This even was started by Jennifer Barlow of Midlothian, Virginia in 2003, and it is becoming more popular each year. It has been supported by the International Dark-Sky Association, the American Astronomical Society, and the Astronomical League.This even always occurs in April, during the week of the new moon so that the sky can be as dark as possible for the best viewing conditions.“It is my wish that people could see the night sky without other light in the sky as our ancestors (祖先) saw it hundreds of years ago,” explains Barlow.Since it only lasts a week and not everyone in the country will take part in it, how will the National Dark-Sky Week reduce light pollution? The main goal of NDSW is to increase awareness (意识) of the harmful effects of light pollution. It is not possible for all of the light pollution in this part of the world to disappear. However, it is possible to make a small difference in the quality of the night sky. Another goal of this even is to promote (促进) the use of better lighting systems that direct light toward the ground instead of up into the sky.Jennifer Barlow states, “The night sky is a gift of such beauty that it should not be polluted by wasted light. In this way, our children will not lose touch with the wonder of our universe.”11. This passage is mainly about ______________.A. better lighting systemsB. the beauty of the night skyC. the harm of light pollutionD. the National Dark-Sky Week12. Which of the following statements about the National Dark-Sky Week is WRONG?A. It is becoming more and more popular in America.B. The event was started in 2003 by Jennifer Barlow.C. The event takes place in the first week of every April.D. American people are supposed to turn off their lights during that week.13. What is Jennifer Barlow’s wish?A. That light would be directed up into the sky.B. That the sky would always be as dark as possible.C. That people could see the night sky without light pollution as our ancestors did.D. That people could spend time enjoying the beauty of the sky every night.14. We can infer from the underlined（划线的）sentence in Paragraph 4 that ____________.A. many people in America hate this eventB. it may be hard to reduce light pollutionC. the event should last a month every yearD. light will no longer pollute the sky soon15. What is the main goal of the National Dark-Sky Week?A. To promote the use of better lighting systems.B. To help people realize the harm of light pollution.C. To cause all the light pollution in America to disappear.D. To help young children enjoy the wonder of our universe.第三部分．完形填空（每题1.5分，共30分）“Mum, I want to make you a bet,” I said. “If I go a whole year without TV, will you give me a hundred dollars?”“Well, if you can ___16___do it, …”“Of course I can,” I replied, ___17___to convince myself.___18___, all this started from my ___19___of a picture in the newspaper.

高二英语下学期第二次周练试题
河北省保定市高阳中学学年高二春季版第二次周练英语试题第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AMy mom just bought me a new bike. Since my cousin Mary didn’t have a bike with her, she walked next to me. I thought that Mary would jump on the luggage carrier (行李架) over the back tire when I was riding. Mom knew exactly what I was thinking. “Don’t ride the bike with Mary on the back,” she said. “It’s too dangerous. You could kill yourself. Take turns.”I nodded, but I was thinking I could handle this. A few minutes later, I turned right to a wide road. “Jump on the back,” I told Mary. I rode fast, laughing as the wind blew through our hair. It was exciting, until the handlebar (车把) started shaking. The front tire dropped into a drain (下水道) and I fell off the bike, still holding the handlebar.My face, hands, and knees crashed into the pavement. The pain in my mouth was unbearable, and I tasted blood. I turned towards Mary who was on the ground, holding her knee and crying. Seconds later, it seemed that my mom’s car stopped next to us. I wanted Mom to say, “Oh, my poor sweetheart. Let me hug you and everything will be fine.”However, my mom only said, “What have you done to your face? Vanessa,look at what you’ve done!” Mom wasn’t the gentle “I love you, sweetie” type.Sometimes, I thought Mom had no mercy. But in her own way, she was holding me tighter than I could understand — she was teaching me the lesson I needed. “You did it — deal with it and learn from it. One day, the consequences (后果) will be greater and I won’t be there to help you. Think it out, Vanessa.”1. We can learn from the text that .A. Vanessa fell because she didn’t hold the handlebarB. Vanessa and Mary rode the bike by turnsC. Vanessa was blown down by the heavy windD. Vanessa and Mary were all injured2. In the author’s opinion, her mother .A. was always gentle to herB. encouraged her all the timeC. was cold sometimesD. didn’t care about her at all3. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Vanessa’s mother was strict with her.B. Vanessa understood her mother’s love.C. Vanessa’s mother would leave her.D. Vanessa wasn’t eager for her mom’s hug any more.BCARE London to Paris Cycle ChallengeIn this challenge you’ll cycle from London to Paris in three days, enjoying the beautiful countryside along the way.You will cycle through the peace of rural (乡村的) England to Portsmouth, where you will cross the river by boat to Ouistreham. The route then winds through peaceful lands and attractive villages, where you can taste fine French food before cycling to your final destination, Paris.Why join our London to Paris Cycle Challenge?This is a great way to get fit and experience the best of rural Europe with friends, colleagues or on your own as a personal challenge. The money you raise will support CARE’s work around the world. CARE works to help poor people lift themselves out of poverty (贫穷). For example, we support volunteers like Eugenia who travels by bike to distant towns near her home in Peru to make sure pregnant (怀孕的) women and new mothers receive medical care. Before, women were often left with little support or language barriers which meant medical care assistants could not communicate effectively with them. With local volunteers’ suppo rt, women living in remote areas can benefit from health services.What is included on the London to Paris Cycle Challenge?Guides, medicine and support staffThree nights’ accommodationMeals during the challenge, including a celebration meal on the final night in ParisBoat from Portsmouth to OuistrehamReturn from Paris to LondonThe minimum amount of the money you’ll have to collect for this challenge is £1,350, which includes your registration (注册) fee.

