They prefer to stay in their own peaceful world without being disturbed and care little about passion and success.‎ Now, Chinese internet users are pairing the phrase with other words to describe a similar mindset. For ‎ example, “Buddhist students” are those who study just the right amount – they don’t cut class, but they don’t burn the midnight oil, either. There are also “Buddhist parents”, who interfere little with their children’s lives and let them develop however they like – the opposite of “helicopter parents”.‎ In this fast-changing and competitive world, it’s only natural that people are seeking a spiritual anchor.‎ However, some would compare foxi with “demotivational culture”– a phrase that describes young people who feel aimless and powerless. They say that foxi actually reflects the reality that young people are losing their will to fight. They are pretending to keep a healthy and wise attitude toward failure simply because they’re incapable of succeeding. ‎ But no matter what, there is one thing that “Buddhist youngsters” should keep in mind: You may want to keep a calm mindset regarding failure, but you should also be passionate and positive about school, work and life.‎ ‎21. Which groups was the word “Buddhist” originally created to describe in Japan?‎ A. Those young men who feel aimless and powerless.‎ B. Those young men who are incapable of succeeding.‎ C. Those young men who care little about passion and success.‎ D. Those young men who are completely cut off from the outside.‎ ‎22. What can we infer from paragraph 3?‎ ‎ A. Buddhist parents don’t care for their children at all. ‎ B. Buddhist students are always staying up late to study.‎ C. “Buddhist” refers to those who prefer to follow someone else’s path.‎ ‎ D. Helicopter parents involve themselves too much in their children’s life.‎ ‎23. Which of the following statements might the author most likely agree with?‎ ‎ A. Young people are encouraged to live like a Buddha.‎ B. One should stay calm and be optimistic in face of failure.‎ C. Young people today are actually losing their will to fight.‎ ‎ D. To study just the right amount is a wise choice for a student.‎ B China became the first country to clone a monkey using non-reproductive cells, reducing the need for lab monkeys and paving the way for more accurate, effective, and affordable animal tests for new drugs, scientists said on Thursday.‎ By December, the Institute of Neuroscience of the Chinese Academy of Sciences had created two clone monkeys named “Zhong Zhong” and “Hua Hua” by nuclear transferring of somatic(躯体的) cells – any cell in the organism other than reproductive cells. This was the similar technology used to create the famous clone sheep Dolly in 1996.‎ Tetra, a rhesus monkey born in 1999, is the world’s first ever-cloned monkey, but it was done using a simpler method called embryo splitting, and it could only produce four cloned babies at a time and cannot be genetically changed to suit experimental needs, said Pu Muming, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the director of Institute of Neuroscience, CAS.‎ ‎“Cloning a monkey using somatic cells has been a world-class challenge because it is a primate(灵长类) that shares its genetic makeup, therefore all of its complexity, with humans,” he said.‎ ‎“For drug and other lab tests, scientists have to purchase monkeys from all over the world, which is costly, bad for the environment and produces inaccurate results because each monkey might have different genes,” Pu said.‎ ‎“By cloning monkey using somatic cells, we can mass cultivate(培养) large number of genetically identical babies in a short amount of time, and we can even change their genes to suit our needs,” he added. “This can save time, cut down experiment costs, and produce more accurate results, leading to more effective medicine.”‎ Sun Qiang, director of the non-human primate research facility at the institute, said, “Monkeys and humans are both primates, so they are much closely related and testing on monkeys is supposed to be as effective as testing on humans,” he said. This is especially useful in testing drugs for neural diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, metabolic and immune system disease, and tumor, he added.‎ ‎24. What makes cloning a monkey using somatic cells a big problem?‎ ‎ A. Lack of lab monkeys. B. Complex genetic make-up.‎ ‎ C. The high expenses. D. The harm to the environment.‎ ‎25. Cloning monkeys with non-reproductive cells can bring benefits except _____________.‎ ‎ A. producing more effective medicine B. reducing experiment costs ‎ C. saving time on lab tests D. curing neural diseases easily ‎26. What can we learn from the passage?‎ ‎ A. Zhongzhong and Huahua are the world’s first ever-cloned monkeys.‎ ‎ B. Cloning a monkey using reproductive cells is a world-class challenge.‎ ‎ C. Cloning a monkey using non-reproductive cells needs more lab monkeys. ‎ D. The sheep Dolly was ever cloned by nuclear transferring of somatic cells.‎ C A new library in Tianjin – Tianjin Binhai Public Library – recently became an online hit. The Daily Mail described it as the “world’s ultimate library”, while the word “breathtaking” was the choice of Newsweek magazine. One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic design and walls loaded with books, it’s the dream library of every book lover.‎ But as the awe continues, there’s a burning question lying in the back of our minds: When physical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries immune(免除的) from the wave of digitalization? And do we really still need libraries now we’ve got the internet in our hands?‎ Reporter Ian Clark has the answer. “Libraries are not declining in importance – people are simply changing the way they use them,” he wrote on the Guardian website.‎ What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots”, according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an internet connection, and not everyone knows how to search the internet correctly and efficiently, it’s public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.‎ And one of the pitfalls that come with online materials is that they’re not always reliable. “Google doesn’t tell you what you’re not getting, so people need to evaluate the quality and completeness of what they see on their screens,” Sarah Pritchard, dean of libraries at Northwestern University, told Northwestern Research Magazine. And libraries are usually where that “evaluation” happens.‎ But all of these practical functions aside, we still need the physical space that a library provides. It’s something that’s called a “third place”, according to the Seattle Times. This is a place in which we can fully concentrate on our study and work without easily getting distracted.‎ And compared to other “third places” like coffee shops, libraries have a “non-commercial nature” that allows you to relax completely.‎ ‎“Nobody is trying to sell you anything in the library. There is no pressure to buy and there is no judgment of your choices,” Anne Goulding, a professor at Victoria University in New Zealand, wrote on the Newsroom website.‎ ‎“There are few other spaces that you can just ‘be’ without somebody questioning your presence or ‎ your motivation.”‎ ‎27. Which of the following words best describe “Tianjin Binhai Public Library”?‎ ‎ A. peaceful and sacred B. traditional but commercial ‎ C. impressive and amazing D. attractive but noisy ‎ ‎28. The underlined word “pitfall” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _________.‎ ‎ A. trap B. evaluation C. adventure D. puzzle ‎29. Why do we need physical libraries in a digital age?‎ ‎ A. Physical libraries allow us to be questioned freely.‎ B. Physical libraries are where we can buy things easily.‎ C. Physical libraries provide more information than the Internet.‎ D. Physical libraries are where we can fully concentrate on study.‎ ‎30. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?‎ ‎ A. A Digital Library in Tianjin B. A Library Available to Get Relaxed ‎ C. A Physical Library–the Focus of the World D. A Physical Library – the Source of Reliable Materials 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处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to Handle Being the New Kid at School Being the new kid at school can be a scary experience!

