Three Boys and a DadBrad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months. “This will be like a walk in the park,”he'd told his wife. “I'll look after the kids, and you can go visit yo ur mom.”Things started well, but just after eight o'clock, his three little “good kids” —Mike, Randy, and Alex —came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted “breakfast, daddy.”When food had not appeared within thirty seconds,Randy began using his spoon on Alex's head as if it were a drum. Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat (节拍). Mike chanted “Where's my toast, where's my toast” in the background. Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.Life became worse after breakfast. Mike wore Randy's underwear on his head. Randy locked himself in the bathroom,while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named “Not Me” had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Brad knew the talk show had already started.By ten o'clock, things were out of control. Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils. Randy,thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room, but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.At exactly 11:17, Brad called the daycare centre (日托所). “I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away. Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?” The answer was obviously “yes” becau se Brad was smiling.1.When his wife left home,Brad expected to ______.A.go out for a walk in the parkB.watch TV talk show with his childrenC.enjoy his first day off workD.read the newspaper to his children2.Which of the following did Randy do?A.Drawing on the wall. B.Eating apple jam.C.Feeding the fish. D.Reading in a room.3.Why did Brad ask the daycare centre for help?A.Because he wanted to clean up his house.B.Because he suddenly had to go to his office.C.Because he found it hard to manage his boys.D.Because he had to take his wife back home.4.This text is developed ________.A.by space B.by comparisonC.by process D.by timeBEating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure(暴露)to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problems, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风) within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物) were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the US. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好) quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.5.The text mainly discusses the relationship between ________.A.heart problems and air qualityB.heart problems and exercisingC.heart problems and smokingD.heart problems and fatty food6.The underli ned word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means ________.A.relatively high B.extremely lowC.relatively low D.extremely high7.What can we learn from the text?A.Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B.The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C.Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking.D.Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.8.The author's purpose of writing the text is most likely to ________.A.inform B.persuadeC.describe D.entertainCIf 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. 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 two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy (哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantageof the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Western 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.9.The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.A.provide some key facts about ConfuciusB.attract the readers' interest in the subjectC.show great respect for the ancient thinkerD.prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations10.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 Chinese11.What is the best title for the passage?A.Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB.Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC.Chinese Culture for WesternersD.Old Thinker with a Big Future12.The passage is likely to appear in ________.A.a biography B.a history paperC.a newspaper D.a philosophy textbookDYou've just come home, after living abroad for a few years. Since you've been away, has this country changed for the better —or for the worse?If you've just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight's holiday, small changes have probably surprised you — anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobile-phone shop to someone in your street moving house.So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15 years living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed — or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned.Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white, middle-class families — all very conservative (保守的). The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism. There are even several shops only for foreigners.Having been an immigrant(移民) myself,I admire people who go overseas to find a job. Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I'd think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they're more open-minded and often work harder than the natives.Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked. But the differences between the place we'd left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soonas we landed.To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening — in Cyprus(塞浦路斯), they're very relaxed — and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal-made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall. Everyone seemed to be on guard. Even the airport car-hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers.But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country. I just wish more people would appreciate what they've got.13.After a short overseas holiday, people tend to ________.A.notice small changesB.expect small changesC.welcome small changesD.exaggerate small changes14.How does Debi look at the foreign settlers?A.Cautiously.B.Positively.C.Sceptically. D.Critically.15.When arriving at the airport in Britain, Christine was shocked by ________.A.the relaxed policemenB.the messy arrivals hallC.the tight securityD.the bank robbers第二节七选五。

It’s bigger than Texas and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes a 62-mile-long floating barrier that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42 % over 10 years.Easy-On ShoesIn 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their solution: the FlyEase. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike FlyEase shoes sells for $ 130.An Airport for Drones (无人机)As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: What kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”.

