得夺市安庆阳光实验学校信丰中学高二上学期周考（一）英语试题第一部分听力（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。
AMy grandmother often said to me, “You can count the number of your true friends on the fingers of one hand.” For a long time I thought this was true. However, I’ve now discovered my grandmother was only half right. Maybe we do only make a few “best” friends in our lifetime, but those aren’t the only people that we can call friends. There are many different types. Let me tell you about a few of them.One type of friends is the type I call the “football mom friend”. My neighbor Sally is a good example. We both have kids who play football in a football club, and someone has to take them to practice and pick them up. Sally and I and two other mothers take turns to do this. We meet sometimes and have tea and talk about what our kids are doing, but those are the only times that we meet each other. I enjoy being with these women, but we don’t do anything else toge ther.Another type is called the “hobby friend”. That’s the person you share an interest or a hobby with. Michael and Cater, who are brothers, are a good example of this type. We’re all in a bird watching club. Every few weekends the members of the club go on a trip to watch different kinds of birds. There’s nothing romantic about my relationship with Michael and Cater, of course. We just share interest in birds.Then there’s the “other half of the couple” type of friends. Jim is married to Rose, a friend t hat I’ve known since college. When Rose married Jim, I realized that I would have to be Jim’s friend if I want to continue to be Rose’s. Jim and I don’t share so many interests, but we do have a friendly relationship.21. What does the first paragraph tell us about?A.We need true friends in our lifetime.B.We have few best friends in our lifetime.C.We should make new friends.D.We must be friendly to all our friends.22. How many types of friends are mentioned in the passage?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 523. Which of the following statements is RIGHT?A.Finally the writer agrees with her grandmother.B.Michael and Cater both fall in love with the writer.C.The writer herself sometimes takes her kid to the football club.D.Sally and the writer are close friends.BWanted, Someone for a KissWe're looking for producers to join us on the sound of London Kiss 100 FM.

Winfrey will also film an episode (集) of her show at the Sydney “Oprah” House.The Australian government said it was spending AUS $(澳元) 3 million to help bring The Oprah Winfrey Show to the country as a way to improve tourism.Tourism Minister Martin Ferguson insisted it was money well-spent as it would put Australia in the spotlight，with the popular TV show watched by 40 million Americans and screened in 145 countries. “Oprah is a famous name and she has the power to lift A ustralia’s profile(形象) as an important tourist country，” he said in a statement.Winfrey made the announcement during the first episode of her 25th and final series on Monday. After telling the audience with a suggestion that she might take them on a trip to New York，Philadelphia or Los Angeles，she said her last season provided something “bigger”.“I started to think about where I would most want to go. Maybe I should take all of you with me to the other side of the world. We’re going to Australia！”she said.Several episodes will be filmed during the trip，which Winfrey said had been almost a year in the planning and would take in beaches，Sydney Harbour and the Great Barrier Reef . It marks the first time that the show will be filmed with its US audience outside North America. The Australian trip follows a similar act in 2004 when Winfrey gave a car to each member of her audience.28. What ’s the Australian government’s aim of inviting Oprah Winfrey?A. To spread Australia’s culture.B. To develop Australia’s tourism.C. To introduce Oprah Winfrey’s show to the country.D. To improve the relations between the two countries29. Which word can best describe Martin Ferguson’s attitude towards Oprah Winfrey’s Australian trip?A. Worried.B. Doubtful.C. Proud.D. Confident.30. What’s special about Oprah Winfrey ‘s Australian trip?A. The biggest number of audience will take part in the show..B. The audience will get presents from Oprah Winfrey for the first time.C. Oprah Winfrey will make a program in a foreign country for the first time.D. Oprah Winfrey will host her show abroad with her US audience for the first time.31. How would the audience probably feel when they heard Oprah Winfrey’s plan?A. Excited.B. MovedC. PuzzledD. DisappointedDThe question of whether or not we are alone in the galaxy(银河系) is one that has interested everyone. From Superman to ET, films have brought aliens to Earth as friends or enemies but, as yet, none has proved they have ever seen an alien apart from on film or TV.In 1960, a radio telescope(电波望远镜) was pointed out into space to listen for signs of aliens, trying to add scientific fact to the question "Is anybody out there?" But 50 years on, nobody knows the answer to it."It's probably the most important question ," says Dr. Frank Drake, who was a pioneer of radioastronomy. "What does it mean to be a human being? What is our future? Are there other creatures like us? What have they become? What can evolution（进化） produce? How far can it go? It will all come out of learning of aliens and this will certainly enrich our lives like nothing else could.""We should be prepared" for aliens, says professor of space science John Zarnecki, from the Open University. Stephen Hawking says aliens almost certainly exist and senior astronomer Seth Shostak has said that the hunt for alien life should take into account alien "sentient（有感表的） machines", almost paying no attention to the possibility that there's nothing to search for.But if there are aliens then the question is why haven’t we got any firm evidence of their existence? This was a question asked by the physicist Enrico Fermi as far back as 1950, saying “ where is everybody?”But Dr. Drake has a more simple answer to why life hasn’t been found: “ We just haven’t tried enough,” he says. “We’ve looked carefully at only a few thousand stars and very few channels and that’s hardly even a start. There may be around 10,000 civilizations we can discover in the galaxy. That’s one in 10,000,000 stars. Before we have a good chance of succeeding, we still have a long way to go.”32. The stories of Superman and ET are based on ________.A. real eventsB. artists’ imaginationC. personal experiencesD. scientists’ discoveries33. Who doesn’t believe the existence o f aliens?A. Enrico Fermi.B. Dr. Frank DrakeC. John Zarnecki.D. Stephen Hawking34. According to Dr. Frank Drake, we haven’t found aliensbecause________.A. they are too far away from usB. we haven’t made enough effortsC. they have n ever been to the earthD. our science isn’t developed enough35. What can be inferred from the text?A. Aliens have been seen by some people.B. Aliens often appear in the films as enemies.C. It remains a mystery whether there are aliens.D. Scientists have studied millions of stars to search for aliens.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。

