2 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

To get ahead in the world and lead a happy ____11____ (success) life requires getting on well with other people and ____12____ (be) able to understand and react to situations in the best way possible. A high EQ is necessary for this --- the higher

the better. And the fact that it might be possible to raise EQ ____13____ (mean) that schools need to make sure that their students are receiving an education they really need, not solely based on IQ ____14____on developing the entire character. 【答案解析】 11. successful

12. being 13. means

14. but

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述成功是否来自高情商。

【11题详解】

考查形容词。句意：要想在这个世界上领先并过上幸福成功的生活，需要与他人相处融洽，能够以最好的方式理解并应对各种情况。空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词 life ，success 的形容词为successful“成功的”。故填successful。

【12题详解】

考查动名词。句意：同上。此处并列连词and连接两个并列的宾语，宾语的形式需一致，由空前“ getting on well with other people”可知，空处也需用动名词作动词require

的宾语。故填being。

【13题详解】

考查时态。句意：提高情商是可能的，这意味着学校需要确保他们的学生接受的是他们真正需要的教育，不仅仅是基于智商，而是发展整个性格。分析句子结构可知，此处“that it might be possible to raise EQ”是同位语从句，对名词fact解释说明，所以空处mean“意味着”，动词作谓语；再结合空后宾语从句谓语动词need可知，空处谓语动词需用一般现在时态，空前主语是单数fact，所以空处谓语动词需用单数means。故填means。

【14题详解】

考查连词。句意：同上。由空前“not solely based on IQ”可知，空处需用连词but，not…but…不是……而是……，并列连词，符合题意。故填but。

3 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

A key question is obviously how close to the original the film is. Since a typical film is only around two hours long, it becomes a question for screenwriters to decide ____15____ is appropriate for the screen and what to leave out. Screenwriters take creative liberty and sometimes there may be changes to the plot, additions and even different endings ____16____ (please) producers, directors and test audiences. I, like many people, have often left the cinema ____17____(feel) “the film is not like the book”.

【答案解析】 15. what

16. to please

17. feeling

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍把一本畅销书改编成电影，有很多制约因素和作者对此的看法。

【15题详解】

考查宾语从句。句意：由于一部典型的电影只有两个小时左右的时长，对于编剧来说，决定什么适合在银幕上放映，什么应该省就成了一个问题。分析句子结构可知，空处需用连接词引导宾语从句，从句“is appropriate for the screen”中缺少主语，表示具体的内容，意为“什么”，所以空处需用连接代词what引导宾语从句。故填what。

【16题详解】

考查动词不定式。句意：编剧们发挥自己的创造力，有时可能会对情节进行改变，添加内容，甚至是不同的结局，以取悦制片人、导演和测试观众。本句已有谓语动词take ，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词；结合句意可知，空处需用动词不定式作目的状语，表示“以取悦制片人、导演和测试观众。”故填to please。

【17题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：和许多人一样，我经常从电影院出来时会觉得“电影和书不一样”。本句已有谓语left ，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词作状语；空处动词feel

与主语I之间主动关系，所以空处需用现在分词作伴随状语。故填feeling。

4 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

The Great Wall ____18____ (list) as a World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987. Just like a dragon, it winds up and down ____19____deserts, grasslands and mountains, running about ,196 kilometers from east to west. The construction of the Great Wall was not easy, and Qin Shihuang succeeded in his effort to have the walls joined together. The Great Wall is now one of the most appealing ____20____ (attraction) all around the world.

