She appeared on a hillside as he was coming down the mountain, followed by two other children, carrying large bundles(捆) of straw on their backs. Intrigued by the sight, Chen raised his camera to take a picture of the three —but it was then that he noticed the sleeves of the girl in red blowing in the wind. He approached and touched the girl's sleeves, only to discover there were no arms inside.After returning home and reviewing his photographs, Chen decided he had to find the girl again. Chen finally found the girl one year later. He learned that she touched an exposed electrical wire when she was only 4 and had to have both her arms amputated. It was then that an idea occurred to him —hand in his pictures of Xiang to the World Press Photo Contest, which offers a 10,000 euro ($11,080) top prize. From 2003 to 2013, Chen visited the family and took photos of Xiang every year. He entered the contest every year, but every time he failed to win the top prize. That was until December last year, when his pictures caught the attention of journalists at a photo exhibition. After the photos were published online in June, 2016, they were viewed more than 100 million times and attracted more than 80,000 comments.

One example is ＂clicktivism＂, a compound of ＂click＂and ＂activism＂. It refers to ＂armchair activists＂— people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And ＂otherize＂is a verb for ＂other＂that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves — whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, ＂fitspiration＂— a compound of fit and inspiration —refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase ＂climate refugee＂— someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people's concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. ＂People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,＂he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.（1）What is the article mainly about?A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B. The application of new words and phrases.C. How a language mirrors the changing world.D. The impact of social media on our language.（2）The underlined word ＂coin＂in the second-to-last paragraph probably means .A. useB. recordC. changeD. create（3）How is the article mainly written?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline.D. By presenting research findings.（4）According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should .A. be easy to rememberB. have unique meaningsC. reflect the changing worldD. be meaningful, expressive and catchyBA glass a day keeps obesity at bay. Wine has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.A scientist for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Proper drinking may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain.” An official organization reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that present data do not clearly show if proper drinking increases weight.Boston University's Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the reasons relating alcohol (酒精) to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects (效果) of proper drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes (糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very fat people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.The group says alcohol provides energy that is quickly absorbed into the body and is not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking drinking patterns into consideration.For now there is little evidence that drinking small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one's risk of becoming too fat. What's more, a study three years ago suggested that a chemical found in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells.（1）Who is the passage intended for?A. Those who sell alcohol.B. Those who produce wine.C. Those who have a drinking habit.D. Those who wish to quit drinking.（2）What does the ph rase “in moderation” in the first paragraph refer to?A. Excitedly.B. Carefully.C. Properly.D. Frequently.（3）What can we learn from the passage?A. A chemical found in grapes increases the risk of becoming fat.B. The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are clear.C. Present data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.D. The research found proper drinking has a strong protective effect.（4）What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. How to do some easy experiments.B. How to make wine in a healthy way.C. How to prove the finding mentioned above.D. How to reduce the calories contained in wine.三、改错题假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

AIt was a cold March day in High Point, North Carolina. The girls on the Wesleyan Academy softball team were waiting for their next turns at bat during practice, stamping their feet to stay warm, Eighth-grader Taylor Bisbee shivered(发抖) a little as she watched her teammate Paris White play. The two didn’t know each other well — Taylor had just moved to town a month or so before.Suddenly, Paris fell to the ground. “Paris’s eyes rolled back,” Taylor says. “She started shaking. I knew it was an emergency.”It certainly was. Paris had suffered a sudden heart failure. Without immediate medical care, Paris would die. At first, no one moved. The girls were in shock. Then the softball coach shouted out, “Does anyone know CPR?”CPR is a life-saving technique. To do CPR, you press on the sick person’s chest so that blood moves through the body and takes oxygen to organs. Without oxygen the brain is damaged quickly.Amazingly, Taylor had just taken a CPR course the day before. Still, she hesitated. She didn’t think she knew it well enough. But when no one else came forward, Taylor ran to Paris and began doing CPR. “It was scary. I knew it was the difference between life and death,” says Taylor.Taylor’s swift action helped her teammates calm down. One girl called 911. Two more ran to get the school nurse, who brought a defibrillator, an electronic devices(器械) that can shock the heart back into work. Luck stayed with them: Paris’heartbeat returned.“I know I was really lucky,”Paris says now. “Most people don’t survive this. My team saved my life.”Experts say Paris is right: For a sudden heart failure, the single best chance for survival is having someone nearby step in and do CPR quickly.Today, Paris is back on the softball team. Taylor will apply to college soon. She wants to be a nurse. “I feel more confident in my actions now,” Taylor says. “I know I can act under pressure in a scary situation.”1. What happened to Paris on a March day?A. She caught a bad cold.B. She had a sudden heart problem.C. She was knocked down by a ball.D. She shivered terribly during practice2. Why does Paris say she was lucky?A. She made a worthy friend.B. She recovered from shock.C. She received immediate CPR.D. She came back on the softball team.3.