passage below,fill in each blank with the proper forms of the given words to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.Sports shoes that work out(16) _______their owner has enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.The shoes—named Square Eyes—contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day.A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver(17) _______ (connect)to a television,and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves,based on the day’s efforts.The design was inspired by a desire to fight(18) _______the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers,says Gillian Swan,(19) _______developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University to London,UK.“We looked at current issues and childhood3overweight really stood out,”she says.“And I wanted to tackle that with my design.”(20) _______a child has

to cheat.“It is possible,but it would be a lot of effort,”she says.“That was one of mymain design considerations.”Section BDirections:Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only beused once.Note that there is one word more than you need.anizationsB.physicallyC.adaptedD.motivatedE.potentialF.issuedG.individualsH.criticalI.participantsJ.typicallyK.involvedYouth sport has the(27) _______to accomplish three important objectives in children’s development.First,sport programs can provide youth with opportunities to be(28) _______active,which can lead to improved physical health.Second,youth sport programs have long been considered important to youth’s psychosocial development,providing opportunities to learn important life skills such as cooperation,discipline,leadership,and self-control.Third,youth sport programs are(29) _______for the learning of motor skills(运动技能);these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars and recreational adult sport(30) _______.When coachers develop activities for youth practices and when sport(31) _______design youth-sport programs,they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.Research from Telama(2006)states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth(ages nine to eighteen)increases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females.Côté(2002)defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment.These activities are4regulated by flexible rules(32) _______from standardized sport rules and are set up by the children or by an involved adult.Children(33) _______change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level.For example,children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment(e.g.in the street.on a playing field or in someone’s backyard).When(34) _______in deliberate play activities,children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior(whether they win or lose)than with the behavior(having fun).On the other hand,Ericsson(1993)suggests that the most effective learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice.Deliberate practice activities require effort,produce no immediate rewards,and are(35) _______by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment.When individuals are involved in deliberate play,they experiment with different combinations of behaviors,but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance.In contrast,when(36) _______are involved in deliberate practice,they exhibit behavior.focused on improving performance by the most effective means available.For example,the backhand skill in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations.However,players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable. Although the drills used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be the most relevant to improving performance.Section BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The2012London Olympics had enough problems to worry about.But one more has just been added-a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun,scientists have detected the signs of a fresh cycle of sunspots that could peak in2012,just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw5billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth,causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and Internet links sending five Olympic broadcast from London."The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth.The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites,"said Professor Richard Harrison,head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle,violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections(日冕物质抛射)occur in the Sun's atmosphere,throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter."A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometers per hour.Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount,can disable satellites,cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications,"Professor Harrison added.The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America,NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory(SDO),which will take images of the Sun that are10times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares(太阳耀斑)and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away,the lab's director,said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth "If we have advance warning,we'll be able to reduce the damage.What you don't want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what's caused the problem,"he said.37.The phrase"communications blackout"in Paragraph1most probably refers to________during the2012Olympics.A.the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB.the collapse of broadcasting systemsC.the transportation breakdown in LondonD.the destruction of weather satellites38.What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?6A.The most fatal matter from the coronal falls onto Earth.B.The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C.It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D.The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.39.According to the passage,NASA will launch a satellite to________.A.take images of the solar systemB.provide early warning of thunderstormsC.keep track of solar activitiesD.improve the communications on Earth40.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Solar Storms:An Invisible KillerB.Solar Storms:Earth Environment in DangerC.Solar Storms:Threatenting the Human RaceD.Solar Storms:Human Activities to Be Troubled(B)Elixirwritten by Eric WaltersTwelve-year-old Roth becomes a friend of Dr.Banting and his assistant,Mr.Best, who are in search of a cure for diabetes(糖尿病).She finds herself torn between her sympathy for the animals being experimented on and her friendship with Banting and Best.George Washington Carverwritten by Elizabeth MacleodMeet the"Peanut specialist",George Washington Carver,the inventor and professor who made over325 products out of peanuts.Through his agricultural research,he also greatly improved the lives of countless black farmers in the southern Unite States.

