She explained that her husband had come home one night and announced he’d found a cheaper apartment. He’d also gotten a night job.With all that had happened,she’d forgotten to leave a forwarding address.“Here’s$79”she handed him the money.“It’s been paid.”Ben replied.“Paid!”she exclaimed.“Who paid it?”“I did.”Ben replied with a proud grin on his face.听力录音稿Text1M:What are you doing in your nightclothes?It’s only eight o’clock.W:I don’t feel very well.I’m going to have an early night.Text2W:Should I book an afternoon flight for you?M:No.I want to take off right after my ten o’clock appointment.W:Okay.I’ll call right away.Text3W:Well,what will happen if you’re late?M:I could get fired!W:Just forget about the post office,then.Just drive ahead.Text4M:How much did you pay for this latest issue of Fashion?W:I paid＄2.But it was one-third off the regular price.Text5W:How much is it going to cost for the repairs?M:Well,Madam,it looks like you need new brakes and tires,and something is also wrong with the engine.But I won’t know the final cost until our repairmen check everything out.Text6W:I’m telling you,I had nothing to do with whatever happened to your lawn.M:Really?Your dog always runs around wherever he likes,and so do your kids.W:Just because they do that in my yard doesn’t mean you can accuse them of doing something to your property and get away with it!Besides,my husband took the kids and the dog to the mountains last night.M:So where were you this morning?W:For your information,I was at Mrs.Appleton’s house.M:The woman who lives at the end of our street?W:That’s right.We had coffee together.Go over there and ask her yourself if you don’t believe me! M:Well,I guess I owe you an apology.Text7M:Ms.Robertson,for the past three weeks,I have been getting complaints about your work.W:Uh,what do you mean?What kind of complaints?M:Well,your supervisor told me you’re turning your reports in2to3days late,you’re often absent fromstaff meetings,and you haven’t been getting along with your colleagues.W:Look,Mr.Travers,I can explain...M:Ms.Robertson,I know you have been with us for a while now,but this business is changing fast.We need people who can keep up and work as a team.W:Mr.Travers,my mother was just diagnosed with stomach cancer.I’ve been spending all my time outside of work at the hospital with her,and I even had to leave work early because she went into emergency surgery and I had to sign some papers.I’ve been so exhausted,and then Morrison from accounting made a joke the other day about cancer victims losing their hair and...M:Oh...I had no idea,Ms.Robertson.W:I know my work has suffered these past few weeks,but I promise I will make up for it!M:Listen,why don’t you take a couple of days off?It’s much more important that you be with your mother while she is recovering.W:Really,sir?Thank you so much!M:My pleasure.And I’ll have a word with Morrison.That kind of talk has no place in this office!Text8W:I’m so hungry I could eat a horse!M:Um,that doesn’t sound good.W:Ha ha,it’s a figure of speech.It means I’m really hungry.M:Oh,I see.What exactly is a figure of speech?W:A figure of speech is a way to express something using a creative idea or an image.For example,a horse is a really big animal,so if you say you could eat a horse,it’s like saying that you could eat a huge amount of food because you’re so hungry.M:Can you give me another example?W:Sure.If you say,“Money doesn’t grow on trees,”it means that you should spend your money wisely because it is limited.If it grew on trees,like fruit,you could just have more and you wouldn’t need to save it.M:How do you know so much about figures of speech?W:My English teacher taught us a lot of them.He said that being able to use figures of speech is a good way to measure if someone is an advanced English speaker.M:Well,it sounds like you’re doing pretty well in his class!Text9M:So that’s the end of what I had prepared to share with you today.Now,I’d like to open it up for questions.We have about twenty minutes for questions and discussion.I’d be very interested to hear your comments...Yes?W:Yes,thank you for your excellent presentation.I have one question I would like to ask.You said our sales in Asia have been very low in general...I’m wondering what the situation is like in Japan.M:Good question.As I mentioned,Asia is slow overall,and this includes the Japanese market.There is no major difference between Japan and other Asian countries.Does that answer your question?W:Yes,thank you.Another question...Would you care to comment on the cultural impact of multinational companies on local economies?M:I’m afraid that’s outside the focus of my talk.I can talk to you individually about that after this discussion.W:What about our future direction in the Asian market?Can you talk a little about what plans we have? M:I don’t think I’m the right person to answer that question.Perhaps our general manager,Mr.Thomas, can answer that...Text10One day,a man was on his way to work.That morning,he had gotten up a little later than usual,so he had left home in a hurry and hadn’t eaten breakfast.As he was sitting on the bus,he thought about how hungry he was,and he looked down at his shoes...but he didn’t see them on his feet.He was wearing his slippers instead!“Oh,no,”the man said to himself,“I forgot to put on my shoes this morning because I was in such a rush!”He looked at his watch and decided that he did not have enough time to go back home and get his shoes,so he thought about what to tell his boss.He thought and thought,but he couldn’t think of a good excuse to tell his boss.Finally,he decided that the only solution was to buy a pair of shoes at the department store next to his office building.The man ended up spending＄200on anew pair of shoes.He complained to himself on his way to the office,but when he tried to open the front door,he found that it was locked.Then he remembered it was a holiday that day,and everyone had the day off.。

