浙江省杭州市七县（市、区）2018-2019学年高二上学期期末检测英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Scott Halley was a farmer...until a year ago. But the farm kept losing money. “You look at the numbers at the end of the pencil.” said Mr. Halley, 44, “and you realize it’s time to try something different.”With a heavy heart but a clear head, Mr. Halley became one of the thousands of American farmers who sell their land each year. What surprised Mr. Halley and others is that the move to the city was so easy. The farmers are finding jobs and their families are enjoying the city way of life.Mr. Halley found a good job working as a scientist at North Dakota State University. His salary is now twice what it was when he was a farmer.But even for those farmers who find good jobs, there is a price to pay in leaving farming.“It’s not just about making money but about the other rewards that farming can bring...working land your parent’s parents worked, spending your days in nature, caring for animals,” said Dr Michael Rosmann, a farmer and psychologist who helps farmers. “For most of them, that pain lasts for the rest of their lives. To make the decision to quit farming, to do what’s best for the family, takes an awful lot of courage.” Mr. Halley feels the pull of the land every day. Once a week, he drives eight hours to work a small piece of his old farm.It was hard to leave, but Mr. Halley knows he did the right thing. For most families that leave the land, salary goes up and the stress from having little money goes down. Both parents and children are happier.Halley’s children love living in the city.“The kids don’t want to go back now,” said Mr. Halley. “The telephone never stops ringing.”Megan Halley, 13, spoke with excitement about her new school. She especially likes art and computer technology. “Back on the farm,” she said. “the old phone system took five minutes or more just to dail up the Internet.”“It’s cool here,” said Megan. “She loves going to the nearby mall to shop for new clothes and get the latest CDs of her favorite group.” The closest store to the Halley’s farm was a10-mile drive.Before moving to the city, Megan worried about getting along with city kids.“The boys here aren’t any different than back in the country,” she said, “There’s just a lot more of them.”1．Why Mr. Halley decide to quit farming one year ago?A．He didn’t like farming any longer.B．He found a more satisfactory job in the city.C．He can hardly make money to support his family.D．It is not so convenient to live on the farm.2．Why does Mr. Halley drive back to his old farm once a week？A．To keep his connection to the land.B．To appreciate the beautiful scenery. C．To do a part-time job to earn more money.D．To relax himself from work. 3．According to Megan, what words can be used to describe the life in the country? A．Comfortable and peaceful.B．Inconvenient and boring.C．Easy and worthwhile.D．Busy and meaningful.US food author M.F. K. Fisher once wrote about humans, “First we eat, then we do everything else.”This is why each year we celebrate World Food Day, which falls on Oct. 16. But despite the importance of food around the world, food cultures often differ greatly from country to country. For example, things like chicken feet, duck heads, and pig brains are commonly eaten in Asia. If you asked most Westerners to try one of these things, though, the very thought would probably be enough to make them give up meat altogether.At the same time, however, the majority of people in Western nations regard themselves as meat eaters. So, what could be the reason behind this double standard?There are a number of possible answers to that question, yet one major reason could lie in recent cultural changes. During the mid-20th century and the years following it, eating most parts of an animal was common in many Western countries such as the UK—perhaps owing to rationing(定量配给) as a result of World War(1939-1945).But later, during the 1960s and 70s, following the introduction of highways in the US and the UK, the popularity of supermarkets in those countries increased, wrote Francesco Burnett, author of Cultural History of Meat: 1900-The Present.Thanks to the popularity and convenience of supermarkets which tend not to sell animal parts such as the head or limbs(四肢), the public’s attitude of meat soon shifted. “The ‘animal’ gradually disappeared from meat, and people’s ignorance about what animal the meat they ate came from increased.” Burnett added.As a result, it’s believed that many Western cultures slowly began to view meat as simply a food product, rather than as something that came from an animal.However, this theory may go even further back if we look at the words the English language uses to describe meat. “We ‘de-animalize’ certain foods that we eat by giving them different names,” Hal Herzog, author of Why It’s So Hard To Think Straight About Animals, told online magazine Grist. “We don’t say it’s cooked pig; we say it’s pork. And we don’t say hamburger is made of cow; we say it’s made of beef.”So it seems that there’s not one simple answer to this question. When it comes to eating meat, however, perhaps we should simply just enjoy the taste.4．