2015—2016学年度第二学期期中考试高一英语试题卷考试时间：120分钟试卷分值：135分I、阅读理解(共三篇，10小题，每小题2分，满分20分)AIf there is a building which symbolizes a country—such as the Eiffel Tower for France and Sydney Opera House for Australia—then it has to be the Taj Mahal for India.It was set up by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1653 in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal. From the time they got married, they wouldn't be separated. She followed him to wars, advised him on affairs of state, and was loved by his people for her good work. But she died in 1631 during childbirth. The emperor was heart－broken and had the Taj Mahal built as a sign of his love.It took more than 20 years for the Taj Mahal to be built. Workers were brought in, not only from all over India, but from Central Asia too. A total of 20,000 people worked on the building.In 1657, Shah Jahan fell ill, and in 1658 his son Aurangzeb, imprisoned (囚禁) his father and seized power. Shah Jahan stayed in prison until his death in 1666. He was finally buried there with his wife he could never forget.The Taj Mahal is definitely worth more than a single visit. As it is built with white marble stones, its character changes in different lights. It looks more beautiful at sunrise and sunset. At sunset, for example, the colour of the Taj changes from white to yellow, then to pink. As the moon rises, it turns a silvery white.To show respect to the Taj, tourists are asked to take off their shoes during their visit.1．Emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal to ________.A．make it symbolize India B. memorize his wifeC．show his great power D．give his wife a present2．Which of the following about the Taj Mahal is NOT true?A．It is a symbol of India.B．It took over 20 years to build the Taj Mahal.C．All workers building the Taj Mahal came from Central Asia.D．The Taj Mahal was built with white marble stones.3．According to the passage, we know that Shah Jahan ______.A．lived a hard life in his last few yearsB．lost his life just because of his old ageC．was not popular with his people at that timeD．treated his son badly when he was youngBHumans have sewn by hand for thousands of years. It was said that the first thread was made from animal muscle and sinew (腱). And the earliest needles were made from bones. Since those early days, many people have been involved in the process of developing a machine that could do the same thing more quickly and with greater efficiency.Charles Wiesenthal, who was born in Germany, designed and received a patent（专利权）on a double-pointed needle that eliminated(消除) the need to turn the needle around with each stitch (缝合) in England in 1755. Other inventors of that time tried to develop a functional sewing machine, but each design had at least one serious imperfection. A Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier finally engineered a machine that really worked. However, he was nearly killed by a group of angry tailors when they burned down his garment factory. They feared that they would lose their jobs to the machine.American inventor Elias Howe, born on July 9, 1819, was awarded a patent for a method of sewing that used thread from two different sources. Howe’s machine had a needle with an eye at the point, and it used the two threads to make a special stitch called a lockstitch.(双线连锁缝纫法) However, Howe faced difficulty in finding buyers for his machines in America. In frustration, he traveled to England to try to sell his invention there. When he finally returned home, he found that dozens of manufacturers（制造商）were adapting his discovery for use in their own sewing machines.Isaac Singer, another American inventor, was also a manufacturer who made improvements to the design of sewing machines. He invented an up-and-down-motion mechanism that replaced the side-to-side machines. He also developed a foot treadle(脚踏板) to power his machine. This improvement left the sewer’s hands free. Undoubtedly, it was a huge improvement of the hand-cranked machine of the past. Soon the Singer sewing machine achieved more fame than the others for it was more practical, it could be adapted to home use and it could be bought onhire-purchase. The Singer sewing machine became the first home equipment, and the Singer company became one of the first American multinationals.However, Singer used the same method to create a lockstitch that Howe had already patented. As a result, Howe accused him of patent infringement（侵犯）. Of course, Elias Howe won the court case, and Singer was ordered to pay Howe royalties（版税）. In the end, Howe became a millionaire, not by manufacturing the sewing machine, but by receiving royalty payments for his invention.4．Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Singer is an American inventor and manufacturer.B. The Singer sewing company became more practical.C. The foot treadle helped to make the sewer’s hands free.D. Singer made improvements to the design of sewing machines.5．Why did the court force Isaac Singer to pay Elisa Howe a lifetime of royalties?A. Because the judge was against Singer for his surly attitude.B. Because Howe had already patented the lockstitch used by Singer.C. Because Singer had borrowed money from Howe and never repaid it.D. Because Singer and Howe had both invented the same machine.6．Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A Stitch in Time Saves NineB. The Case between Howe and SingerC. Patent Laws on the Sewing MachineD. The Early History of the Sewing MachineCI made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will.A person can choose to love. ” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “Oh, Tom, you noticed，” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach.I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today.

Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation (PPIE) was started in 1987 to raise money by organizing running events for local schools. Based in Pleasanton, California, a suburb of San Francisco, the non-profit organization recently hosted a family-focused fitness event for the community. “Our event helps to bring the community together,” said Mindy Louie, events and outreach manager for PPIE. “We have more than 3,000 participants, hard-working volunteers and viewers.”This year’s fitness event took place on April 30 at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. It featured races of two miles, five kilometers and ten kilometers. A new Kids Challenge consisted of a quarter-mile run to encourage younger children to participate. When asked to describe the run, 11-year-old Jeremy Louie said, “Fun, exciting and enjoyable.” Jeremy added that he was happy to help support his school.PPIE supports all 15 schools in the Pleasanton Unified School District, which include more than 14, 500 students and 800 teachers and staff. The nonprofit organization tries to fund programs affected by budget cuts, while encouraging fitness and athleticism. To date, the PPIE has raised over $1 million for the school district.A local runners’ group called the BURN Youth Development (B. Y. D.) participated in the fundraising. The B.Y.D. has since grown to more than 100 youth members, 30 of whom ran in April’s PPIE event. Jerry Wu,the group’s founder and lead coach, explained that the B.Y.D. was born to keep kids running. “Watching them running strongly and happily makes me smile every time,” Jerry said.Jerry encourages teamwork and teaches the students valuable running techniques. As a B.Y.D. member, Ollie Gu, an eighth grader, was one of the top finishers in the ten-kilometer run. He completed the race in 40 minutes and 46 seconds and won first place in the 12-to-15 year-old age group. “The race was extremely rewarding,” Ollie said. “I’m looking forward to it next year.”24. Which race was recently created?A．A ten-kilometer run. B．A quarter-mile run.C．A five-kilometer run. D．A two-mile run.25. Why does the author list some numbers in paragraph 3?A．To stress the great influence of PPIE.B．To show a small budget for education.C．To introduce the school district in brief.D．To advertise the organization’s programs.26. What did both Jerry and Ollie want to convey?A．Their duties as athletes. B．Their feelings as coaches.C．Their recognition of the B.Y.D. D．Their anticipation of the next run.27. What is the text mainly about?A．Sports volunteers. B．Young sportsmen.C．Running with teachers. D．Racing for education.The Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), China’s leading aircraft maker, created the country’s first fully solar-powered drone (无人机). The large drone, Qimingxing 50, took off at 5:50 pm on September 3rd, 2022, from an airport in Yulin of Shaanxi Province and stayed in the air for 26 minutes before landing on the same runway. AVIC said that all systems of the unmanned plane functioned well on its first flight.Powered by six electric motors with solar batteries, the drone is designed to conduct long-time operations in near space. Near space is that part of Earth’s atmosphere at altitudes of 20 to 100 kilometers. It is above the top altitudes of commercial airliners but below orbiting satellites. Qimingxing 50, also called “quasi-satellite”, features high operational efficiency and eco-friendliness and will be tasked with high-altitude reconnaissance (侦察), forestry fire monitoring, atmospheric environmental inspection, aerial mapping, communication signal relay and other operations.“Thanks to its capability to conduct very long endurance flights in n ear space, the drone can essentially become a substitute for satellites,” a Chinese aerospace expert said. Satellite services are not always available due to the limited number of satellites and relatively fixed schedules of overhead passes. In time-sensitive missions, near-space drones can offset these disadvantages, the expert said, noting that satellite services could also be damaged in wartime, so near-space drones could replace them in this occasion.The successful first flight of the Qimingxing-50 lays a solid foundation for the development of key technologies in the country’s new energy field, the composite (复合的) material field, which will enhance China’s ability to perform tasks in near space and over far oceans. AVIC will seize the opportunity to increase investment and speed up the development of large solar-powered unmanned aircraft.28. What do we know about AVIC?A．It produced the world’s largest unmanned plane.B．It started the trend of using solar batteries in aircraft.C．It developed China’s first fully solar-powered drone.D．