【答案解析】 18. was listed 19. across 20. attractions

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国长城的一些知识。

【18题详解】

考查被动语态和主谓一致。句意：1987年，长城被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产。由时

间状语in 1987可知，空处谓语动词需用一般过去时，因为长城被列为世界遗产，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时的被动语态：was/were done，主语是专有名词The Great Wall，所以be动词需用单数。故填was listed。

【19题详解】

考查介词。句意：它像一条龙，在沙漠、草原和山脉上蜿蜒而下，从东到西绵延约,196公里。结合句意和句子结构可知，空处需用介词across“从一边到另一边；横过”。故填across。

【20题详解】

考查名词的数。句意：长城现在是世界上最吸引人的景点之一。one of+形容词最高级+可数名词复数，表示“最……之一”，所以空处需用attraction的复数attractions。故填attractions。

6 Huang Danian, the well-known Chinese geophysicist, was born in 1958 in Guangxi, China. As a keen and able student, Huang went to the UK in 1993 to further his studies. By the time Huang moved back to China in 2008, he had been living and working in the UK for 15 years. He had a good job and a life there, but he gave it all up to return to home driven by the idea that he needed to contribute to his country. As one of the world’s leading experts in deep earth exploration technology, Huang was invited to participate in the “Thousand Talent” programme. He took up a position at Jilin University, Changchun.

Huang was named lead scientist on China’s deep earth exploratio n programme, developing advanced cameras that can see through the Earth’s crust(外壳) so that it can be analysed without having to dig into it. He set up an advanced lab, sometimes paying for equipment with his own money. Some described him as a “lunatic” (a “madman”), but this passion and drive enabled Huang to push forwards China’s deep earth exploration technology into a world-leading position. Huang’s devotion contributed to China’s lunar probe(月球探测器) Yutu being landed on the moon in 2013 and the launch of the spacecrafts Shenzhou-11 and Tiangong-2 in 2016. Huang's health also paid the price for his commitment to his work. He began having fainting fits(昏厥) in 2012, but paid them little attention, stating he did not have time to go to see a doctor— his work always came first. In November 2016, Huang fainted and was taken to hospital, where he was diagnosed with cancer. The disease was so advanced that he had just a couple of months to live.

Like the true scientist he was, Huang never gave up, but always tried to push forwards. Even from his hospital bed, he continued his work, writing letters of reference for his colleagues and replying to questions from his students. Huang died in January 2017, aged just 58. More than 800 people attended his funeral to celebrate a life that burned so bright, but was so short.

24. Huang returned to China in 2008 because________.

A. he desired to devote himself to his motherland

B. the “Thousand Talent” program attracted him

C. Jilin University offered him a top position

D. he wasn’t satisfied with the life in the UK

25. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A. China’s aerospace development.

B. Huang’s working attitude and style.

C. Huang’s great contributions to China.

D. China’s deep earth exploration technology.

26. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A. The working environment caused Huang’s disease.

B. Huang worked continuously despite his poor health.

C. Huang was taken to hospital after he fainted in 2012.

D. A large sum of money was paid to treat Huang’s illness.

27. Which of the following can be used to describe Huang Danian?

A. Generous and honest.

B. Passionate and patient.

C. Modest and courageous.

D. Patriotic and committed.

【答案解析】 24 A 25. C 26. B 27. D

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。介绍了中国著名地球物理学家黄大年的生平及他为祖国做出的贡献。

他建立了一个先进的实验室，正是这种激情和动力使黄大年把中国的深地探测技术推向了世界领先的地位。所以第三段主要讲述黄大年对中国做出的巨大贡献。故选C项。

【26题详解】

细节理解题。由倒数第二段“He began having fainting fits(昏厥) in 2012, but paid them little attention, stating he did not have time to go to see a doctor—his work always came first.（在2012年他开始有晕厥发作，但很少注意，说他没有时间去看医生——他

工作总是第一位的。）”及最后一段“Even from his hospital bed, he continued his work, writing letters of reference for his colleagues and replying to questions from his students.（即使躺在病床上，他也继续工作，为同事们写推荐信，回答学生们的问题。）”可知，他虽然患病晕厥住院但仍坚持工作。故选B项。

