But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have thepotential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential ofself-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.1.What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A.Curious.B.Doubtful.C.Indifferent.D.Optimistic.2.What is the modified Ford Fusion?A.A kind of autonomous vehicle.B.A fleet of driverless taxis.C.A road for driverless cars.D.A retirement community.3.What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?A.Driverless cars’disadvantages.ernments’right decisions.C.Benefits to the aged and the disabled.D.The regulations are forward-thinking.4.What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A.The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.B.Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.C.The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.D.The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.7、Since so much written language we see today comes from a glowing screen, language has begun to change through our interaction with technology. Social media and the Internet have had a rapid and great effect on the English language, and not necessarily for the better. More and more people have found themselves writing in pieces of words and using unclear acronyms(单词首字母) both in written and spoken language.How many times have you typed “LOL”in response to a humorous message? Referred to someone as your “BFF”? Exclaimed, “OMG!”during a particularly shocking event? Social media has affected the words we use in our everyday life. Abbreviations and acronyms commonly known as “text talk”have made their way into both spoken and written language. These are becoming increasingly popular as people struggle for brief expressions to meet word limits on social media like Weibo and Twitter. In addition, the speed of the Internet means language is changing faster than ever. You no longer have to be published through physical and traditional means to bring word trends to public attention.Many people believe the overuse of these new terms is a passing trend, and nobody will be using them in just a couple of decades. With thechange of language, older terms will surely disappear and fall out of style, and newer and more Internet language will take their place.But the Oxford English Dictionary thinks the contrary. In 2011, a lot of Internet terms including, “LOL,”“BPB,”“OMD,”and “BFF”were added to the dictionary, making these acronyms official parts of the English language. According to the dictionary writers, these terms aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.The words you use in everyday life are a reflection of yourself; this is especially true on the Internet with the lack of interaction in real life. With the Internet and social media rapidly getting popular, soon your words may be all you have left. Make them good ones.1.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Social Media and the English LanguageB.The Use of New Internet LanguageC.The Internet and Social MediaD.The Change of the Internet and English2.What is one reason for people’s use of acronyms?A.The decrease of physical and traditional booksB.People’s need for quick response to different messagesC.The lack of people’s interaction with technologiesD.People’s need to meet word limits on social media3.The “new terms”are considered to be part of a passing trend because_________ .A.they are not published in a traditional wayB.they are not used as formal languageC.they’ll be replaced by even newer onesD.they are not supported by dictionary writers4.The writer of the passage thinks that Internet languages ________.A.have positive influenceB.should be properly usedC.are getting more popularD.are useless for interaction完形填空8、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A, B, C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

第十天一、美文晨读Something wonderful in a disasterOn May 27, 1995, our life was suddenly changed. It happened a few minutes past three, when my husband, Chris, fell from his horse as it jumped over a fence. Chris was paralyzed from the chest down, unable to breathe normally. As he was thrown from his horse, we entered into a life of convenience with lots of unexpected challenges. We went from the "haves" to the “have-nots". Or so we thought.Yet what we discovered later were all the gifts that came out of sharing difficulties. We came to learn that something wonderful could happen in a disaster. All over the world people cared for Chris so much that letters and postcards poured in every day. By the end of the third week in a medical center in Virginia, about 35,000 pieces of mail had been received and sorted.As a family, we opened letter after letter. They gave us comfort and became a source of strength for us. We used them to encourage ourselves. I would go to the pile of letters marked with "Funny" if we needed a laugh, or to the "Disabled" box to find advice from people in wheelchairs or even in bed living happily and successfully.These letters, we realized, had to be shared. And so here we offer one of them to you.Dear Chris,My husband and I were so sorry to hear of your riding accident last week. No doubt your family and your friends are giving you the strength to face this technical challenge. People everywhere are also giving you best wishes every day and we are among those who are keeping you alive.Yours Sincerely,Nancy Reagan二、词汇训练1.

