命题人:周文富 满分:100分 时量:90分钟一、选择题(每小题4分,共48分。
1-8为单项选择,9-12为多项选择)1.电场线分布如图昕示,电场中a ,b 两点的电场强度大小分别为已知a E 和b E ,电势分别为a ϕ和b ϕ,则A .a b E E >,a b ϕϕ>B .a b E E >,a b ϕϕ<C .a b E E <,a b ϕϕ>D .a bE E <,a b ϕϕ<【答案】C 【解析】试题分析:根据电场线疏密表示电场强度大小,E a <E b ;根据沿电场线电势降低,φa >φb ,故C 正确,ABD 错误。
考点:电场线、电场强度、电势【名师点睛】此题是对电场强度及电场线电势问题的考查;要知道电场线的疏密反映电场强度的大小,电场线的切线方向表示场强的方向;一条电场线是不能反映电场线的疏密的;电场强度和电势两者之间无直接关系,故电势高的点场强不一定大,电势为零的点场强不一定为零;电势降落陡度最大的方向是场强的方向.2.如图所示,在xOy 平面内有一个以O 为圆心,半径R =0.1m 的圆,P 为圆周上的一点,O 、P 两点连线与x 轴正方向的夹角为θ。
若空间存在沿y 轴负方向的匀强电场,场强大小E =100V/m ,则O 、P 两点的电势差可表示为A .U OP =-10sin θ(V )B .U OP =10sin θ(V )C .U OP =-10cos θ(V )D .U OP =10cos θ(V ) 【答案】A 【解析】试题分析:在匀强电场中,根据电势差与场强关系公式:U=Ed ,而d 是沿场强方向上的距离,所以d OP =R •sin θ,所以:U Op =-100×0.1sin θ=-10sin θ(V ),故A 正确。
所以选项A 正确。
考点:匀强电场、电场强度与电势差的关系【名师点睛】此题考查了匀强电场中电场强度与电势差的关系;要知道电场线与等势面是垂直的关系,顺着电场线电势降低,电场强度与电势差之间的关系满足UE d=;一定要注意明确公式中d 的准确含义,d 是沿电场线方向的距离,故可以将实际距离向电场线方向作投影;这些都是基本的知识,解题时经常用到,需熟练掌握.3.水平放置的平行板电容器与一电池相连,在电容器的两板间有一带正电的质点处于静止平衡状态。

So far the people I have showed the pictures and video of my jump to have looked at me with doubtful and 36 looks to say the least. Most have not really had the nerve to say it to my face but I read it in their expressions that they all think I am crazy, especially those that know me well. You see if you know me, then you also know I have always had three great 37 . First of all, I have a fear of any large area of 38 . I have never learned how to swim and some of my worst nightmares are of me drowning. Also, I have a fear of all creatures other than humans. Animals and insects 39 me, from the largest of animals to the smallest and probably least harmful of them. The third one is the fear of heights. Even standing on tables will make me 40 .So now the big question is how I allowed myself to be tied to a rope and jump down a hundred and eleven meters? My only answer was I was tired of being 41 by my own fear. I wanted to 42 myself. And so I jumped. And yes, I won’t lie to you. Firstly it felt like I had made the biggest 43 of my life and I wouldn’t come back up safely, but then that feeling was quickly replaced by a freedom I could never manage to put in words. During the walk back up from the bottom of the bridge to the top where I had 44 , I didn’t walk with my head raised high. Instead, I 45 bravely looking down at those rails(扶手) and for once in my life not being afraid of what I saw beneath me.My jump taught me a life lesson. Life shouldn’t be easy because a(n) 46 life doesn’t help you encourage you to want more and fight for it. If you are just willing to take the leap(跳跃), you might just 47 strength in you that you might not have found otherwise.36. A. funny B. worried C. interesting D. upset37.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AMy mother once was a follower of traditional methods when it came to anything. She cooked traditional food, liked dressing up traditionally and thus was fond of traditional way of shopping. She loved going to the market and going from one shop to another to find out what suited her best. She could walk miles when it came toshopping along with her friends. She was familiar with all the local markets and shops and by now knows very well where she can get best discounts and material. However, now she begins to feel her age and gets tired when she goes out in the market. So one day I decided to introduce a new shop to her, a shop that is much bigger than her usual markets and where she gets better discounts. Yes, I am talking about the online gift stores. She has basic knowledge of computers and can operate a laptop. Initially (起初) she was doubtful about shopping from these online gift shops and wasn’t too sure about the quality of the products.One fine day I decided to get some branded things for her first so that she could build trust in these shops. I ordered a Timex watch for her along with a Sisley handbag. She never bought things online but when they were delivered as a gift, she jumped for joy. She could not believe that I had ordered these gifts for her despite her being not very positive about online shops. However, after she saw both the products, she believed that these online gift shops would send the promised brand and products. She loved her new watch and the handbag.After this incident she ordered a gift for her friend’s wedding anniversary. She chose a gift basket that could be made to her requirements. They sent a beautifully decorated basket with fine wines and chocolates. The basket was so carefully decorated that it immediately became her friend’s favorite gift. Since then my mother has been often shopping online.56. From the first paragraph, we learn that the author’s mother________.A. is kind and very humorousB. always