Because they are receptive to new technology.BI spent most my twenties working for the National Park Service, and I lived a wide variety of government housing, including several shabby but appealing old houses where the wild creatures outnumbered humans. Sometimes I wondered, lying awake at night, how many hearts beat inside those walls. With all that lovely national park habitat protected for their use, why did the animals need to live in my house?My latest essay “The indoor wilds at outdoor parks,” revisits my experiences with wild (non-human!) roommates and officemates in Rocky Mountain National Park. At first, they were considered annoying but not dangerous. Attitudes changed dramatically when hantavirus (汉他病毒) came on the scene, and suddenly those cute, non-housebroken deer mice becamea threat. When I moved on to Canyonlands National Park, I found that every effort had been made to seal off my house from four-footed intruders (入侵者). These efforts mostly worked and later employees moved into new housing. But somehow a rat still managed to chew its way through the floor and drown itself in my toilet. I’m not even going to get started about my coworkers’ experiences with other much scarier animals.The Beaver Meadows Vistor Center in the story was designed by Tailiesin Associated Architects, Frank Lloyed Wright’s firm, after Wright’s death. Working there, I always thought the building was strange. I recently revisited the building while researching a children’s book I am writing about the park. I think I get it now, at least a little.4. What does the underlined word “their” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Some park visitors’.B. Endangered animals’.C. The author’s coworkers’.D. The author’s wild roommates’.5. Why did people show a change in attitude towards deer mice?A. Because a virus was spreading.B. Because people were hurt by them.C. Because people saw a really cute one.D. Because they protected people’s houses.6. What can we infer about the living conditions of the author’s coworkers?A. They were unknown to the author.B. They were acceptable to the author.C. They were no better than the author’s.D. They were much better than the author’s.7. After visiting the Beaver Meadows Vistor Center again, the author .A. could appreciate it betterB. finished a children’sbookC. did research on national parksD. knew it was designed by WrightCIncreasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport”idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announcements and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere”without being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland — a country where the tourism slogan is “Silence, Please”— became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announcements for flights are made only in boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circumstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved flight information display systems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicate with passengers.At Munich Airport, InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of choice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers can tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking times to their destinations.Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple.There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements, along with boarding calls.But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has been adopted in Helsinki.8. What is Angela Gittens, opinion on the silent airport concept?A. It makes airport noise-free.B. It is intended for passengers’ benefit.C. It has changed international airports’ reputation.D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.9. What should passengers pay close attention to at Helsinki Airport?A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.C. The shops’ opening hours.D. The “you are here”display.10. Why is Munich Airport mentioned in the next?A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce InfoGate kiosks.C. To prove Heikki Koski’s words.D. To be compared with Helsinki Airport.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)That was my first ballet performance and I was the lead role. A huge black curtain 11 me from the crowd.

山西省晋中市和诚高中2018-2019学年高二英语周练试题(21)时间:60分钟总分100分一、阅读理解(每题4分,共40分)ABack in 2003 an 86-year-old man drove his Buick through a crowded farmers’ market. Nine people were killed. More than fifty-four people were hurt, fourteen with serious injuries. When he finally stopped, the 86-year-old man got out his car and screamed at people to get out of the way. No alcohol or drugs were found in his system. Apparently, he was just old and confused.This is a frightening accident, and it is not a rare one. There are many examples of elderly drivers driving into swimming pools, houses, storefronts, or worse.In our teenage years, we all heard “driving is not a right; it’s a privilege.” That is still true, and there comes an age when driving is no longer a privilege that can be allowed. After a certain age, eyesight and dementia(痴呆) are very serious concerns. Undoubtedly, these age-related problems affect some older adults’ driving ability. By the time a person is between eighty-five and ninety