Hardy This is the best book I know about the sheer beauty of mathematics. Here’s one lovely quote from the book: “A mathematician, like a painter or a poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas.” — David Brenner (TED Talk: A new weapon in the fight against superbugs) The Future by Nick Montfort This is a short read but a great look at some key future thinkers throughout history. Through delightfully written case studies, Montfort makes the argument that the future can be made and not predicted. It’s a must-read for anyone interested in future studies and the role that sci-fi, speculative design and big ideas play in shaping our future relationship with technology. — Raphael Arar (TED Talk: How we can teach computers to make sense of our emotions) Improv Wisdom: Don’t Prepare, Just Show Up by Patricia Ryan Madson “We all could use a lesson on how to have fun in business and in life. Madson does a wonderful job providing strategies on how to deal with life’s many challenging situations by drawing from the maxims of improvisational theater.” — Lisa Dyson (TED Talk: A forgotten Space Age technology could change how we grow food) If You Want to Write: A Book About Art, Independence and Spirit by Brenda Ueland For those who know they have something to express, these stressful times can feel a bit hopeless — it may seem impossible to find the time, skill and energy to create. This is one of the most timeless books on how to regain that hope, and it’s also a delightful read, in and of itself. — Sebastian Wernicke (TED Talk: How to use data to make a hit TV show) 21. What is the topic of the talk given by Raphael Arar? A. A new weapon in the fight against superbugs. B. How we can teach computers to make sense of our emotions. C. A forgotten Space Age technology could change how we grow food. D. How to use data to make a hit TV show. 22. Who are advised to read Improv Wisdom: Don’t Prepare, Just Show Up? A. Those interested in mathematics. B. Those interested in future studies. C. Those faced with life’s difficulties. D. Those eager to create books. 23. Which book does Sebastian Wernicke recommend? A. A Mathematician’s Apology. B. The Future. C. Improv Wisdom: Don’t Prepare, Just Show Up. D. If You Want to Write: A Book About Art, Independence and Spirit. B One spring morning many years ago, I had been searching for gold on southeastern Alaska’s Kupreanof Island, and as I came out of a forest, I froze in my tracks. No more than 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan timber wolf—caught in one of Trapper George’s traps. Old George had died of a heart attack, so the wolf was lucky I had happened along. Confused and frightened at my approach, the wolf backed away, straining at the trap chain. Then I noticed something else: It was a female, and her teats (乳头) were full of milk. Somewhere there were some hungry pups (狼崽子) waiting for their mother. From her appearance, I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days. That meant her pups were probably still alive, surely no more than a few miles away. But I suspected that if I tried to release the wolf, she would turn aggressive and try to tear me to pieces. So I decided to search for her pups instead. After several moments, I spotted paw marks on a trail. I finally spotted the den (狼窝). Wolf pups are shy and cautious, and I didn’t have much hope of luring them outside. But I had to try. So I began imitating the high-pitched squeak of a mother wolf calling her young. No response. A few moments later, after I tried another call, four tiny pups appeared. They couldn’t have been more than a few weeks old. I extended my hands, and they tentatively suckled at my fingers. Perhaps hunger had helped overcome their natural fear. Then, I took them to their mother. Possibly picking up the smell of her young, the mother wolf let out a high-pitched, sad call. The pups raced to her. Within seconds, they were drinking milk at her belly. The mother wolf was clearly suffering, very weak. I had to find her something to eat. Yet each time I moved in her direction, a growl (怒吼) rumbled in her throat. With her young to protect, she was becoming very cautious. If I could only win her confidence, I thought, it was her only hope. 24. How did the author feel when he saw a huge wolf? A. Scared B. Cold. C. Surprised D. Confused. 25. What happened to the mother wolf? A. Its heart was attacked. B. It was trapped by the chain. C. It was giving birth to pups. D. It was giving milk to its pups. 26. What did the author do? A. Tried to release the mother wolf. B. Fought against the mother wolf. C. Managed to find the wolf babies. D. Tried to comfort the mother wolf. 27.