2020-2021学年高二英语上学期期中测试卷02
第I卷(选择题)
第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)
(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
We
often
seek
food
after
focused
mental
activity,
like
preparing
for
an
exam.
Researchers
guess
that
too
much
thinking
consumes
a
lot
of
energy
from
the
brain.
So
the
brain,
sensing
that
it
may
soon
require
more
calories
to
keep
going,
apparently
leads
to
bodily
hunger,
and
even
though
there
has
been
little
physical
movement,
we
eat.
The
researchers
note
that
tiring
activity
both
increases
the
amount
of
blood
sugar
and
lactate(乳酸盐)circulating
in
the
blood
and
increases
blood
flow
to
the
head.
Because
the
brain
uses
sugar
and
lactate
as
fuel,
researchers
wondered
if
the
increased
flow
of
fuel?rich
blood
during
exercise
could
feed
a
worn?out
brain
and
reduce
the
urge
to
overeat.
Thirty?eight
healthy
college
students
were
invited
to
determine
their
fitness
and
metabolic(新陈代谢)rates
and
to
report
what
their
favorite
pizza
was.
Afterward,
they
sat
quietly
for
35
minutes
before
being
given
as
much
of
their
favorite
pizza
as
they
wanted.
At
a
later
date,
the
volunteers
returned
and
spent
20
minutes
making
selections
from
college
and
graduate?school
entrance
exams.
Next,
half
the
students
sat
quietly
for
15
minutes,
before
being
given
pizza.
The
rest
of
the
volunteers
spent
those
15
minutes
doing
intervals
on
a
treadmill(跑步机)two
minutes
of
hard
running
followed
by
about
one
minute
of
walking,
repeated
five
times.
These
students
were
then
allowed
to
gorge
on
pizza,
too.
But
by
and
large,
they
did
not
overeat.
When
the
researchers
factored
in(将……作为因素考虑)the
calories
burnt
on
running,
they
determined
that
those
students
actually
consumed
200
fewer
total
calories
after
their
brain
workouts
than
the
resting
students.
The
researchers
do
not
know
if
the
runners
consumed
extra
calories
at
dinner.
They
also
cannot
tell
whether
other
types
of
exercise
would
have
the
same
effect
as
running,
although
the
researchers
say
they
suspect
that
if
an
activity
causes
someone
to
break
into
a
sweat,
it
should
also
increase
blood
sugar
and
lactate,
feeding
the
brain
and
weakening
hungers
call.

from
the
first
paragraph?
A.We
eat
for
more
physical
movements.

results
in
caloric
consumption
most.
2.What
can
a
physical

one
to
eat
more.

