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(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

While CCTV?s educational show Animal World is well known, few big

screen wildlife documentaries have been made by China?s film industry.

But Born in China, which came out on Aug 2, may be important for

Chinese filmmakers who want to get into nature -themed films. The movie,

directed by Chinese filmmaker Lu Chuan, was shot in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

and shows the animals? lives during different seasons.

Born in China not only brings to audiences the lives of animals that are

rarely seen in the wild—giant pandas, snow leopards, and golden monkeys, but

also shows Chinese traditional culture.

A symbol of China, the giant panda is both black and white. Its body is

thought to show yin and yang, which ancient Chinese ideas were based on. The panda?s gentle nature shows how yin and yang lead to peace. It can be seen in the film when a panda mother guides her baby to look for independence and explore the world.

Unlike the shy pandas, monkeys always have strong personalities. T he Monkey King in China?s most famous novel Journey to the West has many conflicting traits(特点). It stands for not only impatience but also cleverness and energy. Born in China follows a 2-year-old golden monkey who leaves his family, but then returns and understands the meaning of responsibility.

Just as the golden monkey, a mother snow leopard also faces difficulty in raising her babies in the wild. The leopards, known for their rapid attacks and quick footwork(脚步), have inspired a form of pictographic(象形拳) in Shaolin martial arts(武术).

“Born in China is a means to show off Chinese traditional culture,” director Lu told the reporter. “Chinese people have learned a lot from wild animals since ancient times. This is why I shot this nature -themed documentary.”

21. How is Born in China special according to the article?

A. It shows Chinese traditional culture through the lives of animals.

B. It?s considered the best nature-themed film to come out of China.

C. It?s the first big screen wildlife documentary ever made in China.

D. It shows audiences the lives of rare animals.

22. We can learn from the article that in Born in China, _______.

A. the story of the giant pandas shows the importance of exploring the world

B. the story of the golden monkeys was inspired by the Monkey King

C. the stories show how animals grow up to be independent

D. the story about snow leopards shows what people can learn from animals

23. What may be the best title for the text?

A. The stories of 3 animal famil ies

B. Symbols of China

C. Wildlife born in China

D. Nature shows culture

B

One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.

“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clot hes and they don?t fit. People get very unhappy.”

Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtua l (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Ko ng and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, …The color is wrong? or …I got the right size but it still does not fit.? We want to make it like you?re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.

Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong?s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper?s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.

Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”

24. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?

A. Students may easily get addicted to it.

B. Clothes bought online may not fit.

C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.

D. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.

25.Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.

A. their shopping experiences

B. a program at their university

C. some shop-owners? complaints

D. the Xbox 360 video game player

26.Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?

A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images

B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning

C. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes

D. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanning

27.What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?

A. It is perfectly developed.

B. It will have its market share.

C. It is limited to women shoppers.

D. It is like a kind of video game player.

Reader:For six years, I?ve run an office that has two employees: me and my boss. He used to be so appreciative that I didn?t mind doing a little extra, but about two month s ago, he started being rude and demanding. Now he even yells when I don?t have time to bring his favorite wine to his home after work.

This change started when we met a wealthy new customer, who is a huge jerk (古怪的人) -- my boss?s new behavior is just like his.

My boss is a good man; he and his family have treated me like a little sister. Is there a good way to discuss this with him?

Karla: Sounds like your new customer has set a bad example to your boss. You ne ed to remind your boss that you?re in his corner-- but you?re not his slave. My suggestions are as follows.

Start with a simple question in a calm moment: “Is everything okay?”

State the truth: “Until recently, I?ve felt like a valued teammate. But our rel ationship has become tense. Your expectations of me seem to have changed. Although I used to do occasional personal businesses for you as a favor, now it seems expected.”

Draw your lines: “If you think my job description needs to change or my performance is not good enough, let?s discuss

that. Otherwise, I need you to stop yelling at me and to respect my personal time.”

Ideally, you?ll get an apology and a promise to do better. After that, it?s a matter of reinforcement (加强) . If he starts yelling, look at him with a calm expression. After he cools down, restate his request and add, “Is that correct?” For the unreasonable request, such as fetching his favorite wine after work: “I?m afraid I can?t take care of that for you.” If he keeps acting like a jerk, there are bosses out there who will better respect your time and talent.

