第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货)，saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, and then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter
how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
21. Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A. The man’s job was bike racing.
B. It was their only possession.
C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
D. They used it for work and daily life.
22. We can infer from the text that ________.
A. the couple worked 60 hours a week
B. people were busy before Christmas
C. the stranger brought over the bike
D. life was hard for the young family
23. How did people get to know the couple’s problem?
A. From radio broadcasts.
B. From a newspaper.
C. From TV news.
D. From a stranger.
24. What do the couple learn from their experience?
A. Strangers are usually of little help.
B. One should take care of their bike.
C. News reports make people famous.
D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.
B
A new word has suddenly become wildly popular in China—“tuhao”—which loosely means “nouveau riche”. There have been more than 100 million references to the word “tuhao” on social media since early September.
It’s being u sed to describe everything from the new p eople’s daily building, to expensive celebrity weddings full of millionaires, and the new gold-colored iPhone.
In Chinese “tu” means earth and “hao” means rich. To say someone is tuhao is to imply they come from a poor peasant background, and have made it rich quickly—but don’t quite have the manners to go along with it. “It’s like the term ‘nouveau riche’”, says Professor Steve Tsang at the School of Contemporary Chinese Studies in Nottingham, “but has even more negative meanings, suggesting a certain vulgarity(粗俗).”
“Tuhao” is actually an old word, dating back perhaps as far as the Southern Dynasty—1,500 years ago, but it has always meant something rather different. During the communist revolution, from the 1920s to early 1950s, it was widely used to refer to landholders and gentry(乡绅)who would often do bad things to those beneath them. This new usage of the term took off in September after a widely-shared joke about a rich, but unhappy man, who goes to a Buddhist monk for advice, expecting to be told to live a more simple life. The monk replies instead with a sentence, “Tuhao, let’s be friends!”
Chinese Internet users are highly creative in their use of language, and are constantly inventing, and re-inventing words as a way of getting past censorship(审查) rules. But in this case, its popularity seems to be down to the fact that it expresses China’s changing society so well—many people sneer at those with wealth, but are secretly jealous.
25. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Tuhao, a newly popular word in China
B. The long history of Tuhao
C. The new usage of Tuhao
D. Tuhao, a newly-invented Chinese word
26. Which of the following may NOT be considered “tuhao”?
A. A vulgar nouveau riche.
B. A landholder.
C. A quick-rich peasant without proper manners.
D. A Buddhist monk.
27. The last but one paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A. what the new usage of the word is
B. how the word becomes popular again
C. why the unhappy man went to the Buddhist monk
D. what advice the monk gave the unhappy man
28. What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean?
A. Respect.
B. Envy.
C. Laugh.
D. Disbelieve.
C
No one can fail to stand in awed (令人敬畏的) admiration of the great discoveries of history—Newton’s laws of motion, Kepler’s principle of planetary movement, Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Equally awe-inspiring are artistic creations in painting, theatre, music, and literature, which have also been brought about by discovery through personal efforts. What do these extraordinary achievements of well-known scientists and artists have to do with problem solving?
A great scientific discovery or a great work of art is surely the result of problem-solving activity. The solution to a problem, we are told, often comes to thinkers in a “flash of insight (顿悟)”, although they may have been turning the problem over in their minds for some time. As a particular form of problem solving, these creative acts are based on the broad knowledge gained in the past, whether this is of the “public” sort known to science, or of the “private” sort known to the artist.
Many creative thinkers state that they have completely devoted themselves to the subject matter of the problem, often over fairly long periods of time. Indeed, it would be strange if they had not done this. Nothing in such statements supports the idea that there is anything very different about the problem solving that leads to
discoveries of the great contributions to the society. The act of discovery, even in the relatively predictable sense that it occurs in everyday learning, involves a “sudden insight” which changes the problem situation into a solution situation. As we have seen, everyday discovery also requires that the learner have the knowledge of the rules gained in the past, which is involved in the solution.
29. Newton, Kepler and Einstein are mentioned in the first paragraph to ________.
A. bring about the subject of the discussion
B. explain that scientists are more creative
C. show the difference between science and arts
D. prove that arts require more personal efforts
30. While knowledge from the past plays an important role in their achievements,
thinkers
sometimes also depend on their ________.
