The Sierra Nevada foothills, once thick with towering pines, were unrecognizable. The ground was covered with a thick blanket of ash.We’d gotten an early-morning call telling us to move out immediately two weeks earlier. The wildfire tearing through Northern California had spread and was heading our way. We jumped in the car with our dogs and a few belongings. For days, we bounced from hotel to hotel, desperate for news. What finally came wasn’t good. Our house had been right in the fire’s path. Now we’d been given permission to return. My husband and I broughtshovels(铁铲), work boots, masks and gloves. We would "rescue" anything we could.We drove slowly through the ruins, where chimneys marked the spots where homes once stood. I wasn’t prepared for what awaited us. Our house was nothing butrubble(碎石). Most of our belongings, including my precious collection of inspirational books, were all gone.I wiped away tears as we dug through the ash. We uncovered a cast-iron umbrella stand that used to stand beside our door, and a decorative dish our son had given me, blackened but whole, which reminded us of bits and pieces of our life. How will we survive this? It felt as if our lives had been wiped out.We stopped digging in late afternoon. My husband loaded what we’d found in the car and said, "Let’s go." I turned to get in the car. That was when I noticed something stuck to my boot. A piece of paper. I picked it up. Its edges were burnt, but the words were surprisingly clear, " If life seems difficult, I pause and reflect on the blessing sometimes hidden within every circumstance. With renewed faith and courage, I begin again."The words must have come from one of my books, a passage I couldn’t recall but now said everything I needed to hear. I framed that piece of paper and kept it on the nightstand in every hotel and motel we stayed in over the following months. It now sits in a place of honor in our new home, a reminder that we can begin again.4.What can we learn from paragraph 2?A.The author’s family left home hurriedly.B.The author’s family lost everything in the fire.C.The wildfire first broke out close to the author’s home.D.No warning about the wildfire was given two weeks earlier.5.How might the author feel when she was digging through the ash?A.Guilty.B.Astonished.C.Hopeless.D.Grateful.6.When was the text written?A.When the wildfire spread.B.When the author stayed in a hotel.C.While the author’s house was being rebuilt.D.After the author’s family settled down again.7.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.A narrow escape.B.Rising from the ash.C.An attempt at a rescue.D.A wildfire in North California.Nestled in the waters off the coast of Tuscany, Italy, an unusual seafloor sculpture park is safeguarding its ocean environment.Fisherman Antonio Verdi has been casting his nets in these waters since his youth along the Maremma coastline. It was in the 1980s that he began to notice the clear signs: the seabed was becoming barren, with exhausted fish stocks. Until recently, Antonio Verdi has found himself not only competing with the decline of ocean resources but also with threatening practices of illegal “bottom trawlers(拖网捕鱼的人)”, who randomly spoil a large quantity of ocean life as they fish, dragging a weighted net along the seafloor behind their boats.Antonio Verdi’s style of artisanal fishing(手工捕鱼), in contrast, is friendly to nature as damaging the ecosystem could reduce fishermen’s income. He understood that the success of his fishing activity was linked to the good state of the environment. The underwater "House of Fish" sculpture park, which was started in 2015, was encouraged by this fisherman. "One of the most effective solutions is to physically prevent trawling through artificial reefs, so I started working on this project, trying to combine the protection of the seabed with something that could also give an added value to our environment, something as beautiful as a sculpture,"he stated.Sculptures or rocks can break weighted trawler nets. They can also function as artificial reefs, offering habitats for corals and other sea creatures. Due to the presence of the underwater sculptures, some species not seen in a long while such as groupers and lobsters have rejoined the waters. The sculpture park represents both an artistic expression and a defence against destructive seafloor trawling.Presently, 39 massive stone sculptures are scattered across the seabed along an area of Tuscan coastline near the town of Talamone. In the near future, Antonio Verdi hopes to extend his protective efforts in coastal waters. "The sea is still under threat," he says, "and my mission to protect it continues."8.What does the underlined word "barren" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Unproductive.B.Delicate.C.Fruitful.D.Nutritious.9.How does Antonio Verdi’s fishing differ from that of the illegal "bottom trawlers"?A.He uses larger nets to catch more fish.B.His method is less damaging to the ecosystem.C.He focuses on catching specific high-value fish.D.His fishing involves the use of underwater sculptures.10.What impact has the sculpture park had on the local ocean life?A.A shift in the types of fish caught by local fishermen.B.A decrease in the number of fish due to the sculptures.C.The return of species that had previously disappeared from the area.D.The extinction of