Too much TV 46 has made many kids grow fat. 47 , in 2001’s TV-Turnoff Week, US Surgeon General David Satcher said, “We are raising the most 48 generation of youngsters in American history. This week is about saving lives.” Over the years, studies have shown that watching a lot of TV 49 poor eating habits, too little exercise, and violence. Frank Vespe of the TV-Turnoff Network said that turning off the TV “is or 50 , part of a healthy lifestyle”. “One of the great lessons of 51 TV-Turnoff Week is the realization that 52 I turn on the TV, I’m deciding not to do something else,” Vespe said.

Right? Of course. But is left wrong? Well, the Romans used to think so. They thought left-handed people were mistakes of nature. Latin, the language of the Romans, had many words that expressed this view. Some words we use today still have this meaning. The Latin word “dexter” means “right”. The English word “dexterous” comes from this word. It means “handy” (clever with hands). So, right is handy. But the Latin word for left is “sinister”. The English word “sinister” comes from this word. Sinister means “evil” (very bad). Is it fair to call right-handed people handy and left-handed people evil? Well, fair or not, many languages have words that express such beliefs. In old English, the word for left means “weak”. That isn’t much of an improvement over “evil”. Not very long ago, children were often forced to write with their right hands. Doctors have since found that this can be very harmful. You should use the hand you were born to use.People who use their left hands are just starting to get better treatment. But why they get all these bad names in the first place? One reason may be that there are not as many left-handed people as there are right-handed people. There is one left-handed person for every five right-handed ones. People who are different are often thought to be wrong. But attitudes do seem to be changing. Fair-minded right-handed people are finally starting to give left-handed people a hand.56. What does the passage lead us to believe when one writes?A. He can only use his right hand.B. He can only use his left hand.C. He can use either his left hand or his right hand.D. He can use both his left hand and his right hand.57. The last sentence of this article means ________.A. Fair-minded right-handed people want to change the habit of the left-handed peopleB. Fair-minded right-handed people are starting to help the left-handed peopleC. Fair-minded right-handed people are starting to use left hand to write and so onD. Fair-minded right-handed people are starting to give up using their left hands58. After we read the article we can certainly know that _______.A. left-handed people have been treated poorlyB. the number of the left-handed people is larger than that of right-handed peopleC. right-handed people are much cleverer than left-handed peopleD. left-handed people are less smart but hardworking59. Which of the following is NOT right, according to the article?A. At one time, left-handed people were forced to use their right hands.B. Left-handed people today are being treated better than those in the past.C. There are not as many left-handed people as there are right-handed people today.D. “Dexterous” comes from Latin, means “evil” and English “sinister” means “handy”.B◆1.

Listings.CSpecial Bridges Help Animals Cross the Road—Reported by Sheila Carrick Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear (灰熊) and mountain lion can cross the road. “Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill. “Ecopassages(生态通道)” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society. But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage.Builders of ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders (火蜥蜴) and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!63. The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that _______.A. wild animals have become more dangerousB. the driving conditions have improved greatlyC. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to workD. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents64. From the news story, we know an ecopassage is ________.A. an underground path for cars B. a fence built for the safety of the areaC. a bridge for animals to get over a river D. a path for animals to cross the road65. When the writer says that animals seem “to be catching on”, he means ________.A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the roadB. animals begin to learn to use ecopassagesC. animals are crossing the road in groupsD. animals are increasing in number66. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because ________.A. wild animals may attack cars B. wild animals may jam (阻塞) the roadC. they may see wild animals in the park D. they may see wild animals on ecopassagesD Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which are considered taboos(禁忌) in a particular culture. Latin Americans enjoy sharing information about their local history, art, and customs. They expect questions about their family and are sure to show pictures of their children. You may feel free to ask similar questions of your Latin American friends. The French think of conversation as an art form, and they enjoy the value of lively discussions as well as disagreements. For them, arguments can be interesting — and they can cover pretty much or any topic — as long as they occur in a respectful and intelligent manner.In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they’re trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children.As general rule, it’s best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one’s salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host’s team.67. The author considers politics and religion ________.A. cheerful topics B. taboosC. rude topics D. topics that can never be talked about68. Which is typically a friendly topic in most places according to the author?A. Sports. B. Children. C. Personal feelings. D. Families.69. Why are people from Asia more private in their conversation with others?A. They don’t want to talk with others much.B. They don’t want to have their good relationship with others harmed by informal conversation.C. They are afraid to argue with their colleagues.D. They want to keep their feelings to themselves.70. What shouldn’t you do when talking about sports with colleagues from another country?A. Praising your own country’s sports. B. Criticizing your own country’s sports.C. Praising the sports of your colleagues’ country.D. Criticizing the sports of your colleagues’ country.E In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition (学会) of each new skill in the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself. Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe (严格的) over time of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness. As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled. A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.71. Eagerly watching the child's acquisition of new skills, ___________.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make the child lose interest in learning new things72. In the process of children's learning new skills, parents ________.A. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they readB. should expect a lot of the childrenC. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. should create as many learning opportunities as possible73. The second paragraph mainly tells us that ___________.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parental controls reflect only the values of the communityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always for the benefit of the children aloneD. it's parents' and society's duty to control the children74. The word "precept" in Paragraph 3 probably means "___________".A. opinion B. punishment C. behavior D. instruction75. In terms of moral matters, parents should _________.A. follow the rules themselvesB. be aware of the huge difference between adults and childrenC. forbid their children to follow hook teachingsD. always ensure the security of their children
高三上期第二次阶段考英语答题卷第Ⅱ卷(共35分)第一节: 任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society, and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people traditionally prioritize caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned. Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences. In spite of common practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts. Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship. In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others. Are Modern People Becoming More Selfish?Main comparisons Contexts76._¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬_______ are changing In the past people put caring, sharing and generosity in the first 77.___________.

