14-15学年北师大高二上学期期中测试ⅡClass: Name: Marks: 满分（120）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）AWhile some plants can break down harmful chemicals, others make them. These plants produce poisons to keep other plant species from invading (入侵) their areas. This phenomenon (现象) is called allelopathy (植化相克).“Allelopathy is basically a chemical war for plants,” explained Joseph Jez. The plant biologist works at Washington University in St. Louis. “Think of plants as chemical factories,” he said. “Some plants make chemicals to help themselves. Take the sweet smell of a rose for example, the mix of chemicals responsible for that sweet smell helps in reproduction (繁殖). Other plants make chemicals to poison other plants. Walnut, for instance, can make some chemicals called juglone (胡桃醌)，which can make other plant species to weaken and die. In fact, people sometimes use juglone as a natural weed killer (除草剂).Jez studies the proteins that control the amount of certain chemicals that plants make. In particular, he studies the shape of those proteins. It turns out that the proteins‟ shape can affect the quantity of protective chemicals that some plants can produce.“Better understanding the shape of these proteins will offer some tips on how they control chemicals. I try to understand nature‟s principle and how it makes proteins,” Jez said. “We‟re still at the very early stage. But if we can figure that out, we might be able to control it.” Some researchers are studying how to build useful proteins in a test tube. Others are trying to understand how to help plants increase their production of these proteins.1. One of the reasons for plants to produce chemicals is that .A. the chemicals can help them live longerB. the chemicals can help them grow betterC. the chemicals can help them protect their areasD. the chemicals can help them invade others‟ areas2. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refers to.A. certain chemicalsB. the proteinsC. some tipsD. the researchers3. What can we infer from what Jez said?A. He is not optimistic about the research.B. The shape of the proteins is not worth studying.C. He has figured out how proteins are made.D. Their research work still has a long way to go.BMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (零花钱), or pocket money. The purpose of this is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.The amount of money that parents give to their children differs from family to family. Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly. In any case, parents should make clear what the children are expected to pay for with the money.At first, young children may spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until next time. The object is to show young children that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger items, like clothing or electronic products.Many experts say it is not a good idea to pay your children for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.Pocket money gives children a chance to experience the things they can do with money. They can spend it in the form of gifts or giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save the money and maybe even invest it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice (牺牲): you have to cut costs and plans for the future.Requiring children to save part of their pocket money can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer personal finance services to teenagers. A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest (复利).4. What should parents pay attention to when giving their kids pocket money?A. In what way they should give.B. How much they should give.C. When they should give.D. What their kids will use the money for.5. After knowing their kids have spent all the pocket money soon after receiving it, parents should .A. avoid offering their kids pocket money immediatelyB. show their kids the importance of saving moneyC. advise their kids to save all their pocket moneyD. teach their kids how to spend pocket money6. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Allowance helps children learn how to manage money.B. Kids should get money as long as they do housework.C. Parents should give children enough allowance to buy whatever they want.D. Kids should ask their parents‟ permission whenever they want to spend their money.7. Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Giving kids more and more pocket moneyB. Understanding the meaning of pocket moneyC. How an allowance helps children learn about moneyD. Making more money by compound interestCPicky eaters (挑食者) may have good reasons for their behaviors. No matter why your child has become picky, how you handle the situation can affect his or her future. First of all, you must know the following reasons for picky children.Neophobia is common among children; it often shows itself at the dinner table. Some children just refuse to try new food because they don‟t know what they will taste like, while others dislike new food before even tasting them. Some kids take it to the extreme and will only eat some food that they like. Psychologist Dr. Capaldi says that, by the time children reach the age of two, they have a food routine (惯例), and they don‟t want to be disturbed by new offerings at the table.A newly published study led by Dr. Cooke shows that picky eating in children results from genetic and environmental factors. The research, which