B．The Opera House.C．Harbour Bridge. D．Taipei 101.2．Which of the following places is almost lighted throughout the year?A．Sydney. B．Taipei.C．Cape Town. D．Las Vegas.3．Where would you be most likely to find the text?A．On a website. B．On a notice board.C．In a company brochure. D．In a college newspaper.I have a story about raising free-range (自由放养) kids. This past Columbus Day, my husband and I went fishing with some friends on their boat while our10 and 8-year-old kids were in school. We left the house all at the same time, about 7 a. m. My children walked to and from school every day and we knew they would be OK for a couple hours by themselves anyway. We told them to go home after school and we would be home around 4 p. m.We live on the Gulf Coast, and since it was a beautiful day, all of the adults decided to go fishing off-shore. At around 2 p. m. after a good harvest from the sea, we started back to the shore and unfortunately after some time, we ran out of gas. We were out of cellphone service, and what was even worse was that 911 wasn’t working. We didn’t have a radio either. Therefore, we were stuck waiting for someone to pass by. We were out there until 10 p. m. All the while my children were at home, expecting us to return shortly after they got home. At about 7 p. m. , when it was getting dark, my 10-year-old daughter thought something might be wrong so she walked to each house on the street until someone answered the door and asked the person what they should do. This was how we were finally found by the game warden (管理员) on the coast and “rescued”.Talking with that neighbor the next day, I was never so proud of my children. This neighbour explained to me, “What calmness both of your childre n showed when explaining the situation and how impressed I was with your children seeking help, even though they didn’t know me.” I never doubted him for a minute, though next time we go fishing we’ll monitor the gas more carefully.4．What did the author probably feel at the very start of returning to the shore? A．Anxious. B．Frightened.C．Pleased. D．Disappointed.5．Why couldn’t the parents call their children when going back to the shore?A．They didn’t carry a radio.B．Their boat was out of gas.C．They believed in their children. D．There was no phone signal there. 6．What was the author’s reaction to his neighbor’s words?A．He thanked his neighbor. B．He was not surprised.C．He didn’t agree with his neighbor.D．He needed to think for himself. 7．What is the best title for the text?A．Stuck on the Sea B．A Brave GirlC．A Thrilling Experience D．Lost at SeaPainkillers (止痛药) are turning out to be a real pain: according to a new study in the British Medical Journal. Taking them for just a week can increase your risk of heart attack by 50%. The research suggested that the risk related to the use of certain drugs was greatest with higher doses (服用量) and during the first month of use. The potential risk may increase by 75% for medicines like ibuprofen (布洛芬) and naproxen, and more than 100% for rofecoxib.It all sounds bad but, your risk is very low, — say, one in a million — a 100% increase means you still only have a two in a million chance. Of course, all painkilling medication that works can have side effects — nothing is safe and effective. Paracetamol (扑热息痛) has very few unless taken too much, in which case it can cause serious liver danger, but it isn’t very effective. Drugs like opiates are strong painkillers but easy to be addicted and often have other bad eff ects. Maybe you find that you are in a dilemma now. But don’t despair; you can refer to a pain clinic for some professional guidance. For ongoing pain, music and exercise may be the best choices to help you reduce the feeling of it.Scientist at Harvard have recently done a quite horrible study on mice. They made the mice experience extremes of hot and cold, applied pressure to their back legs and injected the capsaicin (辣椒素) into their feet. And then they timed how long it took them to respond to the pain. Lack of sleep increased the discomfort, while stimulants (兴奋剂) such as caffeine made them less responsive to pain. This has been widely reported that a good night’s sleep and a cup of coffee in the morning may help reduce pain.But anyway, don’t throw t he pills away because the study also shows taking small doses of drugs, such as for short periods of time can be effective and safe as long as your heart is in good condition.8．Which of the following painkillers has fewest side-effects?A．Ibuprofen. B．Naproxen.C．Rofecoxib. D．Paracetamol.9．What does the underlined word “despair” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Take it seriously. B．Take any risks.C．Lose hope. D．Feel doubtful.10．The example of mice is used to show that ____A．mice can stand extreme pressureB．good sleep and coffee may decrease painC．legs and feet are more sensitive to painD．capsaicin and stimulants can help reduce pain11．What is the text mainly about?A．How to stop taking painkillers. B．A new way of reducing pain.C．The risk of taking painkillers. D．How to avoid painkillers’ side effects.Portland, Oregon, just got another reason to call itself “Bike City USA”.UPS has started a trial program to deliver packages there using an electric-powered bicycle. The environmentally friendly Cargo Cruiser is a tricycle with a large brown box on the back. Like any electronic bike, the Cargo Cruiser can be powered by foot, motor, or a combination of both.UPS began testing e-Bikes in Hamburg, Germany, in 2012, but this is the first time the technology has been used for package deliveries in the United States.The e-Bikes support UPS’s efforts to reduce its carbon emissions, ease urban noise levels, and improve air quality. The amount of energy to be saved by using e-Bikes hasn’t been quantified, but th e test vehicle in Portland “will probably displace about two gallons of fuel every day”, said Scott Phillippi, UPS’s engineering manager.Phillippi says that one e-Bike alone won't create a huge difference in UPS’s carbon emissions, but he describes