高二英语 第 1 页 共 11 页 哈一中 2019---2020 学年度下学期期末考试 高二英语 阅读理解(40 分) A Have fun at the airport If you have found yourself with a layover (短暂停留) at Edinburgh Airport, you may be wondering what to do with your time. Hang out in the lounge (休息室) An airport lounge might be just what you need during your layover – a one-stop shop for simple food, drinks, solid WiFi, and comfortable seating. Luckily, two airport lounges are provided for every traveler, no matter your airline or class flown. Simply pre-book a visit online or use your lounge membership program to get lounge access. Treat yourself You’ve got the time, so why not treat yourself? The Aero Spa (open daily) offers beauty treatments, including hair styling and facials, plus massage services to work out the pain in your neck from your last flight. Look at some art Head to Gate 13 to browse the airport’s art gallery, which changes exhibits by Scottish artists. Some of the paintings are even up for sale. Airport hotels If sleeping in Edinburgh Airport does not appeal to you, there are some hotels near the airport: ◎DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Edinburgh Airport – (7 minute walk or 2 minute drive from the airport) A free airport shuttle leaves from the airport terminal (stance 2) every 15 minutes 高二英语 第 2 页 共 11 页 between 3:00 AM to 10:00 AM. ◎Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh Airport – (12 minute walk or 5 minute drive from the airport) An airport shuttle bus runs to and from the airport. Single tickets ( £ 1) and return tickets (£2) are available. ◎Premier Inn Edinburgh Airport – (20 minute walk or 8 minute drive from the airport) The airport shuttle bus is £1.50 single and £3 return. ◎Ibis Budget Hotel Edinburgh Park – (6 minutes from the airport) No airport shuttle. ◎Observe the airport traffic Aviation fans can watch the traffic come and go on the runway. Head to the cafes or restaurants near Gate 12 for the best views. ◎Check out Edinburgh If you have a layover of at least 5 hours, you’ll have enough time to check out Edinburgh itself. Check your bags in the arrival area and head to the bus or tram to get into the city. The Airport Link 100 bus leaves every 10 minutes and takes about 30 minutes to reach Waverley Bridge. Edinburgh trams leave every 7 minutes and take about 30 minutes as well. You can purchase one-way fare or a discounted round-trip. 1. What do we know about the lounge service? A. It is only available for first-class travelers. B. It provides passengers with comfortable beds. C. There are three lounges at Edinburgh Airport. D. Travelers can pre-book it online. 2. If you are interested in art, you should go to ______. A. Gate 12 B. Gate 13 C. the airport’s cafes D. the Aero Spa 3. How much is a round-trip ticket to Premier Inn Edinburgh Airport?高二英语 第 3 页 共 11 页 A. £2. B. £3. C. £4. D. £6. 4. How often does the Airport Link 100 bus run to Waverley Bridge? A. Every 5 minutes B. Every 7 minutes C. Every 10 minutes D. Every 30 minutes B For some students, their major may serve as a path to a lifelong career. For others, their major only represents a transient academic interest. According to a recent career survey released by Beijing Municipal Commission of Education, about 45 percent of graduate students work in an area unrelated to their major. When they first started university, only 25 percent of them were satisfied with their major, while 17 percent were unsatisfied with their curriculum. Cao Xuelin, 27, an online game designer at Tencent Technology Co., Ltd. studied a purely theoretic discipline but now finds himself working in a very pragmatic industry. "I studied mathematics at university, not computer science, but I began to work as a software designer after my graduation," said Cao, who initially thought he would become a math teacher or work for a research institute. It is difficult finding a job relating to a specific major, especially when your major is regarded as highly "impractical". In fact, many of Cao’s classmates became finance analysts or even work in public relations. "Assuming a job has to be tied directly to your major is a very old-fashioned way of thinking. Employer’s attitudes have changed completely," said Wang Xiaojun, HR director at General Electric Company." Knowledge, adaptability, practical work experience and the ability to analyze from a well-rounded perspective are more important to employers than your majors." Sometimes, when you engage in a different field of work, you may not even realize how much your college major is helping you. Chen Juan, 24, a psychology major from Beijing Normal University, now works for Ogilvy & Mather Advertising as a project manager. "Psychology helps a lot at work because my current job involves a lot of consumer strategy. It also requires the ability to do research and data analysis, which I gained during my studies," 高二英语 第 4 页 共 11 页 she said. As a result, when Chen looks at the resumes of potential hires, she doesn’t restrict herself to looking at those with a major specifically relating to advertising. "Even if a candidate majored in biology, I would only consider their genuine interest in the advertising and marketing industry." So, how should students deal with the potential discord between their major and career? One possibility is to study across a wide range, or to foster interests in different areas. Above all, Zhu Hong, director of the Employment Guidance Center at Nankai University, believes that studying one’s major well still matters. "Explore, have fun and consult your faculty, friends and family when in need of guidance." 