At least until spring arrived,by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed,don’t worry:I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today.Every year since1818,the people of Zurich, Switzerland,celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman.On the third Monday of April,the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds.The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a40-foot pile of firewood.After the bells of the Church of St.Peter have rung six times,representing the passing of winter,the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes,winter is considered officially over--the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.45.According to the passage,why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A.People thought of snow as holy art supplies.9B.People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C.Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D.Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.46.“The heyday of the snowman”(paragraph4)means the time when______.A.snowmen were made mainly by artistsB.snowmen enjoyed great popularityC.snowmen were politically criticizedD.snowmen caused damaging floods47.In Zurich,the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes_______.A.the start of the paradeB.the coming of a longer summerC.the passing of the winterD.the success of tradesmen48.What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A.They were appreciated in historyB.They have lost their valueC.They were related to moviesD.They vary in shape and sizeV.Translation(15%)49.去年以来，这种商品的价格保持不变。

Each word can only be used once.warning on all energy drink cans and bottles, warning parents of the risk of allowing children to drink them.Researchers say it is difficult to know exactly how much caffeine is contained in each can or bottle of energy drinks, since they are often 34 as dietary supplements(补充物), which allow the manufacturers to avoid FDA regulations.Energy drink manufacturers have compared the amount of caffeine in their products to that in hot drinks sold in coffee houses, but their products are often packaged in very large sizes and they are not sold in 35 environments like coffee houses, which typically would not serve young children. Energy drinks are widely available in 36 stores next to traditional soft drinks, typically packaged in very similar cans and using similar marketing techniques.Some energy drinks in many of the popular lines can contain up to 400 mg of caffeine per can. In comparison, a cup of coffee typically has around 100 mg of caffeine. Caffeine poisoning can occur in adults at levels higher than 400 mg a day; however, children under 12 can 37 caffeine poisoning at only 2.5 mg per 2.2 pounds of body weight.A study published in September 38 up the new findings, revealing energy drinks may cause serious heart problems. French researchers revealed the popular energy drinks may be linked to 39 risk of irregular heartbeats and even sudden death.The FDA is 40 investigating health concerns surrounding the drinks after numerous negative event reports have been made in recent years connecting energy drinks to severe injuries and deaths.【参考答案】31-35G K E A F 36-40 I B J C HSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