it as “a piece of our overall strategy” as far as environmental impacts and efficiencies.It also ties into the company’s broader strategy to settle a problem that troubles Portland and other cities around the world: traffic jam. According to UPS, traffic jam costs it hundreds of millions of dollars a year in additional operating costs. The time when the average UPS delivery truck is stuck in traffic is about 16 minutes a day, slowing its deliveries and increasing the company's carbon emissions.The pilot program is in its early stages and already has hit its first stage: ice storms pulled trees and branches down all over the city, blocking bike lanes and making travel dangerous. How do e-Bikes deal with it?If the trial proves successful, you may be able to see UPS delivery people wearing bike shorts in other places around the country, “Other cities have expressed some interest,” Phillippi said.12．What is typical of the e-Bikes in Portland?A．Making less noise. B．Delivering packages.C．Carrying a box on the back. D．Producing power by foot.13．What might be the disadvantage of the e-Bikes?A．It is powered by foot or motor.B．It's easily stuck in the traffic jam.C．Obstacles on the lane may hold back the e-Bikes.D．The amount of energy to be saved hasn’t been quantified.14．What is the main idea of the passage?A．A solution to traffic jam.B．A pilot program in the USA．C．The e-Bikes springing around the world.D．The e-Bikes test for deliveries in Portland.15．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To entertain. B．To advertise.C．To inform. D．To persuade.二、七选五You may be able to answer all of the questions the interviewer throws at you, and show a wealth of knowledge about the company in question. 16．During the job interview preparation stage, body language can easily be neglected (忽视).The way we present ourselves during an interview may betray our actual abilities. 17．Take a look at the, most common body language mistakes to avoid during your next interview:A weak or overly strong handshake.A handshake often opens and closes an interview. 18．A limp handshake may lead to assumptions of disinterest and weakness, whereas an overly strong one may come off as aggressive or pushy.A negative facial expression.19．Greeting an employer with c negative expression will not make you appear likable.Take a moment to compose yourself before going in to interview, open with a smile and remain natural and positive, without overdoing it.Avoiding eye contact.Casting your eyes down for the duration of an interview is something interviewers agree they hate.20．However, regular eye contact shows that you are engaged in the conversation and that your self-esteem is high.A．Smile!B．A stable handshake is important.C．However, actions often speak louder than words.D．So it is necessary to control our body language.E.It wouldn’t be a good idea to continually stare at the person opposite you.F.Therefore, it is good to make a positive impression with a stable handshake.G.Interviewer will get annoyed when you show up with a negative expression.三、完形填空Dealing with a disability can be a difficult task for anyone, but it's nothing for Roger. Having double disabilities all his life has made life a forever 21 . Roger was born prematurely (早产)and 22 in the hospital for nine months after birth.

AThere are two factors（因素）which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual－the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual has less chances environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never obtain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be shown by the case history of the twins. When they were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate homes. Peter was brought up by parents of low intelligence in a separate community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was brought up in the home of well-to-do opportunity to be encouraged intellectually.This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's IQ was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his twin brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having similar brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.1. This passage can best be titled______.A. Measuring Your IntelligenceB. Intelligence and EnvironmentC. The Case of Peter and MarkD. How the Brain Influences Intelligence2.The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that______.3.A. human brains differ considerably4.B. the brain a person is born with is important in determining his intelligence5.C. environment is important in determining a person's intelligence6.D. persons having similar brains will have roughly the same intelligence7.According to the passage, the average IQ is______. 8.A. 85 B. 100 C. 110 D. 1254. This passage suggests that an individual's IQ______.A. can be foretold at birthB. stays the same throughout his lifeC. can be increased by educationD. is determined by his childhoodBShort and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket—anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the object of jokes in school gym classes in England's rural Devonshire.It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first the teen went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to cycle along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind building up his body, increasing his speed, strength and endurance. At age 18, he ran his first marathon.The following year, he met John Ridgway, who became famous in the 1960s for rowing an open boat across the Atlantic Ocean. Saunders was hired as an instructor at Ridgway's school of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about the older man's cold-water exploits(成就). Intrigued, Saunders read all he could about Arctic explorers and North Pole expeditions, then decided that this would be his future.Journeys to the Pole aren't the usual holidays for British country boys, and many people dismissed his dream as fantasy. “John Ridgway was one of the few who didn't say, 'You are completely