years old, his or her driving privilege should be examined.Licensing laws vary greatly from state to state, and it’s time for a national law on the maximum age limit for driving. The motivation for this law is safety. Another option is to start with laws that ban anyone over the age of eighty-five from driving after sundown, because driving conditions are not as safe as daylight hours. Still another option that may allow elderly drivers to continue driving could be new technology like a voice warning system that cautions drivers on busy streets or at traffic lights. Finally, since there are laws against driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, shouldn’t some prescription drugs also be included? The average age of 85-year-old is undoubtedly taking at least one prescription drug daily.The thought of an 86-year-old driver with failing eyesight running down the road in a two-ton piece of metal is unsettling to us all. Driving at an advanced age isnot only challenging for the elderly drivers, but also it’s dangerous for the rest of us.1. The first paragraph is written in order to show_________.A. the harm of driving at an old ageB. the importance of traffic safetyC. traffic accidents are on the riseD. many elderly drivers are careless2. The author suggests that there should be new laws against driving __________.A. over eighty-fiveB. between sunset and dawnC. with the help of voice warning systemsD. under the influence of prescription drugs3. The underlined word “unsettling” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.A. disappointingB. worryingC. touchingD. interesting4. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. How to keep old people safe on the road?B. Are drivers well protected by licensing laws?C. Should there be an age limit for elderly drivers?D. Is driving a right or a privilege for an old person?BI first came across the concept of pay-what-you-can cafes last summer in Boone, N.C., where I ate at F.A.R.M (Feed All Regardless of Means) Café. You can volunteer to earn your meal, pay the suggested price($10) or less, or you can overpay—paying it forward for a future customer’s meal. My only regret after eating there was not having a chance to give my time. S o as soon as Healthy World Café opened in York in April, I signed up for a volunteer shift(轮班).F.A.R.M and Healthy World are part of a growing trend of community cafés. In 2003, Denise Cerreta opened the first in Salt Lake City. Cerreta now runs the One World Everybody Eats Foundation, helping others copy her pay-what-you can model.“I think the community café is truly a hand up, not a handout,” Cerreta said. She acknowledged that soup kitchens(施粥所) have a place in society, but people typically don’t feel good about going there.“One of the values of the community café is that we have another approach,” she said. “Everyone eats here, no one needs to know whether you volunteered, overpaid or underpaid.”The successful cafés not only address hunger and food i nsecurity but also become necessary parts of their neighborhood –whether it’s a place to learn skills or hear live music. Some teach cooking to seniors; some offer free used books. Eating or working there is a reminder that we are all in this world together.My 10 am---1pm shift at World-Healthy-Café began with the café manager – one of the two paid staff members. Our volunteer crew wasn’t the most orderly, but we managed to prepare and serve meals with a lot of laughs in between. At the end of my shift, I ordered my earned meal at the counter, together with other volunteers. After lunch, I walked out the door, with a handful of new friends, music in my head and a satisfied belly and heart.5. What is the advantage of community cafés compared with soup kitc hens?A. People can have free food.B. People can maintain their dignity.C. People can stay as long as they like.D. People can find their places in society.6. Why are community cafés becoming popular in the neighborhoods?A. They bring people true friendships.B. They help to bring people together.C. They create a lot of job opportunities.D.They support local economic development.7. How did the author feel about working at Healthy World Café?A. It paid well.B. It changed her.C. It was beneficial.D. It was easy for her.CWe took a rare family road trip to the Adirondacks in late August,and it wasas refreshing and exhausting as family vacations tend to be.Toward the end of our long drive home, even the kids were leaning forward in their seats urging my lead foot on.At that point in a road trip,even sixty-five miles per hour feels slow. We have become numb to our speed and numb to the road signs flashing by.My family lives on the edge of Lancaster County. Only thirty miles from home,I hit the brakes,and we began to roll,slowly,behind a horse-drawn carriage. We began to open our eyes again.We saw familiar green hills and the farm with the best watermelons. I rolled down the windows, and we breathed again.Just-cut hay and a barn full of dairy cattle.At five miles per hour,you remember what you forget at sixty-five.You are thinking about a place,even when you are moving from place to place.I am a placemaker. A homemaker, too. I am a mother of a young kid at home,and also a writer and a gardener.But,for me,those