Of course they should be(51) corrected when they do wrong, but it’s often better to let children learn their mistakes by themselves (52) . All our parents should do is to trust them, respect them, tolerate them and give them chances to try and fail. They must learn to stand(53) . When criticisms are really needed, they should be(54) with praises,【参考答案】41-45 CBDDA 46-50 BCABC 51-55 ABADDSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AIn 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth. In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns. These numbers are alarming, because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates, which could lead to extinction for these ecologically important creatures in their environment. Indeed, some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.If you are reading this, you may already be aware of these facts. But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(非法交易) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species, such as tigers, tortoises, sea turtles-and the world's most trafficked mammal(哺乳动物) —pangolins.Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in tough scales(鳞), which makes them look very strong. But actually they are endangered mammals. There are eight different species of pangolins, four in Asia and four in Africa, and all are threatened with extinction. Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live, high demand in East Asia, where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines, is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts. The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking. Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild. It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.In February, the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking, which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife, including pangolins. We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan; building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife; raising awareness to drive down the demand that is fuelling the illegal trade.Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day (March 3) by spreading the plan. Use social media and tell everyone that now is the time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species, big and small, from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.56. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?A. Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.B. Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.C. The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.D. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.57. What can we know about the plan released by the US?A. Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.B. Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.C. The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife.D. More and more people are advised to increase their needs of pangolins.58. What is the author's intention of writing the passage?A. To inform us something about World Wildlife Day.B. To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.C. To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.D. To show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.【参考答案】56-58 D C BBWake up late, have a big breakfast and then wander down to the beach for the first swim of the day. A round of golf, a few cocktails and then dinner on one's yacht at sunset.You might think this is how the wealthy envisage the autumn of their lives but in Britain it seems that this is not the case. A new survey shows that almost 60% of wealthy people in the UK don't want to quit working even when they pass the retirement age of 65.The organization Barclays Wealth interviewed 2,000 people, defining 'wealthy' as those with over £1 million (10 million yuan) in assets to invest. It found that more people in the UK are shunning the traditional concept of retirement than in any of the 19 other developed countries surveyed.Not everybody wants to spend the autumn of their lives at leisure.The group even has a nickname; those who never want to be retirees are called "nevertheless" in the survey.And their number is likely to grow over the coming years with 70% of people under the age of 45 in the study indicating that even a golden handshake (丰厚的退休金) will not be enough to make them hang up their boots."Whilst in previous generations there have always been an energetic few with the health and drive (to keep working), many looked to create their wealth early on in life with a view to enjoying it when they retired," said Greg Davies at Barclays Wealth."This report reflects a different attitude, with wealthy individuals wanting to continue to challenge themselves well beyond the traditional retirement age," he added.The survey was reported in many newspapers in Britain and it found its critics. "There's no point in working till you drop," said Iain from Norwich, on the Daily Mail website. "Work to live, not live to work."Sarah Harper, Professor of Gerontology at the University of Oxford, disagrees. She says: "People want to contribute; they want to be doing something. Work gives people status, and at an age when you're incredibly experienced you may want to start a second career or even do something completely different from your previous professional life."The survey raises an interesting question. What is it that really motivates us to work? Is it fear of poverty? Or just fear of boredom?59. We can learn from the survey conducted by Barclays Wealth thatA. less than half of the rich British people desire to enjoy retirement life.B. most of the middle-aged people in Britain can’t afford to retire.C. each of the 2, 000 people interviewed has more than £1 million to invest.D. the UK has the largest number of people in the world that prefer early retirement.60. What does the phrase “hang up their boots” in paragraph 5 probably mean？A. Lead a busy but meaningful lifeB. Step down from their posts.C. Create an enormous amount of wealthD. Develop hobbies in their spare time.61. Which of the following is true according to the passage？A. A commentator said in the Daily Mail that people should work till they die.B. Wealthy people postpone retirement because they want to achieve a greater fame.D.70％of the people under 45 have no intention to go on holidays after retirement.C. The previous generations tried to become rich when they were younger.62. Which of the following might be best title of the passage？A. UK rich don’t want to retireB. A new nickname inventedC. Fear of poverty and boredomD. British people’s changing attitude to life.【参考答案】ABBASection C (8%)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used by only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.housing loan(贷款)due every month, it's difficult for most people to pay for yet another place tostay. (63) Luckily, there is a substitute called house swapping, and it's saving tourists a great deal of cash.(64) For example, if a couple from New York want to spend a week in Paris, they would place an ad offering to trade their New York apartment for one in Paris for a week. If a Parisian couple that want to vacation in New York read the advertisement, houses can be swapped, and both couples save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars by avoiding big-city hotel fees. If all goes well, both couples can post positive reviews of the other's home online so that potential travelers can see that everything was fine. (65) This builds munity of people who want to help each other out.There are other advantages to house swapping as well. Hotels are often located in a part of the city where few people live, making them a strange place to experience a new city. Staying at someone's home puts you in a neighborhood that can give you a better representation of the life and culture in the place you're visiting. (66) The next time you want to spend some time in an exotic locale but don't want to pay a fortune, check what's posted online and find a house to swap.【参考答案】63-66 CDFETranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.67.请对参赛运动员们的表现做个评论。

Not only do the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy school bags.Doctors are starting to worry that younger and younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags being too heavy for them.“It’s hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because it’s so heavy,”said Rick Hammond, an 11-year-old student inthe US.But even with rolling bags, getting up stairs and buses isstill a problem for children. Many of them have hurt theirbacks or necks because of the heavy school bags.But how much is too much? Doctors say students shouldcarry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight.Scott Bautch, a doctor, said children under Grade 4 shouldstay with 10%. But it is also important that older childrendon’t stay with over 15%, because their bodies are stillgrowing. “Children are losing their balance and falling downwith their school b ags,” he said.Parents and teachers are starting to tell children toonly take home library books they will be reading that night.Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin workbooks forstudents to take home.One of the best answers is, as some children said, tohave no homework at all!28.

Most live in Africa, India and China. They use fuels like wood, crop waste, animal waste or coal. These fuels may be the least costly fuels. But they are also a major cause of health problems and death.For more than thirty years, the Aprovecho Research Center has been designing cleaner, low-cost cooking stoves. Dean Still is the director of the group and he points out that every year more than one million and five hundred thousand people die from breathing smoke from solid fuels. “And half of the people use wood for cooking. These are the poorer people, and the richer people use oil and gas. It’s estimated that wood is running out more quickly than oil and gas. And so it’s very important for the poorer people to have very efficient stoves that protect their forests and their health,” he says.In the late nineteen seventies, Aprovecho produced a popular stove called the Lorena. The Lorena was very good at reducing smoke and warming homes. But new tests years later found that it was not very efficient. The Lorena used twice as much wood as an open fire, and took much longer to heat food. Since then, Dean Still says they have experimented with countless other designs.32.
