She could accomplish in a day what most people couldn’t in a week Make friends with timeMy grand mother knew that time was important and that it shouldn’t be w asted. She knew that you shouldn’t put off until tomorrow the thing you should do today .She knew that if you didn’t learn how to make friends with time, it would become your enemy.Time is an arrowTime is like an arrow : it begins in the past ,travels through the present and it aims directly at the future. When we are young we don’t think much about that .If anything, we think time stands still or moves too slowly: “Will the bell ever ring?Will this boring class ever end?〞Of course, time does spend up when we’re trying to finish an exam: “Five minutes left?! But I still have ten questions to answer!〞Key to successManaging your time is an important part of being successful, And many business people think that being able to use their time well is key to their success.My grandmother wasn’t a business woman but she was just as successful in managing her time.

How to make good use of timeCTo extinguish (熄灭) different kinds of fires, several types of fire extinguishers have been invented. They must be ready for immediate use when fire breaks out. Most portable (手提式的) kinds operate for less than a minute, so they are useful only on small fires. The law requires ships, trains, buses and planes to carry extinguishers. Since fuel, oxygen and heat must be present in order for fire to exist, one or more of these things must be removed or reduced to extinguish a fire. If the heat is reduced by cooling the material below a certain temperature, the fire goes out. The cooling method is the most common way to put out a fire. Water is the best cooling material because it is low in cost and easy to get.Another method of extinguishing fire is by cutting off the oxygen. This is usually done by covering the fire with sand, steam or some other things. A blanket may be used do cover a small fire.A third method is called separation, which includes removing the fuel, or material easy to burn, from a fire, so that it can find no fuel.The method that is used to put out a fire depends upon the type of fire. Fires have been grouped in three classes. Fires in wood, paper, cloth and the like are called Class A fires. These materials usually help keep the fire on.Such fires can be stopped most readily by cooling with water.8．If a fire breaks out on a bus, which of the follow should be ready there for you to use?A. SandB. WaterC. A blanketD. An extinguisher9．To cover a small piece of burning wood with a basin〔盆〕in order to stop the fire is an example of .A. cutting off the oxygenB. reducing the heatC. removing the fuelD. separating the fire10．In choosing how to put out a fire, we should first be clear about .A. when it breaks outB. what kind it isC. how it comes aboutD. where it takes place11．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Another type of extinguishersB. Another class of firesC. How fires break out.D. How fires can be prevented.DThere is some unwelcome news for students preparing for exams --you don't need the break as much as you may think that makes you feel less tired.Scientists have long assumed that willpower is a limited resource, which is why you feel the need to have a rest, have a snack and come back to a task when you're feeling better. They argued that the only way to restore willpower was by rest, food or entertainment.But psychologists have challenged this theory, saying weak willpower is all in your head. They found that people's beliefs in willpower determine how long and how well they'll be able to work on a tough mentalexercise. “If you think of willpower as something that's limited, you're more likely to be tired when you perform a difficult task,〞said Prof. Job. “But if you think of willpower as something that is not easily used up, you can go on and on.〞The researchers designed four experiments to test students' beliefs in willpower. After a tiring task, those, who believed or were led to believe that willpower is a limited resource, performed worse on concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over. They also found that leading up to final exam week, students who believed the limited resource theory ate junk food 24 percent more often than those who believed they had more control in resisting temptationMr. Job said. “ Students who may already have trouble studying are being told that their power of concentration is limited, and they need to take frequent breaks. But a belief in willpower as a non-limited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.〞12. The theory that willpower is limited supports that _________.A. people must eat snacks when they feel tiredB. people do need a break to restore their willpowerC. there’s no way to strengthen people’s willpowerD. weak willpower doesn’t affect people’s life much13. What have the scientists long believed regarding willpower?A. It is in the charge of people.B. It is a limited resource.C. There is no way to restore willpower.D. It doesn’t easily run out.14.Which of the following best helps the students to prepare better for their exams?A. Push themselves even if they want to take a break.B. Don’t eat fast food while studying.C. Remind themselves willpower is not limited.D. Stay in a comfortable and quiet place.15. What’s the best title for the passage?A. A new theory about willpowerB. How to build strong willpowerC. The great influence of willpowerD. Willpower doesn’t last lo第二节〔共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分〕阅读以下短文,从短文后所给的七个选项中〔A、B、C、D、E、F、G〕中,选出能填入每空的最正确选项,并在答题卡将该项涂黑。

