There are piles of red envelopes on sale, for filling with cash and handing out as gifts. Such festive trappings can be seen everywhere in China in the build-up to the Lunar New Year. But this is Yangon, the former capital of Myanmar, where Han Chinese are a mere 2.5% of the country’s population. They are a sign that Chinese New Year is becoming a global holiday.Several countries in Asia celebrate the Lunar New Year in their own way. But dragon and lion dances in Chinatowns over the world have helped make China’s the most famous. In Tokyo, window cleaners dress up as the animals of the Chinese zodiac(生肖). America, Canada and New Zealand have issued commemorative stamps for the Year of the Bull. Last year New York City made the Lunar New Year a school holiday for the first time.The spread of the Spring Festival, as China calls it, is partly due to recent emigration(移民) from China: 9.5 million Chinese people have moved abroad since 1978, many of whom are far richer than earlier waves of migrants. It also reflects the wealth and ambitions of China’s new middle class: festivities in other countries are partly aimed at the 6 million Chinese who are expected to spend their week long holiday abroad this year.It’s hoped that the festival will promote China’s cultural “soft power” abroad. So related events are welcomed, such as a display this year of martial arts in Cyprus and a traditional Chinese temple-fair in Harare, Zimbabwe. More and more Chinese are glad to see foreigners enjoy such festivities. Though there is a growing enthusiasm among Chinese for Western celebrations such as Christmas, Chinese New Year is a welcome chance to reverse(逆转) the cultural flow.4. The scene in a supermarket shown in the first paragraph is to________ .A. stress the importance of the Spring FestivalB. explain why the Lunar New Year is popularC. present the popularity of Chinese New YearD. show how other countries celebrate the Spring Festival5. What are the best-known celebration activities for the Lunar New Year in Chinatowns?A. Dragon and lion dances.B. Eating dumplings and singing and dancing.C. Dressing up as animals and dancing.D. playing cards and letting off fireworks.6. Some countries celebrate the Spring Festival in order to________ .A. reflect on their own culturesB. show respect to the Chinese traditionsC. promote the values of Chinese customsD. attract Chinese to spend the holiday there7. What’s the best title for the text?A. Celebrating Chinese Festivals Becomes a Trend.B. Welcoming China’s Cultural “Soft Power”C. China’s Biggest Festival Is Going Global.D. Foreigners’ Love of China’s Festivals.三、完形填空Hearing my name called, I stepped up on stage to give my first public speech. Steadying my trembling hands, I 1 the sea of people and wanted to 2 .

In a study published in Pain Reports, a team from Imperial used VR video to reduce people’s sensitivity to ongoing pain and sharp shooting pain.According to the researchers, the findings add to the growing evidence for the potential of VR technology to help patients with long-term pain. Beyond the distracting effect, they think VR may actually cause the body’s own inbuilt pain-fighting systems to start working.Dr Sam Hughes, the first author on the paper, said “Our work suggests that VR may be getting involved in processes in the key parts of our inbuilt pain-fighting systems and are helpful in regulating the spread of increased sensitivity to pain.”To test their theory, researchers applied a cream containing capsaicin (辣椒素)―the chemical that makes your mouth burn―to 15 healthy volunteers. The capsaicin makes the skin more sensitive to painful stimuli (刺激) like a very small electric shock.In the first trial, participants were then asked to rate the pain caused by the capsaicin cream on a scale of 0-100 (from “no pain” to “worst pain possible”) while either watching a VR scene of Arctic exploration through a headset, or looking at a still image of an Arctic scene on a monitor. Under the same conditions, they were also asked to say when a stimulus applied directly to the skin area is considered as painful.The team found that ongoing pain was reduced following VR immersion, and that sensitivity to painful stimuli was also reduced. However, the same effect was not seen in people who looked at still images of the polar environment.They explain that while the findings made at the beginning are encouraging, the study is limited by the small number of healthy participants, without long-term pain. However, the researchers believe VR could hold a bright future to treat patients with long-term pain who have poor inbuilt pain fighting systems.1. How can VR possibly help long-term pain sufferers?A. By making their pain-fighting systems function.B. By drawing their attention to fighting pain.C. By controlling the spread of pain sensitivity.D. By slowing down their brains' reaction to pain.2. Which step comes first in their theory testing?A. Making a capsaicin cream.B. Putting on virtual reality headsets.C．Applying capsaicin cream to the skin.D．Looking at pictures on a computer screen.3. What conclusion can be drawn from the trial?A. Still images helped to ease people's pain.B. VR immersion was the key factor in pain reduction.C. Healthy people were less sensitive to VR than pain sufferers.D. Capsaicin cream brought people more pain than electronic stimulus.4. What does the last paragraph imply?A. The team feels confident about future VR treatment.B. The researchers will work on the side effect of VR.C. VR treatment can be applied in other medical fields.D. The trial only has an effect on short-term pain patients.二、阅读D篇In Australia and other developed countries, consumption (消耗) is viewed as important for economic growth. In recent years, however, concern has grown about the increasing number of people consuming limited resources at a shocking rate. The United States has only about 5 percent of the world’s population, yet consumes about 35 percent of the world’s energy.Impressive packaging and storage such as refrigeration is a luxury (奢侈) that consumers in developed countries take for granted (认为理所当然). In many parts of the world where refrigeration is either unavailable or too expensive, fresh food is bought daily from open-air markets.These markets make little influence on the environment. They do not use energy to store food and because they mostly operate during daylight hours, no electricity is used for lighting. Packaging is mostly unnecessary, and when needed, is often made from biodegradable (可生物降解的) vegetable matter. These markets still exist in many parts of the developed world, but are an alternative (供选择的) form of shopping. Even in developing countries, shops are fast becoming the main places for consumers.Commercial (商业的) packaging is becoming as much a part of consumption in developing countries as it is in developed countries. Plastic bags, drink cans, and hamburger containers are now thrown into rubbish piles along with banana leaves which are a more traditional form of packaging. In most cases, it all ends up at the local garbage disposal plant and is not recycled.Many people are starting to notice the influence of consumerism on the environment. It is affecting not only the earth, but also our health. Some scientists think that the greenhouse effect has increased due to the production, use and disposal of many of the products we use.5. What does the author think of packaging and refrigeration?A. It’s quite necessary.B. It’s a costly process.C. It’s the progress of society.D. It’s different from consumerism.6. What can be known about the open-air markets in developing countries?A. They are not changing.B. They can’t be seen now.C. They are getting less popular.D. They are appearing in more places.7. What are rarely used as packaging according to the author?A. Drink cans.B. Plastic bags.C. Banana leaves.D. Hamburger containers.8. What’s the best title for the text?A. Different Ways of PackagingB. Technology vs. the EnvironmentC. Markets in Developing CountriesD. Consumption vs. Economic Growth三、七选五People have always had to find ways to keep food safe to eat. Methods to dry, smoke and salt food were invented thousands of years ago.9 This storage method keeps food safe to eat for long periods of time. Today, canning is one of the most popular methods of storing food.Clean fruits or vegetables are placed in glass bottles. The food can be put into the bottles either hot or cold. The cold method is used for soft fruits and vegetables that could lose their shape or taste.10 They take up less space in the bottles.After the food has been placed in glass bottles, boiling water is poured into the bottles to about three centimeters below the top.11 The bottles are placed in a large container filled with warm water that is then brought to a boil.The water must completely cover the bottles, from three to five centimeters over the top. When the water boils, any air in the bottles will be expelled. The boiling continues for several minutes. Then the bottles are allowed to cool. Finally, they are placed briefly into cold water.12 In other words, a vacuum (真空)is created.When the bottles are completely cool, notes can be placed on them to identify what is inside. The bottles can then be stored in a cool, dark place at a temperature of between 4℃ and 21℃.13 It is also a good way to store food for six months to a year, or even several years, in case of an emergency. It does not cost much to continue canning every year once the equipment has been purchased.A. The process of canning is much more recent.B. This makes a strong barrier to keep the air out.C. One popular method of canning uses a water bath.D. Firmer fruits and most vegetables are usually cooked.E. Canning uses heat to kill bacteria that cause poisons to form in food.F. Then covers are placed on the bottles, but they are not turned all the way.G. Canning allows your family to enjoy foods that might not come fresh throughout the year.Day 4 【写作训练】一、完成句子1．高中学生非常繁忙，即使有户外体育活动的兴趣也没有时间去参加。
2021年高二寒假作业二英语含答案
I. 完形填空My mother seemed to be able to make dolls out of anything. She made some dolls for me and my two elder sisters. I 1 playing with them, but still, secretly, I hoped for a store-bought 2 like the one our rich cousin had. Her doll 3 open and close its blue glass eyes and even say "Mamma". I 4 stopped admiring it and hoping to have one.However, my dream 5 came true when I was six. One day my father came back from his business trip with three 6 dolls! They were much smaller than our cousin’s doll and their eyes were just painted ones, but I did not 7 such differences. They were 8 "store-bought"dolls. We each chose one and I named 9 Misako.Soon my sisters and I became devoted 10 . Our "children" kept us 11 all day. We gave them a bath, 12 them, brushed their hair, took them out for a walk and put them to bed. Several months later, they got more like real children — their 13 and bodies became dirtier;their dresses got stained; their hair less smooth.But, by then, 14 interests seemed to have moved into 15 toys.Their dolls were abandoned and in bad condition. One had 16 one of her arms, and 17 was one-legged. "You can 18 them if you want," my sisters said to me. Thus, I had 19 dolls. They were more or less handicapped (残疾) and they often looked at me as if they needed me to 20 them. I enjoyed this feeling of being needed — being theonly one in the world who could protect them with a lot of love. Indeed,they made the rest of my childhood days very happy.1.

