Jack Andraka Jack Andraka created a biosensor for cancer that he says is 168 times faster, 26,667 times less expensive and 400 times more sensitive than technology nowadays. He’s the youngest person to have spoken in front of the Royal Society of Medicine. Taylor Wilson Taylor Wilson was the youngest person to achieve nuclear fusion(核聚变). He was inspired by The Radioactive Boy Scout, a novel in which a kid tries and fails to build a nuclear reactor. Taylor thought he could do better. Long story short, he wanted to build a small nuclear reactor. And he did it at the age of fourteen. He received a Thiel Fellowship, which gave him $100,000 to work on his own research. Sara Volz Sara Volz performed experiments in which she grew algae based on their oil output for the purpose of growing them as biofuel(生物燃料) . This research is especially important as the world continues to search for a way to lessen our dependence on non-renewable energy. She won the top prize of $100,000 in the Intel Science Talent Search. Daniel Burd Plastic usually takes thousands of years to decompose(降解), but this high school student Daniel Bur d managed to do it in three months. In an experiment, he mixed plastic bags and a special kind of dirt together, and found that they did decompose faster. He then performed tests to find the bacteria responsible for decomposing the plastics. His solution only produces water and small amounts of carbon dioxide. He says it could easily be used elsewhere. 21. Who designed a medical instrument? A. Sara Volz. B. Daniel Burd. C. Jack Andraka. D. Taylor Wilson. 22. What excited Taylor Wilson’s interest in his invention? A. A novel by a kid. B. Plastic pollution. C. Energy shortage. D. A scientific novel. 23. What do we know about Daniel Burd’s invention? A. It won him a $100,000 prize. B. It is environmentally friendly. C. It was completed in four months. D. It is widely used for everyday waste. B A new mobile application called Farm Assistant was developed by Wu Zeyin. Wu is 11 years old now, who moved to Botswana with his family in 2016. During the past years living in the country, Wu found that the quantity of fruit and vegetables sold at local supermarkets was very limited and the quality was poor. Some vegetables weren’t ripe, such as small carrots and green tomatoes. They are also quite expensive. Tropical savanna(草原) and desert climates are typical in most parts of the country. This makes it difficult to grow common crops. Drought-tolerant species of corn, sorghum and beans are also uncommon. For a long time, due to the food shortage, Botswana had to import many grains, fruits and vegetables from neighboring countries to meet the needs of its people. In July last year, Gaborone, the capital of Botswana, successfully kicked off a pilot project to grow China’s water-saving and drought-tolerant rice. This brought Wu some new ideas on local agriculture. The app supports eight crops commonly grown locally. These include tomatoes, potatoes, onions, corn, carrots, cabbage, eggplant and radishes. Farmers who use the application can click on the crop picture. They can see its time points of planting, watering needs, ripening time, seed price, selling price and yield. After planting the seeds, farmers click the timer to start. The application reminds them what to do at each stage. Wu, whose invention has been moving the needle for the life of Botswana farmers, still focuses on solving agricultural problems. He quotes an old saying in China, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and he feeds himself for life.” 24. Which can be the main reason for Botswana’s food shortage? A. Limited supplies in local markets. B. Unfavourable climate conditions. C. Lack of advanced farming techniques. D. Frequent threats from natural disasters. 25. What does the underlined words “kicked off” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Carried out. B. Got rid of. C. Gave away. D. Took over. 26. How can Wu’s application make farmers’ work easier? A. It improves local planting environment. B. It identifies the commonly grown crops. C. It teaches farmers when to plant the seeds. D. It provides basic information of the crops. 27. Which can best describe Wu from the last paragraph? A. Helpful and creative. B. Caring and modest. C. Optimistic and ambitious. D. Considerate and faithful. C Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are. GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street. There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well. The GPS is becoming cheaper and more and more accurate. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again. 28. According to the passage, with the help of GPS, people __________. A. can’t be lost in a new city B. can’t find their way in different countries C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place D. can spend the least time getting to another place 29. We can learn from the passage that __________. A. the GPS is made up of three parts B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch C. a GPS can help you start your car D. the GPS is becoming more and more expensive 30. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 means “__________”. A. receivers B. GPS devices C. satellites D. ground stations 31. The passage is mainly about __________. A. the history of the GPS B. the introduction of the GPS C. the shape of the GPS D. the three parts of the GPS D To solve a big environmental problem, chemists have been thinking small. Really small: a new mini robot with the purpose of helping clean up tiny plastic that pollutes water across the world. The new microrobots, each of which is no bigger than the tip of a pencil, are magnetic(有磁性的) and shaped like four-pointed stars. When the sunlight shines on them, they can swim in a direction; when the sunlight disappears, they stop moving. Finding a piece of plastic, they hold onto it, produce chemical reactions and start to break it down. The project is led by chemist Martin Pumera, a researcher who also studies ways to build microrobots at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague. About ten years ago, he noticed the microplastic was everywhere, from the bottom of the ocean to the ice on the top of mountains. It even turned up in drinking water, both bottled and tap water. Just think about how much plastic you meet every day. It doesn’t easily degrade(降解) which is a big problem. Therefore, Pumera chose to focus on the problem of water pollution caused by microplastic. The researchers tested the microrobots on four types of plastic in the lab. After a week, all four began degrading, losing around 3 percent of their weight, which showed the microrobots were breaking the plastic down. The robots also turned the plastic’s smooth surface into the rough one. Finally, the scientists showed that magnets could attract the microrobots at the end of the test—along with the plastic waste. In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. These microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading all types of plastic. They’ll also need a lot of testing to show that they’re safe in open waterways, such as at sea. But he thinks that these challenges can be overcome. Someday, the microrobots will play a big role in a worldwide cleanup effort. 32. What can be learned about the new microrobot? A. It is in the shape of a ball. B. It is as small as a pencil. C. It is driven by sunlight. D. It uses physical reactions. 33. What inspired Pumera to design the microrobot? A. The microplastic pollution. B. The ice on the mountains. C. The need for drinking water. D. The development of ocean resources. 34. How does a microrobot deal with the plastic? A. Sorting it into four types. B. Making its surface smooth. C. Taking in it completely. D. Breaking it down to some degree. 35. What is Pumera’s attitude to their future research? A. Doubtful. B. Confident. C. Regretful. D. Uncertain. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 Characteristics of an excellent scientist The dictionary defines a scientist as a person having professional knowledge on one or more sciences, especially natural science or physical science. It also defines a scientist as some one who uses scientific methods. 36 Curiosity. 37 Scientists such as Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse discovered things mainly because they wanted to know how things work. Without a drive to ask questions or even wonder, a scientist will never get to the first stage of the scientific process. Patience. Becoming a scientist takes a long time. There are very few jobs that take longer than this one. 38 If you’re an instant-gratification type of person, this may not be the best choice for you. Ethical(道德的) qualities. In order to truly discover and use knowledge for the greater good, a scientist must have a desire to improve people’s life as well as the environment, since they are linked and they can affect one another in the long run. 39 Sticking to an old belief contradicted with evidence is dishonest. However, that belief shouldn’t be changed without powerful evidence. 40 An excellent scientist even takes notes of the smallest observation and keeps it in mind. He/She can work well alone or in groups depending on what’s needed, and he/she also needs to communicate thoughts on paper and verbally. Networking connects him/her with colleagues working on similar projects where he/she may discover something new. A. Working habits. B. A scientist must report findings honestly regardless of personal interests or public opinion. C. An excellent scientist must be very curious about things. D. You still have much scientific research to do even if you received education on science. E. One of the main places that many scientists work in is the research laboratory. F. Working time. G. Let’s look at some characteristics of an excellent scientist. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I had a perfect childhood. 41 I saw was new, wonderful and exciting.

The thought that they were his own work delighted him. Tom Austin, one of his playmates, thought a toy was worth nothing unless it cost a great deal of money. He never tried to make anything, but bought all his toys. “Come and look at my horse,” said he, one day. “It cost a dollar, and it is such a beauty! Come and see it.” John was soon admiring his friend’s horse, and he was examining it carefully, to see how it was made. The same evening he began to make one on his own. He went into the wood shed, and picked out two pieces of wood—one for the head of his horse, the other for the body. It took him two or three days to shape them to his satisfaction. His father gave him a bit of red leather for a bridle(马笼头), and a few brass(黄铜) nails, and his mother found a bit of old fur with which he made a mane(鬃毛) and tail for his horse. But what about the wheels? This puzzled him. At last he thought he would go to a turner’s shop, and see if he could get some round pieces of wood which might suit his purpose. He found a large number of such pieces among the shavings on the floor, and asked permission to take a few of them. The turner(车工) asked him what he wanted them for, and he told him about his horse. “Oh,” said the man, laughing, “if you wish it, I will make some wheels for your horse. But remember, when it is finished, you must let me see it.” John promised to do so, and he soon ran home with the wheels in his pocket. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, he went to the turner’s shop with his horse all complete. He studied hard in school. 高二英语参考答案 听力 1-5 ACBBC 6-10 CBBAC 11-15 ACABC 16-20 BAABC 阅读理解 21.