crazy,'” Saunders says.In 2001, after becoming a skilled skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition toward the North Pole. He suffered frostbite, had a closer encounter with a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he's skied more of the Arctic by himself than any other Briton. His old playmates would not believe the transformation.This October, Saunders, 27, heads south to explore from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, an 1800-mile journey that has never been completed on skis.5. The turning point in Saunders' life came when _____A. he started to play ball gamesB. he got a mountain bike at age 15C. he ran his first marathon at age 18D. he started to receive Ridgway's training6. We can learn from the text that Ridgway _______.A. dismissed Saunders' dream as fantasyB. built up his body together with SaundersC. hired Saunders for his cold-water experienceD. won his fame for his voyage across the Atlantic7. What do we know about Saunders?A. He once worked at a school in Scotland.B. He followed Ridgway to explore the North Pole.C. He was chosen for the school sports team as a kid.D. He was the first Briton to ski alone to the North Pole.8. The un derlined word “Intrigued” in the third paragraph probably means_____.A. ExcitedB. ConvincedC. DelightedD. FascinatedCToo much TV-watching can harm children's ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedroomsscored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.A second study, looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don't prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人) may watch lots of TV.Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. Those with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2.5 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest, while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms.9. According to the California study, the low-scoring group might＿＿＿＿.A. have watched a lot of TVB. not be interested in mathC. be unable to go to collegeD. have had computers in their bedrooms10. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. More time should be spent on computers.B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.C. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.11. What would be the best title for this text?A. Computers or TelevisionB. Effects of Television on ChildrenC. Studies on TV and College EducationD. Television and Children's Learning HabitsDThat cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad－looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside,“Alisa Camacho?”, I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes.“Is this what you're looking for?”he asked, ho lding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life.

2020-2021学年山西省汾阳市汾阳中学高二上学期第十五次周测英语试题第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）第一节（共15小题；每小题3分，满分45分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

AYou probably know Arthur Conan Doyle, who created the famous characters Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, was once a doctor. Let’s have a look at what these writers below did before their big breaks!DoctorArthur Conan Doyle set up a not very successful medical practice in Portsmouth and famously penned A Study in Scarlet during the long waiting times between patients. He later opened a small office dealing with diseases of the eye in London, but he never saw a single patient.AdvertisingSalman Rushdie spent many happy years at Ogilvy & Mather where he came up with “Look into the Mirror tomorrow —you’ll like what you see” for the Daily Mirror. Even F. Scott Fitzgerald worked at Barron Collier for some time. Not only did he give us The Great Gatsby, he also produced —for the Muscatine Steam laundry in Muscatine —“We keep you clean in Muscatine”.Cinema impresario (经理)James Joyce earned a living by teaching English in Trieste. With the help of Italian friends he opened the Cinematograph V olta in Dublin, but couldn’t stick to it for more than seven months. Ulysses would never have been written without the support of publisher Harriet Shaw Weaver, who gave Joyce an income of £200 a year to support his work.Airline ticketing clerkHarper Lee worked as a reservation clerk for Eastern Air Lines and BOAC for more than eight years. This only changed in 1956, when her friends Michael Brown and his wife Joy gave Lee an en tire year’s salary with a card that said, “You have one year off from your job to write whatever you please. Merry Christmas.” Lee produced the first draft of To Kill a Mockingbird within 12 months.1. Why did Conan Doyle move to London?A. To help a patient.B. To write a novel.C. To work as a physician.D. To see an eye specialist.2. What is Barron Collier?A. A laundry.B. A newspaper.C. A publishing house.D. An advertising agency.3. Who once worked as a teacher?A. Harper Lee.B. James Joyce.C. Salman Rushdie.D. F. Scott Fitzgerald.4. Which work came out thanks to a Christmas gift?A. Ulysses.B. A Study in Scarlet.C. The Great Gatsby.D. To Kill a Mockingbird.BWhile still a young child, Morales Casanova saw neighborhood children harm local trees and even their own pets. So she formed a group called Humanity United to Nature in Harmony for Beauty, Welfare, and Goodness to address the problem. Through small group meetings, she taught friends to grow plants and care for pets, inspiring a new respect for nature.A few years later, at age 13, she sent the president a proposal (提议) for creating a protected area to train children about environmental issues. He awarded her the National Youth Award for Environmental Protection.That backing helped her group to expand its grassroots youth conservation projects through her home state. In 2007 the state capital donated land that let her realize a long-held dream of opening an environmental education park.Opened in 2013, Ceiba Pentandra Park provides a free, interactive (互动的) learning experience for children and teachers on topics ranging from climate change to wildlife protection and the effects o f pollution. The park’s unusual aspect is its teachers: other children. “I think children have great potential to be leaders,” Morales Casanova says.Park students who show leadership ability are trained to be educators. They learn to speak in front of groups, plan activities, and do fundraising for projects that they design and manage themselves.