It seems like a crazy idea from a horror But it could happen in the near future.Canadian biophysicist Andrew Pelling used an apple to grow a human ear. He think fruitand vegetables can be used to cheaply repair human body parts in the future.Scientists have been trying to grow organs( 器官 ) in labs to replace our old ones. But it is a hard job.For example, liver cells (肝细胞) can grow in a lab, but he cells still need things like blood vessels (血管) to actually things have to grow inside a scaffold( In the past, scientists have used man-made materials, animals parts and even dead peopleas scaffolds. But that has proved to be difficult and expensive.Pelling and his team, however, f ound the apple to be a cheap and easy-to-use scaffold. They first cut an apple into the shape of an ear. Then they used a special way to take outthe apple ’s cell and make it a scaffold. The team then added human cells to the apple, andwatched it grow.“You can implant these scaffolds into the body, and the body will send in cells and ablood supply and actually keep these thi ngs alive,” Pelling said during a Ted Talk speech.The team put the apple scaffold inside a living mouse and the mouse’s cells slowly took over the pieces of apple.Now Pelling is thinking of other fruit, plants or vegetables to use.He says that the shape of flower petals could be perfect for repairing skin. Andasparagus( 芦笋 ) could fix a broken spine(脊柱).Now, Pelling and his team are trying hard to put these crazy ideas into reality.48.

AAll over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.Many people like to watch others play games. They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when "their" player or team wins.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for(参加) them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China, Egypt or Italy! And think of people in cold countries. Think how many love to skate or ski in Japan, Norway or Canada.Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Water-skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person’s character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace(胜不骄，败不馁).1．Why do some people get excited when they watch a game?A. Because they win the game.B. Because they get the good news.C. Because their favourite team wins.D. Because they can’t help themselves.2．Which of the sports has a long history?A. Water-skiing.B.

During her month-long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived j ust above the café, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary—General of the United Nations (UN).Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting. It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack(背包) and asked Emma to write her name and address inside. When he returned to California, he left the book behind in Montreal, and his friend Alex kept it. When Alex later moved to Jerusalem, he took the book along.4．Alex lent Emma the book, Markings, .A．to show his friendliness to herB．to show his interest in readingC．to tell her about the importance of the UND．to let her write her name and address inside5．How did Emma feel the moment she opened the book?A．Pleased. B. Satisfied C. Worried. D．Surprised.6．We can learn from the text that the Californian .A．met Emma at a concert B．invited Emma to a concertC．introduced Emma to his friend D．left Emma his backpack7．Who was supposed to be the first owner of the book?A．An official of the UN. B．A coffee shop owner.C．A friend of the author’s.D．Alex’s friend from California.CIf Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles（蜡烛）. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past twenty years, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes(孔子学院) in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and we ll.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the west, even if his birthday is.8．The opening paragraph is mainly intended to______.A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the topicC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations9．We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students______.A. have a great interest in studying ChineseB. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese examsD. fight for a chance to learn Chinese10．What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC. Old Thinker with a Big FutureD. Chinese Culture for Westerners11．The passage is likely to appear in a _______.A. leafletB. history paperC. newspaperD. philosophy textbookDAfter the examination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s wors e, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.In my room, Mom’s voice compete d with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious gift from a mother to her child.12．Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?A. They all wanted to have a good rest.B. The author didn’t do well in the exam.C. What the doctor said made them worried.D. They focused on the scenery along the road13．How did the author manage to get high marks?A. By being confidentB. By listening carefully.C. By getting help from his classmates.D. By reading as many books as possible.14．We can learn from the text that .A. the author’s sight recovered finallyB. reading made the author more sensitiveC. the author’s mother didn’t work to look after himD. reading made the author not worry about his sight15．