高二英语试题 第一部分：听力理解（略）‎ 第二部分：阅读（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）‎ 第一节，阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，共30分）‎ A Every morning Grandpa got up early sitting at the table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could. ‎ One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?” The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”‎ ‎ The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked(漏) out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.‎ This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead.‎ The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”‎ ‎ The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless !”“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”‎ ‎ The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean. ‎ ‎“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”‎ ‎21.

Baskets and books B Four Simple Keys to Transform（改变） Your Life The Power of Choice．Every one of us makes countless choices every day．Every choice we make has an effect on our lives．Even insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feel．When hunger strikes, we can reach for a healthy, nutritious snack, or we can choose the sugar high of junk food．The more important the decision, the greater its effect．For instance, how do I act towards that person who treated me badly? Do I generally choose to be passive, or do I actively set clear intentions(意图） and create what I want in my life? Every choice we make, however big or small, affects us in some way．‎ How Do You Make Choices? If you are interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only for you, but also for those around you．This foundation is to choose based on what's best for all．Imagine a world where every parent, spouse（配偶）, friend, teacher, businessperson, and politician truly did their best to choose what's best for all involved in every decision they made We would certainly live in a more caring, supportive world．‎ It's the Intention．"But how do I know what is really best?" you might ask．The answer is ‎ simple．It doesn't matter．What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choice．What matters is that whatever decision you make, you are clear in your intention of choosing based on what's best for all．If it later turns out that you made what appears to have been a bad choice, there's no need for guilt．Knowing that you did your best to choose with a sincere desire for what's best for all, your conscience stays clear and open．This then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes, and to live with a clear heart and mind．‎ What's Best for Me, Too! Choosing what's best does not mean you have to always sacrifice yourself for others．An over-exhausted mother can lose her temper（脾气） easily．Some time off for this mother might seem selfish, yet in the long run, it can help her to be a better mother to her children．So as we move through each day of our lives, let us remember to include ourselves as we do our best to choose what's best for all．‎ ‎25．Which of the following is FALSE?‎ ‎ A．Whenever hunger strikes, we will reach for a junk snack ‎ ‎ B．Every choice, however big or small, has an influence on us．‎ ‎ C．Even small choices affect how we feel．．‎ ‎ D．We make choices every day．‎ ‎26．How should we make choices?‎ ‎ A．To be interested in a richer, fuller life． ‎ B．To make life better for ourselves．‎ ‎ C．To imagine a world where everyone did their best．‎ ‎ D．To choose based on what's best for all． ‎ ‎27．Why does the author say, "What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choice"?‎ ‎ A．Because the choice you make is not important．‎ ‎ B．Because you may have made a bad choice．‎ ‎ C．Because this allows you to stay clear and improve． ‎ ‎ D. Because there is no need for guilt．‎ ‎28．How to choose what is best for us?‎ ‎ A．We need to devote all our life to others． ‎ ‎ B．We need to put away some time for ourselves． ‎ ‎ C．We need to sacrifice ourselves for others．‎ ‎ D．We need to be selfless every minute．‎ C Windbreaks are barriers（屏障）formed by trees and other plants．Farmers plant these barriers around their fields，which help prevent the loss of soil，and stop the wind from blowing soil away．They also keep the wind from damaging or destroying crops．Besides，extra trees and plants can be cut down and used or sold for wood．‎ Windbreaks can be highly valuable for protecting grain crops．For example，in parts of West Africa grain harvests were as much as twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks compared with fields without them．‎ But here is something interesting about windbreaks．They seem to work best when they allow some wind to pass through the barrier of trees or plants around a field．If not，then the movement of air close to the ground will lift the soil．Then the soil will be blown away．For this reason，a windbreak works best if it contains only 60 to 80 percent of the trees and plants that would be needed to make a solid line．An easy rule to remember is that windbreaks can protect areas up to 10 times the height of the tallest trees in the windbreak．‎ There should be at least two lines in each windbreak．One line should be large trees．The second line，right next to it，can be shorter trees or other plants with leaves．Locally grown trees and plants are considered the best choices for windbreaks．Trees reduce the damaging effects of wind and rain．Their roots help protect soil from being washed away．And trees can provide animals outdoors with shade from the sun．‎ ‎29. The advantages of building a windbreak are as follows except _____. ‎ A. providing humans with shade from the sun  ‎ B. increasing the production of grain harvests C. keeping the wind from destroying grain crops ‎ D. reducing the damaging effects of wind and rain ‎ ‎30. The author thinks windbreaks are interesting because ______. ‎ A. windbreaks can stop the wind getting through B. the movement of air lifts the soil ‎ C. large trees are lined with short ones ‎ D. windbreaks allow some wind to pass through ‎ ‎31. If the trees grow to a height of 30 feet, the areas the windbreak can protect are ______. ‎ A. 150 square feet        B.  100 square feet        C. 300 square feet       D. 240 square feet ‎32. What can be inferred from the text? ‎ A. The environment is going from bad to worse. ‎ B. Windbreaks can contribute to agriculture harvests. . ‎ C. Trees and plants from abroad are the best for windbreaks. ‎ D. Extra trees and plants can be cut down for wood D Thirteen-year-old Greg Hoffman had been begging his parents for an iPhone all year. So on Christmas morning he was thrilled to find the object of his desire under the tree, but there was a catch.‎ The phone came with an 18-point set of terms and conditions that he had to agree to before the phone could be his. And the agreement did not come from Apple or the phone provider, it was from his mother.‎ His mom, Janell Hoffman, included a contract（协议） along with the iphone that listed eighteen conditions or rules that Greg has to follow if he wants to keep it. Some of the rules limit the time he can use the phone; not after 7:30 p.m , and he can’t take it to school. He also has to promise not to send “hurtful” text messages and e-mails to people; give his passwords to his parents, and always answer the phone when his mom or dad calls. Greg also has to use his own money to replace the phone if it’s broken or lost Janell says the idea behind the contract is to teach her son to have a sense of responsibility and to learn to “co-exist with technology, not be ruled by it’. She told him not to use this technology to lie, fool, or cheat another human being.‎ Most of the terms do not just apply to the iphone, but to life. She also advised him to, “keep your eyes up. See the world happening around you,” “Stare out of a window. Listen to the birds. Take a walk. Talk to a stranger. Wonder without Googling.”‎ ‎“You are growing up in a fast and ever changing world. It is exciting and enticing. Trust your powerful mind and giant heart above any machine. I hope that you understand it is my job to raise you into a well rounded, healthy young man that can function in the world and coexist with technology, not be ruled by it,” ‎ ‎“I love you. I hope you enjoy your awesome new iPhone. Merry Christmas!”‎ ‎33. The underlined word “catch” in the first paragraph means “________”‎ A. great secret B. piece of equipment C. hidden difficulty D. piece of paper ‎ ‎34. Mom gave her son the 18-point contracts with the iphone in order to __________‎ A. keep in touch with him at any time B. teach him to have a sense of responsibility C. let him learn to use new technology D. adjust himself to the ever changing world ‎35.

Do not ever ignore a phone call if the screen reads “Mom” or “Dad”. Not ever.‎ C. I will always know the password.‎ D.

It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. 63 we persist in this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express ourselves in English.