roles are wrapped up with the one big thing I want to do with the rest of my life:I want to cultivate a place and share it with others.The place I make with my family is a red-brick farmhouse built in l880. It has quite a few nineteenth-century bedrooms and a few acres of land,and we love nothing more than to fill them with neighbors and friends. We grow vegetables and flowers,keep a baker’s dozen of egg—laying chickens,and,since we moved in three years ago,we have planted many,many trees.Living with my life’s purpose does not allow for much travel. I need to be here,feeding the chickens and watering the tomatoes. Any extra in the budget,and we spend it on trees.But I learned something at the end of our family road trip.Travel can help me in the task of caring for my own place.When I slow down and pay attention to the road between here and there,travel tells me the connections between my place and all the other places.8.What does the author try to express in the first paragraph?A.The tiredness of her past family life. B.Her disappointment at the family road trip.C.The family’s eagerness to return home.D.Kids’excitement at driving fast on the road.9.Why did the author slow her car some miles from her home?A.Because she made a way for a horse-drawn carriage.B.Because she enjoyed the scenery along the road.C.Because she needed a break after the long drive.D.Because she wanted to get rid of a fast-paced life.10.What can be the best title of the passage?A.On the Way Home B.Never Travel againC.Escape from a Family Life D.Life on the Farm二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)In the week before Christmas, one Delta airlines pilot gave a sad Arizona family a gift that no one else could.Father of three, Jay short died after a ___11_with lung cancer Dec, 16th.

The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity — roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $ 36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel.The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guests staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard,hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors arebusiness people who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to get a free meal, but generally I don’t think people will take advantage of our pro gramme.”Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition and 36 % of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen. dk. US environmental website treehugger. com recently voted Copenhag en the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as a symbol of the hotel’s green profile (形象).”If successful,the electric bicycle meal programme will be spread to all Crowne Plaza hotels in the UK, the hotel said in a statement.5.

By linking a smart phone to a bicycle.D. By monitoring his or her carbon footprint.7. Who are most likely to enter for the programme?A. The poor local people.B. The environment activists.C. Health-conscious hotel guests.D. Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.CThe Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed-breakers on major highways and roads, in an attempt to check speeding and careless driving,and eventually make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India’s transport ministe r Nitin Gadkari tweeted.The visual illusions (幻象) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down automatically. Earlier this month, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from highways, which are considered to be a danger to safety for high-speed vehicles.India has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health Organisation, over 200,00 people are killed by road accidents due to poor application of road safety laws. This is considerably higher than its official figures of 141,526 for 2020.The use of visual illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American city of Philadelphia in 2020, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings.In India, cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, two artists, mother and daughter have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of this year. The artists say their motto is “to increase the attention of drivers”, and that the concept has been successfully tested in zones where accidents easily occur on a highway.However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India’s decision does not consider the safety of a large number of walkers. In the end, the new policy may be just one step towards improving road safety.8. Accoding to the passage, 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers in India aims to .A. Repalce all speed breakers from highways.B. Encourage essential requirements of speed breakers.C. Check speeding and careless driving on all highways.D. Remind divers to speed down voluntarily for road safety.9. What caused the high number of road accident deaths in India?A. Speeding motorists.B. Floating 3D crossings.C. Free use of visual illusions.D. Bad application of traffic laws.10. The author explains the experiment of 3D zebra crossings in India by .A. giving examples.B. analysing causes.C. providing figures.D. making comparisons.二、完形填空(每题2分,共40分)Do you ever feel like you are studying a mad rush of one subject after another?