A. artistic tastes
B. sudden insight
C. admiration of discoveries
D. scientific experiments
31. What does the underlined word “this” refer to?
A. Great contributions to the society.
B. Long-time study of the subject matter.
C. Various statements about problem solving.
D. Complete devotion to artistic creation.
32. We may conclude from the passage that ________.
A. it is more likely to make scientific and artistic discoveries in everyday
learning
B. scientific discoveries or artistic creations are usually unpredictable in
nature
C. a sudden insight and knowledge from the past are required in making discoveries
D. knowledge of the rule in the past is often developed in the changes of situation
D
People have been dreaming up horrible monsters and scary spirits for centuries. The vampire, an “undead” creature thirsty for blood, is one of the most inventive and attractive creatures of all. It’s also one of the most lasting. Vampire-like creatures date back to thousands of years ago, and pop up in dozens of different cultures.
In this article, we’ll see where the various elements of the vampire legend come from. We’ll also look at the psychological significance of these creatures and find out about some real-life people or things that are remarkably similar to the supernatural vampire.
The vampires in today’s books, movies and television shows are incredibly complicated creatures. According to the mythology(神话), every vampire was once a human, who, after being bitten by a vampire, died and rose from the grave as a monster.
Vampires desire the blood of the living, whom they hunt during the night. They bite their victims’ necks with their two sharp front teeth.
Since they’re back-to-life corpses—the living remains of a dead person—vampires are often referred to as “the undead”. They can still pass as healthy humans, however, and will walk undetected among the living. In fact, vampires may be attractive, highly sexual beings, seducing(引诱)their prey before feeding. A vampire may also take the form of an animal, usually a bat or wolf, in order to launch a sudden attack on a victim before being detected.
Vampires are potentially immortal(不死的), but they do have a few weaknesses. They can be destroyed by a fire or direct sunlight, and they are afraid of holy water and garlic. Vampires don’t cast a reflection, and they have superhuman strength.
This vampire figure, with its particular combination of characteristics and governing rules, is actually a fairly recent invention. Bram Stoker made it up in his l897 novel Dracula. Other authors reinterpreted(重新解释) Dracula in a number
of plays, movies and books.
But while the many details are new, most of the individual elements of the legend have deep roots, extending across many regions and cultures. In the next few sections, we’ll…
33. From the first two paragraphs, we can know that ________.
A. vampire stories only exist in European cultures
B. vampires will die in 3 days without drinking blood
C. vampire stories have existed since a long time ago
D. vampires actually exist in real life
34. According to the passage, which of the following best matches the image of a vampire?
A. a wolf standing still by the lake staring at its own reflection in the water
B. a strong man with sunglasses sunbathing on the beach
C. a lonely old man sitting by the campfire crushing garlic
D. a sexy young woman dressed in a long skirt sipping wine in a night club
35. The underlined sentence of the last paragraph is not complete. Which of the following should be the missing part？
A. try to find out more about the eating habits of vampires
B. look at some of more famous vampire ancestors
C. read some romantic love stories in which vampires fall in love with humans
D. start a tour exploring some of the best vampire films of all time
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的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everyone sleeps. However, taking the time to develop a sleep habit is probably the last thing on your mind and some sleep advice simply can’t be forgotten. 36 .
Watching TV until you fall asleep
It has nothing to do with what you watch—TV news isn’t a better pre-sleep choice than TV series. 37 . The bright light keeps you awake all the night. So even if you nod off (in front of the TV, for example), you probably won’t stay asleep for long.
Sleeping with pets
38 . They get comfortable, and then they move. This goes on all night, and whether you admit it or not, it interrupts your ability to get the level of sleep needed to feel rested.
Eating fatty, heavy foods too close to bedtime
Heartburn (烧心，胃痛) strikes anyone of any age, but it’s the most common GI disorder in older adults. If you’ve ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you’ve probably found the discomfort of stomach preventing you from falling asleep or staying asleep.
39 .
Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever—turning over and over again, never really feeling rested? Well, heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect—it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed until your body temperature drops to normal, which may take several hours.
Accepting snoring (打呼噜) as normal sleep behavior
Snoring may seem as common as breathing, but it’s considered the biggest sleep killer, and it’s linked to several causes: sleeping on your back, being overweight, having a cold, drinking, or taking drugs. 40 . For the snorer, it disturbs sleep by awakening him/her every so often in order to breathe normally. For the partner, the noise can be unbearable.
A. Exercising heavily too close to bedtime
B. Here are some suggestions you’ll need to follow
C. Reducing your body temperature before bedtime
D. Rather it’s the TV’s bright light that is the criminal
E. Here are some bad habits you need to get rid of
F. Most seriously, it’s caused by a dangerous illness
G. Pets sleep most of the day, and they move a lot when sleeping

Dear Tom,
How is everything going? High school students are faced with a choice between arts and science. It was not an easy choice for me to make. After careful consideration, though, I decided on science as my main subject of study. The reasons are as follows.