Nearly 19 percent of teachers of color(有色人种教师) left their jobs after the 2014-2015 school year. Some left for personal reasons like taking care of their families. But 50 percent said they left because they were dissatisfied with their employment situation, such as poor working conditions, student discipline problems and large class sizes. Thus, taking immediate measures to improve it is our top priority.

For years, researchers have proved the benefits of increasing the share of minority teachers in schools, especially as our public school system has turned to one that is made up mostly of minority students. Teachers of color, who are more likely than their white counterparts to choose to work in racially diverse(多种多样的) schools, offer particular benefits to their students. Graduation rates increase among minority students when they are taught by racially similar educators, research shows. They can also serve as positive role models, and their presence reduces the chance of racial discrimination at school.

The Shanker Institute report suggests that the rate of minority teacher hiring is not the whole problem. The problem is what happens after these teachers enter the classroom. These teachers often work in high-poverty rural schools. They are more likely to have less-desirable working conditions.

Diversity is a key component to equality and opportunity. Where there?s a diverse teaching workforce, all kids thrive. So solutions must be found at once to turn this trend around. Firstly, schools should develop mentorship programs that support minority teachers once they are in the classroom. Secondly, more money should be spent in improving working conditions in these schools. Of course, school headmasters should also be evaluated on their ability to retain teachers of color.

32. Among teachers of color leaving their jobs, half of them quit because _______.

A. they had to take care of their children

B. they had to move to other places

C. they eventually found better-paid jobs

D. their employment situation was unsatisfactory

33. Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. The solutions to increasing graduation rates among minority students.

B. The benefits of increasing the share of minority teachers in schools.

C. The reasons for teachers of color leaving their jobs in many schools.

D. The ways to decrease the possibility of racial discrimination at school.

34. Which of the following components is vital to equality and opportunity?

A. Honesty

B. Variety

C. Ability

D. Safety

35. How did the author feel when writing the passage?

A. He felt angry about the government.

B. He was satisfied with the present situation.

C. He felt it urgent to solve the problem.

D. He didn?t care about diverse teaching workforce.

Humor plays an important role in relationships. In new relationships, humor can be an effective tool not just for attracting the other person but also for overcoming any awkwardness or embarrassment. 36

Sharing the pleasure of humor creates a sense of connection between two people. When you laugh with one another, you create a positive tie between you. This tie acts as a strong buffer(缓冲) against stress, disagreements, disappointments, and bad patches in a relationship. And laughter really is infectious. 37 But don?t worry if you?re not naturally a lighthearted, humorous person----you can learn to access your playful side and develop your sense of fun.

Like any tool, humor can be used in negative as well as positive ways. Humor can only help you overcome relationship problems when both partners can understand the joke. 38 If your partner or friend isn?t likely to appreciate the joke, don?t say or do it. Humor in relationships should be e qually fun and enjoyable for both people.

Don?t use humor to cover up other emotions.39 That?s when it is used as a cover for avoiding, rather than coping with, painful emotions. You can be funny about the truth, but covering up the truth isn?t funny. When you use humor and playfulness as a cover for other emotions, you create confusion and mistrust in your relationships.

40 The important thing is to find enjoyable activities that help you embrace your playful nature with other

people. As humor a nd play become an unseparated part of your life, you?ll begin to find daily opportunities for using your new-found skills to help build and maintain your relationships.

