天全中学2015—2016学年上期高二第16周周考英语试题第一节：阅读理解〔12*4=48分〕AIf you can speak English, you know a lot of English words. You can read, speak and understand. But there is another kind of language you need to know—the language of the body, a part of what is called non-verbal communication. All over the world, people “talk〞 with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they put their hands together. What do Americans and the British do?Americans are more informal than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable.British people are more quiet. They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask you home.When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends(on one cheek only). When a man meets a man friend, he just smiles, and says“Hello〞. Men do not kiss each other. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.1. Peopleuse body language.A. in AsiaB. in America and BritainC. in Japan, America and BritainD. all over the world2. When an American man meets a woman for the first time, he probably.A. kisses her on the cheekB. just smilesC. talks with his eyesD. shakes hands3. From this passage we can come to the idea that.A. most of the body language in different countries may be differentB. most of the body language in different countries is the sameC. all the body language in different countries is differentD. none of the body language in different countries is the same4. Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?A. Americans and the British share the same body language.B. Men and women share the same body language.C. Body language is the main part of written language.D. Body language is the system of human expression by signs, movements and gestures.B“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it! 〞That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.All children soon learn what “Don’t touch! 〞 means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy, such as food, clothes and so on. To see something well, we have to touch it.The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad floor. All feel different under your feet.There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch! There you can feel every thing on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you’ll really see! 〞5. By touching things.A. you will have a strange feelingB. you will learn how to reach outC. you can tell the difference between themD. you can tell what colors they are6. Which of the following can be the best title of the story?A. Touching by FeelingB. To See or to FeelC. To See Better—FeelD. Ways of Feeling7. Why does it say, “At first, it is not easy to feel these things? 〞A. The things are used by people, too.B. People are used to the things.C. People know how to use the things.D. The things are easy to feel.8. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Touching can help people learn things better.B. Our feet, fingers, hands and skin can help us enjoy music.C. People have to learn to see by feeling as they grow up.D. Visitors cannot feel the things on show in some museums.CWhat will our future look like? As for the future home, cookers will be set so that you can cook a complete meal at_the_touch_of_a_switch. Television will give the information on prices at the nearby shops as well as news and enjoyment. Visionphones will bring pictures as well as sound to telephone conversation. Machines will control temperature, lighting, enjoyment and gardening, etc. At work, robots will take over most jobs and working hours will fall to under 30 hours a week. Holidays will get longer. Six weeks will be the holidays every year.What most shocks us is that in the future it will be possible to use virtual reality(虚拟现实)to bring the dead back to life. People will drag out their old and boring home movies and choose a relative to bring back to life. The visual will be combined with records about that person to create a virtual relative. Then the family can have a chat with that relative, keep it running, and live with it. The experience will be like living with a ghost.9．This passage is mainly about________.A．what our future life will be likeB．how machines help us with our life C．what the use of robots will beD．how to live with a ghost10．The underlined words“at the touch of a switch〞in the first paragraph mean________.A．when you are beside the switches of the cookersB．on touching the cookers C．the moment you turn the cookers onD．as soon as you touch the cookers 11．It's true that in the future________.A．people will enjoy their holidays for 42 days a yearB．robots will do everything for manC．people will see instead of hearing each other when they are talking on the visionphoneD．none of the above12．In the future, machines can do the following except that________.A．machines can control people's body temperatureB．machines can control lighting C．machines can do gardeningD．machines can give people enjoyment第二语法填空〔共10 小题；每一小题2 分，共20 分〕A：Hello, everyone.

ACoolest Bookstores in the WorldWhere did you buy your last book? Chances are that you bought it on the Internet. But if you did, you missed the remarkable experience of browsing in a real bookstore. These days bookstores offer lots of great books and plenty more.Eslite Dunnan StoreTime magazine once named Eslite Dunnan Store in Taiwan province, China "Asia's best bookstore".

