It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots (点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance.I pleted the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others;I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “ See what you can do when you keep trying?”31.The author didn’t finish the reading in class because .A.He was new to the classB.He was tired of literatureC.He had an attention disorderD.He wanted to take the task home32.What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?A.He made a great invention.B.He had good sightC.He gave up readingD.He learned a lot from school33.What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?A.AngryB.ImpatientC.SympatheticD.Encouraging34.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The disabled should be treated with respect.B.A teacher can open up a new world to students.C.Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.D.One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.BMark Twain left school when he was twelve.

His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname. Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother’s care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn’t like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times.After his father’s death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, whoonly provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and HuckleberryFinnin1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune.Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts.

2023-2024学年宁夏育才中学高二上学期11月期中英语试题Many people travel to enrich and enjoy themselves. However, their travel methods may be different each year.Lonely Planet and Forbes concluded some top trends (趋势) in 2022. Here are three of them for you to take a look.Solo (独自) travelTraditionally, travel seems to be a group activity to have fun together and avoid loneliness. But solo travel became popular, especially among young people in 2022.Traveling on your own means that you are the boss of everything, choosing wherever you want to go, whatever you eat and whenever you go out. For some people, it also makes them a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. Traveling in a totally foreign land on your own can be challenging. “It opens up your mind to new things, and pushes you out of your comfort zone,” Kristina Wegscheider, a traveler from the US, told Travel Pulse.Augmented attractions (增强型景点)World travel can be expensive. But virtual reality (虚拟现实) and augmented reality, or VR and AR, are giving more possibilities to travel for little cost. With ever-improving headsets, smartphones and Wi-Fi connections, people can have a 360-degree experience of museums, theme parks and historical sites.With these technologies, visitors can experience the surface of Mars with just a headset, or view a sea cow’s growing flesh before their eyes in a museum.Getting off the touristy pathThere are always some “must-see” spots an ywhere you travel. But traveling in such places always brings problems like overcrowding and noise.In order to have a better travel experience, many tried to visit less famous places in 2022. With less transportation and fewer things to do, visiting a little town lets people slow down and notice the little things. Take a walk, ride a bike, sip coffee a little slower, take a deep breath and explore the natural scenery.1. Who are most likely to choose solo travel?A．An old man. B．A young man.C．A little child. D．A middle aged woman.2. How do VR and AR change the way we travel?A．They allow us to visit places at a low cost.B．They make museums the hottest destinations.C．They challenge us to walk out of our comfort zones.D．They make space travel a reality for ordinary people.3. In which section of a magazine can you read the text?A．Health. B．Travel. C．Science. D．Environment. Lynn Colwell is a mixed-media artist in Redmond, Washington. When she retired, she took a year-long online painting class to pursue a new interest. She started painting striking portraits of women’s faces, combined with short messages of hope. She drew a new one almost every day. In five years, she’s completed about 1,000 paintings.Lynn gives her paintings away. She started with friends, but that only went so far. Then she read about a movement called Art Abandonment, which encourages artists to leave their art in public places for anyone to pick up. That gave her the idea of putting her work into the hands of strangers through Facebook.Lynn didn’t want to sell her art, but she wanted to feel she was making a difference in the world. She was interested in living simply, protecting the environment and giving back. Nearly every day, Lynn posts a painting on her Facebook page. The first person who responds saying the paintings are interesting has 24 hours to make a donation of $25 or more to their favorite nonprofit or an individual in need. Then the painting is theirs. Lynn doesn’t ask for proof. She trusts that the people who want her paintings share her ideals.Five years later, she’s still amazed at the results. Her paintings have raised more than $57,000 for nonprofits such as animal rescue centers, homeless shelters and food banks as well as for people who have lost their jobs or been overwhelmed with medical bills. Sometimes Lynn hears that a painting helped someone at the moment they needed it most. “That gives me chills,” she says.4. What’s Lynn’s aim to take online painting class?A．To kill her dull time. B．To develop a hobby.C．To prepare for sales. D．To get to know friends.5. Why was Art Abandonment mentioned?A．To emphasize its influence. B．To show why it’s popular.C．To arouse public curiosity. D．To link it with Facebook.6. Which word can describe Lynn according to paragraph 3?A．Easy-going. B．Out-going. C．Kind-hearted. D．Simple-minded.7. What’s the best title for the text?A．A Great Elderly Artist B．Letting Painting Speak upC．Painting to Change the World D．Painting Improves Lynn’s LifeCan you survive an unannounced storm? Although there is expert broadcasting and we have cell phones, there are still some instances (情况) when the violent weather takes us by surprise.While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the roust of Africa giving plenty of early warning, sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day’s time, endangering everyone and everything in their path.Oil workers were trapped off the shore (海岸) when sudden storms appeared. Natural scientists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. Ten years ago a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and bad to ride out (经受得住) a major hurricane during a training exercise. There’ve been a few instances when trave lers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time.Escaping from the storm-threatens areas is generally a choice for most of us — but not for all. Each year thousands of islanders across the Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without so much as a public shelter to hide in. Most ride out the storm in their homes.But there’re a few things yon ran do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. If you’re headed outdoors for a few days or weeks, you should always carry a flashlight with extra batteries, a Beidou device, and a basic medical box. If you’re traveling in your ear, remember you may suffer high winds. You’d better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your car. Keeping your head and your courage up is essential (必要的) to survival in any type of danger. Let common sense guide you and always be prepared for the worst.8. According to the text, most Atlantic hurricanes _______.A．