Making a snowman takes patience. We usually 39 by packing a snowball, and then rolled it in the fresh snow. Like 40 a balloon. the snowball magically grew larger. My siblings and I woul d race to see who could make the largest snowball, although a snowball fight usually broke out among us.

My brother Stephen would pack snow between the spaces, and my sister woul d cement(粘结) the newly packed snow. The 44 woul d be repeated when we used another snowball for the head.

三、阅读理解(共10小题:每小题2分,满分20分)

A

For as long as humans have existed, there has been a need to keep in touch, to send information between people in different places. Before writing was invented, spoken messages were carried from one person to another and it was not easy to send longer messages. Writing changed the situation, but it was still difficult to make sue that your message got to the right place.

The Romans created an organized system of mail delivery(投递), call ed Cursus Publicus. This was used by the Emperor and officials to send information throughout the Empire(帝国} Staging posts and a relay system with horses and carriages meant that messages could move quickly, by using many riders instead of one. However, the Romans were not (as many people think) the first to realize this. In 2000 BC the Egyptians used a similar system to keep people informed about the laws in the country. The Chinese and Persian empires also used systems of horses and riders more than 500 yeah before the Romans.

After the Roman postal service disappeared, other systems were created in Europe, but never

again as large as the Roman's. Rulers of countries or regions and even churches created their own official mail network. It was also very important to business between countries that good communication existed. International trad ers set up many unofficial postal links. There was one such link between Venice and Constantinople in the 14th century.

Until the mid-1600s in Europe, only official messages could be carried by the state networks; everyone else had to we less secure, unofficial networks. However. as more roads were built. unofficial networks became safer, more reliable and very profitabl e. Realizing they coul d make money, governments in most countries took control of their own public postal system, making the unofficial networks illegal.

A number of countries claim to have invented the idea of stamps-placing a piece of paper on the letter showing that the postage had been paid for. But the first widely-availabl e stamp was the Penny Black, introduced in Britain by a man called Rowland Hill in 1840. It was a black stamp with a white picture of the Queen's head on it. Hill changed the id ea of payment from distance to weight. The year before its introduction, about 75 million letters had been posted in Britain, yet only 10 years later over 340 million letters were sent using stamp. It was a very important invention and completely changed the postal system. To buy a first-edition of this stamp today can cost over £1000.

Until the 1870s it was still very expensive to send mail to other countries. The Universal Postal Union was created in 1874 to make sure that "all people in the worl d have affordable and reliabl e access to postal services". It cannot tell countries how much to charge. but it helps countries work together and set reasonabl e international mail prices.

With the creation of airmail, it's now cheap and quick to send letters to most parts of the worl d. Unfortunately, the growth of new technology (the Internet, emails, fax machines) means that traditional postal services are becoming l ess popular. Many people now call traditional post "snail mail". because it does not have the speed of an email or a text message. Remember. though it has been here for over 2000 years, and is still a way of delivering a personal message.

56.Sending l onger messages became easier because of .

A. the invention of paper

B. the invention of writing

C. the invention of language

D. the need of communicating

57. According to the passage. Cursus Publicus .

A. was the largest mail network in Europe

B. was the first mail network in human history

C. provided postal service for everyone in Rome

D. was 500 year earlier than the similar system in Egypt

58. The postal link between Venice and Constantinople was built to .

A. help official management

B. promote international trad e

C. compete against official licks

D. improve cultural exchanges

59. It can be learned from Paragraph 5 that before 1840 .

A. the stamp was very expensive

B. most peopl e in Europe had no idea of stamps

C. Britain had the best postal system in the world

D. the postage on a letter was decided by how far it traveled

60. What can be Inferred from the last paragraph?

A. The airmail system grows rapidly.

B. The postal system will become more popular.

C. The speed of traditional post will be improved

D. The traditional postal services remain important in mail delivery.

A team of researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago found that too many kids are eating too much pizza and too many calories are d oing harm to children's health.

"There are a lot of takeaways from the study. But the biggest thing is that parents are serving their kids too much pizza," said Dr.William Dietz, one of the study's authors and the director of the Sumner M.Redstone Global Center for Prevention and Wellness at the Milken Institute of Public Health at the George Washington University.

The researchers used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. which tracked the diets of more than 11.000 children and teenagers. Researchers figured how many children eat pizza in the United States, how often they eat it, and how much they eat when they do.

Pizza, pretty alarmingly, is the second leading source of cal ories in the diets of America's children, next only to grain d esserts, such as cookies and other sweets. On any given day, roughly 20 percent of all children aged 2 to 11 and ad ol escents aged 12 to 19 eat pizza. And when they d o, they eat a lot of it. When children eat pizza, they eat roughly 400 cal ories, according to the study. For teenagers, it's upwards of 600 cal ories.

