B.On Sunday 29 April C.On Tuesday 22 May. D. On Tuesday 29 May B I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the film— it wanted somebody as well known as Paul— he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.‎ The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft（技艺）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other— but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core （核心）of our relationship off the screen.‎ ‎2017年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back— he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, zxx.k but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.‎ I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital.He and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn’t talk about it.Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.‎ ‎24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?‎ A.Paul Newman wanted it.‎ B.The studio powers didn’t like his agent.‎ C.He wasn’t famous enough.‎ D.The director recommended someone else.‎ ‎25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?‎ A.They were of the same dge.‎ B.They worked in the same theater.‎ C.They were both good actors.‎ D.They han similar charactertics.‎ ‎26.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?‎ A.Their belief.‎ B.Their care for chileden.‎ C.Their success.‎ D.Their support for each other.‎ ‎27.What is the author’s purpose in writing the test?‎ A.To show his love of films.‎ B.To remember a friend.‎ C.To introduce a new movie.‎ D.To share his acting experience.‎ C ‎ Terrafugia Inc .said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight,bringing the ‎ ‎2017年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year.The wehicle-named the Transition – has two seats wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car.The Transition,which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.‎ Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000.And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.‎ ‎ Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The govemment has already permitted z&xxkthe company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety siandards.‎ Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition,a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.‎ ‎28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The basic data of the Transition. B. The advantages of flying cars.‎ C. The potential market for flying cars. C. The designers of the Transition.‎ ‎29. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?‎ A. It causers traffic jams. B. It is difficult to operate.‎ C. It is very expensive. D. It bums too much fuel.‎ ‎30. What is the govemment’s attitude to the development of the flying car?‎ A. Cautious B. Favorable.‎ C. Ambiguous. D. Disapproving.‎ ‎31. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Flying Car at Auto Show B. The Transition’s Fist Flight ‎2017年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 C.Pilots’Dream Coming True D. Flying Car Closer to Reality D When a leafy plant is under attack ，it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.‎ ‎ Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’s a plant’s way of crying out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.‎ ‎ Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.Once they arrive,the tables are turned .The attacker who are natural enemies to the attackers . zxx|k Once they arrive,the tables are turned.The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.‎ ‎ In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.‎ Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth. Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on. 32. What does a plant do when it is under attack? A. It makes noises.     B. It gets help from other plants. C. It stands quietly    D. It sends out certain chemicals. 33. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3? A. The attackers get attacked. B. The insects gather under the table. C. The plants get ready to fight back. ‎ ‎2017年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.‎ ‎34.Scientists find from their studies that plants can .‎ A.predict natural disasters B.protect themselves against insects C.talk to one another intentionally D.help their neighbors when necessary ‎35.what can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A.The word is changing faster than ever.‎ B.People have stronger senses than before C.The world is more complex than it seems D.People in Darwin’s time were imaginative.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。‎ Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while you’re trying to get work done. 36 ,there are several ways to handle things.Let’s take a look at them now.‎ ‎ 37 .Tell the person you’re sorry and explain that you have a million things to do and then ask if the of you can talk at a different time.‎ When people try to interrupt you,have set hours planned and let them know to come back during that time or that you’ll find them then. 38 .It can help to eliminate(消除) future interruptions.‎ When you need to someone,don’t do it in your own office. 39 .it’s much easeier to excuse yourself to get back to your work than if you try to get someone out of your space even after explaining how busy you are If you have a door to your office,make good use of it. 40 .If someone knocks and it’s not an important matter. Excuseyourself and let the person know you’re busy so they can get the hint(暗示) than when the door is closed,you’re not to be disturbed.‎ A.If you’re busy, don’t feel bad about saying no B.

Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.‎ ‎ Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.‎ ‎ Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare,” But I’m just not creative.”‎ ‎ “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”‎ ‎ “Oh, sure.”‎ ‎ “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”‎ ‎ “Nobody. I do it.”‎ ‎ “Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”‎ ‎ “Sure.”‎ ‎ “Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”‎ ‎25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?‎ A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting ‎ C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design ‎26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?‎ A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone. ‎ C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?‎ A. Mistake. B. Drawback. ‎ C. Difficulty. D. Burden.‎ ‎28. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?‎ ‎ A. To help them to see their creativity. B. To find out about their sleeping habits. ‎ ‎2016年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 C. To help them to improve their memory. D. To find out about their ways of thinking.‎ C Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.‎ Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.‎ ‎ Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”‎ ‎ Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.‎ People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.‎ ‎ BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.‎ ‎29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?‎ ‎ A. To explain what they are. ‎ B. To introduce BookCrossing.‎ C. To stress the importance of reading. ‎ D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.‎ ‎30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?‎ ‎ A. The book. B. An adventure. ‎ C. A public place. D. The identification number.‎ ‎31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?‎ ‎2016年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 ‎ A. Meet other readers to discuss it. B. Keep it safe in his bookcase. ‎ C. Pass it on to another reader. D. Mail it back to its owner.‎ ‎32. What is the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books: A new Trend ‎ C. A Book Group Brings Tradition Back D. A Website Links People through Books D A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.‎ Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.‎ ‎ The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.‎ ‎ As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.‎ ‎33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?‎ ‎ A. They were made last week ‎ B. They showed undersea sceneries ‎ C. They were found by a cameraman ‎2016年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 ‎ D.

What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?‎ ‎ A. Artistic creation B. Scientific research ‎ C. Money making D.

But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.‎ ‎●___37 ‎ Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers(肥料). 38 . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.‎ ‎●Recall(回忆)your childhood memories ‎ Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood.

For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it,I had to change to another channel and then change it back.Sometimes this technique would not work,and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set. 　　When neither of these methods removed the static noise ,I would sit helplessly and  wait for the noise to go away.At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist,and it stopped working altogether .My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now,but I keep expecting more trouble.‎ ‎21.Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?