The main purpose of the first three paragraphs is to ________.A．introduce various food culturesB．stress Westerners’ love for foodC．show differences in Chinese and Western food culturesD．draw attention to Westerners ‘de-animalizing’ meat5．What changed people’s attitudes toward meat in the 1960s and 1970s?A．The words used to describe meat.B．The rise of supermarkets.C．The need for a healthier lifestyle.D．The introduction of highways. 6．What does the underlined word “ignorance” mean in Paragraph 6？A．Blindness.B．Fear.C．Misunderstanding.D．Challenging.What makes a human being? Is it our thoughts? Our emotions? Our behavior?All of these things make us who we are, but at the center of the matter is the genome(基因组) the genes inside our bodies that may determine everything from our hair color to our intelligence. But if we could change our genome, what would it mean to us?In an online video posted on Nov. 26, He Jiankui, a biological researcher from Southern University of Science and Technology in China, said that he had helped to make the world’s first genetically edited babies.These are twin girls, born in November, with genes edited in an attempt to help them resist possible future infection with the AIDS virus.He said that he chose to do this because HIV infections are a big problem in China. “I feel such a strong responsibility that it’s not just to make a first, but also to set an example,” He told the Associated Press(AP).The announcement has caused an international storm.Some believe that success will benefit the families of HIV patients. Given that HIV is “a major and growing public health threat,” attempted gene editing for HIV is “justifiable(无可非议的),” Harvard Medical School genetics professor George Church told AP.However, others think that since gene editing technology is still premature, it is unsafe to attempt it.“Gene editing itself is experimental and is still associated with unexpected mutations(突变), capable of causing genetic problems early and later in life, including the development of cancer.” Julian Savulescu, a specialist in ethics(伦理学) at the University of Oxford, told BBC News.Others fear that this could open the door to using gene editing technology to make designer babies. It might give the parents the options to choose everything from their baby’s eye color to intelligence.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest ‘upgrades’(升级) for their children, leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,” Marcy Darnovsky, director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics, told BBC News.However, Merlin Crossley, a biologist at the University of New South Wales, Australia, believes that’s a long way off . According to him, many genes produce qualities like height and intelligence—not to mention environmental influences.And he believes the technology will be better controlled in the future.“It’s hard to get genies(妖怪) back into bottles... but I’m optimistic that this technology, which I think of as ‘genetic surgery’, could be regulated quite effectively in the future,” Crossley told BBC News.7．According to the passage, which of the four statements is correct?A．The twin girls with genes edited will not be infected with AIDS.B．He Jiankui found a way to cure people of AIDS.C．The genetically edited babies have aroused a heated debate.D．It makes no sense to edit genes.8．Who shares the same idea with Julian Savulescu?A．He Jiankui.B．George Church.C．Merlin Crossley.D．Marcy Darnovsky.9．What can we infer from the underlined sentence “that’s a long way off”?A．People will finally accept gene editing, but it takes time.B．In the future gene editing will surely benefit people.C．It will take a long time before gene editing succeeds.D．There is much research to do on gene editing.10．Which is the most suitable title for the passage？A．Gene Editing: A Trend for the FutureB．Is Gene Editing the Way we should Go？C．Can Gene Editing Free People of Future Diseases？D．Gene Editing: Genies out of Bottles二、七选五Finishing my high school life in Canada, I started classes at the University of Toronto at the beginning of September and soon I found that there are lots of differences between Canadian high schools and universities.____11____ Although high schools in Canada also need students to choose courses by themselves, most of the students have the same compulsory (必修的) classes, and the options (选择) are quite limited. For university students, almost everyone has different classes, as the classes one takes depend on one’s major. ____12____ There are hundreds of majors that students can choose from, and each major has at least three or four compulsory classes each year. Do the math and you’ll be surprised by how many options students have.Each class has a maximum student number, usually between 100 to 300.