All that is pretty probl ematic, according to Dietz largely because kids don't tend to balance the pizza slices with salads, vegetables and other more nutritional(有营养的) foodstuffs. Days on which children and teenagers eat pizza are not only associated with considerably higher intakes of fat, but also, quite simply. with more food: on average, children consume 84 extra cal ories on the days they eat pizza, while adolescents consume an extra 230 cal ories.

"When you eat extra calories and don't compensate(抵偿) for them at another point of the day or week it can lead to weight gain and even obesity." Dietz said.

There is a Silver lining. Pizza consumption is still too high by nutrition standards, but it's l ower than it used to be. Consumption(消费) fell by roughly 25 percent between 2007 and 2016, according to the study. Much of that has come at dinner where it's fall en by 40 percent for children and about 33 percent for teenagers. It's unclear whether the decline has been in connection with a growing concern over obesity, especially among the country's youth.

But the drop in pizza consumption, while significant hasn't been big enough "It's a positive trend," Dietz said. "But we're not quite them yet."

It's easy to see the appeal of pizza. It's cheap. Parents can buy a lot of pizza for not a lot of money. Besides, they can buy pizza from a chain shop, a mom-and-pop store or a grocery freezer. And It's universally l oved. The estimated 3 billion pizza eaten each year in the United States is a proof of the food's unmatched popularity. Given how much the country loves pizza, what's to be d one? Dietz

suggests pizza with small er serving sizes and healthier toppings(配料). "We're not suggesting that kids avoid pizza altogether." said Dietz "But when parents serve it. it's important that they understand it's extremely caloric. They should serve smaller pizza, or at least small er slices."

61. According to the study. the probl em with kids is that .

A. they are overweight

B. they have too many takeaways

C. they are fed too much pica

D. they have very bad health

62. How did the researchers get the result?

A. Through interviewing.

B. By analyzing data

C. By tracking kids' diets.

D. Through experimenting.

63. We know from the passage that when kids eat pizza, .

A. they usually don't eat other food

B. they eat less of other food

C. they are not likely to balance their diet

D. they usually eat with vegetables

64. What does the und erlined part a silver lining in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

A. Something hopeful

B. Something valuable.

C. Something miserable.

D. Something successful.

65. What's the key message of the last paragraph?

A. Pizza consumption fell significantly in America.

B. Pizza has many advantages over other food.

C. Eating too much pizza can lead to failing health and obesity.

D. The pizza problem may be improved through its size and topping.

五、任务型阅读(共10小题:每小题1分,满分10分)

请认真阅读下面短文。并根据所读内容在文章后表格的空格里填入最恰当的单词·

注意:每个空格填1个单词。

A best friend is someone you can trust with your d eepest secrets, depend on in case of emergency and cel ebrate meaningful life events with. But developing the skills in being your own best friend means you can depend on your own judgment and be your own source of comfort when you

need advice or support. Being your own best friend can also be a great way to work through feelings of loneliness and insecurity in your life. By cultivating(培养) a productive and positive self, you can learn to trust yourself on a continuous basis.

There are two effective ways that can help you be your own best friend, one of which is to create a healthy relationship with yourself. For this, you need to spend time getting to know yourself. Think about what drives and motivates you, what you like and dislike, and what you are good at or need to improve. The more you understand yourself on an honest and real level, the easier it'll be to like and respect yourself for who you are.

In addition, thinking about your relationships with other people in your life can also help you create a healthy relationship with yourself because good relationships in your life can serve as models for how to be your own best friend. You can write down the names of the people you

consider important in your life, and why they are important to you. Think about questions like, "why am 1 grateful to have these persons in my life?"

The other effective way is enjoying your own company. To achieve this, you can take a trip to a foreign country or place alone. This trip is a great way to develop strong independ ence and self-reliance as well as openness to different attitudes and customs of others. Cultivating a hobby you an enjoy alone or taking up an activity that involves just you are also good ways to get used to your own company and like it. With the upset of someone else sitting across from you, you may find you pay less attention to the movie or the band, or that you are less aware of your own opinions on the environment around you.

