song-like appeal. These are mainly short poems. Popular lyric poem forms are the elegy, the ode and the sonnet. William Shakespeare, Edmund Waller and Keats are some of the greatest lyric writers of all times.Narrative poems(叙事诗):This type of poetry tells a story. Narrative poems are usually long poems. Epics(史诗)and ballads fall under this type. Some of the greatest epic poets are John Milton, Dante, Edgar Allan Poe, Alexander Pope, William Shakespeare, etc.Dramatic poems(戏剧诗):Any drama that is written in verse is a dramatic poem. These poems generally tell a story. Black verse, dramatic monologue(独白)and closet drama belong to this type. William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson are some of the greatest dramatic poets.Whatever the form is, one thing, which cannot be denied, is that poetry is one of the most powerful tools to express our feelings.1.What do we know about lyrics?①They are similar to songs.②They usually tell stories.③They are not very long.④The sonnet is a type of lyrics.A.①②③B.②③④C.①②④D.①③④2.We can know from the text that.A.poems are weak in showing feelingsB.some poets write more than one type of poem 普宁一中2019-2020学年度高二第二学期第一次月考英语试题1C.narrative poems are shorter than lyric poemsD.the sonnet and the ballad belong to the same type3.This passage is written mainly to .A.tell us some simple facts about poetryB.teach us how to write poemsC.give some advice on reading poemsD.make us interested in poems【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。

“Long time no see” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s email, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect 21 of Chinglish. Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal(照字面意思的) translation of the Chinese greeting with a ruined English grammar and structure! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American 22 . I was too amazed to believe her. Her words could not convince me 23 . So I did a search on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages 24 “long time no see”. This sentence has been 25 used in emails, letters, newspapers, movies, books, or any other possible place. Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. 26 , if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.Nobody knows the 27 of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully 28 a world wide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting(引用) Confucius(孔子). “Long time no see” was his trademark. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world thanks to the popularity of these movies.Some scholars compare America to a huge pot of stew(大熔炉). All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together, and they 29 the color and taste of each other. American Chinese, though a minority ethnic(少数民族的) group in the United States, is also influenced some changes to the stew! Language is usually the first thing to be 30 in the mixed stew.21. A. word B. sign C. example D. change22. A. custom B. greeting C. habit D. proverb23. A. almost B. in all C. at all D. after all24. A. publishing B. printing C. containing D. expressing25.

By the end of World War Ⅱthese wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans.__【3】__It included such items as automobiles and new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life­enriching” level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Amongthem are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. __【4】_On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. _【5】_In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A.Then a third level appeared.B.Human wants seem endless.C.When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants,another level appears.D.There are several levels of wants in one’s life.E.At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health,safety, and leisure.F.Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.G.Different people have different wants on each level.全国高三高中英语专题试卷答案及解析一、单项选择1. ________into English, the sentence was found to have an entirely different word order.(2011·天津) A.Translating B.TranslatedC.To translate D.Having translated【答案】B【解析】B[考查非谓语动词。

I live in Illinois.I am 23.I have 12 tattoos and three piercings.I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector.You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs up on my art work.People on the street stop me to look at the tattoo on my leg.Most of them don't know what it is.They just think the work itself is great. Subotai from California:I'm not forbidden of self-expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder.In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion.A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin.It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow's.Jackson from Ohio:I don't think it is wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything—I think that's ridiculous.People who get the big “dragons that cover the whole body—I don't think that's necessary.” When I see naked chicks on guys, I think, “You have no respect for women.”【1】Who doesn't think tattoos and piercings except ear piercing are beautiful?A.Jackson.B.Lee.C.Tiara.D.Subotai.【2】We can conclude that ________.A.tattoos and piercings are a new kind of elegant artB.all the teachers in the West are in favour of tattoos and piercingsC.everything is changeable as time goes onD.it is necessary to live with different views of beauty【3】The best title for this passage is probably ________.A.Body Art or Causing DamageB.Doing Damage to the Young People's BodiesC.Young People's Different CuriositiesD.The Latest Fashion2.This is What a REAL Silver Dollar Looks LikeIf you trust in the yen, the euro,and the dollar...stop reading.Because this is a story aboutthe sliver coin EVERYBODY wants.You read the headlines.You know that troubled economic times have put global currency on a rollercoaster(过山车) ride.But millions have found a smarter way to build long-term value with high-grade collectable silver.And right now, those people are lining up to secure some of the last 2012 U.S.Mint Silver Eagles, America's Newest Silver Eagle Dollars.