His team was facing adversity（逆境）on the court and he was playing in a hostile environment-it was the opponent's home gym filled with their supporters，and Nathan's team was trailing（落后）for three quarters of the game. As for me，I had been dismissed from my job earlier in the day.During my drive home，I kept telling myself that I will find work again in a short time-I am confident in my experience and abilities. This is the same belief that I tried to instill in my son.The basketball game entered the fourth quarter with Nathan's team still trailing. I saw the determination on his，as well as his teammates'faces as they fought back to not only tie the game（平局），but then go ahead by three points. Then，a player from the other team made an unbelievable shot to tie the game up again. With a tie game and seconds on the clock，Nathan found himself with the ball and with skill and confidence，he proceeded to make the basket with a defender hanging all over him. The other player was called for a foul（犯规）.As Nathan stood at the foul line preparing for a shot that would put his team up by three points，I saw the focus and determination on his face，there was no room for self doubt. Nathan was able to turn out all the distractions and nail the free throw with such skill，it was as if he had done it a thousand times.As I sat there，my heart bursting with pride，it dawned on me. I had taught him perseverance in the face of adversity，and he had just taught me the same lesson. That brief moment of self-doubt and feeling sorry for myself was blown away by the actions of my son on the basketball court. He will play in the finals，but it doesn't matter if he wins or loses，at this moment，we both won.4. What did the author estimate his son's team would be like at first？______A.

Life Goes Just Like Playing Basketball.B. It Matters Whether to Win or Lose.C. A Lesson in Life and Basketball.D. Father And Son in Life.CFor several months, Cara has been working up the courage to approach her mom about what she saw on Instagram. Not long ago, the 11-year-old girl discovered that her mom had been posting her photos for much of her life. “I’ve wanted to bring it up. It’s strange to see myself up there, and sometimes there are pictures I don’t like of myself,” she said.Like most other modern kids, Cara grew up under the influence of social media. Facebook, Twiter and YouTube were all founded before she was born. Instagram has been around since she was a toddler (学步儿童). While many kids may not yet have accounts themselves, their parents, schools, sports teams have been organizing an online presence for them since birth. It is a shock to know that details about their lives have been shared online without their permission or knowledge. And this has become a common experience for many teenagers.Recently a parenting blogger (博主)said that despite her 14-year-old daughter’s horror at discovering that her mother had shared years of highly personal stories and information about her online, she simply could not stop doing it.But it’s not just crazy mommy bloggers who share their children’s information on social media. Plenty of average parents do the same. There’s even a special word for it: sharenting (晒娃). Almost a quarter of children begin their digital lives when parents upload their prenatal sonogram scans (产前超声波扫描) to the Internet, according to a study conducted by the Internet-security firm A VG. The study also found that 92 percent of kids under the age of 23already have their own unique digital identity.8. How does Cara feel about her mom’s behavior?A. It’s supportive.B. It’s appropriate.C. It’s annoying.D. It’s favorable.9. Who is most likely to share children’s information?A. A quarter of students.B. Some crazy doctors.C. Kids under the age of 2.D. Many ordinary parents.10. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. Fathers don’t like to share their kids’ information on social media.B. 25% of children begin their digital lives before they are born.C. The word “sharenting” can be found 10 years ago.D. A VG is the name of an internet company.11. What can be a suitable title for the article?A. Growing up on the InternetB. A New Term BornC. Parents Addicted to BloggingD. The Children’s HorrorDSome cities and lawmakers are resisting crime-fighting tech owing to bias (偏见) and accuracy concerns. Police departments around the U.S. are asking citizens to trust them to use facial recognition software as a handy tool in their crime-fighting toolbox. But some lawmakers — and even some technology giants — are against it.Take the western Massachusetts city of Springfield, where many residents are Latino or black. Springfield police say they have no plans to use facial recognition systems, but some City Council members are moving to block any future government use of the technology anyway.At an October hearing on the subject, Springfield City Councilman, Orlando Ramos, defended the technology. “The facial recognition technology does not drop a net from the sky and put you to prison,” he said, noting that it could serve as a useful investigative tool. However, he doesn’t want to take any risks. “It would only lead to more racial discrimination.” he said, citing studies that found higher error rates for facial recognition software used to identify women and people with darker skins.Similar debates across the country are highlighting racial issues and concerns about the technology’s accuracy. Axon, which supplies body-worn cameras