高二英语周考第1 卷第一部分：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，从每小题所给的四个选项(A. B. C和D) 中，选出最佳选项。
AGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced still swim as well as ever since. A man when he gets back who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star". Remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of over learner , which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but over learnThe multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we over learn in childhood.The law of over learning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination. Though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning. On the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.1. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children arc easy to remember.2. The author explains the law of over leaning by_________.A. presenting research findingsB. selling down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples3. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______.A. a result of over learningB. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with math problemsD. a basic step towards advanced studies4. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Commonly accepted rules.B. The multiplication tables.C. Things easily forgotten.D. School subjects.5. What is the author's opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It's helpful only in a limited way.C. It's possible to result in poor memory.D. It increases students' learning interest.BEating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风）within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物）were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.6. The text mainly discusses the relationship between .A. heart problems and air qualityB. heart problems and exercisingC. heart problems and smokingD. heart problems and fatty food7. The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .A. relatively highB. extremely lowC. relatively lowD. extremely high8. What can we learn from the text?A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B. The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking,D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.9. The autho r’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to .A. informB. persuadeC. describeD. entertainCWhat is the color of the universe? Astronomers did not answer this question until two months ago. This was when two American astronomers reported on their study of all the light in the universe. They said that the universe would appear to the human eye to be a light greenish color, called turquoise(青绿色). Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, reported their findings in January. They presented research at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society. They said that finding the color of the universe was not part of their more serious scientific research. They did it for fun.However, earlier this month, the scientists admitted to making a mistake. They said their finding was much more colorful than it should have been. They now say the light from our universe is closer to white. It is more like a milky or creamy white color.The scientists gave a number to each of the colors of the different star systems. Then they added the numbers together and found the average measurement. The scientists used this average to identify the color of the universe. They said it was a very pretty light green or turquoise color. They called it “cosmic (宇宙的) spectrum (光谱) green.” Many newspapers and television stations reported their finding.Other scientists and color engineers attempted to reproduce the result. Mark Fairchild of the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York was the first person to identify a mistake. He discovered a mistake in the computer software program used by the Johns Hopkins scientists. When the mistake was corrected, the results changed. The new color of the universe is much less colorful. It is very close to white. The scientists apologized for the mistake. They are now working with the Rochester Institute of Technology to produce more images regarding the color of the universe.10. Why did the scientists do the research?A. They wanted to win a Nobel Prize.B. It’s required by the government.C. They did it just for fun.D. It’s part of their research.11. We can infer that the passage was probably written in _______.A. JanuaryB. FebruaryC. MayD. March12. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. None of the researches done by scientists is right.B. Scientists sometimes may make mistakes in their work.C. The color of the universe is light greenish.D. Mark Fairchild apologized for his mistake about the color of universe.DTo err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human.Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular misquotes(戏谑的引语)are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature .To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do .Th e original quote about human nature went like this:” To err is human, to forgive,divine(神圣的).”This saying mirrors an deal people should be forgiving of others’ mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite –find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine．Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company,”the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people. get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论)to that: if good excuse is “good”even if it isn’t honest, then where is the p lace of the truth?13. According to tile passage, which of following seems the most human?A. To search for truth．B. To criticize others for one’s own errorC. To make fun of others’mistakes．D.. To achieve one’s ideal14．According to the author, what is a sign of a man’s maturity?A．Doing things his own way.B．Making as few mistakes as possible．C．Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.D．Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.15. What would be the best title for his passage?A. Truth or ExcuseB. To Blame or to ForgiveC. A Mark of MaturityD. A Mirror of Human Nature第二节( 共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)。