【27题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段“He had a good job and a life there, but he gave it all up to return to home driven by the idea that he needed to contribute to his country. As one of the world’s leading experts in deep earth exploration technology, Huang was invited to participate in the “Thousand Talent” programme. （他在那里有一份很好的工作和生活，但他放弃了一切回到了家乡，他的想法是他需要为他的国家做贡献。）”可知，黄大年放弃英国的优厚待遇回国为祖国发展尽力，他是爱国的。综合最后两段，他患重病仍坚持工作，教导学生，可知他是敬业的。D项Patriotic（爱国的）committed（敬业的，尽心尽力的）非常准确地形容黄大年。故选D项。

7 Improve Cloud Security

Sensitive customer data has constantly been found exposed on cloud servers without password protection. To ease the problem, database software makers have been trying to make security easier for cloud database managers. At the Enigma Conference in San Francisco, Kenn White, a security manager at database software maker MongoDB, will describe a new technique, called field level encryption, to make data safer on the cloud.

Field level encryption works by scrambling data before it’s sent to a cloud database and rearranging it in order when the data is needed for use. The promise of the product is to protect the contents of a cloud database, even if bad guys access it. MongoDB’s new feature comes as more and more companies move user data to cloud servers, rather than run their own costly data centers. It was predicted that cloud computing would be a $4 billion industry by the end of 2019. That would be up more than 17% from 2018, when it was $182 billion.

Companies have rushed to the cloud without understanding all of the possible security

consequences. Many companies have left countless databases exposed, revealing personal data. A database containing details about who lives in 80 million US households was left unprotected in 2019, just like the data on Facebook users. Database managers want to store their data in an unreadable form, but they also want to be able to find specific pieces of information in the database with a simple search term. For example, someone might want to look up health care patients by their Social Security numbers, even if those numbers are stored as random characters. To make this possible, field level encryption lets database managers encrypt a search term on their machine and send it to the database as a query. The database matches the encrypted version of the search term with the record it’s storing and then sends it back to you.

This approach only works with specific kinds of data. For example, field level encryption isn’t useful for long text entries, like notes in a patient’s medical chart, b ecause you can’t search for individual words.

Still, for data like account numbers, passwords and government ID numbers, field level encryption protects data and maintains a usable database.

Most importantly, White said, it’s simple to set up. Database man agers turn it on with a one-time configuration change when they set up the database. “That’s really powerful,” he said in an interview.

28. The underlined word “scrambling” in paragraph 2 probably means________.

A. mixing

B. collecting

C. hiding

D. storing

29. What can field level encryption do?

A. Secure the safety of Internet pages.

B. Protect files with a unique style of storage.

C. Stop bad guys from accessing the database.

D. Enable companies to store files on the cloud.

30. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Companies should move user data to cloud servers.

B. Cloud computing achieved a 17% increase in 2019.

C. Companies may be unaware of the risks of the cloud.

D No companies were willing to run their own data centers.

31. The author wrote the passage mainly to ________.

A. present some facts

B. offer security advice

C. introduce a technique

D. recommend a product

【答案解析】 28. A 29. B 30. C 31. C

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种名为“字段级加密”的新技术，该技术可以使云计算上的数据更加安全。文章说明了云计算所存在的一些问题以及字段级加密这项技术的一些优势和工作原理。

【28题详解】

词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“before it’s sent to a cloud database and rearranging it in order when the data is needed for use”可知，后文提到在需要使用数据时重新排列数据，说明字段级加密的工作原理是在数据发送到云数据库之前打乱数据，并在需要使用数据时重新排列数据，故画线词意思是“打乱，使混合”。A. mixing使混合；B. collecting收集；C. hiding隐藏；D. storing储存。故选A。

【29题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段中“The promise of the product is to protect the contents of a cloud database, even if bad guys access it.(该产品的承诺是即使有坏人访问数据库，也可以保护云数据库的内容)”可知，字段级加密能以独特的存储方式保护文件。故选B。【30题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段中“Companies have rushed to the cloud without understand ing all of the possible security consequences. Many companies have left countless databases exposed, revealing personal data.(企业在没有了解所有可能的安全后果的情况下，就纷纷涌向云计算。许多公司暴露了无数的数据库，泄露了个人数据)”可推知，公司可能没有意识到云计算的风险。故选C。