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The mother wolf finally died of injuries. B. The mother wolf starved to death. C. The author had to leave behind the wolves. D. The author won the mother wolf’s confidence. C You’ve likely noticed them by now. School buses are back on the street packed with students. Many of those kids step off the buses with a potential health danger over their shoulder — a backpack filled with homework. Backpacks come in all shapes, sizes and colors. It is a fun way for any girl or boy to express their styles. Some are simple, some covered with cartoon characters, many equipped with special compartments for every tool a student needs, like pencils, notebooks and books. Yes, they are practical, but a heavy backpack can injure muscles and joints. Wearing a backpack incorrectly can lead to severe back, neck and shoulder pain, as well as posture problems. When a backpack filled with books is placed on a boy or girl’s shoulders incorrectly, the force of the weight can pull the child backward, so the child may bend their hips forward or arch their back. Pay attention to detail when selecting a backpack; choose one that is equipped with a comfortable back, waist and wide shoulder straps. Narrow straps can dig into a child’s shoulders and affect circulation and nerves. The heavy load danger is not just for kids 12 and under. Middle and high school are at risk, too. They are carrying heavier books home daily. Luckily, back pain created by backpacks is preventable. Parents should talk to their kids about lightening the load. You can even use a bathroom scale. The backpack should not weigh more than 10 percent to 15 percent of your child’s weight. If your child weighs 80 pounds, the pack should not weigh more than 8 to 12 pounds. If your child weighs 140 pounds, the pack should not be heavier than 21 pounds. Most importantly, if your child talks about numbness or weakness in the arms or legs, contact a physician. 28. What do students’ backpacks reflect according to paragraph 2? A. Their hobbies. B. Their styles. C. Their characters. D. Their needs. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Students’ heavy loads. B. Wearing backpacks incorrectly. C. Dangers of heavy backpacks. D. Weight of heavy backpacks. 30. Which backpack is more suitable for a child weighing 100 pounds? A. With wide shoulder straps weighing about 10 pounds. B. With narrow shoulder straps weighing 16 pounds. C. With wide shoulder straps weighing 20 pounds. D. With narrow shoulder straps weighing 15 pounds. 31. Who are the intended readers of the text? A. Children. B. Doctors. C. Teachers. D. Parents. D A city in South Korea, which has the world’s largest number of people using smartphones, has placed flashing lights and laser beams at a road crossing to warn “smartphone zombies” to look up and drivers to slow down, in the hope of preventing accidents. The designers of the system were motivated by growing worry that more pedestrians glued to their phones will become victims in a country that already has some of the highest road death and injury rates among developed countries. State-run Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) believes its system of flashing lights at zebra crossings can warn both pedestrians and drivers. In addition to red, yellow and blue LED lights on the pavement, “smombies” - smartphone zombies - will be warned by laser beam projected from power poles and a warning sent to the phones by an app that they are about to step into traffic. “Increasing number of smombie accidents have occurred in pedestrian crossings, so these zombie lights are essential to prevent these pedestrian accidents,” said KICT senior researcher Kim Jong-hoon. Drivers are warned by the flashing lights, which have shown to be effective 83.4 percent of the time in the institute’s tests involving about 1,000 vehicles. In 2017, more than 1,600 pedestrians were killed in auto related accidents, which is about 40 percent of total traffic deaths, according to data from the Traffic Accident Analysis System. For now, the smombie warning system is placed only in Ilsan, a suburban city about 30 km northwest of the capital, Seoul, but is expected to go nationwide, according to the institute. Kim Dan-hee, a 23-year-old resident of Ilsan, welcomed the system, saying she was often too absorbed in her phone to remember to look at traffic. “This flashing light makes me feel safe as it makes me look around again, and I hope that we can have more of these in town,” she said. 32. What do the underlined words “smartphone zombies” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. Drivers driving after drunk. B. Pedestrians buried in their phones. C. Passengers crazy about phones. D. Policemen in charge of traffic. 33. What do we know about the warning system? A. It has reduced death rate by 83.4%. B. It has been spread nationwide. C. It gives a warning to the smartphones. D. It is being tried out in many places. 