____13____The university will assign (分派) a certain time for students to select classes on the course-enrolling website. So everything depends on one’s luck and fortune.Even if a student doesn’t successfully enroll in the classes that he or she wants, they can still be on the waitlist. If someone drops a class, another student will automatically (自动地) be enrolled (注册). ____14____Usually, there are two parts to most classes, the lecture and the tutorial (辅导课). Lectures usually have more than 100 students, and the instructors are the professors. For tutorials, they’re always run by teacher assistants, usually master’s or PhD students. Tutorials contain at most 30 students, and that’s where quizzes and discussions take place.____15____ For instance, my philosophy professor asks us to finish one book every week, which is the hardest thing for me to do right now.A．Take my university for example.B．To me, the biggest difference is the course selection system.C．There is a saying that goes, “If you are at ease with yourself in the world, the world will be at ease with you.”D．The biggest challenge for a freshman in Canada is how to get on well with the teacher assistants.E．Since universities in Canada have a longer summer holiday, the semesters are quite short, which means the progress of the class is very fast.F．The limited number of students means that some students may not be enrolled in the classes that they want to get into.G．Therefore, the university suggests that everyone should have a plan B in case something goes wrong.三、完形填空In my younger years, my mother gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in myAfter chatting for only 20 minutes, our friendship took ____24____. We exchanged phone numbers and left ____25____ our separate bus journeys after breakfast. ____26____, afterwards, we reunited with each other again and again in different cities in the UK.Taeko is an elegant and friendly lady who always speaks to people in a ____27____ voice. Although there’s a huge age difference between us, we still ____28____ many interests. Taeko told me her husband was a ____29____ in American literature at the University of Tokyo. They met one another at a party in their 20s, with a mutual love for literature____30____ them together.But ____31____, her husband passed away 18 years ago, and Taeko has remained____32____ since then. She produces films, runs marathons, travels around the world and makes global friends. You can never tell ____33____ she will be tomorrow.Once, I asked her if she ever felt lonely, ____34____ she said she never did.____35____, she feels fulfilled. She’s been doing exactly what she likes to do: be happy. 16．A．Travel B．Read C．Study D．Relax 17．A．Because B．Since C．So D．Although 18．A．behavior B．habit C．routine D．experience 19．A．which B．when C．that D．where 20．A．boat B．train C．bus D．plane 21．A．rare B．common C．usual D．regular 22．A．gesture B．conversation C．occupation D．action 23．A．when B．before C．after D．while 24．A．root B．interest C．time D．care 25．A．apart B．off C．away D．for 26．A．Eventually B．Actually C．Interestingly D．Additionally 27．A．gentle B．loud C．clear D．low 28．A．follow B．have C．take D．share 29．A．driver B．doctor C．professor D．writer 30．A．bringing B．finding C．joining D．meeting 31．A．unbelievably B．unfortunately C．surprisingly D．unexpectedly 32．A．lonely B．positive C．single D．optimistic 33．A．who B．when C．what D．where 34．A．but B．and C．or D．yet35．A．Instead B．However C．Besides D．Therefore四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料, 在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

第I卷（选择题）一、阅读理解A family watching a dolphin from their boat were shocked when it dropped them off a cod (鳕鱼) supper for dinner.The group were enjoying watching the mammal playing in the water when it suddenly dived down and caught the cod before placing it near to Lucy Watkins, 14.The dolphin then appeared and began pulling the fish towards the stunned teenager. Lucy and her grandparents wondered whether they should pick up the fish in case the dolphin wanted it for tea.But the dolphin then appeared seconds later with his own fish, this time a seabass (石斑鱼), and began eating. The family gratefully accepted the cod, which weighed about 10 pounds, before taking it home to cook for their dinner.Lucy said, “He definitely wanted me to have his fish. He first dropped it 20 feet away but then pushed it to within 5 feet of my boat. Everyone was watching on the beach and we caused quite a stir (激动) when we came back with the cod.”Grandmother Nina added, “It was as if he was saying to Lucy ‘Don’t worry, now I’ve got a fish to play with and so have you. This is mine for my tea; you have that one for yours.’ ”“He was just so playful and content to be around us. Lucy was swinging her fingers in the water and he seemed to be attracted by that.”