form in the Caribbean Sea B．develop off the coast of AfricaC．come from Gulf of Mexico D．are from the Pacific Ocean9. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A．People trapped by sudden storms.B．The bad situations of oil workers.C．The Texas National Guard group.D．The danger of traveling on an island.10. What can we learn from the passage?A．We can get through the storm because of the expert broadcasting.B．Being prepared for the unexpected is likely to be our best and only defense.C．Escaping from the storm-threatened arras is a choice for all of us in general.D．We should stay inside the car to avoid being blown away in high winds.11. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A．To give some advice.B．To encourage travelingC．To give some warnings.D．To understand the danger of stormsGrowing Vegetables in SpaceHave you ever dreamed of travelling in space? Well, you may not go, but you may be able to eat vegetables grown from seeds that have! China, the USA and Russia have all become interested in whether it is possible to eat food grown from seeds that have been in space. Indeed since 1987 China has sent 1,000 species of seeds into space to do experiments. These include green peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, lettuce and wheat.The most advanced work on growing vegetables in space has been undertaken on the International Space Station run by Russian and American astronauts. One of the most exciting moments was when soybean seeds were brought back to Earth and planted. These seeds were the first to come from a crop grown entirely in space.The scientists chose to grow soybeans in space because they are an important source of protein in the human diet. Mark Nall, director of Space Product Development Programme for National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA), said that “this experiment and others are paving the way for improving crops grown on Earth, as well as potentially feeding people living in space.” The problem is that producing a new strain of soybean is a slow procedure on Earth so the scientists hope that it can be speeded up in space. Perhaps the seeds may also develop some characteristics that will be useful for farmers-for example, produce more oil or protein.However, the scientists are aware that there ma y be problems. “Conditions in outer space such as radiation and low gravity may cause big changes in the seeds,” said Jin Xing, a Chinese researcher. He knows that genetically modified food is still being debated and so some people will be very suspicious of these “space vegetables”. However Jin has a more positive view. He thinks that unlike genetically modified crops, no new genes are being introduced into space vegetables so they will be safe.The Chinese government certainly thinks so because they have been cooperating with NASA to produce a new strain of virus-free potatoes. Their scientists hope that in space it may be possible to produce a new crop every 40-50 days instead of one crop a year. So watch out for these special potatoes on the supermarket shelves. Maybe some day you will find them on your dinner table!12. The scientists chose to grow soybeans in space because ________.A．scientists know more about soybeansB．it’s easy to begin agricultural experiment from soybeansC．the soybeans share some common characteristics with other plantsD．the soybeans contain protein needed by the human body13. The underlined phrase “pave the way” in the third paragraph means ________.A．to build a new road B．to make things easierC．to explore a new area D．to solve a problem14. Mr Jin is positive about space vegetables because ________.A．astronauts have tried eating some space vegetablesB．space vegetables are like genetically modified cropsC．no new genes are being introduced into space vegetablesD．scientists have found that it’s safe to eat space vegetables15. The writer’s opinion about the space potato is that ________.A．the new programme may produce a sound cropB．people are looking forward to the new productC．people can buy the new product in the supermarketD．the new product will have a wide marketHow do you stay true to yourself when you’re surrounded by friends and your family that have an opinion on everything you do? It’s not easy! 16 Here are 4 tips which can help you live a dynamic life.17Stay true to yourself by listening to the only opinions that really matter—your own and those from people who believe in and encourage you. You know yourself better than anybody else.Don’t fear people.18 The reason why most people don’t take risks is the fear of what others might think of them. If you want to live the life you truly deserve, you must give up the need to be liked by everybody. Value yourself and your choices.When you do, others will too. Own the choices you make in your life. 19 When you believe in yourself, others will believe in you too. Show confidence in your choices and ignore others’ opinions.Focus on appreciation.No matter what the circumstances are, there is always something to be grateful for. All people will ask, “What am I grateful for? How can I improve my situation and use the tough time to inspire others?” 20These steps, if applied, will help you transform your peace of mind, lifestyle, etc.Last year in early summer, I was walking to my house when I saw two large birds standing in my yard.

Canyoning (蹦谷运动)The sports of canyoning explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets (头盔), people jump from cliffs (悬崖) and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, ) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).Diving (潜水)Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, ) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, ) run courses teaching the important skills.Surfing (冲浪)The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn when water temperatures are warmer.The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, ) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.Rock climbingThe most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Cl imbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878,) which offers a series of short films that take the new climber through a step-by-step guide to visiting a climbing wall for the first time.（1）If a couple with their child of 15 join in Canyoning for a day, they will pay ________.A.￡130B.￡160C.￡260D.￡320（2）To go surfing, you may phone ________.A.01479 861256B.0870 010 4878C.01437 721611D.0870 112 9133（3）Which of the following is NOT well accepted by British people?A.Canyoning.B.Diving.C.Surfing.D.Rock climbing.2.

When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank（打屁股）the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark onhis child's leg. He never did that again. One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do theright thing.Many parents are not sure what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion（宗教）tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child.