时遁市安宁阳光实验学校实验高中高二年级上学期第一次周练英语试卷第一部分：阅读理解AWhen Frida Kahlo’s paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon (丝带)around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症)at the age of seven. Her spine (脊柱)became bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influence on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.29. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A .a far better artistB. a far more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD .a much more famous person30.The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .A.polioB.her bent spineC. back injuriesD. the operations she had31.Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent sincethe .A.1930sB.1940sC.1950sD.1970s32.What is the author’s attitude toward Kahlo?A. Love.B. Pity.C .Worry. D. Encouragement.BI left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’tthink it was good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as an assistant at a famous publisher(业). I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep and long wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.It takes confidence to make a new start. There’s a dark period, when you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to make it.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.Then I met an agent(代理商)who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback(反馈). I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal—that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.It feels like unbelievable, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract(合同) of the publisher—to be a published writer—is unbelievably rewarding(有回报的).33.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A.I was waiting for good fortune.B.I was trying to find an admirable job.C.I was being aimless about a suitable job.D.I was doing a job for more pay at a time.34.The author decided to write a novel .A.to finish the writing courseB.to realize her own dreamC.to satisfy readers’ wishD.to earn more money35.How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?A.Optimistic.B.Interested.C.Confident.D.Uncertain.36.What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?A.It pays off to stick to one’s goal.B.Hard work can lead to success.C.She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.D.There is no end in sight when starting to do something.CAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids (孩子) to? Try some of these places:·Visit art museums.They offer a variety of activities to excite yo ur kids’ interest.Many offer workshops for making hand-made pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings by children’s favorite writers, and even musical performances and other arts.·Head to a natural history museum.This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur(恐龙) models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky.Also, different kinds of workshops and educational programs are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.·Go to a Youtheater. It offers plays for child and fa mily visitors.Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts.Puppet(木偶)making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.·Try hands-on science. Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country. These science play-lands are great fun for kids and grown-ups. They’ll keep your child mentally and physically active the whole day through while pushing buttons, experimenting, and building.When everyone is tired, enjoy a fun family science show, commonly found in these museums.37.If a child is interested in space, he probably will visit .A.a YoutheaterB.an art museumC.a natural history museumD.a hands-on science museum38.

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.

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。

According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). Butthe new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtimecan get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.25. What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?A. American kids’ sleeping habits.B. Teenagers’sleep-related diseases.C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness.D. Learning problems and lack of sleep.26. How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?A. 7 hours.B. 8 hours.C. 10 hours.D. 18 hours.27. Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.B. They tend to do things that excite them.C. They follow their parents’ examples.D. They don’t need to go to school early.III．七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）How to Do Man-on-the-Street Interviews The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the sport. _____31_____ But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” _____32_____ Hit the streets with confidence. _____33_____ Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested.Don’t get discouraged.●34 Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won’t be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. 35● If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don’t leave work without them.A. Limit your time.B. As you approach people, be polite.C. If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.G. With a question like this, you will get more than a “Yes” or “No” reply.IV．语法填空（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分）Last October , while tending her garden in Mora , Sweden , Lena Pahlsson pulled out a handful of small 56 (carrot) and was about to throw them away.

born in the middle of a long story about the Endangered Species Act.My daughter came along with a pack of gray wolves.Twenty stories later，though，it’s the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best.It was the story about the loss of wilderness—and the story during which my wife Kathy got cancer.That’s the one that made time stand still.I stopped taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤)．Cruelly，it was Thanksgiving.By Christmas，she had become very weak.Some days she was so sick she couldn’t watch TV.Early examination saves time.But ours was not early.By the time you can feelit yourself，it’s often bigger than the doctor wants it to be.Cancer is a thief.It steals time.Our days are already short with worry.Then comes this terrible disease，unfair as storm at harvest time.But

day.I’ve picked up my camera again.I watch the sky，searching for beautiful light.When winter storms come，Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues.After

accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger’s personality simply by looking at the person’s shoes.“Shoes convey useful information about their wearers，〞the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality.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 researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study’s participants.Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes，and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected：People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes，and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people.However，some of the more specific results are strange enough.For example，“practical and functional〞shoes were generally worn by more“pleasant〞people，while ankle bootswere more linked with“aggressive〞personalities.The strangest of all may be that those who wore“uncomfortable looking〞shoes tend to have “calm〞personalities.And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them，you may suffer from“attachment anxiety〞，spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance.There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的)types wearing“shabbier and less expensive〞 shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities，but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.28．