“If I hadn’t seen it myself, I’d never have believed it. My theory is that he was l onely and wanted human company. He was with us for about two hours.”“It seemed rude to refuse him so we took the fish and had cod and chips for supper. It was very large. I’ve still got half in the freezer.”A spokesman from Whale and Dolphin Conservation said, “This is a very interesting account. There are many examples worldwide of dolphins interacting with humans. We would just make our usual appeal for people to generally keep their distance.”1．What does the underlined word “stunned” probably mean?A．Astonished. B．Upset.C．Disappointed. D．Worried.2．Why didn’t the family accept the cod at once?A．Because Lucy’s grandparents didn’t like cods.B．Because they were not sure whether it was a gift for them.C．Because they didn’t know how clever the dolphin was.D．Because they wanted to change for another one.3．According to the text, we can infer that __________.A．Lucy was afraid when she first saw the dolphinB．Grandmother didn’t believe what the dolphin had doneC．the fish was delicious so they kept a half in the freezerD．dolphins should be given their own living spaceThe foldable smartphone was shown for the first time on Wednesday during a Samsung developer’s conference in San Francisco, California. The company first announced plans to build a fully foldable phone five years ago.The phone is designed to fold open to make the device the size of a small tablet. It can also perform some operations of a tablet. When folded closed, the device looks and works like a normal smartphone. The device will permit users to keep up to three apps open at one time. With normal size smartphones, users have to keep changing between apps.Justin Dension is Samsung’s senior vice president. He introduced the device to people at the conference. He said it marked a major breakthrough in future smartphone technology. Denison said the design of the foldable device was very complex. One of the biggest difficulties was finding a material that was not only flexible but also strong enough to support repeated folding and unfolding of the device. Denison said Samsung would be ready to start mass production in the coming months.Technology experts see the new foldable design as a way to get users to buy a new device seen as revolutionary. More people are deciding to hold onto smartphones longer becausenewly launched models do not offer major improvements and can be very costly. This behavior is one reason for a steady decrease in worldwide smartphone sales over the past year.It remains to be seen whether foldable phones will become popular quickly. The device is expected to cost more than $1,000. The company has not yet announced when its FlexPai device will be available in America. But it is planning to launch the product in China starting next month, at a price of about $1,300.4．What did Samsung company do on Wednesday in San Francisco?A．It announced plans to build a foldable phone.B．It introduced its foldable phone to the public.C．It started to sell its foldable phone in America.D．It held a conference to deal with new challenges.5．What can we learn about the foldable smartphone?A．It can run only one app at a time.B．The material for it was hard to find.C．It is popular worldwide now.D．It will take the place of the tablet.6．What does the underlined part “This behavior” in Par agraph 4 refer to?A．Recycling their old smartphones.B．Repairing their old smartphones.C．Keeping their old smartphones.D．Replacing their old smartphones.7．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A brochure. B．A newspaper.C．A research paper. D．A shopping guidebook.For the soldiers, the true technological hero may be the body armor (盔甲).Capable of stopping most bullets, the body armor worn by all of the troops is being trusted for saving many lives. Soldiers shot at close range are walking away with no more than broken ribs (肋骨).While the newest smart bombs get more attention, improvements in soldiers’ armor are improving safety on the battlefield. The new body armor in particular, may help reduce deaths in the firefights.In addition to the lighter and more protective body armor, soldiers now wear more comfortable, stronger helmets.“Everything they have is much better,” says Robert Kinney, director of individual protection at the Army’s Soldier Center in Natick, Mass. “It means an increase i n their quality of life.”The new equipment is a result of years of research and development at the lab.The new body armor, named “the interceptor”, is similar to but stronger than ones worn by the police. It can also protect the neck. Two other plates are put into it and cover vital organs. As a result, far fewer deaths arrive at military hospitals with abdomen (腹部) or, chest wounds, says Air Force Maj. Mark Ervin, a surgeon at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. “That’s remarkable,” Maj. Er vin says.Altogether it weighs 16 pounds, one-third lighter than the previous armor that protects only against shrapnel (弹片) but couldn’t stop bullets. The lighter weight is a welcome improvement for soldiers already carrying 100 to 120 pounds of gear.Sol diers’ helmets have also been improved since the first Gulf War. They also offer more protection. They are capable of stopping handgun or small machine gun rounds, but nothigh-powered shots.8．