C。推断题。根据文章第2段最后一句医生的建议You should use the hand you were born to use可推知此题的答案为C。57. B。根据短语give sb a hand 的意思是“帮某人的忙”,可推知此题的答案为B。58. A。推断题。根据文章第1段对left的解释及第2段第1句讲强迫小孩用右手,可推知此题答案为A。59.

C 细节理解题。通读第3则广告即Tour of love可知这则广告是关于著名歌星陶姞的演。唱会的,故选C。62. D 主旨大意题。可用排除法。4篇短文系一些演出或展览活动的列表/清单,故选D。63. D 通过“ocelots”的例子来说明前面“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,”这句话,64.

B 推理判断题。根据文章第一段开头In bringing up children,every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition of each new skill,既然是每位父母都会这样做,那么这种做法在父母中就是普遍的,故选B,根据文章第一段第二句,选项C。sets up dangerous states of worry in the child是由hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate引起的,“迫不及待地要求孩子做超出其自然成长速度的事情”和“热切地观察孩子学会每一项新技能”显然不是一回事,作者对后者没有否定之意,所以A不对。根据文章第一段末句,选项取D,will make him lose interest in learning new things是由a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities引起的。故D也不合文意。72. C 推理判断题。文章第一段第二句It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate,but this can set Up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child,说明在孩于成长过程中,父母不能拔苗助长。文章第一段末句又说:On the other hand,though,if a child is left alone too much,or without any learning opportunities,he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself,说明对孩子太放任自流同样不利。根据这两方面,应选C,父母对孩子的“严”与“松”之间应有一个恰当的度。73. C 主旨大意题。文章第二段的大意是:“父母对孩子的严格程度有很大的不同”。74. D 词义推测题. 四个选项的意思分别是:A. opinion(观点);B. punishment(惩罚);C. bebaviour(行为);D. instruction(说教,源于instruct)。根据文章第三段第三,四句Also,parents should realize that“example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach(说教)…可以推测,precept应表达与example对立的意思,且与preach是同义词,引语的意思是“榜样比说教更有力”,故选项D为最佳选项。75. A 推理判断题. 根据文章第三段第四句,再根据文章最后一段,可以得出结论,关于道德教育问题,父母应该以身作则,带头遵循,(参见上一小题之解析),故选A。任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)76.Values 77 place 78. concerned 79. Behaviors 80. goals/aims 81.

People hold different views towards failure in their life. Some people are so sad and disappointed at their unsuccessful attempts that they will never get up the courage to have another try .Other people view repeated failures as most natural on the way towards achievement—they will keep on trying until they succeed in the end. Personally ,I agree with the second group of people .If you have only had wonderful things happen to you ,how can you become brave? Few people can be successful in the first place ,and failure can teach us much more than success .From now on I will not be much too discouraged at failures .On the contrary, I will stand up to the next challenge and move on to my goal with hope.