some species due to the increased human presence.11.What is the relationship between human activities and the ocean environment according to this article?A.The ocean is too vast to be affected by human activities.B.Human activities have no significant impact on sea creatures.C.The only way to protect sea creatures is to prohibit human activities.D.Fishing should be in line with efforts to maintain a healthy ocean ecosystem.Solar cells play an important role in the shift towards a greener future, with an increasing number of buildings and rooftops worldwide being fitted with solar panels. However, their large size can be a limitation. A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) has developed a technique to produce incredibly lightweight solar cells that can be placed on a variety of surfaces.These solar cells are made from nanomaterials using a kind of electronic ink. Their thinness allows them to be applied to many different surfaces, such as being placed on the wings of drones(无人机) to prolong their battery life. These cells are thinner than human hair, yet they are capable of producing approximately 18 times more power per kilogram compared to traditional solar panels.A problem that researchers are addressing before these solar cells can be mass-produced is how to protect the solar cells from oxygen and moisture(湿气). While traditional solar cells are protected by glass, adding such a layer would remove the major advantage of the new ultra-thin solar cells. Scientists are currently exploring alternative protective measures.Australia is also witnessing notable progress in this field. During the "Charge Around Australia" project, scientists drove around the country in a Tesla that was powered only by solar panels on a three-month journey. These solar panels were stored in the vehicle’s trunk and provided power if necessary.12.What is the main advantage of the new solar cells developed by MIT scientists?A.They are diverse in form.B.They are more affordable to produce.C.They are protected by a layer of glass.D.They are flexible and generate more power.13.What challenge do scientists face before these solar cells can be mass-produced?A.To extend the battery life.B.To make them absorb more energy.C.To guard them against oxygen and moisture.D.To get rid of size and geographical limitation.14.What most probably makes glass improper as a protective layer?A.Its cost.B.Its weight.C.Its structure.D.Its breakability.15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Solar panels have been widely used in vehicles around the world.B.Australia relied on a network of charging stations in the project.C.Significant innovation was made in solar technology in Australia.D.The Tesla was charged using traditional power outlets in the project.二、七选五16.Valleys are one of the most common landforms on the Earth. They are formed through erosion(侵蚀) or the gradual wearing down of the land by wind and water. Their form depends on what is eroding it, the slope(坡度) of the land, the type of rock or soil and the amount of time the land has been eroded. There are three common types of valleys: V-shaped valleys, U-shaped valleys and flat floored valleys.①A V-shaped valley, sometimes called a river valley, is a narrow valley withsteeply(陡峭地) sloped sides that appear similar to the letter "V". They are formed by strong streams, which over time have cut down into the rock. These valleys form with streams in their "youthful" stage. ② An example of a V-shaped valley is the Grand Canyon in the Southwestern United States.A U-shaped valley is a valley with a profile(轮廓) similar to the letter "U".③ They are formed by glacial(冰川的) erosion during the last glaciation. This is because ice sheets flowed down the pre-existing river or V-shaped valleys and caused the bottom of the "V" to level out into a "U" shape, resulting in a wider, deeper valley.The third type of the valley is called a flat-floored valley. These valleys, like V-shaped valleys, are formed by streams. ④ Over time, the stream continues to erode the valley’s soil, widening it further. With flood, the material that is eroded and carried in the stream is deposited which builds up the floodplain and the valley. During this process, the shape of the valley changes from a V or U shaped valley into one with a broad flat valley floor.⑤ They are close to rivers which enable easier movement and also provide resources like water, good soils and food such as fish. The valleys themselves were also helpful as valley walls often blocked winds and other severe weather if the settlement patterns were positioned correctly. Valleys also provided a safe place for settlement and made invasions difficult.A. A valley is normally occupied by a river or stream.B. During this period, streams flow rapidly down steep slopes.C. The river begins to erode the bank of its channel instead of valley walls.D. The shape of valleys varies but they are typically steep-sided canyons or broad plains.E. This type of valley is characterized by steep sides that curve in at the base of the valley wall.F. The difference is that they are no longer in their youthful stage, and are instead in a mature stage.G. Valleys have played an important role in people’s life since the beginning of human development.三、完形填空(15空)I love riding a bike to work no matter the weather.Biking’s timeless joy 1 the kid in me.

