高二英语上学期上册试题

A group of dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life. One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problems with   41  . He argued, "What's a kid going to learn from a teacher? You know what people say about teachers: those who can, do---those who can't,   42  ."

To stress his point he turned to another guest, "You're a teacher, Bonnie. What do you  43  ?"

  Bonnie, who had a reputation for   44  and frankness, replied, "You want to know what I make?” She   45  for a second and then began.

"Well, I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could. I make kids sit through 40 minutes of   46   time while their parents can't make them   47  for 5 minutes without an iPod. You want to know what I make?"

She paused again and looked at each and every person sitting at the table   48  .

"I make kids wonder and question. I make them   49  for what they do  50  . I make them have   51  for the old and take responsibility for their actions. I teach them to write. I make them read. I make them learn everything they   52  to know in English while they’re preserving their own unique  53  identity. I make my classroom a place where all of my students feel   54  without fearing any danger.

 Finally I make them understand that if they use the   55  they were given, work hard, and follow their hearts, they can  56  in life."

Bonnie paused one last time and then continued. "Then when people try to   57   me by what I make, I can hold my head up high and pay no attention because they are  58  . You want to know what I make? I make a   59  ! What do you make? "

My dear teachers and fellow students,

In a couple of weeks, we’ll say goodbye to our mother school.          


 

Some people believe that greed and selfishness have become the basis of modern societyand we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life.To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?

In this fast­paced worldmany values are undergoing major changes.While people traditionally prioritize caringsharing and generosity in life and workmodern people seem to be more selfabsorbed and self­concerned.

Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life.They say that it is a jungle out there.To surviveyou have to fight with whatever means that come in handy.Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas.In a companyemployees do everything they can to get better pay and higher positioneven at the cost of colleagues.We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct.It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.

In spite of common practiceit is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishnessboth of which are not newly invented vocabulary.In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then.But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.

Are we happier to share with others and be generous to themThere is no fixed answer either.Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite.But I personally think that people should not be too selfish.Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.In conclusionmodern people appear to be more self­centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure.Howeverwe should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.

Are Modern People Becoming More Selfish

Main comparisons

Contexts

56________are changing

In the past people put caringsharing and generosity in the first

Nowadayspeople seem to be more 57________

58_______about themselves.

59_______are changing too.

People in the past appeared to be modest and selfeffacing(谦逊的)

People may strive to achieve their own 60_______at the price of their coworkers.

The author’s understanding

61________for the changes in author’s eyes

Fierce 62_______and great 63________on modern people may be responsible for the changes.

The author’s 64_______ towards topic

A relationship which can 65_______ two sides should be established.

The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman's life spent in caring for the children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, four or five of whom lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has to take care of children, her work is lightened by modern living conditions.

This important change in women's life-patterns has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls took a full-time job after they left school. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school- leaving age is sixteen; many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry older, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more afterwards return to full-or-part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.

24. At what age did most women marry around the 1890 according to the passage?

  A. At about twenty-five             B. In their earl fifties

  C. At the age of fifteen            D. At any age from fifteen to forty-five

25. Many girls, the passage claims, are now likely to_______.

 A. give up their jobs for good after they are married

 B. leave school as soon as they can

 C. marry so that they can get a job

 D. continue working until they are going to have a baby

26. When she was over fifty, a late nineteenth-century mother ______.

  A. was usually expected to die fairly soon

  B. would expect to work until she died

  C. would be healthy enough to take up paid jobs

  D. was less likely to find a job even if she wanted to

27. Nowadays, a husband tends to_______.

 A. play a greater part in looking after the children

 B. help his wife by doing much of the housework

 C. feel dissatisfied with his role in the family

 D. take a part-time job so that he can help in the home

If you get tired ________ staying hereyou’re ________ liberty to go wherever you like.

A. ofat           B. fromat         C. offor          D. fromfor

First your time for eating , sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying.

Evelyn Glennie was the first lady of solo percussion in Scotland. In an interview, she recalled how she became a percussion soloist (打击乐器独奏演员) in spite of her disability.

“Early on I decided not to allow the  21 of others to stop me from becoming a musician. I grew up on a farm in northeast Scotland and began  22 piano lessons when I was eight. The older I got, the more my passion for music grew. But I also began to gradually lose my  23 . Doctors concluded that the nerve damage was the  24 and by age twelve, I was completely deaf. But my love for music never  25 me.

“My 26 was to become a percussion soloist, even though there were none at that time. To perform, I  27 to hear music differently from others. I play in my stocking feet and can  28 the pitch of a note (音调高低) by the vibrations (振动). I feel through my body and through my  29 . My entire sound world exists by making use of almost every  30 that I have.

“I was  31 to be assessed as a musician, not as a deaf musician, and I applied to the famous Royal Academy of Music in London. No other deaf student had  32 this before and some teachers 33 my admission. Based on my performance, I was  34 admitted and went to  35 with the academy’s highest honors.

“After that, I established myself as the first full-time solo percussionist. I  36 and arranged a lot of musical compositions since  37 had been written specially for solo percussionists.

“I have been a soloist for over ten years.  38 the doctor thought I was totally deaf, it didn’t  39 that my passion couldn’t be realized. I would encourage people not to allow themselves to be  40 by others. Follow your passion; follow your heart, they will lead you to the place you want to go.”