followed the eating habits of 5,390 children aged between 8 and 11, found that about 75% of the neophobia in the children was from their parents, while 25% was due to other environmental factors.Children grow at a rapid pace during their first year, and that growth slows down by their second year. Although they continue to develop, fast-paced growth like that in the first year continues to slow down. When a child is not experiencing one of those bursts of growth, their body needs less energy and that translates into a smaller appetite (胃口). When children are not hungry, they tend to only enjoy food that appeal to them. They refuse new food and food that are not their favorites. Some children will limit their intake to one particular food, like hamburgers or pancakes, leaving all other foods untouched.8. The underlined word “neophobia” in Paragraph 2 probably means.A. the fear of the new and unknownB. the fear of eating nutritious foodC. the worry about a lack of new foodD. the feeling of eating at the dinner table9. What can we learn about the study led by Dr. Cooke?A. It followed the eating habits of 5,390 children under the age of 8.B. It focused on environmental influence on children‟s eating habits.C. It showed that genetic factor influenced children‟s eating hab its more.D. It suggested that parents should have a good eating habit.10. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that .A. children will grow rapidly as a result of picky eatingB. children develop their own diet when they grow upC. children like eating new food when they grow upD. children‟s growth has an effect on their diet11. What is the purpose of the text?A. To describe picky eaters‟ bad behaviors.B. To tell parents how to handle picky eaters.C. To show reasons for picky eating among children.D. To tell parents how to correct their children‟s picky eating habits.DWhy is the sky dark at night? My daughter asked me this about 10 years ago. We were looking up at the night sky when she asked, “Are there lots of stars up there?” I said, “Yes.” Then she asked, “Are there stars everywhere?” And I said there were. Then she asked, “Well, if there are stars everywhere and all of them are shining, why don‟t they fill the sky and make the sky shiny?” In her mind, the sky, instead of being da rk, should look like this, brightness everywhere.The key to the paradox (悖论) is, if you look closely at any patch (块) of the sky, you will see shining stars. If you look through a telescope, you will see more. The nearer stars will be brighter, of course, but behind them will be more stars, and behind those, even more. Even if those distant stars are dimmer, there are so many of them; their combined glow should add up to considerable brightness.So why is it so dark at night? Where does the darkness come f rom? Here‟s the answer. It comes from Henry Reich and his team at Minute Physics. The darkness between stars suggests that there are chunks (大块) of deep space where stars are missing. Because they are so far away, light from those stars hasn‟t reached us yet.In other words, the darkness tells us something about the size and character of our universe. The universe is enlarging (变大). In a few billion years, those dark patches between stars will grow. There will be fewer stars to see. A few billion years after that, you‟ll be standing on a hill looking up on a clear night, and the sky will be close to pitch black, no Milky Way, just blackness, because the stars we see today are speeding away from us, leaving a faint infrared light (红外线). We will be very lonely.12. We can infer that the writer‟s daughter.A. had a gift for astronomyB. had a fear of darknessC. was greatly curious about natureD. liked night better than day13. According to Henry Reich and his team, it is dark at night because .A. stars don‟t exist in dark patchesB. stars are missing in deep spaceC. stars are not bright enough to seeD. stars are moving too closely to us14. Which of the following is NOT true about the universe in a few billion years?A. There will be fewer stars to see.B. The sky will be close to pitch black at night.C. Humans will feel very lonely.D. Stars will fill the sky and make the sky shiny.15. The purpose of the text is to .A. discover the mystery of physicsB. stress the importance of curiosityC. explain why the sky is dark at nightD. imagine the future of the universe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。

14-15学年北师大高二上学期期中测试ⅠClass: Name: Marks: 满分（120）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）APeople with many different relationships use small talk. The most common types of people to use small talk are those who do not know each other at all. It is also common for people who are only acquaintances (熟人), often called a “friend of a friend”, to use small talk.There are certain “safe” topics that people usually make small talk about. The weather is probably the number one thing. Sometimes even friends and family members discuss the weather when they meet or start a conversation. Another topic that is generally “safe” is current events, such as sports news and entertainment news. If there is something that you and the other speaker have in common, that may also be acceptable to talk about. Negative comments about another person not involved in the conversation are not acceptable because you cannot be sure who his friends are when you do not know a person well.People make small talk just