But you must go there yourself to feel its true size and beauty. The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years. Slowly, the river cut down through hard rock. At the same time, the land was rising. Today, the canyon is one and a half kilometers deep and 445 kilometers long. The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old. The width varies from about 200 meters to 29 kilometers across. The rim from or top of the canyon is about 2,300 meters above sea level on the South Rim, and about 3,000 meters on the other side, the North Rim. As a result, there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon. The South Rim is dry desert country. The North Rim has tall forests.The canyon looks different at different times a day, and in the different seasons and weather. At sunrise and sunset the red, gold, brown, and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright. In winter, the canyon is partly covered with snow.The view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best. Most visitors come to the South Rim and stay in campgrounds or hotels. Every point along the canyon’s eage offers a different view.The North Rim of the Canyon is quieter. It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge across the Colordo River. On the way, you go through Navado Indian lands, and a colourful pink desert called ”the Painted Desert”.Y ou can walk down into the Grand Canyon, or you can go down on the back of a mule(小型电动汽车) . Y ou can also take a boat trip down the Colorado River, and camp on the beaches at night. But whether you see the Grand Canyon from thr top or the bottom, it will be an experience that you will never forget.21.The best way to feel the size and beauty of the Grand Canyon is___________________________.A.to see it photographsB.to listen to the report about itC.to travel there yourselvesD.to watch its TV programs22.What made the Grand Canyon?A.The earthquakeB.The water from the Colorado RiverC.The American proplrD.The strong wind23.The sea level on both sides of the Grand Canyon is __________________________.A.the sameB.changing with timeC.variousD.very low24.From the passage we can know that the _________ of the canyon is different atdifferent time.A. lengthB. sceneC. widthD. height。

高二英语假期作业(三)
郑口中学高二英语假期作业（三）命题人：胡月娟第I卷阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，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AMy mother is the only living person who has never communicated via email or text. She has never turned on a computer, registered an email account, used data storage media or searched the Internet. Since 1955, she has settled in Silicon Valley, married to an extremely technical specialist in applied physics and engineering, designing photometric systems for NASA. Only when Dad suffered from c ancer could we convince her she needed a cell phone. Mom’s being separated from the information age is voluntary and deliberate.Mom is still that farm girl, and she takes the most pride in it. She sees her neighbor and her community “real”. She shows no interest in the digital and virtual life. My mother saw Depression, World War II and the beginning of the Cold War before reaching voting age. She enjoyed country music on “The Sons of the Pioneers”, a Canadian broadcast. The battery was so precious a resource that radio was limited to the barn because Grandma thought it helped cows produce milk. In the age when Churchill moved millions for the first time with radio broadcasts, she only experienced live media monthly, if at all.In her early twentie s, Mom completed nurses’ training and worked in that field before marriage, family and church became her life’s concerns. She never really warmed up to television, though I think she appreciated a few of the series we watched, comedies like All in the Family. Computers, the Internet and mobile apps are simply not part of her experience.Mom disagrees with the opinion that technology simplifies life. In her life, she sees online records, email and paperless systems as mysteries in which no written reference can assist her.However, I can partly understand: I like such kind of experience and relationship one has with physical books. I am a child of television who only recently switched to online viewing. I’ve written down my awkward, love-hate relationship with my devices. Mom’s technophobia surelyplayed a role here, but it works for her. She’s happiest as she is.21. The author’s mother began to use mobile phone when.A. she found it hard to contact with her husbandB. she settled in Silicon Valley for fifty yearsC. she got marred to a technical specialistD. her husband suffered from cancer22. What is the author’s mother most proud of according to the passage?A. Having so many close neighbors.B. Experiencing too much all her life.C. Living simply and in her own style.D. Being involved in modern technology.23. What is the author’s attitude towards his mother’s such kind of experience?A. Critical.B. Positive.C. Neutral.D. Negative.24. It is implied in the underlined sentence that .A. the author should make efforts to learn from his motherB. the author prefers watching movies online to watching TVC. Mom’s attitude towards technology has an eff ect on the authorD. Mom should also set down the relationship with physical booksBThe baobab tree grows in West Africa and Australia. It is a very strange-looking tree. Its huge trunk(树干) sometimes measure as much as ten metres in diameter (直径). It is thicker at the bottom than at the top. The branches nearest to the ground are very long; those near the top are very short. Strange-looking it may be, it is very useful. Its leaves are good to eat. Its white flowers turn into cool fruit which tastes rather like cucumber. When a baobab tree gets old, its trunk becomes hollow(空心). An old tree has such a huge, hollow trunk that it can hold many people. When it rains, water collects in the hollow. The tree has such a lot of leaves and branches that the water remains cool and fresh. It is such a useful tree that some people can hardly live without it.25. The trunk of the biggest baobab tree ________ in girth (周长)。