B
Learning,
Fast
and
Deep
Over
the
past
five
years
researchers
in
artificial
intelligence
have
become
the
rock
stars
of
the
technology
world.
A
branch
of
AI
known
as
deep
learning,
which
uses
neural(神经的)
networks
to
scan
through
large
volumes
of
data
looking
for
patterns,
has
proven
so
useful
that
skilled
practitioners
can
command
high
six-figure
salaries
to
build
software
for
Amazon,
Apple,
Facebook
and
Google.
The
standard
route
into
these
jobs
has
been
a
PhD
in
computer
science
from
one
of
America’s
top
universities.
Earning
one
takes
years
and
requires
a
personality
suited
to
academia,
which
is
rare
among
more
normal
folk.
That
is
changing.
Last
month
fast.ai,
a
non-profit
education
organization
based
in
San
Francisco,
kicked
off
the
third
year
of
its
course
in
deep
learning.
Since
its
foundation
it
has
attracted
more
than
100,000
students
around
the
globe
from
India
to
Nigeria.
The
course
and
others
like
it,
come
with
a
simple
idea:
there
is
no
need
to
spend
years
obtaining
a
PhD
in
order
to
practise
deep
learning.
Creating
software
that
learns
can
be
taught
as
a
craft,
not
as
a
high
intellectual
pursuit
to
be
undertaken
only
in
an
ivory
tower.
Fast.ai’s
course
can
be
completed
in
just
seven
weeks.
To
make
it
accessible
to
anyone
who
wants
to
learn
how
to
build
AI
software
is
the
aim
of
Jeremy
Howard,
who
founded
fast.ai
with
Rachel
Thomas,
a
mathematician.
He
says
school
mathematics
is
sufficient.
“No.
Greek.
Letters,”
Mr.
Howard
intones,
pounding
the
table
with
his
fist
for
punctuation.
Some
experts
worry
that
this
will
serve
only
to
create
a
flood
of
unreliable
AI
systems
which
will
be
useless
at
best
and
dangerous
at
worst.
In
the
earliest
days
of
the
Internet,
only
a
select
few
nerds,
namely
computerholics
with
specific
skills,
could
build
applications.
Not
many
people
used
them.
Then
the
invention
of
the
World
Wide
Web
led
to
an
explosion
of
web
pages,
both
good
and
bad.
But
it
was
only
by
opening
up
to
all
that
the
Internet
gave
birth
to
online
shopping,
instant
global
communications
and
search.
If
Mr.
Howard
and
others
have
their
way,
making
the
development
of
AI
software
easier
will
bring
forth
a
new
crop
of
fruit
of
a
different?kind.
4.What
can
we
learn
about
deep
learning?
A.It
replaces
artificial
intelligence.
B.It
attracts
rock
stars
to
practice.
C.It
scans
patterns
for
large
companies.
D.It
helps
technicians
to
create
software.
5.Fast.ai
is
an
organization
that
_______.
A.ensures
one
to
obtain
a
PhD
B.teaches
craft
in
ivory
tower
C.offers
a
course
in
deep
learning
D.requires
weeks
to
apply
6.The
underlined
words
“No.
Greek.
Letters”in
Paragraph
5
means
doing
fast.ai
course
is
_______.
A.easy
B.difficult
C.interesting
D.boring
7.It
can
be
inferred
from
the
last
paragraph
that
_______.
A.it
is
quite
reliable
for
anyone
to
grasp
artificial
intelligence
B.the
Internet
has
brought
forth
a
flood
of
useless
AI
systems
C.opening
up
to
all
leads
to
instant
global
search
and
online
shopping
D.simplifying
software
development
may
result
in
unexpected
outcomes
C
If
your
life
were
a
book
and
you
were
the
author,
how
would
you
want
your
story
to
go?
That’s
the
question
that
changed
my
life
forever.
At
the
age
of
19,
I
became
a
massage
therapist(治疗师).
For
the
first
time
in
my
life,
I
felt
free,
independent
and
completely
in
control
of
my
life.
That
is,
until
my
life
took
a
detour.
I
was
diagnosed
with
bacterial
meningitis.
Over
the
course
of
two
months,
I
lost
my
spleen(脾)
,
my
kidneys
,
and
both
of
my
legs
below
the
knees.
One
day,
I
went
home.
I
crawled
into
bed
and
this
is
what
my
life
looked
like
for
the
next
few
months:
me
passed
out,
escaping
from
reality,
with
my
legs
resting
by
my
side.
I
was
completely
physically
and
emotionally
broken.
But
I
knew
that
in
order
to
move
forward,
I
had
to
let
go
of
the
old
Amy
and
learn
to
embrace
the
new
Amy.
And
that
is
when
I
began
to
realize
that
I
didn’t
have
to
be
small
any
more.
I
could
be
as
tall
as
I
wanted
or
as
short
as
I
wanted
depending
on
whom
I
was
dating.
And
if
I
snowboard
again,
my
feet
aren’t
going
to
get
cold.
And
the
best
of
all,
I
thought,
I
can
make
my
feet
the
size
of
all
the
shoes
that
are
on
the
sales
shelf.
And
I
did!
I
started
snowboarding.
Then
I
went
back
to
work.
And
then
I
co-founded
a
non-profit
organization
for
physical
disabilities
so
that
they
could
get
involved
in
action
sports.
And
just
this
past
February,
I
won
two
World
Cup
gold
medals,
making
me
the
highest-ranked
adaptive
female
snowboarder
in
the
world.
Eleven
years
ago,
when
I
lost
my
legs,
I
had
no
idea
what
to
expect.
But
if
you
ask
me
today,
if
I
would
ever
want
to
change
my
situation,
I
would
have
to
say
no,
because
my
legs
haven’t
disabled
me.
They’ve
forced
me
to
rely
on
my
imagination
and
to
believe
in
possibilities,
and
that’s
why
I
believe
that
our
imaginations
can
be
used
as
tools
for
breaking
through
borders,
because
in
our
minds,
we
can
do
anything
and
we
can
be
anything.
It’s
belief
in
those
dreams
and
facing
our
fears
directly
that
allow
us
to
live
our
lives
beyond
our
limits.
8.What
can
we
learn
from
the
underlined
sentence
in
Paragraph3?
A.The
author
no
longer
wanted
to
make
friends
with
Amy.
B.The
author
realized
she
had
to
learn
to
accept
a
new
“herself”
gladly.
C.The
author
wanted
a
new
friend
in
her
new
life
eagerly.
D.The
author
felt
hard
to
choose
between
the
old
Amy
and
the
new
Amy.
9.According
to
the
passage,
which
of
the
following
statements
is
true?
A.The
author
didn’t
like
her
job
as
a
massage
therapist.
B.The
author
is
still
very
sensitive
to
her
disabilities.
C.The
author
has
learnt
to
see
her
disabilities
as
blessings.
D.The
author
hopes
to
return
to
her
old
life.
10.What
message
does
the
author
want
to
convey
with
her
speech?
A.Roman
is
not
built
in
one
day.
B.Failure
is
the
mother
of
success
C.Imagination
is
more
important
than
knowledge.
D.It
is
not
what
happens
to
you
but
how
you
respond
that
counts.
11.The
tone
of
the
passage
is
best
described
as
________.
A.proud
but
stubborn
B.interesting
but
regretful
C.optimistic
and
inspiring
D.pessimistic
and
doubtful
D
Ever
walked
to
the
shops
only
to
find,
once
there,
you’ve
completely
forgotten
what
you
went
for?
Or
struggled
to
remember
the
name
of
an
old
friend?
For
years
we’ve
accepted
that
a
forgetful
brain
is
as
much
a
part
of
aging
as
wrinkles
and
gray
hair.
But
now
a
new
book
suggests
that
we’ve
got
it
all
wrong.
According
to
The
Secret
Life
of
the
Grown-up
Brain,
by
science
writer
Barbara
Strauch,
when
it
comes
to
the
important
things,
our
brains
actually
get
better
with
age.
In
fact,
she
argues
that
some
studies
have
found
that
our
brain
hits
its
peak
between
our
40s
and
60s