Monday introduced its first-ever " intelligent bicycle , fitted with electronic devices to help bring clown the high accident rate among elderly cyclists in the bicycle-mad country．Developed for the government by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research （TNO）, the intelligent bicycle, runs on electricity．A commercial-available bicycle isexpected to be on the market in the next two years andshould sell for between 1, 700 to 3, 200 euros per bicycle．The devices on the bike are linked through an onboardcomputer with a vibrating （震动的）warning system fittedin the bicycle's saddle and handlebars to warn cyclists of thecoming danger.The saddle vibrates when other cyclists approach frombehind, while, the handlebars do the same when barriers appear ahead．" Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get a fright when they are passed at high speed," said Maurice Kwakkernaat, one of TNO's research scientists involved in the project．"The onboard system technology has already been at work in the car industry," he said．'' More and more elderly people are using a bicycle, not only for short distances, but also for longer distances," Dutch Environment and Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen told AFP．"This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue to enjoy cycling," she said．In the Netherlands, bicycles outnumber the population of 17 million by at least one million and there are some 25,000 km of bicycle path in the country．Those statistics are set to grow as more and more people take to two-wheeled transport, leading to an increased risk of injury．Last year, 184 cyclists died in the country, of which 124, or 67% , were older than 65, according to the Central Statistics Office．The year before, 200 cyclists died, the majority of victims also being elderly．The current model weighs 25 kilograms but researchers are working on making the onboard systems smaller．63．The "intelligent bicycle is aimed to ______．A．protect the environment B．help reduce traffic pressureC．popularize the use of bicycles D．improve safety for elderly cyclists 64．Which part of the intelligent bicycle will vibrate when other cyclists approach it from behind?A．The saddle． B．The wheels．C．The handlebars．D．The onboard computer．65．We can learn from the passage that ______．A．the elderly ride bicycles wherever they goB．the elderly are planning to give up cyclingC．the number of elderly cyclists is decreasingD．the accident rate among elderly cyclists is high66．Which is the best title for the passage?A．A Test Bicycle B．Elderly CyclistsC．A Smart Bicycle D．A Bicycle-mad CountryDA generation of parents raised according to the permissive principles of postwar childcare experts is rediscovering the importance of saying "No" to their children．They are beginning to reclaim the house as their own．Even spanking （打屁股）is back．While today's parents do not want to return to the Victorian era （时代）—when children were seen, spanked, but not heard—there is a growing acknowledgement that the laissez-faire approach produced a generation of children running rings around puzzled parents struggling to restore order．Janthea Brigden, a trainer with Parent Network, says: " The problem is that parents don't want all that controlling things．What they want is to be able to discipline （管教）their children through teaching and encouraging．"According to Steve Biddulph, the author of More Secrets of Happy Children, the permissive era was often just an excuse to ignore children．He believes discipline involves firm but friendly teaching and does not need to involve punishment．He teaches a method called "stand and think" , where a child is helped to figure out what is wrong and how to get it right．Mr．Biddulph understands parents using spanking, but lie is against it．"The happiest children are those who know Mum and Dad are in charge．As children grow into their teens, more negotiation can take place, such as: Prove you can be home safely by 1l pm, and we might let you stay out till midnight．"" There is no good evidence that an occasional, properly administered spanking is harmful in any way．" says John Rosemond, an American who has won a huge following by calling for "parent power"．It is pure nonsense to believe that restricting children to their room as a punishment could make them have negative feelings about the room and cause sleep problems．Mr．Rosemond tracks the overturning of traditional family values to the end of the Second World War．He blames the change of the American family into a child-centered, self-respect-oriented （以…为导向）unit on psychologists and social workers, who for 30 years have weakened traditional approaches．Previous generations of American parents raised children not by the book, but by self-evident truth, he says．Children should be seen and hot heard．If you make your bed, you'll have to lie in it．He says that those phrases contain time-honored understanding and principles that helped children to develop what we refer to as the "three Rs" of parenting: respect, responsibility and resourcefulness．67．Which is closest to the meaning of the underlined word "laissez-faire" in the second paragraph?A．Let it be．B．Go for it．C．Get it right．D．Take it easy．68．If his child did something wrong, Steve Biddulph would ______．A．give him a good beatingB．lock him up in a dark roomC．ask him to stand in a corner for hoursD．help him find out the problem and solution69．By mentioning the underlined part in the last paragraph, Mr．Rosemond ．A．blames parents for ignoring children's rightsB．reminds parents to communicate more with childrenC．encourages parents to involve children more in family affairsD．explains how previous generations of parents raised children70．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The causes of discipline problems．B．The best way to discipline children．C．Different opinions on ways of parenting．D．Differences between parents of different times．。

（10）Unit 1 The mass media一、阅读理解1. Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel (旅社).

