2017—2018年下学期高二（16，17）班英语期末试卷第I卷(非选择题满分100分）第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给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。
AAmerican students often have to take out loans to help pay for their education. Some students are very interested in the cost of undergraduate and graduate study in the United Sates. The first thing we should know is that the prices are different from school to school. The private colleges and universities generally cost more than public ones. Another thing to keep in mind is that not all students pay the “published price” of a school. Financial aid and scholarships may reduce the cost.The average published price for undergraduate study at a four-year public college was about seven thousand dollars. That was for students from “ in state”. Students from other states as well as international students paid an average of more than eighteen thousand dollars. This is the bad news—international students often have to pay the highest prices. And these averages were only for tuition（学费）fees. Food, housing, books and supplies can add ten to twelve thousand dollars a year. The College Board says the average tuition at a private college was about twenty-six thousand dollars.Many students save money by starting their education at a two-year public college, also known as a community college. The average tuition this year was about two thousand five hundred dollars.A few American colleges provide a free education, including the military and Merchant Marine academies. They accept some foreign students. Berea College is a small Christian school in Berea, Kentucky, that pays all first-year costs for its foreign students. But they are expected to pay one thousand dollars a year after that. Summer jobs are provided to help meet this cost.Costs for graduate study in the United States also differ from school to school, and even from program to program. Here too, public universities charge more for out-of-state tuition. For example, at the University of Kentucky, out-of-state graduate tuition averaged about eighteen thousand dollars this year. In-state was about nine thousand.21. The passage is mainly talking about_______.A. how much an undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the United States.B. how an undergraduate or graduate can choose a suitable program or college in the USA.C. how much a foreign undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the USA.D. why so many undergraduates and graduates are studying in the USA.22. Generally speaking, the annual cost of a foreign college student in a public college in theUSA is _______.A. 36-40 thousand dollarsB. 17-19 thousand dollarsC. 26 thousand dollarsD. 28-30 thousand dollars23. What should an American graduate do in order to save money according to the passage?A. He should choose a public university in his own state.B. He should choose those unfamous public universities.C. He should avoid changing his major at college.D. He should try to do some part-time jobs.24. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The college tuition in America is higher than that in other countries.B. The higher the tuition is, the better the college is in the USA.C. Not all the parents in the USA will pay their children’s tuition of college.D. Some American students have to leave college because of the high tuition.BWe want our children to succeed, in school and, perhaps even more importantly, in life. But the paradox(悖论) is that our children can only truly succeed if they first learn how to fail. Consider the finding that world-class figure skaters fall over more often in practice thanlow-level figure skaters. At first sight this seems contradictory. Why are the really good skaters falling over the most?The reason is actually quite simple. Top skaters are constantly challenging themselves in practice, attempting jumps that stretch their limitations. This is why they fall over so often, but it is precisely why they learn so fast. Lower-level skaters have a quite different approach. They are always attempting jumps they can already do very easily, remaining within their comfort zone. This is why they don’t fall over. In a superficial sense, they look successful, because they are always on their feet. The truth, however, is that by never failing, they never progress.What is true of skating is also true of life. James Dyson worked through 5,126 failed prototypes(原型) for his dual cyclone vacuum before coining up with the design that made hisfortune. These failures were essential to the pathway of learning. As Dyson put it: “You can’t develop new technology unless you test new ideas and learn when things go wrong. Failure is essential to invention.”In healthcare, however, things are very different. Clinicians don’t like to admit to failure, partly because they have healthy egos(自我)(particularly the senior doctors) and partly because they fear litigation(诉讼). The consequence is that instead of learning from failure, healthcare often covers up failure. The direct consequence is that the same mistakes are repeated. According to the Journal of Patient Safety, 400,000 people die every year in American hospitals alone due to preventable error. Until healthcare learns to respond positively to failure, things will not improve.But let us return to children. One of the major mistakes in education in the 1970s was the attempt to equip children with confidence by giving them lots of successes （setting the bar very low）. The consequence was that the ego of kids became bound up with success, and they became unable to take risks and collapsed as soon as they hit a proper challenge.We need to flip(翻转) this approach. In a complex world, failure is inevitable. It is those individuals and institutions that have the flexibility to face up to failure, learn the lessons and adapt which eventually excel(突出).25. The question raised in the first paragraph is to ________.A. open up a discussion on the topicB. analyze the reason for successC. express the author’s oppositionD. doubt the abilities of the top skaters26. Which of the following is the structure of the passage?A. B. C、D、①---Paragraph1 ②---Paragraph2 ③---Paragraph3④---Pargrapha4 ⑤---Paragraph5 ⑥---Paragraph627. What would be the best title for the passage?A. How we can avoid failure in lifeB. What we should learn from failureC. Why failure is the key to flying highD. Where we further improve ourselvesCRecent summer temperatures