He was, as he put it, “not very bright” and couldn’t win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who pref erred his “clever” older brother. At age 8, Horowitz was sent away to an abusive boarding school in his native England, even though he screamed and pleaded(恳求) with his parents year after year not to send him. “The thought was, ‘It’ll be good for him,’” he recalled.It was not. Horowitz did badly in his studies, had few friends and was bullied for five years. “My teachers couldn't have had a lower opinion of me,” he said. “I wasn't even smart enough to rebel. The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was this desire to write. When I was 10 years old, I remember asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”Now, at age of 55, Horowitz is one of the world's most successful children's book authors. His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies, and the eighth book featuring the young spy, Crocodile Tears, came out this month.The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14-year-old Alex Rider, anagent for the British intelligence agency M16.Horowitz said he doesn't try to write for kids; it just es out that way. “I have a feeling it's to do with purity and simplicity. I give as little information as is necessary to describe the room, the character in the room, and get on with the action,” he s aid.The style has also made Horowitz a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because, he says, writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grown-ups: In both cases, it's all about entertaining people with a good story.Now, Horowitz couldn't be happier with his life. He sums up his success: “…you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself.I do believe it pletely.”56. In the boarding school, Horowitz’s teachers ________.A. thought little about his abilityB. showed great concern for himC. taught him how to write storiesD. often criticized him57. Which of the following is true of Anthony Horowitz?A. He was the beloved child of his family.B. He benefited a lot from boarding school.C. He emphasizes the plot rather than characters in stories.D. Although he is successful, he isn’t very happy.58. What advice does Horowitz have for readers?A. Interest is the best teacher.B. Hardship teaches valuable lessons.C. Confidence is the key to success.D. Industry is the parent of success.59. In which section can you most probably read the passage?A. Campus TrendsB. Culture & LeisureC. Our WorldD. Science LifeBMini Book Excerpts（节选）BiographyWhen Salinger learned that a car park was to be built on the land, the middle-aged writer was shocked and quickly bought the neighboring area to protect it… The townspeople never forgot the rescue and came to help their most famous neighbor.J. D. Salinger：A Life by Kenneth Slawenski（Random House,$27）Mystery“You’re a smart boy. Benny’s death was no accident, and you’re the only one who saw it happen. Do you think the murderer should get away with it ? ” The boy was staring stubbornly (固执地；倔强地) at his lap again.A thought suddenly occurred to Annika, “Did you …You recognized the man in the car, didn’t you?”The boy hesitated, twisting his fingers, “Maybe,” he said quietly.Red Wolf by Liza Marklund（Atria Books, $25. 99）Short StoriesShe wants to say to him what she has learned, none of it in class: Somewomen are born stupid, and some women are too smart for their own good.