For several months, Cara has been trying to work up courage to approach her mom about what she saw on Weibo. Not long ago, the 11-year-old girl, like most of the other kids, discovered that her mom had been posting her photos for much of her life. "I've wanted to bring it up. It's strange to see myself up there, and sometimes there are pictures of myself I don't like," she said.Like most other modem kids, Cara grew up immersed (使深陷于) in social media. While many kids may not yet have accounts themselves, their parents, schools, and sports teams have been building the online presence for them since their birth. The shock of realizing that details about your life have been shared online without your permission or knowledge has become an important experience in the lives of many teenagers. Recently a parenting blogger wrote in an essay that despite her 14-year-old daughter's horror of discovering that her mother had shared years of highly personal stories and information about her online, she simply could not stop posting them on her blog and other social media. The writer said that promising her daughter that she would stop posting things about her publicly on the Internet would mean shutting down a vital part of herself, which wouldn't be necessarily good for herself or her daughter.But it's not just crazy mommy bloggers who construct their children's online identity; plenty of average parents do the same. There's even a special word for it: sharenting. Almost a quarter of children begin their digital lives when parents upload their photos to the Internet, according to a study. The study also found that 92 percent of kids under the age of 2 already have their own unique digital identity.1.How does Cara probably feel about her mom's behavior?A. It's joyful.B. It's appropriate.C. It's annoying.D. It's favorable.2.Why did the parenting blogger post things about her daughter online?A. Because it could fill up her blog.B. Because it meant a lot to her.C. Because it was to record her stories.D. Because it was to show off her success.3. Who are fond of sharenting?A. A quarter of children.B. Most ordinary parents.C. Kids above the age of 14.D. All crazy bloggers.3. Returning to a book you've read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There's a welcome familiarity — but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship. But books don't change, people do. And that's what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register. It's true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it's all about the present. It's about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader. Each has to pull their own weight.There are three books I reread annually. The first, which I take to reading every spring, is Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it's his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating(令人陶醉的), an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard's Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (随笔) about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortázar's Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortázar.While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifts, which might add to the meaning I attach to them. But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author's work is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best books are the ones that open further as time passes. But remember, it's you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.1.Why does the author like rereading?A.It evaluates the writer-reader relationship.B.It's a window to a whole new world.C.It's a substitute for drinking with a friend.D.It extends the understanding of oneself.2.What do we know about the book A Moveable Feasts?A.It's a brief account of a trip.B.It's about Hemingway's life as a young man.C.It's a record of a historic event.D.It's about Hemingway's friends in Paris.3.What does the underlined word "currency" in paragraph 4 refer to?A.Debt.B.Reward.C.Allowance.D.Face value.4.What can we infer about the author from the text?A.He loves poetry.B.He's an editor.C.He's very ambitious.D.He teaches reading.4. As global temperatures rise, trees around the world are experiencing longer growing seasons, sometimes as much as three extra weeks a year. All that time helps trees grow faster. For the past 100 years, trees have been experiencing fast growth in mild areas from Maryland to Finland, to Central Europe, where the growth rate of some trees has even sped up by nearly 77% since 1870. Supposing wood were just as strong today, those gains would mean more wood for building, burning, and storing carbon captured from the atmosphere. But is wood really as dense(茂密的) as it used to be?Hans Pretzsch, a forest scientist at the Technical University of Munich in Germany, and his colleagues wanted to find an answer. They carried out a study of the forests of Central Europe. They started with small pieces of experimental land in southern Germany, some of which have been continuously monitored since 1870. Pretzsch and his team took core samples (样品) from the trees — which included Norway spruce, sessile oak, European beech, and Scots pine — and analyzed the tree rings using a high-frequency probe.They found that in all four species, wood density had decreased by 8% to 12%. "We expected a trend of the wood density like this, but not such a strong and significant decrease," Pretzsch says. Increasing temperatures, and the faster growth they spur, probably account for some of the