in parts of Australia were high enough to melt asphalt. As global warming speeds up the heat and climatic events increase, many plants may be unable to cope. But at least one species of eucalyptus tree can resist extreme heat by continuing to “sweat” when other essential processes stop, a new study finds.As plants change sunlight into food, or photosynthesize (光合作用), they absorb carbon dioxide through pores on their leaves. These pores also release water via transpiration(蒸腾), which circulates nutrients through the plant and helps cool it by evaporation(蒸发). But exceptionally high temperatures are known to greatly reduce photosynthesis—and most existing plant models suggest this should also decrease transpiration, leaving trees in danger of fatally overheating. Because it is difficult for scientists to control and vary trees’ conditions in their natural environment, little is known about how individual species handle this situation.Ecologist John Drake of the S.U.N.Y. College of Environmental Science and Forestry and his colleagues grew a dozen Parramatta red gum (Eucalyptus parramattensis) trees in large, climate-controlled plastic pods that separated the trees from the surrounding forest for a year in Richmond, Australia. Six of the trees were grown at surrounding air temperatures and six at temperatures three degrees Celsius higher. The researchers withheld (扣留) water from the surface soil of all 12 trees for a month to imitate a mild dry spell, then induced a four-day “extreme” heat wave: They raised the maximum temperatures in half of the pods（three with surrounding temperatures and three of the warmer ones）— to 44 degrees ℃.Photosynthesis ground to a near halt in the trees facing the artificial heat wave. But to the researcher s’ surprise, these trees continued to transpire at close-to-normal levels, effectively cooling themselves and their surroundings. The trees grown in warmer conditions coped just as well as the others, and photosynthesis rates bounced back to normal after the heat wave passed, Drake and his colleagues reported online in Global Change Biology.The researchers think the Parramatta red gums were able to effectively sweat — even without photosynthesis — because they are particularly good at tapping into water deep in the soil. But if a heat wave and a severe drought (干旱) were to hit at the same time and the groundwater was exhausted, the trees may not be so lucky, Drake says.Other scientists call the finding encouraging. “It’s definitely good news,” says Trevor Keenan, an ecologist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, who was not part of the study. “It would be very interesting to know how this translates to other species,” he adds. Drake hopes to conduct similar experiments with trees common in North America.28. How does one species of eucalyptus tree cope with extreme heat waves?A. By releasing water.B. By blocking sunlight.C. By absorbing groundwater.D. By reducing photosynthesis.29. What did the researchers do during their study?A. They grew all the trees in artificial temperatures.B. They induced a heat wave in a dozen pods of trees.C. They created climate-controlled surroundings for trees.D. They varied trees’ conditions in their natural environment.30. The underlined phrase “ground to a near halt” in Paragraph 4 means “________”.A. continuedB. substitutedC. strengthenedD. ceased31. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. Photosynthesis is necessary for the trees to sweat.B. No further experiments will be done other species.C. Other species will be transplanted to North America.D. Groundwater helps the trees survive the extreme heat.DMore than five million different kinds of organisms(生物体) live on the Earth. For thousands of years, humans have searched for ways to organize this diversity(多样性). In the eighteenth century, a Swedish professor, physician, and naturalist named Carolus Linnaeus developed the system of naming and classifying organisms that we use today.Linnaeus contributed to the modern classification of organisms in two ways. He first developed a convention for naming life forms.Before Linnaeus came up with a standardized system of naming, there were often many names for a single species, and these names tended to be long and confusing. Linnaeus decided that all species names should be in Latin and should have two parts, one indicating the genus(plural: genera), a group that includes similar species and one indicating the specific name of the species. When written alone, the specific name is meaningless since many different species in different genera have the same specific name. The specific name familiaris, for example, is commonly used to describe species. Therefore, when used by itself,it would not describe any one organism. When the genus is also given, however, as in Canis familiaris, we know that the name refers to a specific organism: the domestic dog.Linnaeus was also the originator of modern taxonomy, a system of classifying nature based on hierarchical(分层的) groupings. Linnaeus first grouped life forms into three broad groups, called kingdoms. These kingdoms were animals, plants, and minerals. He divided each of these kingdoms into classes, classes into orders, orders into genera (genus is singular) and then genera into species, grouping organisms according to shared physical characteristics.Although modern taxonomists still use t he hierarchical structure of Linnaeus’s classification system as well as his method of grouping organisms according to observable similarities, they have added hierarchical levels and significantly changed Linnaeus’s original groupings. The broadest level of life is now a domain. All living things fit into only three domains. Within each of these domains there are kingdoms. Each kingdom contains phyla (singular is phylum), followed by class, order, family, genus, and species.In addition to the Linnaean kingdoms of plants and animals, biologists recognize prokaryotes, protists, and fungi as separate kingdoms. The prokaryotes are the oldest and most abundant group of organisms. They are also the smallest cellular organisms. Common bacteria, which have been known to survive in many environments that support no other form of life, fall into this category. The protist kingdom is made up of a variety of single-celled or simple multicellular organisms. Protists do not have much in common. They are, essentially, those organisms which do not fit into any other kingdom. Fungi compose a third kingdom. Like plants, the cells of fungi have cell walls, giving them a tube-like structure. However, fungi do not produce their own carbon as plants do. Rather, they acquire nutrients by absorbing and digesting carbon produced by other organisms. Yeasts and mushrooms are examples of fungi.32. The writer gives the scientific name of the domestic dog in paragraph 3 in order to ____.A. demonstrate Linnaeus’s method of classificatio nB. introduce the need for a better system of naming organismsC. criticize the complexity of Linnaeus’s naming systemD. illustrate the necessity of including two parts when naming organism33. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. The hierarchical structure of Linnaeus’s system for classifying is no longer in use.B. Linnaeus’s original system of classification consisted of 3 domains.C. Linnaeus’s original system of classification is used today with little modifications.D. Modern taxonomists have added categories and regrouped organisms.34. Which of the following is TRUE about protists?A. They do not share the characteristics of any of the other four kingdoms.B. They are grouped together based on similar characteristics.C. They are limited to single-cell organisms.D. They acquire nutrients by eating other organisms.35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Father of Modern TaxonomyB. Classifying OrganismsC. Development in Life FormsD. Linnaeus’s Classification System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。

But usually people would accept tame(温顺的) and loyal(忠诚的) animals as pets rather than dangerous ones such as a lion，a tiger or a snake.People love pets and take good care of them. The owners usually regard pets as good friends and some even consider them as members of the family. Although they are not human beings(人类), their behavior sometimes is better than human beings, for they are always loyal to their owners. There are always many stories about brave and smart pets. We often hear that a pet dog saved the owner's life or traveled thousands of miles to return home. Such stories often make pets more lovely.Some pets can also be trained to help people with some special work. For example, trained dogs can help the blind to walk and trained dogs and pigs can even help police to find where drugs are easily.But pets are sometimes trouble-makers. Some pets like dogs or snakes may hurt people without any warning. Some people may become ill after being hurt because of the virus carried by the pets. If they are not taken good care of, they will become very dirty and easily get ill. So pets are helpful to us but keeping pets is not an easy job.51.

During the Spring Festival, I played fireworks but my finger was hurt because I was careless to light the fireworks. I began to fear playing with fireworks from then.I was still unlucky on my friend’s party. On my friend’s birthday, unusually I woke up at 10:50 because my parents went to visit my grandmother early in the morning. The party would start in 10 minutes! So I hurried to my friend’s home without breakfast. I returned very late that day and when I got home, my parents were very angry with me.Another worrying thing was my weight.

Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends. Let them find you. You can help them find you by staying in one place. There is another way to help your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistle (吹口哨) three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help.Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun.

江西省景德镇一中2017-2018学年高二英语下学期期中试题第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）第二部分：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）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。
APortuguese and Spanish explorers made the first European voyage into unknown waters. Curiosity, religion and economic goals drove these courageous men forward. Their voyages resulted in great advances for the sponsoring governments and served as the foundation for future empires.One man largely responsible for Portugal’s interest in exploration was a member o f the Portuguese royal family named Prince Henry. Also known as “The Navigator”, Prince Henry’s primary goal was to find gold for Portugal. The Portuguese also hoped to find a way to the rich spice trade of the Indies and to spread the Christian faith.Henry gathered many Europe’s best geographers and navigators to plan expeditions. By about 1420 or earlier, his navigators were exploring westward into the Atlantic, and by the 1430s, they were moving southward along the west coast of Africa. Henry’s explorers claimed the Azores for Portugal. In Africa, they began to trade for slaves, gold and ivory.The success of these early voyages of discovery and exploration created great excitement throughout Europe. Success encouraged more voyages. In 1488, Baritolomeu Dias sailed around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa. Although Dias had to turn back, he had found the route to the Indian Ocean.Using this knowledge, Vasco da Gama sailed eastward across the Indian Ocean. He landed in India in 1498. Several years later, da Gama made a second voyage to India. He returned to Portugal, his ships full of valuable goods.Thanks to Dias and da Gama, an overseas trade route from Europe to India and the East Indies was now available. Rich cargoes of spices and jewels arrived in Portugal.This direct ocean route saved the Portuguese from having to deal with middlemen traders. Now, the Portuguese could journey directly to the sources of the trade goods they sought. In many cases ,ships could carry goods more cheaply than could overland caravans(大篷车). Nor could Portuguese merchants be blocked or charged high fees by competing powers that controlled overland routes. Overseas trade promised wealth for merchants and sailors and goods for Europe’s markets.21. The main purpose of Henry’s voyage was to ____________.A. explore the unknown waters beyond EuropeB. find gold for the royal familyC. seek for a route to the Indian OceanD. expand Portuguese trade to Africa22.Who was the first to find the route to the Indian Ocean?A .Prince Henry . B. Vasco da Gama.C. Baritolomeu Dias.D. Portuguese merchants.23.It can be inferred from the passage that ___________.A. Merchants used to be charged high fees by middlemen traders.B. Prince Henry blocked Portuguese merchants along overland routes.C. Dias and da Gama were the pioneers to reach the Cape of Good Hope.D. The overseas trade route from Europe to India benefited Portugal a lot .BBillboard Music Awards of the Year of 2015 goes to Taylor Swift, a singer-songwriter, who has shaped and inspired the American music industry with her success.When Taylor Swift first came to public notice, she was a 17-year-old newcomer who loved singing to her own guitar. She was far more enthusiastic than skilled, but apparently threw spark of superb talent.Four years later, Swift has become a multi-awards winner, with the biggest selling albums. For her consummate performance, Taylor Swift was named Billboard magazine’s woman in 2011. She is the youngest artist to receive honors and several Billboard Music Award, among which Top Country Album for the five-time platinum（白金）sellingSpeak Now, her third album was released that year.