Yours, Li Hua 读后续写 The next morning, he went to the turner’s shop with his horse all complete. Proud of the turner’s praise, John ran to his friend Tom, crying, “Now then, Tom, here is my horse, —look!” “Well, that is a funny horse,” said Tom with interest; “where did you buy it?” “I didn’t buy it,” replied John, “I made it.” “You made it yourself! Oh, well, it’s a good horse for you to make. But it is not so good as mine. Mine cost a dollar while yours cost nothing.” “It was real fun to make it, though.” said John, and away he ran with his horse rolling after him. He studied hard in school. He was the top student in his class and was still crazy about making things on his own. When he graduated, he went to work in a machine shop. Definitely, it delighted him to make amazing things by machine. To his satisfaction, he is now a master workman, and will soon have a shop of his own. 听力原文 Text 1 M: What do you think of the fashion show held last weekend? W: To tell the truth, you can’t expect a better one. Text 2 W: Hey, aren’t you looking for a job? M: Yes, I am. Did you find something for me in the paper? W: I think so. There’s an advertisement here you might be interested in. Text 3 W: At first I thought this glass was yellow, but now it looks green to me. M: You were right the first time. It’s this blue light that makes everything here look different. Text 4 W: I need to talk to you. Can we meet sometime today? M: Well, I’m quite busy; I’m going to a lecture this morning and I’m meeting Danielle for lunch. Text 5 M: This is a very expensive watch, but I’ve had trouble with it ever since I bought it. I insist on seeing the manager. W: Actually, there is no need for that, sir. I’ll give you another watch just like this one. Text 6 M: What does your father grow, Mary? W: He grows potatoes and cabbages, and other things like that, but he grows more wheat than vegetables. M: Yes, your father told me about that. What do you keep in that building? W: Cows. Would you like to see inside? It’s more modern than the house. M: You’ve got a lovely house, Mary. W: Yes, it was built almost 300 years ago. It’s very old-fashioned, but my parents don’t want to change it. They have lived here since 1938. M: When are we going to get the horse, Mary? I want to go for a ride. W: We’ll go there when we’ve seen everything here. Text 7 W: Can I help you? M: Yes, I’m looking for a flat. W: To buy or to rent? M: Oh, to rent. W: How much do you want to pay? M: About two hundred a month. W: Well, I’ve got one here on Sydney Road. It’s two hundred and fifty a month. M: How big is it? W: It has a kitchen, a bathroom and one bedroom. M: Well, actually, I’d prefer something bigger if possible. W: Yes, I think so. Here’s an interesting one. It’s opposite the park. M: How much is it? W: It’s three hundred a month. It’s the biggest flat we’ve got in this area. M: What’s it like? W: Well, there are two bedrooms, a sitting room, a kitchen and a bathroom. M: It sounds very interesting. Can I go and see it? W: Of course, sir. Can I have your name and address? Text 8 M: Excuse me, can you help me? W: Of course. What can I do for you? M: Can you tell me how I can get to the Excelsior Hotel from here? W: The Excelsior? Let’s see. That’s in the city, right? M: Yes, it is. On Forty-third Street just off Eleventh Avenue. W: Well, you can take a bus to the city. Just go out of the front door of the station and cross the street. There is a sign that says “Airport-City Bus”. Or, you can take a taxi. You can catch one right in front of the terminal. M: Thank you. Oh, do you know how much the bus fare is? W: It’s five dollars. A taxi costs about fifteen or