AHave you ever felt that you wa nt more friends? Have you found that you don’t know how to make friends? Don’t worry. It’s easier than it looks.Start with small actions. If you’re uncomfortable with long conversations with people, start by just saying “hi” and asking what the person is doing. Even if you do more listening than talking in the beginning, people will usually still like you. When it comes to conversations, remember “F.O.R.”. It stands for family, occupation(职业) and recreation(休闲). You are most likely to be asked about these three topics when you meet someone new. Most people feel comfortable talking about the three topics. The great thing is that you also can communicate with someone new in these three areas.Honesty is the best policy. In friendship, “honesty” is the fundamental quality that one must have. One should always be honest with his or her friends. Don’t laugh at people’s fault. Praise them honestly and openly. Say you are sorry if you hurt your friend.Give more than you take. Be there when they need you, encourage them; we all need encouragement now and then. Encourage their dreams. Life seems meaningless without them. Wish your friends good luck. Examine your purpose before you “help out”. Love an d never forget them.1. The author thinks making friends is _________.A. difficultB. easyC. funnyD. interesting2. What does the underlined word “fundamental” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. basic.B. beautiful.C. comfortable.D. meaningful.3. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. Where to Meet Friends?B.

People came in just to hear him play. But one night, a customer told him that he didn’t want to hear him just play the piano any more. He wanted him to sing a song.The man said, “I don’t sing.”But the customer was persistent (固执的). He told the bar manager, “I’m tired of listening to the piano. I want that man to sing!”The manager shouted across the room, “If you want to get paid, sing a song. Our customers are asking you to sing!”So he did. He sang a song. A piano player who had never sung in public did so for the first time. And everyone was surprised by his song —“Mona, Mona Lisa”. He got lots of applause (掌声) that night.He had such a talent for singing, but he just had been sitting on his talent for the past years! If without such a chance, he may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name piano player in a no-name bar. However, now he had become one of the best-known singers in America.You, too, have skills and abilities. Maybe your “talent” is not as great as the s inger above, but it may be better than you think! And with effort, most skills can be improved. So, in your life, you should be brave enough to try doing different things and find out what talents you really have!4. Why did the man start to sing?A.

Feeling confused (疑惑的), I went to Sam the next morning and asked him why he could throw a party for his friends while I couldn't. He didn't say anything. Instead, he took me to a notice board in the hall of the building. It said, "My dear neighbors, Sam living on the sixth floor will throw a party tonight. About twenty people will come. We'll sing and dance. The party will be over around midnight. We may make some noise tonight. Please accept my apology."He apologized even before the party began. People felt respected in this way.

“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. ”—Albert Einstein It’s no secret that curiosity makes learning more effective and 1 . Curious students not only ask questions, but also 2 seek out the answers. Without 3 , Sir Isaac Newton would have never put forward the laws of physics, Alexander Fleming probably woul dn’t have 4 penicillin (青霉素)，and Marie Curie’s pioneering research on radioactivity may not exist.Curiosity is just as 5 as intelligence in determining how well students do in school. Curiosity 6 the brain for learning. As we all known, we’re more likely to 7 what we’ve learned when the subject matter interests us. Actually, curiosity also helps us learn information we don’t consider 8 or important. So if a teacher is able to 9 students’ curiosity, they’ll be better prepared to learn things that they would normally consider boring or difficult. For instance, if a student struggles with 10 , personalizing math problem to match their specific interest could help them 11 remember how to go about solving similar math problems in the future.However, scientists think that there are still a few things that remain 12 about curiosity’s role in learning. For one thing, scientists have yet to determine its long-term effects. For instance, if a studen t’s curiosity is aroused at the 13 of a school day, will it help them better absorb information all day long? Another thing the 14 are keen to investigate iswhy some people are more 15 curious than others, and which factors most influence how curious we are.1. A. enjoyable B. impossible C. difficult D. avoidable2. A. lazily B. actively C. dependently D. negatively3. A. energy B. curiosity C. technology D. secret4. A. invented B. discovered C. heard D. learned5. A. important B. easy C. sensitive D. heavy6. A. blames B. searches C. begs D. prepares7. A. remember B. dislike C. forgive D. abandon8. A. interesting B. boring C. friendly D. awful9. A. arouse B. remove C. record D. miss10. A. physics B. chemistry C. math D. biology11. A. better B. less C. louder D. harder12. A. distinct B. unclear C. certain D. confident13. A. beginning B. end C. age D. time14. A. teachers B. students C. researchers D. police15.