“Taylor has shown the power of good songwriting with music of styles.” said Bill Werde, Billboard’s editorial director, “And at such a young age, Taylor has already made a major impact on music and has been an unbelievable role model for promising artists and young woman everywhere.”Swift is used to breaking chart records and winning honors since her career started. She followed that up in 2008 with Fearless, which established her as a skilled songwriter with several hits, including Love Story, You belong with me and White Horse.Not surprisingly, the 6-time platinum Fearless is the most awarded album in country music history in the US and her overall worldwide sales now reach 20 million albums and 40 million songs downloads. Swift has spent the past year on the Speak Now World Tour in support of her third albu m, and now she’s getting ready to go further.According to a recent interview with The New Yorker magazine, Swift has so far written about 10 songs for a 2016 album. She said the new album is about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.“They’re sad if I’m being honest.” Swift told The New Yorker. “They’re about my heartbreaks and my moving on. But more importantly, they are about achieving contentment. You’re not always going to be ridiculously happy as you grow up.”24. As a new comer in the show business, Taylor Swift was considered to be ______.A. a skilled songwriterB. an outstanding artistC. an energetic directorD. a promising talent25. The underlined word “consummate” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by ____.A. confidentB. professionalC. excellentD. different26. What can we learn from the passage?A. Speak Now is Taylor Swift third album.B. Fearless marked the beginning of Swift’s career.C. Swift’s new album is about feelings of grown-up.D. Swift has gained Billboard magazine’s woman twice.27. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. A Rising Music GeniusB. Taylor’s Heartbreaks in GrowthC. An Interview with Taylor SwiftD. Billboard Music Awards in AmericaCMany United States companies have made the search for legal protection from import competition into a major line of work. Since 1980, the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has received about 280 complaints alleging damage from imports that benefit from subsidies(补贴) by foreign governments. Another 340 charge that foreign companies “dumped” their products in the United States at “less than fair value.” Even when no unfair practices are clai med, the simple claim that an industry has been injured by imports is sufficient grounds to seek relief(救济).Contrary to the general impression, this request for import relief has hurt more companies than it has helped. As corporations begin to function globally, they develop a complicated web of marketing, production, and research relationships. The complexity of these relationships makes it unlikely that a system of import relief laws will meet the strategic needs of all the units under the same parent company. Internationalization increases the danger that foreign companies will use import relief laws against the very companies the laws were designed to protect. Suppose a United States-owned company establishes an overseas plant to manufacture a product while its competitor makes the same product in the United States. If the competitor can prove injury from the imports—and that the United States company received a subsidy from a foreign government to build its plant abroad—the United States company’s produ cts will be uncompetitive in the United States, since they would be subject to duties.Perhaps the most shameful case occurred when the ITC investigated allegations(控诉) that Canadian companies were injuring the United States salt industry by dumping rock salt, used to deice roads. The bizarre aspect of the complaint was that a foreign conglomerate（联合企业）with United States operations was crying for help against a United States c ompany with foreign operations. The “United States” company claiming injury was a unit of a Dutch conglomerate, while the “Canadian” companiesincluded a unit of a Chicago firm that was the second-largest domestic producer of rock salt.28.The passage is chiefly concerned with_______________A.arguing against the increased internationalization of US corporationsB.warning that the application of laws affecting trade frequently has unintendedconsequencesC.recommending a uniform method for handling claims of unfair trade practicesD.advocating the use of trade restrictions for "dumped" products but not for otherimports.29.What can be inferred about the minimal basis for a complaint to the ITC _______.A. A foreign competitor is selling products in the US at less than fair market value.B. A foreign competitor has greatly increased the volume of products shipped tothe US.C. The company requesting import relief has been banned from exporting products.D. The company requesting import relief has been injured by the sale of importsin the US.30. What is the function of the last paragraph?A. It summarizes the discussion and suggests additional areas for research.B. It makes a recommendation based on the evidence presented earlier.C. It uses a specific case to illustrate a problem in the previous paragraph.D. It introduces an additional area of concern not mentioned earlier.31. Which of the following is most likely to be true of US trade laws?A. They will eliminate the practice of "dumping" products in the US.B. Those applied to international companies will help to gain more profits.C. They will affect US trade with Canada more negatively than trade with other nations.D. Those helping one unit within a parent company won’t necessarily help other units.DThe endless debate about “work-life balance” often contains a hopeful footnote about stay-at-home dads．