In 1985, two days before he died, he gave that ticket to Cave —ticket number 00001. “It created a fascination (酷爱) with the bridge that I have to this day,” says Cave. And it started him on a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge first.Cave came up with a simple but daring idea — lease (租用) the bridge from the government and allow ordinary people to climb Australia’s greatest icon. “I thought it would take two years,” says Cave, 63. “What appeared like a simple job turned into some very complex activities. But in business, you just have to keep going —it’s about having self-belief.” Indeed, it took him nine years and ten months to convince t he NSW government to allow his dream to be a reality. “Six years were wasted dealing with some very restrictive officials,” says Cave. They threw difficulty after difficulty in his path with doubts over the safety of the climbers and the motorists below — the list went on and on.Through it all, Cave held the ticket tightly. It was a constant reminder of why, to Cave, this fight wasworth winning. Finally, in 1995, came the breakthrough (突破) he’d worked for — a letter arrived from WorkCover, the state’s oc cupational health and safety insurer, backing his idea.Since opening on October 1, 1998, over 1.8 million people have climbed the 1,439 steps to the top of the bridge, making BridgeClimb a $50-million-a-year success and a major international tourist attraction.8. Cave at first thought his dream .A. was a hard taskB. was easy to come trueC. would get support from the governmentD. would become some complex activities9. What was the restrictive officials’ attitude towards Cave’s id ea?A. Cautious.B. Approving.C. Doubtful.D. Enthusiastic.10. What inspired Cave to fight for his dream during the hard situation?A. WorkCover.B. Harbour Bridge.C. BridgeClimb.D. Ticket 00001.11. The text mainly tells us that .A. not every dream in our life is very easy to come trueB. you should have self-belief even faced with great difficultyC. family members always give you the inspiration for successD. life seems a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge firstDA habitat is a natural area where wildlife lives undisturbed. Most animals and plants have become endangered not because they have been killed on purpose but because their habitats are being destroyed.Human activities have changed or destroyed habitats for thousands of years. The natural habitats in almost every country in the world have been affected in some way. Let us take Britain as an example. Nowadays most of the British countryside consists of fields of grass grown for cattle and sheep or crops for humans. If you had lived about a thousand years ago, the countryside would have looked very different for most of Britain was covered with forest.Now there are only small areas of woodland across the country, one of the largest areas being the New Forest in Hampshire. Throughout the centuries humans have steadily (持续地) cut down the trees to make room for the human population which has increased greatly particularly during the past 200 years or so. The trees have been replaced by houses, factories, schools, roads, farmland etc. Hedgerows (灌木篱笆) which were planted by humans as boundaries (边界) around fields have replaced woodlands.As you may imagine, the great loss of habitats has affected the wildlife that lives in them. Large animals such as the Brown Bear and the Auroch became extinct in Britain during the 10th century mainly due to destruction (粉碎) of their forest habitats. Other British species of animals and plants have become extinct during the last few hundred years and many more are endangered today. Although many organizations are working to protect wildlife, natural habitats are still being destroyed.12. The text mainly tells us .A. what a habitat isB. how to protect wildlifeC. habitat destruction makes animals endangeredD. how to prevent the environment from being destroyed13. According to the text, animals are endangered mainly because .A. people kill wild animals on purposeB. the environment is seriously pollutedC. humans haven’t worked to protect themD. the human population has increased greatly14. We can learn from the text that .A. the New Forest is the largest woodland in the worldB. the Brown Bear has been extinct for many years in BritainC. humans destroyed natural habitats mainly by growing cropsD. humans planted hedgerows to make home for cattle and sheep15. Which of the following may the writer agree with?A. Setting up reserves is the best way to protect animals.B. We can hardly stop animals from being endangered.C. Things will become better for wild animals in Britain.D. Human activities began to affect wildlife 200 years ago.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）按照短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

These were Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. The youngest sister, Anne, was also a gifted novelist, and her books have the same extraordinary, quality as her sisters'.Their father was Patrick Bronte born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldestchildren died, leaving the father to care for the remaining three girls and a boy.Charlotte was born in 1816. Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew up largely self-educated. Branwell showed a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn money for his arteducation. They took positions as teachers or taught children intheir homes.As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books, each with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriting. Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847, Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher (出版商), but there was no interest shown in Charlotte's book. (It was not published until 1869. ) However, one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her work. Jane Eyre was already started, and she hurriedly finished it.It was accepted at once；Thus each of the sisters bad a book published in 1847.Jane Eyre was immediately successful； The other two, however, did not do. so well. People did not like Wuthering Heights. They said it was too wild, too animal-like. But gradually it came to be considered one of the finest novels in the English language. Emily lived only a short while after the publication of her book, and Anne died in 1847.Charlotte published Shirley in 1849 and Villette in 1853. In 1854 she married Arthur Bell Nicholls. But only a year later, she died of tuberculosis (肺结核) as her sisters had.36. What did the Bronte sisters want to do for Branwell BronteA. Help him write stories.B. Help him get trained in art.C. Teach him how to draw well.D. Teach him how to educate himself.37. We know from the text that _____________________ .A. Jane Eyre was published in 1847B.