5. The writer mentions Cao Xuelin’s story in the article to show that________. A.it is easy for graduates to find jobs that are unrelated to their majors B.most students were not satisfied with their major when they started university C.it is difficult for students studying theoretic disciplines to find jobs related to their majors D.graduates are more likely to find their jobs that are quite different from what they thought 6. What does the underlined word "pragmatic" in Paragraph 4 mean? A. theoretical B. practical C. small D. impractical 7. According to Wang Xiaojun, employers now attach greater importance to the following except__________. A. your way of understanding things B. your major in university C. your experience in the related field D. your ability to adapt to the changing world 8. What’s the best title for this article? A. Attitudes to Majors Change B. Lifelong Career and Majors C. Job Hunters’ Dilemma D. Majors do Count高二英语 第 5 页 共 11 页 C Good news for people who have difficulty in remembering things. A memory technique invented by the ancient Greeks has recently been proved to be able to greatly improve ordinary people’s memory ability. You may even become a memory champion if you practice hard enough. This is according to a study published in the journal Neuron. Researchers from Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands found that memory champions aren’t all that different to us. People with an average memory can greatly improve their memory ability by using what’s known as the "mind palace" method. The method is the secret weapon of the fictional character Sherlock Holmes. In order to do this, you need to picture a place you’re familiar with, such as your living room. Then, you have to remember this place in as much detail as possible as this is your own mind palace. Suppose you want to remember a shopping list. You can start by spreading out all the items around your living room in your mind. This means each item on your list is connected with a remembered place in your living room. You travel to that remembered place as you recall the list. To explore the effects of this method on the brain, researchers gathered 51 participants with average memory levels and no previous memory training. After 40 days of daily 30-minute training sessions, participants doubled the amount of words they could remember – they went from recalling an average of 26 words out of 72, to an impressive 62. Four months later, even without continued training, their recall performance remained high. "Once you are familiar with these strategies and know how to apply them, you can keep your performance high without much further training," Martin Dresler, assistant professor from Radboud University Medical Center, told the Daily Mail. In addition, the training also affects the way our brain cells connect. After training, the way that the participants’ brain cells connect began to be like those of memory champions compared to scans taken before training. Researchers believe this could be responsible for their increased memory. But what makes this research so fascinating is that it seems to prove that the talent to store things in your mind isn’t down to genes. Dresler found there was no difference in brain structure between memory champions and normal people, which means memory champions are not born with different brains. "They, without a single exception, trained for months and years using methods to achieve these high levels of performance," Dresler told Science Daily. It’s clear that more studies are needed to find out what’s going on here, but the "mind 高二英语 第 6 页 共 11 页 palace" method might be your best bet to never forget an important name, date or appointment ever again. 9. The main purpose of the text is to ______. A. present a research on a memory improvement strategy B. explore the secrets of memory champions C. argue whether good memory is natural or trained D. explain how a memory improvement strategy works. 10. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the "mind palace" method? A. The method became popular because of Sherlock Holmes. B. People need to draw a familiar place on paper before using the method. C. The effects of this method are likely to fade when the training stops. D. The method relies on a connection with a familiar environment to remember things. 