广东省湛江第一中学2015-2016学年高二上学期第二次考试英语试题第Ⅰ卷第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答題卡上将该选项涂黑。

APut your car keys away and forget about your travel pass --- it’s time to do a bit of walking.National Walking Month is organized every May by Living Streets, an organization that campaigns for the rights and the needs of pedestrians, so the organization is previously known as the Pedestrians’ Association. The association’s aim is to make streets safe, att ractive and enjoyable spaces for people to live, work, shop and play. By putting people (rather than vehicles) first, Living Streets wants to create streets and spaces where people feel happier, healthier and more sociable.The annual campaign gives participants a great opportunity to experience the many virtues of walking. These include the physical health benefits of becoming fitter; the environmental advantages of not using vehicles; the delight of local discoveries --- seeing more of your local areas on foot; the enjoyment of walking with other people, whether family, friends or work colleagues and finally the stress relief that comes from walking --- walking can clear your head.Walk to School Week, 18 to 22 May, is part of the month’s activities and its aim is to encourage parents to send children to school on foot, rather than take them in the car or let them use public transport. The movement was started in 1995 with only five participating schools and now two decades later, more than one million children take part.Similarly, there is Walk to Work Week, 11 to 15 May, where grown-ups are encouraged to walk. In the morning, getting off the bus a stop early or parking a few streets away is a good way to add more steps to the daily total. And during the working day, after having lunch at the desks or in the canteen, take a walk and get some fresh air. Walk home with your workmates and chat away about everything under the sun but work!1.What’s the purpose of Living Streets?A. To let people keep away from vehicles.B. To build safer walkways for pedestrians.C. To help people enjoy walking in the street and enjoy life.D. To make people aware of environmental pollution.2.Paragraph 3 is intended to show that walking is __________.A. so interestingB. very relaxingC. perfectly safeD. highly beneficial3.What can we learn from Walk to School Week?A. It is organized by the government.B. It is held before Walk to Work Week.C. It has developed rapidly over the last 20 years.D. It encourages students to walk to school alone.4.What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?A. An introduction to Walk to Work Week.B. A nationwide health movement.C. The influence of worki ng day.D. National Walking Month’s history.BWhy should I teach my children history? That sounds like a stupid question to even ask. But, as I hear different home schooling teachers discuss history, I get the idea that there may be different reasons for teaching history. Let me briefly explain the three good reasons for studying history and two bad reasons for studying history.The major reason I see for studying history is that we can learn from the past. I am convinced that the world would be a much better place if more people understood the successes and failures of the past and the things that made these successes and failures. However, as the unfortunately true statement goes "the one thing we seem to learn from history is that we don't seem to learn from history." Perhaps at least in teaching history, to my children I can do a small part in changing this.The second major reason for studying history is that it is hard to understand the current political climate in the absence of an understanding of its historical context. We can not even understand why we are and where we are without history, much less (更不必说) try to figure out where we are going or how we should get where we want to be.I teach my children history, for one more reason. I purchased a set of historical audio (录音机) tapes for ourchildren. My seven-year-old son listened to them over and over. It was my hope that he would become inspired by the accomplishments of people like the Wright brothers to accomplish things by himself. I think that it is good that we celebrate the accomplishments of people like Martin Luther King Jr. if, in doing so, young people are called on to stand for the principles that he stood for and accomplish what he accomplished. I also think that by studying people like Adolph Hitler, people can learn to stand against the things that he stood for.5 . In Paragraph 3, the author shows that history is useful because _______________.A. it makes the current political situation go smoothlyB. it helps us realize the importance of historical eventsC. it helps us understand why things are the way they areD. it helps people accept the present situation where they live6. Some historical figures(人物) are mentioned in the last paragraph to show ______________.A. people can be inspired to do good, while also learning to fight against evilB. people may also learn from bad historical figuresC. more celebrations should be held to honor their achievementsD. today’s people can also achieve what they achieved7. What would be talked about in the following paragraph?A. How to teach history effectively.B. Some negative reasons for studying history.C. How to get more people to study history.D. Some bad historical figures.8. The main purpose of this passage is to ____________.A. inspire the parents to teach their children historyB. show the importance of history in politicsC. explain the reasons why children study historyD. introduce the writer' s own way of teaching history,CWith all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps ( 处于沮丧中), as the saying goes, makes me feel good and warms my heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, closefriend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy (礼貌) to speak to others that are around you.I know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face. They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke?Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.9. According to the author, humor is useful in the aspect that ____________.A. it makes people more confidentB. it can pick up people' s spiritsC. it can help rid the cruelty in the worldD. it can help people get on well with others10. The ph rase “busting a gut" in the third paragraph can be replaced by __________.A. explaining carefullyB. speaking loudC. keeping silentD. laughing hard11. In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to __________.A. talk about his own understanding of humorB. encourage people to be humorous in daily lifeC. introduce a practical way to get through daily lifeD. convince people of the power of being optimistic about life12. What is the author' s attitude towards the present world?A. Positive.B. Critical.C. Satisfied.D. Indifferent.DAmazon. com has received a patent(专利) right to send its products to customers by drone planes. The company is the largest US-based online seller of products by mail and other services. Now, the company has received apatent for its planned drone delivery system.In March, federal officials allowed Amazon to test its drone delivery plan. But even with a patent and the ability of drones to make deliveries, it does not appear the company will put its new delivery system in place any time soon.The US Patent Office published the document, which describes Amazon’s plans to use GPS to deliver products to homes and to wherever people are. The drone will use a customer’s mobile device --- usually a smartphone ---to avoid hitting people or buildings and to find a secure area to land. The company wants to deliver products within 30 minutes after people order them on its website.However, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is worried about the safety. Although it allowed Amazon to test the system, the agency said the operators must be able to see the planes. That greatly limits the delivery area.Loretta Alkalay is a professor at the Vaughn College of Aeronautics and Technology in New York. Although Amazon is not yet offering drone delivery, Professor Alkalay says it will not be long before it does. She says there are worries that the drones will hit buildings or people, or that the products and drones will be stolen or damaged by people on purpose. But she says that is because many people believe the drones would only deliver the products to the front door of a house. “However, it is possible that homes will one day have special area on their roofs designed to rec eive product deliveries,” she adds.13.What is special about the new delivery system?A. It can deliver heavy products by plane.B. It uses planes without human operators.C. It can delivery many products at a time.D. It is much safer than other delivery ways.14. The underlined word “secure” in Paragraph 3 means “__________”.A. safeB. largeC. specialD. empty15.After reading the passage, we can infer that FAA__________A. doesn’t really like AmazonB. totally support the drone delivery systemC. doesn’t think Amazon should get the patentD. doubts about the drone delivery system第二节（共5小题；毎小题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AChina news, Beijing, June 5 —The Horizon Research Group conducted a survey about Chinese parentsand their children in May last year and this year. Based on a random sampling method, the survey,done in May last year, investigated about 1,095 people living in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xinjiang, Jinzhong, and Luzhou. All these people were aged between 18 and 60. Thesurvey shows that 55.5% of the parents did not know who their children’s best friends were.Fathers, in particular, knew even less about their children than mothers, as the survey showsonly 33.8% of fathers knew who their children’s best friends were while 50.8% of mothers didso, China Youth Daily reported.Parents with little education were less concerned with their children’s life, or whom theirchildren played with. The survey shows that among parents that graduated from primary schoolsor without any educat ional background, only 33.1% knew who their children’s best friends were.Among parents that had received middle school education, the related proportion reached 45.5%.This y ear’s survey was also based on random sampling. In May 2007, the Horizon ResearchGroup investigated some 1,456 families in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Xi’an,Chengdu and Harbin. The survey shows that children under the age of 12 play for less time withtheir playmates than their parents did when they were young.The survey also shows that most children at present spend only 21.9% of their time playingwith their friends, while their parents spent 36.8% of their time with their playmates when theywere young. Nowadays, most children spend more time with their grandparents or babysitters thanwith their parents.1. The article tells us that the two surveys show the following aspects EXCEPT that ______.A. parents at present spend less time playing with their children than with the oldergeneration.B. some parents do not know their children’s best friend s.C. educated parents are more concerned about their children’s life than those with littl eeducation.D. parents at present are concerned little about their children’s life.2. The passage can be found in _________.A. a magazineB. a newspaperC. a science journalD. a school book3. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Parents need to take their responsibilities for their children.B. Parents should provide better conditions for their children.C. Parents don’t play an important part in the growth of their children now.D. Parents should let their children have more friends.BHere a re some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder：Recite As You StudyReciting — saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help y ou to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.Take Fuller NotesNotes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.Study the MiddleThe best time to review is soon after you've learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of th e lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.Sleep on ItStudy before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It's easier to remember material you've just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you've fallen asleep.Combine Memory and UnderstandingThere are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables(乘法表), telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by memorizing, while ideas are best learned by understanding.The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again. 