First, science graduates are in greater demand than arts ones in China. Second, the science major can help me achieve my childhood dream of becoming a scientist. Third, my parents wish me to study science at college because they believe I will have a brighter future as a science student. Last but not least, my physics teacher is my role model, whose influence on me had a lot to do with my decision. It is for these reasons that I finally made my choice.
Which choice will you make?
I am looking forward to your reply.
Dear Tom,
How is everything going? High school students are faced with a choice between arts and science. It was not an easy choice for me to make. After careful consideration, though, I decided on arts as my main subject of study. The reasons are as follows.
First, the number of arts graduates is much smaller than that of science ones, which means there will be more jobs available to arts graduates. Second, the arts major can help me achieve my childhood dream of becoming a reporter. Third, my parents wish me to study arts at college because they believe I will have a brighter future as an arts student. Last but not least, my English teacher is my role model, whose influence on me had a lot to do with my decision. It is for these reasons that I finally made my choice.
Which choice will you make?
I am looking forward to your reply.

高二下学期英语期中考试试卷、考试分析及自我反思 高二下学期英语期中考试试卷、考试分析及自我反思 一、试卷评价 本次考试试卷质量较高，切合高考难度及重点。该套试卷按照高考题型及命题原则命题，考察了学生的听、读和写以及语言知识综合应用能力，体现了高中英语教学目的和新改教学精神。 二、试卷分析 本套试卷按照高考题的标准，主要分为一卷单选和二卷语法填空，改错和书面表达。首先分析本次的一卷。一卷主要包括听力，阅读理解和完型填空三个大题。其中听力共20小题，30分；阅读理解4篇共1题30分，七选五小题，10分；完形填空20题，30分。本次一卷失分最重的是听力。听力难度比较大，很多都没有直接答案，而且表达时间的词，如inutes left,和生词hesi，get arried，学生直接就听不出。本套试卷的听力，考察时间的3小题，难度都较大。本题主要考察学生对信息的整体把握以及理解，这正是一二区学生的能力缺乏的地方。所以失分较多。阅读理解题较简单，细节理解的题目较多，推理判断题目适中。整体说虽然阅读理解难度有所降低，但是很多题设计很灵活，比如说第二篇，失分非常多，但是通过简单的推理排除就能从中把答案都排除掉，仍然很多人做错。阅读理解是英语的半边天。
也是学生的难点，应继续练习。本套试卷中的七选五难度较高，不是简单的根据关键词或者首句判断，而是考察学生对整个语篇的理解，以及掌握。但是考察语篇的理解已经渐渐成为高考重点，应该强掉让学生练习这一方面的能力。本套题的完型填空难度较大，提示词较少，且理解较为困难，出错较多。 本套题二卷主要包括语法填空，改错以及书面表达三个大题。本套题的语法填空考察知识主要包括代词bth，副词修饰动词，形容词修饰名词，固定搭配，非谓语，非限制性定语从句以及形容词性物主代词加名词。较为简单。改错主要考察学生的语感以及跟语法填空相似的语法考察。本次改错考察介词后加ding，nthing和sething却别，se+名词复数，固定搭配，连词，时态以及副词修饰动词等。虽然难度较小，但学生做题量不够，不能第一时间找出错点。本次试卷的作涉及题型为书面表达。题目较为简单。谈论喜欢的运动，但是学生普遍失分较多。 总体说本套题难易相宜，且非常贴合高考难度，质量较好。 英语考试分析 本次考试科英语被一区落下221分。从成绩上分析，问题主要集中在二卷，被落下3分。但是一卷也没有达到理想成绩。听力部分和完形填空部分失分较多，问题严重。二卷失分较严重。 附分数表 班级>100 90-100 80-90 70-80 平均分 三班7 9 9 13 786

高二英语期中考试试卷分析 一、试卷总体情况分析 本次期中考试试卷主要考查英语模块3所学内容，试卷总分150分。试题内容丰富，知识覆盖面广，题型较多，包括听力、完形填空、阅读理解、语法填空、短文改错和作文，和高考题型保持一致。考点知识既源于教材，又聚焦高考，全面考查了学生读、写等方面的能力。试卷以新课程理念为指导，既关注高考，又强调知识与能力并重。总体而言，试卷难度稍微偏大了点，下面以我校英语考试为抽样分析样本，对本次试卷做一个简要的分析。 二、学生各项题型得分情况及主要失分点分析 （一）试卷各大题得分情况统计（如下表）： 从表中的数据看，阅读得分相对好一点，但也不是很理想，所以我们平时要重视基础知识；而完形填空、阅读理解这两项综合运用题的得分不高，高一学生语篇语境理解的能力较弱，综合运用能力差在
意料之中，虽然客观上这两项的难度的确大了些，但我们在教学中仍不可忽视这一点，即要在立足课本的同时，应重视学生的课外阅读。短文改错和作文得分一般，这提醒老师在教学中仍要加强课外阅读指导和训练，加强作文和短文改错的训练。 （二）各大题主要失分点及其原因分析： 第一部分：听力 听力既与学生所学教材紧密联系，又聚焦高考，与高考题型保持一致。听力语速较慢难度不大，但得分率不算高。本项失分较多的题目分别为：第3、5、6题，其中3、6题得分率最低。 第二部分：阅读 本次阅读理解包括四篇短文，一篇七选五，体裁涉及议论文和记叙文，所选文章具有一定的思想性和可读性，事实细节题、推理判断题和主旨大意题等各种题型均有涉及，注重考查学生的阅读理解能力。其中16、23、26题得分率比较低。 第三部分：完型填空 完形填空主要考查学生在阅读理解的基础上对语篇、语法和词汇知识的掌握情况，要求学生能够综合运用所学的词汇、语法等知识选出最佳选项，是综合性能力比较强的题型，也是学生难得高分的题型。本篇完形填空选用的夹叙夹议文体，选材精当，内容感人，问题设置非常巧妙。主要考查了三种能力：阅读理解能力；利用上下文线索进行分析和推理的能力；学生语言基础知识的运用能力。总的来说，材料偏难，达不到锻炼的效果。难题占了一半以上，其中41、42、47、50最难。 第四部分：语法填空与短文改错 这两道题考场学生的综合能力，难度较大，也是高考的难点与易错点。得分率非常的低。学生对一些语法点和语言点掌握的不牢固，需要不断加强训练，总结答题技巧。 第五部分：写作和书面表达 本次作文不是很好写，尤其对于刚上高中的学生来说更是很难，甚至出现了很多0分现象。在评卷的过程中我们还发现下面所存在的