After finishing the book Red Wolf, the readers would learn that ________.A. the murderer got away with the crimeB. Benny died of an accidentC. the boy helped arrest the murdererD. Annika carried out the crimeCI must have been about fourteen then, and I put away the incident from my mind with the easy carelessness of youth. But the words, Carl Walter spoke that day, came back to me years later, and ever since have been of great value to me.Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a day."Do you practice in long stretches, an hour at a time?""I try to.""Well, don't," he exclaimed. "When you grow up, time won't e in long stretches. Practice in minutes, whenever you can find them five or ten before school, after lunch, between household tasks. Spread the practice through the day, and piano-playing will bee a part of your life."When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to write, but class periods, theme-reading, and mittee meetings filled my days and evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper, and my excuse was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the nextweek I conducted an experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundred words or so. To my astonishment, at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript ready for revision, later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal method. Though my teaching schedule had bee heavier than ever, in every day there were idle moments which could be caught and put to use. I even took up piano—playing again, finding that the small intervals of the day provided sufficient time for both writing and piano practice.There is an important trick in this time—using formula: you must get into your work quickly. If you have but five minutes for writing, you can't afford to waste four chewing your pencil. You must make your mental preparations beforehand, and concentrate on your task almost instantly when the time es. Fortunately, rapid concentration is easier than most of us realize.I admit I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of the fiveor ten minutes. But life can be counted on to supply interruptions. Carl Walter has had a tremendous influence on my life. To him I owe the discovery that even very short periods of time add up to all useful hoursI need, if I plunge（投入）in without delay.64. The meaning of “stretch” in the underlined part is the same as that in sentence “________”.A. Bob worked as a government official for a stretch of over twenty years.B. The forests in the north of the province stretch for hundreds of miles.C. My family wasn’t wealthy by any stretch of the imagination.D. During his senior year his earnings far enough to buy an old car.65. We can infer that the writer ________.A. has new books published each year however busy his teaching isB. is always tired of interruptions in life because his teaching scheduleis always heavyC. has formed a bad habit of chewing a pencil while writing his novelsD. can find sufficient time for mental preparations beforehand, so he'sdevoted to work instantly66. What is the best title of this passage?A. Concentrate on Your WorkB. A Little at aTimeC. How I Became a WriterD. Good Advice Is Most ValuableDThe interview is an important event in the job-hunting process, because the 20 or 30 minutes you spend with the interviewer may decide whether or not you get the particular job you want. Therefore, it is important to remember that your purpose during the interview may differ from that of the potential employer. You want to make yourself stand out as a whole person who has personal strengths and should be considered the right person for the job. It is encouraging to know that the interviewer’s task is not to embarrass you, but to hire the right person for the job.Remember, job-hunting is very petitive. Anything you can do to improveyour interview techniques will be to your advantage. The following suggestions may help you land the most important job.Your goal in this interview is to make sure your good points get across. The interviewer won’t know them unless you point them out, so try to do this in a factual and sincere manner.Don’t say anything bad about your former employers. If you have been fired from a job and the interview asks about it, be honest.Show the interviewer that you are interested in the pany by asking questions. Ask about responsibilities, working conditions, promotion opportunities and benefits of the job you are interviewing for.If at some point you decide the interview is not going well, do not let your discouragement show. You have nothing to lose by continuing a showof confidence, and you many have much to gain. It may be real, or it maybe a test to see how you react to adverse conditions.Some interviewers may bring up salary early in the interview. At this time, you may indicate that you are more interested in a job where you can prove yourself than a specific salary. This politely passes the question back to the interviewer. If possible, you should negotiate for salary after you have been offered a job and have pleted the paperwork.67. To get the job you want, during the interview you should ________.A. avoid the interviewer’s questions that are designed to embarrass youB. remember that you are the bestC. make yourself stand out as the right person for the jobD. tell yourself that you want to get the job68. If you did not get along with your former employer, you ________.A. should tell a lie to the interviewerB. should not speak ill of himC. should refer to him in a factual mannerD. should never mention it69. The underlined word “adverse” in the sixth paragraph can be replaced by ________.A. difficultB. friendlyC. oppositeD. different70. The passage is mainly about ________.A. how to make your strengths understoodB. how to show your interest in the jobC. how to be frank and sincereD. how to deal with an interviewIV. 任务型阅读Of the hundreds of self-change techniques that have been suggested over the centuries, perhaps only a dozen are totally different. Researchers have tried to see which ones work best.Three techniques deserve special mention: they’re powerful, simple and easy to learn.What’s more, individuals who have made successful changes in their lives—changes in eating habits, career paths, coping strategies, and so on—often rely on one or more of the three techniques.To get yourself started in a new direction, try the Three M’s:Modify your environmentPeople who have never tried this are astonished by the enormous effect it often has. I’ve known several people who have overe nail-biting simply by buying 50 nail files and distributing them everywhere: in their pockets, their desks and their bedrooms. With a nail file always within reach, they tended to groom rather than bite. To change yourself, change your world.Monitor your behaviorI’ve been reading research studies on self-monitoring for 20 years, and I’ve conducted some myself. The fact is, if you monitor what you do, you’ll probably do better.A study by Canadian researchers showed that teenagers arrived more promptly at a swim practice when they were given an attendance sheet to record their arrival times. Sonya Carr and Rebecca Punzo reported that self-monitoring improves academic performance of emotionally disturbed children in reading, mathematics and spelling. Dozens of studies have similar results, all inspired by heightening our awareness of our behavior.Make mitmentsWhen you mit yourself to another person, you establish a possibility of reinforcement (后效强化)；you’ve automatically arranged for a reward if you stick to it and a punishment if you don’t. It puts some pressure on you, and that’s often just what you need.For instance, if you want to exercise more, arrange to do it with a friend. If you don’t show up, your friend will get angry, and that may be just the ticket to keeping you punctual(准时的). In 1994 Dana Putnam and other researchers showed that patients who made written mitments were far morelikely to take prescribed medicine than patients who hadn’t.There’s good news here for all of us. We can meet many of the demands and overe many of the challenges of life with simple skills that anyone can master an d that don’t require willpower---in other words, with skill, not will.Change your bad habits to goodParagraphoutlineSupporting detailsIntroduction[·Most of self-change techniques that have beensuggested before are ( 71 )________.·People who are ( 72 ) ________in making changes intheir lives often rely on one or more of the Three M’s.Modify your ( 73 ) ________·Those who have never tried this method can( 74 ) ________enormously from it.·Several people have overe nail-biting with a nail file always( 75 ) ________reach.(76)________your behavior ·If you monitor what you do, you are very( 77 )________to do better.·The more you bee( 78 ) ________of what you’re doing, the better you will perform.Make mitments·mitting yourself to someone else will pressure you tocarry it out, which helps reward yourself.·The patients who made written mitmentsprobably( 79 )________medicine as instructed by doctors.Conclusion Anyone can satisfy most of his demands and overe mostof the challenges with simple skills(80 ) ________ thangreat willpower.V. 单词拼写81.