“When kids see other kids making a real difference, it gives them confidence that they can do it, too,” Morales Casanova says. “The children we work with are growing up with new values … Theyare already taking action to change not only their own lifestyles, but also the minds of families and teachers.”5. Which can best replace the underlined word “backing” in Paragraph 3?A. Approval.B. Protection.C. Request.D. Opportunity.6. What is special about Ceiba Pentandra Park?A. It has children educators.B. It trains teachers for schools.C. It focuses on reducing pollution.D. It involves local government leaders.7. What does Morales Casanova stress in solving environment problems?A. Education.B. Donation.C. Experience.D. Confidence.8. What is the best title for the text?A. Respect for NatureB. New Values in LifeC. Building Leadership Skills in StudentsD. Saving Environment Through ChildrenCBoom said at the Paris Air Show Tuesday that passengers could fly between London and New York aboard a supersonic (超音速的) commercial airplane in about 2.5 hours within the next six years. The company also aims to shuttle passengers from San Francisco to Tokyo in 5.5 hours, vs. the current 11-hour travel time. Flights from Los Angeles to Sydney would take just under 7 hours, compared with the current 15 hours.“Airlines are eager to find something new and different to offer their passengers —and we’re thrilled that major world airlines share our idea of a future of faster, more accessible supersonic travel,” Blake Scholl, Boom’s founder said at the show. Five airlines have already placed more than 70 orders for Boom’s faster-than-sound passenger airliners, the company announced.Some experts, however, are skeptical that Boom can make its idea a reality and offer a product that makes financial sense. The European aircraft Concorde, which ended its transatlantic supersonic flight in 2003, was never commercially workable, and with an airfare of $20,000, appealed to only a very narrow slice of travelers, said Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. Fuel economy, unproven technology, and regulations against supersonic commercial flight are key difficulties Boom faces, Mann said.There are also some travel limitations. The United States and many other countries do not allow supersonic commercial flights over land, because of the loud shock wave that can be annoying tocommunities below. But a Boom spokesman said that its passenger airliner is being designed to minimize the noise it makes and that Boom will work to change those regulations.The company said that it will succeed where Concorde failed because Boom is using better engines and improved materials to help reduce the costs of operating its aircraft. And a business-class ticket from New York to London could cost $5,000, Boom estimates (估计), far less than the $20,000 charged by Concorde.9. In which aspect will Boom’s new airplane stand out?A. Its safety.B. Its speed.C. Its flight paths.D. Its degree of comfort.10. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The aim of Boom.B. The partners of Boom.C. The public reaction to supersonic flight.D. The potential market for supersonic flight.11. What was the main reason for Concorde’s failure?A. It was poorly designed.B. It created terrible noise.C. It was very expensive.D. It burnt too much fuel.12. What is Mann’s attitude toward supersonic commercial flight?A. Favorable.B. Disappointed.C. Doubtful.D. Ambiguous.DPeople often recommend planting trees to make cities greener, cleaner and healthier. But during heat waves, a new study shared in Environmental Science & Technology finds, up to 60 percent of the ozone (臭氧) in a city’s air may be traced to (追溯到) chemicals produced by trees.City trees offer a host of benefits, including absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. But oxygen is far from the only gas that trees release (释放) into the air. One of these chemicals is isoprene. It can react with nitrogen oxides. The result is the formation of ozone, which has a strong smell and can be harmful to human health. Cars and trucks are major sources of oxides, which can also react with other chemicals that trees can release, creating lots of other airborne pollutants.Galina Churkina, from Humboldt University of Berlin, and her team wanted to find out how much the chemicals released by trees could affect city air. To do that, researchers fed local weather data for two summers into a computer. One was 2006, when there was a heat wave. The other was 2014, when temperatures were milder.An average daily high there in summer tends to be roughly 25°C. On such a day, chemicalsreleased by trees would likely have contributed to making about 6 to 20 percent of the ozone in the city’s air. But when temperatures rise to more than 30°C, they are likely to be responsible for up to 60 percent of the ozone in the air.The results, Churkina says, suggest that city tree-planting programs should not ignore the role trees may play in worsening summer air pollution. Adding more trees will improve quality of life only if those cities also undertake plans to sharply cut pollution from cars and trucks in summer, she says.13. What does the reaction between isoprene and nitrogen oxides create?A. Ozone.B. Dioxide.C. A tasteless gas.D. A harmless gas.14. Researchers find from their study that in hot summer trees _____.A. prevent heat wavesB. worsen ozone levelsC. produce less oxygenD. absorb more pollutants15. What does Churkina advise doing?A. Controling tree chemicals.B. Planting more trees in cities.C. Reducing vehicle pollution.D. Removing some trees in summer.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。