It greatly improved the speed of commercial airliners.29. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about Qimingxing 50?A．Its design features. B．Its diverse functions.C．Its operating procedures. D．Its environmental benefits30. What does the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Detect. B．Expose. C．Analyze. D．Remove.31. What will AVIC do in the future?A．Increase investment in the new energy industry.B．Accelerate the development of large solar drones.C．Create a new composite material to manufacture aircraft.D．Make Qimingxing-50 conduct long-time tasks over far seas.A lunar crystal (水晶) was found in lunar basalt particles (玄武岩颗粒) collected from the moon in 2020 when the Chinese moon mission landed in Oceanus Procellarum, returning with more than 1.7 kg of lunar samples delivered safely to the Earth.The crystal found on the near side of the moon is giving scientists hope of providing limitless power for the world forever. It is made of material previously unknown to the scientific community and contains a key ingredient for the nuclear fusion (核聚变) process, a form of power generation that uses the same forces that fuel the sun and other stars. It is transparent and roughly the width of a single human hair, and it formed in a region of the moon where volcanoes were active around 1.2 billion years ago.One of the primary ingredients found in this crystal is helium-3 (氦-3) , which scientists believe may provide a stable fuel source for nuclear fusion reactors. The element is incredibly rare on the Earth, but it seems to be fairly common on the moon. China’s next moon mission is expected to be carried out by Chang’e 6 in 2024, which will attempt to collect the first samples from the far side of the moon, which never faces the Earth.Although it is too early for scientists to have made financial estimates on such a fuel source, it will undoubtedly be extremely costly. There is, of course, the matter of bringing the crystals back from the moon, especially in large amounts that are needed to fuel fusion reactors.Helium-3 produces significantly less radiation and nuclear waste than other elements. The current nuclear fusion process has raised serious safety concerns, and as a result, scientists have been searching for a way to create nuclear power from nuclear fusion. During the fusion process, radioactive waste is not produced, potentially making a securer and more efficient fuel source. Around 25 tons of helium-3 could power the US for a year. Multiple private companies and countries with space agencies have signaled their intentions to mine the moon for helium-3, and this latest discovery could kick start the race.32. What can we learn about the crystal?A．It is 1.7 centimeters wide.B．It is expected to power the Earth.C．It is commonly found on the Earth.D．It is made of previously familiar material.33. What will Chang’e 6 try to do in the next moon mission?A．Collect up nuclear waste.B．Find out the elements of helium-3.C．Set up lunar nuclear fusion reactors.D．Take back the samples of lunar crystals.34. What is helium-3 as fuel expected to be like?A．It is low in cost. B．It is clean and safe.C．It absorbs radiation. D．It produces no waste.35. What is the best title for the text?A．A Struggling Race to Make CrystalsB．An Undoubted Discovery Powering the USC．An Efficient Way to Collect Crystals from the MoonD．A Rare Moon Crystal Discovered by Chinese ScientistsThe Feynman Technique(费曼学习法)is a powerful method that you can use to learn anything faster because it forces you to actively think about the problem instead of passively reading or listening to someone else talk about it. You can take the following five simple steps to study better.·Find out the topic you want to learn. 36 Otherwise, you'll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.·Explain the topic as if teaching a sixth-grader. This step is the heart of the FeynmanTechnique—37 .This requires you to meet the child at their level of understanding by using the simplest way..Identify areas of improvement in your explanation. You’ll need to critically(批判性地)review the explanation you cane up with in Step Two 38 . Try to find any knowledge gaps, together with any areas where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply.·Improve and optimiez(优化) your explanation. Think about all the knowledge gaps and otherareas of improvement you found before. 39· Repeat the steps until you’ve achieved mastery of the topic. Keep g oing through each step you're fully satisfied with your explanation. 40 , and that is why going through all the prior snnjust once is usually not enough to achieve topic mastery.It is getting hot. It’s time to put on ________ clothes and open up the windows.Yesterday brought a(n) ________ visit to the kitchen during the brief time we were out.
