He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terribletroubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.24. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A. Go shopping.B. Find a house.C. Join his family.D.

Now, it’s almost mainstream —exhibitions of nerd culture fill convention halls, comic book superheroes and science fiction stories are the focus of blockbuster movies, and more.“It has made being a nerd less of an isolating experience, and more of a community experience because you’re connecting with other people who have that shared interest,” she said.Holladay, the co-curator(副馆长), spoke up in a meeting about what the coming exhibition season would look like. “I knew of another nerdy exhibition that had happened in LA recently... and I just thought ‘you know, I bet there are nerdy artists on the (Olympic) Peninsula and in Washington who have really quality work, where the subject matter might not fit into most exhibits’,” she said.And she wasn’t surprised when they received plenty of recommendations. “My theory was that nerds are everywhere,” she said. “Once I got in touch with the right people, everyone was coming out of the woodwork.”The exhibit features comic art, and things like Pokemon cards arranged in a collage(拼贴画). One work invites viewers to imagine the unique talents and abilities they have as superpowers they bring to the world. Holladay says the evolution of the idea of nerd culture has been positive over the past several years.28. What is Sarah Jane’s attitude towards “nerds”?A. Neutral.B. Critical.C. Appreciative.D. Uncaring.29. Which of the following contributes most to the popularity of nerd culture?A. People’s varying views of nerd.B. Movies’ great influence upon people.C. The sufferings people have gone through.D. The Internet connecting people with shared interests.30. What does the underlined expression “coming out of the woodwork” mean ?A. Springing out.B. Getting out of the woods.C. Rushing outside.D. Expecting high quality of work.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. The exhibition shows how being a “nerd” becomes good.B. The nerd culture is always evolving positively.C. Many unusual exhibitions are scheduled.D. Another different culture appears recently.DIt’s been discovered that the world’s rarest seal(稀有海豹) uses hidden caves on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus to breed(繁殖) out of sight from humans. Scientists say the caves should now be protected to help the rare Mediterranean monk seals.Researchers from the University of Exeter and the society for the Protection of Turtles (SPOT), set up cameras in eight caves in northern Cyprus to monitor the monk seal population.The cameras are started by movement, so they start recording when something passes by. Between 2016 and 2019, the researchers found that three of the caves were used for breeding. One monk seal raised babies three years in a row in the same cave.There are only around 700 Mediterranean monk seals left in the wild and the species is listed as endangered. In the past, they used beaches along the north coast of Cyprus to breed but human activities such as tourism have gradually forced them to move elsewhere. In 2007, a survey identified 39 possible breeding caves. It was only in 2013, however, that a young seal was spotted in the area around the caves. This confirmation that seals were breeding in the area inspired the team to set up their special cameras in 2016. Knowing about these breeding caves will help experts to track the seal population more accurately.The researchers now w ant to give the seals in the area better protection. They’re hoping to make arrangements with local fishermen who set their fishing nets near the caves, which not only takes food from the seals but also risks catching the animals by mistake. The scientists would also like to protect the caves themselves from any nearby building developments. “The main breeding site we identify in this study currently has no protected status, and we are working with local authorities to try to change this,” said Dr. Robin Sn ape of the University of Exeter.32. Why do seals breed in caves?A. To save energy.B. To avoid human activities.C. To get food.D. To adapt to weather change.33. What encourages the team to set up cameras?A. Hidden caves in Cyprus.B. Support from local authorities.C. The fact of seals breeding in the area.D. Building developments near beaches.34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It talks about worries about seals.B. It tells us the public’s expectations.C. The researchers and scientists are trying to find ways to protect seals.D. The fishermen’s daily activities are protected.35. Which is Not true according to the text?A. The rarest seal uses caves to breed without being found by humans.B. The researchers use cameras in eight caves to monitor the monk seal population.C. Local fishermen probably catch the seals by mistake.D. The local authorities are taking action to protect the endangered seals.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

On the second day, we won two matches 2-0.9)_______ ______ our teamwork, we succeeded in the fourth match as well. Everybody fought with all of their strength and energy during the game. It was at that moment that I realized it is important to appreciate your teammates, but it is equally important to learn to cheer for the other team.During the competition, I remembered 10) _______had happened the year before. When I was told that I had only been chosen as a substitute for the first team, my pride made me say no and join the second team. After Volleyball Month last fall, I got enthusiastic about volleyball and wanted to improve my ability enough to play for the first team. I joined the school volleyball team, which gave us professional training. I’m aware that I was not born good at it, but I have spent a lot of time working on my skills with great energy.Finally, I made the first team this year.BFor you, the “Clear and Bright” day that falls in every April 11)________ be no more than just another holiday – the fact that it comes with three days off school matters to most students much more than the fact that it is part of the 24 solar terms.But the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has recognized the importance of the 24 solar terms. This ancient system that Chinese people have used to keep track of the time of year 12)________ ( add ) to the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on Nov 30.To be fair, the terms do sound old; they were invented thousands of years ago to offer weather information for agricultural activities.