If American society and business won’t make it easier on future female leaders who choose to have children，there is still the ray of hope that increasing numbers of full-time fathers will. But based on today’s socioeconomic trends，this hope is，unfortunately，misguided．It’s true that the numb er of men who have left work to do their thing as full-time parents has doubled in a decade，but it’s still very small：only 0．8％of married couples where the stay-at-home father was out of the labor force for a year．Even that percentage is likely inflated by men thrust into their caretaker role by a downsizing．This is simply not a large enough group to reduce the social stigma(污名)and force other adjustments necessary to supporting men in this decision, even if only for a relatively short time．Even shorter times away from work for working fathers are already difficult．A study found that 85％of new fathers take some time off after the birth of a child—but for all but a few．it’s a week or two at most．Meanwhile，the average for women who take leave is more than l0 weeks．Such choices impact who moves up in the organization．While you’re away，someone else is doing your work，making your sales，taking care of your customers．That can’t help you at work．It can only hurt you．Women，of course，face the same issues of returning after a long absence．But with many more women than men choosing to leave the workforce entirely to raise families，returning from an extended parental leave doesn’t raise as many eyebrows as it does for men．Women would make more if they didn’t break their earning trajectory(轨迹)by leaving the workforce，or if higher-paying professions were more family- friendly．In the foreseeable future，stay-at-home fathers may make all the difference for individual families, but their presence won’t reduce the numbers of high-potential women who are forced to choose between family and career．32．What gives women a ray of hope to achieve work-life balance?A. More men taking an extended parental leave．B. People’s changing attitudes towards family．C. More women entering business management．D. The improvement of their socioeconomic status．33．Why does the author say the hope for more full-time fathers is misguided?A. Women are better at taking care of children．B. Many men value work more than their family．C. Their number is too small to make a difference．D. Not many men have the chance to stay at home．34．Why do few men take a long parental leave?A. A long leave will have a negative impact on their career．B. They just have too many responsibilities to fulfill at work．C. The economic loss will be too much for their family to bear．D. They are likely to get fired if absent from work for too lon9．35．What does the author say about high-potential women in the not-too-distant future?A. They will benefit from the trend of more fathers staying at home．B. They will still face the difficult choice between career and children．C. They are unlikely to break their career trajectory to raise a family．D. They will find high-paying professions a bit more family-friendly．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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

绝密★启用前江西省景德镇市第一中学2018-2019学年高二上学期期中考试英语（实验班）试题试卷副标题注意事项：1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上第I 卷（选择题）请点击修改第I 卷的文字说明 一、阅读理解Sometimes the best advice doesn’t come from a book, a microphone, from behind a desk in Washington or even from the people who are the leaders in their fields. Sometimes the best life lessons are found deep in the roots of where we came from. My father passed away years ago, but I always remember the lessons he taught me. Three of them particularly shape my perspective day after day.The first one is that little things make big things happen. To the best of my memory, when I was young, we needed to build a new shed. Those were the days when stores like Home Depot and Lowes didn’t exist. Brand -new timber (木料) was expensive, so folks often reused the materials that others in the community didn’t need. That summer, Dad and I used the boards from an old abandoned barn. We pulled them down one by one, drew the nails out and took off the tin and straightened it in order to reuse it. We got our supplies back to our yard and got to work. I don’t know how much of a help I really was, but I chose to stay beside Dad the entire period, working along with him.The sun was hot that day, and sweat formed and ran down our faces. I stood there and handed him the nails one by one, which were hammered into that shed. Dad made me feel proud of my work. Even though I just handed him the nails, he repeatedly emphasized how we built the new shed “together”. He taught me that when you’re willing to do hard work, even in little things, big things come together.试卷第2页，总13页The second one is that we should honor our promises. As a young man, my father always carried a pocket-sized Bible in his chest pocket. Shortly before the invasion of Normandy in 1944, he prayed for God’s protection and promised God that if he made it home, he would make sure his family attended church every Sunday. Well, he made it home and he kept that promise. I cannot remember a Sunday when Dad did not take my mother, my siblings and me to church — even when we were away on vacation. I now have my Dad’s pocket Bible. It is one of my most treasured possessions, an d it serves as a constant reminder of my dad’s service to his country. However, it also serves as a visual representation of my dad’s firm determination to keep his promises.Today, I place great value on my family and my faith, undoubtedly because of my d ad’s example. This lesson of promise has been introduced into all areas of my life.The third one is that listening is a way to acquire wisdom. My dad and I kept ourselves busy doing a lot of things together. During the nights of late summer, after dinner, the whole family would gather on our small porch to talk as the sun went down. Sometimes an aunt or uncle would drop by, and at other times my grandparents would be there. They would talk about the neighborhood news, the goings-on in modern Western society and politics — mostly ordinary things, but it was good to sit there