AWorld’s Fascinating Libraries to Mark World Book DayWorld Book Day, also known as World Book and Copyright Day, is an annual event organized by the UNESCO to promote reading, publishing and copyright. The first World Book Day was celebrated on April 23 twenty-eight years ago. Let’s take a look at the world’s fascinating libraries and enjoy the fun of reading.Royal Portuguese Cabinet of ReadingLocated in the center of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the Royal Portuguese Cabinet of Reading is a library and cultural institution. It was built in the late 19th century. Open to the public since 1900, the cabinet has the largest collection of Portuguese literature outside Portugal, holding more than 350,000 books.Stuttgart City LibraryStuttgart City Library is a cube outside with a hollow design inside. The hollow part is connected with misplaced stairs to create a unique sense of space. Since its completion in 2011, it has become a local cultural card and an “instagrammable” place for many tourists.Library of AlexandriaThe Alexandria Library in Alexandria, Egypt, was one of the largest and most significant libraries of the ancient world. The library, destroyed in 415 AD and rebuilt in 2002, is not only a library, but also a museum and scientific research institution. It is known as the Egyptian cultural center and a lighthouse of thought, culture and science.Vasconcelos LibraryVasconcelos Library is located in the downtown area of Mexico City. It was designed by the famous Mexican designer Alberto Kalach, and named after JoséVasconcelos, the philosopher and former president of the National Library of Mexico. It was completed in May 2006 and opened to the public.21. When was the first World Book Day celebrated?A. In 1900.B. In 1995.C. In 2002.D. In 2006.22. What can we infer about Library of Alexandria?A. It is the largest library of the ancient world.B. It has a collection of more than 350,000 books.C. It guides Egyptian’s development and progress.D. It was designed by a famous Mexican architect.23. Which is the youngest library?A. Royal Portuguese Cabinet of ReadingB. Library of AlexandriaC. Stuttgart City LibraryD. Vasconcelos LibraryB“Peg, do you think I can pull the rope(绳)?” The question was asked before we made marks on each of our cows. He had pulled the rope for years. He knew the answer before he asked, but he asked anyway. I answered, “Dad, I know you can't pull it for all the cows, but for a few you will do great. You get out here and we will give it a chance.” Until the last moment on the cows, to be exact, there were three left, I finally saw him driving slowly down the hill.As he approached, we stopped to wait for him. He drove over slowly, parked his car and got out with great difficulty. He made his way to the rope, not an easy task at 93. Tears were running down his face as well as mine. Dad's tears weren't tears of sadness for what he was no longer able to do, but tears of thankfulness that he was able to pull the rope for three cows. His last words when he left, “There, I worked, now I can eat!” That day, those three cows were just what he needed.It was the last time my dad would pull the rope. At the age of 95 my dad changed his address from earth to heaven, a day he had longed for. He was such a diamond(宝石)in my life. My dad passed on his love of birds and all farm animals to me. He used to be a brave World War I pilot. He loved my mother, his family, his country, and his friends. The lessons he taught me are ones that will never be forgotten. I am grateful for the time and beautiful memories.Miss you on the special day—Father's Day, dad.24. How did the father ask the question?A. In surprise.B. Out of patience.C. On purpose.D. In anger.25. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. The farm workers were considerate.B. The author got along well with his co-workers.C. His father was old enough not to work.D. His father had very deep love for work.26. What did the author mainly tell us in the third paragraph?A. His father has a great influence on him.B. His father loved birds and farm animals.C. His father passed away at the age of 95.D. His father had a right attitude to death.27. What was the purpose of the author to write the article?A. To measure.B. To remember.C. To comment.D. To advertise.CNo matter where you go in the world, you will notice something unusual about the trees—their trunks(树干)are painted white, People whitewash trees for a variety of reasons, depending on the area they live in.In Mexico, the purpose of whitewashing is to protect the tree and fight against a specific type of ant.Greece is another country where you can find trees painted white. According to tradition, during Easter(复活节), everything gets whitewashed, Make sure to planyour next trip to Greece if you won't want to miss this interesting and unique tradition.Generally speaking, the main purpose of whitewashing is to protect the tree from heat and insects. And few are as effective and accessible as whitewashing.When the tree is exposed to too much sun in the daytime, the tree cells become more active; however, the roots as well as the other unexposed areas of the tree remain inactive. If the water that the tree needs cannot be provided from the roots, the tree will have a dry surface. Once you whitewash them, the surfaces of young trees won't get dry easily.Pure white paint works efficiently when it comes to reflecting both heat and sunlight away from the tree. White paint allows the tree to spend more time taking in carbon dioxide(CO2). The more carbon dioxide the trees take in, the more energy they create. Gardeners whitewash trees not only for protecting their trees but also increasing fruit production.If the tree is suffering from being sunburned, the wound can also allow the insects to enter the inside of the tree. Moreover, relative diseases can affect how the tree grows. Whitewash prevents any access to the inside of the tree.Painting the trees white won't stop traffic accidents, but it can make them less frequent, because drivers can see the trees much more clearly, even during the night.28. For what reason do the people paint the trees white in Greece?A. To have the trees seen more clearly.B. To protect the trees from extreme heat.C. To celebrate a famous traditional festival.D. To make the surroundings more beautiful.29. What can be inferred from the text?A. Insects and diseases can certainly kill the trees.B. The tree cells become more active in the daytime.C. Painting the trees white may stop traffic accidents.D. Whitewashing the trees may increase fruit production.30. What is the best title for the passage?A. How we should paint the trees whiteB. Why the tree trunks are whitewashedC. When it is the best time to paint the treesD. What we should do before painting the trees31. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A health report.B. A travel handbook.C. A scientific magazine.D. A product advertisement.DAustralian data（数据）indicate that less than a quarter of children aged 5-14 achieve the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity every day and spend just over two hours each day sitting or lying down for screen-based activities. There is widespread concern that children are not spending enough time in nature and, as a result, that they may be missing out on the potential benefits that nature has to offer for social skills, learning, physical health, and wellbeing.For teachers in the know, nature-based play and learning is wonderful. For example, cooking on an outdoor fire can include a range of curriculum（课程）skills-maths and measurement of food materials, important fire and safety skills, reading and writing, and comprehending skills from the recipe, as well as imagination in finding the best sticks to use as skewers. Simple activities can equally deliver benefits: using sticks to show how fractions （分数）are part of a whole can explain problem solving in a hands-on way and help children better grasp（理解）more complex maths concepts.An Australian study found that while all teachers believed that nature-based play and learning can deliver huge benefits for children, seven out of ten teachers felt that their knowledge and confidence was limiting their ability to make full use of these opportunities at school. Difficulties in using nature-based play and learning for teachers include: limited knowledge and confidence in how to add it into learning or how to operate the class outside （78%）; a crowded curriculum limiting their abilityto adopt new learning （54%）; a lack of understanding/support from others in the school （38%）.Reducing these difficulties must be a focus to ensure children are able to judge nature-based play and learning opportunities at school. We must find ways to support teachers to upskill and feel confident in delivering learning opportunities in nature. Training, education, and support at the school level are important for teachers to take the next step, but so are system-level approaches to consider how nature-based learning can be formally included into the curriculum.32. What do experienced teachers think of nature-based play and learning?A. A good academic teaching through lively activities.B. A kind of everyday physical activity for all students.C. A practical student activity to feel the beauty of nature.D. A survival adventure to train students to live independently.33. Why do most teachers have difficulty adopting nature-based play and learning?A. They think students won’t like the learning.B. They are w orried about parents’ disagreement.C. They have not enough time and experience.D. They have got used to the classroom teaching.34. How can nature-based play and learning be widespread?A. By offering leachers a pay rise.B. By adding it to the required curriculum.C. By reducing students’ homework and tests.D. By replacing current teachers with younger ones.35. What is the best title for the text?A. Teachers and nature-based play and learning.B. The recommended everyday physical activity.C. The harm to children from screen-based activities.D. Nature-based play and learning’s benefits for children.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。

Sometimes they try to remember a solution, from the last time they had a 11 problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 12 , they try to find a solution by trial or error. 13 , when all of these methods 14 , the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 15 in analyzing a problem.16 the person must recognize that this is a problem. For example, Sam's bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must 17 that there is a problem with the bicycle.Next, the person must find the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 18 the parts that are wrong.Now the person must look for 19 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 20 solutions. For example, suppose Sam decides that his bicycle doesnot work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 21 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, talk to his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.After 22 the problem, the person should have 23 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 24 , his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes ; buy new brakes and change old ones.In the end, one 25 seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the 26 idea comes quite 27 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a different way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum (口香糖) stuck to a brake. He 28 hits on the solution to his problem: he must 29 the brake.Finally the solution is 30 Sam does it and finds his bicycle work perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.11.