Which of the following could be the title of the text?A. My eyesight troubleB. An unforgettable experienceC. With ears wide openD. About Mother’s love第二节（共5题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care a bout Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past twenty years, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes(孔子学院) in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the west, even if his birthday is.8．The opening paragraph is mainly intended to______.A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the topicC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations9．We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students______.A. have a great interest in studying ChineseB. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese examsD. fight for a chance to learn Chinese10．What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC. Old Thinker with a Big FutureD. Chinese Culture for Westerners11．The passage is likely to appear in a _______.A. leafletB. history paperC. newspaperD. philosophy textbookDAfter the examination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s worse, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids donow. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.In my room, Mom’s voice competed with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious gift from a mother to her child.12．Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?A. They all wanted to have a good rest.B. The author didn’t do well in the exam.C. What the doctor said made them worried.D. They focused on the scenery along the road13．How did the author manage to get high marks?A. By being confidentB. By listening carefully.C. By getting help from his classmates.D. By reading as many books as possible.14．We can learn from the text that .A. the author’s sight recovered finallyB. reading made the author more sensitiveC. the author’s mother didn’t work to look after himD. reading made the author not worry about his sight15．Which of the following could be the title of the text?A. My eyesight troubleB. An unforgettable experienceC. With ears wide openD. About Mother’s love第二节（共5题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

第二学期高一英语文理分科考试阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AThe sound of the rain hitting the windows wakes me up and it sounds just exactly as it did 15 years ago, which reminded me of my girlhood.It was my second day of school and it was raining heavily. I could not resist the habit I had at home, so I fell asleep right at my desk. I woke up to find myself not in the classroom but carried on Dad’s back. We were halfway home. It was the last time I felt close t o him.After that, he never carried me or hugged me as other fathers did to their children.I was not bothered much by this thought. I was proud of it, for I felt independent and “grown up.” However, there were times when I felt depressed by not having so ught comfort from him.One day, I was writing Chinese characters as homework. I hated doing this more than anything. Dad came and stood behind me for a moment, watching me scratching the paper. Then he said, “This kind of writing needs patience. Your writi ng is not strong enough. Press harder.”I follow his advice for the next two words, but as I could see little improvement, I followed my own method----the fast way. His advice did not improve my writing but our relationship. As I grew older, I found out that he had finished his schooling in Grade 6, which was the highest grade in the town then, so he was considered to be a scholar. People used to ask him to write something to put on the walls, but he never felt very useful.He often said to me, “As you can see, this family is going to count on you. We are useless to improve you anything for your future.You have to get an education to change the life for yourself.” As a result of his expectation, I have made it through high s chool and through college.21. Ho w did the author first react to father’s suggestion?A. She found it hard to accept.B. She was confused about it.C. She accepted it.D. She doubted it.22. Why did the author feel depressed sometimes?A. She found her father never carried her.B. Her father never hugged her as other fathers did to their children.C. She was bothered much by the thought that her father never cared her.D. She never sought comfort from her father.23. We can infer from the passage that the author’s fa ther______.A. is helpful to improving the author for her future.B. attaches great importance to education.C. pushes the author tightly.D. received little education.24. What was the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. to introduce her father.B. to demonstrate people her attitude toward life.C. to encourage people to follow their fathers’ suggestions.D. to show what matters to her personal development.25. Why were many fans of classical music disappointed with MP3 downloads?A. Because classical music was difficult to reach.B. Because there were no resources to download.C. Because the quality of the music was poor.D. Because MP3 downloads were not affordable.26. Passionato chose to launch in the UK because______.a. The UK has the largest number of classical music loversb. It promotes the trade between the UK and other European countriesc. it has a good atmosphere for classical musicd. It gets financial support for its developmentA. a, bB. a, cC. b, cD. c, d27.What's the mai n driving force for Passionato?A. Helping other record labels.B. Reducing the cost of the music downloads.C. Boosting the classical music industry.D. Promoting classical music all over the world.28. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Classical Download Store LaunchesB. Classical Music in the UKC. Future of Classical Music DistributionD. James Glicker and His passionatoBClassical music lovers in the UK will now be able to download their favorite works from the web, thanks to a new store launched today.Passionato is providing the world's biggest collection of high-quality classical downloads, first in the UK and later worldwide. The company says m ore than 18, 000 recordings are available. Many fans of classical music have previously avoided MP3 downloads for disappointing quality.Passionato's founder is James Glicker, a former president of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. He said although it did its early research in the U. S.. It chose to launch in the UK."First, the UK and Europe have an incredibly active classical music scene in terms of concert attendance, record labels (唱片公司) and journalism though the U. S. is the biggest single country in terms of actual classical music sales. Second, setting up Passionato in the UK is to take advantage of the financial support that was being offered to us," he said."Online music stores have typically offered Mp3s at 128kbps, which is fine for Pop music but it's not exactly high-fidelity (高忠实性).”Passionato will face competition from established online classical music stores as well as from large download stores which have some classical works in their catalogues.Mr. Glicker said he hoped Passionato would boost the classical music industry."It's a major motivation for us," he said. "While classical music concert attendance is on the rise, labels are reducing their recordings and sellers are shutting down like there's no tomorrow. So the future of classical music distribution is online."The BPI, the UK's recorded music industry association, issued a statement welcoming the launch. Visitors to the Passionato online store can listen to 60-second samples before deciding whether to buy a track (一首歌曲). A free music player and organizer is also available for download. As part of the launch, anyone registering at Passionato, com can claim 10 free pre-selected tracks.29．The underlined phrase in the first paragraph most probably means .A．clever remarks（言论）B．silly remarksC．exciting remarks D．disappointed remarks30．The second paragraph mainly tells us .A．every part of body is replaced with age B．hairs will grow weak but not die C．skin becomes wrinkled with age D．every part of body ages with age 31．From the passage we can infer that .A．stress causing gray hair is still in questionB．gray hair has nothing to do with tension．C．stressful situations can be of benefit．D．sound evidence has been found．32．What might play the most important role in the graying process?A．Genetics and the amount of sleeping timeB．The amount of food people eat and living environmentC．The amount of pigment and geneticsD．Genetics and the amount of water people drinkCDoes stress cause gray hair? Many people believe that tension and stress can cause your hair to lose its color．In fact，it is an old wives tale that being upset all the time can result in premature graying．Here is a closer look at this situation and why some believe that this old wives tale could be true．As one ages，the hairs on the head also age．In fact，just about everything on the human body begins to show signs of wear and tear after a while．The joints wear and become stiff and skin wears and becomes wrinkled．Hairs on the head grow and eventually die．They are replaced，but in the process something else happens．When new hairs are replaced，the color or pigment(色素)is also added to them．However，as one ages，this pigment becomes less and less available．At first，hairs will have a limited amount of pigment and they will appear to be grayish in color．In time，they will lose all of their pigment and will be white．Many things are known to cause graying．and genetics is a very powerful factor．If one of your parents turns gray at an early age，there is a good chance that you will too．Some people begin the graying process in high school，while others may be over the age of forty．Constant worry and tension can have many harmful effects on the human body．It is aknown fact that stressful times can cause one to suffer hair loss．It would make sense that if it can cause these problems，perhaps it also may contribute to graying．However，there is no sound evidence to support this．On the other hand，many medical professionals believe that there may be a link：between graying and a constant state of anxiety or tension．Does stress cause gray hair? There is no scientific evidence to support the theory，but it is best to avoid stressful situations．33.What was the average weight for American men two decades ago?A. 210. 7 lbs.B. 195. 7 lbs.C. 180. 7 lbs.D. 152. 3 lbs.34.How did the researchers present their study findings?A.