Since March 2012, I’ve done 89 trips of those, 51 have been abroad, I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞) in my little box because I’ve got two ice packs and that’s how long they last, in all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor(捐献者) to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we’ve got 72 hours at most, So I am always conscious of time.I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America. I picked up the stem cells in Providence, Rhode Island, and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London. But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, the lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m really sorry, I’ve got some bad news for you-there are no fights from Washingto n.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said: “In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient-please, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for mere-routed(改道) me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.For this courier job, you’re consciously aware than that box you’re got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Para 1?A．provider B．delivery manC．collector D．medical doctor【2】Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours?A．He cannot stay away from his job too longB．The donor can only wait for that longC．The operation needs that very muchD．The ice won’t last any longer【3】Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?A．To London B．To NewarkC．To Providence D．To Washington3.Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.【1】Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A．To explain what they are.B．To introduce BookCrossing.C．To stress the importance of reading.D．To encourage readers to share their ideas.【2】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?A．The book.B．An adventure.C．A public place.D．The identification number.【3】What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A．Meet other readers to discuss it.B．Pass it on to another reader.C．Keep it safe in his bookcase.D．Mail it back to its owner.【4】What is the best title for the text?A．Online Reading: A Virtual TourB．Electronic Books: A new TrendC．A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD．A Website Links People through Books二、其他Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries.【1】 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.One important biological factor(因素) that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women.【2】 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and the blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.【3】 They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.【4】 Scientists are still not exactly sure how genes influence aging, but they believe they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(倾向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’ s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.【5】A．However, women, on average, live longer.B．The biological factor plays an important part.C．Women are also helped by their female genes.D．The female hormones also protect the body in another way.E. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.F. Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.G. Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.三、完形填空When I was 13 my only purpose was to become the star on our football team.

浙江高二高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解st year, I was on a plane with my friend, waiting for it to take off. The pilot’s voice was heard throughout the plane: “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen. Our engines don’t work. We are going to jump-start them. Once we get them going, we’ll get up in the air and see what happens.”That was all he said. “See what happens? Shouldn’t we have had a better plan than that?” At that point, I could only laugh nervously. One woman started crying: “Oh, no! We are going to crash!” There are sighs ofdespe ration and anxiety, and we hadn’t even taken off yet.The pilot even seemed unhappy. He told us one engine was working double time, and his plan was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air, and what happened? Nothing. We arrived in Norfolk, and no sooner had the wheels touched down than applause burst out as everyone on the airplane breathed a sigh of relief.All too often, people stop achieving their goals just because they don't have a guaranteed result. But success will never be guaranteed. The best thing that you can do is to just get up in the air, and see what happens.If your aim is to build a business, then get up in the air and see what happens! Don't give yourself all the reasons why you can’t. Do not wait until you have everything you need. You never will.If your goal is to start a friendship, say “Hello”, get up in the air and see what happens! The results could be very rewarding. If your goal is to learn a new skill, get up in the air and see what happens! It might not be as difficult as you think. It could be fun!【1】How did the author feel when the pilot said the engines didn’t work?A．Disappointed B．AnxiousC．Curious D．Relieved【2】What can be inferred from the passage?A．The passengers began crying after the plane took off.B．The engines often worked double time to get started.C．The pilot tried to comfort the nervous passengers.D．The passengers reached the destination safe and sound.【3】The underlined sentences in the last paragraph means “______________”.A．think carefully before you make friends.B．start to fly the plane to see what will happen.C．make an effort even if the result is uncertain.D．get up from the chair and greet somebody.【4】What can be the best title for the passage?A．We Will See What HappensB．I Survived An Adventurous FlightC．The Pilot Risked Our LivesD．Making Plans Is Better Than Taking Chances2.We get it: You’re tired. You’re busy. And your shoes are away over there. Excuses are OK sometimes, but not every day—and especially not today. So put on your sneakers, get up off the couch, and let us kick your excuses to the curb (路边).“I…dislike…panting!”Being really out of breath may mean you’re trying too much too soon, which will kill your confidence. But you don’t have to be huffing and puffing to get a workout. Being active doesn't have to mean high-intensity. It’s justabout moving.