He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall.

Selling educational toys should be easy.While China may be the world's biggest toy-maker, many of the best are exported. Department stores here do not have enough high quality toys. It is said that the demand for educational toys is low.A US company, BabyCare, which works basically together with doctors in Beijing hospitals, is trying to change that with a new way to sell toys in China. People who join the company's "mother club" can get lectures and newsletters on baby and child development at no extra cost if they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company's educational toys and child-care books."We want to build a seven year relationship with those people," said Matthew J. Estes, BabyCare's president. "It starts during pregnancy(怀孕), when the anxiety and needs are highest." BabyCare works on a one-to-one basis. Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by BabyCare advise parents, explaining toys that are designed for children at each stage of development to age six.BabyCare, which plans to have 80 stores in China within six years, opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo.It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children's education and health that no other companies are in.( ) 1. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us?A. Educational toys and foreign toy markets.B. Reasons for pushing sales of educational toys in China.C.

They show different customers’ nutritional needs.D. They remind customers of the harm of unbalanced nutrition.2.

Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A dinner menu.B. A research report.C. A fashion magazine.D. An advice brochure.BOn September 10, 2024, Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, announced his successor(继任者)at the company he founded 19 years ago. Jack Ma will quit his role as chairman on September 10, 2024. Surprisingly, in a country where 70 to 80 percent of private companies are still family run, Mr. Ma did not name a family member. Rather, one of the world’s largest e-commerce companies will be led by Daniel Zhang, an 11-year Alibaba old h and chosen only for his “professional talent.”The history of many countries can be marked by a trend away from dependence on family succession in business, or the belief that qualities of leadership flow through bloodlines. Ma is a true innovator(创新者)in many ways, most famously for building an innovative online shopping market worth more than the economies of most countries. But his legacy(遗产)may lie in showing how China as well as much of Asia can produce founders of successful organizations unwilling to pass the torch to relatives.“Alibaba was never about Jack Ma,” he stated in announcing his succession plan. Instead, the former schoolteacher who came from lowly origins is stepping back from day-to-day operations because he has built a system that takes root in a company culture based on innovation, transparency, and responsibility. “For the last 10 years, we kept working on these ingredients,” he stated.The company’s future will depend on developing a wealth of talent that drives innovation, he said. And in a society with a long tradition of cautious distrust toward those outside the family circle, Ma has built an “architecture of trust” with customers, who number over half a billion. Chinese now readily rely on Alibaba’s online payment system, its ratings of products and services, and other trust-building systems or methods pioneered by the company.China’s rapid growth now produces a new billionaire almost every day. Many of them, like Ma, have favored systems of management based on talent and honesty. As many countries have discovered as they progress, it is better to swim in a talent pool, not a gene pool.4. What do we know about Daniel Zhang from the passage?A. He’s a talented professor.B. He’s an experienced employee.C. He’s a success ful founder.D. He’s Chairman of Alibaba.5. Where does Ma’s legacy lie in?A. Becoming a successful innovative founder.B. Casting doubt on traditional succession plan.C. Providing creative answers to succession problems.D. Representing trends towards non-family-run companies.6. What seems to be the recipe for the company’s future success?A. Trust-building methods.B. The “architecture of trust”.C. A culture of talent development.D. The latest successful innovations.7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Prefer Qualities to Blood.B. Train a Potential Successor.C. Favor Genes over Talents.D. Provide New Management.CIt was many years ago. I was a young dad sitting on the couch reading a fairy tale to my little girl. She sat next to me with her head on my arm as I told the tale. When it came to the end I finished with those famous words: “And they lived happily ever after.” As I looked over to her with her brown hair and big, innocent eyes, I could see the smile on her face and I never wanted it to end. Then I realized that the ending of the book was what I wanted for her. I wanted her to “live happily ever after”.Still deep in my heart I knew that this couldn't always be so. I knew that there would be times when her heart was broken. I knew there would be times when she cried in sorrow and I couldn't comfort her. I knew there would be times when all she felt was fear, sadness, sorrow, and despair. As I touched her hair and smiled at her I hoped that those times would be brief and that she would have joy in her life more often than not. Living happily ever after, though, seemed out of the question.It takes me a lot of years to realize that it is possible to live happily ever after. You just have to do it “one day at a time”. Happiness you see isn't some reward that you get at the end of your journey. Happiness isn't something that depends on what life you own. Happiness is something you create in your life choice by choice and day by day.The truth is happiness comes when you love. Love is a gift from God. It is love that mends broken hearts. It is love that heals grief. It is love that gives us joy. Choose to “live happily ever after, one day at a time”.8 What is the author's wish to his daughter?A. Getting a good job in the future.B. Making many friends in her school.C. Traveling around the world in her life.D. Having a happy life ever after.9. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. Life's meaning consists in devotion.B. Living happily ever after seemed out of question to the author.C. There are times that life goes against us.D. Everyone has the right to obtain happiness and freedom.10. How to get happiness in author's opinion?A. Reward yourself once a day.B. Create it by yourself in your daily life.C Get rid of those disturbing things. D. Take charge of your life independently.11. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To show the significance of love.B. To describe a daughter's growth.C. To introduce the definition of love.D. To tell a young father's experience.DBoth honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist at Stanford University, says,“ Ants aren't smart. Ant colonies are.”The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their social behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communicationsystems, and both have the capacity for learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of the colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send messages to each other by means of a “dance”. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new home for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance, the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent American research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants.They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate(协调) complex actions and accomplish survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.12. What do ants and bees have in common?A. They live in similar-sized colonies.B. They make use of collective intelligence.C. They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.D. They use the same methods to communicate with each other.13. What does the speed of a bee's dance indicate?A. The quality of a new colony location.B. The distance to a neighboring colony.C. The discovery of a new food source.D. The direction to a potential food source.14. In paragraph 4, how does the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning?A. By using statistics.B. By explaining reasons.C. By referencing opinions.D. By presenting study findings.15. What is the benefit of collective intelligence?A. It allows the colony to reproduce more rapidly.B. It improves work cooperation within the colony.C. It reduces the division of labor among members.D. It enables individuals to teach each other new skills.其次节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。

Luckily, new research has found deep water reserves under the state which could help solve their drought crisis. Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted(抽取). The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers(地下蓄⽔层) below this depth and found that reserves may be three times what was previously thought.The aquifers range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet below the ground, which means that pumping will be expensive and there are other concerns. The biggest concern of pumping out water from this deep is the gradual settling down of the land surface. As the water is pumped out, the vacant space left is compacted(压实) by the weight of the earth above.Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating (脱盐) the ocean water in this coastal state. Some desalination factories exist where possible, but they are costly to run and can need constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage.One problem with these sources is that the deep water also has a higher level of salt than shallower aquifers. This means that some wells may even need to undergo desalination after extraction, thus increasing the cost. The result of a thorough study of groundwater from over 950 drilling logs has just been published. New estimates of the water reserves in the state now go up to 2,700 billion cubic meters of freshwater.21. How could California’s drought prob lem be solved according to some researchers?A. By building more reserves of groundwater.B. By drawing water from the depths of the earth.C. By developing more advanced drilling machines.D. By improving its water distribution system.22. What is mentioned as a consequence of pumping water from deep underground?A. The sinking of land surface.B. The harm to the ecosystem.C.The damage to aquifers.D. The change of the climate. 