A. Humor can help you and your loved one.

B. There are times when humor is not healthy.

C. It?s important to be sensitive to the other person.

D. It?s never too late to develop your humorous side.

E. The more you joke, play, and laugh----the easier it becomes.

F. Just hearing someone laugh can make you smile and join in on the fun.

G. In longer-term relationships, humor can keep things exciting and fresh.

27. B 根据最后一段可知男女顾客都会对此感兴趣，故虚拟试衣间会有它的市场地位。

C篇读者写信来倾诉了与老板相处中的问题，Karla回信给出了一些中肯的建议。

28. A 根据第一段的第二句“He used to be so appreciative…but…he started being rude and demanding”可知选A

36.G 本段说明了幽默在人际关系中的重要作用，上一句说明了在新关系中幽默的作用，此处接着论述幽默在长期关系中的作用符合逻辑。

38.C 根据下一句提到的我们要关注同伴或朋友的感受可知，C项（善于体察他人的态度很重要）符合语境。

39.B 上一句是本段的主题句，指出不要用幽默掩盖其他情绪。下一句明确指出不能使用幽默的情况，故B项可与其对应。

高二英语期中考试试卷分析

高二英语期中考试试卷分析 一、试卷总体情况分析 本次期中考试试卷主要考查英语模块3所学内容，试卷总分150分。试题内容丰富，知识覆盖面广，题型较多，包括听力、完形填空、阅读理解、语法填空、短文改错和作文，和高考题型保持一致。考点知识既源于教材，又聚焦高考，全面考查了学生读、写等方面的能力。试卷以新课程理念为指导，既关注高考，又强调知识与能力并重。总体而言，试卷难度稍微偏大了点，下面以我校英语考试为抽样分析样本，对本次试卷做一个简要的分析。 二、学生各项题型得分情况及主要失分点分析 （一）试卷各大题得分情况统计（如下表）： 从表中的数据看，阅读得分相对好一点，但也不是很理想，所以我们平时要重视基础知识；而完形填空、阅读理解这两项综合运用题的得分不高，高一学生语篇语境理解的能力较弱，综合运用能力差在

意料之中，虽然客观上这两项的难度的确大了些，但我们在教学中仍不可忽视这一点，即要在立足课本的同时，应重视学生的课外阅读。短文改错和作文得分一般，这提醒老师在教学中仍要加强课外阅读指导和训练，加强作文和短文改错的训练。 （二）各大题主要失分点及其原因分析： 第一部分：听力 听力既与学生所学教材紧密联系，又聚焦高考，与高考题型保持一致。听力语速较慢难度不大，但得分率不算高。本项失分较多的题目分别为：第3、5、6题，其中3、6题得分率最低。 第二部分：阅读 本次阅读理解包括四篇短文，一篇七选五，体裁涉及议论文和记叙文，所选文章具有一定的思想性和可读性，事实细节题、推理判断题和主旨大意题等各种题型均有涉及，注重考查学生的阅读理解能力。其中16、23、26题得分率比较低。 第三部分：完型填空 完形填空主要考查学生在阅读理解的基础上对语篇、语法和词汇知识的掌握情况，要求学生能够综合运用所学的词汇、语法等知识选出最佳选项，是综合性能力比较强的题型，也是学生难得高分的题型。本篇完形填空选用的夹叙夹议文体，选材精当，内容感人，问题设置非常巧妙。主要考查了三种能力：阅读理解能力；利用上下文线索进行分析和推理的能力；学生语言基础知识的运用能力。总的来说，材料偏难，达不到锻炼的效果。难题占了一半以上，其中41、42、47、50最难。 第四部分：语法填空与短文改错 这两道题考场学生的综合能力，难度较大，也是高考的难点与易错点。得分率非常的低。学生对一些语法点和语言点掌握的不牢固，需要不断加强训练，总结答题技巧。 第五部分：写作和书面表达 本次作文不是很好写，尤其对于刚上高中的学生来说更是很难，甚至出现了很多0分现象。在评卷的过程中我们还发现下面所存在的

高二下学期英语期中考试试卷、考试分析及自我反思

高二下学期英语期中考试试卷、考试分析及自我反思 高二下学期英语期中考试试卷、考试分析及自我反思 一、试卷评价 本次考试试卷质量较高，切合高考难度及重点。该套试卷按照高考题型及命题原则命题，考察了学生的听、读和写以及语言知识综合应用能力，体现了高中英语教学目的和新改教学精神。 二、试卷分析 本套试卷按照高考题的标准，主要分为一卷单选和二卷语法填空，改错和书面表达。首先分析本次的一卷。一卷主要包括听力，阅读理解和完型填空三个大题。其中听力共20小题，30分；阅读理解4篇共1题30分，七选五小题，10分；完形填空20题，30分。本次一卷失分最重的是听力。听力难度比较大，很多都没有直接答案，而且表达时间的词，如inutes left,和生词hesi，get arried，学生直接就听不出。本套试卷的听力，考察时间的3小题，难度都较大。本题主要考察学生对信息的整体把握以及理解，这正是一二区学生的能力缺乏的地方。所以失分较多。阅读理解题较简单，细节理解的题目较多，推理判断题目适中。整体说虽然阅读理解难度有所降低，但是很多题设计很灵活，比如说第二篇，失分非常多，但是通过简单的推理排除就能从中把答案都排除掉，仍然很多人做错。阅读理解是英语的半边天。