It began ordinarily enough, “How do you like driving a cab?”“It’s OK,” I said. “I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes. How about you?” However, his reply intrigued me.“I would not change jobs even if I could make twice as much money by doing something else.”I’d never heard that before. “What do you do?”“I’m in the neurology (神经学) department at New York Hospital.”Then I decided to ask for this man’s help. We were not far from the airport.“Could I ask you a big favor? I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a part-time job, but a 15-year-old can’t get hired easily. Is there any possibility that you could get him some kind of summer job?”He didn't respond for a while. Finally, he said, “Well, the medical students have a summer research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school record.” I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag, and he wrote his name and number on it and paid me. It was the last time I had ever seen him.After I nagged (唠叨), yelled, and finally threatened to cut off his pocket money, my son Robert sent off his grades to the guy the next morning.Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, my son was excited. He handed me a letter from my passenger, saying he was to call my passenger’s secretary for an interview.Robert got the job. He did minor tasks, unpaid, but he fitted in well. The following summer, he worked at the hospital again with more responsibility. As high school graduation neared, Dr Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for Robert and he was accepted by Brown University. Finally, Dr Robert Stern, the son of a taxicab driver, became the chief resident (首席住院医师) at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center.Some might call it fate, and I guess it is. But it shows that something as ordinary as a taxi ride can change your life.1.What does the underlined word “intrigued” in the second paragra ph mean?A.Interest. B.Confuse.C.Benefit.

To gather information for my paper, I started visiting patients at Dr. Sardjito Hospital.One evening, I was in a ward (病房), desperately “hunting” for the final three patients I needed to complete my study. Holding a patient questionnaire, I walked towards a room. A patient called Ms A was lying in bed, clearly still weak. There were no relatives or friends with her. Even the bed beside her was empty. I sat down in a chair next to her bed, and in a low voice I introduced myself and asked if I could gather some information from her. She agreed.After I finished, I prepared to leave. Before I could stand up, Ms A said, “I haven’t seen you here before. Are you new?” “Not really, Ma’am. It’s just that I don’t come here every day,” I replied. Ms A started talking about herself. She shared her difficulties and sufferings, talked about her husband, who was killed in a car accident, and her struggles to earn money.Without realizing it, I had begun holding Ms A’s hand. Finally, Ms A stopped talking, “I’m very sorry for keeping you here to listen to my problems, but I feel relieved now.” Tears fell from the corner of her eyes. “It’s OK, Ma’am. It’s part of my duty,” I said.A few days later, when I returned to the ward, I discovered Ms A had left hospital as her condition had improved.Ms A taught me the most important lessons a doctor can learn. Sometimes patients do not need expensive medicine. They just need someone with the patience and willingness to lend an ear and spare a little of their time.36. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. A desperate patientB. Useful conversation skillsC. My unexpected teacherD. Any help is better than no help37. Why did the author visit the patients at Dr. Sardjito Hospital?A. It was her duty.B. She needed medical information for her paper.C. She was going to get a good position there.D.

We can conclude from the text that _______.A. a doctor must learn how to treat each patientB. the author’s treatment made Ms A recover quicklyC. it is doctors’ duty to listen to whatever patients sayD. listening is sometimes the best thing a doctor can do for patients四、单词拼写(以正确的形式)(10*2=20)1.Last night we got together and had a______ (令人满意的) meal.2.He is not ________ (合格的) to teach English.3.The job is OK but the ________(工资)is not very good.4.I find all the ________(员工)in our office are nice.5.Would you like to live in a modern flat or do you prefer a ________ (传统的) house?6.We are ________ (感激的) to you for your help.7.Our business has ________ (遭受) from lack of investment.8.He has ________ (申请)for a job to our company.9.He ________ (提出) to help me when I got into trouble.10.They are living under very ________ (充满压力的) conditions.和诚2019-2020学年高二英语周练答题卡班级________ 考号________ 姓名________一、单项选择。

He died on January 11,1928. In his youth, Hardy read much and dreamt of becoming a poet, but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect, winning a prize for design. The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training.For five years Hardy worked hard to practice writing poetry, but when he was twentyseven, he turned to fiction. His first novel finished by 1867, but according to the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it. After he abandoned his first novel, his another novel Desperate Remedies, appeared in 1871. During the next twentyfive years he published ten more novels and two collections of short stories.Under the Greenwood Tree(1872) was never surpassed(超越) in happy and delicate perfection of art. This and his next novel, A Pair of Blue Eyes(1873), began to show deep irony(讽刺) which is so obvious throughout Hardy’s writings.Far from the Madding Crowd(1874) was his first popular success. It shows Hardy’s amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters, an organic part of the action of his story. This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment, which