We 37 on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is 38 by a professionally built rock wall. We did the best to put what we had into 39 and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had flowers or plants, my wife Denise or I would stick them out and plant them in the “rock garden”, just to bring some 40 to the area.‎ I still do all of my own yard work, even the 41 weed-pulling. After 42 my knee pads, I assume the 43 to clear the yard of weeds, even in the rock garden.‎ Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little 44 that I could not 45 identify.

The sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and 53 under and around it to reach the sun.‎ That’s when I realized that if a tiny little sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the 54 of doing the same thing.

In the first episode, the Palace Museum in Beijing shows three treasures: a stone drum, painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains by Wang Ximeng and Large Vase with Variegated Glazes. Famous actors Wang Kai, Li Chen and Tony Leung played roles of national treasure keepers, along with other actors, and described the treasures’ legendary life journey and shared their stories with these treasures. During the TV show, the nine major museums in China — the Palace Museum, Shanghai Museum, Nanjing Museum, Hunan Provincial Museum, Henan Museum, Shaanxi History Museum, Hubei Provincial Museum, Zhejiang Provincial Museum and Liaoning Provincial Museum — will each present three national treasures across its episodes.‎ As a cultural variety show, National Treasure is dedicated to showing the background stories of national treasures, and fuses (融合) various art forms including studio variety show, documentary and drama. Each treasure in the show will be presented by “national treasure keepers” acted by celebrities (名人) and common people to tell their stories with the collections, interpreting their historical mystery.‎ Hong Kong actor Tony Leung, who called himself a “half Forbidden City man”, spent much time in the Palace Museum when shooting the film Reign Behind a Curtain in which he played Emperor Xianfeng. This time, he is the keeper of the 2,300-year-old stone drum and acts as famous statesman Sima Guang in Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) in the TV show. Wang Kai, performing as Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) Emperor Qianlong in the show, presented the historical background of Large Vase with Variegated Glazes, which has the most complicated craftsmanship in the history of Chinese imperial china.‎ Li Chen, acting as Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), tells the history of Wang Ximeng’s precious painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains.‎ ‎56. If you are interested in china, which treasure will you pay special attention to?‎ A. A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains. B. A stone drum in Beijing Palace Museum. ‎ C. A treasure in Hubei Provincial Museum. D. Large Vase with Variegated Glazes.‎ ‎57. According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?‎ A. The three national treasures are from the same dynasty in China.‎ B. The national treasure keepers will be acted by celebrities. ‎ C. The background stories of the treasures are shown by the program. ‎ D. Wangkai, a famous actor, shot the film Reign Behind a Curtain.‎ B The German government isn’t just banning some children’s smartwatches — it’s telling people to “destroy” the gadgets (小玩意) already popular around the country. ‎ On Friday, Germany’s telecom regulator the Federal Network Agency announced that a number of these devices, designed for ages 5 to 12, can allow someone to remotely tap into the watch’s microphone and spy from remote locations. The regulator isn’t just concerned about the potential of people spying on children — it’s concerned that the devices can be used to spy on anyone.‎ And in Germany, it’s illegal to record private conversations without permission. “According to our investigations, parents were using the watches, for example, to listen in on teachers during class.” said Federal Network Agency President Jochen Homann in a statement.‎ Smartwatches that make phone calls, like the Apple Watch, are legal in Germany. The problem with many of the children’s smartwatches, however, is that the devices have a classic snooping (监听) function, similar to a baby monitor, which can be easily activated just by using an app.‎ ‎“Via an app, parents can use such children’s watches to listen unnoticed to the child’s environment and as such, they are to be regarded as an unauthorized transmitting system,” said Homann.‎ The German regulator is so serious about destroying these devices; it’s asking citizens to record the watches’ destruction and to file evidence online. Once the watches are destroyed, the regulator will provide a “certificate of destruction”, confirming the deed was done.‎ This isn’t the first time the Federal Network Agency told German citizens to destroy a consumer device. In February, the regulator prohibited the doll “My Friend Cayla” and treated it as an “spy device.” Apparently, the dolls were fitted with radio transmission technology that could allow children to be spied on.‎ Beware consumer tech producers: The German government won’t just ban devices that make spying possible; they’ll demand the devices be destroyed with hammer (or whatever means of destruction one prefers) — even if they’re dolls.‎ ‎58. We can know from the passage that ________.‎ ‎ A. smartwatches can be used to spy on anyone except children ‎ B. it is legal for parents to listen in on teachers via smartwatches ‎ C. people needn’t worry about the snooping function of smartwatches ‎ D. the destruction of smartwatches can be confirmed by a certificate ‎ ‎59. By mentioning the doll “My Friend Cayla”, the author aims to show ________. ‎ ‎ A. the popularity of radio transmission technology ‎ B. the determination of the German government ‎ C. different forms of spy devices in Germany ‎ ‎ D. German citizens’ trust in their government ‎60. Where can you probably find the passage?