也是学生的难点，应继续练习。本套试卷中的七选五难度较高，不是简单的根据关键词或者首句判断，而是考察学生对整个语篇的理解，以及掌握。但是考察语篇的理解已经渐渐成为高考重点，应该强掉让学生练习这一方面的能力。本套题的完型填空难度较大，提示词较少，且理解较为困难，出错较多。 本套题二卷主要包括语法填空，改错以及书面表达三个大题。本套题的语法填空考察知识主要包括代词bth，副词修饰动词，形容词修饰名词，固定搭配，非谓语，非限制性定语从句以及形容词性物主代词加名词。较为简单。改错主要考察学生的语感以及跟语法填空相似的语法考察。本次改错考察介词后加ding，nthing和sething却别，se+名词复数，固定搭配，连词，时态以及副词修饰动词等。虽然难度较小，但学生做题量不够，不能第一时间找出错点。本次试卷的作涉及题型为书面表达。题目较为简单。谈论喜欢的运动，但是学生普遍失分较多。 总体说本套题难易相宜，且非常贴合高考难度，质量较好。 英语考试分析 本次考试科英语被一区落下221分。从成绩上分析，问题主要集中在二卷，被落下3分。但是一卷也没有达到理想成绩。听力部分和完形填空部分失分较多，问题严重。二卷失分较严重。 附分数表 班级>100 90-100 80-90 70-80 平均分 三班7 9 9 13 786

(word完整版)高二英语试卷分析

英语期末考试分析 一、试卷结构 本此考试时间为120分钟，分值为150分。由完形填空（30分）、阅读理解（34分）、任务型阅读训练（10分）、语法填空（15分）、单词拼写（20分）、短文改错（10分）书面表达（31分）部分组成。从试卷的整体看难度适中，基础知识部分注重对学生现阶段复习的语法知识点的考查，结构比较合理。 二．试题得分情况 高二理一最高分125分，高二文一班最高分139分，平均成绩为81和92。 三、试卷各大题得分情况统计 1、阅读理解A、B篇得分较好，这是教师和学生一阶段以来共同重视和努力的结果，也是同学们对所复习语法知识的积累的体现。这次阅读理解的文章题材多样，且篇幅较短，相对容易理解。A篇是广告类文字，选项一目了然。B篇是生存小常识，非常有趣，C篇是家庭教育故事，设题的角度也很直接，设题基本覆盖了阅读能力考查的几个方面，有细节题，主旨大意题，推理题，词义猜测题。学生得分情况较理想。

2、完型填空得分较差。重考查学生对篇章的理解能力和对所学语言知识的判断理解及综合运用能力。考虑到期中考试的目的除了检查学生半学期的掌握情况，更重要的是对学生起到鼓舞的作用，所以在挑选试题时就选了相对简单的学生又有背景知识的文章。选项单词集中在动词，形容词和连词三种词性，都是常规词汇，难易适中。这反映了学生对文章具体语境的揣测能力和对文章的整体理解、把握能力及对上下文的逻辑关系的判断能力都有待于进一步的加强；对于书面表达有一部分学生欠缺的端正的学习态度，再有就是基础词汇知识的太大的欠缺，再有就是对文章顺畅及谋篇布局的能力。 四、试卷主要失分题分析 1. 完形填空 完形填空是对学生综合语篇阅读和知识点考查，是对知识点的灵活运用。它要求学生快速浏览全文，从整体上把握文章的脉络，把握作者的思维轨迹，以获取最重要的信息。因此，对很多学生来说做好完形填空是较为困难的。期中考试的完形填空是一篇记叙文。它讲述一位在圣诞节到来之际，没有妈妈相伴的女孩如何在朋友的爱的感召下摆脱伤感的心境的故事。该内容贴近学生的生活，很有教育意义。对大多数学生而言，理解

2018年秋高二英语期中试题学生卷

高二英语期中考试题 一、阅读理解（共5大题；每小题2分，共40分） A On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the New York railway station, playing his violin. The music was so great that many people stopped to put some money into the hat of the young man. The next day, the young artist came to the same place, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different from the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it under his hat. Then he began to play the violin. It sounded more pleasant than ever. Soon he was surrounded with people who were attracted by the words on that paper. It said, "Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim（认领）it soon." After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the violinist and said, "Yes, it's you. I knew that you were an honest man and would certainly come here." The young violinist asked calmly, "Are you Mr. George Sang?" The man nodded. The violinist asked, "Did you lose something?" "It's a lottery ticket （彩票）," said the man. The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang's name was seen. "Is it?" he asked. George nodded and took the lottery ticket and kissed it, then danced with the violinist. The violinist was a student at an arts college and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. Later his classmate asked the violinist, "At that time you needed money to pay the tuition （学费）and you had to play the violin in the railway station every day to make money. Why didn't you keep the lottery ticket for yourself?" The violinist said, "Although I don't have much money, I live happily. But if I lose honesty I won't be happy forever." Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. 1.What did the young artist do at the railway station on Friday? A. He walked around the New York railway station. B. He waited for the train to Vienna. C. He came to buy a train ticket to Vienna. D. He played the violin to make some money. 2.Which of the following statements is true according to the words on the paper? A. The hat belonged to George Sang.