included The Return of the Native, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, his masterpiece, and Jude the Obscure. Not until he was fiftyeight years old was his first collection of poems published, and he was sixtyfour when the first part of his drama The Dynasts surprised the literary world.1.How did Thomas Hardy benefit from his architectural career?A.He could practice writing while working.B.He made a lot of money to support his writing.C.He found material for his novels and poems.D.He applied architectural knowledge in his novels.2.Wh at is Thomas Hardy’s Under the Greenwood Tree considered to be?A.One of his masterworks.B.His first popular success.C.His best novel in perfection of art.D.One of his best collections of poems.3.Which of the following is one of his novels of character and environment?A.Desperate Remedies. B.A Pair of Blue Eyes.C.Tess of the d’Urbervilles. D.The Dynasts.4.What type of writing is this text?A.A novel. B.A biography.C.A book review. D.A news report.BWhen I was three years old, I couldn't speak.It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.One day, I was shadowing(尾随)my mother.She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met.She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿)her mouth's movements until I formed a word.It turned out that I'm deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right.Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I've never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow.Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side.That's my reality when I sleep on my “good ear” ,and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.People call my deaf side my “bad ear”, but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don't.In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.Owning a hearing aid hasn't always felt good, however.On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for show and tell.As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren't those for old men?” At that moment, I felt different.It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.But it's not just school kids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens.Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy pletely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almostimpossible to find.And with hearing aids costing around $2,500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things that others take for granted.As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations—I'm lucky.I'm deaf, but I can still hear everything.I've been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human.And when it comes to sleeping, I'm even superhuman.5.How does the author view his hearing difficulty?A.It's a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.B.It gave him a chance to experience something special.C.It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.D.It helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.6.What can be inferred from the passage about the author?A.He was born deaf.B.He is optimistic and helpful.C.His family and classmates have supported him a lot.D.The hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.7.What is the author's attitude toward his life?A.Grateful. B.Anxious.C.Excited. D.Disappointed.8.What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?A.To give advice on life to disabled people.B.To show how difficult life is for disabled people.C.To share his experience of treating a disadvantage with gratitude.D.To show the convenience a hearing aid could bring.二、七选五(5*3=15)Taking care of a sick loved one can put stress on your health.When taking care of the other person, you may ignore your own physical needs.You may find that your own health is failing.If you fall ill, you won't be able to help.__1__ Eat well.When things seem out of control, you may have no time to focus on good eating habits.__2__ Both of those put stress on you.Try to eat as healthily as you can, even if sometimes you have to rely on simple meals like salads.Try to get enough sleep.Sleep can also be difficult when you're caring for a loved one.You may be too worried to sleep at times, or the task may interrupt your sleep.__3__ Therefore, try to get as much as you can.Take time to exercise.Exercising will also help you keep healthy while you're caring for a loved one.Exercise can reduce your stress level.__4__ So you'll need to find ways to work it into your schedule.You can take a short walk a couple of times a day or do yoga at home.__5__ It can be easy to overlook(忽视)the health problems in yourself when you're caring for someone else.If you fall ill, that does not do anyone any good.So it's best to make sure you're in good health.A.Don't ignore signs of illness in yourself.B.Therefore, it's important to take care of yourself.C.You may not eat much, or you may end up eating junk food.D.Not getting enough sleep can make you less effective in the task.E.However, it can be difficult when you are taking care of a loved one.F.The best plan is to visit a doctor regularly to make sure you're in good health.G.Don't be afraid to ask for help when you're ill, as that can help take some of burden off you.三、单句语法填空(10*2=20)1.Before he could run away, she __________(seize)him by the collar。