“I hate exercise.”It may seem unbearable, but you just have to get started. Exercise releases endorphins (your brain’s own feel-good chemicals), which can be habit-forming. What’ s the best exercise? The one you’ll do regularly. So you may hate running. Don’t run! Ride your bike or just dance. Even cleaning your room is active. As long as you’re moving and getting your blood pumping, it counts. So get creative.“I don’t have time.”You may not have lots of time to spare when you’re busy with schoolwork, but we bet you can find 10 minutes. Bonus: An activity break will send oxygen to your brain, making you super-alert and more creative too. Famous thinkers like Aristotle and Steve Jobs liked “walking meetings," and you can follow in their footsteps by moving around while you brainstorm about a tough task or memorize your English vocabulary.“I never see results!”Even if you train with the help of a professional, you won’t see results right away. But you will feel them almost immediately. Don’t focus on how your body look s—focus on how you feel. Keep a journal of when you exercise (or don’t) and how you feel that day: Stressed? Focused? Tired? When you start noticing the amazing effects of exercise, you’ll have no excuses.【1】The underlined part “huffing and puffing” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “_________”.A．moving around B．breathing heavilyC．feeling confident D．wearing nice shoes【2】In the author’s eyes, the best exercise is the one that _________.A．is very relaxing B．you will stick toC．produces good results D．you can spare time on【3】Steve Jobs is mentioned to prove that doing exercise__________.A．is good for one’s figureB．is good for one’s healthC．makes one much happierD．makes one more productive3.Emily and her boyfriend had just had a fight. She felt alone and hopeless. Then she went into the kitchen and grabbed what she needed before going back up to her room quietly. She switched on the TV and started eating…and eating…for hours, until it was all gone.What Emily didn't know at the time was that she was suffering from an illness called binge-eatingdisorder(BED)(暴饮暴食).For years, Emily didn't tell anyone what she was doing. She felt ashamed, alone, and out of control. Why don't famous people confess (承认) to BED, as they do to anorexia? It's simple: There's a stigma（污名）involved. “Overeating is seen as very bad, but dieting to be skinny is seen as positive and even associated with determination," says Charles Sophy, a doctor in Beverly Hills , California."Some parents or friends may look at a teen with BED and think, 'Oh, a good diet and some will-power will do the trick.' But that's not true," says Dr.Ovidio Bermudez , a baby doctor at the Eating Recovery Center in Denver. "Eating disorders are real physical and mental health issues; it's not about willpower." The focus in treating BED shouldn't be on weight, because as with all eating disorders, the behaviors with food are a symptom of something deeper.Like most other diseases, genetics may play a big part in who gets BED and who doesn't. If you have a close relative with an eating disorder, that means you're more likely to develop an eating disorder of your own. Besides, many people with BED have tried at some point or another to control it by going on a diet, but paying more attention to food doesn't help. And it might even make things worse, like it did for Carla, who's 15 now and is recovering from BED. "My parents would always tease me about my weight, so when I was 14, I went on a very restrictive diet," she says. When you can't have something, you only want it more, so every time Carla would have a bite of something that wasn't allowed on her strict diet. She would quickly lose control and binge (狂欢). 【1】What does the underlined word "anorexia" in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Eating too much.B．Eating junk food.C．Loss of the wish to eat.D．Always eating in a hurry.【2】According to Dr. Ovidio Bermudez, people with BED_______ .A．just need a lot of willpowerB．can recover with a good dietC．can recover with the help of othersD．need to deal with their health problems【3】What can we learn from Carla's story?A．BED is an incurable disease.B．BED has something to do with genes.C．Going on a diet won't help BED patients.D．BED patients should pay attention to their food.二、其他Arguments happen in every healthy relationship—we know it sounds contradictory, but it’s true—but they can still have a negative impact if they aren’t handled properly.【1】Take a breath. We know that it can be hard to think clearly when you are angry, so we would first like to encourage you to try to take a second to collect your thoughts before engaging in a dialogue with your partner. 【2】 If you are not careful you could potentially say what might damage your relationship.Take the situation as it is. Even though you are angry and it can be hard to be objective, try to see the situation for what it is. Do not escalate (不断恶化) the argument.【3】 Try to understand the purpose behind the action—if something happened accidentally, you should not treat as if it were done intentionally.【4】 If you have done something wrong, the best possible option for you is to admit it. Denying something only makes it more hurtful and often your partner will be able to forgive you much more quickly if you are honest.Set ground rules. After a fight you and your partner can have a heart-to-heart talk of what happened.【5】 At this point you can set some ground rules for future fights, like not cursing each other or calling each other’s names, which might help reduce the intensity of your fights.Fighting with someone is never easy. And it’s especially difficult when you are arguing with someone that you care about. Thinking carefully and controlling yourself during an argument can help you avoid saying something that could permanently hurt your relationship.A．Take positive action.B．Avoid making excuses.C．Anger can be poisonous.D．Here is how to maintain good relationship.E. You can discuss what hurts each of you and how you can move forward.F. The trick to prevent an argument from destroying your relationship is learning how to fight fair.G.