高一年级第二学期开学考试英语试题（考试时间：100分钟试卷满分：120分）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）AWhere can you find a nice place to relax on holiday for both you and your children? Well, I suggest you try the beautiful and green Isle of Wight (IOW). The Isle of Wight is one of the main tourist attractions. Here is some information on a few of the attractions on the IOW.Dinosaur IsleIt is located in Sandown, a seaside town on the southeast coast. It's a large, lovely museum, both fun and educational. Here you can see a large fossil collection of all kinds of dinosaurs, as well as a gift shop. You can walk into the past and then the future, learning about the history and the development of the civilization of dinosaurs that lived 120 million years ago.Robin Hill Country ParkThe park is in the beautiful countryside, and is suitable for children's parties and games. It has five new gardens, and offers great opportunities to see and take pictures of the rare red squirrels.The West of the WightHere we have the Marine Aquarium, the Archaeology Exhibition and the Model Railway. They offer another opportunity to combine fun with learning. This is a great place to see ancient boats crossing the narrow strait between the island and the mainland.The Wight Bus MuseumThis museum is run completely by unpaid volunteers. It has a bus collection stored in what was once a warehouse(仓库). Most of the buses in the museum date back to around the 1910's.With all of these choices, what are you waiting for? IOW Tourism welcomes you!1 In Robin Hill Country Park,children can NOT______.A．have parties B．buy gifts C．play games. D.take pictures.2 It can be learned from the passage that ____.A．those running the Wight Bus Museum work for freeB．on Dinosaur Isle we can learn about all kinds of animalsC．there are five new gardens on Dinosaur IsleD．the Wight Bus Museum can be visited free of charge3. The purpose of this passage is to ____.A．show the development of tourism on the IOWB．tell readers what is worth visitingC．attract readers to come to the IOWD．advise readers how to relax on holidays4. You can read this article in a ______.A．travel magazine B．science journalC．book review D．film advertisementBIn the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal. This sometimes happenswith humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every daywhen people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I havediscovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, bur sometimes I feel sad because those whoappear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don't get to see this soft side of others often, wetry every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only whenwe stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that's in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowlythan usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning(按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty foreyears of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, "I have a problem here. I am weak and doingthe best I can." And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn'tget around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited,knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way. But those areand far between. More often, it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when we feel weak orpretend that we are brave when we are scared.5 The author feels sad sometimes because _____.A. he has a soft heartB. he relies much on othersC. some people pretend to be kindD. some people fail to see the kindness in others6 What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A. They speed up to pass.B. They waited with patience.C. They tried their best to help.D. They put on their flashlights too.7 In this passage, the author advises us to _____.A. handle problems by ourselvesB. accept help from othersC. admit our weaknessD. show our bravery8 Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Wheelchair Experience.B. Weakness and Kindness.C. Weakness and Strength.D. A Driving Experience.CKeeping a busy social life among lots of friends may keep people thinner than spending hours doing some exercises, according to scientists. They say that socializing and meeting with friends help increase levels of brown fat in the body which burns calories to produce heat.Living in an exciting social environment was found to reduce fat in mice's belly by half over four weeks, even if they ate more. US researchers say that social excitement aids weight loss by turning white fat into brown. White fat stores calories and makes us fatter, while brown burns energy to produce heat. Turning white fat into brown is extremely difficult, normally requiring long- term stay in cold conditions or exciting part of the body's nervous system.However, scientists from Ohio State University now think that having a busy social life is an even more effective way of changing white fat into brown. The team came up with their theory by studying the effects of various living environments on mice. Those, who lived alongside a greater number of mice, had more space and toys to excite themselves and then lost far more weight over the course of the study than their “couch potato" fellows.Study author, Dr Matthew During, whose team's findings appear in the journal Cell Metabolism, said, "I'm still amazed at the degree of fat loss that occurs." Explaining how new technology had threatened face-to-face socializing, he added, "It's not just a sedentary(久坐的) lifestyle and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social activities." Co-author Dr Lei Cao said，"Loneliness is a potential factor for cancer and death; it's equal to cigarette smoking to a certain extent. Social activities are very vital.9 What information can we get from the first two paragraphs?A．Brown fat stores calories and makes us fatterB．It doesn't take long to turn white fat into brown.C．Social excitement helps gain more weightD．Brown fat can burn energy to produce heat.10 Which of the following statement does the text support?A．Levels of brown fat can be increased by socializing.B．The mice lacking social life lose more weight.C．The research findings haven't been published so far.D．Dr Matthew During wasn't convinced of the result.11. We can conclude from the text that _______.A．the fat in mice's belly was reduced because of the relaxing environment B．a sedentary lifestyle and high calories foods influence people's social lifeC．surfing the Internet may influence people's face-to-face communication D．cancer and death are mainly caused for lack of social lifeDAmericans Spend Their Free Time In Various Ways.America is a country of sports—of hunting，fishing and swimming，and of team sports like baseball and football．Millions of Americans watch their favorite sports on television．They also like to play in community orchestras(管弦乐队)，make their own films or recordings，go camping，visit museums，attend lectures，travel，garden，read，and join in hundreds of other activities．The people also enjoy building things for their homes，sewing their own clothes，even making their own photographs．They do these things for fun as well as for economy．But as much as Americans enjoy their free time，the country is at the same time a“self-improvement” country．More than 25 million adults continue their education，chiefly by going to school in the evening， during their own free time，at their own expense．Added to the time spent on personal activities，Americans a1so devote a great amount of their time to the varied needs of their communities．Many hospitals，schools，libraries，museums，parks，community centers，and organizations that assist the poor depend on the many hours citizens devote to these activities，often without any pay. Why do they do it?There are several answers．The idea of cooperating and sharing responsibility with one another for the benefit of all is as old as the country itself．When the country was first founded in 1776，it was necessary for the settlers to work together to live．They had crossed dangerous seas and risked all they had in their struggle for political and religious freedom．There remains among many Americans a distrust of central government．People still prefer to do things themselves within their communities，rather than give the government more control．Sometimes people offer their time because they wish to accomplish something for which no money is paid，to do something that will be of benefit to the entire community．It is true that some people use their leisure because they are truly interested in the work；or they are learning from the experience．No matter what the reason is，hundreds of thousands of so-called12.