It began ordinarily enough, “How do you like driving a cab?”“It’s OK,” I said. “I make a living and meet int eresting people sometimes. How about you?” However, his reply intrigued me.“I would not change jobs even if I could make twice as much money by doing something else.”I’d never heard that before. “What do you do?”“I’m in the neurology (神经学) department at New York Hospital.”Then I decided to ask for this man’s help. We were not far from the airport.“Could I ask you a big favor? I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a part-time job, but a 15-year-old can’t get hired easily. Is there any possibility that you could get him some kind of summer job?”He didn't respond for a while. Finally, he said, “Well, the medical students have a summer research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school record.” I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag, and he wrote his name and number on it and paid me. It was the last time I had ever seen him.After I nagged (唠叨), yelled, and finally threatened to cut off his pocket money, my son Robert sent off his grades to the guy the next morning.Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, my son was excited. He handed me a letter from my passenger, saying he was to call my passenger’s secretary for an interview.Robert got the job. He did minor tasks, unpaid, but he fitted in well. The following summer, he worked at the hospital again with more responsibility. As high school graduation neared, Dr Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for Robert and he was accepted by Brown University. Finally, Dr Robert Stern, the son of a taxicab driver, became the chief resident (首席住院医师) at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center.Some might call it fate, and I guess it is. But it shows that something as ordinary as a taxi ride can change your life.1.What does the underlined word “intrigued” in the second paragraph mean?A.Interest. B.Confuse.C. Benefit. D.Challenge.2.After the author got the passenger’s information, he ____________.A.helped his son get the summer job immediatelyB.found his son wasn’t interested in getting a summer job C.had difficulty persuading his son to send his school record D.asked for the passenger’s help more than once3.What can we learn according to the last two paragraphs?A.Robert was paid well for his hard work in the summer job.B.Robert achieved little progress during his summer job.C.The small summer job led to Robert’s career.D.Robert became a doctor in Dr Plum’s hospital.4.The author develops the article mainly by ________.A.providing examples B.following the natural time orderC.making comparisons D.presenting causes and effects二、阅读七选五(共5小题,每题2分,共10分)French Universities to Offer More Classes in EnglishFrance aims to bring more foreign students to its universities by offering more classes taught in English.France is home to famous universities like the Sorbonne in Paris and several leading business schools. __5__ But it ranks(排名) behind the US, Britain and Australia in the total number of foreign students who study there.__6__ The country has seen increased competition from Germany, Russia, Canada and China.Under the new plan, France will ease student visa requirements. __7__ Starting next March, foreigners who have earned a French master's degree will be able to receive a residence visa(居留签证).

Officials said the low cost of education in France leads students from other countries to believe that the quality of a French education is lower than what other countries offer. Beginning in September 2019, non-European students will pay 2,770 euros a year for a bachelor's degree and 3,770 euros for graduate degrees. __9__France will use the extra money to build better education facilities and increase the number of scholarships for foreign students.A.Student visa applications also will be available online.B.That's why we need to welcome more foreign students.C.The country is a popular choice among non-English-speaking students.D.That is still much less costly than some other European countries, however.E.

(15*3=45)AAfter a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your body relaxes (放松) little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts (变换) back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Though your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend (建议) breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.1 The text suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you _____.A. suffer from poor healthB. feel tired and nervousC. dream more oftenD. breathe quickly2. During REM, _____.A. you move restlesslyB. you start dreamingC. your mind stops workingD. your eyeballs move quickly3 The underlined word "drowsy" in the last paragraph probably means_____.A. lazyB. sleepyC. relaxedD. pleased4. A good title for this text might be _____.A. DreamsB. SleepC. Good HealthD. Work and RestBZinc (锌) is one of about 20 elements necessary for good health. It ispresent in the body in a very small amount, but it makes it possible forimportant chemical actions to be carried out in cells. Scientists are justbeginning to discover how zinc and other elements work.Researchers first studied zinc as a way to speed recovery. Dr. WaltorPowys, formerly with the United States Air Force, noted that the laboratoryanimals recovered faster when some matters were added to their food. One ofthese matters was zinc. Dr. Powys later tested the zinc treatment on anAmerican airman recovering from medical operations. The airman who receivedzinc sulphate (硫酸盐) recovered in half of the usual time. Other doctorsstudied persons who had a number of strange disorders. The doctors learnedthat all of these problems were caused by lack of zinc in the body. Theytreated these disorders successfully by giving the patients zinc sulphate.The amount of zinc in the body can be found by examining blood and hair.A lack of this important element is not uncommon among people in bothindustrial and developing countries. Zinc is found in most high protein (蛋白质) foods, such as meat, milk, fish and eggs. It is also found in whole grains. But many people do not eat enough of these foods. Food markets should add these elements so that more people could get needed amount of these necessary matters.5. Which of the following statements is true?A.

