得夺市安庆阳光实验学校新课标高二英语暑假作业8（满分100分）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共4小题；每小题5分，满分20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。
Amsterdam is a city like Venice founded on and around water or waterways. However, unlike Venice, Holland's largest city isn't only a museum. Amsterdam is a real, living and large city.The Dutch capital has clearly come a long way since it was founded. A story goes that two fishermen and a seasick dog first came there. The dog jumped ship to pour out the con- tents of his stomach and the two fishermen became the founders of Amsterdam. The reality of its founding might have something to do with the River Amstel which was built in the 13th century. Settlement developed slowly there and it took its name.Amsterdam is built on numberless canals, which neatly divide the city into easily navigable(可航行的) districts. There seems to be a canal around every corner in Amsterdam. This is not too surprising when you consider that the city is home to 165 canals, which are more than Venice.During the summer, people come together in Vondel park, where locals and tourists alike relax in the. fine weather. Amsterdam might be one of Europe's wettest capitals, but as soon as the clouds are clear and the sun shines, its citizens go out into the streets to sit in cafes, go boating on a canal, or even ride bicycles; the number of bikes in the city is more than double that of the city's population.Amsterdam's winters tend to be cold with plenty of rain, but this seldom seems to stop the tourists from gathering together in the city. Particularly cold winters also offer a good chance for visitors to watch the local people skating across the frozen canals. These days, with plenty of rail, bus and air connections to all over Europe, the Dutch capital is a year-round tourist destination as well as one of the world's key business centers.1. We can conclude from the passage that Amsterdam isA. as big as VeniceB. similar to Venice in certain aspectsC. the largest city in EuropeD. a big inland city2. What can we learn about Amsterdam from Paragraph 2?A. The city has a short history.B. The two fishermen gave the city the name.C. The city got its name from the River Amstel.D. The city was named after the seasick dog.3. In winter the tourists in Amsterdam may be advised to ______.A. relax in Vondel parkB. go boating on canalsC. drink in cafesD. watch people skating4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Amsterdam and Venice have a similar number of canals.B. On average each person in Amsterdam has more than two bicycles.C. It seldom rains in Amsterdam in winter because it is very cold.D. Tourists can go to Amsterdam only by ship now.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

英语知识点安徽省六安市高二英语暑假作业16 Word版含答案-总结
第十六天一、美文晨读“Don’t get your teeth veneered,” Elmer’s girlfriend said. “I know a girl who did that, and she has had bad breath ever since.”Elmer had never heard of such a thing. “That’s ridiculous,” he said. “Veneers are made of plastic. Plastic doesn’t give you bad breath.”Hannah asked him if he had ever used a public phone right after some stranger had talked on it. “The plastic phone stinks from their breath,” she said. “Why do you always have to argue with me?” He told her that he didn’t ar gue with her—she was the one who always argued with him.Elmer saw his dentist a week later. He asked if veneers could cause bad breath. The dentist told him that it was possible, because plastic can retain odor. He said a more common cause of bad breath from dental work was fillings. Several patients had come to him because they thought they had gotten bad breath from new fillings. He replaced the fillings with different material, and their bad breath went away.“Well, should I get veneers for my two front teeth?” Elmer asked. “I used to have tiny chips in each tooth. Now, those chips are bigger.” His dentist told him that applying veneers would require destroying too much enamel, which the two teeth were already deficient in. “I bet you used to suck on lemons,” he said. Elmer nodded.His dentist suggested grinding down the chipped areas a little bit so that their edges wouldn’t be so jagged. The grinding, accompanied by a burning odor, took only a couple of minutes. When Elmer ran his tongue over his “new” teeth, they felt nice and smooth. So he decided that the $100 dentist bill was probably worth it. More importantly, he wouldn’t have to worry about losing his girlfriend because of a couple of veneers.二、词汇训练1. We offer free t________ support for those buying our software.2.