nationwide, had already formed an artificial intelligence ethics board (伦理委员会)that concluded facial recognition technology isn’t yet dependable enough to justify its use on police cameras. Axon Chief Executive Rick Smith said, “Even if facial recognition software was perfectly accurate, theability to track people raises privacy concerns. “Do we want everybody who walks near a police officer to get their face identified and logged in a database?” he said.Nevertheless, Todd Pastorini, general manager at biometric forensics (生物取证) company DataWorks Plus, said it’s the “extremely effective” method of running images through photos to help identify a suspect. “Society and the public are going to get frustrated, if governments refuse to adopt a technology that keeps improving”, he said. In his eyes, facial recognition hits are just one part of an investigation.12. What is Orlando Ramos’ attitude towards facial recognition?A. Hopeful.B. Cautious.C. Ambiguous.D. Tolerant.13. What is one focus of the debates about facial recognition?A. Gender discrimination.B. Speed limit.C. Accuracy rate.D. Steadiness control.14. What does Rick Smith think of facial recognition?A. It appears to cause prejudice.B. It brings about privacy concerns.C. Its technology is reliable.D. Its accuracy needs improving.15. What can we learn from the passage?A. Facial recognition tool meets with resistance.B. All the people disapprove of facial recognition.C. Facial recognition is the only tool of investigation.D. Governments should ban facial recognition.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。

天全中学2015—2016学年下期高二第2周周考英语试题〔总分为100分时间40分钟〕班级：姓名：成绩：第一节：阅读理解〔8*3=24分〕ANature responds to climate change.To understand it，we need to monitor key life cycle events—flowering，the appearance of leaves，the first frog calls of the spring—all around the world.But scientists can’t be everywhere so they’re turning to non­scientists，sometimes called citizen scientists，for help.A group of scientists and educators set up an organization last year called the National Phenology Network.“Phenology〞 is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.One of the group’s first efforts depends on scientists and non­scientists alike to collect data about plant flowering and leafing every year.The program，called Project BudBurst，collects life cycle data on different kinds of usual plants from across the United States.“People don’t have to be plant experts—they just have to look around and see what’s in their neighborhood，〞 says Jennifer Schwartz，an adviser with the project.“As we collect thi s data，we’ll be able to predict how plants and communities of plants and animals will respond as the climate changes.〞That data will help scientists predict not only how natural communities may change but also how these changes will affect people.Scientists monitoring lilac flowering in the Western United States reported that in years when lilacs bloomed early—before May 20th—wildfires later in the summer and fall are larger and more severe.“Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell，〞 Jennifer says.Improved monitoring is an important step toward predicting how natural communities will respond to climate change.“The best way for us to increase our knowledge of how plants and animals are responding to climate change is to increase the amount of data we have，〞she says.“That’s why we need citizen scientists to get as much information as many places on as many species over as long a time period as we can.〞1．The National Phenology Network is set up to________.A．research how nature makes response to climate changeB．keep a record of what is happening in natureC．make a study of the first frog calls of the springD．judge what plants will die out in the future2．The task of Project BudBurst is to________.A．grow more plants to improve the climateB．collect information about usual plantsC．make citizens tell different plantsD．find out how many kinds of plants there are in America3．By saying “Lilac blooming could serve as an alarm bell〞in Paragraph 6，Jennifer meant________.A．lilac flowers could make people feel anxious or afraidB．lilacs could warn people of the danger of wildlifeC．the blooming of lilacs could predict the happening of wildfiresD．the flowers of lilacs could be used to wake people up4．This passage is mainly about________.A．why we need to collect data about natureB．when an alarm bell sounds for natureC．what citizen scientists are in AmericaD．how nature responds to climate changeBEvery New Year brings renewed expectation for a change，for a better life and for a better you.That’s a wonderf ul thing，because this fresh start gives us a chance to reinvent our lives and ourselves.Here’s how.Let goMany times we are held back by our previous failures，emotions and barriers.This is all old baggage.Let everything unhappy from the past go.Let go of failures.Let go of fears you’ve built up.Let go of your ideas about what your life has to be like.Let go of long­held beliefs and habits which seem to be burdens to you.Clear away distractions (分心)Clear away email，your favourite blogs and news websites.Clear away the iPhone or BlackBerry，and clear away all the chores that pull at your attention.In fact，if you can，shut off the Internet for a while.You can come back to it after you take a break.Decide what matters most todayForget about your goals for all of this year.Instead，decide what you want to do today.What matters most to you and your life?