4．You can notice your mistakes by ________.A. saying things out aloudB. taking notesC. studying the middleD. sleeping on it5．When taking notes, you should ________ to better help you with reading.A. underline important notesB. write notes in your own wordsC. take down every detailD. write as quickly as possible6．The writer advises you to ________ as it is easier for you to remember ma terial.A. study after a period of activityB. do some exercise after studyingC. study as soon as you get upD. study before going to sleep7．Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?A. Thinking about an idea in different ways.B. Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.C. Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.D. Going back to what first made you confused and start again.CDo you like shopping? Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror? For some of us, shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money. For me,it's something I would rather avoid. Thank goodness for the Internet! It's more convenient to buy CDs, electrical items, even food, from the comfort of your sofa. But that’s not the only reason: price is an important factor. We can buy goods and services cheaper online. But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy. This has led to a type of shopping called “showrooming”.Showrooming is something I've done. I will go to a shop to see, touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a lower price. I'm not alone in doing this. Research by a company called Foolproof, found 24％of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.Amy Cashman, Head of Technology at TNS UK, says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that “people are lacking time, lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying.”She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.But does this mean technology will kill shops? Certainly shops will change. They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving store discounts or free gifts.We mustn’t forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare. It’s good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming, you get the best of both worlds!8. The two questions in Paragraph 1 are raised toA. give two examplesB. introduce the topicC. compare different opinionsD. get answers from readers9. What does showrooming mean in the text?A. Trying in shops and buying online.B. Showing products in a room.C. Buying something in a store.D. Shopping on the Internet.10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Online shops will disappear.B. Free gifts will surely promote sales.C. Shops need necessary changes.D. Shops will be replaced by online shops.11. The author's attitude towards showrooming is .A. criticalB. negativeC. casualD. supportiveDMy oldest child, Emma, just returned to campus after a long holiday break to finish up her last period of college. These days, friends and family have begun flooding me with one question: What is she going to do after graduation?The job market is, after all, awfully tough. Just this month the Federal Reserve Bank published a study showing that “recent graduates are increasingly working in low-paid jobs or working part-time.” The bright spot, according to the study, is for students who majored(主修) in STEM —science, technology, engineering and mathematics —areas in which recent graduates “have tended to do relatively well”.But Emma is a student of the humanities(人文) at a small college. She’s an American Studies major with a focus on the politics and culture of food. For quite a while, I think her field of study is so fashionable right now that I’m not the least bit worried she will find a good job. Yet the more I’ve thought about it, the more I’ve decided to be honest. “I’m not sure what Emma is going to do,” I now say. “But she’s gotten a great education and has really found her interest. — and I know those things will serve he r well over the course of her life.”Nowadays, more and more universities and colleges are being measured by the salaries of their recent graduates. In this climate, encouraging your kid to study the humanities, seems, at best, unwise or, at worst, unconcerned with earning a living. But a college is not avocational(职业) school. And promoting STEM subjects should not be society’s only answer to helping the next generation grow in a competitive world.From the beginning, we never urged Emma to pick a college or a major with an eye on its expected return on money, as more and more families are doing. To Emma, what really matters will be something that we may not be able to measure for quite a long time: Emma’s contributionto the world and how happy she is in it.12. The author’s friends and family_________.A. are worried about Emma’s safetyB. have been worrying about the floodC. are concerned about Emma’s futureD. are worried about the job market13. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. The number of the graduates is increasing.B. STEM graduates can be better employees.C. STEM graduates are in relatively greater demand.D. More and more graduates like to do a part-time job.14. Why did Emma choose a major in the humanities?A. Because she is interested in it.B. Because her mother told her to.C. Because it is increasingly popular.D. Because she wants further education.15. According to the author, what matters most in choosing a major is that_________.A. it should be among the STEMB. it should be fashionable and interestingC. it should allow a good job and a high salaryD. it should bring achievements and happiness第二节（共5小题，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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