浙江高二高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.He met her at a party. She was outstanding while he was so normal. After the party, he invited her for coffee. She was surprised but being polite, she agreed.As they sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything and she felt uncomfortable. Suddenly, he asked the waiter, “Could you please give me some salt? I’d like to put it in my coffee. ” Everyone stared at him. He turned red, but when the sal t came, he put it in his coffee and drank. Curious, she asked, “Why salt with coffee? ” He explained, “ When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea. I liked playing on the sea. I could feel the taste of sea, just like this salty coffee. ”That was a really nice talk, also a good beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who met all her demands. Then the story was just like every beautiful love story: they got married and lived a happy life.After 40 years, he passed away and left her a letter which said: My dearest, please forgive my life-long lie. Remember the first time we dated? I was so nervous that I asked for salt instead of sugar. It was hard for me to ask for a change, so I just went ahead. I never thought that could be the start of our conversation. I tried to tell you the truth, but I was afraid that it would ruin everything. I don’t like the salty coffee. But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life just because I love you!Her tears made the lett er totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, “What’s the taste of salty coffee?” She replied, “It’s sweet.”【1】She accepted his invitation after the party because ________.A．she was pretty B．he met all her demandsC．he was humorous D．she was well-mannered【2】How do you understand the last paragraph?A．The taste of salty coffee is special.B．Her husband’s love to her is sweet.C．Her memory about her life is great.D．She is used to the taste of the salty coffee.【3】The best title for this passage is ________.A．The Great Love B．The Salty CoffeeC．A Special Dating D．A Lifelong Lie2.Not only fashion and music are making a return—houses built in 1970s have proven to be better at cutting energy waste than those built today. The “tea cosy (茶壶套)” design, created in the mid-1970s and built in the early 1980s for low-income people, could provide a blueprint for meeting the Government aims of producing less from homes.CO2The 200 houses were designed to provide low-energy housing, and depend on an inner concrete (水泥) structure that holds in heat, protected by highly insulated (隔热的) setting which produces a “tea cosy” effect. The ordinary-looking houses also depend on more windows on south-facing sides, with northerly facing doors protected by porches (门廊).A study found the houses are 50 percent more energy efficient than the average home and use a quarter of the average energy for space heating. According to researchers, they use less than two-thirds of the power of homes built to meet 2010 building demands. And they will still be 25 percent more efficient than houses built to even more strict proposed demands for 2013. The design is one of the few that will be able to meet 2016 demands for zero-carbon homes.They were in the beginning fixed with just one or two gas heaters per home, although most now have central heating, depending on the heat from the sun and high insulation to keep steady temperatures inside the house. To be comfortable, they only need to use heating for three to four months a year, compared with seven months for UK home on average, and can be lived with no heating at all.With many house builders at present worrying that new homes are going to be much more expensive to build inorder to meet the Government’s ambitious targets, the“tea cosy”model meets this need perfectly.【1】The underlined word“blueprint”is closest in meaning to _________.A．photo B．model C．service D．map【2】The writer develops Paragraph 3 mainly by_________.A．analyzing dataB．giving examplesC．presenting reasonsD．making comparisons【3】According to the passage, “tea cosy” houses are better at __________.A．saving heat for energy efficiencyB．producing solar energy at homeC．designing and building materialsD．saving building materials and energy3.One of the Queen’s closest relatives and oldest friends was allowed to give a deep description into the family life of the Royals. Although there have been hundreds of other books declaring to offer a quick look behind the Palace doors, this is the first written by someone who is closely related to the Royal Family and has shared their lives—not only throughout the Queen’s reign (统治) but also through that of her father, King George VI.The Final Curtsey was written by her Majesty’s cousin and childhood playmate the Honorable Margaret Rhodes. It tells in details the story of Mrs. Rhodes’s relationship with the Royal family over eight decades. The book, with delightfully informal and never-before-seen pictures, has been written with the full knowledge of the Queen, who has read and approved parts of it.Born in 1925, the Honorable Margaret Rhodes has led an extraordinary life. She was the childhood playmate of her cousin, the Queen; a wartime M16 spy; and she was a lady-in- waiting (宫女) to her aunt, the Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, from 1991 until the latter’s death in 2002. At the Queen’s 80th birthday in April 2006, Margaret gave an interview to the BBC which she proved that, in her own opinion and despite several false reports, the Queen would not abdicate(退位).In this charming autobiography (自传)，she told how she was offered a house to live in the Royal farm in Windsor Great Park unexpectedly. One day when she and the Queen were out riding outside, she suddenly returned and said, “Could you bear to live in the suburb?” “I think it should be OK.” Therefore Mrs. Rhodes is now still living there.【1】Compared with other books about the Royal Family, the biggest advantage of The Final Curtsey is that_______.A．its author is very famousB．its author knows the Queen wellC．it presents reader a very different QueenD．it has pictures that have never been seen【2】When Mrs. Rhodes was offered to live in the Royal farm, she was _______.A．unhappy B．surprisedC．sad D．disappointed【3】We can learn from Paragraph 3 that Mrs. Rhodes ________.A．has lived quite a long lifeB．was so famous that BBC interviewed herC．has a close relationship with the royal familyD．has been very busy and kept on changing jobs【4】The passage is mainly about________.A．a book about royal familyB．the Queen’s lifeC．the life of Margaret RhodesD．