China, for example, is a land of nappers. 56 the previous studies suggest, napping can not only help babies and young children learn better 57 help brain work better in older adults. ‎ Researchers recently carried out a study, 58 (hope) to find out if napping after a mid-day meal, a tradition in some areas, had any effect on the mental 59 (perform) of the subjects.

I was too old for that. At age eleven, the oldest and my mom’s “grown up” girl, I had to keep my cool. I was in middle school after all. But every chance I got, when I was alone, I checked each present under the tree. I read every tag and felt every package, guessing at the contents within. I had examined each gift so often that I could tell which present went to which person without even looking at the tags.‎ It had been a tough year for my family. Whenever my mom looked over at the tree and scattered(撒) presents, she would sigh and warn us, “There won’t be as much for Christmas this year. Try not to be disappointed.” Christmas had traditionally been a time for my parents to spoil us. In years past, the presents would pile up and spill out from under the tree, taking over the living room. I had heard the phrase “giving is better than receiving,” but thought that whoever had said that must have been out of their mind. Getting presents was the whole point! It was the reason I couldn’t get to sleep on Christmas Eve.‎ On Christmas morning, we eagerly waited in the hallway until Dad told us everything was ready. We rushed into the living room and let the wrapping paper fly. We made weak attempts to wait and watch while other family members opened their presents, but as the time passed we lost our self-control.‎ ‎“Here’s another one for you,” said Mom as she handed me a package. I looked at it, confused. Having spent so much time examining the presents before Christmas, I recognized this one. But it had not been mine. It was my mom’s. A new label had been put on it, with my name written in my mother’s handwriting.‎ ‎“Mom, I can’t…”‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；‎ ‎2. 至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1: ‎ I was stopped by my mother’s eager, joyful look. ‎ Paragraph 2: ‎ I have always remembered that Christmas fondly. ‎ ‎ ‎ 杭西高2018年5月高二英语答案 听力：20分 ‎1-5 CBAAB 6-10 CACBA 11-15 CABBA 16-20 CACBB 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，35分）‎ 第一节（每小题2.5分，共25分）‎ A篇 21-23 CDB B篇 24-26 BDD C篇 27-30 CADC ‎ 第二节（每小题2分，共10分）‎ ‎31-35 GCDFA 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（每小题1.5分，共30分）[]‎ ‎36-40 ACBDD 41-45 BCAAD 46-50 CCABD 51-55 ACDAB 第二节：短文填空（每小题1.5分，共15分）‎ ‎1.

Hurry and open it.” It was a blow dryer. Though this may seem but a simple gift, to me it was so much more. Being an eleven-year-old girl, I was stunned. In my world, where receiving largely outweighed giving, my mom’s act of selflessness was incomprehensible. It was a huge act. Tears filled my eyes and I thought in disbelief about how much my mom must love me to give up her Christmas so I could have a few more presents.‎ Paragraph 2: ‎ I have always remembered that Christmas fondly. It had such an impact on me. As an adult with children in my life whom I adore, I can now understand my mom’s actions. I see, actually, she was not ‎ ‎“giving up her Christmas” as I had thought, but was finding an even greater joy in her Christmas because giving truly is better than receiving. My mom’s simple act meant the world to me. Whenever I look back on my mom’s giving, I will choose to give in my life.‎
