As the Japanese students already know, four main islands and more than 3,000 small ones stretch from north to south for about 1,300 miles. As for the climate of the country, well, it’s hot and humid(潮湿) in summer, but it is quite cold and wet in Japan during winter. Typhoons, which are violent tropical storms, often threaten Japan during the fall. That’s, of course, during the harvest season.‎ The population of Japan is about 110,5 million. It may seem hard to believe, but the average population density(密度) of the country is about 678 persons per square mile.‎ About two thirds of the entire population lives in Japan’s cities. The other one third lives in the suburbs or in the countryside. No other country in southern or eastern Asia has such a large urban, or city population. Tokyo, the capital city of Japan, is the most density-populated city in the world. At last count there were more than 11.5 million people living in Tokyo.‎ ‎56. Why is Japan called an island country? Because ______.‎ ‎ A. Japan is a small country B. it is on the - 19 - / 19‎ ‎ Pacific Ocean ‎ C. it has thousands of big and small islands D. Japan has hundreds of small islands ‎57. Typhoons often attack Japan during______.‎ ‎ A. spring B. summer C. autumn D. winter ‎58. Most of the people in Japan live_____.‎ ‎ A. in the rural areas B. in the countryside ‎ C. around the cities D. in the cities ‎59. The most densely-populated city in the world is_____.‎ ‎ A. New York B. Shanghai ‎ C. London D. the capital of Japan ‎ B ‎　A white-haired old gentleman steps out of his car, bag in hand and coat over his arm. He has called from his office to say that he is on the way. His wife is preparing supper. He can see the light shining inside his own front door. He looks forward to fire and hot milk. It is a cold night. A few seconds later he is lying on the icy ground in a pool of his own blood. 　　It doesn't happen very often, but it does happen in the capital city of the United States. It is more likely to happen in the near-deserted city center at night. What happened to him could happen to any of us. 　　Senator Stennis, who is 71, got out of his white Buick at 7:40 p.m. outside his home at 3609 Cumberland Street. Two youths said, "Get out! Money, please." 　　He followed the order. He handed over his wallet containing several cards, a gold watch and the only money he had in his pockets—twenty-seven cents. The youths also said, "Now, we're - 19 - / 19‎ ‎ going to shoot you anyway." Anyway they did. One bullet （子弹）hit him in the leg and struck the bone. The other entered his chest just below the upper pocket of his suit. It narrowly missed his heart. 　　Strangely he made it across a ten-meter distance, up eight steps and along twenty more feet of stone path. His wife met him at the door, and saw two men running. The senator told her to call the police and the doctor. 　　The senator is powerful political figure, but it is unlikely that the two young men knew who he was. More likely the reason for the killing was that he had only no more than a quarter of dollar—not enough for two cups of coffee. ‎ ‎60. According to the passage ______.‎ ‎　　A. such a mugging（抢劫）might have happened to anyone.‎ ‎　　B. the mugging happened on a cold evening in a senator's home.‎ ‎　　C. the senator was killed because he was an important politician.‎ ‎　　D. the mugging might not have happened if the senator was young and strong.‎ ‎61. Having robbed the senator, the two young men ______.‎ ‎　　A. pulled him into a pool.‎ ‎　　B. shot two bullets into his body.‎ ‎　　C. hit out at him hard.‎ ‎　　D. carried him away.‎ ‎62. The two young men were angry by the fact that _____.‎ ‎　　A. the senator tried to cheat them.‎ ‎　　B. they failed to get the senator's expensive car.‎ ‎　　C. the senator didn't die in their hands.‎ ‎　　D. they didn't get what they had expected.‎ ‎63. Which of the following statements is NOT true?‎ ‎　　A. A near-deserted city center at night is a dangerous place.‎ ‎　　B. People should always carry some money with them.‎ ‎　　C. Though seriously wounded, the senator managed to get home on his own.‎ ‎　　D. The senator's wife met the two men and recognized them immediately.