23. What does the author say about deep wells? A. They run without any need for repairs. B. They are the final solution to droughts. C. They are entirely free from pollution. D. They provide a steady supply of freshwater. . B⾼⼆下开学初周测-第1页(共10页) 1英语试题-第2页(共10页)In one of the old buildings near our school, one could see an old man sitting by a large window on the first floor. His name was James. During the three years at school, I had hardly ever found him missing from his usual position.He was a high－ranking government official and lived happily with his wife. Once there was a bus accident, in which a number of passengers were seriously injured and were taken to the hospital for treatment. James was responsible for the rescue operation. It was a big hospital, but James was shocked to notice how ill－equipped it was. There were no enough life－saving drugs and life－supporting equipment. The injured and their companions had to struggle there. James attempted to help. However, though he emptied his pockets, many of them died that day.That was a turning point in his life. He made a decision to devote his life to helpingothers，particularly the poor and needy patients and their companions. He began spending much of his income on these people. Since this required a lot of time and energy, he found it difficult to fulfill his official duties and therefore chose to retire, which, in turn, reduced his income considerably.His wife was deeply worried. Most of the time, James was out and paid least attention to home affairs. Meanwhile, as he was spending a lot helping others, she had to struggle even to meet the household expenses. Though she was not opposed to his helping the poor, she urged him not to overlook his own life and home, but it had no effect on him. One day they had a heated argument and in the end she left him, never to return. Though he continued with his work, this was a great blow and did serious harm to his health and enthusiasm and he was soon forced to stay indoors. That was when he took his position by the window, spending his time looking outside.A few weeks after my graduation, I returned to school, only to find the buildings gone. I heard that they were torn down. All the people left except James. He refused to go and the next morning, he was found at his usual place by the window, dead. 24．James chose to retire in order to ．A．take care of the injured passengers. B．find a better job to increase his income.C．spare more time and energy to help others. D．stay away from the difficult official duties. 25．James’ wife left because．A．she was strongly against his deeds. B．James paid too little attention to his work.C．her work to support their daily life was too tiring..D．James failed to keep a balance between charity and home.26.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to ．A．His decision to retire B．The departure of his wifeC．The argument with his wife D．His devotion to helping others27. What is possibly the reason why James sat by the window every day?A. He expected his wife to return.B. He looked forward to going out.C. He desired to watch the students.D. He attempted to know the outside lifeCA growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four day workweek. Now the results of a recent trial at Microsoft suggest it could work even for the biggest businesses.The company introduced a program this summer in Japan called the "Work Life Choice Challenge", which shut down its offices every Friday in August and gave all employees an extra day off each week. The results were promising: while the amount of time spent at work was cut dramatically, productivity—measured by sales per employee went up by almost 40% compared to the same period of the previous year, the company said in a statement last week.In addition to reducing working hours, managers urged staff to cut down on the time they spent in meetings and responding to emails. They suggested that meetings should last no longer than 30 minutes. Employees were also encouraged to cut down on meetings altogether by using an online messaging app.The effects were widespread. More than 90% of Microsoft's 2,280 employees in Japan later said they were impacted by the new measures, according to the company. By shutting down earlier each week, the company was also able to save on other resources, such as electricity.Japan has long battled with a cruel--and in some cases, deadly--culture of overwork. The problem is so severe that the country has even coined a term for it: karoshi death by overwork from stress-induced illnesses or severe depression.The issue attracted international attention in 2015, when an employee at Japanese advertising giant Dentsu committed suicide on Christmas Day. Tokyo officials later said that the staff had worked excessive amounts of overtime. Two years later, a reporter at a Japanese broadcaster died after working punishing long hours. Her employer said she had clocked in 159 hours of overtime the month before her death.That has led businesses to start searching for solutions. Sonic companies have begun offering employees more flexibility, and the government has launched a campaign called "Premium Friday", which encourages workers to leave early every last Friday of the month.28. Microsoft introduced the "Work Life Choice Challenge" program this summer by .A. holding a long-distance meeting every Friday.B. giving three days off to its employees every week.C. shutting down its office areas every weekend.D. organizing a corporate tour every week.29. What is the result of adopting a four-day workweek?A. It is a waste of energy.B. The workers earned less money.C. The working efficiency increases greatly.D. Japan’s unemployment rate is rising.30. How can the time the staff spent on meetings be reduced?A. By canceling meeting.B. By using emails to respond.C. By cutting down working hours.D. By using a certain online messaging app.31. What is the staff’s attitude to the new measures?A. supportive.B. negativeC. criticalD. indifferentDAnger is an emotion that can be hard to control. Despite this, we should