much
later
than
previously
thought.
Furthermore,
rather
than
losing
many
brain
cells
as
we
age,
we
keep
them,
and
even
produce
new
ones
well
into
middle
age.
For
years
it’s
been
assumed
that
brain,
much
like
the
body,
declines
with
age.
But
the
longest,
largest
study
into
what
happens
to
people
as
they
age
suggests
otherwise.
This
continuing
research
has
followed
6,000
people
since
1956,
testing
them
every
seven
years.
It
has
found
that
on
average,
participants
performed
better
on
cognitive
(认知的)
tests
in
their
40s
and
50s
than
they
had
done
in
their
20s.
Specifically,
older
people
did
better
on
tests
of
vocabulary,
verbal
memory
(how
many
words
you
can
remember)
and
problem
solving.
Where
they
performed
less
well
was
number
ability
and
perceptual
speed

how
fast
you
can
push
a
button
when
ordered.
However,
with
more
complex
tasks
such
as
problem-solving
and
language,
we
are
at
our
best
at
middle
age
and
beyond.
In
short,
researchers
are
now
coming
up
with
scientific
proof
that
we
do
get
wiser
with
age.
Neuroscientists
are
also
finding
that
we
are
happier
with
aging.
A
recent
US
study
found
older
people
were
much
better
at
controlling
and
balancing
their
emotions.
It
is
thought
that
when
we’re
younger
we
need
to
focus
more
on
the
negative
aspects
of
life
in
order
to
learn
about
the
possible
dangers
in
the
world,
but
as
we
get
older
we’ve
learned
our
lessons
and
are
aware
that
we
have
less
time
left
in
life:
therefore,
it
becomes
more
important
for
us
to
be
happy.
12.Barbara
Strauch
probably
agrees
that
______.
A.the
young
are
better
at
handling
important
things
B.wrinkles
and
gray
hair
are
the
only
symbols
of
aging
C.aging
leads
to
the
decline
of
the
function
of
the
brain
D.people’s
brains
work
best
between
their
40s
and
60s
13.The
continuing
research
has
found
older
people
perform
better
on
______.
A.vocabulary
tests
B.number
ability
C.perceptual
speed
D.body
balance
14.People
are
happier
with
aging
because
______.
A.they
know
how
to
share
feelings
B.they
learn
to
value
the
time
left
C.they
cannot
focus
on
negative
aspects
D.they
do
not
realize
the
possible
dangers
15.What
is
the
main
idea
of
the
passage?
A.People
get
happier
with
age.
B.People
get
more
forgetful
with
age.
C.People
get
wiser
with
age.
D.People
get
more
self-aware
with
age.
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;选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many
people
would
like
to
return
to
school
to
increase
earning
potential,
realize
dreams,
or
finish
something
they
started
long
ago.
However,
some
have
families
and
jobs,
and
getting
to
day
courses—or
even
night
school—can
be
an
impossible
thing.16.
Thanks
to
the
Internet
and
other
forms
of
quick
communication,
e?learning
for
students
has
become
the
busy
person’s
preferred
method
for
achieving
educational
goals.17.
Below
are
some
examples.
If
you
already
have
a
year
or
two
of
your
degree
behind
you,
e?learning
can
help
you
complete
your
requirements.
Education?minded
employers
often
give
employees
incentives(激励)
to
complete
their
degrees
online.
If
you
are
a
stay?at?home
mom
or
dad
and
looking
to
return
to
the
school
then
you
are
a
best
candidate
for
e?learning.18.
As
long
as
you
can
meet
deadlines
and
perform
high?quality
work,
you
can
achieve
the
highest
educational
goals.
19.
In
this
case,
e?learning
for
students
who
are
already
in
an
advanced
degree
or
specialized
study
satisfies
the
requirement.
You
can
earn
the
master’s
or
doctoral
degree,
as
well
as
high?level
certifications
in
your
online
program.
If
you
live
in
a
place
that
does
not
offer
the
kind
of
education
you
want,
you
may
want
to
look
at
e?learning
in
an
overseas
college
or
university.
For
instance,
England
has
some
of
the
world’s
most
well?known
institutes,
but
many
cannot
go
there
for
an
entire
education.20.
A.What
a
pity
that
they
are
kept
away!
B.Now
they
have
a
new
choice—e?learning.
C.But
its
high?quality
education
can
be
enjoyed
worldwide
now.
D.The
Internet
provides
you
a
new
form
of
learning
to
realize
dreams.
E.
In
reality,
almost
anyone
can
benefit
from
the
flexibility
of
e?learning.
F.
Many
e?courses
allow
you
to
use
the
learning
system
whenever
you
can.
G.
Many
people
have
motivations
for
further
education
past
the
undergraduate
degree.

阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Ten
years
ago
I
was
visiting
Costa
Rica
when
I
found
I
was
in
a
bad
situation.
I
only
knew
basic
Spanish,and
the
only
21
I
had
was
some
coins
and
a
return
ticket
to
Guatemala
in
two
weeks.
With
the
coins,I
managed
to
arrive
at
Santa
Rosa
by
bus.
It
was
22
in
the
middle
of
the
night,but
I
could
see
some
23
in
the
distance,so
I
24
toward
them.
I
went
25
door
to
door,explaining
my
situation.
“I
can
26
and
clean
and
look
after
your
kids,I
can
do
anything,can
you
give
me
a
27
?”Everybody
replied
saying
“Oh
my
gosh,but
we
are
so
28
.We
have
no
extra
food.
Maybe

第I卷(选择题)
第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)
(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
We
often
seek
food
after
focused
mental
activity,
like
preparing
for
an
exam.
Researchers
guess
that
too
much
thinking
consumes
a
lot
of
energy
from
the
brain.
So
the
brain,
sensing
that
it
may
soon
require
more
calories
to
keep
going,
apparently
leads
to
bodily
hunger,
and
even
though
there
has
been
little
physical
movement,
we
eat.
The
researchers
note
that
tiring
activity
both
increases
the
amount
of
blood
sugar
and
lactate(乳酸盐)circulating
in
the
blood
and
increases
blood
flow
to
the
head.
Because
the
brain
uses
sugar
and
lactate
as
fuel,
researchers
wondered
if
the
increased
flow
of
fuel?rich
blood
during
exercise
could
feed
a
worn?out
brain
and
reduce
the
urge
to
overeat.
Thirty?eight
healthy
college
students
were
invited
to
determine
their
fitness
and
metabolic(新陈代谢)rates
and
to
report
what
their
favorite
pizza
was.
Afterward,
they
sat
quietly
for
35
minutes
before
being
given
as
much
of
their
favorite
pizza
as
they
wanted.
At
a
later
date,
the
volunteers
returned
and
spent
20
minutes
making
selections
from
college
and
graduate?school
entrance
exams.
Next,
half
the
students
sat
quietly
for
15
minutes,
before
being
given
pizza.
The
rest
of
the
volunteers
spent
those
15
minutes
doing
intervals
on
a
treadmill(跑步机)two
minutes
of
hard
running
followed
by
about
one
minute
of
walking,
repeated
five
times.
These
students
were
then
allowed
to
gorge
on
pizza,
too.
But
by
and
large,
they
did
not
overeat.
When
the
researchers
factored
in(将……作为因素考虑)the
calories
burnt
on
running,
they
determined
that
those
students
actually
consumed
200
fewer
total
calories
after
their
brain
workouts
than
the
resting
students.
The
researchers
do
not
know
if
the
runners
consumed
extra
calories
at
dinner.
They
also
cannot
tell
whether
other
types
of
exercise
would
have
the
same
effect
as
running,
although
the
researchers
say
they
suspect
that
if
an
activity
causes
someone
to
break
into
a
sweat,
it
should
also
increase
blood
sugar
and
lactate,
feeding
the
brain
and
weakening
hungers
call.
1.What
do
we
learn
from
the
first
paragraph?
A.We
eat
for
more
physical
movements.
B.A
busy
brain
can
make
one
hungry.
C.Energy
from
the
brain
can’t
be
used
up.
D.An
exam
results
in
caloric
consumption
most.
2.What
can
a
physical
movement
do?
A.Increase
blood
flow.
B.Increase
the
amount
of
blood
sugar.
C.Urge
one
to
eat
more.
D.Make
the
brain
tired.
3.What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“gorge
on”
in
Paragraph
5
mean?
A.Eat.
B.Purchase.
C.Taste.
D.Obtain.
【文章大意】本文为说明文。研究人员猜测,过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量,这显然会导致身体饥饿。由于大脑使用糖和乳酸盐作为燃料,研究人员想知道,在运动过程中增加的富含燃料的血液流量,是否能让疲惫的大脑得到补充,并减少暴饮暴食的冲动。文章介绍了这项研究。