listening and to be together. Moreover, sitting there on the porch as dusk faded into night, I learned the value of listening and observing. Sometimes taking a moment to pause gives us the best perspective and sometimes we find the best answers simply by listening.Life in America becomes more complex. However, I like to think back to the simple lessons I learned from my father. They were the building blocks of my character and the values that still guide me today. Perhaps someone who has influence on your life taught you life lessons that helped form your character. I’m convinced that our nation could gain a lot by applying these lessons today. If we did, I think we would be reminded that the reason why our nation has become great is not merely that we have had wise leaders or well-spoken elected officials. Our nation has become great because of those ordinary Americans like my father, who have pride in their work, place great value on honesty, character and commitments, and pass those lessons on to their children and grandchildren. And that is the reason why we are still great today. 1．While building the new shed with his father, the author . A ． tried his best to help his father B ． realized how hard his father workedC．managed to get in touch with some folksD．was curious about everything2．Why does the author keep his father’s pocket Bible?A．He has great faith in religion.B．It reminds him to keep his promises.C．He takes it to church every Sunday.D．It reminds him of his father’s survival in the match.3．What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?A．The importance of keeping family values.B．Three lessons he learned from his father.C．The happy time he spent with his father.D．The factors making a country rich and strong.4．It can be inferred from the passage that .A．wise leaders determine a country’s statusB．the author dislikes the well-spoken officialsC．ordinary people have an effect on a country’s futureD．the author’s father was greater than anyone else in his heartIt’s rare that the protagonist in a Chinese movie wins the audience’s hearts with an emotionally uplifting message, rather than by showing off his or her good looks. But Wolf Warrior II is putting China in the global spotlight. It’s also the first film to taste success both in terms of box office earnings and promoting Chinese values.Kung fu artist Wu Jing both starred in and directed the action movie. Since its release on July 27, it’s earned an unimaginable 4.5 billion yuan, setting a record for domestic movies at the box office. The success of the film has surpassed the anticipations of all, including the production team.The film focuses on a rescue operation in Africa, led by former special forces soldier Leng Feng-played by Wu. Leng helps Chinese workers and local Africans flee a war-torn and plague-ravaged country. Wolf Warrior II links art to reality, and reminds people of the massive evacuation of Chinese people from Libya when civil war broke out there in 2011, and from Yemen in 2015, as well as the challenges the Ebola virus created in West Africa from 2013 to2016. The film describes how the Chinese government aims to protect overseas Chinese试卷第4页，总13页citizens. Just as the m essage at the end of the film reads: “Citizens of the People’s Republic of China. When you encounter danger in a foreign land, do not give up! Please remember, at your back stands a strong motherland.”Thanks to China’s increasing participation in global a ffairs, now could be considered the right moment to introduce a modern Chinese hero.“Holding up a banner of peace, friendship and responsibility, Wolf Warrior II should be seen as a brave effort to promote Chinese values around the world,” columnist Zhu P ing wrote in China Daily.“It’s time Chinese filmmakers produced films that tell good stories and carry the right spirit. Let us assume Wolf Warrior II has started that trend.” 5．We can learn from passage that .A ． leading characters in Chinese movies are mostly popular for their appearanceB ． it is hard for a protagonist in Chinese movies to win the audience’s heartsC ． Wolf Warrior Ⅱ is the first Chinese movie to spread Chinese valuesD ． the production team is not surprised at the big box-office success 6．The film is popular with the audience mostly because . A ． Kung fu artist Wu Jing both starred in and directed it B ． it attempts to promote Chinese values around the world C ． it is backed up and funded by the Chinese government D ． it shows that China is playing an active role in global affairs 7．The underlined word in para.3 can be replaced by . A ． worry about B ． hang out C ． fall into D ． come acrossRecently, we have already shown that climate change has led to a dramatic increase in storm surge risk in New York City, making devastating events like Hurricane Sandy more likely. What can we say about the role of climate change in the unprecedented disaster that is unfolding in Houston with Hurricane Harvey? There are certain climate change-related factors that we can, with great confidence, say worsened the flooding.Sea Level rise attributable to climate change-some of which is due to coastal subsidence(下沉) caused by human disturbance such as oil drilling-is more than half a foot(15cm) over the past few decades. That means the storm surge was half a foot higher than it would have been justdecades ago, meaning far more flooding and destruction.In addition to that, sea surface temperatures in the region have risen about 0.5℃(close to 1F) over the past few decades from roughly 30℃(86F) to 30.5℃(87F), which contributed to the very warm sea surface temperatures(30.5-31℃, or 87-88F). There is a simple thermodynamic(热力学的) relationship known as the Clausius-Clapeyron equation that tells us there is a roughly 3% increase in average atmospheric moisture content for each 0.5℃ of warming. Sea surface temperatures in the area where Harvey intensified were 0.5-1℃ warmer than current-day average temperatures, which translates to 1-1.5℃warme r than “average” temperatures a few decades ago. That means 3-5% more moisture(水分) in the atmosphere. That large amount of moisture creates the potential for much greater rainfalls and greater flooding. The combination of coastal flooding and heavy rainfall is responsible for the devastating flooding that Houston is experiencing.Not only are the surface waters of the Gulf of Mexico unusually warm right now, but there is a deep layer of warm water that Harvey