What does this text mainly tell us?A．Shoes can hide people’s real personalities.B．Shoes convey false information about the wearer.C．People’s personalities can be judged by their shoes.D．People know little about their personalities.29．The participants were asked to________．A．provide pictures of their shoesB．look at pictures of different shoesC．design a personality questionnaireD．hand in their commonly worn shoes30．Which of the results is beyond people’s expectation?A．Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes.B．Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes.C．Aggressive people are likely to wear ankle boots.D．Flashier shoes are typically worn by outgoing people.31．The author wrote the text in order to________．A．inform us of a new studyB．introduce a research methodC．teach how to choose shoesD．describe different personalitiesDGenetically modified (转基因的〕foods have become a focus point of agriculture throughout the news today. This has an effect on many different aspects of the agriculture world. From the seed dealer,to the farmer that buys the seed，to the workers that the farmer sells to：all are affected by the new technologies that are involved in this part of production agriculture.Genetically modified foods have come under heavy fire lately. There are some countries that are against buying these types of foods. They are being tested for safety by the best scientific experts in Europe, the US and the rest of the world —They are not for sale until they have gone through this complete safety process. Since they are a new product，and any slight problem with them could affect a whole country, these tests are very necessary.These safety tests are carried out because of the new rules that were made with the Novel Foods Regulation. Begun in May of 1997，the Novel Foods Regulation set up an EU-wide pre-market system for all novel foods. A novel food is described as one that has not been eaten by EU consumers widely in the past. By setting up this program the EU hopes to keep its consumers safe from any possible side effects of any new food products.There are a variety of ways in which genetic modification has helped food producers.They can improve the nutritional value or the storage conditions of the food. Today there are only two genetically modified foods that have been allowed for use，these are GM soybean and GM maize.Despite any safety checks, many people are still cautious about eating genetically modified foods. By providing these people with the necessary information, we can allow them to make decisions about these foods.32. What do we know about the novel food?A. It's very popular in EU.B. It's bad for people's health.C. It's a new kind of food.D. Its story has been published.33. Genetically modified foods are allowed to be sold if theyare .A. tested for safetyB. of high qualityC. more nutritionalD. grown in Europe34. From paragraph 2, we can learn that genetically modifiedfoods .A. do no harm to peopleB. have caused some problemC. are well received after being testedD. are criticized and attacked by many people35. What's the writer's attitude towards genetically modified foods?A. We should warn people that they are too dangerous to be eaten.B. We should give people information about them so that they can decide whetherto buy them.C. We should encourage people to eat them because they are more nutritional.D. We should tell people that they are trying to fool the farmers.EMost cars have seat belts as part of their equipment.Seat belts protect drivers and passengers in case of accidents.They also reduce the effect of a crash on the body. 36 Worldwide，the devices have protected up to a million people.America first recognized the invention of an automobile seat belt in 1849.The government gave a patent to an engineer named Edward Claghorn of New York City so that others would not copy his invention of a safety device. 37 This early version of safety belt was said to include hooks and other attachments for securing the person to a fixed object.Other inventors followed with different versions of the seat belt. 38 It resulted from the work of a Swedish engineer，Nils Bohlin.His three－point，lap and shoulder seat belt first appeared on cars in Europe 50 years ago.Nils Bohlin recognized that both the upper and lower body needed to be held securely in place.His invention contained a cloth strap(带子)that was placed across the chest and another strap across the hips. 39Volvo was the first company to offer the modern seat belt to its cars.This company also provided use of Nils Bohlin’s desi gn to other car－makers.40 He received a gold medal from the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences in 1995.He died in Sweden in 2021.A．The Swedish engineer won many honors for his seat belt.B．Claghorn was a promising young engineer with many honors all his life.C．The design joined the straps next to the hip.D．There are many companies adopting Nils Bohlin’s invention of the belt.E．Safety experts say that seat belts save thousands of lives a year in America alone.F．But more than 100 years passed before the current seat belt was developed.G．Claghorn called his invention a safety belt.三、完形填空〔一共20小题，每一小题1.5分，满分是30分〕One day，a professor entered the classroom and asked his students to prepare for a surprise test.They waited anxiously at their desks for the test to begin.The professor 41 the question papers，with the text facing down as usual. 42 he handed them all out，he asked his students to 43 the page and begin.To everyone’s surprise，there were no 44 ，just a black dot in the center of the page.The professor，seeing the expression on everyone’s face，told them the following：“I want you to write what you 45 there.〞The students， 46 ，got started on the inexplicable (费解的) task.At the end of the class，the professor 47 all the answer papers and started reading each one of them aloud in front of all the students.All of them，with no 48 ，described the black dot，trying to explain its position in the middle of the sheet，etc.After all had been 49 ，the classroom was silent，and the professor began to explain：“I’m not going to grade (打分) this.I 50 wanted to give you something to think about.No one wrote about the 51 part of the paper.Everyone focused on the black dot，and the same happens in our 52 ．We have a white paper to observe and 53 ，but we always focus on the dark spots.Our life is a 54 given tous with love and care，and we always have 55 to celebrate：nature renewing itself every day，our friends around us，the job that 56 our livelihood and the miracles we see every day.57 ，we insist on focusing only on the dark spots：the health issues that bother us，the lack of money，the 58 relationship with colleagues，the 59 with a friend，and etc.The dark spots are very 60 compared to everything we have in our lives，but they are the ones that pollute our minds.〞41.A. handed out B. wrapped up C. referred to D. pointed at42.42.