But traditionally, the paintings are created to heal a person during a ceremony. The type of image and ceremony used is determined by the disease which the person is suffering from. The sand painting may contain an image of the Holy People. The tribe medicine man may ask the Holy People to help him paint the image and therefore help heal the person in need. When the medicine man finishes painting, he checks its accuracy. The order and the symmetry(对称性) of the painting symbolize the harmony which a patient wishes to achieve in his or her life. The accuracy of a sand painting is believed to determine its healing effects.In some cases, more than one sand painting might be used in a healing ceremony. During the ceremony, the person who needs healing will sit on the Native American sand painting. The sand painting serves as an entrancefor the spirits and through the painting, the person can absorb the healing energies from these spirits.The sand paintings were not originally meant to be sold or hung on the wall. Once the ceremony is pleted, the sand painting must be destroyed, thus allowing the sand to return to the Earth. This is necessary because the sand painting is now seen as poisonous, having absorbed the illness, and must be destroyed. The entire ceremony, from the painting to the destroying is usually pleted within a 12-hour period. The medicine man never wrote down how to perform the healing ceremony, but it was passed down from generation to generation.The Pueblo tribe was the first tribe to create Native American sand paintings, but the art soon spread to many other tribes. Today, it is the Navajos who are the most active in creating Native American sand paintings.It is believed that it was a medicine man named Fred Stevens who was the first person to create a Native American sand painting for sale in the 1950s. A trader, Rex Bollin, remended Fred to sell sand paintings since they were so beautiful. After working out how to make the sand stick to the canvas(画布), Fred began selling his sand paintings.56. During a healing ceremony, it is necessary for .A. many people to draw togetherB. the sick person to sit on the sand paintingC. the sick person to eat some sandD. the medicine man to use several sand paintings57. Why would people destroy the sand paintings after the healing ceremony?A. Because the paintings are useless after the ceremony.B. Because people don’t know how to keep the paintings for long.C. Because the paintings are believed to contain illnesses.D. Because the paintings are believed to contain the spirit of God.58. From this passage we can infer that .A. different images would be painted to cure different diseasesB. the Pueblo tribe was unwilling to show other tribes how to create sand paintingsC. an ancient medicine man wrote down how to perform the healing ceremony to pass it downD. The Navajos were the creators of Native American sand paintings59. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Fred Stevens is TRUE?A. He earned a lot of money from selling sand paintings.B. He was the world’s most famous sand painting painter.C. He didn’t think sand paintings could cure d iseases.D. He was the first man to sell sand paintings in the world.BA Chinese space capsule carrying three crew members has returned to Earth following a 13-day mission（使命）. Images of the capsule landing in Inner Mongolia at 10:05 local time were shown live on television.The astronauts, including China’s first woman in space, carried out a successful manual docking(手工) with the Tiangong-1 laboratory module. This is a key step towards China’s goal of building a space station by2020. Premier Wen Jia bao praised it as a “plete success”. “This is another outstanding contribution by the Chinese people to humanity’s efforts to explore and use space,” Mr Wen said in Beijing.“It feels so good to stand on Earth, and it feels even better to be home,” astrona ut Liu Wang was quoted（引用）by national broadcaster CCTV as saying. “Tiangong-1, our home in space, was fortable and pleasant. We’re very proud of our nation,” female astronaut Liu Yang said.The crew of the Shenzhou-9 craft successfully carried out the coun try’s manual docking operation earlier in the week. The delicate procedure, which involved bringing together two orbiting objects travelling at thousands of miles an hour, was mastered by USSR and US space teams in the 1960s. The crew also carried out automatic docking of the two crafts in the process.The three astronauts returned to the Shenzhou-9 spacecraft on Thursday and performed a manual separation from the space laboratory. They touched down in Inner Mongolia’s Siziwang county on Friday, with the ca psule equipped with a parachute（降落伞）to slow its approach.Ms Liu, 33, is a major in China’s air force from the central province of Henan. On China’s Tencent QQ messaging service, she goes by the name “little Flying knight”. She was selected into China’s sp ace programme only two years ago, but she did particularly well, the official news agency Xinhua says. The Shenzhou-9 spacecraft was launched on 16 June.60. The final purpose of launching Shenzhou-9 spacecraft is ________.A. to send the first female astronaut in spaceB. to prepare for the foundation of a space stationC. to carry out a manual docking with the Tiangong-1D. to catch up with the first-class technology worldwide61. What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 4?A. To show the great success of the mission.B. To make an introduction of the missionC. To tell readers manual docking operation is a delicate procedure.D. To tell readers the importance of mastering the technology.62. What can be the best title for the text?A. A successful Space TravelB. Tiangong-1, Special Home in SpaceC. Liu Yang, China’s First Woman in SpaceD. China’s Shouzhou-9 Spacecraft Returns to EarthCLaptop puters are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop puter program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million puter program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of thelaptop program is that students will be able to use puters without going to puter labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees，anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in puter technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops bee more powerful, they bee more similar to desktop puters. In addition, the portable puters can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use puters. The laptops will allow all teachers to use puters in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”63. Why is the word “speak” in the second paragraph in quotation marks (引号)?A. They don’t really talk.B. They use the puter language.C. Laptops have speakers.D. None of the above reasons is correct.64. Which of the following is TRUE about Westlake College?A. All teachers use puters.B.1500 students have laptops.C. It is an old college in America.D. Students there can do everything.65. “A window on the world” in the last paragraph means that students can ______.A. attend lectures on information technologyB. travel around the worldC. get information from around the worldD. have free laptops66. What can we infer from the passage?A. The program is successful.B. The program is not workable.C. The program is too expensive.D. We don’t know the result yet.DLittle Robby, our neighbour’s nephew, carefully drew some water into a bowl and started for the door. How I hated this water rationing(定量供应). We were forced to bathe in the deep little pond we shared with Jessie, our cow. Wells were dry, and crops transformed to dust.I watched Robby sitting down onto the steps to my house. Bees buzzed circling his hair, and he buzzed with them. I remembered his aunt’s words: I don’t know what I was thinking when I took him in. The crash killed my sister, and he wasn’t hurt, but he can’t talk. He’s in a world of all his own.Why couldn’t she see the wonderful gifts this boy possessed? He was blessed with a loving nature and a deep admiration for all living things, and I knew he could talk to animals. My heart ached for Robby, who was to stay with us for the summer, and had already been the dearest part of our world, eagerly tending the garden with me and my husband, Tom.On a string around Robby’s neck hung a whistle, in case he was ever lost or in danger. After all, he could not call out for help. But he knew perfectly well that the whistle was not a toy. Blowing on it would bring us both running.I had told him the story of the boy who cried wolf, and I knew he understood me.I sighed as I cleared up the last supper dish. Every ounce of recycled water was saved for a tiny vegetable garden Robby had planted. Tom turned to me. “You know, honey, I’ve been thinking about...”Before he could continue, a scream from the yard made us jump. My God! It’s Robby’s whistle! When we reached him, he was pointing excitedly to the sky. Looking up, we saw the most magnificent sight: Rain Cloud s! “Robby! Quick! We need all the pots and pans!”Robby raced with me to the house. A drop of water fell on my pot and then another. Soon the yard was enveloped in soaking, glorious rain. We all stood with faces held upward to feel the fort of it. Tom picked up Robby and danced about the pots, shouting and whooping, “Rain for Robby!” Tom swung about to show me Robby’s face: he was laughing right out loud, “W-W-Wobby’s!” “Wobby’s … wain … Mom,” giggling, and stretching out one tiny hand in the shape of a cup to catch the rain.I hugged them both, tears of joy mixing with the rain.67. The underlined phrase “the wonderful gifts” in the 3rd paragraph refers to Robby’s ______.A. love for nature and all living thingsB. kindness to help others aroundC. independence since his childhoodD. readiness to accept what happened to him68. It was because ______ that the author and her husband would run on hearing the whistle.A. it was going to rainB. Robby often surprised us with his whistleC. something bad might happen to Robby.D. Robby might find something special69. What can we learn from the passage?A. Robby was old enough, but still couldn’t speak.B. Robby didn’t accept the author and Tom as his parents.C. Robby happened to find the rain cloud and was terrified.D. Robby’s aunt regretted bringing Robby home.70. It can be concluded from the passage that ______.A. we should show mercy for the disabled childrenB. every child has his own talent however young he isC. children from poor families take responsibilities earlierD. children’s sensitive hearts are worthy to be taken care ofIV. 任务型阅读Guiding students through open-ended discussions can help students develop their understanding of the nature of science.One useful practice in classroom discussions involves developing a discussion map. A discussion map is a graphic timeline created by the teacher on which a discussion is recorded---who initially states the idea and who adds to or refuses the idea.Discussion maps let teachers gain a deep understanding of students’ level of participation, the origins of ideas, and the claims that seem meaningful, useful, and/or reasonable to students. They also give the teacher an idea of students’ science thoughts of phenomena and ideas.To make a discussion map, the teacher needs to do a couple of things. First, the teacher needs to keep informed of the ideas that are shared and who shared the idea. The teacher does this as the children talk, making quick notes of the ideas and thoughts. It can be helpful to record the discussion, but it isn’t required. Then, after the discussion is over, the teacher reflectively creates the discussion map to clarify the understanding of the ideas and connections that students were making in their talk.Educators have identified discussions as consistent with reform remendations in that they help children learn about the nature science and are useful in bining literacy and science. It is suggested that discussions can be useful for teachers in evaluating students’ ideas an d building excitement as science. Discussions offer windows on students’ thinking, provide students who struggle in reading and writing with a chance toparticipate more actively in class, and create situations where students can express their ideas differently than in traditional schools tasks.However, I suggest that there are additional reasons for having reasoned discussions in classrooms. First, discussions like this allow students to use their own vocabulary---the words and terms that make sense to them and their classmates---to drive the intellectual and academic work of understand phenomena. Many times learning science can bee focused on learning terms but not necessarily understanding and explaining phenomena. Second, discussions allow students to think about their experiences and the things that they know and try to reconcile these with science ideas. This is challenging, but working together with classmates can help. Finally, reasoned discussions are fundamentally scientific because they offer an open forum that allows all students to be heard, and students’ ideas can be evaluated and connected to their experiences with scientific explanations of those phenomena. For example, during the children’s reasoned discussion about plants, the group came to the agreement that seeds grow into plants. The students understood that most seeds get buried in the ground, the seeds get wet, and then plants grow. This led to a question about whether the seed was still in the ground when the plant had grown into an adult plant. The students came up with several ideas about where the seeds were. During this conversation, the teacher took careful notes so that later investigations could respond to the questions that children were asking. Thus the students were working together using their ideas and understandings and realized something as a group that they didn’tunderstand as individuals.Discussions are consistent with reform remendationsbecause they help children learn about the nature ofscience and (77)______ literacy and science.Discussions can be useful for teachers in evaluatingstudents’ ideas and building excitement at science.Discuss ions offer windows on students’ thinking,V. 单词拼写81.