【31题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段中“At the Enigma Conference in San Francisco, Kenn White, a security manager at database software maker MongoDB, will describe a new technique, called field level encryption, to make data safer on the cloud.(在旧金山举行的Enigma会议上，数据库软件制造商MongoDB的安全经理Kenn White将介绍一种名为“字段级加密”的新技术，该技术可以使云计算上的数据更加安全)”结合文章主要介绍了一种名为“字段级加密”的新技术，该技术可以使云计算上的数据更加安全。文章说明了云计算所存在的一些问题以及字段级加密这项技术的一些优势和工作原理。可推知，作者写这篇文章主要是为了介绍一项技术。故选C。

What Can We See in a Logo?

We see hundreds of logos on signs, vehicles, websites, and even on the clothes we wear. All of these logos are designed to attract our attention. ____32____ However, recently research supports the idea that remembering what a logo looks like is a

very difficult task.

Researchers gave 85 students a simple assignment to draw the Apple logo purely from memory. Surprisingly, only one student in the study could accurately draw the logo from memory. ____33____ Researchers have developed a theory that they think might help to explain this blind spot in our memories.

Logos are typically designed to be simple and easy to recognize with a quick glance. Yet the frequent exposure to these logos can actually make our brains overlook them. This process is known as “attentional saturation (注意力饱和).” ____34____ Even though the brain is accustomed to ignoring unnecessary details, it is also programmed for recognition. When we see images such as logos over and over again, we become familiar with them. This constant exposure leads to something scientists refer to as gist (梗概) memory. ____35____ This general sense of memory has its own benefits. In fact, familiarity with a popular logo can even make people feel more comfortable about purchasing or using certain products.

Logos are everywhere we look today. A fancy design or a thoughtful color1 combination may be a good start for a logo concept, but there are other factors to consider. ____36____ A clever design may be interesting, but most people will forget the details—especially if our brains have anything to say about it.

A. This may be inspiring to logo designers.

B. People will know the product behind the logo.

C. So why is it so difficult for people to recall the details of images?

D. They also help us remember a product or service connected to that image.

E. It means that our brain remembers the basic idea without all of the details.

F. Our brains actually signal us to ignore information we don’t think we will need to remember.

G. Logo designers need to know that people will only remember what they believe is worthwhile.

【答案解析】 32. D 33. C 34. F 35. E 36. G

【分析】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了在我们的生活中，人们很难准确记住一个标志的细节，并解释了出现这种现象的原因。

【32题详解】

根据空格上句“All of these logos are designed to attract our attention. (所有这些标志都是为了吸引我们的注意力而设计的)”可知，这里介绍的是标志的作用。D项意为“它们还帮助我们记住与该图像相关的产品或服务。”选项内容能够承接上文，进一步介绍

了标志的作用，可以帮助我们记住与该图像相关的产品或服务。故选D。

【33题详解】

根据空格上句“Re searchers gave 85 students a simple assignment to draw the Apple logo purely from memory. Surprisingly, only one student in the study could accurately draw the logo from memory. (研究人员给85名学生布置了一个简单的任务，让他们完全凭记忆画出苹果的标志。令人惊讶的是，研究中只有一个学生能从记忆中准确地画出这个标志)”可知，实验结果表明，人们很难准确记住一个标志的细节。C项意为“那么，为什么

人们很难回忆起图像的细节呢？”选项内容能够承接上文，针对上文的实验结果提出了问题，为什么人们很难回忆起图像的细节呢？且能引出下文将要介绍的关于记忆的理论。故选C。【34题详解】

根据空格上句“Yet the frequent exposure to these logos can actually make our brains overlook them. This process is known as “attentional saturat ion (注意力饱和)”. (然而，频繁接触这些标志实际上会让我们的大脑忽视它们。这个过程被称为“注意力饱和”)”可知，本段介绍了频繁接触标志会造成注意力饱和现象。F项意为“实际上，我们