the Queen’s abdication二、其他根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Manhattan High Line is different. Raised 25 feet above the ground, this large metal structure once supported a rail line. The line opened in 1934 to bring trains directly into factories. It was hardly used after the 1960s, and much of it was torn down. However, one part remained in a region of Manhattan called Chelsea. Chelsea was becoming high-class as restaurants, art galleries and apartments were built, but the ugly railway structure remained as a dead weight. Everyone knew that at some time, it would have to be removed.But the High Line was not destroyed. In fact, now the old rail line serves as one of the most peaceful places in the city. It holds an elevated(高架的) park, with beautiful gardens and great views of the city. The idea to turn the rail line into a park came from Joshua David and Robert Hammond. In 1999, they attended a meeting to decide how to deal with the High Line. David and Hammond were the only people at the meeting interested in saving the historical structure. Later on, when they asked railway officials to take them up to look at the High Line, they saw a mile and a half of wild flowers growing in the middle of the city, and they realized that the High Line had potential(潜力) to become a park. There was growing interest in improving city centers, and so the project quickly developed and money for construction was easily collected.The first section of the High Line opened in 2009 and immediately became popular with tourists and locals alike. Each part of the park has a different atmosphere. Some areas are like balconies(阳台) with wonderful city views. Where the rail line goes between buildings, trees are thickly planted. Other sections have wide lawns(草坪) and walkways planted with wild flowers. Only the final section remains the way it has been for the last fifty years. 【1】What is the text mainly about？A．Protection of cultural relics.B．An unlikely place for a park.C．Improving city transport.D．Closing a train line.【2】The underlined part “a dead weight” (Paragraph 1) means__________.A．something with potential to be betterB．something with historical interestC．something useless which slows progressD．something which is a danger to people【3】Why did David and Hammond originally want to save the High Line?A．They thought it had historical value.B．They thought it would make a good park.C．They wanted to reopen the train line.D．They were interested in improving the city.【4】Why were people easily persuaded by David and Hammond’s idea?A．They wanted to see the wild flowers too.B．They realized the High Line was historically important.C．They wanted to make cities nicer places.D．They knew the project would bring in much money.【5】What can we learn about the High Line from the text?A．It was designed by David and Hammond.B．It began to be popular in the 1960s.C．Trains still use the line.D．Only part of the line remains.四、信息匹配任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn’t o ften work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children. One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification（资格证）if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part –time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.【1】What is the author’s present job?A．Working part-time in a college.B．Taking care of children for a family.C．Helping children with their schoolwork.D．Looking after children at a kindergarten.【2】When staying with the two girls’ family, the author ___________.A．was paid for extra workB．often worked long hoursC．got much help form her bossD．took a day off every other week【3】Why did the author leave her first job?A．She found a full-time job.B．She was fed up with children.C．She decided to attend a part-time course.D．She needed a test after working extra hours.【4】What has the author learned from her own experiences?A．Less successful students can still have a career.B．Qualifications are necessary for a career.C．Hard work makes an excellent student.D．One must choose the job she likes.

People know little about Kenya, but they know of Treetops. When King George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops, and when she came down from there, “She succeeded him as the que en of the country”.The hotel is in the middle of the forest, and it shows the pleasure of Africa. When you visit it, you will be sent into the heart of the forest by hotel buses, and then a guide, with a gun to protect you against big game, will go with you to the Treetops. Before and after dinner, for the whole night if you wish, you can sit on the corridor(走廊), watching animals come to the water pool. The earliest hotel Treetops was built round a large tree on the opposite side of the water, but that was destroyed by fire and the new hotel Treetops, which is built round several trees, is much bigger.The dining room at Treetops is small, and the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests, so a clever “railway service” has been invented. Guests take their f ood as it passes slowly in front of them, along a line in the center of the table.There are many animals around the Treetops. When you visit them, you can see:---Animals and their babies are waiting to greet the guests.---Animals, enjoying the Treetops pool in the daylight.---A long bodied, long ring tailed very active cat-like animal is a special one coming out at night. He hunts and eats anything he can catch and is very destructive. He lives in the trees at Treetops. He comes for his food every evening. Do not get too near to him, as his teeth and claws（爪）can do you harm. These animals can be trained and become lovely pets.【1】The underlined word “succeeded” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_________”.A．did what she was trying to doB．gained her purposeC．replaced someone in an important positionD．completed an easy task【2】According to the third paragraph, “railway service” actually refers to __________.A．the service provided at the railway stationB．the supply of food on the trainC．the service provided along the railwayD．the supply of food along a moving line【3】Which of the following statements about “the cat-like animal” is WRONG?A．It comes for food only at night.B．It lives in the trees at Treetops.C．Its teeth and claws can do people harm.D．It can catch any other animal in the forest.【4】We can learn from the text that the guests _________.A．will be protected by a guide in the forestB．can play with the cat-like animalsC．can have parties in the dinning roomD．could not sit on the corridor at night4.Fear is an emotion like others such as happiness, anger, hurt and sadness. We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond. Being afraid of fast cars, for example, is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media. Many normal fears during the early years, like men with beards, or large dogs, disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.Children’s fears are often trivial, but that do esn’t mean they should be ignored. They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.Research shows that as a child grows up, the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce, a teacher who “shouted at me”, people with guns, bullies, big boys, or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.We can not always prevent these experiences from happening, but it’s essential t hat children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions, fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with.【1】The underlined word “trivial” in the third paragraph probably means “_______”.A．small B．serious C．harmful D．common【2】From the passage we can learn that ________.A．some childhood fears may have a lasting influenceB．children should avoid the media to reduce their fearC．fears can be judged according to the environmentD．children with similar fears can communicate easily【3】What’s the best title for this passage?A．How to Overcome Children’s FearsB．Children’s FearsC．The kind of Children’s FearsD．The Bad Effects of Fears四、单词拼写请根据首字母或中文写出符合题意的单词或词组；注意正确形式，若有误概不给分。