Upon leaving college，Helen served as a copy girl in an old pany in Washington．In 1943，Ms Thomas joined United Press International and the Washington Press Corps．Thomas served as president of the Women’s National Press Club from 1959 to 1960．In November，Helen began covering then president-elect John F. Kennedy, following him to the White House in January 1961 as a UPI correspondent(通讯员)．She later became White House bureau chief for UPI, where she was employed until her resignation on May 17,xx．Thomas then became a White House correspondent and a columnist．Thomas was the only woman journalist traveling with then President Nixon to China in January,1972．She has traveled around the world several times with Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, and Clinton，during the course of which she covered every Economic Summit．The World Almanac and Book of Fact has cited her as one of the 25 Most Influential Women in America．On March 21, xx, Thomas was called upon directly by President Bush for the first time in three years．Thomas asked Bush about Iraq．Helen Thomas has written four books and she is also a popular speaker at events nationwide．1.What’s the correct order of the events?a．Thomas joined the United Press International and the Washington Press Corps．b．Thomas traveled with President Nixon to China．c．Thomas served as president of the Women’s National Press Club．d．Thomas resigned．e．Thomas was called upon by President Bush．f．Thomas became a White House correspondent and a columnist．A．a, b, c, d, e, f B．a, c, b, d, f, e C．a, c, b, d, e, f D．a, d, e, f, c, b2.Which of the following is NOT true?A．Thomas made speeches about events nationwide．B．Thomas has written four books．C．Thomas covered every Economic Summit when traveling with US presidents．D．Thomas became a correspondent after she graduated from university．3.According to the passage , we can know that _____________.

Needing firewood, I quickly set out with my best friend, Bruce, to look for a tree to cut down. I was glad to have Bruce along. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have a friend who could warn me of dangers.When I chose a big 23-meter-tall tree and prepared to cut it down, my best friend suddenly warned me, “Don’t cut down that tree! It’s too close to the power line!” I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I wanted to finish the job quickly and go home. So I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell, there was no longer any doubt that my friend was right.The tree caught the power line, bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all, ele ctricity can’t travel through wood, so I could safely remove the tree. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree, pain ran up my arm and through my head. I had been shocked!After I returned home and told my mother what had happened, she quickly called the power pany. Workers from the power pany soon arrivedon the scene. One of them asked if I had touched the tree, and when I told him I had, his face turned pale.“You should have been killed,” he said.So why am I still alive? It was my boots that saved my life.Within two hours, the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother.Even though she was glad I wasn’t hurt, my mother was well serious with me. After all, I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.Through this experience, I learned that it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective. Taking the time to listen might actually save a lot of time and trouble. It certainly would have kept me from getting the “shock of my life”.5.The underlined word “disregard ”in the second paragraph means “________”.A．pay no attention to B．take notice ofC．consider D．follow6.

Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A．But for his boots, the writer would have died.B．The writer regretted having brushed off his friend’s warning. C．The writer knew nothing about electricity.D．When the tree was cut down, the writer realized his friend was rightCPrinceton UniversityLocationThe University is in Princeton, New Jersey.