Instead, the system is a philosophy of time, 20)_______ applies to everything. And this means they are unlikely to die out.Part II.

They are just asked to drink a special drink to balance their yin and yang.25)________ known as liangcha, it is a drink made from herbs, not a tea. The drink usually includes honeysuckle (金银花), chrysanthemum (菊花) and wild tuckahoe (茯苓) to balance the heat from what people eat and drink and their surroundings.Drinking herbal tea is a tradition in the Lingnan region, and it is found largely in Guangdong and Guangxi. Dried tangerine peel (陈皮) is another herb the region feels proud of, as it is shown in The Tale of Chinese Medicine. “There are three 26)_______ in Guangdong – dried tangerine peel, old ginger (姜) and straw (禾秆草),” the Cultural China website 27)_______. “But 100-year-old tangerine peel is considered more valuable than gold.”The longer the tangerine peel has been 28)________, the more expensive it becomes.

However, they mig ht not know that scientists have found that some kinds of music can improve people’s energy by 15 percent. This was discovered by Costas Karageorghis at Brunel University’s School of Sport and Education in London. Karageorghis has worked with 31)________ such as Nike and with many champion athletes.

Even when they were doing very hard exercise, they were 34)_______ about how they felt. When people are doing exercise, their nerves send messages 35)________ that their body is getting tired. However, when they are listening to music at the same time, these messages are 36)_______. Karageorghis thinks this is because the music causes part of the brain to send different messages to the body that make it feel happy and relaxed.Different effectsKarageorgh is’ work shows that different types of music can have different effects on different people. The effect of some music can also depend on how tiring the exercise is. Karageorghis saidthat people who have extroverted (外向的) personalities prefer faster and louder kinds of music 37)________ to people who have a reserved personality. This is because, for the music to have an effect, the brains of extroverted people need more 38)________ than the brains of reserved people. Reserved people want to feel less worried and so have better results when the music makes them feel relaxed.Karageorghis was asked to provide music for the “Run to the Beat” half marathon in the UK, and which has also now started in other countries. “I also have lots of other exciting39)_________ that I am working on,” said Karageorghis. One of these is to find out if the40)_______ of the music we listen to has an effect on our heart rate whi le we exercise.Part III. Reading 2’x4At 23, my career got going. I was midway through a master’s degree at The London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a part-time reporter for a finance website. ________________41________________However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. ______________42___________The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well until hetold me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We don’t think it’s the right fit.”I must have looked confused. “You’re ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful,” my boss said. “But you haven’t made enough of an effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That won’t work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to let your guard down.”_____________43___________ But I knew my boss was right. They knew when they hired me that I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone else’s suggestions. I did it to show th at I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They had liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didn’t respect me when I hid that person from them.“Don’t leave before you leave.” _____________44_____________ Because we work so hard for s uccess, we don’t like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a full time job, I “leaned back” in order to not show too much of myself or my lack of expertise. I learned the hard way that it i sn’t the way to achieve your goals.Part IV.1’x 1245. 习惯做某事_________________________ 46.款待自己_________________________ 47. 丧失信心_________________________ 48.首屈一指_________________________ 49. 很可能… __________________________ 50. 打一场硬仗_______________________ 51. 把脉___________________________ 52. 旨在… ________________________ 53. 内向性格__________________________ 54. 散发着不同气味___________________ 55. 在…缺乏经验______________________ 56. 专业技能不足________________________ End____Key to Newspaper Quiz 657Part I.A. 1) stretching 2) that 3) about 4) while 5) of6) that/which 7) the most likely 8) as 9) Thanks to 10）WhatB. 11)might/may 12)was added 13) even if 14) between 15) following16) since/because 17) in 18) themselves 19) no matter how 20) whichPart II.21) B, BD, AC, AD, ABC / C, BC, A, D, AB31)B, AC, C, AD, D, / BC, BD, ABC, CD, APart III.41-44) E, C, A, BPart IV.45) in the habit of doing 46) treat oneself to a big feast 47) lose heart 48) be second to none49) Chances are that…50) fight a tough battle51) take pulses 52) aim to do53) a reserved personality 54) give off different smells 55) have no experience in 56) lack of expertise。