None of them lived longer than 40 years old.D. Emily was the least successful of the three.BHow could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectfulZoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting“things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animalsActually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.41．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos A．Dangerous. B．Unhappy. C．Natural. D．Easy.42．In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.A．remain in cages B．behave strangelyC．attack other animals D．enjoy moving around43．What does the author try to argue in the passageA．Zoos are not worth the public support.B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings.D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.44．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.A．pointing out the faults in what zoos doB．using evidence he has collected at zoosC．questioning the way animals are protectedD．discussing the advantages of natural habitats45．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agreethat __________.A．zoos have to keep animals in small cagesB．most animals in zoos are endangered speciesC．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoosD．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats单词拼写（共5小题，10分）46．She felt g________ about leaving her sick child and going to work. 47．Whenever I get into trouble, he comes to my help withouth______________.48．He was too s______________ to admit that he was wrong and refused to say sorry to his girl friend.49．I tried to p______________ him to change his mind but he refused to follow my advice.50．I am sorry that I was a______________ just now and didn’t quite catch what you said.姓名：班级：学号：得分：endangered big cats.

They have more money, more funding and better resources and they don’t have the more challenging students we get in the state sector.That was before I became a teacher-researcher in a two-year project led by my college, aiming to find the best way to support high-ability students. With funding from the London Schools Excellence Fund, we teamed up with some of the country’s top private schools, like Eton and St Paul’s, as well as a number of state schools, to find out how to bring the knowledge-rich learning that characterizes independent schools into the state sector.Before the project, I hadn’t had much contact with people who had been educated there. But the first thing I found when I visited was that teachers are the same. In the independent sector, they have challenges too—just different ones.After two years, our research project has produced a huge set of findings.One of the most useful findings was the importance of independent learning habits outside the classroom. I realized that although I was always telling students that they needed to do four to five hours of private study a week, they didn’t have a clear idea of what this could look like beyond making notes. So I set them different activities including reading articles, doing activities and completing examination questions.I started to put much more emphasis on activities outside the classroom, like researching topics beyond the syllabus(教学大纲) or discussing things in the news. And I praised anyone who asked questions in class, so we created a culture where students were proud to ask a question rather than seeing it as a way of flagging upthe fact that they hadn’t understood something.My research is beginning to have a real influence. My students now come to class and tell me what they want to know about. But they no longer expect me to do the research—they want to find out for themselves. At the end of the year I gave students a questionnaire on independent learning. One wrote, “Independent learning would limit the help I got from other students. It helps you to think for yourself.”4．What did the author say about independent school students before her research? A．They were troublemakers.B．They enjoyed excellent learning conditions.C．They performed worse than state school students.D．They faced the same challenges as state school students.5．Why did the author join the project?A．To introduce good learning methods to state schools.B．To exchange teaching ideas with other teachers.C．To partner with other schools in education.D．To find enough funds for state schools.6．What changes did the author make in her classes?A．She focused on group learning. B．She worked out a different syllabus. C．She encouraged independent learning. D．She carried out various activities in class.7．How is the author’s research going?A．It has made a big difference. B．It has failed to make progress.C．I t is questioned by her students. D．