1.B
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Researchers
guess
that
too
much
thinking
consumes
a
lot
of
energy
from
the
brain.
So
the
brain,
sensing
that
it
may
soon
require
more
calories
to
keep
going,
apparently
leads
to
bodily
hunger,
”(研究人员猜测,过多的思考会消耗大脑的大量能量。因此,大脑感觉到它可能很快就需要更多的卡路里来维持运转,显然会导致身体饥饿)”可知,忙碌的大脑会让人感到饥饿。故选B。
2.A
细节理解题。根据第二段“The
researchers
note
that
tiring
activity
both
increases
the
amount
of
blood
sugar
and
lactate(乳酸盐)circulating
in
the
blood
and
increases
blood
flow
to
the
head.
(研究人员指出,累人的活动不仅会增加血液中循环的血糖和乳酸的含量,还会增加流向头部的血液流量)”可知,身体运动能增加血液流动。故选A。
3.A
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“Next,half
the
students
sat
quietly
for
15
minutes,
before
being
given
pizza.”(接下来,一半的学生安静地坐了15分钟,然后给他们吃披萨)以及画线词后文“But
by
and
large,
they
did
not
overeat.(总的来说,他们没有吃得太多)”,画线词句中的too表示“也”,可知这些学生也可以吃比萨。故画线短语意为“吃”。A.
eat吃;B.
purchase购买;C.
taste品尝;D.
obtain获得。故故选A。
B
Learning,
Fast
and
Deep
Over
the
past
five
years
researchers
in
artificial
intelligence
have
become
the
rock
stars
of
the
technology
world.
A
branch
of
AI
known
as
deep
learning,
which
uses
neural(神经的)
networks
to
scan
through
large
volumes
of
data
looking
for
patterns,
has
proven
so
useful
that
skilled
practitioners
can
command
high
six-figure
salaries
to
build
software
for
Amazon,
Apple,
Facebook
and
Google.
The
standard
route
into
these
jobs
has
been
a
PhD
in
computer
science
from
one
of
America’s
top
universities.
Earning
one
takes
years
and
requires
a
personality
suited
to
academia,
which
is
rare
among
more
normal
folk.
That
is
changing.
Last
month
fast.ai,
a
non-profit
education
organization
based
in
San
Francisco,
kicked
off
the
third
year
of
its
course
in
deep
learning.
Since
its
foundation
it
has
attracted
more
than
100,000
students
around
the
globe
from
India
to
Nigeria.
The
course
and
others
like
it,
come
with
a
simple
idea:
there
is
no
need
to
spend
years
obtaining
a
PhD
in
order
to
practise
deep
learning.
Creating
software
that
learns
can
be
taught
as
a
craft,
not
as
a
high
intellectual
pursuit
to
be
undertaken
only
in
an
ivory
tower.
Fast.ai’s
course
can
be
completed
in
just
seven
weeks.
To
make
it
accessible
to
anyone
who
wants
to
learn
how
to
build
AI
software
is
the
aim
of
Jeremy
Howard,
who
founded
fast.ai
with
Rachel
Thomas,
a
mathematician.
He
says
school
mathematics
is
sufficient.
“No.
Greek.
Letters,”
Mr.
Howard
intones,
pounding
the
table
with
his
fist
for
punctuation.
Some
experts
worry
that
this
will
serve
only
to
create
a
flood
of
unreliable
AI
systems
which
will
be
useless
at
best
and
dangerous
at
worst.
In
the
earliest
days
of
the
Internet,
only
a
select
few
nerds,
namely
computerholics
with
specific
skills,
could
build
applications.
Not
many
people
used
them.
Then
the
invention
of
the
World
Wide
Web
led
to
an
explosion
of
web
pages,
both
good
and
bad.
But
it
was
only
by
opening
up
to
all
that
the
Internet
gave
birth
to
online
shopping,
instant
global
communications
and
search.
If
Mr.
Howard
and
others
have
their
way,
making
the
development
of
AI
software
easier
will
bring
forth
a
new
crop
of
fruit
of
a
different?kind.
4.What
can
we
learn
about
deep
learning?
A.It
replaces
artificial
intelligence.
B.It
attracts
rock
stars
to
practice.
C.It
scans
patterns
for
large
companies.
D.It
helps
technicians
to
create
software.
5.Fast.ai
is
an
organization
that
_______.
A.ensures
one
to
obtain
a
PhD
B.teaches