‎ ‎ A. In a news report. B. In a tourist brochure. ‎ ‎ C. In a research paper. D. In a technology magazine.‎ C How would today’s weather patterns look in a warmer and wetter atmosphere? Colorado State University researcher Kristen Rasmussen offers new thoughts into this question — specifically, how thunderstorms would be different in a warmer world.‎ The assistant professor of atmospheric science works at the field of weather and climate. She is the lead author on a new paper in Climate Dynamics that details high-resolution(高清) climate simulations(模拟) across the continental United States. Her results suggest that extreme thunderstorms will increase in frequency under a warmer climate situation. This change would be caused by fundamental changes in heat conditions of the atmosphere.‎ For the study, Rasmussen employed a powerful new dataset developed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. The scientists collected the new dataset by running NCAR’s Weather Research and Forecasting model at an extremely high resolution of about 4 kilometers (about 2.5 miles), across the entire U.S.‎ Using the dataset and cooperating with NCAR researchers, Rasmussen led analysis of detailed climate simulations. The first control simulation included weather patterns from 2000-2013. The second simulation overlaid that same weather data by using a special technique which sets a 2 to 3 degree increase in average temperature, and a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide.‎ ‎“When we compared the convective(对流的)populations in two simulations, we found that with the average temperature rising, weak to moderate storms decrease in frequency, whereas thunderstorms increase in frequency,” Rasmussen said. “This is an indication of a shift in the convective population, and it gives us a picture of how changes in climate may affect the occurrence of thunderstorms.”‎ However, some climate experts say Rasmussen’s study accounted for the spreading of organized storms, and also included correct daily rainfall cycles across the U.S., neither of which are accurately represented in current climate models. ‎ Therefore, NCAR plans more climate simulations that include even finer-scale details of weather processes. Rasmussen hopes to conduct follow-up studies that account for shifts in the storm track, which was not reflected in her most recent study.‎ ‎61. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. The new dataset is collected across the whole world.‎ ‎ B. Two simulations use completely different weather data.‎ ‎ C. Rasmussen is the lead researcher in studying the thunderstorms.‎ ‎ D. Thunderstorms frequently occur as the climate becomes warmer.‎ ‎62. According to the context, the underlined word “overlaid” (Para 4) means “ ”.‎ A. transformed B. modified C. covered D. inserted ‎63. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?‎ ‎ A. Rasmussen is blamed by some climate experts due to her study. ‎ B. Current climate models are accurate enough for Rasmussen’s study.‎ C. Finer-scale details of weather processes have been stimulated.‎ D. There is still a long way for Rasmussen to analyze the storms.‎ ‎64. What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ ‎ A. New thoughts on weather patterns are raised by a researcher.‎ ‎ B. Carbon dioxide has an influence on the changes in storms.‎ ‎ C. Simulations play an important role in studying weather processes.‎ ‎ D. Follow-up studies will be conducted to study storm tracks.‎ D Adults often find surprising subtexts (潜台词) in children’s literature – but are they really there? Hephzibah Anderson looks into the world of Freud and fairy tales. ‎ As a child, many of my favorite books had food as a theme. One in particular told the story of a boy who helped save his local burger shop by becoming a detective to track down a lost secret ingredient.‎ Long after losing track of the book and forgetting its title, I found myself in Edinburgh to interview Alexander McCall Smith. He was already the best-selling author of The No 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series — adult books, but years earlier, he had published a few children’s books. There among them on a shelf was The Perfect Hamburger. I know it was my book. But except that it wasn’t – not really. ‎ Revisiting kids’ books in adulthood can have all kinds of strange and wonderful subtexts. How could Dr Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas be something about consumerism(消费主义)? Why would it not seem blindingly clear that CS Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia are in fact a fantastical re-imagining of Christian theology?‎ Similar close readings are the Paddington Bear books about immigration(移民)and Babar the Elephant on French colonialism. Alice’s Wonderland Adventures have been seen as everything from a paean(赞美歌) to mathematical logic to a satire(讽刺) about the War of the Roses.‎ And what about The Little Engine That Could? You might know it as a story about trains that promotes can-do optimism, but it has also been taken as a you-go-girl feminist(女权主义的)tale. (The little engine is a lady train and when she breaks down, only another female train will stop to help out.) As for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz: it’s a vivid description of the debate surrounding late 19th Century US monetary policy, of course.‎ Dr Alison expresses her opinions about what Hephzibah Anderson has done and thinks more about this topic.‎ ‎“Maybe it’s easy to be made fun of due to these strange explanations from adults’ angles. I do think adults can dig some deep meanings in Children’s books,” says Dr Alison Waller, Senior Lecturer at the University of Roehampton’s National Centre of Research for Children’s Literature. Her favorite class involves applying psychoanalytical theory to Judith Kerr’s The Tiger Who Came to Tea, resulting in some decidedly Oedipal interpretations of that big cat and his relationship to the family.