Citizens of prosperous, essentially middle class republics—whether ancient Romans, 17th century Dutch people, or 19th century Americans—have always shown a marked taste for portraiture. Starting in the late eighteenth century, the United States contained increasing numbers of such people, and of the artists who could meet their demands.The earliest American folk art portraits come, not surprisingly, from New England—especially Connecticut and Massachusetts—for this was a wealthy and populous region and the center of a strong craft tradition. Within a few decades after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the population was pushing westward, and portrait painters could be found at work in western New York, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri.Midway through its first century as a nation, the United States' population had increased roughly five times, and eleven new states had been added to the original thirteen. During these years the demand for portraits grew and grew, eventually to be satisfied by the camera. In 1839 the photograph takenby an early photographic process was introduced to America, announcing the age of photography, and within a generation the new invention put an end to the popularity of painted portraits. Once again an original portrait became a luxury(奢侈品)，commissioned by the wealthy and executed(执行)by the professional.But in the time of greatest prosperity of portrait painting—from the late 18th century until the 1850's—anyone with small amount of artistic ability could become a limner，as such a portraitist was called. Local craftspeople—sign, coach, and house painters —began to paint portraits as a profitable sideline(副业)；sometimes as talented man or woman who began by sketching family members gained a local reputation and was besieged(包围)with requests for portraits; artists found it worth their whole to pack their paints, canvases, and brushes and to travel the countryside, often combining house decorating with portrait painting.36．In Paragraph 1 the author mentions 17th century Dutch people as an example of a group that________.A．consisted mainly of selftaught artistsB．appreciated portraitsC．influenced American folk artD．had little time for the arts37．According to the passage, where were many of the first American folk art portraits painted?A．In western New York.B．In Illinois and Missouri.C．In Connecticut and Massachusetts.D．In Ohio.38．How much did the population of the United States increase in the first fifty years following independence?A．It became three times larger.B．It became five times larger.C．It became eleven times larger.D．It became thirteen times larger.39．According to the passage, which of the following contributed to a decline in the demand for painted portraits?A．The lack of a strong craft tradition.B．The westward immigration of many painters.C．The growing preference for landscape paintings.D．The invention of the camera.40．The author implies that most limners________.A．received instruction from travelling teachersB．were womenC．were from wealthy familiesD．had no formal art trainingBTwo studies are suggesting that some overweight people do not face an increased risk of developing heart disease. Researchers also found that some individuals of normalbody weight have an increased risk of the disease.Being overweight does increase your risk of medical problems, but the studies found that not all heavy people are less healthy than thin people.In one study, American researchers examined medical records from over 5000 men and women. Each person had taken part in a separate study from 1999 to . The searchers found that about 51% of them were overweight or obese. About 32% were obese, but considered metabolically(关于新陈代谢的)healthy. This means they had no evidence of problems in tests for high blood pressure or other factors linked to heart disease. However, more than 23% of people who were at a healthy weight were unhealthy in two or more aspects Judith WylieRosett helped carry out the American study. She says the finding show that all obese person can still be healthy. She believes that having body fat is not as important as where the fat is found on body. It's reported that twothir ds of Americans are considered overweight or obese.A second study is suggesting that fat in the liver(肝)may be an important health risk. Norbert Stefan and his team closely examined 314 people.They measured how much body fat each person had, and where it was on the body. To do this ，they used medical imaging tests. They discovered that obese people could have healthy hearts. Their results suggest that fat in the liver is more dangerous than fat in other areas. The results of both studies were published recently in the Archives of Internal Medicine.Professor WylieRosett says the findings don't mean that people shouldn't be concerned about obesity. Experts say there are several diseases linked to obesity that make it more dangerous to be fat than thin. They say people should see their doctor to learn what health risks they may be facing and what behaviours should be changed to improve health.41．What was found in 23% of the healthy people examined?A．No factors linked to heart disease.B．They were unhealthy in two or more aspects.C．High blood pressure.D．No evidence of problems.42．Professor WylieRosett agrees that people should________.A．avoid becoming obeseB．not worry about becoming obeseC．worry about becoming thinD．not be afraid of several diseases43．The underlined word“obese〞in the third paragraph probably means “________〞．A．being too thin B．being healthyC．being too fat D．being unhealthy44．The text is mainly about evidence that some people can___ _____.A．be both fat and healthyB．develop heart diseaseC．increase weightD．have too much fat in the liver11、B12、D13、C14、A15、B16、B17、B18、A19、C20、D21、B22、D23、C24、A25、D26、A27、C28、B29、D43、C44、 A。