Many of our TV programs come to us through satellites．Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location．We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another．They are usually 35，880 kilometers above the equator 〔赤道〕．Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place ．This is because it is moving around the world at 11，000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates．A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae(天线)facing the earth．Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit〔轨道〕，So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position．This usually happens about every five or six days．Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth．A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years．Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired．Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time．This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash〔撞〕into each other．29．Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?A．Sending information for weather forecast．B．Taking photographs of the Earth．C．Sending TV pictures．D．Providing food for airplane pilots．30．What’s the speed the earth rotates at?A．35,880 kilometers per hour．B．335,880 kilometers per hour．C．11,000 kilometers per hour．D．110,000 kilometers per hour31．Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?A．In order to take photographs．B．In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit．C．In order to move away from its orbit．D．In order to send television pictures．32．What does the underlined word “This〞 in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A．A satellite． B．A little rocket．C．A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky．D．The satellite puts the rockets in the right position．DIn our daily life,friends are needed. Everyone likes feeling close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh, and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we will feel lonely if we never have a friend.No two people are just the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will make up and go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we call them and write to them. It could be that we would even see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men or women who have been friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There’s more good news for people who have friends. They live longer than people who don’t. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. If someone cares about you, you will feel good.33．The first paragraph tells us .A. making friends is a need in people’s lifeB. we always need friends around usC. what the feeling of having no friends isD. we need to be alone in our life34．Which of the following places people name after their friendly people is NOT mentioned (提到) in the passage?A. A town.B. A room.C. A school.D. Alibrary.35．Why do people who have friends live longer?A. They feel happier and healthier.B. They know more about friendship.C. They take less care of themselves.D.

Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted tohelp. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighbo rhood will be back, even stronger than before.”4. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found______.A. some friends had lost their livesB. her neighborhood was destroyedC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering5. According to paragraph4, who inspired Natalie most?A. The people helping Rockaway rebuildB. The people trapped in high rise buildingC. The volunteers donating money to survivorsD. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people6. How did Natalie help the survivors?A. She gave her toys to the kidsB. She took care of younger childrenC. She called on the White House to helpD. She built an information sharing platform7. What does the story intend to tell us?A. Little people can make a big differenceB.A friend in need is a friend indeedC. East or West, home is bestD. Technology is powerCWealth starts with a goal saving a dollar at a time. Call it the piggy bankstrategy(策略). There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container.Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps. I f you wished to climba 12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only have to climb33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip in10 years for a special occasion, to collect the $15,000 cost, you have to save $3.93a day. If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a savings account at 1% interest rate after-tax, you will have your trip money.When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that, if I wanted something, I should save money to buy it. We associate piggy banks with children, but in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth. Around the world, many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year’s Day brings good luck and financial success. Ah, but you have to put something in it.Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving? Why not an elephant bank, which is bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle Ages, before modern banking and credit instruments, people saved money at home, a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or dish. Potters(制陶工) made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay(黏土) called “pygg,” and folks saved coins in pygg jars.The Middle English word for pig was “pigge”. While the Saxons pronounced pygg, referring to the clay, as “pug”, eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation, sounding the “i” as in p ig or piggy. As the word became less associated with the orange clay and more with the animal, a clever potter fashioned a pygg jar in the shape of a pig, delighting children and adults. The piggy bank was born.Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money, bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings. While piggy banks teach children the wisdom of saving, adults often need to relearn childhood lessons. Think about the things in life that require large amounts of money--- college education, weddings, cars, medical care, starting a business, buying a home, and fun stuff like great trips. So when you have money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and invest wisely.8. What is the piggy bank strategy?A. Paying 1% income tax at a time.B. Setting a goal before making a travel plan.C. Aiming high even when doing small things.D. Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.9. Why did the writer’s parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?A. To delight him with the latest fashion.B. To encourage him to climb mountains.C. To help him form the habit of saving.D. To teach him English pronunciation.10. What does then underlined word “something”(Para. 3) most probably refer to?A. MoneyB. GiftsC. Financial successD. Good luck11. The last paragraph talks about ________.A. the seriousness of educating childrenB. the enjoyment of taking a great tripC. the importance of managing moneyD. the difficulty of starting a businessDTransparent（透明的） animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much, Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent objectdoesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it ----you see the things behind it.To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t abs orb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials----skin, fat, and more----and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see—through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-lie(果冻状的)material and spread themselves over it .Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how they’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a non-transparent milky white.12. According to Paragraph 1, transparent animals_______.A. stay in groupsB. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep oceanD. are beautiful creatures13. The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means__________.A. silentlyB. graduallyC. regularlyD. completely14. One way for an animal to become transparent is to ________.A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter light.C. avoid the absorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light.15. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals________.A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreading第二节（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。

内蒙古2022-2023学年高一下学期期末英语试卷一、阅读理解Nowadays more and more people like to travel, especially when vacations come.A great number of people rush out of their homes or companies to travelling spots. They either drive or take a bus, a train, a ship and so on. Some even ride bikes.However, there is another way of travelling-poorism. People have a tour in the poorest areas of the world. Some people may take a one-day poorest tour, and some even pay to stay in very poor neighborhoods to experience the lowest living standards in the world. Poorism tours take place around the world, and not just in the third world countries. You can, for instance, tour New York neighborhoods in the Bronx, in the Bund of Shanghai. Such tours can take people into the heart of poor areas within some large and rich cities.

One of the most widely used location services is Google Maps. When someone uses Google Maps, information about times and locations is recorded and stored.Google also uses tracking tools with other services. Weather apps, for example, are designed to identify a user’s location to provide local weather information. Even some Google Internet searches can result in the collection of information about exactly where a person was when the search was made.Google says it collects the data to improve users’ localized experiences. But such practices have also raised privacy concerns. Privacy activists have called on Google and other major technology companies to make it easier for users to turn off location services if they do not want to be tracked. In some ways, Google is clear about asking permission to use location information. For instance, Google Maps will seek approval from a user to give the app access to locations. If a user agrees to let Google collect location information over time, Google Maps will show this history in a “timeline” that shows the person’s daily movements.Google also has a “Location History” setting. The company says any user can turn off Location History at any time. And when Location History is turnedoff for a user’s account, it is turned off for all equipment linked to that Google account. But the AP (Associated Press) found this does not appear to be true, finding that Google continued to save location history even if a user had turned off Location History.Google states users can stop the saving of all location markers by turning off another setting, however, which is not clearly identified as being connected to location tracking. The setting is called “Web and App Activity”. It stores different kinds of information from Google apps and websites to a user’s Google account.9．Why does the author mention Weather apps?A．To advise people to stop using them.B．To stress Google services are widely used.C．To prove Google collects users’ data illegally.D．To show many apps can track a user’s location.10．What is the voice from the privacy activists?A．Users should use the Internet less.B．Google should stop tracking users.C．Google should respect users’ privacy.D．Google should turn off location services.11．What does the author indicate in paragraph 4?A．The Location History setting is difficult to find.B．The AP asks Google to remove Location History.C．Turning off Location History can avoid being tracked.D．What Google announces is hardly consistent with the fact.12．Which can best summarize the passage?A．Using Google puts you into a dangerous state.B．Google services urgently need to get improved.C．Google still tracks you with Location History off.D．Web and App Activity has endangered people’s life.Live with roommates? Have friends and family around you? Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone aroundyou will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.So here is my advice: Lead by action.13．What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph?A．Share an apartment with you.