But what about really young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t, strictly speaking, even adults?They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Film Festival tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln center. Complete with “red carpet〞 interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experiencedmoviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.“What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,〞 said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,〞 Ms. Gardner added. The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “Ａlot of the material is really mature,〞Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.〞 Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants’ (移民) feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and a full-length film whose title is Pressure.1. Wingspan Arts Kids Film Festival _____________.A. is organized by a middle schoolB. is as famous as the Toronto FestivalC. shows films made by childrenD. offers awards to film school students2.

At the end of this film festival, there will be __________.A. various awardsB. “red carpet〞 interviewsC. an open receptionD. a concert at Lincoln CenterBFederal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert (警报) system using text messages delivered to cell phones.Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The wireless industry’s trade association, CTIA, estimates (估计) more than 48 billions text messages are sent each month.The plan comes from the Warning Alter and Response Network Act, a federal law that requires improvement to the nation’s emergency alter system. The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alter the public about emergencies.“The ability to deliver accurate and timely warning and alters through cell phone and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protectthemselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies,〞FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.Participation in the alter system by carriers — telecommunication companies — is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry.The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alters.There would be three types of messages, according to the rules.The first would be a national alter from the president, likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster. The second would involve “approaching threats,〞 which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (绑架)emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts.The service could be in place by .6. What is the purpose of the approval plan?A. To warn people of emergencies via message.B. To popularize the use of cell phone.C. To estimate the monthly number of messages.D. To promote the wireless industry.7. The improvement to the present system is in the charge of ______.A. CTLAB. the Warning Alert and Response NetworkC. FCCD. federal regulators8. The carrier s’ participation in the system is determined by _______.A. the US federal governmentB. mobile phone usersC. the carriers themselvesD. the law of the United States9. Which of the following is true of cell phone users?A.They must accept the alert service.B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.C. They must send the alerts to others.D. They may choose the types of messages.10. An alert message will NOT be sent if __________.A. a child loses his wayB. a university shooting happensC. a natural disaster happensD. a terrorist attack occurs四. 阅读表达「1」Hello. It’s one of the first words we learn as babies,yet it’s one of the last ones we think to use as adults. That’s unfortunate, because saying hello is more than just saying hello- it is recognition of another’s worth. How might the world change –how might we change- if we mastered this word? To find out, I spent one month saying hello to every person I met. Here’s what I’ve learned.「2」It can boost (促进) productivity. In one of the few studies ever done on this subject, Allan Allday, an assistant professor of special education at Oklahoma State University, had middle school teachers greet their students individually each morning. This exchange of greetings raised the kids productivity. School went from impersonal to personal, and that resulted in more class participation and better grades.「3」En ironments influence friendliness, One study found that people in the city were less likely to shake one’s hands with a stranger than those in the countryside.And,researehers say.clear envirouments generally encourage more smiles and hellos than unpleasant ones ,My expenrience was similarl.Whatever the reason,my urban hellos were answered far less often than my rural one. Similarly,people in vacation spots, like the Jeros hore,were far friendlier than those hurrying work downtown.「4」It’s a form of universal health insurance.It’s impossible to say hello without smiling.And smiling has been shown to lower blood pressure, relieve stress and boost happiness. Apparently, a smile creates a similar effect in the recipient (接受者)。