Why is the body armor regarded as a hero?A．It’s able to stop all the bullets. B．It saves a hero soldier’s life.C．It prevents rib injuries effectively. D．It reduces deaths among soldiers. 9．Which of the following best describes the new body armor?A．Stronger. B．Heavier.C．More expensive. D．More attractive.10．What is the main idea of the text?A．The new body armor is able to stop most bullets.B．The new body armor has saved many lives on the battlefield.C．Soldiers are equipped with improved body armors and helmets.D．Helmets are as important as the body armor to soldiers.二、完形填空Jadav Payeng, an Indian, has been planting a tree every day since he was just 16 years old.Now, almost 40 years later, he has created a 11 of 1,360 acres on what was once a12 land.Growing up on Majuli, the world’s largest river island, he once 13 hundreds of animals dying from drought among the 14 greenery on the island, so he was 15 to plant one tree every day.After almost four 16 of growth, his forest is now home to hundreds of elephants, tigers, deer and birds. Payeng says he has lost 17 of how many trees he has planted—but he 18 there are now thousands of trees providing 19 to the wildlife.“It’s not as if I did it 20 ,” Payeng said. “You plant one or two trees, and they have to seed. And once they seed, the wind knows how to plant them, the birds here know how to 21 them, cows know, elephants 22 , and even the river knows. The entire 23 knows.”Island locals used to call Payeng “crazy” for his 24 , but since he was accidentally 25 by a wandering wildlife journalist in 2007, the “Forest Man of India” has been 26 as a role model for protecting the environment.Payeng doesn’t plan on 27 any time soon—he wants to continue planting trees “until his last 28 ”. He hopes to one day 29 the entire island with 5,000 acres of trees. “Nature is everything. It 30 me.

Read everything you can. Most writers are good readers. They read because they love to lose themselves in books. They like the sounds of language and the way that reading a good description can feel as satisfying as winning a race or eating really good food. 31．. Do you like stories that are fast-paced and full of unexpected twists? Do you prefer to read books with characters who seem like someone you might know? Do you like to feel scared or do you like a story that makes you laugh until you cry? Think about the types of writing you like best, and try to identify the qualities that attract you.2. 32．It’s easy to forget a good idea if you do not record it immediately. If you get in the habit of carrying a notebook or journal with you everywhere you go, you can write down anything you want to remember. When you are talking to friends in the cafeteria or waiting for the bus, something might give you an idea for a character or a scene in a story. You might havea dream you don’t want to forget, or you might just write down the lyrics of a song you love. 33．3. Do your homework. If you decide that you would like to submit your work for publication, make sure you do your research. If you are sending your writing to a magazine, look through old issues. 34．If you are submitting to a book publisher, explore their website to make sure your material is similar to (but not exactly the same as) other books they publish.4. Stay positive. A writer’s life can be frustrating.

"I came out of the house one morning,and he threw his ball toward the fence," she said. "I got my cane,and I reached over the fence and hit the ball toward him,and he'd throw it back.That's how it started."When the weather turned cold,the two were unable to meet in the yard as regularly.But Benjamin's mother,Sarah,kept the friendship alive by often stopping by Mary's house with the kid.The friendship between the two has developed even further since Mary got vaccinated（接种疫苗）earlier this year.The two give each other hi-fives across the fence and often sit outside Mary's house.This spring,Mary and Benjamin gifted each other with their favorite. Benjamin now goes to daycare three times a week.But he still regularly makes time to visit hisbest friend who he refers to as "Mimi". "Friendship really knows no boundaries," Sarah said. "Certainly,you wouldn't guess that a 99-year-old and a 2-year-old would be friends,but they can be.And they both get a lot out of it."4.What can we learn about Mary and Benjamm from paragraph 2？______A. They became neighbors.B. They were stuck at home.C. They had to live alone.D. They wandered around freely.5.What promoted the friendship between Mary and Benjamin？______A. Waving each other.B.