6.A
推理判断题。根据前文To
make
it
accessible
to
anyone
who

C
If
your
life
were
a
book
and
you
were
the
author,
how
would
you
want
your
story
to
go?
That’s
the
question
that
changed
my
life
forever.
At
the
age
of
19,
I
became
a
massage
therapist(治疗师).
For
the
first
time
in
my
life,
I
felt
free,
independent
and
completely
in
control
of
my
life.
That
is,
until
my
life
took
a
detour.
I
was
diagnosed
with
bacterial
meningitis.
Over
the
course
of
two
months,
I
lost
my
spleen(脾)
,
my
kidneys
,
and
both
of
my
legs
below
the
knees.
One
day,
I
went
home.
I
crawled
into
bed
and
this
is
what
my
life
looked
like
for
the
next
few
months:
me
passed
out,
escaping
from
reality,
with
my
legs
resting
by
my
side.
I
was
completely
physically
and
emotionally
broken.
But
I
knew
that
in
order
to
move
forward,
I
had
to
let
go
of
the
old
Amy
and
learn
to
embrace
the
new
Amy.
And
that
is
when
I
began
to
realize
that
I
didn’t
have
to
be
small
any
more.
I
could
be
as
tall
as
I
wanted
or
as
short
as
I
wanted
depending
on
whom
I
was
dating.
And
if
I
snowboard
again,
my
feet
aren’t
going
to
get
cold.
And
the
best
of
all,
I
thought,
I
can
make
my
feet
the
size
of
all
the
shoes
that
are
on
the
sales
shelf.
And
I
did!
I
started
snowboarding.
Then
I
went
back
to
work.
And
then
I
co-founded
a
non-profit
organization
for
physical
disabilities
so
that
they
could
get
involved
in
action
sports.
And
just
this
past
February,
I
won
two
World
Cup
gold
medals,
making
me
the
highest-ranked
adaptive
female
snowboarder
in
the
world.
Eleven
years
ago,
when
I
lost
my
legs,
I
had
no
idea
what
to
expect.
But
if
you
ask
me
today,
if
I
would
ever
want
to
change
my
situation,
I
would
have
to
say
no,
because
my
legs
haven’t
disabled
me.
They’ve
forced
me
to
rely
on
my
imagination
and
to
believe
in
possibilities,
and
that’s
why
I
believe
that
our
imaginations
can
be
used
as
tools
for
breaking
through
borders,
because
in
our
minds,
we
can
do
anything
and
we
can
be
anything.
It’s
belief
in
those
dreams
and
facing
our
fears
directly
that
allow
us
to
live
our
lives
beyond
our
limits.
8.What
can
we
learn

we
can
do
anything
and

Ever
walked
to
the
shops
only
to
find,
once
there,
you’ve
completely
forgotten
what
you
went
for?
Or
struggled
to
remember
the
name
of
an
old
friend?
For
years
we’ve
accepted
that
a
forgetful
brain
is
as
much
a
part
of
aging
as
wrinkles
and
gray
hair.
But
now
a
new
book
suggests
that
we’ve
got
it
all
wrong.
According
to
The
Secret
Life
of
the
Grown-up
Brain,
by
science
writer
Barbara
Strauch,
when
it
comes
to
the
important
things,
our
brains
actually
get
better
with
age.
In
fact,
she
argues
that
some
studies
have
found
that
our
brain
hits
its
peak
between
our
40s
and
60s

much
later
than
previously
thought.
Furthermore,
rather
than
losing
many
brain
cells
as
we
age,
we
keep
them,
and
even
produce
new
ones
well
into
middle
age.
For
years
it’s
been
assumed
that
brain,
much
like
the
body,
declines
with
age.
But
the
longest,
largest
study
into
what
happens
to
people
as
they
age
suggests
otherwise.
This
continuing
research
has
followed
6,000
people
since
1956,
testing
them
every
seven
years.
It
has
found
that
on
average,
participants
performed
better
on
cognitive
(认知的)
tests
in
their
40s
and
50s
than
they
had
done
in
their
20s.
Specifically,
older
people
did
better
on
tests
of
vocabulary,
verbal
memory
(how
many
words
you
can
remember)
and
problem
solving.
Where
they
performed
less
well
was
number
ability
and
perceptual
speed

how
fast
you
can
push
a
button
when
ordered.
However,
with
more
complex
tasks
such
as
problem-solving
and
language,
we
are
at
our
best
at
middle
age
and
beyond.
In
short,
researchers
are
now
coming
up
with
scientific
proof
that
we
do
get
wiser
with
age.
Neuroscientists
are
also
finding
that
we
are
happier
with
aging.
A
recent
US
study
found
older
people
were
much
better
at
controlling
and
balancing
their
emotions.
It
is
thought
that
when
we’re
younger
we
need
to
focus
more
on
the
negative
aspects
of
life
in
order
to
learn
about
the
possible
dangers
in
the
world,
but
as
we
get
older
we’ve
learned
our
lessons
and
are
aware
that
we
have
less
time
left
in
life:
therefore,
it
becomes
more
important
for
us
to
be
happy.
12.Barbara
Strauch
probably
agrees
that
______.
A.the
young
are
better
at
handling
important
things
B.wrinkles
and
gray
hair
are
the
only
symbols
of
aging
C.aging
leads
to
the
decline
of
the
function
of
the
brain
D.people’s
brains
work
best
between
their
40s
and
60s
13.The
continuing
research
has
found
older
people
perform
better
on
______.
A.vocabulary
tests
B.number
ability
C.perceptual
speed
D.body
balance
14.People
are
happier
with
aging
because
______.
A.they
know
how
to
share
feelings
B.they
learn
to
value
the
time
left
C.they
cannot
focus
on
negative
aspects
D.they
do
not
realize
the
possible
dangers
15.What
is
the
main
idea
of
the
passage?
A.People
get
happier
with
age.
B.People
get
more
forgetful
with
age.
C.People
get
wiser
with
age.
D.People
get
more
self-aware
with
age.