‎ ‎“This is a very simple story, but simplicity is not the same as a lack of depth. There are some delicate picture books that handle sensitive issues like death and sadness: Michael Rosen’s Sad Book and The Red Tree by Shaun Tan are great examples.”‎ Just because we might not be aware of such adult messages when we read books as kids, it doesn’t mean we aren’t absorbing them, she adds. “This kind of ‘messages’ seems not to leap out at the adult reader immediately, but the messages have always been there until the knowledge that allows it to be recognized.”‎ Of course, sometimes meanings seem hidden because we’re too caught up in the story, or because we’re simply too young. Only as an adult does Waller recognize the motivation of Max’s mother in sending him to bed without supper when she reads Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are again.‎ ‎65. According to the passage, ________ is NOT a Children’s book.‎ ‎ A. The Little Engine That Could B. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz ‎ C. Where the Wild Things Are D. The No.1 Ladies’ Detective Agency ‎66. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ ‎ A. The book is not my favorite now. B. I see other meanings in the book.‎ ‎ C. It was not I that wrote the book. D. The author is not what he was.‎ ‎67. The Chronicles of Narnia features in ________.‎ ‎ A. Christian theory B. monetary policy C. feminism D. sadness ‎68. What can we learn from the passage?‎ ‎ A. Simplicity makes Children’s books lack deep meanings.‎ ‎ B. Babar the Elephant describes more about immigration.‎ ‎ C. Hidden meanings can be recognized by related knowledge. ‎ ‎ D. Subtexts of fairy tales can only be absorbed in adulthood.‎ ‎69. What attitude does Dr Alison Waller hold towards finding subtexts in Children’s books?‎ ‎ A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Opposed. D. Favorable.‎ ‎70. What can be the best title of this passage?‎ ‎ A. Importance of the theory of Freud B. Adults’ understanding of literature ‎ ‎ C. Subtexts in children’s literature D. Best-selling fairy tales books ‎ 第四部分: 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，共10分）‎ 请阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。‎ We consume more resources by a large amount, produce more waste, and cause more environmental problems than ever before. Fortunately, there are many ways that you can help give a response to the negative effects that we destroy the environment. One of these is driving an electric car. ‎ Electric cars benefit not only the environment, but also individual drivers. Electric cars produce about 80 percent less pollution than cars with gas-powered motors. In fact, the only reason that electric cars produce any pollution is that their electric energy is generated by power plants — electric cars themselves send out no exhaust. When energy comes from large sources such as power plants, it’s easier to control and monitor, so there’s less waste than if the energy is ‎ generated by many smaller sources, such as the gas engines in individual cars. ‎ In addition, electric cars are just more efficient than gas-powered cars for several reasons. First, electric cars have regenerative braking, which means that when you use the brakes in an electric car, the battery has a chance to recharge. However, when you brake in a gas-powered car, you actually use energy. Also, during the production of electric cars, more time and energy is spent making the design lighter so that there will be less drag from the wind. This allows them to travel farther using less energy than a gas-powered car would use to go the same distance. ‎ Besides, there are also financial and timesaving benefits for the electric car drivers. For one, the cost of charging an electric car is about 20 percent of the cost of gas, and electric cars require far less maintenance than gas-powered cars. There are fewer moving parts, so there are fewer potential problems. Also, electric motors have far greater longevity than motors burning gas, so after the body of an electric car gives out, the engine can be reused in another body. Furthermore, the government is encouraging electric car use by giving significant refunds for purchasing electric cars.‎ Electric cars can also save people time. While gas-powered cars require visits to a mechanic every few months, the only routine maintenance required by electric cars is replacing the battery every four years. And California recently passed a law making it legal for drivers of electric cars to use the carpool (拼车) lanes any time — even if they are driving alone. This makes your trips much quicker and saves a considerable amount of time, especially in rush-hour traffic. ‎ Overall, there are numerous benefits of driving an electric car. It may take a little getting used to, but in the long run, the use of electric cars can help preserve the environment and give people more time and money to be put to better use. ‎ Electric cars are coming into our lives Introduction ‎● We consume a large amount of resources, (71)   ▲    to more and more ‎ environmental problems and waste. ‎ ‎● We can (72)    ▲    to the problem in a positive way by driving an electric car, which is very helpful to the environment. ‎ ‎(73)    ▲ ‎ of electric cars ‎● (74)    ▲    with traditional gas-powered motors, electric cars produce much less pollution.‎ ‎● Different from gas-powered cars, electric cars get (75)    ▲    when the driver brakes.‎ ‎● (76)    ▲    to its lighter weight, electric cars can cover a longer distance with the same amount of energy.‎ ‎● The driver will spend much less money to (77)    ▲    an electric car than a gas-powered one.‎ ‎● (78)    ▲     traditional engine, an electric car engine has a greater longevity than its body. ‎ ‎● In addition, electric cars are (79)    ▲    .‎ Conclusion Although it may be some time before we are used to them, electric cars will (80)    ▲    good in the long term.‎ 第五部分: 书面表达 (满分 25 分)‎ ‎81.请阅读下面的文字和图画，并按要求用英语写一篇150字左右的文章。‎ Around the world, millions of children are deprived (剥夺) of fair chances to have access to health, education and protection.