高二英语期中考试题 一、阅读理解（共5大题；每小题2分，共40分） A On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the New York railway station, playing his violin. The music was so great that many people stopped to put some money into the hat of the young man. The next day, the young artist came to the same place, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different from the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it under his hat. Then he began to play the violin. It sounded more pleasant than ever. Soon he was surrounded with people who were attracted by the words on that paper. It said, "Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim（认领）it soon." After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the violinist and said, "Yes, it's you. I knew that you were an honest man and would certainly come here." The young violinist asked calmly, "Are you Mr. George Sang?" The man nodded. The violinist asked, "Did you lose something?" "It's a lottery ticket （彩票）," said the man. The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang's name was seen. "Is it?" he asked. George nodded and took the lottery ticket and kissed it, then danced with the violinist. The violinist was a student at an arts college and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. Later his classmate asked the violinist, "At that time you needed money to pay the tuition （学费）and you had to play the violin in the railway station every day to make money. Why didn't you keep the lottery ticket for yourself?" The violinist said, "Although I don't have much money, I live happily. But if I lose honesty I won't be happy forever." Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. 1.What did the young artist do at the railway station on Friday? A. He walked around the New York railway station. B. He waited for the train to Vienna. C. He came to buy a train ticket to Vienna. D. He played the violin to make some money. 2.Which of the following statements is true according to the words on the paper? A. The hat belonged to George Sang.
浙江绍兴一中2016-2017学年高二上期中考试英语试卷（解析版） 一、阅读理解 1、阅读理解 According to body language expert Robert Phipps, the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have. Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality. Phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal (胎儿的) position. He found that this is the most common bedtime position, with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. The more we curl up (蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to Phipps. The second most common position is the log. Sleeping with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace, indicates stubbornness, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep. “The longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,” according to Phipps. Yearner (向往) sleepers are next on the list. About 25 percent of people sleep in this style—on their side with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves. Yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting the best results, explained Phipps. These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead. Perhaps the most peculiar (奇怪的) of sleep styles is the freefaller position. This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population. They sleep face down with arms stretched out. These people, according to Phipps, feel like they have little control over their life. Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, but also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy. Inconclusion, Phipps has only one more thing to add: “A good night's sleep set you up for the following day and our sleeping positions can determine how we feel when we wake.” 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案，并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。 (1)Which sleeping position indicates that the sleeper tends to seek perfection? A、The fetal position. B、The log position. C、The yearner position. D、The freefaller position. (2)Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A、A good night's sleep sets you up for the following day B、Your personality depends a lot on how you sleep at night C、How you sleep at night affects what you do the next day D、Which sleeping position helps you sleep comfortably 2、阅读理解 Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night.