浙江高二高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.Kate Hashimoto was picking up a few groceries at the Upper West Side Food Emporium when she ran into a friend. “Hey Kate, do you like wraps? Here’s a chicken wrap,’’ her pal said. “But be careful, it’s kind of wet.” They weren’t in the food store. They wer e in front of the store, digging through three overflowing trash bins. Hashimoto Dumpster-dives(拾荒) for all her food, doesn’t use toilet paper or do laundry, and hasn’t bought makeups in 10 years. She doesn’t have to live this way —she’s an employed CPA(注册会计师). “I’ve always been money-saving, but it was when I was fired that I became extreme,” Hashimoto explained.“No job is guaranteed, so I live as if I could be fired at any time.”Manhattan, she said, is a gold mine for dumpster divers.“Consumers in wealt hy areas expect their products to be perfect, so upscale stores throw out a lot of items that are still good.“New York can be the most expensive place to live, but it can also be the least expensive if you know how to work the system.”Hashimoto let the reporter of a newspaper spend a day with her learning how to work the system. She lives in Harlem, where she bought a studio in 2010 and paid it off in nine months, but walks down to the Upper West Side three times a week for good, free food. Her other money-saving methods include using soap to wash herself after using the toilet, taking surveys online to earn gift cards, participating in medical trials, testing products for free samples, cutting her own hair, washing her clothes while she showers, and running to work to avoid using subway. “I was very angry about the latest round of subway fare rises,” she said.Hashimoto does have her limits. Her furniture is a collection of found free gifts—but she won’t take an old mattress for fear of bedbugs, and sleeps instead on used yoga mats. And she won’t stay in a relationship with a boyfriend for free meals.“I’ve been in a relationship where I stayed because I was getting free gifts, but I got out of it,” she says. “It’s better to be single and dumpster-diving tha n to be with someone you can’t stand.”【1】The author mentions Kate’s friend at the beginning to ______.A．show there are too many dumpster diversB．introduce the topic of the textC．show they have the same lifestyleD．show the close relationship between them【2】The underlined word “upscale”(in Para.3) is closest in meaning to_______.A．large B．high-class C．faraway D．comfortable【3】How does the author develop the fourth paragraph?A. Offering the sufferings of Kate.B. Making comparisons.B. Discussing the high living cost in New York.D. Providing details of Kate’s daily life.2.Welcome. You have just entered the largest online museum on the Internet. A work in progress, steadily expanding with thousands of high quality images of the greatest paintings and sculpture in history, the Art Renewal Center is building an encyclopedic collection of essays, biographies and articles by top scholars in the field.ARC is the Eye of the Storm, at the core, hub and center of a major cultural shift in the art world. With a growing body of experts, we are setting standards to become ARC Approved for artists, art schools, systems of training, museum exhibitions and historical scholarship, to bring guidance, direction, goals and reality to an art establishment that has been sailing rudderless(无领导者的) for nearly a hundred years.Additionally, the Art Renewal Center is a non-profit educational organization committed to refreshing standards of craftsmanship and excellence. Only by gaining a full command of the skills of the past masters can we create the masters of tomorrow. This is a step forward for our culture. Experimentation and creativity can only succeed and prosper(使……繁荣) when built on a solid foundation of past accomplishments, with the tools which can make artists realize their visions.Nothing has been more restricting(有限制的) and weakening than the theories of modernism, which got rid of these tools, along with the skills to employ them. We are providing a forum for artists, scholars, collectors and the p ublic to appreciate great art, and to recognize that they’re not alone in their doubts about the emptiness of modern and postmodern art. These doubts are fully justified by the overwhelming(压倒的) body of evidence and historical facts.【1】Where does this passage come from?A newspaper of art B. A textbookC. A magazineD. A website【2】What can we infer from the 2nd paragraph?A．ARC has brought guidance, direction for art schools, systems of training.B．ARC is the Eye of the Storm of the art and museum.C．Some arts establishment have been aimless for nearly a century.D．ARC has employed many experts for their exhibition.【3】 How shall we do to produce tomorrow experts?A．To lay a solid foundation for the tomorrow masters.B．To make refreshing standards of craftsmanship and excellence.C．To obtain a good knowledge of the past experts’ skills.D．To accept the non-profit educational organization.【4】What’s the purpose of the forum for artists, scholars, collectors and the public?A．To get the information of great arts all over the world.B．To help evaluate great arts and encourage to develop modern arts.C．To show the doubts of the public and resist the exhibition.D．To offer enough room to complain about what they are dissatisfied with.二、其他Chinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against Malaria（疟疾）. This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China.Tu shared the prize with Irish-born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who were honored for their revolutionary anti-roundworm treatment. 