Subscribers of TOKNOW would get .A. free birthday presentsB. full refund within 28 daysC. membership of the TOKNOW clubD. chances to meet the experts in personCThis month, Germany’s transport minister, Alexander Dobrindt, proposed the first set of rules for autonomous vehicles(自主驾驶车辆). They would define the driver’s role in such cars and govern how such cars perform in crashes where lives might be lost.The proposal attempts to deal with what some call the “death valley” of autonomous vehicles: the grey area between semi-autonomous and fully driverless cars that could delay the driverless future.Dobrindt wants three things: that a car always chooses property(财产) damage over personal injury; that it never distinguishes between humans based on age or race; and that if a human removes his or her hands from the driving wheel —to check email, say — the car’s maker is responsible if there is a crash.“The change to the road traffic law will permit fully automatic driving,”says Dobrindt. It will put fully driverless cars on an equal legal footing to human drivers, he says.Who is responsible for the operation of such vehicles is not clear among car makers, consumers and lawyers. “The liability(法律责任) issue is the biggest one of them all,” says Natasha Merat at the University of Leeds, UK.An assumption behind UK insurance for driverless cars, introduced earlier this year, insists that a human “be watchful and monitoring the road”at every moment.But that is not what many people have in mind when thinking of driverless cars. “When you say ‘driverless cars’, people expect driverless cars, ”Merat says. “You know — no driver.”Because of the confusion, Merat thinks some car makers will wait until vehicles can be fully automated without human operation.Driverless cars may end up being a form of public transport rather than vehiclesyou own, says Ryan Calo at Stanford University, California. That is happening in the UK and Singapore, where government-provided driverless vehicles are being launched.That would go down poorly in the US, however. “The idea that the government would take over driverless cars and treat them as a public good would get absolutely nowhere here,” says Calo.8. What does the phrase “death valley” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A place where cars often break down.B. A case where passing a law is impossible.C. An area where no driving is permitted.D. A situation where drivers’ role is not clear.9. The proposal put forward by Dobrindt aims to __________.A. stop people from breaking traffic rulesB. help promote fully automatic drivingC. protect drivers of all ages and racesD. prevent serious property damage10. What do consumers think of the operation of driverless cars?A. It should get the attention of insurance companies.B. It should be the main concern of law makers.C. It should not cause deadly traffic accidents.D. It should involve no human responsibility.11. Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in __________.A. SingaporeB. the UKC. the USD. Germany12. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Autonomous Driving: Whose Liability?B. Fully Automatic Cars: A New BreakthroughC. Autonomous Vehicles: Driver Removed!D. Driverless Cars: Root of Road AccidentsDI read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”. The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink(洗碗池) as an example. There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.”I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate. You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.13. While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to ___________.A. keep ourselves busyB. get absent-mindedC. grow anxiousD. stay focused14. What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain.15. What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.B. It doesn’t always bring the desired result.C. It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait.D. It doesn’t give people faith and hope.16. What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?A. Take it seriously.B. Don’t rely on others.C. Do something else.D. Don’t lose heart.17. The author supports his view by _________.A. exploring various causes of “waits”.B. describing detailed processes of “waits”.C. analyzing different categories of “waits”D. revealing frustrating consequences of “waits”二、七选五（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高中英语Unit2TheUnitedKingdom专项测试同步训练2020.031, The Isle of Wight is a small island off the south coast of England. It is one of the most popular holiday destination (预定地点；目的地) in Britain; in 1980 about 8,000,000 people stayed there and another 6,000,000 went there on “day trips”.Not many foreign tourists know about the island. Most of the visitors are British people who go there for their summer holidays. The Isle Wight is only 23 miles long and 13 miles from north to south, but the towns and villages are all very different, and they offer a good many holidays. It is also one of the hottest places in Britain.It is very simple to get to the island from London. Trains leave London every hour during the summer. Two and a half hours later, you arrive at Portsmouth, where you walk 15 meters to the ferry (渡口). Half an hour after that, you are standing on the island.A return fare from London to the Isle of Wight will cost about ￡10.1. Which of the following is the cloest in meaning to the passage?

The flag showed the country to which the ship belonged. The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain. Australia’s flag has the Union Jack in the top left -hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross. They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain. Australia’s flag is the same color as the Union Jack - red, white and blue. The act of joining together is called a “union”. The Union Jack was the name of the flag made when England, Scotland and Ireland joined together to make one country.It all began in 1707, when England and Scotland joined together to become one nation. A flag was made using two crosses - one for the patron saint of each country, which means protector. Many centuries before, the English had taken St. George as their patronsaint. His emblem was a red cross on a white background. The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew. In memory of him, they used a white cross on a blue background. This cross was shaped like the letter “X”. The new flag was a mixture of both flags with two sets of crosses.When Ireland joined England and Scotland in 1800, another cross was added. St Parick’s cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”. All three flags now made up the Union Jack.1. The Union Jack is the flag of __________.A. the United NationsB. IrelandC. England and ScotlandD. Great Britain2. It is because _______ that Australia has the Union Jack in the top left-hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross.A. the Union Jack was named when England, Scotland and Ireland joined togetherB. people from Britain brought the flag of Great Britain to AustraliaC. people from Britain settled in Australia firstD. the flag of Great Britain is colourful3.