34. What was the residents’ attitude to the traffic system? A. Negative. B. Unconcerned. C. Disapproving. D. Favorable. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. South Korea Warns Smartphone Zombies of Traffic B. Flashing Lights Are Used to Prevent Accidents C. Smartphone Zombies Are Causing Traffic Accidents D. South Korea Uses a New Traffic System 第二节:根据文章内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项;选项中的两项为多余选项。(每小题2分,共计10分) Everyday Habits That Could and Should Change Forever After Coronavirus Handshakes will be out. In this new era of the coronavirus and the practice of social distancing, there will undoubtedly be a cultural shift in the way we all greet one another. 36 Instead, social greetings may be a head nod, or any action that enables one to avoid direct touch or contact. 37 We are already seeing a dramatic shift in how consumers are eating at restaurants. The restaurants that require their guests to dine in are seeing the largest decline in sales. Delivery and takeout options might be expanded. More clear information might be posted in the restaurant showing they are clean. More companies will permit employees to work remotely. More companies will permit employees to work at home. Businesses and their employees see that working from home is not only doable but that it might even be more productive. 38 We'll find another way to press buttons. Directly touching the keypads with your fingers will be an action of the past. Most of us are aware that everyday locations are full of germs. 39 People might start pushing those elevator buttons with their elbow or even an object like a pen instead of their fingers. People will take their personal space more seriously. One of the most visible policies in the age of the coronavirus is the idea of "social distancing”. 40 People will start paying more attention to whom they let approach them in their personal space and the socially acceptable personal distance will change in most cultures. A. It may be the end of shared foods. B. Our relationships with restaurants may change. C. Surfaces are ideal places for spreading the disease. D. Shaking hands, hugs, and kisses are to be abandoned. E. This involves staying at least six feet away from other people. F. That could cause a big shift in office cultures across the globe. G. These places include buttons on ATMs and buttons in an elevator. 第三部分:英语知识应用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从21~40各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Do you remember the last time you expressed how much you love your mother?

Rich people paid famous artists to paint pictures of them, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discovery during this period was how to draw things with perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the rules of perspective have not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such the realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, that made the colours used in paintings look rich and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we will not be able to see the great masterpieces for which this period is famous. 第二节:书面表达 (满分25分) 假如你是李华,由于新冠状病毒严重蔓延,你的美国笔友Sam也不得不在家上网课,他来信说感到焦虑,非常想念自由的学校生活。请你给他回复邮件,邮件内容包括:在这特殊时期如何克服焦虑并保持身心健康,至少3条建议。 注意:1. 词数100左右; 2. 可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 参考词汇:自我隔离:self-isolation; 网络课程:online classes; Dear Sam, Yours Li Hua 银川一中2019/2020学年度(下)高二期中考试英语答案 一、听力(20分,每题1分) 1-5 CACCC 6-10 AAABC 11-15 CBACB 16-20 CBBCA 二、阅读理解(40分,每题2分) 21-23 BCD 24-27 ABCD 28-31 BCAD 32-35BCDA 36-40 DBFGE 三、完型填空(30分,每题1.5分) 41-45 BCADD 46-50 CBDCB 51-55 CACBA 56-60 DBADA 四、语法填空(15分,每小题1.5分) 61.will 62.as 63.until 64. experienced 65. professional 66. to acquire 67.carefully 68. depending 69.interviewed/being interviewed 70. can 五、单词拼写(10分,每小题1分) 71. surroundings 72. squeezing 73. preference 74. flexible 75. constantly 76. had run out of 77. appeal to 78. were accused of 79. put their hands on 80. slid into 六、短文改错 (共10分) During the Renaissance, painters tried to paint people and nature as they real (①改really) were.

You will keep informed of what is happening around you by keeping in touch with your friends, classmates and teachers so that you will not feel lonely. Besides, develop one or two hobbies that you can work on at home, such as cooking, gardening, reading or calligraphy. When you are occupied with a full schedule, you will feel fulfilled. We know, to be happy, keep busy. In addition, do exercise regularly and plan your daily schedule wisely. When you are tired from attending online classes, you can do all kinds of indoor exercise that you like. As we know, health is wealth. I hope you will find my suggestions helpful. I believe we will be able to defeat the new coronavirus. Yours, Li Hua查看更多
