However,he refused to give up hope.He thought his illness was caused by unhappy thoughts.He didn't want to take medicine to cure himself.Instead,he felt happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.He began to experiment on himself while still in the hospital by watching comedy shows on TV.He quickly found that ten minutes of real laughter during the day gave him two hours of painfree sleep at night.Deciding that the doctors couldn't help him,Mr.Cousins left the hospital and checked into ahotel room,where he could continue his experiments with laughter.For a week,he rested in the hotel,watching comedy shows on TV, reading amusing books,and sleeping whenever he felt tired.Within three weeks,he felt well enough to take a vacation to Puerto Rico,where he began running on the beach for exercise.After a few months,Mr.Cousins was able to carry on his work.He had laughed himself back to health.24.What did the doctors think about Mr.Cousins's disease?A.It would take a week to be cured.B.It might never be cured.C.It could be cured by sleeping more.D.It might be cured by taking medicine. .25.What did Mr.Cousins think might cure his disease?A.Real laughter.B.Taking a vacation.edy shows.D.Doing more exercise.26.What did Mr.Cousins do after he left the hospital?A.He wrote an amusing book.B.He watched TV all day long.C.He continued his experiments.D.He carried on his work soon.27.What is the passage mainly about?A.An amazing life.B.A laughing story.C.A strange disease.D.An interesting cure.CYoung Mister Smith had an idea for his employer.It was an idea for saving money for the company by increasing prices.At the same time,Smith suggested that the company sell goods of less value.If his employer liked the idea,Smith might be given more pay.Perhaps he might even get a better job with the company.Business had been very slow.So Mister Smith's employer thought a few minutes about the idea.But then she shook her head."I am sorry, Smith,"his employer said,"It just will not wash."Now,the meaning of these English words should be,"It will not get clean."Yet Smith's idea did not have anything to do with making something clean.So why did his employer say,"It will not wash."?Most word experts agree that "it will not wash" means it will not work,Eric Partridge wrote that the saying probably developed in Britain in the 1800s.Charlotte Bronte used it in a storypublished in 1849.She wrote,"That won't wash,miss."Mizz Bronte seems to have meant that the dyes（染料）used to color a piece of clothing were not good.The colors could not be depended on to stay in the material.In 19th-Century England,the expression came to mean an undependable statement.It was used mainly to describe an idea.But sometimes it was used about a person.A critic once said of the poet Robert Browning,"He won't wash."The critic did not mean that the poet was not a clean person.He meant that Browning's poems could not be depended on to last.Today,we know that judgment was wrong.Robert Browning is still considered a major poet.But very few people remember the man who said Browning would not wash.28.What did the employer think of Mr.Smith's idea?A.Unbelievable.B.Helpful.C.Creative.D.Unacceptable.29.When did the expression "It just will not wash."probably come into use?A.In the 1600s.B.In the 1700s.C.In the 1800s.D.In the 1900s.30.According to this passage,what is the meaning of "It just will not wash,"?A.It will not work.B.It cannot wash.C.It is not clean.D.It is dependable.31.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.An English poet.B.An English expression.C.A smart employer.D.A loyal employee.DCompared with traditional methods of recording life experiences,such as journal,blog,and weibo,there appears to be a new kind of equipment—lifelogging,which records every little thing that goes on in your life through pictures.Only catching the special times of your life is fast becoming a thing of the past.With lifelogging,it's just like downloading your whole life,minute by minute,and storing it on your computer so that you can always remember exactly what happened in the past.Lifelogging is usually done with a small camera that takes pictures and also records continuous videos.These devices are small in size and can be attached to clothes,so every moment can be recorded with ease.One such device is the Memoto,a camera about the size of a stampwhich takes a photograph every 30 seconds.Memoto aims to give you pictures of every single moment of your life with complete information on where and when you took them.Zeo is a device that records your brain activity as you sleep.It can produce a graph（图表）that you can look at in the morning.So it's possible to know things like how long it took you to sleep after you hit the bed and how many hours of deep sleep you actually enjoyed. .Lifelogging sounds great in a way,but the practice does come with its own set of ers are always at the risk of revealing（揭示）too much information about themselves.There is also the question of the private rights of thousands of other people associated （有关联的）with lifeloggers who would be included in these records.Director of the British Institute of Human Rights,Stephen Bowen,says,"This kind of technology changes our ideas of privacy and offers lots of opportunities to observe our every move in real time."32.What do we know about lifelogging?A.It can work well without a camera.B.It records people's working activities.C.It came into being before blog and weibo.D.It can record every single moment of the day.33.What is Zeo used for?A.Studying how long it takes people to sleep.B.Recording people's brain activity during their sleep.C.Taking pictures and producing graphs based on them.D.Giving information on when and where people take pictures.34.The underlined word "drawbacks" probably means______.A.disadvantagesB.strengthsC.changesD.explanations35.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Disadvantages of Modern LifeloggingB.The Development of Modern TechnologyC.A New Way of Recording Life ExperiencesD.The Difference between Weibo and Lifelogging第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

2016-2017学年第二学期高二年级下学期期末英语试卷
2016-2017学年第二学期高二年级下学期期末英语试卷第一卷一、阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，共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。
A Films provide more than just entertainment．For many peo ple, watching English films is a way to develop language skills ．While watching a film，you are immersed（沉浸在）in the language and can pick up new expressions that you mi ght not find in a textbook．Some difficulties can arise when w atching English films-for example，unfamiliar colloquial language or strong regional accents．Wit h this in mind，here are my tips to help you make progress in English learnin g while enjoying the films．Choose a film genre类型) that you enjoy.If you like action films，watch an action film-for example Indiana Jones．If you prefer comedies，watch a comedy-anything with Hugh Grant in always provides a laugh！It's simple enough，but if you choose something you enjoy watching in your native language，you're more likely to enjoy it in English．Choose something that you are familiar with.It's best to start off with something simple because in this way you have a higher chance of understanding the film．Disney films such as The Lion King，or the more recently released Tangled，are classic examples．Other cartoons such as Up and The L ego Movie are also worth a watch．Ask friends for advicePerhaps you have friends who have already seen English film ?If so ,they may be able to recommend oneIf you need to，use the English subtitlesSubtitles are very helpful for beginners．using subtitles in y our own language is the easiest choice，but for more advanced learners why not consider using Englis h subtitles？This way，you can match the written subtitles to the words spoken on .s creen．It helps you to develop your language further.1. What can we know from the first paragraph ?A . Some expressions from textbooks can be found in Englis h films.B .Unfamiliar spoken language can be neglected when we w atch English films .C. Foreign language films can help us improve our language skills.D Strong regional accents cannot influence the understanding of English films.2. What kind of film will you probably watch if you like Hugh G rant ?A. Action filmsB. Cartoon filmsC. Comedy filmsD. Detective3. One way to get the most out of English films is watching fil ms .A. with a foreignerB. about familiar topicsC. native speakers recommendD. without words o n the screen4. What does the underlined word “subtitles“means in the text ?A. TranslatorsB. Chinese charactersC. English dictionariesD. Words on the screenBWill it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages,from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were give n all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person w orks with his brains.