的大脑发出信号，让我们忽我们认为不需要记住的信息。”选项内容能够承接上文，进一步介绍了什么是“注意力饱和”，是我们的大脑发出信号，让我们忽我们认为不需要记住的信息。故选F。

【35题详解】

根据空格上句“When we see images such as logos over and over again, we beco me familiar with them. This constant exposure leads to something scientists refer to as gist (梗概) memory. (当我们一次又一次地看到诸如标志之类的图像时，我们就会对它们熟悉起来。这种持续的暴露导致了科学家们称之为梗概记忆的东西)”可知，本段介绍了当我们一次又一次地看到诸如标志之类的图像时，我们就会对它们熟悉起来，这种情况被科学家们称为梗概记忆。E项意为“这意味着我们的大脑只记得基本的想法，而不记得所有的细节。”选项内容能够承接上文，进一步介绍了什么是“梗概记忆”，选项中的“It”代指上文中的“gist (梗概) memory”。故选E。

【36题详解】

根据空格上句“A fancy design or a thoughtful color combination may be a good start for a logo concept, but there are other factors to consider. (一个精致的设计或一个深思熟虑的颜色组合可能是一个标志概念的良好开端，但还有其他因素要考虑)”可知，本段介绍了如何才能设计出一个好的标志。G项意为“标志设计师需要知道，人们只会记住他们认为是值得的。”选项内容能够承接上文，是对标志设计师提出的一个建议，要想设计出一个好的标志，需要知道人们只会记住他们认为是值得的东西，“人们只会记住他们认为是值得的”正是上文提到的“其他因素”之一。故选G。

北京市海淀区2020-2021学年高二下学期期中考试语文试题(有答案) 北京市海淀区2020-2021学年下学期期中考试高二语文试题 有答案） 2021.04 一、本大题共5小题，共16分。 阅读下面材料，完成1~5题。 材料一 正像XXX发现有机界的发展规律一样，XXX发现了人类历史的发展规律，即历来为繁笼丛杂的意识形态所掩盖着的一个简单事实:人们首先必须吃、喝、住、穿，然后才能从事政治、科学、艺术、宗教等等;所以，直接的物质的生活资料的生产，从而一个民族或一个时代的一定的经济发展阶段，便构成基础，人们的国家设施、法的观点、艺术以至宗教观念，就是从这个基础上发展起来的，因而，也必须由这个基础来解释，而不是像过去那样做得相反。 XXX还发现了现代资本主义生产方式和它所产生的资产阶级社会的特殊的运动规律。

由于剩余价值的发现，这里就豁然开朗了，而先前无论资产阶级经济学家或者社会主义批评家所做的一切研究都只是在黑暗中摸索。 一生中能有这样两个发现，该是很够了。即使只能作出一个这样的发现，也已经是幸福的了。但是XXX在他所研究的每一个领域，甚至在数学领域，都有独到的发现，这样的领域是很多的，而且其中任何一个领域他都不是浅尝辄止。 他作为科学家就是这样。可是这在他身上远不是主要的。在XXX看来，科学是一种在汗青上起推举措用的、革命的气力。任何一门理论科学中的每一个新发觉——它的实践使用也许还根本没法预见——都使XXX感到衷心高兴，而当他看到那种对工业、对一般汗青发展立刻发生革命性影响的发觉的时候，他的高兴就非同平常了。比方，他曾经密切凝视电学方面各种发觉的进展情形，不久以前，他还密切凝视XXX的发觉。 因为XXX首先是一个革命家。他终生的真正使命，就是以这种或那种方式参加推翻资本主义社会及其所树立的国度办法的事业，参加现代无产阶级的束缚事业，恰是他第一次使现代无产阶级意想到自身的地位和需要，意想到自身束缚的前提。斗争是他的生命要素。很少有人像他那样满腔热忱、坚固不拔和行之有效地进行斗争。
