One day he became very ill, and everyone thought he would die. They sent for a doctor, who arrived two days later and examined the sick man. The doctor asked for a pen and some paper to write down the name of the medicine. But there was no pen or paper in the village, because no one could read or write.The doctor picked up a piece of burnt wood from the fire. Using the wood, he wrote the name of the medicine on the door of the house. "Get this medicine for him," he said ,"and he will soon get better."Marek's family and friends did not know what to do. They could not read the strange writing. Then the village baker had an idea. He took off the door of the house, put it on his cart and drove to the nearest town.

A forest covered the earth like a green carpet. What was the forest like? It is not difficult to find out because parts of that ancient forest still stand. It is known as the rain forest. There even in fine weather, water falls in drops through the leaves.The largest of today’s rain forests is in South America. It covers about a million square miles. All the trees are very tall. The young trees are up to 60 feet high, but it is not easy for some to grow taller, because very little sunlight gets to them.The grown-up trees are about 60 to 100 feet high. Some are even taller. The tallest trees can be 200 or more feet high. In the forest of tall trees, not only plant life is rich but also animal life. At different heights live different animals.

When talking to a Westerner, however, you've got to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. Chinese people view the pig as a smart and prosperous animal. Western ideas tend to be a little more negative. A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn't be smiling. When a person doesn't like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don't say, “Oh, you're a pig!” Most Westerners will understand. They will be sure that you made some kind of mistake. However, don't take any chances. You might just offend(触怒)someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.66. You have to be careful when you talk to a Westerner about pigs because______.A. they worship pigs best of allB. they consider pigs as bad animalsC. they aren't used to talking about pigs.D. they don't like the topic about pigs at all67. According to the passage we can see that Chinese people think of the pig as a _____animal.A. cleverB. richC. goodD. all the above68.

Westerners do not like pigs as much as the ChineseC. in general, Westerners and the Chinese don't like pigsD. all of the Chinese like pigs better than WesternersDFootball is, I believe, the most popular game in England: one has only to go to the important matches to see this. Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side or the other.To a stranger, one of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams, and he has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches. He will tell you who he expects will win such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age.Most schools in England take football seriously--much more seriously than nearly all European schools, where lessons are all very important and games are left for the children themselves. In England it is thought that education is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in the classroom, education also means the training of character; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially team games, where a boy or girl has to learn to work with others for his or her team, instead of working for oneself alone. The school therefore plans games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game. It is good both for the body and the mind. That’s why it is every school’s game in England.71.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 means “________”.A.people often go to see football gamesB.people, rich and poor, young and old, play footballC.football is the most popular game in EnglandD.people usually shout at each other in a football match72.In England school boys seem_________ football games.A. to know little aboutB. to know a great deal aboutC. to know nothing aboutD. to know a little about73.

In almost all European schools, lessons are___________.A. left for the children themselvesB. what the children like bestC. as important as football gamesD. considered the most important75. In England, education means_________.A. filling a boy’s mind with storiesB. more than the teaching of knowledgeC. the teaching of knowledge onlyD. training character by means of football games高二英语第7页(共10页)高二英语第7页(共10页)第二学期期中考试试卷高二英语题号 Ⅴ ⅥⅦ 总分 得分第II 卷(非选择题共35分)Ⅴ 单词拼写(共10分,每小题1分,满分10分)76.