When a man takes a woman out for a dinner, it is considered impolite to help her with her chair when she gets up or sits down. On a crowding train or bus, it is proper for a man offer a woman his seat, particular if she is old or carries a baby. Even when it comes to shake hands, ladies come first. It is impolite for a man to extend his hand for a handshake upon first greeting. Unless a woman does not extend her hand to the man first, the man shouldn’t offer theirs.三、阅读理解7、任务型阅读Can a lie-in make you healthier?Every morning, my alarm goes off, I wake from my slumber and hit the snooze button. Then I crawl back under the duvet to grab a few more minutes of shut-eye. “Tonight I’ll go to bed early,” I tell myself. But, evening comes and I get a second wind, completely forgetting about my early night.Why am I finding it so difficult to get a good night’s sleep? And is it a problem?The amount we sleep has declined over the years and insomnia is on the rise. Modern technology is often blamed. The light from our smartphone affects levels of melatonin –thesleep-inducing hormone - keeping us wide awake into the early hours.Lack of sleep can badly affect our health and memory. We need deep sleep to move our memories from short-term storage into long-term storage. If we don’t get enoug h sleep, we could lose these memories. This is especially disastrous for people studying for exams.So, how can we learn to sleep better? For Professor Till Roenneberg, it's important people recognise they have an internal body clock. This determines whether you are a night owl, an early bird or somewhere in the middle. We don’t have any choice.“It’s like feet,” he said “Some people are born with big feet and some with small feet, but most people are somewhere in the middle.”Our work schedules are out of sync with our natural sleep patterns. He says this leads to “social jetlag” where people feel like they are constantly in the wrong time zone.Paul Kelley – a sleep expert from the University of Oxford – says that most people are getting up too early. He believes work and school should start a few hours later. Many companies are starting to realise more sleep can mean a more productive workforce and are changing work schedules. While in South Korea, office workers are heading to relaxation parlours at lunchtime to take power naps in hammocks or massage chairs. This is much healthier than catching forty winks while sitting on the toilet or dropping off at their desks.So, if like me you find yourself hitting your snooze button every morning – don't feel bad. It’s just our body clocks!阅读前：请联系上下文或查阅字典将文章黑体字翻译成中文。

In one classie experiment, people were showna vertical line and asked to find a line of identicallength from a selection of three.You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, andwhen people perform it by themselvesthey do it very well. However, psychologists havediscovered that we are very easily swayed by the opinions ofother people when we do this task in a group. In one study, agroup of three peoplewas set up,where two of the people were confederates(同伙)of the experimenter.When the confederates deliberately g ave wrong answers,people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also. In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every oasion.But why do people conform in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people donot want to step out of line with the prevailing opinionof the group.

安徽省舒城中学高二英语暑假作业(16)
第十六天一、美文阅读Once a circle missed a wedge(楔). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly, it admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. It was so happy. Now it could be whole, with nothing missing. It incorporated(组合)the missing piece into itself and began to roll. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice the flowers of talking to the worms. When it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.The lesson of the story, I suggested, was that in some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything is in some ways a poor m an. He will never know what if feels like to yearn(渴望), to hope, to nourish(滋养)his soul with the dream of something better. There is wholeness about the person who has come to terms with his limitations, who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and not feel like a failure for doing so.二、词汇训练1.

Recent development has made possible machines that print, cook, and serve foods on a mass scale. And the industry isn't stopping there.Food productionWith a 3D printer, a cook can print complicated(复杂的) chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake. Not everybody can do that—it takes years of experience, but a printer makes it easy.A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to “re-create forms and pieces”of food that are “exactly the same”，freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In another restaurant, all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed, ratherthan farm to table.NutritionFuture 3D food printers could make processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University, said, “F ood printing could allow consumers to print food to meet their own nutritional needs, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterday's bread from the supermarket, you'd eat something baked just for you on demand.”ChallengesDespite recent advancements in 3D food printing, the industry has many challenges to overcome. Currently, most ingredients must be changed to a paste(糊状物) before a printer can use them, and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D food printers now are restricted to dry ingredients, because meat and milk products may easily go bad. Some experts are skeptical about 3D food printers, believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-end restaurants.()31. What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?A. It helps cooks to create new dishes.B. It makes the dishes more delicious.C. It saves time and effort in cooking.D. It contributes to restaurant decorations.