ARecently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer “psychological first aid” and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitu de from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude(打扰)on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, “Just go. Just be there.” I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS-related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.11. Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.12. What does the underlined word “solemn” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Heavy but warm.B. A little sad but comfortable.C. Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.13. What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C. The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D. Being a volunteer can make one’s life more significant.BWe all know a picky eater (挑食者) or two, or maybe you’re the picky eater, avoidi ng food adventures at all costs, because you’re convinced you’ll hate whatever new and bad-looking food is put on your plate. But why is it that some people are picky eaters while others are willing to try pretty much anything that can be eaten?There’s no single explanation for the picky eating habit. Picky eaters are typically unwilling to try new foods, which can be the result of your DNA and the way you are treated and educated when you are young. Marcia Pelchat, Ph.D., a researcher at the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia who specializes in food preferences in humans, tells China Daily, “A group in FinlandCThe trouble of having to charge your smart phone for hours a day could become a thing of the past.British scientists have created a material that replaces the screen glass for phones, i-pad and smartwatches, but uses no power—meaning that they could be charged weekly. The discovery is important because more than 90 percent of a device’s battery power illuminates (照亮)the screen.Technology firms have focused on improving battery life. But the British experts say dealing with the main power-using may give better results. Oxford University engineer Dr Peiman Hosseini, father of the material, told t he Sunday Telegraph, “You have to charge smartwatches each night. But if you had smart glass, you could recharge it just once a week.”The invention uses electrical pulses to create displays that require no power and can be viewed even in direct sunlight. Dr Hosseini’s company, Bodle Technologies, hopes to have a prototype(样机)in a year.Battery life is seen as a major obstruction for modern computing and technology. While thepower of technology and lifestyle gadgets has improved rapidly in recent years, batteries have not kept pace. The success of smart watches, including Apple’s version, is thought to depend on solving this problem because few users are willing to charge a watch every day.Gadget firms are also desperate to solve the problem.Apple, for example, is investigating using fuel cells to power its phones and laptops, and this year had gained a patent for a system that it claimed could power its gadget for weeks.In 2012 US energy secretary Steven Chu called for a big push to improve batteries, challenging scientists to produce a battery with five times the capacity within five years.Aside from mobile gadgets, improving battery technology is seen as key to the success of electric cars, which currently have a limited journey before they must stop to be recharged.17. Who invented the new material?A. Energy secretary.B. Apple Corps.C. Oxford University engineer.D. Technology firms.18 What can we know about the invention?A. It is a kind of glass.B. It is popular with customers.C. It has gained a patent.D. It uses power to charge the phones.19. The author uses the example of Apple in Paragraph 7 to show ________.A. what the key to success isB. why Apple products are popularC. how often batteries must be rechargedD. how gadget firms are making efforts to improve batteries20. What can be inferred from the passage?A. 90% of batteries will be replaced with smart glass.B. It is likely that mobile phones will be recharged once a week.C.

高二英语周周练试题阅读理解：AMy three-year-old granddaughter fell from her bike onto the road before I could catch her. Emily lay there for a moment, guessing her chances of survival. Finding the chances were in her favor, she sat upwith a smile that quickly turned into tears when she saw the blood on her knee. I took her in my arms, saying words of comfort as I carried her into the house to mend her hurt.With much comfort, she let me wash and put ointment on her knee. I kissed her cheek. ―All better now, sweetie?‖―No, Grandma, you must say the Mommy words,‖she said. I quickly ran a list of Mommy words through my mind: Please? Thank you?I love you? ―You know, Grandma. Mommy says them to make me all better.‖Emily took a deep breath and recited (朗诵), ―A little kiss, a little hug, I give you these, with all my love.‖My mind raced and I remembered.

The win makes Mo Yan the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel in its 111-year history. Informed of his win today, the author, who was having dinner at home, was “overjoyed and scared”.Born in 1955 to parents who were farmers, Mo Yan — a pen name for Guan Moye, grew up in Gaomi, Shandong province in eastern China. At the age of 12, he left school to work, first in agriculture, later in a factory. In 1976 he joined the army and during this time began to study literature and writing.He published his first book in 1981, but found literary success in 1987 with Hong Gaoliang Jiazu, which was successfully filmed in the same year, directed by famous Chinese director Zhang Yimou. In his writing, Mo Yan draws on his youthful experiences and on settings in the province of his birth and his works show the life of Chinese people as well as the country’s unique culture and folk customs. Mo Yan is known as a productive writer. In addition to his novels, he has published many short stories and essays on various topics. Despite his social criticism, he is seen in his homeland as one of the most famous contemporary authors. Dozens of his works have been translated into English, French, Japanese and many other languages.The awarding ceremony has been held on December 10. The winner has won a medal, a personal diploma and a cash award of about $1 million.5．How did Mo Yan feel when he was told about the news?A. Excited and proud.B. Worried and cautious.C.

Mo Yan Wins Nobel Prize in LiteratureB. An Introduction to Nobel PrizeDWhat makes a gift special？Is it the price you see on the gift receipt？Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value？What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming，and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower，a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky，inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me sinceI was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe；my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming，and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples，twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer，the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame，I knew I had given the perfect gift.13．The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was______.A．doing shoppingB．having a debateC．reading a messageD．leaving for Wyoming14．The author's inspiration for the gift came from ______.A．a photo of a flowerB．a story about a kidC．a call from the motherD．a text about Christmas15．The author made the gift by ______.A．searching for the poems onlineB．drawing the background by handC．painting the letters in three colorsD．matching the words with pictures第二节完形填空阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