84-year-old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rate of malaria, reducing patients’ suffering and promoting mankind’s health. Although she received several medical awards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recognizes Tu’s dedication and perseverance in discovering artemisinin（青蒿素）,the key drug that battles malaria-friendly parasites(寄生虫).However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional. She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, but she doesn’t have a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being called the “three-noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas. No wonder her success has stirred China’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists.The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all. One can become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research. There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve much during their whole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu’s record-breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success. Science is never about instant success. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get.【1】 The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to become a scientist is the onewith__________.A．a sense of national prideB．enthusiasm for scientific researchC．a desire to achieve successD．rich academic knowledge【2】It can be concluded from the text that __________.A．Tu worked homeland and abroad to conduct her researchB．Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti-roundworm treatmentC．Her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut Malaria death rateD．The Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her work【3】In writing the passage, the author intends to ___________.A．praise the award winner and encourage scientific researchB．discourage the pursuit of instant success in scienceC．remind readers of the principles of scientific researchD．inform readers of the news and make comments三、其他根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

More than two-thirds of Argentine bank savings were in US dollars. The country’s recession (衰退)，which is in its fourth year, has left a third of Argentine’s 36 million people in poverty.A few angry people took the streets on January 21, beating pots and pans in protest. And a group of unemployed Argentines demanding jobs blocked a major highway into Argentina’s capital city, Buenos Aires.Argentines fear they could lose up to half the dollar value of their savings. Some on the street said the country’s fifth president in the past month has already failed them.After three weeks in power, President Eduardo Duhalde has broken his first and biggest promise. He said he would return people’s savings in the currency in which were deposited(开户). Duhalde aims to make exports more competitive. But this is expected to have a serious effect on ordinary families, for the simple reason that in Argentine, 80 percent of loans and mortgages(抵押) are in dollars. The government froze all the bank savings made in dollars, worth US$45 billion in total to stop a run on banks. This cause huge street protest earlier this month and contributed to the downfall of two governments. “Most of my life savings were just taken away from me, “ said Jose, a 38-year-old citizen. “I was going to move to Italy but now I can’t because my money is trapped here. Argentina is like a prison.”The government loosened the new banking rules a little bit on January 17. However, people still don’t have free access to their bank account. They are only allowed to take out rapidly devaluing pesos, even though their savings are in US dollars.The banking controls will remain in place for about three months, with a few exceptions for the elderly or people with sever illnesses who need crash.56.

A failure to understand different customs lead to misunderstanding.A common example of this clash occurs in China when Westerners complain that the Chinese are noisy and impolite, and feel uneasy with the questions: "Where are you from?" "Where do you work?" "How much do you earn?" "Are you married?" One Westerner has described this question and answer process as a "Laowai (foreigner) Litany." It's not surprising that foreigners in China who are not familiar with Chinese culture would be shocked by the questions and might feel that Chinese were meddling in their affairs.Why do Chinese and Westerners have opposite behaviour in public and in society? Cultural differences partly explain this. Chinese culture is founded on collectivism. Instead of considering themselves individuals, Chinese are, above all, members of a community. They identify more with employees of the company, citizens of the country, husbands or wives, or fathers. They are used to thinking of groups. With this community spirit, it's not uncommon to approach others with questions. So, "Where are you from?" could mean "I'm interested in you and ready to be your friend;" "How much money do you earn?" could mean "If you don't earn enough to feed yourself, I'm happy to invite you to share my rice porridge;" and "Are you married?" could mean "If you're still single, I'll help you find a girlfriend."For Chinese, asking a stranger questions is a normal way to show sympathy and to invite someone to have a friendly conversation. Chinese on a 10-hour train ride would be considered impolite or even arrogant if they refused to ask or answer questions. That is why a Chinese train ride is always happy and animated for Chinese, but can be noisy for a European.Western culture is based on individualism. A Westerner sees himself or herself both as an individual and member of a community. Thus any insistence on communicating through questions might be considered annoying. In Europe, a person on a 10-hour train ride, will be considered polite if he or she wants to keep silent for the whole journey. This is also why train rides in Europe are agreeably quiet for Europeans, but possible painful for Chinese.There seems to be fundamentally nothing wrong with being interested in strangers, depending on the circumstances, but either asking questions or not asking questions could prove indelicate. Whoever you are, be relaxed and polite no matter whether you get intrusive questions or a perfunctory hello.66. Which is wrong about the above four questions in paragraph 2 ?The Chinese use them to show their sympathy.The Westerners will be shocked at these questionsThey are often asked to open a conversation by Chinese people.They imply the spirit of individualism.67. According to the passage, all the following shows the culture differences between we Chinese and the Westerns except_________________.the Chinese consider themselves to be members of a community while the Westerns don’twestern culture is founded on individualismy our questions will annoy a Westerner if he/she doesn’t want to communicatetrain journey in Western countries are often quiet but noisy in China68.