The book ② (consist) of 16 chapters, each featuring a practical recipe. Dunlop explores Chinese food from the remote Gansu countryside ③ the historic city of Yangzhou. Rather than④ (mere) presenting the food, she immerses herself in tasting it and, more importantly, investigating it.From amazement to ⑤ (accept), Dunlop embarks on this food journey by learning to cook and trying different Chinese foods including sea cucumber and scorpion(蝎子), despite her usual dietary preferences.This ⑥ (remark) book provides an exciting journey changing from simple descriptions of Sichuan pepper to serious discussions on topics like animal cruelty related to expensive food such as shark’s fin. Readers are also encouraged⑦ (appreciate) other aspects of life beyond food from the perspective of⑧ outsider.Dunlop’s passion for Chinese cuisine is clear throughout her writing. She shows how westerners can set aside biases(偏见) and accept Chinese culture. This duality(双重性)⑨ (reflect) in the book’s title: Sichuan pepper stands for everyday energy, while shark’s fin represents high-end luxury. This mix of daily life and a taste for luxury enriches Chinese cuisine, ⑩ (leave) a lasting impression on readers.五、书面表达33.假定你是李华,你校英文网站拟增设一个新版块(section),正向同学们征求建议。

It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯),but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.(8分)DMany people think of the brain as a mystery(神秘).They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works.When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb(愚笨的)—and stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink(萎缩)and you get weaker.That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells(神经细胞).Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow.Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things.32.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.33.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible34.Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care of B.a good communication between personsC.help from scientists D.our learning new things35.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Strong B.Lovely C.Smart D.Active三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)6.(10分)How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that. As certain as the sun will rise, our inboxes will be full by mid-morning.Honestly, we’ve done it to ourselves. We depend too much on it to communicate and as a result, we have made ourselves pay attention to every one of them. This is terrible, 37 Every time an e-mail interrupts you, it costs time, money, and brainpower.Here are some of my best tips to manage emails:38 You can’t get into work if you check emails every ten minutes. Instead, you should set certain times to check your inbox, like the top of every hour or every 90 minutes. Set a timer on your phone and stick to it.Scan your inbox. 39 At the same time, leave out everything that is unnecessary and answer timely requests first.40 Instead of creating an email, try speaking with the person you want to communicate with.

1 西和二中2015-2016学年度第一学期高二月考试题 英 语
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。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.
