It’s OK, I guess. But I thought I’d get at least an 85. Text 2W: If you scare me like that again, I’ll yell and the neighbors will hear.M: I’m sorry. It was too g ood to pass up. You were just sitting there, and I thought it would be funny to throw the cat on you.Text 3W: When will you be home?M: Around three.W: OK. I’ll need the car after that. I’m going to the movies with Sharon.M: Oh. I was hoping to take you out to dinner.Text 4W: Airport, please. I’m running a little late. So just take the fastest way, even if it’s not the most direct.M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game. Text 5M: I’m still wo ndering whether we should get another credit card.W: Isn’t that just another bill to pay?M: It could be. But we don’t have to use it a lot. I just want to build up our credit scores. They’re not as high as they should be, and the only way to get a home loan is to have really good credit.Text 6W: We’re nearly there. Will we be allowed to visit all the ships, Peter? The space station and aircraft equipment, as well as the others?M: Yes, I expect so. We shall see most of them.W: Good! Visiting spaceshi ps is always exciting. But remember, we’ve got work to do. We’ve got a story to write and photographs to take.M: Will we be allowed to take photographs?W: Yes. I think so. And there’ll be a chance to ask questions.Text 7W: May I help you?M: Yes. I’d like to book three seats to Calgary Canada on a flight leaving sometime before next Sunday.W: Economy class?M: Yes.W: One-way or round trip?M: One-way.W: There aren’t any direct flights, sir.

I need to be at school by 7:15 am.W: Oh, yeah, that’s right. You asked me to pack you r lunch box last night.M: Can you drive me there right now, Mom? I would be late if I took the bus.W: Sorry, sweetie. I haven’t taken a shower or gotten dressed. I need at least 20 minutes.M: No way. I will be in big trouble.W: Oh. Look out the win dow!

I’m sure Mrs. Anderson wouldn’t mind taking you with them, right?M: You’re brilliant, Mom.Text 9M: How do you usually get to work in the morning?W: I try to ride my bike most of the time. Of course, when I’m running late, I take the subway.M: I always seem to be five or ten minutes late for everything. I drive to work every day, so if the traffic is bad, I have to think of a new way to apologize to my boss for being late.W: Does your boss yell at you if you’re late?M: No, not really. He knows that I live far away. I stay late whenever I don’t make it on time in the morning, and it probably helps that I earn a fair amount of money for the company year after year.W: Have you ever considered moving into the city to be closer to your job?M: To be honest, I would rather change jobs than houses! My wife loves our house, especially since she works from home. Our kids are in great schools. And on the weekends, there are a million things for us to do as a family.W: It does sound nice. For me, though, I love living in the city. There are so many cultural activities, and I love not having to drive.M: Yeah, driving is pretty stressful sometimes.W: I think it’s also easier to live in the city when you don’t have kids. If I werea mom, I’d probably live closer to you.M: Well, you and Timothy might want to think about getting started with that…W: You sound just like my mother-in-law!Text 10Hello, I’m Rachel Joyce. I’m so happy to be here today at the Claremont Library. I’ve traveled all the way from England, and it’s truly wonderful to visit the United States! This is the first stop on my book tour. I’m off to Australia next! Before I take any questions, let me tell you a bit about myself. My new novel, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy, was recently published in 2014. The book is a companion to my first novel, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, which follows a man named Harold Fry as he goes in search of his old friend, Queenie Hennessy, in hopes of saying goodbye before she dies. The novel was published in 2012. It was almost chosen for the Commonwealth Book Prize and the Man Booker Prize. The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy is Queenie’s side of the story as she waits for Harold. I’ve also written many radio plays for BBC Radio Four, and in 2007, I won the Tinniswood Award for my radio play To Be a Pilgrim. I have also won the UK National Book Award for New Writer of the Year. Before I was a writer, I was an actress in theatre and on TV. I’ll take questions from the audience now.。