Today, however, we need not worry about feeling pain during the operation. The sick person falls into a kind of sleep, andwhen he awakes the operation is finished. But these happy conditions are fairly new. It is not many years since a man who had to have operation felt all its pain.Long ago, operation had usually to be done while the sick man could feel everything. The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best for him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.Soon after 1770, Joseph Priestly discovered a gas, which is now called “laughing gas”. Laughing gas became known in America. Yo ung men and women went to Parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells noticed that people did not seem to feel pain when they were using the gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself. He asked a friend to help him. Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Wells' teeth. Wells felt no pain at all. As he did not know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out. Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.13.

He died on January 11,1928. In his youth, Hardy read much and dreamt of becoming a poet, but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect, winning a prize for design. The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training.For five years Hardy worked hard to practice writing poetry, but when he was twenty-seven, he turned to fiction. His first novel finished by 1867, but according to the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it. After he abandoned his first novel, his another novel Desperate Remedies, appeared in 1871. During the next twenty-five years he published ten more novels and two collections of short stories.Under the Greenwood Tree(1872) was never surpassed(超越) in happy and delicate perfection of art. This and his next novel, A Pair of Blue Eyes(1873), began to show deep irony(讽刺) which is so obvious throughout Hardy’s writings.Far from the Madding Crowd(1874) was his first popular success. It shows Hardy’s amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters, an organic part of the action of his story. This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment, which included The Return of the Native, Tess of the d’Urbervilles, his masterpiece, and Jude the Obscure. Not until he was fifty-eight years old was his first collection of poems published, and he was sixty-four when the first part of his drama The Dynasts surprised the literary world.1.How did Thomas Hardy benefit from his architectural career?A.He could practice writing while working.B.He made a lot of money to support his writing.C.He found material for his novels and poems.D.He applied architectural knowledge in his novels.2.What is Thomas Hardy’s Under the Greenwood Tree considered to be?A.One of his masterworks.B.His first popular success.C.His best novel in perfection of art.D.One of his best collections of poems.3.Which of the following is one of his novels of character and environment?A.Desperate Remedies. B.A Pair of Blue Eyes.C.Tess of the d’Urbervilles. D.The Dynasts.4.What type of writing is this text?A.A novel. B.A biography.C.A book review. D.A news report.BWhen I was three years old, I couldn't speak.It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.One day, I was shadowing(尾随)my mother.She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met.She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿)her mouth's movements until I formed a word.It turned out that I'm deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right.Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I've never lived in a state of self-hating sorrow.Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side.That's my reality when I sleep on my “good ear” ,and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.People call my deaf side my “bad ear”,but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don't.In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.Owning a hearing aid hasn't always felt good, however.On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for show and tell.As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren't those for old men?” At that moment, I felt different.It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.But it's not just school kids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens.Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy pletely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.And with hearing aids costing around $2,500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things that others take for granted.As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations—I'm lucky.I'm deaf, but I can still hear everything.I've been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human.And when it comes to sleeping, I'm even superhuman.5.How does the author view his hearing difficulty?A.It's a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.B.It gave him a chance to experience something special.C.It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.D.It helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.6.What can be inferred from the passage about the author?A.He was born deaf.B.He is optimistic and helpful.C.His family and classmates have supported him a lot.D.The hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.7.What is the author's attitude toward his life?A.Grateful.