‎ C We use both words and body language to express our thoughts - 19 - / 19‎ ‎ and opinions and to communicate with other people. We can learn about what a person is thinking by watching his or her body language. Words are important, but the way a person stands, folds his or her arms, or moves his or her hands can also give us information about his or her feelings.‎ Just like spoken language, body language varies from culture to culture. Making eye contact —looking directly into someone’s eyes — is in some countries a way to show interest. In other countries, however, eye contact is rude or disrespectful. The gesture for Ok, making a circle with one’s thumb and index finger, has different meanings in different cultures. In Japan, someone who sees another person making the gesture will think it means money. In France, a person seeing the same gesture will think it means zero. In Brazil and Germany, however, the gesture is rude. The thumbs-up gesture, meaning “great” or “good job” in the US is rude in Nigeria, but in Germany and Japan it means the number one. The “crazy” gesture, moving the index finger in a circle in front of the ear, means “you have a phone call” in Brazil.‎ Even the gesture we use for “yes” and “no” are different around the world. In many countries, shaking one’s head means “no”, and nodding means “yes”. In Bulgaria, parts of Greece, and Iran, however, the gestures have the opposite meaning. There are also differences as to how often we touch each other, how close we stand to someone we are talking to, and how we act when we meet or part. In some countries, for example, France and Russia, a visiting friend is greeted with a kiss on the check, in other countries people greet each other with a firm handshake, a loving hug, a bow or a simply a nod of the head.‎ While there are many different interpretations of our body language, some gestures seem to be universal. Pressing one’s palms together and resting one’s head on the back of one’s hand while closing the eyes as if sleeping means “I am tired.” A good way of saying “I am full” is moving the hand in circles over the stomach after a meal. If a person pats his or her stomach before a meal, it usually means “ I’m hungry.”‎ Perhaps the best example of universally understood body language is the smile. A smile can help us get through difficult situation and find friends in a world of strangers. A smile can open doors and tear down walls. It can be used to express almost - 19 - / 19‎ ‎ any emotion. We can use a smile to apologise, to greet someone, to ask for help or to start a conversation. We can smile at ourselves in the mirror to make ourselves feel happier and stronger. And if we are feeling down or lonely, there is nothing better than to see the smiling face of a good friend.‎ ‎64. In our daily life, which of the following do we use to communicate with each other?‎ A. gestures B. words C. smiles D. all above ‎65. As a Chinese , if you are lost in Germany, without knowing German, you’d better ______ to ask for help?‎ A. use eye-contact B. thumb-up C. smile D. say “excuse me”‎ ‎66. What does this passage mainly about?‎ A. all the gestures in the world B. the same body language in the world C. gestures in the western countries D. using proper gesture to express yourself ‎67. The underlined word “universal” in the last second paragraph probably means ______.‎ A. wide B. common C. not similar D. in space D ‎ Once there was no zero. To write the number sixty-three, people wrote 63. To write six hundred and three, people wrote 6 3. The space was there to mean "not any" tens. Sometimes people did not remember the space. It was hard to see and to read. 　　Later people used a dot（点） to hold the space. Six hundred and three looked like this 6.3. But the dot was hard to see. So people put a circle around it. Then people could see the dot. They remembered the space. 　　At last, only the circle around the dot was used. It was like a zero. This is one story of how the zero came to be used. 　　Now zero has many important uses. Can you tell some other ways zero is used? ‎ ‎68. Long, long ago, people didn't know how to _____.‎ ‎　　A. write 603 B. write zero ‎　　C. write numbers D. write sixty-three - 19 - / 19‎ ‎69. Long, long ago, if they wrote two hundred and eight, people wrote ____.‎ ‎　　A. 28　　　 B. 2 8　　　 C. 280　　　 D. 208.‎ ‎70. Later ____ was used to mean space.‎ ‎　　A. "not any" 　　　 B. letter "o" C. zero 　　　D. a dot ‎71. The story tells us ____.