The shutdown has resulted in great inconvenience.CBeethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians.He completed 722 musicalworks.Unfortunately,the master died while still working on his 10th Symphony（交响曲）.Now,a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence （AI）to complete the artist's final composition.Dr.Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019.He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven's 250th birthday in December 2020.He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task.They included music composer Walter and Dr.Ahmed,the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market.Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music,and then,narrowed it to just Beethoven'swork.Meanwhile,Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven's plans for the 10th Symphony.The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes fromthe unfinished composition.To stay true to Beethoven's original composition,Ahmed's team sent Walter hundreds of Ai-generated musical note variations every evening.Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written.The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions.And piece by piece,the team was able to complete Beethoven's 10th Symphony! The composition was firstly released on October 9，2021.Not surprisingly,it caused some controversy（争议）.Critics believe technology should not be used to replicate the human creative process.Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans - it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.8.What is the purpose of the writer in writing paragraph 1？______A. To voice his greatest respect for Beethoven.B. To compare traditional music and AI music.C. To present the team of music experts' hard work.D. To introduce an innovative method to create music.9.Which can be used to best describe the team's work？______A. Inspiring.B. Steady.C. Challenging.D. Boring.10.What does the underlined word "replicate" in the last paragraph mean？______A. Question.B. Copy.C. Direct.D. Speed.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text？______A. Beethoven's 10 Symphonies Is Eventually StagedB. AI Helps Complete Beethoven's Unfinished SymphonyC. A Team of Experts Conduct a Mission ImpossibleD. A Controversial Way Successfully Interprets Beethoven's MusicDOn August 8，2021，the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change （IPCC）released its first assessment of climate science since 2013.The news was not good.The report stated that this past decade was the hottest in 125，000 years and that the atmospheric carbon levels are the highest in at least 2 million years.Glaciers are melting faster than any time in over 2，000 years,and ocean levels are rising at twice the rate since 2006.At the current pace,the researchers expect global temperatures to rise by at least 1.5°，compared to pre-industrial levels,within the next 20 years.The temperature increases will result in significant changes to the planet's water cycle.Areas that currently receive a lot of rain will getsignificantly more,while dry regions will become increasingly likely to droughts.The IPCC's findings come as no surprise to the millions of people worldwide currently feeling the impacts of climate-related disasters.America and many European countries are battling wildfires.Meanwhile,an unprecedented（史无前例的）week-long storm in July 2021 caused flash floods and mudslides in Western Europe.Climate change is even impacting the Earth's coldest and most remote regions which experienced the first rainfall event in recorded history. The situation may sound hopeless.However,many experts believe it is still not too late to turn things around,if we all act now.While governments need to do their share by introducing and obey stricter carbon emission laws,individuals can also help.Driving less,conserving water,and reducing electricity usage are some great ways to start.Reduce,Reuse and Recycle will help conserve natural resources and energy.It will also save you and your community.Be sure to start doing your part to save our beautiful home today!12.Why did IPCC release its first assessment of climate science？______A. To appeal to people to reduce carbon levels.B. To state the earth's temperature hits a record high.C. To inform readers climate change is severe.D. To report ocean levels are rising higher.13.What may lead to great changes to the planet's water cycle？______A. The rise of global temperatures.B. The fast development of industry.C. The heavy rainfall of the earth.D. The terrible droughts in dry regions.14.What is paragraph 3 mainly about？______A. Effects of climate change.B. Facts of rainfall disasters.C. Losses caused by natural disasters.D. Weather phenomena in many regions.15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph？______A. Fighting against climate change is relatively simple.B. Stricter carbon emission laws has been tightened up.C. The author is opposed to consuming natural resources.D. The author urges immediate action on climate change.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）Every year,natural disasters affect about 250 million people and global warming is making droughts and floods more common.