people
did
better
on
tests

:
therefore,

for
us
to
be
happy.随着年龄的增长我们学到教训,意识到我们还剩下更少的时间活着,因此,快乐对于我们来说更重要。由此可以推知,随着年龄的增长,人们会更快乐,因为他们学会珍惜剩下的时间,故选B项。

are
now
coming
up

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;选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many
people
would
like
to
return
to
school
to
increase
earning
potential,
realize
dreams,
or
finish
something
they
started
long
ago.
However,
some
have
families
and
jobs,
and
getting
to
day
courses—or
even
night
school—can
be
an
impossible
thing.16.
Thanks
to
the
Internet
and
other
forms
of
quick
communication,
e?learning
for
students
has
become
the
busy
person’s
preferred
method
for
achieving
educational
goals.17.
Below
are
some
examples.
If
you
already
have
a
year
or
two
of
your
degree
behind
you,
e?learning
can
help
you
complete
your
requirements.
Education?minded
employers
often
give
employees
incentives(激励)
to
complete
their
degrees
online.
If
you
are
a
stay?at?home
mom
or
dad
and
looking
to
return
to
the
school
then
you
are
a
best
candidate
for
e?learning.18.
As
long
as
you
can
meet
deadlines
and
perform
high?quality
work,
you
can
achieve
the
highest
educational
goals.
19.
In
this
case,
e?learning
for
students
who
are
already
in
an
advanced
degree
or
specialized
study
satisfies
the
requirement.
You
can
earn
the
master’s
or
doctoral
degree,
as
well
as
high?level
certifications
in
your
online
program.
If
you
live
in
a
place
that
does
not
offer
the
kind
of
education
you
want,
you
may
want
to
look
at
e?learning
in
an
overseas
college
or
university.
For
instance,
England
has
some
of
the
world’s
most
well?known
institutes,
but
many
cannot
go
there
for
an
entire
education.20.
A.What
a
pity
that
they
are
kept
away!
B.Now
they
have
a
new
choice—e?learning.
C.But
its
high?quality
education
can
be
enjoyed
worldwide
now.
D.The
Internet
provides
you
a
new
form
of
learning
to
realize
dreams.
E.
In
reality,
almost
anyone
can
benefit
from
the
flexibility
of
e?learning.
F.
Many
e?courses
allow
you
to
use
the
learning
system
whenever
you
can.
G.
Many
people
have
motivations
for
further
education
past
the
undergraduate
degree.

can
meet
deadlines
and
perform
high?quality
work,
you
can
achieve
the
highest
educational
goals.(只要你能在最后期限前完成高质量的工作,你就能实现最高教育目标)”可知,上文提到了在家全职妈妈或爸爸是网上学习的最佳候选人,可推知本句应当是在说明网上学生适合他们的原因。故F选项“许多网上课程允许你随时使用学习系统”符合语境,故选F。
19.G
根据后文“In

20.C
根据上文“If

Ten
years
ago
I
was
visiting
Costa
Rica
when
I
found
I
was
in
a
bad
situation.
I
only
knew
basic
Spanish,and
the
only
21
I
had
was
some
coins
and
a
return
ticket
to
Guatemala
in
two
weeks.
With
the
coins,I
managed
to
arrive
at
Santa
Rosa
by
bus.
It
was
22
in
the
middle
of
the
night,but
I
could
see
some
23
in
the
distance,so
I
24
toward
them.
I
went
25
door
to
door,explaining
my
situation.
“I
can
26
and
clean
and
look
after
your
kids,I
can
do
anything,can
you
give
me
a
27
?”Everybody
replied
saying
“Oh
my
gosh,but
we
are
so
28
.We
have
no
extra
food.
Maybe
you
can
try
the
next
29
.”
Finally,I
arrived
at
a
Chinese
restaurant,the
owner
of
which
was
incredibly
30
.She
told
me
that
her
son
had
a(n)
31
experience.
At
that
time,some
other
people
were
very
kind
to
him,and
she
remembered
how
32
that
made
her
feel.
She
called
the
Red
Cross
to
33
me.With
their
help,
I
spent
my
34
days
in
Costa
Rica.
I've
35
all
over
the
world.
But
this
was
one
of
the
best
trips,the
best
two
36
I
ever
had
in
my
traveling
life.
At
first,I
felt
37
and
stupid
for
not
traveling
with
a
clear
plan.
But
then
I
realized
that
when
you’re
in
a
position
to
be
able
to
38
,it
actually
makes
people
feel
happier.
Being
able
to
receive
kindness
is
a
39
for
other
people
as
well.
And
kindness
40
more
kindness
in
small
ripples(涟漪).