It involves many more students.CThe University of Birmingham is the first excellent UK Russell Group university to announce that it will accept the "Gaokao" exam for high-flying Chinese students wishing to join its undergraduate courses in 2019. High school students who complete the "National Higher Education Entrance Examination", or Gaokao, with top grades will be able to apply for direct entry onto Birmingham degree programmes without first completing a foundation year which is a routine for the freshman.Gaokao is usually taken by students in their last year of senior high school and, every year, each province in China sets the grades required to gain admission to its universities. It is usually held across China in early June. Students are tested in Chinese, Mathematics, a Foreign Language and social sciences or natural sciences.University of Birmingham Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir David Eastwood said: "The University of Birmingham has been challenging and developing great minds for more than a century. We welcome people from around the globe to study at Birmingham and Chinese students form an integral part of our education and research community. We are further opening access to Birmighamˈs wealth of education opportunities for the brightest and most dedicated Chinese students by accepting this strict and important qualification. I look forward to welcoming these high-flying students to the University of Birmingham. "Gaokao is increasingly accepted by universities in Australia, the USA, Canada and mainland Europe. Birmingham will only be considering high quality students who achieve a minimum 80% Gaokao score and meet additional academic and English language requirements.Professor J on Frampton, Director of the University of Birminghamˈs China Institute said: "The University of Birmingham has a long history of educating students from China and one of our most famous graduates is Li Siguang-the founding father of Chinese geology. I am delighted that the University is now accepting the Gaokao. This gives the brightest and best Chinese students an opportunity to move straight into the first year of our undergraduate programmes and experience the benefits of studying at a global Top 100 university, such as Birmingham. "8．What do Chinese students have to do to enter the University of Birmingham before 2019?A．Score over 80% of the universityˈs qualification examination.B．Prepare Birmingham degree programmes.C．Acquire the right to permanent residency.D．Go through a foundation year.9．Who is the announcement intended for?A．Chinese students.B．All people living in the UK.C．The students of the UK.D．The foreign students in China.10．Which of the following best explains "integral" underlined in paragraph 3? A．complete. B．indifferent.C．necessary. D．unimportant.11．What does the text mainly talk about?A．The introduction to the "Gaokao" of China.B．The University of Birminghamˈs admission to Gaokao.C．The high quality students accepted by top universities.D．The history of the University of Birmingham.DWould you BET on the future of this man? He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before?We’ve all known people who run out of steam before they reach life’s halfway mark. I’m not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can’t all get there. I’m talking about people who have stoppe d learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learnto bear with the things we can’t change. We lear n to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos(自我), whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.Many of us equate(视……等同于) “commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence—whether they are driving a truck, or running a store—make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They’ve learned life’s most valuable lesson.12．The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that ________.A．loss of freedom stimulates one’s creativityB．age is not a barrier to achieving on e’s goalC．misery inspires a man to fight against his fateD．disability cannot stop a man’s pursuit of success13．What could be inferred from Paragraph 4？A．Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.B．Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.C．Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.D．Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.14．What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？A．A tough man can tolerate suffering.B．A wise man can live without self-pity.C．A man should try to satisfy people around him.D．A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.15．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage？A．To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.B．To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.C．To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.D．To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.EIf you’re feeling empty, you’re not alone. Many of us feel empty in different ways. For instance, you might feel empty because something is missing in your life. Or the emptiness might stem from slowly abandoning yourselves, not listening to your own hopes and desires. Abandoning yourselves can also spark anxiety, depression, guilt and shame, 16．. Here are several suggestions to help you out.Acknowledge the emptiness. If you're experiencing emptiness that's more like a gaping hole, acknowledge it, and be gentle with yourself. 17． If this emptiness is because of a loved one's passing, get angry with yourself. In that case you learn to live life alongside that hole of missing that person.Explore your feelings of emptiness. Scientists suggested exploring the below questions. We can do this while journaling, taking a walk or drinking a cup of tea.●Do I tell myself positive things?●What am I trying to prove or win?●18．●Am I blaming myself for things that are out of my control?19． Fight the urge to turn to the outside world for fulfillment. Instead of trying to fill the emptiness with drugs, alcohol, TV, computer games or anything else, look within, and spend time with yourself. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but the more you practice devoting time and energy to yourself and caring for yourself, the less present those empty feelings, will be.20．Whether you are experiencing difficult relationships, losses, or feeling a lack of purpose or mining, you are worthy of a fulfilling and meaningful life.