about anywhere. Most often, small talk happens in places where people are waiting for something. For example, you might chat with another person who is waiting for the bus to arrive. Some social events (such as a party) require small talk among guests who do not know each other very well.The most common time for small talk to happen is the first time you see or meet someone. However, the next time you see each other, you might just smile and say nothing. Do not interrupt two people in order to discuss something unimportant, such as the weather. If someone is reading a book or writing a letter in a waiting room, it is not proper to initiate a conversation either.1. The third paragraph mainly tells us .A. how people make small talkB. people like making small talkC. why people make small talkD. where people make small talk2. What can we learn about small talk according to the text?A. Small talk only happens between strangers.B. When people feel lonely, they will start small talk.C. Unpleasant comments about another person aren‟t a “safe” topic.D. Small talk only happens when people want to make friends.3. The underlined word “initiate” in th e last paragraph probably means “”.A. endB. startC. controlD. avoidBShyness equals (等于) losing opportunities, less pleasure and fewer social connections, but there are ways to make it a thing of the past.When I was fifteen, I was shy. I remember an attractive girl trying to talk with me. My shyness made me focus on me instead of her. I heard my own voice but not hers and I thought about what I was trying to sayinstead of what she was trying to say.To overcome shyness you need to learn to relax. This gives you the space to practice certain conversational skills. Relaxed socializing (社交) is so pleasurable. To start reducing your own shyness, I want you to absorb the following tips and ideas and start to put them into practice.Focus your attention away from yourself. Notice what other people are wearing and make a mental note, listen to their conversation, imagine where they might live, and make a point of remembering names. Not only does this give you more to talk about, it also reduces social anxiety, leaving you feeling calmer.Ask people open questions. Many people like to talk about themselves and will find you interesting if you find them interesting. Ask questions that require more than a “yes” or “no” response such as “What do you like about this place?‟ rather than “Do you like this place?” Once they have answered, you can use add-on (追加) questions connected with the first such as “What other places do you like in this city?” Next you can express your views. This is a great way to get the conversation going.Now I love meeting new people and suspect that my current social confidence would be unrecognizable to my fifteen-year-old self.4. The author didn‟t pay attention to what the girl was saying because.A. her voice was very lowB. he was shy and nervousC. he was attracted by her appearanceD. he wasn‟t interested in her topic5. To get rid of your shyness, you should .A. pay much attention to yourselfB. find a beautiful girl to talk withC. learn to talk to others in a relaxed wayD. ask people some interesting questions6. It can be inferred from the text that .A. people will notice our appearance if we focus on their looksB. shy people will have no friends unless they change themselvesC. shy people may suffer a great deal and may be less happyD. girls like to show off their voices in front of boys7. Which of the following questions will the author probably advise us to ask?A. What a lovely day, isn‟t it?B. Do you like playing basketball?C. Do you think he will pass the exam?D. Why do you find that English is hard to learn?CClaude Monet is surely one of the most famous French artists of all. Monet was particularly interested in the effect of light and would paint the same scene in different lighting conditions or times of the day. For example, he painted around 20 versions of the Rouen Cathedral from dawn to dusk. His most famous paintings include his Water lilies series.The paintings of Paul Cézanne had a lot of influence in the development of 20th century art, including Cubism (立体派) and Fauvism (野兽派). Cézanne is one of the most famous French artists and is known as a “post-impressionist”, which was similar in some ways to impressionism but also broke away from some of its limitations. Famous French paintings include his Bathers and Mont St Victoire series.Henri Matisse was one of the most important famous French artists of the 20th century. He was considered one of the leaders of the Fauvist movement. He had a long and varied(多样化的) artistic career, painting in different styles ranging from Impressionism to Abstract. In 1941, Matisse was diagnosed with cancer and was forced into a wheelchair. But this didn‟t stop him completing the amazing Chapel of the Rosary in Vence.Degas is probably one of the most fascinating of all the famous French artists. He is known as one of the founders of Impressionism, but his paintings were also influenced by classicism, romanticism, and realism. His style is definitely very unique. He was a prolific (多产的) artist, producing over one thousand works. He is best known for his paintings of ballet dancers.8. We can know that Claude Monet painted about 20 versions of the Rouen Cathedral.A. within one dayB. using the same colorsC. at different placesD. in different lighting conditions9.