Her mother studied to become a nurse and quickly increased the family’s income. She later attended UC Berkeley. Komal was interested in becoming a naval doctor and was part of ROTC in college. She always wanted to serve her country. She didn’t realize then that "serving" her country would later become food-related.It was 2011, when Komal Ahmad, a senior in college at the time, walked past a young man on the street who was begging for food. She invited him to sit down for a meal. At the same time, a few feet away, the dining hall was throwing away pounds of delicious food. Witnessing this, Komal knew she was meant to do something about the situation. Komal started a student group that recovered food from campus and distributed it to local non-profit organizations.As rewarding as this was, something bothered her. One day, she got a call from the dining hall manager, who had 500 sandwiches left over from an event. Komal needed to pick them up before they spoiled(变质). She rented a car, loaded it with the food, and called non-profit organizations. She found takers for only 25 sandwiches. Knowing it shouldn’t be that hard to help people, she extended her rental reserv ations in order to push the sandwiches. Then the light bulb moment she was waiting for: what if there was an app that could pair people who had food with people who needed it? And thus, Copia was born.Companies use the app to report when they have leftover food. When charity agencies first register with Copia, they indicate how m any people they need to feed, and on what days. The app distributes the leftover food, delivered by trained food handlers.4. How had Komal planned to serve her country?A. By being a naval nurse.B. By helping the navy medically.C. By teaching in ROTC.D. By solving food-related problems.5. Who inspired Komal to take action?A. Her mother.B. The dining hall manager.C. A naval doctor.D. A beggar.6. What troubled Komal about the student group?A. Its inefficiency in redistributing wasted food.B. Limited leftover food to help the homeless.C. People’s unwillingness to take leftover food.D. The difficulty of finding food sources.7. What is stressed in the last paragraph?A. The creation of Copia.B. The influence of Copia.C. The way Copia functions.D. The development of Copia.CTeens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.According t o the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2—8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on readin g. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids wh en it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.8. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A. Children’s reading habits.B. Quality of children’s books.C. Children’s after-class activities.D. Parent-child relationships.9. Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"?A. In paragraph 2.B. In paragraph 3.C. In paragraph 4.D. In paragraph 5.10. Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A. E-books are of poor quality.B. It could be a waste of time.C. It may harm children’s health.D. E-readers are expensive.11. How should parents encourage their children to read more?A. Act as role models for them.B. Ask then to write book reports.C. Set up reading groups for them.D. Talk with their reading class teachers.DAdults understand what it feels like to be flooded with objects. Why do we often assume that more is more when it comes to kids and their belongings? The good news is that I can help my own kids learn earlier than I did how to live more with less.I found the pre-holidays a good time to encourage young children to donate less-used thing s, and it worked. Because of our efforts, our daughter Georg ia did decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother was unable to pay for her holiday due to illness. She chose to sell a few larger objects that were lessoften used when we promised to put the money into her school fund(基金)(our kindergarten daughter is serious about beco ming a doctor)For weeks, I've been thinking of bigger, deeper questions: How do we make it a habit for them? And how do we train ourselves to help them live with, need, and use less? Yesterday, I sat with my son, Shepherd, determined to test my own theory on this. I decided to play with him with only one toy for as long as it would keep his interest. I expected that one toy would keep his attention for about five minutes, ten minutes, max. I chose a red rubber ball-simple, universally available. We passed it, he tried to put it in his mouth, he tried bouncing it, rolling it, sitting on it, throwing it. It was totally, completely enough for him. Before I knew it an hour had passed and it was time to move on to lunch.We both became absorbed in the simplicity of playing together. He had my full attention and I had his. My little experiment to find joy in a single object worked for both of us.12. What do the words “more is more” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. The more, the better.B. Enough is enough.C. More money, more worries.D. Earn more and spend more.13. What made Georgia agree to sell some of her objects?A. Saving up for her holidayB. Raising money for a poor girlC. Adding the money to her fundD. Giving the money to a sick mother14. Why did the author play the ball with Shepherd?A. To try out an ideaB. To show a parent's loveC. To train his attentionD. To help him start a hobby15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Take It or Leave ItB. A Lesson from KidsC. Live More with LessD. The Pleasure of Giving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。

Now, I’d like to share some of my ideas with you.Personally, I hold that the content of the newspaper should be colorful, including introduction of learning methods as well as materials connected to our lessons. For example, the newspaper can regularly provide different articles about Western culture and custom, which will surely help us know more about the outside world, thus broadening our horizon. In addition, it would be better to set a special column where we can express our feelings and emotions. We really need such a placeto release our pressure freely and meanwhile practice expressing ourselves in English.I truly hope that you can take my suggestions into full consideration.Yours sincerely Li Hua。
安阳市二中2015-2016学年上学期期中考试高二英语试题第一部分:听力理解(共两节,满分30分)略第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AWhat makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, thewhite paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.21.