leads a poor lifeC. lived in a traditional wayD. really hated shopping very much57. Why did the author decide to introduce a new shop to his mother?A. The new shop is very big and special.B. She wants to get best discounts from the new shop.C. She is too old to go to the market as before.D. The goods in the new shop are very cheap.58. What was the author’s mother’s attitude to online shopping at first?A. She thought it was convenient.B. She doubted the quality of online goods.C. She thought online goods were cheap.D. She thought online goods were second-hand.59. The author bought his mother some branded things to _________.A. change her way of lifeB. make her happy in late lifeC. make her believe in online shoppingD. give her a surprise on Mother’s Day60. We can learn form this passage that _________.A. the author’s mother likes going shopping aloneB. the Timex watch and the Sisley handbag are poor qualityC. the author’s mother is fond of chatting online nowD. the author’s mother was satisfied with the gift basketBMore and more Americans are showing an interest in healthy and locally-produced food, as the interest increases, raising chickens has been gaining popularity in some American cities."Look, we get three eggs this time."Collecting eggs is a daily pleasure for the Hurst family. Naomi Hurst says her family started to raise chickens in back of their home in Maryland a month ago. "We have been wanting to try having backyard chickens for a couple of years now. And really just didn't have the time to build my own coop ( 鸡笼,鸡舍) and look out where to buy chickens. And then we met Rent a Coop," said Naomi Hurst.Rent a Coop is a chicken rental business. Tyler Phillips launched the company with a partner 18 months ago. "It comes with a mobile coop on wheels, two egg laying hens, feed, bedding, water bowl, feeding bowl, and our 24-hour chicken hot line. You can call with any questions. The price is 185 dollars for four weeks," said Phillips.After the four weeks are passed, individual can extend the rental agreement, return everything, or purchase the animals and supplies.Tyler Phillips designs and makes the coops, buildings with birds are kept. He says he wants to do as little damage as possible to the environment."We always try to have as many recycled materials as possible. And I want the coops to be safe for kids. I want the chickens to be comfortable and they have access to the grass while being inside the coop. I want it to be easily movable, light weight," he said.Some cities require people have large pieces of land, if they want to raise farm animals. Others require an agreement with neighbors, limit the number of chickens, or, even ban the birds.Tyler Phillips expects that would change as interest in small poultry(家禽) coops grows."I see cities around the D.C. area changing laws almost monthly and differentcities will change the law to being pro-chicken(赞成养鸡). That is happening all around the United States," he said.He believes that there will be chicken rental businesses in most American cities within five years.61. According to the passage, people raise chickens probably to _____.A. save the living costB. reduce farmer’s burdenC. get safe and healthy foodD. solve the employment problems62. The Hurst family used to have trouble in _______.A. building the coops and buying the chickensB. building a website for raising chickensC. finding some place to raise the chickenD. persuading the neighbors to accept the chickens63. We can learn form the passage that______.A. you can enjoy the Rent a Coop service after 18 monthsB. you can pay for keeping the supplies and the chickens for everC. you can search online for any questions related to raising chickensD. you can pay 185dollars a week for renting things to raise the chickens64. Tyler Phillips designed and made the coops ______.A. based on the government’s supporting policyB. to help advertise the healthy and local foodC. to meet his neighbors’ need of raising chickensD. based on the environmentally friendly concept65. Tyler Phillips believes that the chicken rental business______.A. might be a total failureB. could have a bright futureC. might be right for everyoneD. might be challenged by the natural disastersCIf you need to relax and want to head overseas, you can think of these four off-peak (淡季) travel destinations (目的地) to visit in 2012.PortugalWith rich culture and history, Portugal continues to be one of the most affordable European destinations.