‎ ‎　　A. how zero happened. 　　　　B. how to write zero.‎ C. what's the use of zero.　　 D. that zero means a dot, a circle or space.‎ E How to Make the Most of Your Time ‎ Time management is important in our daily life. There never seems to be enough hours in the day to accomplish all you need to do. Here are some tips that might be of some help to you. 1. Set up a plan. Go for a week at a time, and prioritize the most important ones. Include things you want to accomplish. Focus mostly on the things that are important to you. ‎ ‎2. Control your stress. No matter what kind of pressure mounts on you, try to keep cool. Stressing out can lead to an early breakdown, which is definitely counter-productive when you have a list of things to do. It's easier to take a 10-minute break and cool off than work all week with built up stress.‎ ‎3. Shut your door. When working under a schedule, perform your important tasks with your door shut to get them done. This will ensure a better quality time to get what needs to be done. ‎ ‎4. Focus on one thing at a time. Forget trying to multi-task! You will lose concentration, and it will take you longer to accomplish what you set out to do. 5. Just say "no." If you are constantly interrupted, and you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no." You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself! 6. Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short, and to the point you'll waste much less time. 7. Be realistic. You can only do what you can do. Don't set out to accomplish the impossible. Do your best, but keep realistic expectations of yourself. ‎ - 19 - / 19‎ ‎ ‎ ‎8. Relax. The most important thing is remember to take time to relax, and regroup. You need a break every now and then to keep working efficiently. Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your list and get refreshed. As families today get busier and busier, it's important to your own mental health to keep things on track. Don't delay; get your life in order now. ‎ ‎72. What does the underlined word “prioritize” in Paragraph 2 mean? ‎ A. choose something by thinking carefully B. recognize the difference between things ‎ C. put many things in order of importance ‎ D. get rid of something that is unwanted ‎73. We should avoid stressing out because ____________.‎ A. it may cause us to fail to work normally ‎ B. it may limit the speed to get things done ‎ C. we don’t have enough energy to keep working ‎ D. we are supposed to have a break while working ‎74. Which statement would the author agree to?‎ A. Try multi-tasks, and we can get more done.‎ B. It is impolite to refuse to help others at work. ‎ C. Having breaks regularly may delay our tasks. ‎ D. It is wise to be aware of what we can achieve. ‎ ‎75. By writing the text, the author would like to ___________. ‎ A. ask readers to share their time management skills ‎ B. offer some advice on how to make full use of time C. invite readers to discuss how to improve life quality D. persuade readers to spend less time on daily routine ‎ - 19 - / 19‎ 玉溪一中2010-2011学年上学期 高中二年级期中（学段）考试 英 语 第二卷（共35分）‎ 姓名 班级 学号 ‎ 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共35分）‎ 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（满分10分）‎ 此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行做出判断：如无错误，在该行右边横线上画一个勾（√）;如有错误（每行只有一个错误）则按下列情况改正：‎ ‎ 该行多一个词：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉，在该行右边横线上写出该词，并也用斜线划掉。‎ ‎ 该行少一个词：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（^），并在右边横线上写出所加的词。‎ ‎ 该行错一个词：在错词下划一横线，在该行右边横线上写出改正的词。‎ 注意：原行没错的不要改。‎ ‎ Many students are on the sports field taking part all 1．___________ ‎ kinds of sports.

However, 15% of the students thought that it is no use going to college because it’s extremely difficult for college graduates to get satisfactory jobs. In addition, the tuition is too high for their families to pay for. The remaining 10% held the view that “ All roads lead to Rome.” Therefore, they thought it doesn’t make any difference whether they go to college or not.‎ In my opinion, it’s a better choice to go to college so we because we can receive more education. But if we are unable to enter college, there are many other choices for us, and we can still contribute to society.‎ - 19 - / 19‎