More importantly. when you d o something you're proud of, praise yourself for it. By admitting your self-worth and cultivating inner value, you're taking control of what makes you feel good. However, rather than try to make your choices and decisions into what someone else d efines(界定)as successful or powerful. turn inward(向内心或灵魂) and admit that you have value ad meaning in the

2019-2020学年度第一学期高二英语周练试卷(含答案)

2019-2020学年度第一学期高二英语周练试卷 第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A Well, parents, surprise! Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to find rides, and not just to school. It’s awkward to call a friend and ask for a ride, and half the time they’ll say, “Sorry, my car is full.” But with Twitter, you just tweet #Ashleys Pool Party and look for other people heading the same way. It may sound risky, but many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and don’t branch out beyond friends when asking on Twitter. For me, I only rideshare with people I know, but to some young people, especially those taking longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern. The sharing economy got big during the recession(经济衰退). It allows people to access more goods and services using technology, while also allowing them to share cost. And that technology, for me, is what the car was for my mom, a gateway to more freedom. According to the researchers at the University of Michigan, 30 years ago, eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver’s license. Today it’s six in ten. So it’s not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn’t rushing to get a license. All I wanted was an iPhone. Juliet Schor (Sociology professor at Boston College) knows people of my age love being connected and for young people driving means they have to disconnect from their technology, and that’s a negative. So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected, that’s going to be a plus. To me, another plus is ridesharing represents something more than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can find me on Twitter. 21 The writer usually rideshares with _____. A. anyone heading the same way B. people he knows

2017-2018学年高二年级周练二英语试卷

江西省安义中学2017-2018学年度上学期高二英语第二次周练试卷 第一节阅读理解 Life is not easy in senior high school. You’ve got the pressure of studies and exams. From time to time, you may feel depressed and frustrated. When depression strikes, you have to take measures to fight it. One of the strangest ways to fight depression is to eat salt, scientists have found. Salt acts as a natural anti—depressant (抗抑郁剂), researchers say. While too much can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, not enough can cause “psychological(心理的) d epressions”, a study has reported. The study, by researchers at the University of Iowa in the US, discovered that when rats are deficient in salt, they don’t do activities they normally enjoy. The recommended daily salt intake for an adult is four grams, although experts say the body needs only half as much. However, most adults in the developed world consume(消耗)around ten grams a day, mainly because their diets contain high salt amounts. Today, 77 percent of US salt intake comes from processed and restaurant foods, like frozen dinners and fast food. The minerals in salt are required by the body—in small quantities—to help move liquid in and out of cells. But too much can cause diseases, for example high blood pressure. Today scientists are finding that salt is an addictive substance—almost like a drug. One s ign of addiction is using a substance even when it’s known to be harmful. Many people are told to eat less salt due to health concerns, but they have trouble doing so because they like the taste and find low-salt foods tasteless. Humans have a long histor y of eating salt. In the Stone Age, people didn’t need to find salt, because they hunted most of their food, and ate a lot of red meat, which has plenty of salt in it. But when people began to farm, about 10,000 BC, they started to eat mainly grains like rice and wheat, and very little meat. Then they had to find another way to get salt. 1. What does the underlined word "deficient" in the third paragraph mean? A. enough B. far from enough C. more than enough D. plenty 2. The major role of salt is to ____________. A. help the body work well B. help fight against depression C. help people get rid of an addiction to drugs D. help people enjoy sugary substances 3. Which of the following statements is true? A. People have trouble reducing salt because they don't know it is harmful to eat too much of it. B. Before 10,000 BC, human beings did not need salt. C. The richer the country is, the more salt is eaten there. D. Taking more than 4 grams of salt a day can be harmful for an adult's health. 4. What kind of food should people eat more of? A. Frozen food B. Fast food C. Red meat D Low--salt food 第二节:七选五 Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes(刻板印象) or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail? At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒).__5__ Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green-eyed monster” and the UK is its home. Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money.__6__ Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others— but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this. __7__. But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world's fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either. “It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.” _8__ They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires.__9__ It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them. A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain. B. The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.

17学年上学期高二第13周英语周练(附答案)(20200222174434)

横峰中学2016-2017学年度上学期 高二英语第十三周周练试卷 命题人:汪佳嘉 第一节:阅读理解(每题 2.5分,共10分) What is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, chemistry, geology, engineering, medical or any other science? We all know that science plays an important role in the societies in which we live. Many people believe, however, that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first of these is the application of the machines and products that scientists and technologists develop. New drugs, faster and safer means of transport, new systems of applied knowledge are some examples of this aspect of science. The second aspect is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work. What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is full of curiosity — he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually directs his attention towards problems which he notices have no satisfactory explanation, and his curiosity makes him look for underlying relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions, whether of pure or applied knowledge, and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves. He is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and applies persistent and logical thought to the observations he makes. He uses the facts he observes to the full extent. For example, trained observers acquire a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum. He is skeptical —he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available — and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Furthermore, he is not only critical of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to