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.A professor of environmental health and his students began studying the idea of rooftop gardening for cities. “I think vertical farming is an idea that can work in a big way.” said Despommier.Why would we wa nt to build skyscrapers filled with vegetables when we’ve been farming on the ground for 10,000 years? Because as the world’s population grows — from 6.8 billion now to as much as 9 billion by 2050 — we could run out of productive soil and water. Most of the population growth will occur in cities that can’t easily feed themselves. And the fact that modern agriculture and everything associated with it —chemical fertilizers and transportation full of carbon —is a significant contributor to climate change, a nd suddenly vertical farming doesn’t seem so magic one in the sky.“Vertical farming could allow food to be grown locally and sustainably.” says Glen Kertz, CEO of Valcent. The result saves space — vital in urban areas--- and allows farmers to irrigate and fertilize with far less waste.At Valcent’s El Paso lab, crops grow in rows on conveyor belts. Moving themgives the plants the precise amount of light and nutrients needed, letting them grow 15 times as much vegetable as on a normal farm with 5% of the water that traditional agriculture does.Dedspommier plans to build a 30-story, city-block-size vertical farm that would have transparent walls to maximize sunlight and would produce enough food for 50,000 people. But it would cost hundreds of millions to build a full-scale skyscraper farm. That’s the main drawback: construction and energy costs would probably make vertically raised food more costly than traditional crops.Section B (10 marks)Directions:Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Several years ago, Austin Gutwein paid a visit to Africa. He had a boy pen friend in Africa who helped him realize that he had more than most kids did in Africa. In Africa, many people have an illness that spreads like wildfire called AIDS. There is no cure for AIDS. Many kids in Africa lose their parents because of AIDS and become orphans(孤儿).This 13-year-old boy decided to do something to help. He started to raise money for the orphans. He raised $3,000 to help, but he knew that wouldn’t be enough. So when Austin was 14 years old, he started an organization called Hoops of Hope. Austin decided to build a school. He went around the US and encouraged the kids there to raise money, so he could give the money they raised to help build a school in Africa for orphans.This is something that he loves to do. His great determination has encouraged people all around the US to help the kids in Africa. With efforts, they succeeded in building the school for the kids there. The school was used as an orphanage(孤儿院), housing 450students and teachers.Hoops of Hope’s next goal was to raise $150,000 and build a medical testing lab in Sinazongwe, Zambia. Not only did members in Hoops of Hope raise enough money to fund(提供资金) the building of the lab, but they also supplied the lab with 1,000 medical equipment.Everyone should be educated, cared for and loved. Austin Gutwein gives these children a feeling of happiness and joy that they will never forget. Austin Gutwein has set a good example to today’s teenagers.81.Why do many kids in Africa become orphans?

They are, of course, all Americans. And according to a survey by social networking site baidu. com, they all best illustrate(举例说明) the word “cool”.But just what does it mean to say someone is “cool”? Most would answer that it is something to do with being independent-minded and not following the crowd.Yale University art professor Robert Farris Thompson says that the term “cool” goes back to 15th century West African philosophy. “Cool” relates to ideas of grace under pressure. “In Africa,” he writes, “coolness is a positive quality which combines calmness, silence, and life.”The modern idea of “cool” developed largely in the US in the period after World War II. “Post -war …cool‟ was in part an expression of war-weariness (厌战情绪), . . . it went against the strict social rules of the time,” write sociologists Dick Pountain and David Robins in Cool Rules: Anatomy of an Attitude.试卷第2页,共12页But it was the American actor James Dean who became the symbol for “cool” in the hugely successful 1955 movie Rebel without a Cause. Dean plays a tough guy who disobeys his parents and the authorities. He always gets the girl, smokes cigarettes, wears a leather jacket and beats up bullies. In the movie, Dean showed what “cool” would mean to American young people for the next 60 years.Today the focus of “cool” has changed to athletics (体育运动) stars. Often in movies about schools, students gain popularity on the athletics field more than in the classroom. This can be seen quite clearly in movies like Varsity Blues and John Tucker Must Die.But many teenagers also think being smart is cool.