drop. Another factor, Pretzsch says, is more nitrogen in the soil from agricultural fertilizer and vehicle exhaust. Previous studies have linked increased fertilizer use to decreased wood density. Above all, the study suggests that the higher temperatures — combined with pollution from car exhaust and farms — are making wood weaker, resulting in trees that break more easily and wood that is less durable."I am getting worried," says Richard Houghton, an ecologist at the Woods Hole Research Center in Falmouth, Massachusetts, who was not part of the new study. As the density of the samples dropped, so did their carbon content. That means forests may suffer more damage from storms and may be less efficient at soaking up(吸收) the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) than scientists think, Houghton says.1.Paragraph 1 is written to _________.A.prove an ideaB.introduce the topicC.give an exampleD.describe a fact2.What does the study show?A.Farming slows trees' growth.B.More areas are covered with forests.C.Climate warming changes the quality of wood.D.Pollution leads to higher temperatures.3.What does Richard Houghton mean?A.Great loss might be caused.B.Storm damage can be prevented.C.The size of forests might be increased.D.Less greenhouse gases can be sent out.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.We only have one earthB.Trees — our best friendsC.The influence of climate changeD.Trees are growing faster, but weaker七选五5. Our habits are what shape us —our words, our behavior, and even our life itself. ①________• Pity yourself.All bad habits start with never-ending pity for your unhappy self and talking endlessly about your bad luck. Your figure, income, education, apartment, the weather, and even the tiniest inconvenience can become a cause for feeling upset. Those who develop the habit of pitying themselves lose the sympathy (同情) of people around them. ②________• Assess everything in terms of money.Some people think that happiness can be achieved by having lots of money and that you cannot really enjoy life if you don't wear fancy clothes, live in a big house or drive an expensive car. ③________ Instead, they develop their ability to attract it. A truly successful person is not totally dependent on his or her money.•④________Scientists say that people who don't feel they belong in their jobs are very likely to feel unhappy and live in poverty. The reason for this is their feelings that make them do what they don't want and don't like to do. To get rid of this habit for good, you should put your strength and energies into something satisfying. This is the only way to achieve excellent results.• Stay away from your relatives.⑤________And that's obvious, because it's the only place where you can find relief and support when everything comes crashing down around you.A. Do what you don't like.B. Try your best to improve your work.C. It's time to change your living pattern!D. Nobody wants to be around those people.E. Most successful people love and value their family most.F. And among them are some habits that should be avoided at all costs.G. However, wise people do not refer to wealth as the amount of money they get.三、完形填空6. In my life everything was going well until recently.

But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation.A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Bu ilt by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them.When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments.As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry.In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives.Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars.1.What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?A.Curious.B.Doubtful.C.Indifferent.D.Optimistic.2.What is the modified Ford Fusion?A.A kind of autonomous vehicle.B.A fleet of driverless taxis.C.A road for driverless cars.D.A retirement community.3.What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?A.Driv erless cars’ ernments’ right decisions.C.Benefits to the aged and the disabled.D.The regulations areforward-thinking.4.What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?A.The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked.B.Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology.C.The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.D.The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.7、 Since so much written language we see today comes from a glowing screen, language has begun to change through our interaction with technology. Social media and the Internet have had a rapid and great effect on the English language, and not necessarily for the better. More and more people have found themselves writing inpieces of words and using unclear acronyms(单词首字母) both in written and spoken language.How many times have you typed“LOL” in response to a humorous message? Referred to someone as your“BFF”? Exclaimed,“OMG!” during a particularly shocking event? Social media has affected the words we use in our everyday life. Abbreviations and acronyms commonly known as“text talk” have made their way into both spoken and written language. These are becoming increasingly popular as people struggle for brief expressions to meet word limits on social media like Weibo and Twitter. In addition, the speed of the Internet means language is changing faster than ever. You no longer have to be published through physical and traditional means to bring word trends to public attention.Many people believe the overuse of these new