()32. According to Paragraph 3, 3D-printed food ________．A. is more available to customersB. can keep all the nutrition in raw materialsC. is more tasty than food in supermarketsD. can meet individual nutritional needsBMany of us love July because it's the month when nature's berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels from British Columbia's fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc(not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries(樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a__juicer,__you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve”creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children's party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.()33. Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?A. To make them smell better.B. To keep their colour.C. To speed up their ripening.D. To improve their nutrition.()34. What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?A. A dessert.B. A drink.C. A container.D. A machine.()35. From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B. A health magazine.C. A research paper.D. A travel brochure.CThere has long been a notion(观念) that money buys happiness. However, although “we really, really tried that for a couple of generations, it didn't work，”said Francine Jay, author of The Joy of Less, A Minimalist Living Guide: How to Declutter, Organize, and Simplify Your Life.Thanks to a travel-inspired revelation(启发), Jay has been happily living a simpler life for 12 years. “I always packed as lightly as possible, and found it exciting to get by with just a small carry-on bag，”she told CNN. “I thought if it feels this great to travel lightly, how amazing would it be to live this way? I wanted to have that same feeling of freedom in my everyday life.”Jay decided to get rid of all her excess(额外的) possessions and live with just the essentials(必需品). “I wanted to spend my time and energy on experiences, rather than things.”Jay is a follower of a movement called “minimalism(极简主义)”. Growing numbers of people have been attracted to this lifestyle all over the world. They share the same feeling of disappointment with modern life and a desire to live more simply. Minimalists are typically progressive and concerned about the environment, Leah Watkins, a lead researcher at Otago University in New Zealand, told Stuff magazine in March.But many simply experienced unhappiness caused by owning too many possessions. Depression with the materialism of our world isn't new. English romantic poet William Wordsworth summed up how dispiriting(令人消沉的) this was back in 1802, at the beginning of the industrial age, when he wrote, “Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers.” His preference was to go back to nature. Closer to ou r own times, the hippies(嬉皮士) of the 1960s also sought to “drop out” of modern life.And for many minimalists, their key is to unload. Without objects, they “believe people are forced more and more into the present moment and that's where life happens，”wrote Stuff.But does simplicity ever feel like a sacrifice(牺牲)?“It's eliminating the excess—unused items, unnecessary purchases—from your life. Well, I may have fewer possessions, but I have more space …Minimalism is making room for what matters most，”said Jay.And “the real questions”，according to Duane Elgin, US social scientist, are “What do you care about？”and “What do you value？”He told CNN, “It's important for people to realize minimalism isn't simply the amount of stuff we consume. It's about our families, our work, our connection with the larger world, our spiritual dimension. It's about how we touch the whole world. It's a way of life.”()36. What was the author's main purpose in writing the text?A. To explore the trend of minimalism.B. To give tips on how to lead a happy life.C. To argue whether money buys happiness.D. To recommend one of Francine Jay's books.()37. What inspired Francine Jay to live a simple life?A. A book she came across.B. Her desire to keep up with modern life.C. The pleasure she enjoyed from traveling lightly.D. A follower of minimalism she met on a trip.()38. According to Leah Watkins, a typical minimalist tends to ________．a. be fed up with materialismb. like saving and visiting nature oftenc. be angry about his or her current lifed. be environmentally friendly and live with fewer thingsA. a, bB. a, dC. a, b, cD. b, c, d()39. The underlined word “eliminating” in Paragraph 8 probably means “________”．A. removingB. distinguishingC. acceptingD. improvingDMy timing has always been a little off with Elizabeth Strout. I've read and pretty much admired everything she's written, but, for whatever reason, the books of hers I've picked to review have been the good ones, like Amy and Isabelle and The Burgess Boys, rather than the extraordinary ones, like Olive Kitteridge, which won the 2009 Pulitzer Prize. Anything Is Possible is Strout's latest book and it's gorgeous. Like Olive Kitteridge, Anything Is Possible reads like a novel constructed out of linked stories. In fact, it's hard to know exactly what to call this—a novel or a short story collection. In any case, these stories are animated(栩栩如生) by Strout's signature themes: class humiliation, loneliness, spiritual and, sometimes, reawakening. When Strout is really on her game, as she is here, you feel like you've been carefully lowered into the unquiet depths of quiet lives.Strout began working on Anything Is Possible at the same time she was writing her novel My Name Is Lucy Barton, which was published last year. Lucy, a dirt-poor child who grows up to become a celebrated writer, floats in and out of these interlocking stories. Some characters catch a glimpse of her being interviewed on TV; one travels to see her at a bookstore. An old er Lucy even appears “in the flesh” in one story when she returns home to the small town in rural Illinois where most of these tales are set to visit her troubled brother; but Anything Is Possible also stands on its own. Indeed, a few of the characters here would be ticked off if they thought their stories depended in any way on that Barton girl. Strout's writerly eye works like a 360 degree camera, so that a character or place that's on the margins of one tale takes center stage in a later one. This technique sounds contrived, but Strout carries it off lightly.