湖南省浏阳市第一中学2016-2017学年高二上学期入学考试语文试题时量:120分钟;总分:150分一、论述类阅读(选择题每小题3分,共9分)中国先秦诸子有一句老话:“人尽其能,地尽其利。
”“人尽其能”就是彻底的人道主义,“地尽其利”就是彻底的自然主义。
不过这句中国老话没有揭示人与自然的统一和互相因依,只表达了对太平盛世的一种朴素的愿望。
马克思却不仅揭示了人与自然的统一,而且替共产主义奠定了一个稳实的哲学基础,实际上也替美学和艺术奠定了一个马克思主义的哲学基础。
就是在讨论人与自然的统一时,马克思提出了“美的规律”,我们不妨细心研究一下马克思的原话:通过实践来创造一个对象世界,即对有机自然界进行加工改造,就证实了人是一种存在。
……动物固然也生产,它替自己营巢造窝,例如蜜蜂、海狸和蚂蚁之类。
但是动物只制造它自己及其后代直接需要的东西,它们只片面地生产,而人却全面地生产;动物只有在肉体直接需要的支配之下才生产,而人却在不受肉体需要的支配时也生产,而且只有在不受肉体需要的支配时,人才真正地生产;动物只生产动物,而人却再生产整个自然界;动物的产品直接联系到它的肉体,而人却自由地对待他的产品。
动物只按照它所属的那个物种的标准和需要去制造,而人却知道怎样按照每个物种的标准来生产,而且知道怎样到处把本身固有的标准运用到对象上来制造,因此,人还按照美的规律来制造。
从这段重要文献可以看出以下几点:一、精神生产和物质生产的一致性。
人通过劳动实践对自然加工改造,创造出一个对象世界。
这条原则既适用于工农业的物质生产,也适用于包括文艺在内的精神生产。
这两种生产都既要根据自然,又要对自然加工改造,这就肯定了文艺的现实主义,排除了文艺流派中的自然主义。
二、人不同于动物在于人有自意识(即自觉性)。
他意识到自己就是人类一个成员,而且根据这种认识来生产。
动物只在受肉体直接需要的支配之下片面地生产,人却是根据人类的深远需要全面地自由地生产。

AOne of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).On September11th.1958. Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying. "I promised you a gift, and here it is. " What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. 1 told it over and over how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying", which sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. "Don’t expect any pre sents this year." Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. "If your baby brother lives, that'll be Christmas enough." As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I'd never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say. "What? He's all right?" He hung up and shouted upstairs. "The hospital said we can bring Richard home!" "Thank God.'" I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. Idownstairs. My sacks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!21.what happened to the author on September 11 1958 ?A. He got a baby brotherB. He got a Christmas giftC. He became four years oldD.

According to the passage, tourists are recommended to use a multilingual guide recorder when visiting _________.A. Tian’anmen SquareB. Temple of HeavenC. Forbidden CityD. Summer PalaceBMy parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn't know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend's house. Though I knew I wouldn't tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting ou t of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I'd stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”“What is it?” I asked.“To talk, you and I” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we're going to do with ourselves now that we're in the situation we are in.”“But we can't do anything about it. Grandpa,” I said, surprise d that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.And that's how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life — from how fast things change to how they sometimes don't change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be. Suddenly, the lights al l came back on. “Well,” he said, “I guess that means you'll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”25. I wished to get out of the house because __________.A. I was eager to have fun with my best friendB. I found nobody to share my feelings withC. I wanted to escape from the dark houseD. I planned to tell my friend about my trouble26. Grandpa was happy to see me because __________.A. he could discuss the problem with meB. he had not seen me for a long limeC. he was afraid of darknessD. he felt quite lonely27. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The grandchild was eager to leave.B. They would have more chats.C. The lights would go out again.D. It would no longer be dark.CYou get anxious if there’s no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you’re not there. All these can be called “always on” stress caused by smart phone addiction.For some people, smart phones have set them free from the nine-to-five work. Flexible working has given them more control over their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families. For many others though, smart phones have become cruel masters in their pockets, never allowing them to turn them off and relax.Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his family and friends in favor of his iPhone. So he developed an app — Moment — to monitor his usage. The app enables users to see how much time they’re spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken. “Moment’s goal is to promote bala nce in your life,” his website explains. “Some time on your phone, some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you.”Dr. Christine Grant, an occupational psychologist at Coventry University, said, “The effects of this ‘always on’ cultur e are that your mind is never resting, and you’re not giving your body time to recover, so you’re always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. Physical and mental health can suffer.”And as the number of connected smart phones is increasing, so is the amount of data.