During Henri Matisse‟s long artistic career, he.A. painted paintings of different stylesB. did his most famous paintings after 1941C. painted in the style of Fauvism most frequentlyD. spent most of his time painting in a wheelchair11. We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. Degas‟ works all belong to ImpressionismB. Degas‟ works were influenced by many stylesC. it‟s not easy to tell Degas‟ paintings from other artists‟D. Degas‟ paintings influenced classicism, romanticism and realismDQuestion: Which program is in Guinness World Records as the world‟s longest running TV quiz show? Answer: “It‟s Academic.”“It‟s Academic” is a Saturday morning program for high school students. The show has been broadcast in the Washington area for fifty years. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton competed on the show when she was a teenager. Teams from local schools are questioned about subjects like history, literature, math, science, religion, politics and sports.Sophie was a TV producer in the 1950s. She started “It‟s Academic” after local school officials asked her to create a program that showed outstanding students.The show‟s host, 84-year-old Mac McGarry, who has hosted “It‟s Academic” since the beginning, says, “When we first started, the young people from various countries were not evident so much. Now, each program presents young people from all over the world, at least descendants (后裔) from people all over the world.”Mac McGarry said, “Every time I look up, I see people who are just seventeen years old. And I think, …Well, I must not be growing older at all. They are full of enthusiasm. I really have to become more active to keep up with them.‟” More than 20,000 students have appeared on the show. Mac McGarry has asked more than 200,000 questions and gotten more than a few funny answers.Kelly Reeder led the team from Rockville High School in Maryland last year. Her school has won the championship on “It‟s Academic” several times. She says, “We have put in a lot of effort over the years. It‟s a really huge honor to end up on the A Team. My friends who are on …It‟s Academic‟ think it‟s cool that I‟m the captain of the A Team, but my friends who are not on …It‟s Academic‟ think it‟s kind of funny.”12. We learn from the text that “It‟s Academic”.A. was started half a century agoB. was produced by Hillary ClintonC. is broadcast across the US every weekD. is a TV show based on Guinness records13. Sophie created the program originally to .A. pick out outstanding studentsB. focus on students‟ schoolworkC. attract more TV viewersD. accomplish a given task14.

By saying “I must not be growing older at all”, McGarry means that she.A. will have to retire soonB. hopes to go on with the workC. feels younger together with teenagersD. worries about her health condition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。

From Monday to Saturday, the paper has about 75 pages, of w hich 20 pages are advertisements. It normally has 5 sections w hich are called Nation, Sports, Metro(大都会), Living and Business.Nation is national news mostly with some international news ab out earthquakes, floods, and tensions(紧张)around the world.

Living is the section with television programs, movies, comics, music, stories about pets, and advice. Busines s has listing of more than 10,000 stocks and a regular report ab out the stock market and business news. The advertising sectio n includes apartments and houses, employment opportunities a nd items to buy, especially cars and trucks.On Sunday, the paper is very large weighing more than two kilos. There are additional sections called Art, Books, International, and Travel. Since this is the day most Americans do not work, t hey have more time for reading.

Blowing it a t this stage, you won’t get a chance to persuade them in person , no matter how good you are. Each company or organization u sually uses its own specially designed form that, although it gen erally asks for the same basic information, may vary in detail. S o the suggestions below will help you to know what to do rather than what you should write.Prepare your personal data record in advance. When visiting fut ure employers, always carry it with you so that you can readily s earch for details such as dates, telephone, numbers and other useful information.Treat every application form as though it is the first one you are completing-write not only carefully but also neatly.Use words that describe each job you have held as fully as pos sible rather than list only the duties you performed. Particularly describe social activities that show your involvemen t(参与) in the community or in the activities in which you held a teac hing or coaching role.Pay particular attention if there is a section on the form that ask s you to say how your education and past experience have esp ecially prepared you for the position.Think this through very carefully before you write so that what y ou say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for. If you can, and if they fit naturally, add a few words to explain how the position fits your overall career plan. Follow these suggestions and you can get your foot in the door of a great future!Title: How to Fill in_____71_______Section B (10 marks)My grandfather was a wonderful gardener. As long as I could remember, he had grown a garden full of vegetables in the bac k of his yard. He grew different kinds of vegetables. One year h e even tried pumpkin. The pumpkins did turn out well.As children, my sister and I would spend time looking after th e garden with him. We would learn about planting seeds. My gr andfather would show us how the beans would climb up the fen ce and he built up beyond the fence to let them climb even high er. I was always surprised to see them grow even taller than me .The pride of my grandfather’s garden was his tomatoes. Ever y year as soon as the tomato plants bloomed, I would ask my gr andfather when we could eat the tomatoes. He would say, “Not yet.”I would ask the next week, “ Can we pick them yet?”He would answer, “Not yet.”Finally, I would be sure that they were ripe(成熟的). When so many bright red tomatoes hung on the branches, I would go up to my grandfather and ask, “Can we pick them now?”He enjoyed seeing my sister and I eat the tomatoes. I think th e garden was my grandfather’s way of sharing his blessings wit h those around him. The garden always had more than enough produce for my grandparents and for my family, so he would giv e some to anyone who would accept. He hoped we could pass his generosity to others.As he grew older, I would look after the garden for him. My gr andfather never expected me to do all of it for him, but I could al ways see the pride on his face when everything was complete.81.