11. What would Martin Dresler probably agree with? A. People’s memory level has a lot to do with their brain structure. B. Memory champions are often born with outstanding memory ability. C. Memory training could change the way our brain cells connect. D. With continued training, everyone can develop into a memory champion. D Africa’s human lessons It is surprising that, although disease is such a big problem in Africa, the majority of medical research happens in Europe. Genetic research in a continent where genetic diversity is high, like Africa, can give us a better understanding of why people get certain diseases. A new study helps us understand genetic variation in different regions and groups of people. It also shows how humans moved across Africa thousands of years ago. This study has taken around two and a half years to complete. A team of scientists worked with doctors and experts across Africa and took genetic samples from 1,481 people from 18 groups in central and southern Africa. Imagine a bottle filled with little stones. All the stones are different shapes, colors and sizes. One or two fall out, move to different places and create new stones that look the same. The many stones left in the bottle are Africa’s population, which is why Africa has the most diverse population in the world. The one or two stones that fell out and created new stones are the 高二英语 第 7 页 共 11 页 populations of other parts of the world. They are less diverse. This is what happened about 80 to 100 thousand years ago, when some people left Africa and travelled to Europe and Asia. Many events in history have joined different groups together and changed the genetic map of the continent. One of the biggest events happened with a language group in Africa called the Bantu. Around 70 percent of Africans belong to this group. They were farmers who moved across Africa around 5,000 years ago. When they moved, they often mixed with local people. Genetic research also shows that some Europeans and Asians might have moved back to Africa 9,000 years ago. One of the main results of the study is that large genetic research projects in Africa that don’t cost too much money have been made possible. More studies could help us understand different diseases better, but this might take a long time. It may be half a century before we can get direct health benefits, but starting the investment (投资) in this research now could have big benefits, too. If we understand the genetic map of Africa, we can understand diseases that affect Africans better. And this means we can start to develop better ways of helping the people of Africa. 12. According to the article, the new study ______. A. collected genetic samples from all parts of Africa B. is based on the assumption that humans originated from the African continent C. shows what the major movements of humans across different continents thousands of years ago were D. proves that the genetic map of the African continent has remained the same for 80 to 100 thousand years 13. The example of "a bottle filled with little stones" is used to ______. A. show how new populations are created B. illustrate why Africa has a large population C. explain why Africa’s population is the most diverse in the world D. show the makeup of the populations of the world 14. Which factors have mainly influenced the genetic map of Africa according to the article? A. Population size and makeup. B. Wars and other violent events. C. People’s migration and the way they have mixed.D. Big changes in lifestyle and language. 15. It can be concluded from the last paragraph that ______. A. carrying out large genetic research projects in Africa is not affordable高二英语 第 8 页 共 11 页 B. the study has found the relationship between genetic diversity and different diseases C. genetic studies will help us get rid of different diseases in Africa in the future D. the health benefits of genetic studies will not be seen in the near future E Many of us might want to take on traditional jobs when we grow up, such as being a doctor or lawyer. ___16___ In October, job-hunting website Zhaopin.com issued a report after surveying people who work in more than 800 different jobs in major Chinese cities. These jobs include early childhood educator, fitness coach and makeup artist. ___17___The top-paying job is veterinarian – about 29 percent of these animal doctors earn over 20,000 yuan per month. ___18___ Over 60 percent of the surveyed workers have a college degree or above, the report says.

Pet owners will spend over 5,000 yuan per pet this year, an increase of 15 percent from 2017, Xinhua reported.___20___ A. Many of the jobs are no longer specific to one gender. B. These workers’ educational background is also impressive. C. There are many reasons for changes in the job market. D. However, there are many more choices than just these that are available today. E. It is becoming increasingly difficult for graduates to fulfill their job expectations. F. Most of the jobs pay well, with one in three workers earning more than 8,000 yuan a month.