terms is a passing trend, and nobody will be using them in just a couple of decades. With the change of language, older terms will surely disappear and fall out of style, and newer and more Internet language will take their place.But the Oxford English Dictionary thinks the contrary. In 2011, a lot of Internet terms including,“LOL,”“BPB,”“OMD,” and“BFF” were added to the dictionary, making these acronyms official parts of the English language. According to the dictionary writers, these terms aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.The words you use in everyday life are a reflection of yourself; this is especially true on the Internet with the lack of interaction in real life. With the Internet and social media rapidly getting popular, soon your words may be all you have left. Make them good ones.1.Which is the best title for the passage?A.Social Media and the English LanguageB.The Use of New Internet LanguageC.The Internet and Social MediaD.The Change of the Internet and English2.What is one reason for people’s use of acronyms?A.The decrease of physical and traditional booksB.People’s need for quick response to different messagesC.The lack of people’s interaction with technologiesD.Pe ople’s need to meet word limits on social media3.The“new terms” are considered to be part of a passing trend because_________ .A.they are notpublished in a traditional wayB.they are not used as formal languageC.they’ll be replaced by even newer onesD.they are not supported by dictionary writers4.The writer of the passage thinks that Internet languages ________.A.have positive influenceB.should be properly usedC.are getting more popularD.are useless for interaction完形填空8、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A, B, C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2019-2020学年高二英语上学期寒假作业(2套) Word版含答案
2019-2020学年高二英语上学期寒假作业（2套）高二英语上学期寒假作业1第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，共20分）阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AThe temperature of your body should be always just the same, no matter whether the weather is hot or cold. That is why the doctor uses his thermometer （温度计）when your are sick.The body keeps the same temperature all the time ,because it balances the heat it produces and it gives off. It is always burning up food and , producing heat. It can produce heat faster when it needs to give off heat than when it becomes too warm. Let’s see how this happen.The heat of your body is given off mainly through the skin. When you are cold, your skin is tight and shows “good flesh”. When you get chilly, you must dance around to keep warm or else you will shiver. Then your muscles begin to work, burn up fuel, and produce more heat. It is not pleasant to shiver, so you usually prefer to warm up by exercise, or put on more clothes to keep heat in.When you are warm, the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied with blood that heat is given off rapidly. If you get too warm, you begin to sweat ,and more body heat is used in evaporating the moisture（水蒸气） from your skin. You wear less clothing, too, in warm weather or warm room, so that warm can be given off freely. You feel less like exercising because your body is warm already, and the extra heat produced by exercise makes you uncomfortable.You can see from the way you feel differently in different kinds of weather. In summer, when it is warm, you feel tired and lazy. You do not care to work or play, but enjoy lying and doing nothing. When you get out of doors in winter, the cold air makes you feel lively. You want to play.1.Which is another title suitable of the passage?A．The Patients’ Temperature B．The Body Temperature Should Always Be the SameC．The Body Temperature D．The Temperature and Your Skin2.How does the body keep the same temperature all the time?A．It is always producing heat from food. B．It gives off the heat produced in it.C．It balances the heat it gets and loses. D．It stops producing heat when necessary.3.When one feels chilly, which of the following will he do?A．His skin becomes tight in order to keep warm.B．He does exercises to make his muscle produce more heat.C．He puts on more clothes to keep heat in.D．He keeps shivering to produce more heat.B“High tech” and “state of the art” are two expressions that describe very modern technology. High tech is just a shorter way of saying high technology. And high technology describes any invention or system that uses the newest ideas or discoveries of science and engineering.What is high tech? A computer is high tech. So is a communications satellite.A modern manufacturing (制造业的) system is surely high tech.High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980’s. Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens (微波炉), etc. “State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible. It is a product that is based on the very latest ways and technology. Something that is “state of the art” is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry. A state of the art television set, for example, uses the most modern electronic design and parts. It is the best that one can buy.“State of the art” is not a new expression. Engineers have used it for years,to describe the best and most modern way of doing something.Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970’s. The reason was the computer revolution（革命）. Every computer company claimed (声称) that its computers were “state of the art”.Computer technology changes so fast that a state of the art computer today might be old tomorrow. The expression “state of the art” has become as common and popular as computers themselves. Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art”.4.What is the purpose of the passage?A．To tell how “high tech” and “state of the art” have developed.B．To give examples of high tech.C．To tell what “high tech” and “state of the art” are.D．To describe very modern technology.5.What can we learn from the passage?A．American stores could provide new kinds of products to the people.B．“High tech” describes a technology that is not traditional.C．“State of the art” became popular later than “high tech”.D．A lantern out of a big orange pumpkin is “state of the art”.6.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Since the computer revolution, the expression “state of the art” has become popular.B．“State of the art” means something that is the best one can buy.C．With the development of computer technology, a state of the art computer may easily become unpopular.D．All the producers claim that their products are “state of the art” nowadays.7.The best title for the passage is .A．Computer TechnologyB．High Tech and State of the ArtC．Most Advanced TechnologyD．Two New Expressions第二节完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20分）阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
寒假作业(10)Unit 5 Working the Land-高二英语人教版(2019)选择性必修
（10）Unit 5 Working the Land——2021-2022学年高二英语人教版（2019）寒假作业第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
AEvery time you go shopping, the vegetables and fruit look so tempting that you wish you could buy all of them. Some people are lucky and can grow the fruit and vegetables in the gardens that they have. While getting fresh vegetables, they can also achieve great cost cutting.Mushrooms are expensive and can also go bad very quickly. Mushrooms can also be grown easily in a dark environment. In fact it's better than growing other vegetables since you really don't need an outdoor space. A special type of soil that is good for growing mushrooms is easily available.Actually mushrooms aren't even vegetables; they are fungi (菌类) and for this reason, you don't even require sunlight to grow them. Well, how does one go about growing mushrooms? You could always search "growing mushrooms" and you will find a number of mushroom growing kits (工具) available online that are effective and not very expensive either.Mushrooms can be added to any dish that you cook. Simply use them in pizza, salads and anything that you pretty much fancy. Grow mushrooms in your own house and use them whenever you want. Fresh mushrooms are tastier than the ones that are stored in your refrigerator.If you have had a really good crop of mushrooms, then you can even store them. Ideally you should use the white variety of the mushrooms. Simply pick them, slice them and put them on a cookie sheet in a freezer. When they are frozen, you can use them when you want to. Remember to thaw (解冻) them before you use them, and they will give a really great taste to the dish that you are making.1. What can we know about growing mushrooms?A. It takes a lot of effort.B. It needs lots of sunshine.C. The soil is easily available.D. The environment is demanding.2. What is the author's attitude towards growing vegetables in gardens?A. Doubtful.B. Supportive.C. Objective.D. Disapproving.3. What could be the best title for the text?A. Simple to Cook Mushroom PizzaB. Fun and Easy to Grow MushroomsC. Expensive to Buy Mushrooms OnlineD. Important to Eat Fruit and VegetablesBIntelligence makes for better leaders. It certainly makes sense that handling a market shift or anything like that requires intelligence. But new research on leadership suggests that, at a certain point, having a higher IQ stops helping and starts hurting.Decades ago, Dean Simonton, a psychologist from the University of California, Davis, came up with that brilliant leaders' words may simply go over people's heads, that their solutions could be more complicated to carry out and that followers might find it harder to relate to them. Now Simonton and two colleagues have finally tested that idea, publishing their results in Journal of Applied Psychology.The researchers looked at 379 male and female business leaders in 30 countries across fields including banking, retail and technology. The managers took IQ tests and each was rated (划分等级) on the leadership style and effectiveness by an average of eight co-workers. The IQ positively correlated(相互关联) with ratings of leader effectiveness, strategy formation, vision and several other characteristics — up to a point. The ratings peaked at an IQ of around 120, which is higher than roughly 80 percent of office workers. Beyond that, the ratings decreased. The researchers suggest the "ideal" IQ could be higher to 140 or lower to 100 in various fields, depending on whether technical or social skills are more valued in a given work culture."It's an interesting and thoughtful paper," says Paul Sackett, a management professor at University of Minnesota, who was not involved in the research. "To me, the right interpretation(理解) of the work would be that it highlights a need to understand it is what high-IQ leaders do that leads to lower understanding by followers," he says. "The wrong interpretation would be 'Don't hire high-IQ leaders'."The study's lead author, John Antonakis, a psychologist at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland, suggests leaders should use their intelligence to use creative language that willpersuade and inspire others —the way former U.