Jenny,
my
cousin,
joined
Doctors
Without
Borders
after
graduating
from
a
nursing
school
last
year.
Now
she
works
as
a
volunteer
in
Kenya.
The
reason
that
she
joined
the
organization
is
because
she
wants
to
help
others
and
make
a
difference
to
others’
lives.
Every
day,
she
has
a
busy
schedule,
distributing
food
to
hungry
people,
checks
the
health
of
babies
and
giving
children
shots
to
protecting
them
from
diseases.
In
my
letter,
she
says
that
she
is
trying
to
adapt
to
the
rough
conditions
there.
That
my
cousin
is
doing
has
been
had
a
great
influence
on
me.
I
have
now
joined
my
school
volunteer
team
and
I
went
to
the
city
hospital
to
help
the
patients
with
my
classmates
every
Sunday.
I
feel
happily
because
I
can
do
something
to
help
those
are
in
need.
【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者受表姐的影响,想帮助别人,故加入学校志愿者组织的故事。
第一处:tha→why
考查定语从句。句意:她加入这个组织的原因是她想帮助别人,改变别人的生活。分析句子可知,此处是定语从句,先行词为the
reason,且先行词在从句中做原因状语,故应用关系副词
why来引导。故把that改为why。
第二处:because→that
考查表语从句。句意:她加入这个组织的原因是她想帮助别人,改变别人的生活。分析句子可知,此处是一个表语从句;成分齐全,句意完整,用that引导表语从句,无词义,仅起引导作用,the
reason
why…is
that…表示“……的原因是……”,故把because
改为that。
第三处:checks→checking
考查非谓语动词。句意:每天,她都很忙,给饥饿的人分发食物,检查婴儿的健康,给孩子们注射疫苗以保护他们远离疾病。分析句子可知,句中已有谓语动词has,故此处应用非谓语动词,且check与she之间是主动关系。故把checks改为checking。
第四处:protecting→protect
考查不定式。句意:每天,她都很忙,给饥饿的人分发食物,检查婴儿的健康,给孩子们注射疫苗以保护他们远离疾病。分析句子可知,给孩子注射疫苗的目的是保护他们,使他们远离疾病,故应用动词不定式表示目的。故把protecting改为protect。
第五处:my→her
考查代词。句意:她在信中说,她正在努力适应那里的恶劣条件。此处属于人称错误。分析上下文可知,是表姐在信中描述的事情。故把my改为her。
第六处:That→What
考查主语从句。句意:我表姐的所作所为对我产生了很大的影响。分析句子可知,此处是一个主语从句,且主语从句中doing后缺宾语,故把That改为What。
第七处:把been去掉
考查动词语态。句意:我表姐的所作所为对我产生了很大的影响。分析句子可知,此处表示表姐的所作所为对我产生了很大的影响,是一个主动的动作。故把been去掉。
第八处:went→go
考查时态。句意:我现在加入了我们学校的志愿者队,每个星期天我和同学去市医院帮助病人。根据句子中的every
Sunday可知,此处描述的是作者现在经常做的事情,故应用一般现在时。故把went改为go。
第九处:happily→happy考查形容词。句意:我感到高兴,因为我可以做一些事情来帮助那些有需要的人。分析句子可知,句中的feel是感官动词,其后应用形容词。故把happily改为happy。
第十处:在those后加who或去掉are
考查定语从句。句意:我感到高兴,因为我可以做一些事情来帮助那些有需要的人。分析句子可知,此处是一个定语从句,先行词是those,且其在从句中做主语,故应在those后加上who;也可去掉are,in

Dear
Tony,
I’m
Li
Hua.
It's
my
honor
to
be
invited
to
go
cycling
with
you
in
the
forest
park
this
weekend
But
with
something
unclear,
I'm
writing
to
ask
you
for
some
information.
To
begin
with,
I'm
eager
to
know
when
we
will
start
and
return
so
that
I
can
make
a
proper
arrangement.
I'
m
also
wondering
whether
I
can
invite
a
few
friends
to
go
with
us.
I
think
our
trip
will
be
more
enjoyable
if
more
cycling
lovers
join
us.
Besides,
what
about
our
lunch?
My
suggestion
is
that
we
bring
our
lunch
in
case
there
is
no
food
available
when
we
are
hungry.
I’d
be
appreciated
if
you
could
give
me
an
early
reply.
Yours
sincerely,
Li
Hua