It's about an hour's train ride from Princeton University to the north of New York City.DElectric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.People in California love to talk about "zero-emissions vehicles," but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity es from. Power plants most all use fire to make it. Aside from the few folks who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators. Generators are fueled by something - usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.In other words, those "zero-emissions" cars are likely coal-burning cars. It's just the coal is burned somewhere else so it looksclean. It is not. It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes - "If I can't see it, it's not happening." Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you take that gas （or another fuel） and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat - at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far - so electric cars burn more fuel than gas-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from nukes, or geothermal, or hydro, or solar, or wind, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don't use much of those energy sources.In addition, electric cars' batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When it's a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the waste is in one spot.13. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Electric cars are not actually clean .B. Electric cars are better than gasoline-powered ones.C. People cast doubts on electric cars' batteries.D. Gasoline is an efficient way to power a vehicle.14．The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car run __________.A．not less than 25 miles.B．more than 25 miles.C．not more than 25 miles.D．no less than 25 miles.15．It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A．being green is good and should be encouraged in munications B．electric cars are not clean in that we get electricity mainly by burning something.C．zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment.D．electric cars are now the strong vehicle pared withgasoline-powered cousins.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。

2021年高二寒假作业二英语含答案
2021年⾼⼆寒假作业⼆英语含答案I. 完形填空My mother seemed to be able to make dolls out of anything. She made some dolls for me and my two elder sisters. I 1 playing with them, but still, secretly, I hoped for a store-bought 2 like the one our rich cousin had. Her doll 3 open and close its blue glass eyes and even say "Mamma". I 4 stopped admiring it and hoping to have one.However, my dream 5 came true when I was six. One day my father came back from his business trip with three 6 dolls! They were much smaller than our cousin’s doll and their eyes were just painted ones, but I did not 7 such differences. They were 8 "store-bought"dolls. We each chose one and I named 9 Misako.Soon my sisters and I became devoted 10 . Our "children" kept us 11 all day. We gave them a bath, 12 them, brushed their hair, took them out for a walk and put them to bed. Several months later, they got more like real children — their 13 and bodies became dirtier;their dresses got stained; their hair less smooth.But, by then, 14 interests seemed to have moved into 15 toys.Their dolls were abandoned and in bad condition. One had 16 one of her arms, and 17 was one-legged. "You can 18 them if you want," my sisters said to me. Thus, I had 19 dolls.

He was, as he put it, “not very bright” and couldn’t win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who pr eferred his “clever” older brother. At age 8, Horowitz was sent away to an abusive boarding school in his native England, even though he screamed and pleaded(恳求) with his parents year after year not to send him. “The thought was, ‘It’ll be good for him,’” he recalled.It was not. Horowitz did badly in his studies, had few friends and was bullied for five years. “My teachers couldn't have had a lower opinion of me,” he said. “I wasn't even smart enough to rebel. The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was this desire to write. When I was 10 years old, I remember asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”Now, at age of 55, Horowitz is one of the world's most successful children's book authors. His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies, and the eighth book featuring the young spy, Crocodile Tears, came out this month.The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14-year-old Alex Rider, anagent for the British intelligence agency M16.Horowitz said he doesn't try to write for kids; it just es out that way. “I have a feeling it's to do with purity and simplicity. I give as little information as is necessary to describe the room, the character in the room, and get on with the action,” he said.The style has also made Horowitz a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because, he says, writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grown-ups: In both cases, it's all about entertaining people with a good story.Now, Horowitz couldn't be happier with his life. He sums up his success: “…you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself.I do believe it pletely.”56. In the boarding school, Horowitz’s teachers ________.A. thought little about his abilityB. showed great concern for himC. taught him how to write storiesD. often criticized him57. Which of the following is true of Anthony Horowitz?A. He was the beloved child of his family.B. He benefited a lot from boarding school.C. He emphasizes the plot rather than characters in stories.D. Although he is successful, he isn’t very happy.58. What advice does Horowitz have for readers?A. Interest is the best teacher.B. Hardship teaches valuable lessons.C. Confidence is the key to success.D. Industry is the parent of success.59. In which section can you most probably read the passage?A. Campus TrendsB. Culture & LeisureC. Our WorldD. Science LifeBMini Book Excerpts（节选）BiographyWhen Salinger learned that a car park was to be built on the land, the middle-aged writer was shocked and quickly bought the neighboring area to protect it… The townspeople never forgot the rescue and came to help their most famous neighbor. J. D. Salinger：A Life by Kenneth Slawenski（Random House,$27）Mystery“You’re a smart boy. Benny’s death was no accident, and you’re the only one who saw it happen. Do you think the murderer should get away with it ? ” The boy was staring stubbornly (固执地；倔强地) at his lap again.A thought suddenly occurred to Annika, “Did you …You recognized the man in the car, didn’t you?”The boy hesitated, twisting his fingers, “Maybe,” he said quietly.Red Wolf by Liza Marklund（Atria Books, $25. 99）Short StoriesShe wants to say to him what she has learned, none of it in class: Somewomen are born stupid, and some women are too smart for their own good. Some women are born to give , and some women only know how to take. Some wome n learn who they want to be from their mothers, some who they don’t want to be. Some mothers suffer so their daughters won’t. Some mothers love so their daughters won’t.You Are Free by Danzy Senna（Riverhead Books,$15）HumorDo your kids like to have fun? e to Fun Times!