I like spending more time with my family and less time at work an d getting paid for it,” said the mother of three.Hard Plastics is part of a growing number of US companies that are experimenting with the so-called “30/40” plan to replace the 40-hour working week.Unlike in Europe, where cutting the working week is seen as a way to reduce unemployment, US companies see the 30/40 program mainly as a tool to increase productivity.At the Hard Plastics plant, some 150 women employees work 6-hour daily for a 30-hour working week. And if they show up every day on time, they receive a 10-hour bonus for the week.“But if you’re even one minute late, sorry Charlie, no bonus,” said Ronald Ronald Richey, the company’s president.“We’re in a very low unemployment market here, 2.5 percent for the town—Whitley,” said Ronald Richey. “T he idea was to draw more qualityapplicants(申请表).”With 30/40, the company, which employs 325 people at two plants in Indiana and has yearly sales of US $30 million, has greatly broadened its applicant pool. Some 40 people apply every week, among them many with long years of work experience or even college degrees.The idea was first put forward by industrial psychologist(心理学家) Ron Healey. He said more and more companies were expressing interest in his program and were even testing it.49. According to the text, what is the “30/40” program?A. An employee works 30 hours a week with 40 hours’ pay.B. An employee works for 10 hours extra every week and gets paid.C. A woman employee with a family has the right to work 30 hours a week.D. A woman employee gets paid even if she stays at home during work hours.50. A “30/40 plan” is being tested in Hard Plastics with an aim to _____.A. let working women enjoy their family lifeB. improve employees’ working conditionsC. reduce unemployment in WhitleyD. raise the company’s productivity51. What would be the best title for the text?A. Hard Plastics: a worker’s paradiseB. US: shorter week produces moreC. 30/40 program: a better way to reduce unemploymentD. Ron Healey: his contribution to industrial psychologyCThe other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 -8:30pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00pm or 8:30pm means possible dinner, but 9:30pm and any time there after means no food, oat beforehand, roll up late.But this is not always the case. If asked to a students' party at 6:30pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive - looking eager - is social death. When my mother is asked to a party for 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no laterthan seven. My age group （late thirties） falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we're young, we're probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.The accepted custom at present is confusing, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element （成分） of surprise.52. The underlined words "off their heads" probably mean______.A. tiredB. crazyC. sleepyD. pleased53. Jane and David' s story is used to show that______ .A. party-goers usually get hungry at partiesB. party invitations can be confusingC. people should ask for food at partiesD. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull54. According to the writer, people in their late thirties_______.A. are likely to arrive late for a partyB. care little about the party timeC. haven' t really grown up yetD. like surprises at parties阅读第二节：在第55-59 题中, Jackson, Anna及两个孩子，David, Bob一家，Black 夫妇都想寻求一家宾馆。

He was sitting by a fence and he was very dirty, no longer white, more of a dirty brown colour. His fur was in a mess and having an extremely bad smell, and he even had a skin disease on a ragged torn ear. He was frighteningly thin. I called his name as I scooped him into my arms. He pushed his dirty face into mine. I teared up with happiness because I had found my cat.I turned around and carried him home. He settled comfortably in my arms and made a quiet continuous soft sound all the way. When we got home, I refilled his bowls with food and water and set up his litter box. I hold him close in my arms some more and then phoned to tell my boss I was on my way, promising to make up the time I had missed. I had another quick snuggle with my cat, washed up, grabbed my bags, and ran to catch the next bus.1。

AWhen Sophia was 2 years old, a butterfly landed on her. After that she was absorbed in insects. In addition to loving to read about insects and have her mom search information online about them to read to her. Sophia loves live ones. “If she keeps an insect, she always names it and will talk to them and kiss them.” Spencer. Sophia's mom said “When she has one, she always makes sure to learn what it eats and what the best habitat for it is.” Sophia's love for insects used to get her bullied(霸凌) by kids of her age.Afraid that being called “strange” would cause Sophie to lose her enthusiasm, Spencer wrote a letter to a scientific society last year, explaining that her 8-year-old daughter loved to learn and explore the world of insects and asked if professional entomologist(昆虫学家) would be willing to speak to her over the phone or write her letter encouraging her in her dreams.After an outpouring of love and support from the scientific community online, she has a newfound confidence in her scientific interest-along with her first byline(署名) in a scientific journal. Last August, the Society posted the letter online, writing, “A young girl who loves insects is being bullied needs our support”. In response, entomologists from all over the world reached out in support of Sophia and offering their time and resources.Besides, Sophia took lessons from Morgan, an entomology Ph.D. “Last week she caught a fly and it had babies. Morgan called her to walk her through the process of raising the young insects, which she plans to set free after they are adults. We are now proud of the owner of over a 100 babies in an insect container. She feeds them food every day and is attracted by the rapid development that is happening,” she added.1. What do we know about Sophia from Paragraph 1?A. She was frightened of butterflies.。
