Admission is at normal charges and you don’t need to book. They end around 21:00.‎ November 7th The Canal Pioneers, by Chris Lewis.

Anyone with a camera – or a mobile phone – can practice it. An image communicates in a way that words often can’t. As the photographer Destin Sparks put it, “Photography is the story I fail to put into words.” And what better opportunity do we have to practice the art of photography than during our vacation time?‎ Holiday photos have been a part of the culture of travelers for as long as the camera has existed. For decades, vacationers have made sure they’ve packed a camera along with bathing suits, Hawaiian shirts and sunglasses. A camera is an important holiday item. But over the last 10 years, photography has become much more popular. It’s easy to capture (捕捉) still and moving images of places of interest, and it’s also easy to show off these images on social media. Armed with their smart phones, tourists, this year more than ever, are capturing the beauty of our planet.‎ Of course, travel companies have caught on to this. Trekksoft has an example of photo-tourism from the United States, a land with a vast choice of beautiful locations. Antelope Slot Canyon Tours in Arizona specializes in tours of the state’s famous canyons (峡谷), which gives photographers the opportunity to capture them on camera.‎ Not that any great technology is needed for this: most of the tourists are able to make beautiful images with just their mobile phones. Still, help is on hand from the tour guide for those who aren’t great at using their cameras. These tour guides have taken a course in photography in case the skills they’ve learned would help their customers.‎ ‎24. According to the writer, which of the following can be the best time to practice photography?‎ A. the time when people are traveling around. ‎ B. the time when people have no words to say.‎ C. the time when you have a mobile phone with you.‎ D. the time when you have a tour guide to help you.‎ ‎25. What does the word “this” in paragraph 3 refer to?‎ A.The popularity of holiday photography. B. The beauty of our planet.‎ C. The technology of photography. D. The tourism in the United States.‎ ‎26. What is special about Antelope Slot Canyon Tours?‎ A.Its amazing canyons. B. Its professional tour guide.‎ C. Its photo-tourism. D. Its great photography course.‎ C One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.‎ ‎“Is it good?” I asked her.‎ ‎“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.‎ ‎“ ‘Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:‎ She never puts her toys away,‎ Just leaves them scattered(散乱的) where they lay,…‎ The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:‎ When she grows and gathers poise(稳重),‎ I’ll miss her harum-scarum(莽撞的)noise,‎ And look in vain(徒劳的)for scattered toys.‎ And I’ll be sad.‎ A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.‎ ‎“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.‎ To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst out crying.‎ ‎“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.‎ ‎“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”‎ She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”‎ ‎“Okay,” I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.‎ I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.‎ ‎27. Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?‎ A. It was a thick enough book. B. Her mother was reading it with interest.‎ C. Something on its cover caught her eye. D. It has a meaningful title.‎ ‎28. After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.‎ A. excited B. sad C. horrified D. confused ‎29. The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably because______.‎ A. it reflected her own childhood B. it was written in simple language C. it was composed by a famous poet D. it gave her a hint of what would happen ‎30. It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to _______.‎ A. discover the power of poetry B. recognize her love for puzzles C. find her eagerness to grow up D. experience great homesickness 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。‎ In six months, I will be 50 but I already know what I’ll regret. This is the answer. “if anything had been different, I wouldn’t be who I am today.” Being like what I am today is so great that I’d never want to change it. But… 31 ‎ KIDS. I wish I had spent more time with my kids. 32 But I worked really hard and, I admit, I probably avoided them when they were really young and difficult to wake up and get ready for school when they were younger.‎ MONEY. I wish for 15 years or so I wasn’t so focused on money.‎ CREATIVITY. I began my career in my 20s doing things that were really creative that I loved. I was trying to write a novel. I was trying to do a TV show. I was always around people I loved so much. And I spent time with them because I loved them and not because I wanted anything else. I wish I had stuck with that. Now, in my 40s, I’m trying to catch up. 33 ‎ HUMILITY. When I first made some money, I became a bit too proud. I started investing in all of these horrible companies and having horrible friends. 34 If I were humble and just went back to what I loved, I bet I’d be happier.‎ DISAGREEMENT. 35 I still have a hard time with that. I wish when someone does something that I don’t like or agree with I would say “no” a bit more often. I’ve gotten into a lot of bad situations because I didn’t say “no”. Here are two cases where I should have said “no” more often: when someone treats me badly and when I don’t want to do something but I feel bad about hurting someone.‎ Anyway, if I had a time machine, would I go back in time? I’m not sure. It’s OK to feel regretful some times.‎ A. It’s never too late, of course.‎ B. I couldn’t say “no” to people.‎ C. Sure, I spend quality time with them now.‎ D. It’s the double-horrible that finally kills you.‎ E. I used to disagree with others’ unreasonable requests.‎ F. I wish I could have done something differently in the past.‎ G. I would have held my daughter’s hand when she came home from school.‎ 第三部分：语言运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ In our modern world, when something wears out, we throw it away and buy a new one.

It happens as time passes or as a result of one’s decision. Changes may be positive or negative depending on how we understand them. Some people are happy to live a life of routine, while others accept changes and prefer a challenging world where events are unpredictable.‎ From one point of view, people who accept changes think that changes make their life meaningful. Firstly, changes create new opportunities, which make us move forward. A new job, for example, might present challenges that push the person to adapt, acquire new knowledge, or adapt to their skill sets. Secondly, a change can represent a break with the past and an old routine which has become boring and predictable. Finally, as well as making life more fun and interesting, new experiences can be good for our physical and mental health. We find that changes can make us experienced and valuable.‎ On the other hand, people who don’t want to step outside their comfort zone prefer following their daily habits. They feel satisfied with their circumstances. Perhaps they feel that a routine gives them structure, and maybe they are not fond of surprises or confident enough to face new challenges. They believe that staying secure and maintaining the present circumstances is the best way to live ‎ life safer. Such people have set times for performing certain functions and do things in the same way all the time. They fear the uncertainty of unknown and may associate changes with negative outcomes. For example, transition in position or status gives people worries as to whether they can manage a new task.‎ Both sides seem to have their own advantages. However, I personally think change is necessary if someone wants to keep up with the fast pace of modern life. Even if some people maintain a form of stability by following a routine, the world keeps spinning and developing. Without change there would be no life at all. Our lives are actually fuelled by change, and seeing change as natural and unavoidable will bring us considerable stress relief. ‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ 菱湖中学2018学年第二学期3月月考 高二英语参考答案 第一部分：听力（每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎1-5 CBAAC 6-10 BBACC 11-15 CACBA 16-20 ACABA 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节（共10个小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）‎ ‎21-BCD 24-26 AAC 27-30 CBDA 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎31-35 FCADB第三部分：语言应用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） ‎ ‎36-45 BDACD ACBDC 46-55 BBCDB ACABD 第二节：语法填空（共10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ ‎56. to adopt 57. carved 58. with 59. who 60. evidently ‎61. possessions 62. a 63.