was able to feed upon when it intensified at near record pace as it neared the coast. Human-caused warming is penetrating down into the ocean. It’s creating deeper layers of warm water in the Gulf and elsewhere. Harvey was almost certainly more intense than it would have been in the absence of human-caused warming, which means stronger winds, more wind damage and a larger storm surge.Finally, the more tenuous but potentially relevant climate factors: part of what has made Harvey such a devastating(毁灭性的) storm is the way it has stalled near the coast. It continues to strike Houston and surrounding regions with a seemingly endless flood, which will likely top out at nearly 4ft(1.22m) of rainfall over a days-long period before it is done. The stalling is due to very weak prevailing winds, which are failing to steer the storm off to sea, allowing it to spin around and wobble back and forth. This pattern, in turn, is associated with a greatly expanded subtropical high pressure system over much of the US at the moment, with the jet stream pushed well to the north. This pattern of subtropical expansion is predicted in model simulations of human-caused climate change. More tenuous(微弱的), but possibly relevant still, is the fact that very persistent, nearly “stationary” summer weather patterns of this sort, where weather anomalies(both high-pressure dry hot regions and low-pressure stormy/rainy regions) stay locked in place for many days at a time, appears to be favoured by human-caused climate change.In conclusion, while we cannot say climate change “caused” Hurric ane Harvey, what we can试卷第6页，总13页………○…………装……※※请※※不※※要※※在※………○…………装……say is that it exacerbated several characteristics of the storm in a way that greatly increased the risk of damage and loss of life. Climate change worsened the impact of Hurricane Harvey. 8．What’s the main purpose of writing the pa ssage? A ． To offer tips on climate change.B ． To advocate paying more attention to current climate change urgently.C ． To share experiences on avoiding climate change.D ． To criticize human-caused climate change.9．The underlined word “intensified” in Para graph 4 probably means ________.

To blame the other guy is even more human. Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular sentences are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature .To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do .The original quote about human nature went like this: “ To err is human, to forgive, divine(神圣的).”.This saying mirrors an ideal people should be forgiving of others’ mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite –find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine ．Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company, “the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论)to that: if good excuse is “good” even if it isn’t honest, then where is the place of the truth?12．According to the passage, which of following seems the most human?试卷第8页，总13页A ． To search for truth ．B ． To achieve one’s idealC ． To criticize others for one’s own error.D ． To make fun of others’ mistakes ．13．Which of the following is NOT based on common sense? A ． A man tries to take charge of everything in a large company. B ． A student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather. C ． A company’s next move follows a good plan ． D ． A lawyer acts on fine judgments ．14．What is the author’s opinion about a good excuse ? A ． Bitter truth is better than a good excuse. B ． Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas. C ． A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty. D ． Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy. 15．What would be the best title for his passage?A ． To Blame or to ForgiveB ． A Mirror of Human NatureC ． A Mark of MaturityD ． Truth or Excuse 二、七选五While your teen may get OK by waiting until the last possible second to complete his high school science experiment or his math project, procrastination (拖延症) can be a big problem later in life. Your teen’s future boss or college professors aren’t likely to accept late work -- or the excuses that accompany delayed projects.16．That means managing his time wisely without requiring constant reminders of assistance from you to get his work done. Here are some steps you can take to teach your teen essential time management skills:17．If you’re always running late or you miss a lot of deadlines, your teen will follow suit.

FLC was founded in 1997 in FranceBI was wandering around the Albuquerque International Sunport Airport. My flight had been delayed and I heard an announcement: “If anyone near Gate A – 4 understands Arabic(阿拉伯语)，please e to the gate immediately. ” Gate A – 4 was my own gate. I went there.An older woman was crumpled (蜷缩成一团的) on the floor, she reminded me of my grandmother.“Talk to her,” urged the flight agent. “We told her the flight was going to be late, and she did this.”I bent over to put my arm around the woman and spoke uncertainly. “Shu-dow-a, shu-bid-uck, habibti? She stopped crying. She thought the flight had been canceled. She needed to be in El Paso for a medical treatment the next day. I said, “You’ll get there, jus t late. Who is picking you up? Let’s call him.”We called her son. In English, I told him that I would stay with his mother until we got on the plane. She talked with him. Then we called her other sons just for fun. Then we called my dad, and they spoke for a while in Arabic and found out that they had several shared friends. After that, I called some Palestinian poets I know and let them chat with her.She was laughing a lot by then, patting my knee and answering questions. She pulled a bag of home-made cookies filled with nuts and topped with sugar from her bag and offered them to the women at the gate. To my amazement, no one refused. It was like a sacrament (圣餐). The traveler from Argentina, the mom from California, the lovely woman from Laredo —we were all smiling, covered with the same sugar.I looked around that gate and thought: This is the world I want to live in, one with no anxiety. This can still happen anywhere, I thought. Not everything is lost.24. What can we learn about the author?A. She was highly skilled in speaking Arabic.B. Her grandmother saw her off at the airport.C. She took the same flight with the older woman.D. Her father was an acquaintance of the older woman.25. Why did the older woman burst into tears at the boarding gate?A.