__①__ One of the most powerful stories here is called “Dottie's Bed & Breakfast”，which is an establishment we readers glimpse earlier in the book. Dottie desires to be middle-class and she harbors a grudge(怨恨) against life because she's had to rent out rooms to make a living. Dottie also possesses a sensitive nose for sniffing out the lower-class origins of some of her guests.__②__ “Shoes always gave you away，”comments a woman in a story called “Cracked” about a houseguest's too-high cork wedges(坡跟鞋). And, in the final story here, called “Gift”，a once-poor man made good says, “The sense of apology did not go away, it was a tiring thing to carry.”__③__ But, back to Dottie. When an elderly doctor and his wife come to stay at her guesthouse, Dottie bonds over tea with the wife, Shelley, who shares a story about a long-ago social humiliation.__④__ At breakfast the next morning, however, Shelley obviously regrets that confidence and becomes the Doctor's wife again. She freezes Dottie out and puts her back in her place as the inn-keep.There's comic satisfaction in seeing Dottie secretly spitting into the breakfast jam, but the more profound rewards of this story have to do with its recognition of the many varieties of human insecurity—or, as Lucy Barton herself more bluntly puts it, the many ways “people are always looking to feel superior to someone else”．Other stories have to do with sexual shame, or with the tragic ways close neighbors or family members misread each other; but I'm making Anything Is Possible sound too grim when, in fact, so many of these stories end in an understated(低调的) gesture of forgiveness. Strout is in that special company of writers like Richard Ford, Stewart O' Nan and Richard Russo, who write simply about ordinary lives and, in so doing, make us readers see the beauty of both their worn and rough surfaces and what lies beneath.()40. The author of the article may have reviewed these books EXCEPT________．A. Amy and IsabelleB. The Burgess BoysC. Anything Is PossibleD. Olive Kitteridge()41. What can be inferred according to the second paragraph?A. The book Anything Is Possible depends wholly on that Barton girl.B. The character Lucy floats in and out of these disconnected stories.C. An ordinary character in one story can be a leading role in another.D. Elizabeth Strout isn't skillful at describing small characters in life.()42. Shelley freezes Dottie out the next morning because ________．A. she feels she is superior to DottieB. Dottie spits into the breakfast jamC. Dottie desires to be middle-classD. she regrets the confidence in Dottie()43. The sentence “Indeed almost all of Strout's characters have sharp eyes and even sharper observations to make when it comes to that great American subject: class.” should be put in ________.A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④()44. The tone of the article can be described as ________．A. depressingB. criticalC. appreciativeD. indifferent()45. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Anything Is Possible—unquietness depths of ordinary livesB. Elizabeth Strout—an outstanding Pulitzer Prize WinnerC. Anything Is Possible—a collection of grim short storiesD. Elizabeth Strout—a writer with clever writing techniques四、任务型阅读Time management refers to managing time effectively so that the right time is allocated to the right activity. Time management is essential in every field of life because time is the precious resource one needs to accomplish a task. Every single moment that passes once will never come back again. Time management helps you do your task in time and use your time more productively. It helps you to identify the useless activities which can be avoided and how time can be saved. It helps you allocate proper time for a task and perform the task more efficiently.A student's daily routine is filled with a lot of activities. Some are related to his studies, some are essential for his life and some are for entertainment or physical fitness. Still some activities have no use and just waste time. Similarly if the number of the activities for entertainment exceeds what is reasonable, they waste the time of a student. These activities include using the Internet for chatting, playing games, watching movies or listening to music for hours on end. Such activities are called “distracters” which distract one from one's real purpose.Games and physical exercise are important for a student because they keep him fit in body and mind but game time should be controlled as it may waste his time.No one wastes time intentionally. Time is always wasted in an insensible way. That's why a student is aware of it until the days of exams come. So it is better to use the present time more effectively than cry over what you've done in the future.As for a student, time management compromises(包括) various steps. It is not only necessary to allocate time for different subjects but also to identify right time for each such subject. What's more, to identify the distracters which become causes of wastage of time is of significance as well.Take a pen and sheet. Write down all the activities you do in your daily routine. Calculate how much time you have for your studies other than other activities. Determine how much time a subject can take out of your total46. ____________47. ____________48. ____________49. ____________50. ____________51. ____________52. ____________53. ____________54. ____________55. ____________五、书面表达请阅读下面短文，然后按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