After finishing the book Red Wolf, the readers would learn that ________.A. the murderer got away with the crimeB. Benny died of an accidentC. the boy helped arrest the murdererD. Annika carried out the crimeCI must have been about fourteen then, and I put away the incident from my mind with the easy carelessness of youth. But the words, Carl Walter spoke that day, came back to me years later, and ever since have been of great value to me.Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a day."Do you practice in long stretches, an hour at a time?""I try to.""Well, don't," he exclaimed. "When you grow up, time won't e in long stretches. Practice in minutes, whenever you can find them five or ten before school, after lunch, between household tasks. Spread the practice through the day, and piano-playing will bee a part of your life."When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to write, but class periods, theme-reading, and mittee meetings filled my days and evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper, and my excuse was that I had no time. Then I remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the nextweek I conducted an experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundred words or so. To my astonishment, at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript ready for revision, later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal method. Though my teaching schedule had bee heavier than ever, in every day there were idle moments which could be caught and put to use. I even took up piano—playing again, finding that the small intervals of the day provided sufficient time for both writing and piano practice.There is an important trick in this time—using formula: you must get into your work quickly. If you have but five minutes forwriting, you can't afford to waste four chewing your pencil. You must make your mental preparations beforehand, and concentrate on your task almost instantly when the time es. Fortunately, rapid concentration is easier than most of us realize.I admit I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of the fiveor ten minutes. But life can be counted on to supply interruptions. Carl Walter has had a tremendous influence on my life. To him I owe the discovery that even very short periods of time add up to all useful hoursI need, if I plunge（投⼊）in without delay.64. The meaning of “stretch” in the underlined part is the same as that in sentence “________”.A. Bob worked as a government official for a stretch of over twenty years.B. The forests in the north of the province stretch for hundreds of miles.C. My family wasn’t wealthy by any stretch of the imagination.D. During his senior year his earnings far enough to buy an old car.65. We can infer that the writer ________.A. has new books published each year however busy his teaching isB. is always tired of interruptions in life because his teaching scheduleis always heavyC. has formed a bad habit of chewing a pencil while writing his novelsD. can find sufficient time for mental preparations beforehand, so he'sdevoted to work instantly66. What is the best title of this passage?A. Concentrate on Your WorkB. A Little at aTimeC. How I Became a WriterD. Good Advice Is Most ValuableDThe interview is an important event in the job-hunting process, because the 20 or 30 minutes you spend with the interviewer may decide whether or not you get the particular job you want. Therefore, it is important to remember that your purpose during the interview may differ from that of the potential employer. You want to make yourself stand out as a whole person who has personal strengths and should be considered the right person for the job. It is encouraging to know that the interviewer’s task is not to embarrass you, but to hire the right person for the job.Remember, job-hunting is very petitive. Anything you can do to improveyour interview techniques will be to your advantage. The following suggestions may help you land the most important job. Your goal in this interview is to make sure your good points get across. The interviewer won’t know them unless you point them out, so try to do this in a factual and sincere manner.Do n’t say anything bad about your former employers. If you have been fired from a job and the interview asks about it, be honest.Show the interviewer that you are interested in the pany by asking questions. Ask about responsibilities, working conditions, promotion opportunities and benefits of the job you are interviewing for.If at some point you decide the interview is not going well, do not let your discouragement show. You have nothing to lose by continuing a showof confidence, and you many have much to gain. It may be real, or it maybe a test to see how you react to adverse conditions.Some interviewers may bring up salary early in the interview. At this time, you may indicate that you are more interested in a job where you can prove yourself than a specific salary. This politely passes the question back to the interviewer. If possible, you should negotiate for salary after you have been offered a job and have pleted the paperwork.67. To get the job you want, during the interview you should ________.A. avoid the interviewer’s questions that are designed to embarrass youB. remember that you are the bestC. make yourself stand out as the right person for the jobD. tell yourself that you want to get the job68. If you did not get along with your former employer, you ________.A. should tell a lie to the interviewerB. should not speak ill of himC. should refer to him in a factual mannerD. should never mention it69. The underlined word “adverse” in the sixth paragra ph can be replaced by ________.A. difficultB. friendlyC. oppositeD. different70. The passage is mainly about ________.A. how to make your strengths understoodB. how to show your interest in the jobC. how to be frank and sincereD. how to deal with an interviewIV. 任务型阅读Of the hundreds of self-change techniques that have been suggested over the centuries, perhaps only a dozen are totally different. Researchers have tried to see which ones work best.Three technique s deserve special mention: they’re powerful, simple and easy to learn.What’s more, individuals who have made successful changes in their lives—changes in eating habits, career paths, coping strategies, and so on—often rely on one or more of the three techniques.To get yourself started in a new direction, try the Three M’s:Modify your environmentPeople who have never tried this are astonished by the enormous effect it often has. I’ve known several people who have overe nail-biting simply by buying 50 nail files and distributing them everywhere: in their pockets, their desks and their bedrooms. With a nail file always within reach, they tended to groom rather than bite. To change yourself, change your world.Monitor your behaviorI’ve been reading researc h studies on self-monitoring for 20 years, and I’ve conducted some myself. The fact is, if youmonitor what you do, you’ll probably do better.A study by Canadian researchers showed that teenagers arrived more promptly at a swim practice when they were given an attendance sheet to record their arrival times. Sonya Carr and Rebecca Punzo reported that self-monitoring improves academic performance of emotionally disturbed children in reading, mathematics and spelling. Dozens of studies have similar results, all inspired by heightening our awareness of our behavior.Make mitmentsWhen you mit yourself to another person, you establish a possibility of reinforcement (后效强化)；you’ve automatically arranged for a reward if you stick to it and a punishment if you don’t. It puts some pressure on you, and that’s often just what you need.For instance, if you want to exercise more, arrange to do it with a friend. If you don’t show up, your friend will get angry, and that may be just the ticket to keeping you punctual(准时的). In 1994 Dana Putnam and other researchers showed that patients who made written mitments were far morelikely to take prescribed medicine than patients who hadn’t.There’s good news here for all of us. We can meet many of the demands and overe many of the challenges of life with simple skills that anyone can master an d that don’t require willpower---in other words, with skill, not will.Change your bad habits to goodParagraphoutlineSupporting detailsIntroduction[·Most of self-change techniques that have beensuggested before are ( 71 )________.·People who are ( 72 ) ________in making changes intheir lives often rely on one or more of the Three M’s.Modify your ( 73 ) ________·Those who have never tried this method can( 74 ) ________enormously from it.·Several people have overe nail-biting with a nail file always( 75 ) ________reach.(76)________your behavior ·If you monitor what you do, you are very( 77 )________to do better.·The more you bee( 78 ) ________of what you’re doing, the better you will perform.Make mitments·mitting yourself to someone else will pressure you tocarry it out, which helps reward yourself.·The patients who made written mitmentsprobably( 79 )________。

People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.”Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits detected in the study include a person’s general age, their gender, ine, political affiliation, and other perso nality traits, including someone's emotional stability.Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone’s shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most monly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.So, what do your shoes say about your personality?Some of the results were expected: People with higher ines most monly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by extroverts（外向性格的人）.However, some of the more specific results are intriguing. For example, “practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more “agreeable” people, while ankle boots were more closely aligned with “aggressive” personalities.The strangest of all may be that those who wore “unfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them, you may suffer from “attachment anxiety,” spending an inordinate amount of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal types w earing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities.56. We learn from the text that shoes one wears may .A. convey useful information including one’s emotional stabilityB. show thick and useful information about one’s personalityC. only convey some information about one’s personalityD. be used to judge others’ personality accurately57. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?A. People wearing “unfortable looking” shoes tend to be calm.B. People wear practical and functional shoes may be hard to deal with.C. Ankle boots are closely aligned with “aggressive” personalities.D. People with high ines probably wear expensive shoes.58. What does the underlined words “attachment anxiety” probably mean?A. Attached happiness to one’s personality.B. Feeling always worried about everything.C. Wasting an inordinate amount of time.D. Often feeling worried about his or her appearance.59. What can be the best title for this article?A. Shoes One WearsB. Shoes and InformationC. Shoes and One’s PersonalityD. Judging One’s PersonalityBWhat do you do when you need to look something up?

And you don’t need any formal training.Of course, there are some controls. Wikipedia has a team of more than 1，500 administrators who check for false information. And main targets for harmful ments(such as politicians) are off-limits to public editing. But with more than l6 million articles to keep an eye on，it isn’t easy．So，while Wikipedia benefits from being constantly updated with information from all over the world, it's also open to “vandals”(破坏他人财产者).Some of the damage is easy to notice. One person drew devil horns and a moustache on Microsoft chairman Bill Gate’s photo, while another edited Greek philosopher Plato’s b iography to say he was a “Hawaiian weather man who is widely believed to have been a student of ‘Barney the purple Dinosaur’ and to have been deeply influenced by his dog，Cutie.”But other things are harder to spot. The most mon form of vandalism involves adding tiny items of false information into the biography of a famous person. Unbelievably, some of this misinformation has appeared in newspapers，with The Daily Mail，The Guardian and The Independent all having fallen victim to the dirty ticks. For example，in an article about British edian Sir Norman Wisdom, one newspaper claimed that he co-wrote Dame Vera Lyn n’s wartime hit “There’ll be Bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover”. He did no such thing. And in another article, it was reported that TV Theme tune poser Ronnie Hazlehurst had written the S Club 7 hit “Reach”Once again, not true.So，if you’re going to use any information from Wikipedia, make sure you double-check it first.60.