A Strange Palestinian WomanC. Cookies at Gate A – 4D. A Wonderful WorldCStanding in line for the latest iPhone at the Apple store, queueing for tickets to Wimbledon or even just waiting at the post office might just have got a lot easier. Japanese car-maker Nissan （尼桑）claims to have just the thing to relieve the sore(酸痛的) legs of tired queuers.The new system of “self-driving” chairs is designed to detect when someone at the front of the queue is called, and automatically move everyone else one step forward in line. The new invention is shown off in a pany video, which shows a busy restaurant with customers waiting outside.In the video, diners are sitting in a row of chairs, but will not have to stand when the next hungry diner is called to a table. Instead, the chairs, equipped with autonomous technology that detects the seat ahead, move along a path toward the front of the line. When the person at the front of the queue is called, the empty chair at the front can sense it is empty and so moves out of pole position. Cameras on the remaining chairs then sense the movement and follow automatically.The system, which is similar to the kind used in Nissan’s autonomous vehicle technology, will be tested at selected r estaurants in Japan this year. Nissan said. “It appeals to anyone who has queued for hours outside a crowded restaurant: it eliminates the boredom and physicalpain of standing in line,” Nissan added.Although Tokyo has some 160,000 restaurants, long queues are not unmon. Chosen restaurantsthat meet the criteria will be able to show the chairs outside their restaurant next year. Nissan also released a short video showing the chairs being used in an art gallery, moving slowly in front of the various paintings to let viewers appreciate the art without the need to stand up.28. What can we know about the “self-driving” chairs from the text?A. They are in hot demand like iPhone.B. They are intended for queueing diners.C. They are the invention of a car pany.D. They are pletely different from vehicle technology.29. What enables the chairs to detect the seat ahead?A. Pole position.B. Autonomous technology.C. Cameras equipped on them.D. Sensors equipped along the path.30. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “eliminates” in Paragraph 4?A. Steals.B. Reduces.C. Removes.D. Hides.31. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. Queueing is a rare scene outside Japanese restaurants.B. “Self-driving” chairs are the most useful in art galleries.C. Japanese people prefer eating in restaurants to at home.D. “Self-driving” chairs haven’t been in official use in restaurants.DEncouraging pupils to keep noise to a minimum should be a valuable part of all children’s education, according to a new research.Dr. Helen Lees, from Stirling University’s school of education, says that “enforced (强制的) silence” is seen as a punishment and often acts to suppress children’s natural ability.But she says that teaching children about the benefits of “enforced silence” — deliberate stillness that gives them the opportunity to focus and reflect in a stress-free environment —can have a significant effect on pupils’ concentration and behaviour.It is the latest in a string of researches to establish a link between the classroom environment and pupils’ academic ability.A study almost a decade ago in London found that children’s exam results were cut by as much as a third if they taught in noisy classrooms. Teaching unions have also called for a limit of 26℃ to be put on classroom temperatures because teachers and pup ils struggle to workin hot conditions and some educationalists claim that too much clutter(杂乱的东西) on classroom walls can prevent children from concentrating.Dr. Lees said: “When we take some research on school settings and put it all together, what we see is that education without silence does not make much sense. In areas of better learning outes, better self-confidence and well-being measures, enforced silence in a person’s life and an individual’s education is shown throughout the relevant research to be a benefit.”Dozens of schools across Britain already introduce periods of “reflective silence” into the timetable.Kevin Hogston, head of Sheringdale Primary, south London, has just introduced a minute’s silence at the start of twice-weekly meetings in which children are taught breathing techniques and encouraged to reflect. The school plans to introduce it into classrooms every day.32. According to Dr. Helen Lees, “enforced silence” _____________.A. is an effective way of punishmentB. does not make much sense in classC. can improve pupils’ confidenceD. can make pupils more creative33. The underlined word, “suppress”, in the second paragraph probably means “_________”.A. prevent something from developingB. make something better than beforeC. get something backD. unite with something.34. What can be inferred from the research on school settings?A. Students are more creative if taught in noisy classrooms.B. Silence makes a great difference to pupils.C. Clutter on the walls can help students concentrate.D. Most schools are not satisfactory in terms of classroom temperatures.35. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to arrange classroom settings.B. How to achieve silence in class.C. Encouraging pupils in class is beneficial.D. Keeping quiet in class can improve academic ability.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