A My husband is reading The Secret Garden aloud to our kids. They are at the part where Mary has told Colin that she’s found the garden her mother loved. It’s an exciting moment. But the passage I’m waiting for is a few chapters on, after Colin has tasted his first breaths of fresh air and Mary has grown strong running in the garden. It’s just a detail, but my kids will notice it: a delicious description of roasted potatoes and eggs. We have a tradition of trying foods from the books we read aloud. It started when we read Elizabeth Enright’s The Saturdays, and one of the boys asked, “What are petit fours?” An answer, my husband and I felt, wouldn’t be as good as a sample. So one Saturday we all sat down having tea and little cakes, covered with pink, green, and yellow. It was exciting for the kids to try a dessert they had learned about in a book. The petit fours they tried didn’t tell them what it was like to live in New York City 60 years ago, but tasting them made the book’s words alive. Later, when we read C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, we had Turkish delight. We read The Penderwicks, written by Jeanne Birdsall, and had gingerbread (姜饼). We read Paddington Bear and tried marmalade. Soon we will reach the part of The Secret Garden where Mary, Colin, and Dickon roast potatoes and eggs in a small oven (炉) in the earth. My kids will go out into the woods to find the perfect place for an oven of our own. Yes, we’ve eaten potatoes and eggs, but never in the open air. The world that a good book creates is whole and real, but it lies flat on the page until 2
a reader gives life to it. 1. The text is written mainly to . A. show the importance of reading aloud B. discuss food culture in children’s books C. provide a new means of family education D. introduce some interesting books 2. The author believes tasting foods from the books may help children . A. enjoy more healthy food B. be friendlier to each other C. know more about history D. understand the books better 3. The underlined words “Turkish delight” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to . A. a great time B. something delicious C. a trip to Turkey D. more stories 4. From the fourth paragraph, we can learn that the author’s family . A. will look for a secret garden in the woods B. will read The Secret Garden in the open air C. will eat roasted potatoes and eggs at home D. will cook potatoes and eggs in the woods 5. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage? A. The taste of a good book B. The best way to make kids learn C. Eating means more than reading D. Our roasted potatoes and eggs B About 18,000 refugees (难民) from Burma have come to the United States each year since 2007. Some have settled in Howard County, Maryland between Baltimore and Washington. A local school began teaching English to the children of the refugees. But while the children learned the language, their parents did not. That made communication with teachers arduous. At present, almost fifty children from Burma attend Bollman Bridge Elementary School. Laurel Conran is a teacher there. She said, “The main idea is the global idea.” She teaches English to speakers of other languages. One of her students is Tha Neih Ciang. Another student is Tha Neih’s mother, Tin Iang. Ms. Conran practices English with Tin Iang at the mother’s workplace. Many refugees from Burma work at Coastal Sunbelt Produce, a supplier of fruits and vegetables to restaurants and other businesses. 3
Laurel Conran started classes at the company to help refugees from Burma learn English. Laurel Conran said, “The program is a six-week session. It’s once a week, on every Wednesday, from twelve to one o’clock. So every Wednesday I go to Coastal Sunbelt.” As the workers eat lunch, they also practice their new language skills. Lisa Chertok has a child at Bollman Bridge. She is also a manager at Coastal Sunbelt. She helped Ms. Conran develop the lessons, which she says have really helped. Lisa Chertok said, “Well, when the Burmese employees got here, they were very, very shy. Now I find that they are more outspoken than before. They’re more communicative. As parents, they are also more involved in their children’s school.” Jonathan Davis is the principal of Bollman Bridge Elementary School. Mr. Davis hopes the lessons will help these parents feel better about communicating with the school. He said, “Even as simple as making a phone call to say that their son or daughter is sick, even if that’s the amount of English that they have got from the program, that truly will help us.” 6. What is the main idea of this passage? A. A local school is providing free English lessons for the poor. B. Refugees from Burma are trying their best to learn English. C. A local school is helping refugees from Burma learn English. D. Refugees from Burma have settled in Howard County, Maryland. 7. What does the underlined word “arduous” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Interesting. B. Necessary. C. Surprising. D. Difficult. 8. When the refugees from Burma first arrived in Howard County, . A. the children could speak very good English B. the parents liked communicating with the teachers C. the parents could help their children speak English D. neither the children nor the parents could speak English 9. What can we learn about Laurel Conran from the passage? A. She mainly teaches English to the local children in a school. B. She often goes to the refugees’ company to teach them English. C. She teaches not only English but also other languages.