learn how to manage anger in a constructive manner. In the most intense moments of anger, we usually have two choices — to fight or to run. Some choose the option of violence, which is a negative reaction to anger; and others choose to run. But the option of walking away and calming down is the more productive method of handling anger. It is difficult to walk away, especially when your heart is racing, and your anger is boiling over.There are some other constructive ways of handling anger in any situation. First, you have to stop for a brief moment and think before you act. Take that moment and calm down if you feel yourself being pushed.At that moment you should admit you are angry. If you refuse to admit you are angry or hurt, or if you make it appear that everything is all right, you are not managing angry in a productive way. You should first admit you are angry and let your feelings out before you blow up. For example, you can stay in a quiet place by yourself and shout; or you can talk to close friends to pour out your rage (愤怒). If you do not⾼⼆下开学初周测-第3页(共10页) 英语试题-第4页(共10页)2acknowledge your anger, it only builds up inside you and will eventually explode like a volcano.Then, in order to manage your angry, you can ask yourself an important question that we all must ask ourselves ― What made me angry? When you get the answer, and then ask yourself ― Why did that made me angry? Through such logical reasoning, one tends to calm down and move towards a sensible solution.32. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 is to ________.A. provide an exampleB. make a comparisonC. introduce a new statementD. develop a previous statement33. If people face anger, ________.A. they know how to manage itB. it is often quite hard to get awayC. they can only choose to fight or to runD. they believe running means being a coward34. It can be inferred from Para. 3 and 4 that ________.A. one can handle anger by oneself or in groupsB. the first step of handling anger is to calm downC. a person may handle anger by asking random questionsD. acknowledging anger will do harm to a person’s health35. The main purpose of the passage is _______.A. to tell readers what anger isB. to explain why anger is hard to controlC. to show the importance of handling angerD. to offer tips on handling anger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。

Please read the following passage.Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can s ave you life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to eve ryone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possibl e, learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious in jury.The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An averag e(平均高度的) person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low a t the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked(渗) into the room.On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Droppi ng onto cement(水泥) might end in injury. Bushes(灌木丛) and grass can help to break a fall.1. It is important to _______.A. put out the fire in the burning houseB. know the ways to escape the fireC. jump off a burning houseD. keep the door closed2. It is possible to escape through the windows _______.A. if there are some bushes on the groundB. if you are strong enoughC. if you live on a lower floorD. If you have a long rope3. Which of the following escaping way is NOT right? _______.A. You can escape though stairways.B. You can choose fire escapes.C. Escape from the windows that open onto a roof.D. Use a lift to come down at once.4. Open the window so that _______ if the building is on fire.A. you can get fresh airB. you can call for helpC. you can easily jump offD. you can be seen first5. The best title of the passage is _______.A. Escaping from the WindowsB. Save Yourself in the Burning HouseC. Knowledge on FireD. Waiting for HelpB“Well, we’re in our new house. Let’s get a new pet to get along with it,〞 Mrs Brown said to her husband.“That sounds like a pretty good idea,〞he answered. “Do you want to see the ads in the newspaper?〞“Let’s go to the animal shelter. Many pets there need homes. Since tomorr ow is Saturday, we can both go,〞 she said.Next morning the Browns met Mr Snow at the animal shelter. “We want to be sure that the pets here go to good homes,〞Mr Snow said, “So I need to ask yo u some questions.〞After they talked for a while, the Browns decided to get a small dog. It wo uldn’t need a big house or a big yard. A small dog would bark(吠) and warm the m if someone tried to break into their house. After Mr Snow gave the Browns a b ook on pet care, they chose one and wanted to take her home right away. But the animal doctor hadn’t checked her yet. So Mr Snow told them to return on Sunda y.On Sunday afternoon the Browns went to the animal shelter. The animal docto r said, “Shadow has had all of her shots(预防针).

However, by the time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full, so it is of no use for me. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has _______ seats on it.The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the Airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was first to get off the bus when it reached the Airport, I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum spe ed:50 m. p. h.〞 The distance from So UK Road to the Airport is 10 miles. Saturday morninga 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 m. p. h. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 m. p. h.It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers.