Luckily, new research has found deep water reserves under the state which could help solve their drought crisis. Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted(抽取). The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers(地下蓄⽔层) below this depth and found that reserves may be three times what was previously thought.The aquifers range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet below the ground, which means that pumping will be expensive and there are other concerns. The biggest concern of pumping out water from this deep is the gradual settling down of the land surface. As the water is pumped out, the vacant space left is compacted(压实) by the weight of the earth above.Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating (脱盐) the ocean water in this coastal state. Some desalination factories exist where possible, but they are costly to run and can need constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage.One problem with these sources is that the deep water also has a higher level of salt than shallower aquifers. This means that some wells may even need to undergo desalination after extraction, thus increasing the cost. The result of a thorough study of groundwater from over 950 drilling logs has just been published. New estimates of the water reserves in the state now go up to 2,700 billion cubic meters of freshwater.21. How could California’s drought prob lem be solved according to some researchers?A. By building more reserves of groundwater.B. By drawing water from the depths of the earth.C. By developing more advanced drilling machines.D. By improving its water distribution system.22. What is mentioned as a consequence of pumping water from deep underground?A. The sinking of land surface.B. The harm to the ecosystem.C.The damage to aquifers.D. The change of the climate. 23. What does the author say about deep wells? A. They run without any need for repairs. B. They are the final solution to droughts. C. They are entirely free from pollution. D. They provide a steady supply of freshwater. . B⾼⼆下开学初周测-第1页(共10页) 1英语试题-第2页(共10页)In one of the old buildings near our school, one could see an old man sitting by a large window on the first floor. His name was James. During the three years at school, I had hardly ever found him missing from his usual position.He was a high－ranking government official and lived happily with his wife. Once there was a bus accident, in which a number of passengers were seriously injured and were taken to the hospital for treatment. James was responsible for the rescue operation. It was a big hospital, but James was shocked to notice how ill－equipped it was. There were no enough life－saving drugs and life－supporting equipment. The injured and their companions had to struggle there. James attempted to help. However, though he emptied his pockets, many of them died that day.That was a turning point in his life. He made a decision to devote his life to helpingothers，particularly the poor and needy patients and their companions. He began spending much of his income on these people. Since this required a lot of time and energy, he found it difficult to fulfill his official duties and therefore chose to retire, which, in turn, reduced his income considerably.His wife was deeply worried. Most of the time, James was out and paid least attention to home affairs. Meanwhile, as he was spending a lot helping others, she had to struggle even to meet the household expenses. Though she was not opposed to his helping the poor, she urged him not to overlook his own life and home, but it had no effect on him. One day they had a heated argument and in the end she left him, never to return. Though he continued with his work, this was a great blow and did serious harm to his health and enthusiasm and he was soon forced to stay indoors. That was when he took his position by the window, spending his time looking outside.A few weeks after my graduation, I returned to school, only to find the buildings gone. I heard that they were torn down. All the people left except James. He refused to go and the next morning, he was found at his usual place by the window, dead. 24．James chose to retire in order to ．A．take care of the injured passengers. B．find a better job to increase his income.C．spare more time and energy to help others. D．stay away from the difficult official duties. 25．James’ wife left because．A．she was strongly against his deeds. B．James paid too little attention to his work.C．her work to support their daily life was too tiring..D．James failed to keep a balance between charity and home.26.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to ．A．His decision to retire B．The departure of his wifeC．The argument with his wife D．