Some careers that have been traditionally dominated(支配)by the male species have been made open and filled up by women as well. It is no longer a surprising occurrence today to see many women working as pilots, astronauts, engineers, in construction sites, and in the printing business that operates high-tech machines.Many women are also taking their chances on managerial and executive positions that mostly men are the ones sitting on. Many of them also do well in the line of education as teachers, deans and even presidents of universities. You can also see many women as lecturers and reviewers of different businesses. One example is that of the online printing company reviews where women usually have a say on what is the best choice for online printers for any marketing needs.From the income that women are getting from their work, they are able to maintain a family and able to provide a better education for their children and able to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle.However, there are still pronounced biases (偏见) against women in high leadership positions. There still exists the so-called gender-role stereotyping. Women need help to cope with and manage the typical stereotyping of women workers and managers. Those who look for jobs advertised in the classified sections of the newspaper often discover that many corporate positions are closed to women. And most often than not, many give preference to men by indicating in their ads phrases such as “male preferred” or “male applicants only”. Even in some family run or owned corporations, seldom can you see women managers and presidents.Surveys show that although a man and a woman have the same level or handle the same position in an organization, the man would get a higher or bigger compensation package(薪酬) compared to women. Because of this, many women are just contented,to be in subordinate positions in finance, human resources, sales, manufacturing and other supportive roles.There are still other barriers that prevent women from reaching their full potentials in the world of employment. Our culture does not encourage women to excel in government and in business-related jobs. Women who are able to make it on top and handle leadership roles are sometimes regarded merely as tokens. The abilities and skills of women are normally questioned by their own peers, and sadly even by other women.If you are a woman who have the interest, ability and drive to pursue management careers,career counseling is of great help to help you find direction and increase motivation to pursue your career goals. It will help you have the self-confidence to get you in the same career opportunities open to men in this society that still prefers men for top level positions.【1】From the first paragraph we know that women________.A.work mainly to help meet the rising costs of livingB.want to provide their children with better educationC.also want to take some more challenging jobsD.have taken up some work that men can do well【2】It can be inferred that in the past it was surprising to see women________.A.taking jobs outside homeB.working as pilots or astronautsC.educating their children at homeD.operating machines at home【3】The underlined word “subordinate” in the 5th paragraph has a similar meaning to“________”.A.higher B.lowerC.more rewarding D.less demanding【4】What's the best title for the passage?A.Women working out of housesB.Women fighting against biasesC.Women getting larger incomeD.Women aiming high in careers全国高三高中英语专题试卷答案及解析一、单项选择1.—It's a pity that Andrew didn't want to go to the conference.—________ willing to go,we could have paid all his expenses.A.Had he been B.BeingC.Was he D.He had been【答案】A【解析】考查虚拟语气与倒装。

This idea came to Su Enlu and his girlfriend one day. They were talking about the 4 of a weekend trip when Su said, half-jokingly, that they might just go to France.5 doing some online research and talking with people who'd been there, they decided to take the plunge.

By trying out ideas and solving problems one by one,they are now getting closer to one answer.One funny idea is that animals might have a built-in compass(指南针).Our earth itself is a big magnet(磁体).So a little magnetic needle that swings freely lines itself with the big earth magnet to point north and south. When people discovered that idea about a thousand years ago and invented the compass,it allowed sailors to navigate (航海)on ocean voyages, even under cloudy skies.Actually the idea of the living compass came just from observing animals in nature. Many birds migrate twice a year between their summer homes and winter homes. Some of them fly for thousands of kilometers and mostly at night. Experiments have shown that some birds can recognize star patterns. But they can keep on course even under cloudy skies. How can they do that?A common bird that does not migrate but is great at finding its way home is the homing pigeon. Not all pigeons can find their way home. Those that can are very good at it,and they have been widely studied.One interesting experiment was to attach little magnets to the birds’ heads to block their magnetic sense—just as a loud radio can keep you from hearing a call to dinner. On sunny days, that did not fool the pigeons. Evidently they can use the sun to tell which way they are going. But on cloudy days,the pigeons with magnets could not find their way. It was as if the magnets had blocked their magnetic sense.Similar experiments with the same kind of results were done with honeybees. These insects also seem to have a special sense of direction.In spite of the experiments,the idea of an animal compass seemed pretty extraordinary. How would an animal get the magnetic stuff for a compass.An answer came from an unexpected source. A scientist was studying bacteria that live in the mud of ponds and marshes. He found accidentally little rod-like bacteria that all swam together in one direction—north.Further study showed that each little bacterium had a chain of dense particles inside,which proved magnetic. The bacteria had made themselves into little magnets that could line up with the earth’s magnet.The big news was that a living thing,even a simple bacterium,can make magnetite. That led to a search to see whether animals might have it.. By using a special instrument called magnetometer,scientists were able to find magnetite in bees and birds,and even in fish. In each animal,except for the bee. the magnetic stuff was always in or closer to the brain. Thus, the idea of a built—in animal compass began to seem reasonable.The Magnetic Sense — The Living Compass Passage outline Supporting detailsThe existence of the earth magnet and the invention of the navigating compass ◇Our earth is a big magnet and a little freely (1) ▲magnetic needle lines itself with the earth magnet to point north and south.◇(2) ▲ on the idea above, the navigating compass was invented.The possibility of birds’ built-in compasses ◇One piece of evidence is the (3) ▲ of many birds between their summer homes and winter homes.◇Birds can recognize star patterns on clear nights and keep on course (4) ▲ under cloudy skiesThe (5) ▲ on pigeons’ and bees’ built-in compasses ◇Little magnets were tied to the pigeons’ heads to (6)▲their magnetic sense.◇The pigeons’ magnetic sense seemed to be affected on (7)▲ days.◇Similar things with the same results were done with bees.The (8) ▲ of the magnetic stuff for the animal compass ◇Little rod-like bacteria were found by chance to swim together in the direction of (9) ▲ .◇Some animals had a chain of dense magnetic particles in or close to the (10) ▲ inside their bodies.1:C Is后是表地点的表从。