It is predicted that more children will suffer extreme poverty, die and drop out of school in 2030.‎ Many factors contribute to the severe problems. Some children live in poor families and their parents can’t meet their basic needs. Additionally, our society is lacking in attention paid to the problems, leaving more children suffering. Besides, few organizations work on such problems and the children fail to have access to any aids when they’re in trouble.‎ It’s high time that we worked together to help them. To begin with, the poor families should be helped to provide their children with better living conditions. What’s more, we should raise the awareness of the whole society to help and protect children. At the same time, many worthy organizations at home and abroad, like UNICEF, can play a more important role in helping them.‎ 高二期末考试英语听力录音原文 Text 1:‎ M: I guess Tom is not at home.

I’m the only one left in the house without anything to do. I’m bored to death.‎ Text 7:‎ M: So, what do you want to do tomorrow?‎ W: Well, let’s look at this city guide here. Uh, here’s something interesting. (8) Why don’t we visit the art museum in the ‎ morning?‎ M: Ok. I like this idea. And where do you want to eat lunch?‎ W: How about going to an Indian restaurant? The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.‎ M: That’s sounds great. (9) After that, what do you think about visiting the zoo? I’ve heard that it has some unique animals not found anywhere else.‎ W: Well, to tell the truth, I’m not really interested in going there. Why don’t we go shopping instead?‎ M: OK.‎ Text 8:‎ M: (10) Hello. I’m Mr. Smith. This is my wife. We moved into this neighborhood last week.‎ W: Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Come in, please…Have a seat. Would you like some coffee?‎ M: No, thanks. We’ll just stay for a minute.‎ W: Well, what can I do for you then?‎ M: (12) We’re having a party this Friday evening at our place, and we’d like you and your family to join us.‎ W: (11) Oh, I’d like to, but I’m not sure about my husband’s schedule. He always works over time.‎ M: The party will begin at 5:30 p.m. and will probably last three or four hours.‎ W: Why don’t you give me your telephone number? I’ll call you tomorrow and let you know.‎ M: Please do. This is our phone number and address. We live just across the street.‎ W: Do you need any help preparing for the party, Mr. Smith? I’m free every afternoon.‎ M: That’s very nice of you, but won’t it be too troublesome for you?‎ W: No, no trouble at all. What time is good?‎ M: How about 4:00 p.m.?‎ W: I’ll be there.‎ Text 9:‎ W: (13) What’s your plan for the coming summer vacation? Do you want to go back to Australia?‎ M: No. I’ll stay in New York and find a part-time job here.‎ W: What kind of part-time job do you want to do?‎ M: I don’t like washing dishes in a restaurant. (14) So I guess I’ll tutor a junior middle school student.‎ W: What subject do you want to teach?‎ M: Mathematics or Chemistry.‎ W: (15) My little cousin Jimmy is bad at Math. My aunt wants to find him a tutor.‎ M: That’s great. Could you introduce me to your aunt?‎ W: Sure. So what else do you want to do during the summer vacation?‎ M: I’ll read some books. So what’s your plan?‎ W: (16) I have decided to go to Paris with my parents.‎ M: That’s great! I have always wanted to go to Paris.‎ W: What a pity you can’t go with us this time. How about next year? We go to Paris for our summer almost every year.‎ M: It’s a deal.‎ Text 10:‎ ‎ Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Attention please.