The two studies, both published in the journal, are the result of nearly 20 years of research and experiments. Having a limitless blood supply could greatly help patients suffering from different blood disorders that require regular transfusions."People have been trying to do this for 20 years unsuccessfully," said Cambridge University's Dr. Caroline Guibentif." This is the first time... they have got cells that can be self-renewed and give rise to all sorts of blood cells, so of course it's a big step towards the goal, but we are not quite there yet."In the first study, the researchers were able to turn stem cells (干细胞) into blood stem cells that have the ability to produce different types of human blood. On the other hand, the secondteam of researchers successfully turned adult cells from mice and turned them into blood stem cells. The result of the first study could greatly help patients with genetic blood disorders. Doctors could soon take cells from the patients, genetically correct its defect and make functional blood cells. Scientists could also take cells from universal donors to develop a limitless supply of blood stem cells and blood. Meanwhile, the success of the second study is to be achieved in clinical trials, and it could provide a way to treat different immune disorders.Due to the relatively short lifespan of mouse models, the researchers did not detect any disadvantageous side effects of the artificial blood nor find any traces of cancer. The next step now is to try both methods in clinical trials. Despite the great success of the two studies, experts noted that it could possibly take years before the dream of having the limitless blood supply comes true.1. What can we know about artificial blood?A. It can be used in medical treatment.B. It will be sold at a low price.C. It is easy to produce artificial blood.D. It can cure blood disorders.2. What does the underlined word "defect" mean in Paragraph 3?A. Origin.B. Effect.C. Advantage.D. Fault.3. What will the researchers do next with artificial blood produced?A. They will make such blood on a large scale.B. They will carry on with clinical trials next.C. They will use it to save so many patients.D. They will make a study of immune disorders.4. Which of the following is the suitable title for the passage?A. Genetic Blood DisordersB. Worries About the Limited BloodC. Scientists Help Produce Limitless Artificial BloodD. Scientists Encourage People to Donate More BloodDIt's said that you don't know a man until you walk a mile in his shoes. And you also don't know what it's like for old people to travel until you accompany (陪伴) one on a trip.After flying with my elderly father from Washington, D. C. to L. A. in July, I began to realize that a companion has important tasks that can make a journey easier for old people. I booked nonstop tickets on JetBlue to avoid tiring, confusing connections, and we flew directly into Long BeachAirport. Even though my father could walk, I arranged with the airline for wheelchair assistance, which meant we got on board first.When I took him back to the airport for his return flight to Washington, I got permission from JetBlue to wait with him at the gate instead of saying goodbye at the security checkpoint. I wished he'd had a first-class seat and access to a comfortable airline club. Better yet, I wished I had flown with him on both ways. As I watched the attendant wheel him to the lift that would take him from the tarmac(停机坪) to the plane, I felt like an anxious mom sending her child to school for the first time.Things can go awry on a plane trip. And then there is a horrifying story about Joe and Margie. When they landed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a wheelchair attendant met them to help with a connection. But somehow Margie, who had Alzheimer's disease, disappeared.I didn't need to worry about my father's wandering away; at 82, his mind was sharper than mine. But his hearing was poor, so I worried about what would happen if he missed an important announcement. Fortunately, everything went just fine. A good arrangement (安排) made the trip successful.Next time I travel with a senior, I'll know better. I hope there will be a next time.1. Why did the author buy nonstop tickets?A. His father was tired of flights.B. He had important tasks to do.C. He cared about his father.D. His schedule was tight.2. How did the author feel when seeing his father off?A. Disappointed.B. Worried.C. Delighted.D. Sad.3. Which of the following can replace the underlined part "go awry" in Paragraph 4?A. Be amused.B. Carry on as usual.C. Live up to one's expectation.D. Be away from the correct course.4. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?A. Taking a trip does great good to seniors.B. It is a pleasant experience to travel with seniors.C. To have a long journey with seniors is unpractical.D. Careful planning ensures seniors to take a nice trip.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

More than a few students have done that.And some seem to do it over and over again.There are several problem areas that can cause students to goof up or do poorly in a test that they could have passed.Some students can become overconfident in their knowledge of the subject matter.They think they know the material better than they actually do.It is easy for students to misjudge their own knowledge,and when they realize tha t they don’t know the material,it is too late.What happens more often,though,is that some students feel they are smart enough to be able to guess their way through a test.So they don’t bother studying the material.They are overconfident in their ability to figure things out.In either case,overconfidence can result in lower grades in tests.Does this apply to you?Another thing that can happen is that students underestimate (低估) the difficulty of the test.They expect an easy test,but the teacher throws in a real tough test that they haven’t prepared for.Sometimes the teacher may cover material in the test that students weren’t expecting.That can happen,especially if you weren’t paying attention in class.Finally,there are students who don’t feel that gett ing a good grade is important to them,so they don’t bother to study or even try to do well.Such students may be trying to punish their parents,have a poor image of themselves,or are just plain foolish.Hopefully,you are not one of these students.1.The writer believes that many students____________.A.are afraid of examsB.make careless mistakesC.hate homeworkck confidence2.What does the underlined phrase “goof up” mean?A.Be overconfident.B.Be nervous.C.Make silly mistakes.D.Make wrong choices.3.