The main idea of the passage is probably_____________________.A.we shouldn’t ask the Westerners the four questionsB.culture differences may lead to misunderstandingC.it’s wrong to be interested in strangersD.asking a stranger questions is a normal way to show sympathy四、其他第二节: 任务型阅读（共5小题，每题1分，共5分）阅读下列材料, 从所给的六个选项(A,B,C,D,E和 F)中, 选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑. 选项中有一项是多余选项.______ 71.

So he pulled up in front her Mercedes and got out.Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt.He said, “I am here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened, had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were many people who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.【1】This story most probably took place_______.A．in a garage B．on a highway C．in a busy street D．near a gas station 【2】When the man approached the old lady, the first thing he did was to______.A．ask what was wrong with her carB．get the old lady out of her carC．change her tire as soon as possibleD．make her know he wanted to help her【3】The underlined part in Paragraph 6 suggests that________.A．the old lady had got ready to pay the manB．the old lady was grateful to the manC．the man had a lot of difficulty changing the tireD．the man didn’t stop changing the tire【4】Which of the following words can best describe the man?A．Warm-hearted and sensitive.B．Careful and serious.C．Thoughtful and helpful.D．Generous and open-minded.【5】It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______________.A．the man was happy after helping the old ladyB．the man received a lot of money from the old ladyC．the man made the old lady feel cold and depressedD．the man felt extremely frustrated all the way home2.【1】Probably most injuries happen to skaters’ wrists because ________.

But it is getting rare nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? Safety is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off picking up hitchhikers. That no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester no doubt reflects the safety fear: a large, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.But the reason may be more complex: hitchhiking happens where peop le don’t have cars and transport services are poor. Plenty of people still hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they afford cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. T he people who picked me up were very interesting-lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes in red,spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers. org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out(actually, I didn’t do much of that, preferring just to hold up my destination sign) and people-wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people-will stop.In the UK, with it s cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it. But having enjoyed it so much, I’m ready now to do a big trip across Europe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it woul d be to have another go, though Afghanistan might be a challenge. I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.【1】The author tried to hitchhike but was rejected by single women drivers because_____________ .A．they were not heading towards ManchesterB．they thought most hitchhikers were dangerousC．hitchhiking had been forbidden and they didn’t want to break the lawD．he was a strong man in strange clothes who seemed dangerous【2】Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．That some people refuse hitchhikers may reflect the safety fear.B．Car ownership levels are lower in Romania than in the UK.C．40% of UK people don’t have access to cars.D．Increased car ownership has reduced the need for hitchhiking.【3】The “fat blokes in red, spotted scarves” in Paragraph 3 most likely means .A．murderous hitchhikersB．friendly and talkative hitchhikersC．typical hitchhikersD．strange hitchhikers like the author【4】According to the author, future hitchhikers are more likely to .A．visit websites and find people to share cars withB．stand by roads with their thumbs sticking outC．stick out signs with their destinations written onD．wait for some kind people to pick them up【5】From the last paragraph, we know that the author .A．frequently hitchhikes in BritainB．plans to hitchhike across EuropeC．thinks public transport is safer for travelD．is going to contact the tank commander四、信息匹配education is offered to make people able to enlarge and interpret their experience as adults. Adults may want to study something which they missed in earlier schooling, get new skills or job training, find out about new technological developments, seek better self—understanding, or develop new talents and skills.【2】This kind of education may be in the form of self-study with proper guidance through the use of libraries, correspondence courses, or broadcasting. It may also be acquired collectively in schools and colleges, study groups, workshops, clubs, and professional associations.【3】Modern adult education for large numbers of people started in the 18th and 19th centuries with the rise of the Industrial Revolution. Great economic and social changes were taking place: people were moving from rural areas to cities; new types of work were being created in an expanding factory system. These and other factors produced a need for further education and re-education of adults.【4】The earliest programs of organized adult education arose in Great Britain in the 1790s, with the founding of an adult school in Nottingham and a mechanics’ institute in Glasgow. The ear liest adult education institution in the United States was founded by Benjamin Franklin and some friends in Philadelphia in 1727.【5】People recognize that continued learning is necessary for most forms of employment today. For example, parts of the adult population in many countries find it necessary to take part in retraining programs at work or even to learn completely new jobs. Adult education programs are springing up constantly to meet these and other needs.五、短文改错下面短文中有10处语言错误。