In a newspaperB. In a magazineC. In a research paperD. On the InternetDHomeownership has let us down. For generations, Americans believed that owning a home was undoubtedly good. Our political leaders hammered home the point. Franklin Roosevelt held that a country of homeowners wa s “unconquerable.” Homeownership could even save babies, save children, save families and save America. A house with a lawn and a fence wasn’t just a nice place to live in or a risk-free investment; it was a way to shape a nation. No wonder leaders of all political types wanted to spend more than $100 billion a year on subsidies(补助) and tax breaks to encourage people to buy.But the dark side of homeownership is now all too apparent: Indeed, easy lending stimulated （刺激）by the cult of homeownership may have triggered(引起) the financial crisis. Housing remains a drag on the economy. Existing-home sales in April dropped 27% from the previous month, worsening fears of a double-dip. And all that is just the obvious tale of a housing bubble and what happened when it popped. The real story is deeper and darker still.For the better part of a century, politics, industry and culture lined up to create a fetish of the idea of buying a house. Homeownership has done plenty of good over the decades; it has provided stability to tens of millions of families. Yet by idealizing the act of buying a home, we have ignored the downsides. In the bubble years, lending standards slipped dramatically, allowing many Americans to put far too much of their ine into paying for their housing. And we ignored longer-term phenomena too. Homeownership contributed to the hollowing out of cities and kept renters out of the best neighborhoods. It fed America’s overuse of energy and oil. It made it more difficult for those who had lost a job to find another. Perhaps worst of all, it helped us bee casually self-deceiving: By telling ourselves that homeownership was a pathway to wealth and stable munities and better test scores, we avoided dealing with these frightening issues head-on.Now, as the U.S. recovers from the biggest housing bust（破产）since the Great Depression, it is time to rethink how realistic our expectations of homeownership are—and how much money we want to spend chasing them. Many argue that homeownership should not be a goal pursued at all costs.67. Political leaders wanted to spend money encouraging people to buy houses because______.A. owning a home was undoubtedly goodB. homeownership could shape a countryC. houses could save families and AmericaD. homeownership was unconquerable68. The underlined sentence in Para. 2 means ______.A. homeownership has quite a lot of bad effectsB. there might be another housing breakdown in the U.S.C. the existing-home sales will keep decreasing in the U.S.D. the result of homeownership is much worse than it appears69. It can be inferred from Para. 3 that ______.A. Americans choose to live out of urban areasB. it is the way to wealth to have one’s own houseC. it is hard for Americans to get a home loanD. homeownership has made many people out of work70. What is the author’s attitude towards homeownership?A. Cautious.B. Ambiguous.C. Favorable.D. Optimistic.IV. 任务型阅读TelepathyTelepathy（心灵感应）is the ability to municate without the use of the five senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste). It's an instinct (本能) which can be woken up in times of emergency or need. When we feel that something is happening or about to happen by instinct, we're using resources within the unconscious mind. When the resources of two persons' unconscious minds link together into the same frequency, we call it Telepathy.We can either send or receive Telepathy. If you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone, you are probably a good receiver. If you think of a person and he/she calls you, you are most likely to be better at sending.You can easily put your abilities to the test. Think of somebody and expect him or her tocontact with you. Be patient. The other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much e arlier than would normally be expected. Or whenever the phone rings, but try “feeling” who is contacting you. Don't guess, but try to feel it with your mind. However, if neither of these work for you, that doesn't mean that you have no ability of telepathy. As mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency.Telepathy dreams often contain telepathic messages. Two people may both dream of the other and find that their dreams had a clear connection. These people are probably linking to each other's unconscious mind.The more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link up to the other's mind, especially when separated. There are two reasons for this. One is that they understand the other's mind through time spent together; the other is that there is usually a strong desire to municate. A mother will often sense that her child is in danger. This is due to the child's eagerly wanting his or her mother, knowing that this is the person who would always want to be there for them, and the mother's deep desire to protect her child from harm.81.

河北省定州市第2中学2021年高二上学期英语寒假作业4 Word版含答案
高二英语寒假作业4命题人：马增彬审核人：|王红玲训练日期： 2月 4日第|一节阅读理解Experts have put forward detailed plans for a tunnel to connect Taiwan with the Chinese mainland.The shortest proposed route would be 126 kilometers more than twice the length of the English Channel Tunnel. And the longest proposed route would be 207 kilometers.A recent conference in Xiamen, Fujian Province brought together more than 70 experts. The event was co -sponsored (共同赞助) by universities from Taiwan and the Chinese mainland.Fujian is the province where both proposed routes would begin. There is direct passenger access between the mainland and Taiwan by air and sea at the moment. Experts say that it is better to start research sooner rather than later, although there is a lack of government funding(资金). There are no technical problems to build a Taiwan tunnel. But it will require an improved political relationship across the Straits (海峡 ).A professor of Tsinghua University said, "A special feature of huge projects is that the period of preparation is longer than the period of construction." For example, he said, the English Channel Tunnel took 14 years of planning and had been discussed for two centuries. And preparations for the huge Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River began in the 1950s.The Xiamen conference focused on the longest southern route, which would pass Jinmen and Penghu.The first stage of the new project could be a bridge to cross the five kilometers between Xiamen and Jinmen. This would mean that travelling from Xiamen to Jinmen by car would only take five minutes.The longest tunnel now being planned anywhere in the world is the 54 -kilometer land tunnel to link Lyon in France with Turin in Italy. The tunnel will not be completed until 2021 -2021.1. Which is the longest tunnel in the world at present?A. The tunnel between Lyon and Turin.B. The English Channel Tunnel.C. The Taiwan Straits tunnel.D. The passage doesn't mention it.2. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Universities both at home and abroad have sponsored (赞助) the plan.B. If the project is completed, the world's longest tunnel will appear.C. You can reach Taiwan from the mainland directly at present.D. The starting point of the proposed tunnel is in Fujian.3. The example of English Channel Tunnel shows _______.A. it's not easy to complete a huge projectB. there are many problems to be solved before doing somethingC. discussions among countries usually take a lot of timeD. the preparation takes longer time than the construction4. What is the major difficulty in carrying out the plan?A. Improving the relationship between Taiwan and the mainland.B. The lack of money for the project from the government.C. The detailed plans for the tunnel.D. The technical problems with the tunnel.第二节阅读下面材料 ,用不多于3个单词的正确形式填空Scientists are carrying __1_____ experiments into using spiders , cobweb to produce __2____(extreme ) thin wire.
