I used to be weak in study, but I’ve improved my study in a rapid way. I think the most important I have done is to manage my time. I always make a plan about how to spend my spare time. It is hard to keep the plan, but I stick to following it. After class, I go over my notes in time. As a result, my study becomes better and better.
As we all know, friends are the treasure in our life. It’s necessary to share you feelings with your friends. Try to communicate with you friends whether you’re sad or happy.
I often take part in the activities that keep our environment clean. Sometimes we go to the park to clean it up, tired but happy.
I hope my experience is of great value to you. And I do believe you can become better and have a promising future.东台市第二教育联盟2022~2023学年度第二学期期中考试

Mark Hoffman and his wife own a bed-and-breakfast guesthouse in rural Kempton, Illinois. They often serve their guests fresh products from the garden.
The Hoffmans have been growing food and flowers for twenty-five years. For almost ten of those years, Mr. Hoffman has been experimenting(做实验) and working with shade plantings. He says, “The bottom line here is that most plants will produce more in full sun. But if you do not have full sun, there are other choices.”
For example, he grows tomatoes near oak trees. Oak trees(橡树) can produce a lot of shade. But Mr. Hoffman says his tomato plants grow as long as they get five hours’ direct sunshine a day, especially morning sun. Not only does this go against the traditional advice that tomatoes need six, eight, even twelve hours’ full sun a day, it also shows how plants and tree roots(树根) can share nutrients(养分) and water. Mr. Hoffman also planted asparagus(芦笋) around a tree. When it rains, all the rain from the leaves of the tree drops down right on the asparagus.
Mr. Hoffman says plants with wider leaves seem to do better in shady environments. He also found that his potatoes did better partly in shade than in full sun.
Moving them out of the sun helped control an insect problem with leaf hoppers. Mr. Hoffman does not use pesticide(杀虫剂). Instead, he planted the potatoes in the shade, especially on the east side of the tree. The potatoes get morning sun, but they are shaded during the hottest part of the day. Leaf hoppers dislike shade, and the hottest part day is when they do the worst of their damage(破坏).
Time of day, brightness of the sun, shadows from trees, walls and buildings all influence how much sunlight falls or does not fall on plants. People who are interested in shade planting should also consider different conditions which planting vegetables in the shade.
51. What can we infer from the second paragraph
A.Food and flowers produce more in the shade.
B.Food and flowers can’t grow without full sun.
C.Planting food in the shade is the best choice.
D.Sun can influence the production of some plant.
52. By using asparagus as an example, the writer wants to explain that ________.
A. how plants and trees share water B. vegetables grow better in the shade
C. how leaves get sunshine under the tree D. asparagus prefers to grow in the shade
53.The underlined words “leaf hoppers” in Paragraph 5 may be a kind of ________.
A. plants B. insects C. pesticides D. potatoes
54. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the passage
A.To introduce Mark Hoffman and his family.
B.To recommend a method of managing a website.
C.To show vegetables can be planted in the shade.
D.To show vegetable must be planted in the shade.
55. We may read the passage on a website in the section of ______.
Environment B.Travelling C. Agriculture D. Lifestyle
C
Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa. It is also the second largest lake in the world. It is an important lake because it is one of the sources for the longest river in the world, the Nile River. Lake Victoria provides a source of water, food, and power for several African countries. Lake Victoria is a big part of African life.
Unfortunately, Lake Victoria has a problem. It is shrinking.There are several power stations at Lake Victoria in Uganda.These are on the Nile River, and besides producing power, they keep the water of the lake at a certain level.For the past forty years, that level has been 11.9 meters.Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters.There seem to be several reasons for this drop.
One possible reason is drought(干旱).Drought has been very bad in the area since 2000.Lake Victoria gets all of its water from rain, so the drought means less water in the lake.
However, some environmentalists believe that the real problem is the power plants(factories) on Lake Victoria.Uganda depends on those power plants for most of its power, and they made the power plants larger in 2000.Many people believe the power plants have been taking too much water off Lake Victoria.As a result, they have been asked to use less water until Lake Victoria goes back to its old level.
Whether the low water level is caused by drought or power plants, the result is the same. This is already a poor area of Africa, where many people live a really hard life.People, animals and plants around Lake Victoria will suffer even more from low water levels on the lake.Many people need Lake Victoria for fishing or growing food.Fish need the water to live, and animals need it for water.
56.Lake Victoria is __________.
A. an important lake in Africa. B.the largest lake in the world.
C.the source of water, food and power for America. D.the only source for the Nile River.
57. What does the underlined sentence “It is shrinking” most probably mean
A. It is becoming larger. B. It is becoming more beautiful.
C. It is becoming smaller. D. It is becoming more useful.
58. The water level of Lake Victoria is now __________.
A.2.5 meters B.11.9 meters C.14.4 meters D.9.4 meters
59. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
A. Rain water is the only source for the lake.
B. There has been little rain in the lake area since 2000.
C. The power plants in Uganda provide water for the lake.
D. The power plants in Uganda were made larger in 2000.
60. According to the passage, how can we solve the problems around Lake Victoria
A. People must build more power plants.
B. More sources of water must be found.
C. Every country should offer some money to Africa.
D. All the people living in the area should move to another place.
(二）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,选项中有一项为多余选项。
Habits in Russia
There is an old saying that says when in Rome，do as the Romans do. I learned the meaning of this when I stayed in Russia as a visiting scholar（学者）.
One day I invited some of my Chinese friends to a famous local restaurant in Moscow. My guests and I were excited about our meeting. We had a lively talk until the waiter told me that we were too loud. We lowered our voices.（61） The waiter came over to us two more times with the same message.
How bad an impression（印象） we must have left on the local people! In China，it's natural for a host（主人） to make a lively atmosphere（氛围）.However，in Russia and Western countries，having a meal in a public place means you must keep your voice low.（62）
I felt bad about this.（63）
（64） My Russian friend Andrew always looks around and thinks for a while before leaving home. I asked him why he did this. Andrew said， "In Russia，people always spend about a minute going over things and plans in their minds before leaving home. So they won't leave anything necessary behind."
（65） I like to keep my eyes and mind open.
A. But this didn't last long. B. Russians have their own special habits，too. C. Finding the differences between cultures is so much fun. D. You need to be polite to others. E. Luckily，people in Russia usually don't mind that. F. Even though we tried our best，it's very difficult to fight against habits.