twenty dollars. M: I’d better take a bus then. How often does the bus come? W: I think you just missed one. There is a schedule on the sign outside. I think that the buses run every half-hour or so. M: Maybe I should just take a taxi. I have a lot of luggage and it’s late. Thank you! Text 9 M: Hey Cara! Long time no see. How’s everything? W: Yeah! It’s been a while. I’m doing all right. What about you? M: Great! I’m excited about the Big Game this weekend. Are you going? W: Uh, no. What Big Game? M: Are you kidding? This is the biggest football game of the season! And we’re playing against one of the best school teams in the state, so it’s going to be really exciting. W: Wow, that sounds like fun! Who are you going with? M: A big group of friends... Hey, you know what? One of my friends has to go out of town this weekend and he won’t be able to make it to the game, so I have an extra ticket. You want to join us? W: Sure, I would love to go! I’ve never been to one of our school’s football games before. M: Great! There’s a bus picking students up in front of the teaching building at 1: 00 pm. The game begins 2 hours later. W: Sounds like a plan! Thanks for giving me the extra ticket. I’ll arrive half an hour earlier. M: All right, see you! Text 10 I wasn’t too fond of the lecture classes of 400 students in my general course. Halfway through my second term when I was considering whether or not to come back in the fall, I went on the Internet and came across AmeriCorps. Then I joined in an organization, and that’s what I did last school year. I worked on making roads, building a house, serving as a teacher’s assistant and working as a camp officer in several projects in South Carolina and Florida. It’s been a great experience, and I’ve almost learned more than what I could have in college since I didn’t really want to be at that school and wasn’t interested in my major anyway. I thought this was better for me. After 1, 700 hours of service I received 4, 750 dollars. I can use that to pay off the money I borrowed from the bank or for what I need when I go back to school this fall at Columbus State in Ohio. Classes are smaller there and I’ll be majoring in German education. After working with the kids, now I know, I want to be a teacher. There are good people in this world. Many don’t have the wealth to give, but they do help others. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$院西当代职业中专高二年级5月月考 英语答题卷 考生须知 考 号 1.考生答题前,在规定的地方准确填写考号姓名。 2.选择题作答时,必须用2B铅笔填涂,如需要对答案 行修改,应使用绘图挽皮轻擦干净,注意不要擦破答题 姓 3. 非选择题必须用0.5毫米黑色墨水答字笔作答。严格 名 1 进时,,用来 按照答题要求,在答题卷对应题号指定的答题区域内答 5.保持卷面清洁,不要将答题卷折叠,弄破 墨水答字笔描清楚 (在此处粘贴条形码) 考生 缺考考生,监考结码,的填填准 禁填 选择题 1AIIBJIC] 6]AJIBJIC] 11[AJIBJ]C] 16]AJIBJlIC] 2|AIB]IC] 7[A]]BJIC] 12[AIIBJ]C] 17[A]IBJIC] 3]AJIB]IC] 8[A]|BJ]C] 13[A1IBJIC] 18A]|B]]C] 4|A]|B][C] 9[A]]BJIC] 14[A]]B]]C] 19[A]]B]IC] 5]AJ]B]]C] 10]AJIBJ]]C] 15]AJI_B]]C] 20[AJIB]]C] 21[A]IBlICIID] 26]A]IB]IC]ID] 31]A]IB]ICIID] 36]A]IBJ]CIID]IE]IFlIG 22[AJIB]ICIID 27IAJIBJICIID] 32[A]|B][CI[D 37]A]]BJIC]ID]IE]IFl]G 23]A]IB||ICIID] 28JA|IB]]C]]D] 33]AIIB]]CI|D] 38|A]|IB|]ICI]ID]IEIIFlIG 24|AIIB]ICIID 29]A]]BJ[C]_D] 34[AJIBJ[CIID] 39[A]IB]]C]IDJ]]E]IFJ]G 25]A|IB|ICIID 30[AJIBl|C]ID] 35]A]IB]]C]ID] 40AIIBIICIIDIIEIIFIIG 41|AIIB|ICIID] 46[AIIBlIC]ID] 51]AIIBIICIID 42|A]IB]]CJ[D 47IAIIBIICIID 521AIIBIICIID 43]A]]B][CI[D] 48[A][B]|[C][D] 53[A]]B][C][D] 44|A][B]ICI[D 49[A]IB]IC][D] 54|A]|B|[C]ID] 45|AJIB]]C][D] 50[AJIBJIC]ID] 55]A]]B][C][D] 非选择题 56 57. 58 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 请在各题目的答题区域内作答,超出答题区域的答案无效 请在各题目的答题区域内作答,超出答题区域的答案无效 写作 第一节:书面表达 第二节:读后续写 The next morning, he went to the turner's shop with his horse all complete.