What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To show how to design images for gifts.B. To suggest making gifts from one's heart.C. To explain how computers help create gifts.D. To describe the gifts the author has receivedBBucks CountyIf ancient shops, covered bridges, and historic B&Bs are your idea of a charming way to spend a summer weekend, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, is perfectly suitable for you. If you’ve got the kids with you, head to Sesame Place in Langhorne or take them to the Delaware River; be sure to have a bite at the River Hot Dog Man for a special lunch at an in-the-water picnic table.ChicagoChicago’s our kind of town all year long, but the city really comes into its own in the summer months, when visitors enjoy the city’s finest season. Besides the sweet jazz and blues clubs, more than 7,000 restaurants and world-class museums, the onset (开始) of summer means enjoying Chicago dogs at Wrigley Field, sunning yourself on man-made Oak Street beach, and enjoying concerts in Highland Park during the Ravinia Festival.JacksonLying close to Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park, this Wyoming town’s wild- -west reputation is growing for an international film festival, and a 500-seat performing arts center that opened in March. ReykjavikIf you’re always saying that there just aren’t enough hours in the day, head to Iceland this summer, when the sun shines at midnight —you’ll have no excuse but to get out and explore Reykjavik and its unique natural surroundings. Once you’ve arrived in this Nordic capital, spend the weekend discovering hot springs, waterfalls, mountains, and glaciers (冰川).25. If you want to listen to music in summer, you should visit _____.A. ReykjavikB. Bucks CountyC. JacksonD. Chicago26. From this passage we can know that Jackson _____.A. is surrounded by Yellowstone National ParkB. is becoming a famous arts centerC. holds international book festival every yearD. belongs to one part of Grand Teton National Park27. If you are interested in mountain-climbing, you can travel to _____.A. JacksonB. ChicagoC. ReykjavikD. Bucks County28. We can know from this passage that _____.A. you’d see many dogs in JacksonB. it’s interesting to travel to Bucks County in winterC. you can travel to Reykjavik to visit some ancient shopsD. you can enjoy sunshine on the beach in summer in ChicagoCA few months ago as I wandered through my parents’ house, the same house I grew up in, I had a sudden, scary realization. When my parents bought the house, in 1982, they were only two years older than I am now. I tried to imagine myself in two years, ready to settle down and buy the house I’d still be living in almost 30 years later.It seemed ridiculous. On a practical level, there’s no way I could afford to buy a house anytime soon. More importantly, I wouldn’t want to. I’m not sure where I’ll be living in two years, or what kind of job I’ll have. And I don’t think I’ll be ready to settle down and stay in one place.So this is probably the generation gap that divides my friends and me from our parents. When our parents were our age, they’d gotten the ir education, chosen a career, and were starting to settle into responsible adult lives.My friends and I ---“Generation Y”—still aren’t sure what we want to do with our lives. Whatever we end up doing, we want to make sure we’re happy doing it. We’d rathe r take risks first, try out different jobs, and move from one city to anther until we find our favorite place. We’d rather spend our money on travel than put it in a savings account.This casual attitude toward responsibility has caused some critics to call my generation “arrogant”(傲慢自大的), “ impatient”, and “overprotected”. Some of these complaints have a point. As children, we were encouraged to succeed in school, but also to have fun. We grew up in a world full of technological innovation: cellphones, the Internet, instant messaging, and video games.Our parents looked to rise vertically(垂直的)--- starting at the bottomof the ladder and slowly making their way to the top, on the same track,often for the same company. That doesn’t apply to my gene ration.Because of that, it may take us longer than our parents to arrive at responsible, stable adulthood. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Inour desire to find satisfaction, we will work harder, strive for ways tokeep life interesting, and gain a broader set of experiences and knowledgethan our parents’ generation did.29.

It’s better to take adult responsibility earlier.C. It involves too much effort to rise vertically.D. It’s ridiculous to call her generation “arrogant”.32. What is the main theme of the article?A. The sudden realization of growing up.B. A comparison between lifestyles of generations.C. Criticisms of the young generation.D. The factors that have changed the young generation.DAt exactly eleven Sir Percival knocked and entered, with anxiety and worry in every line of his face. This meeting would decide his future life, and he obviously knew it.“You may wonder, Sir Percival,” said Laura calmly, “if I am going to ask to be released (免除)from ray promise to marry you. I am not going to ask this. I respect my father's wishes too much.”His face relaxed a little, but one of his feet kept beating the carpet.“No, if we are going to withdraw(退出)from our planned marriage, it will be because of your wish, not mine. ”“Mine?” he said in great surprise. “What reason could I have for withdrawing?”“A reason that is very hard to tell you,” she answered. “There is a change in me.”His face went so pale that even his lips lost their color. He turned his head to one side.“What change?” he ask ed, trying to appear calm.“When the promise was made two years ago”, she said, “my love did not belong to anyone. Will you forgive me, Sir Percival, if I tell you that it now belongs to another person?”“I wish you to understand”, Laura continued, “that I will never see this person again, and that if you leave me, you only allow me to remain a single woman for the rest of my life. All I ask is that you forgive me and keep my secret.”“I will do both those things,” he said. Then he looked at Laura, as if he was waiting to hear more.“I think I have said enough to give you reason to withdraw from our marriage,” she added quietly.“No. You have said enough to make it the dearest wish of my life to marry you, ” he said.33.How did Percival feel during his meeting with Laura?A.