高中英语期末考试试卷分析

英语学科试卷分析 本次英语试卷的出题学校是鞍山一中，试题难度适中，符合目前我们学生的 学情，除了完形填空一题偏难之外，其他题目同学们都能正常发挥。在这次试卷 中，同学们最容易得分的部分是语法填空，改错还有作文。此次作文题目出的中 规中矩，让同学们有话可说，有句型可写，所以普遍得分在15 分以上。而失分 最多的部分是完形填空，因为文章内容抽象，选项中生词偏多，所以对于词汇量 一般的同学来说正确率只能达到百分之六十。此次考试，教师也和同学们同步答题，反应也和同学们一样，觉得完型对于现阶段的同学来说还是偏难，在理解上 有较大的困难。但是在此次考试中，也不乏有得高分的同学，最高分达到了142 分，文科前四十分的平均分也到达了120 分以上，与兄弟院校差距较小。由此说明英语尖子生还是非常的突出。 目前英语试卷的高考题采用的是全国卷二，难度较以往偏简单，但是拉分的 项目还是在于完形填空，因此在此题的难度设置上会有所提高，而此次试卷的出 题意图也和高考试卷的命题方向不谋而合。 针对现阶段高考命题的思路，下一步的工作还是要从扩大学生词汇量上入手， 夯实基础，在此之上，要加大学生的阅读量，巩固语法知识。除了要进行每周的 周测之外，还有有步骤的对全年级同学进行单词的测试。与此同时，还要提高作 文的写作能力。将阅读课与写作课相结合，从阅读中，获得灵感，启发写作思路， 积累句型。在接下来的一年半中，英语学科已经进入复习阶段，会让学生们更进 一步夯实基础，再对单项进行强化，达到质的飞跃。但是对于层次不同的同学，还 是要采取不同的教学方法。 100 份以上的同学，要强化阅读和完型，平时多布置这 方面的习题，把阅读错题量控制在两个以内，完型控制在三个以内。一百分以下 的同学，还是要加大词汇量，语法上进行强化。对于英语学科瘸腿的同学， 要进行单独约谈，从心理上着手，让他们克服心理障碍，改变学习态度，争取做 得更好。

浙江绍兴一中学年高二上期中考试英语试卷解析版

浙江绍兴一中2016-2017学年高二上期中考试英语试卷（解析版） 一、阅读理解 1、阅读理解 According to body language expert Robert Phipps, the way people sleep at night actually determines a lot about the type of personality they have. Phipps has identified four sleeping positions that affect personality. Phipps found that worriers, those who stress the most, tend to sleep in the fetal (胎儿的) position. He found that this is the most common bedtime position, with nearly 58 percent of people sleeping on their side with knees up and head down. The more we curl up (蜷曲), the more comfort we are seeking, according to Phipps. The second most common position is the log. Sleeping with a straight body, with arms at each side, as if they are standing guard at Buckingham Palace, indicates stubbornness, and these people (the 28 percent who sleep this way) often wake up stiffer than when they went to sleep. “The longer you sleep like this, the more rigid your thinking is and you can become inflexible, which means you make things harder for yourself,” according to Phipps. Yearner (向往) sleepers are next on the list. About 25 percent of people sleep in this style—on their side with arms stretched out in front, looking as if they are either chasing a dream or perhaps being chased themselves. Yearners are typically their own worst critics, always expecting the best results, explained Phipps. These people often wake up refreshed and eager to face the challenges of the day ahead. Perhaps the most peculiar (奇怪的) of sleep styles is the freefaller position. This sleep style makes up 17 percent of the population. They sleep face down with arms stretched out. These people, according to Phipps, feel like they have little control over their life. Not only is this the strangest of sleep styles, but also the least comfortable, and people may wake up feeling tired and have no energy.