His devotion to helping others27. What is possibly the reason why James sat by the window every day?A. He expected his wife to return.B. He looked forward to going out.C. He desired to watch the students.D. He attempted to know the outside lifeCA growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four day workweek. Now the results of a recent trial at Microsoft suggest it could work even for the biggest businesses.The company introduced a program this summer in Japan called the "Work Life Choice Challenge", which shut down its offices every Friday in August and gave all employees an extra day off each week. The results were promising: while the amount of time spent at work was cut dramatically, productivity—measured by sales per employee went up by almost 40% compared to the same period of the previous year, the company said in a statement last week.In addition to reducing working hours, managers urged staff to cut down on the time they spent in meetings and responding to emails. They suggested that meetings should last no longer than 30 minutes. Employees were also encouraged to cut down on meetings altogether by using an online messaging app.The effects were widespread. More than 90% of Microsoft's 2,280 employees in Japan later said they were impacted by the new measures, according to the company. By shutting down earlier each week, the company was also able to save on other resources, such as electricity.Japan has long battled with a cruel--and in some cases, deadly--culture of overwork. The problem is so severe that the country has even coined a term for it: karoshi death by overwork from stress-induced illnesses or severe depression.The issue attracted international attention in 2015, when an employee at Japanese advertising giant Dentsu committed suicide on Christmas Day. Tokyo officials later said that the staff had worked excessive amounts of overtime. Two years later, a reporter at a Japanese broadcaster died after working punishing long hours. Her employer said she had clocked in 159 hours of overtime the month before her death.That has led businesses to start searching for solutions. Sonic companies have begun offering employees more flexibility, and the government has launched a campaign called "Premium Friday", which encourages workers to leave early every last Friday of the month.28. Microsoft introduced the "Work Life Choice Challenge" program this summer by .A. holding a long-distance meeting every Friday.B. giving three days off to its employees every week.C. shutting down its office areas every weekend.D. organizing a corporate tour every week.29. What is the result of adopting a four-day workweek?A. It is a waste of energy.B. The workers earned less money.C. The working efficiency increases greatly.D. Japan’s unemployment rate is rising.30. How can the time the staff spent on meetings be reduced?A. By canceling meeting.B. By using emails to respond.C. By cutting down working hours.D. By using a certain online messaging app.31. What is the staff’s attitude to the new measures?A. supportive.B. negativeC. criticalD. indifferentDAnger is an emotion that can be hard to control. Despite this, we should learn how to manage anger in a constructive manner. In the most intense moments of anger, we usually have two choices — to fight or to run. Some choose the option of violence, which is a negative reaction to anger; and others choose to run. But the option of walking away and calming down is the more productive method of handling anger. It is difficult to walk away, especially when your heart is racing, and your anger is boiling over.There are some other constructive ways of handling anger in any situation. First, you have to stop for a brief moment and think before you act. Take that moment and calm down if you feel yourself being pushed.At that moment you should admit you are angry. If you refuse to admit you are angry or hurt, or if you make it appear that everything is all right, you are not managing angry in a productive way. You should first admit you are angry and let your feelings out before you blow up. For example, you can stay in a quiet place by yourself and shout; or you can talk to close friends to pour out your rage (愤怒). If you do not⾼⼆下开学初周测-第3页(共10页) 英语试题-第4页(共10页)2acknowledge your anger, it only builds up inside you and will eventually explode like a volcano.Then, in order to manage your angry, you can ask yourself an important question that we all must ask ourselves ― What made me angry? When you get the answer, and then ask yourself ― Why did that made me angry? Through such logical reasoning, one tends to calm down and move towards a sensible solution.32. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 is to ________.A. provide an exampleB. make a comparisonC. introduce a new statementD. develop a previous statement33. If people face anger, ________.A. they know how to manage itB. it is often quite hard to get awayC. they can only choose to fight or to runD. they believe running means being a coward34. It can be inferred from Para. 3 and 4 that ________.A. one can handle anger by oneself or in groupsB. the first step of handling anger is to calm downC. a person may handle anger by asking random questionsD. acknowledging anger will do harm to a person’s health35. The main purpose of the passage is _______.A. to tell readers what anger isB. to explain why anger is hard to controlC. to show the importance of handling angerD. to offer tips on handling anger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。