Tomor row四、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16小题32分）AIt was the beginning of the school year a few years ago and I h ad a little boy in my class who came from a nonEnglish speakin g home. He was very quiet and shy. I wasn’t sure how much he understood during the school day and I was especially concerned that he just stood by himself at break time and did not play.If I tried to talk to him，he would turn away and tightly shut his eyes to hide from me. After a day or two of this，I decided to seek the help from one of my outgoing and friendly little girls.I called her over and she ran to me，ready to help.I immediately began a long speech about what I needed from h er.I asked her if she would try to get him to play，and I started talking quickly about all these suggestions on how she could start communicating with him. I explained she could d o this，she could do that，she could try this idea，she could try that idea.She touched my arm to stop my talking a nd looked up at me in that wise and special way that only a sixy earold can，and said，“Don’t worry.I speak kid.” And she ran off.I stood there all alone，silently watching her.It took less than a minute for the two new f riends to run off，hand in hand，happily joining a game of tag (捉人游戏) taking place all over the gym.I often think of that small moment，about what I learned and how important it is for all teachers to s peak kid—big kid，little kid and middle kid.I know my focus must be on teaching st udents how to think，how to approach problems，and how to figure out solutions and teaching them never to let t he_opportunity away.We must be ready to learn from our stude nts because those “teachable moments” during the school days are for us，the teachers，as well as our kids.BWhen it comes to feeling better about yourself，nothing will help you like healthy eating.Controlling what you ea t is a big factor (因素) in how you look and feel.If you think about it，so much of how we behave，how we feel，and how our bodies perform is based on what we put into them. The old saying “You Are What You Eat” is actually true.The pro blem is that a lot of mainstream diet books you might find in you r local bookstore or online are trying to sell you diet plans that don’t work and that might even make you sick.Healthy eating is great for your body.It doesn’t take a rocket sci entist to figure that out.Many people don’t realize just how good healthy food is for them.By eating great foods that are natural a nd healthy，you can lose weight.You can also have a lot more energy.So yo u shouldn’t just think of healthy eating as a way to burn fat，but you should also think of it as a way to get your life back in o rder.You can spend more time with your family and get more work d one because you will have more energy.You will be impressed by how much better you’ll feel by putting nutritious，natural foods into your body.Your look will be better.You’ll have more energy，and you’ll be happier.The important thing to remember when it comes to eating healt hy is to not fall for any tricks.There are a lot of people out there l ooking to make quick money.They will tell you just something s o they can sell a book or a video.What you need is to trust a die t plan that is right for your cate yourself about your ow n body type.Find out what kinds of foods are best for you.If the diet book you trust doesn’t teach you these important factors，then you might be reading bad information.55. In the author’s opinion, if you want to feel better about yourself, you should________.A.keep taking exercises every dayB.avoid an unhealthy d ietC. try to lose weightD.make a diet plan56.By saying that “You Are What You Eat” in Paragraph 2，the author means________.A．healthy food is importantB．everyone has to live on food C．not all diet books are good for us D．what we eat provide s more energy than we need57.The natural and healthy eating can NOT________.A．help one lose weightB．burn fat in one’s body C．decrease one’s energyD．make one’s life regularized58.According the passage, a good diet book should be one ___ _____.A. that help you enjoy foodB. that is popular among peo pleC. that helps you choose suitable foodsD. that supplies much information59．The purpose of this passage is to________.A．describe a good diet bookB．teach people how to make diet plansC．list the advantage and disadvantage of eatingD．show the importance of healthy eating and some tricks in e atingCEveryone knows that the French are romantic, the Italians are f ashionable and the Germans are serious. Or do they? Are thes e just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national char acter? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent surv ey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (实业家) in the UK found that 70 percent felt that their efforts were no t appreciated by the British public.Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a culture of jealous y (嫉妒) . As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood”. Jealousy is sometimes known a s the “green-eyed monster” and the UK is its home. Scientists at Warwich U niversity in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a gr oup of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a little, others a great deal. Those giv en a little money were given the chance to destroy the large am ounts of money given to others—but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people test ed agreed to do this.This seems to prove the entrepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflicting evidence. The Organization for Eco nomic Cooperation and Development (OECD) recently reported that the UK was now the world’s fourth largest economy .That i s not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It’s not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Coop er, a Professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their suc cess in a way that seems arrogant (傲慢) or unfair or which separates them from their roots .”Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their ow n efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy t hey complain that nobody loves them. It hardly seems worth foll owing their example. If they were friendlier, people would like th em more. And more people want to be like them.DDo you want to go out of town for a bit of rest and relaxation? Before you start packing, visit these best travel sites for vacatio ners.