In oneclassie experiment, people were showna vertical line and asked to find a line of identical lengthfrom a selection of three.You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, and when people perform it by themselvesthey do it very well. However, psychologists have discoveredthat we are very easily swayed by the opinions of other people when wedo this task in a group. In one study, a group of three peoplewas set up,where two of the people were confederates(同伙)of the experimenter.When the confederates deliberately gave wronganswers,people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also. In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every occasion.But why do people conform in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people donot want to step out of line with the prevailing opinion of the group. On more difficult tasks, people also conform because they lose 〔onfidence in their own ability to make decisions and preferto trust the majority opinion instead.A typical example of this kind of conformity arises when we come across people in distress.Would you help a woman who has been attacked in the street?It turns out that you are much more likely to go to her assistance if you are alone.When other people are also around,a diffusion ofresponsibility occurs. People are paralysed into inaction, because everyone assumes that someone else will go to the woman' s assistance.8.

高二英语假期作业一.阅读理解APeople all need friends because nobody wants to be lonely and a friend can help you in good and bad times. You’ve made friends since childhood，but you still don’t know who your true friends are. Here are some signs to tell you if your friend is a true friend：Always honestHonesty is important to keep a relationship alive. A true friend always tells you the truth. It may be hard sometimes but lying can destroy a friendship. It is important that your friend speaks honestly and never makes up stories.There are always periods in your life when you have problems or difficulties. A true friend will always have time to listen to your problems and give advice. It may not be able to offer a solution to your problems but the fact that your friend made time to listen is a sign he/she cares for you. Your friend is not a true friend if he/she can never make time for you when you are in trouble. You also need to be reasonable and accept that your friend also has other things to do so he/she can’t always listen immediately to your problems.Always respectful (尊敬的)A true friend will always respect your opinion no matter whether he/she agrees or not. Your true friend may disagree but never insists that he/she is correct.Always understandingIt is possible that some problems will arise between you and your friend. A true friend will always be forgiving (体谅的) and understanding，even if it isn’t his/her fault. We are all different people and we all make mistakes.

Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I was not a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to bear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked. "Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn't you ever wonder what you're really like? Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said."I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin), but a good number I could-and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I went to a fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. "That' s just for you," he said. "You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people whothink they know your duty. Don't shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do."Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a better piece of advice.6. What did the father do after he had heard his daughter's complaint?A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her "enemy" had said and just do what she wants to do.B. He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.C. He told her to write down all her "enemy" had said and pay attention only to the things that were true.D. He refused to take the list and want to have a look at it.7. What does "Week by week her list grew" mean?A. She made a list of my shortcomings and kept on adding new ones so it was growing longer and longer.B. Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.8. Why did her father listen to her quietly?A. Because he believed that what her daughter's "enemy" said was mostly true.B. Because he had been so angry with her daughter and wanted to keepsilent.C. Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.D. Because he was not quite sure which girl was telling the truths.9.

My ChildhoodCLiving a healthy lifestyle lies in forming the right eating habits. Here are some of the good habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating.Drink plenty of water. You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. You may needeven more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories less during the day than their colleagues who skipped breakfast. They will also be able to concentrate better.Don’t skip lunch. If you do so, your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism (新陈代谢) will slow down. When you get home you are starving and eat everything you can find.We all need to snack from time to time, but please choose your snacks carefully. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals. Choose healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables, low fat yogurt, cottage cheese with apple sauce, and so on.Eat your fruit and vegetables. We should eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Take a piece of fruit for a snack, add some banana and raisins to your favourite breakfast cereal, have a salad with lunch, and eat at least one vegetable at dinner each night.Do not eat your dinner too late. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours. Plan dinner for the week ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need in the house so other family members can get a head start on dinner if you have a late meeting at the office.10.

For these people, they can turn to the Guide Horse Foundation.Janet and Don Burleson founded(成立) the organization in 1999. They began training miniature horses to help guide blind people.

She became 45-year-old Dan Shaw's helper. Shaw has an eye disease and his sight is very poor. One night, while filling out a form to get a guide dog, Shaw heard a news story on TV about people training horses to guide the blind. Shaw loves horses and wanted a guide animal that would live a long time. So he applied(申请)，and a year later, Cuddles and Shaw began training as a team.On a trip to New York, Cuddles helped Shaw safely visit many places of interest .They even traveled on a boat and on the subway system.Shaw says that he is very lucky to have Cuddles.