You can make your environment work for you instead of against you . Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan. 　　Open the curtains and turn up the lights . Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light , get more lamps and flood the place with brightness. 　　Mind the colors . Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites . In one study , people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room . Warm colors like yellow make tood appear more appetizing , while cold colors make us feel less hungry . So when it’s time to repaint , go blue. 　　Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down , turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal. 　　Downsize the dishs, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.‎ ‎25.The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.

It is not surprising that more and 　　More students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40%  of students  are  forced   to  work  during  term  timeand  the  figure  increases  to 90% during  vacation periods,”he said.‎ ‎29.

They don't listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: ] became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn't realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather. I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.‎ ‎ I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot - and my boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I've used it in the operating room ever since.‎ CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them , someday someone will keep me from ”landing gear up”.‎ ‎36.What dose the author say about doctors in general?‎ ‎ A.

The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.‎ ‎ At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.‎ ‎ Soon,groups of studentsfirstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.‎ ‎ Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yetas early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.‎ ‎ A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.‎ ‎40.

The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste.

What is good about chocolate?‎ A. It serves as a suitable gift.‎ B. It works as an effective medicine.‎ C. It helps improve the state of mind.‎ D. It strengthens business relations.‎ ‎45.

They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet's water. Sometimes owners don't realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can't get anything to drink.

To present a research result.‎ B ‎ ‎ ‎ You may think that sailing is a difficult, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind,‎ ‎ First, you must ask yourself, "Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side? You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.‎ ‎ Let's start with the wind blowing from behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.‎ ‎ If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45°angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind. but it shouldn't flap (摆动 ). It shouldn't look like a flag on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down. ‎ ‎ Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can't go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.‎ ‎45. What should you consider first while sailing?‎ ‎ A. Sailors' strength ‎ B. Wave levels.‎ C. Wind directions.‎ D.

In a tourist guidebook.‎ ‎ C. in physics textbook.‎ ‎ D. In an official report C ‎2012年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 Facial expressions carry, meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture(文化 ) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. we often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; frequently used to cover painful feelings, Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.‎ Our faces show emotions (情感)， but we should not attempt to "read" people from another culture as we would "read" someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.‎ It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of "reading" the other person incorrectly.‎ ‎49. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?‎ ‎ A. Love. B.

The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because "everyone's a winner." And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. AS a result. Stanford University professor Carol-Dweck, PhD, calls them "the overprized generation."‎ Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here's how they work:‎ ‎ A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic you're a born artist point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult it's quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties. ‎ ‎2012年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 ‎ On the other band, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego ( 自尊) isn't on the line as much. the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it's quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.‎ ‎ We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck's book, Mind-set:The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.‎ ‎57. What does the author think about the present generation?‎ A. They don't do well at school.‎ B. They are often misunderstood.‎ C. They are eager to win in sports. ‎ D. They are given too much praise. ‎ ‎58. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who __‎ ‎ A. doesn't want to work bard ‎ B. cares a lot about personal safety ‎ C. cannot share his ideas with others ‎ D. can succeed with the help of teachers ‎59. what does the growth mind-set believe? ‎ ‎ A. Admitting failure is shameful.‎ ‎ B. Talent comes with one's birth.‎ ‎ C. Scores should be highly valued.‎ ‎ D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.‎ ‎60. What should parents do for their children based on Dweck's study?‎ ‎ A. Encourage them to learn from failures.‎ ‎ B. Prevent them from making mistakes.‎ ‎ C. Guide them in doing little things.‎ ‎ D. Help them grow with praise.‎ ‎ 第二节 根据对话内容从对话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。‎ Daughter: Dad: You love me, don't you? ‎ Father: Of course, I do. 61 ‎ Daughter: Well, I saw this great offer for a free phone here in the newspaper, and...‎ Father: 62 ‎ Daughter: Well, the phone is free… after the $5O I pay is returned to me.‎ Daughter: Dad.

One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals（壁画）have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.‎ The walls that were once ugly with graffiti（涂鸦）are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schools and public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part of Philadelphia's Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP's artistic director. "When people ask me what our program is about," she says, "I answer them with one word: hope." Each year, the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some one-time graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals.‎ ‎ The MAP's work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community（社区）．When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Some messages have been "Safe Streets," "Love and Care," and "Peace Walk."‎ The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140 murals.‎ ‎ "The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasant moment in neighborhood history" says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.‎ ‎41．What can be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A.

An animal that is aware（意识）of itself has a high level of intelligence.‎ Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image（反射出的影像）.Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying evry little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.‎ Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.‎ ‎“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M.Plotnik and Fans B.M. de Waal of Emory‎ ‎University. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”‎ The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals’ play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.‎ The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.‎ Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.‎ Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."‎ ‎45.

I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite" sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".‎ So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．‎ Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate（气候），while getting on with business.‎ Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality（准时）．If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.‎ ‎52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______．‎ ‎ A. the American bank didn't think much of him ‎2011年全国卷2高考英语真题及答案解析 ‎ B. the American bank might hire another person ‎ C. it's difficult to get used to American culture ‎ D. it's easy to misunderstand Americans ‎53．The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.‎ ‎ A. encourages B. helps to narrow ‎ C. increases D. draws attention to ‎54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?‎ ‎ A. Ask the native people for help.‎ ‎ B. Understand and accept them.‎ ‎ C. Do things in our own way.‎ ‎ D. Do in-depth research.‎ ‎55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.‎ ‎ A. Italians B. Germans C. Greeks D. the British E ‎ "I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said ‘yes’ and it was announced again."‎ ‎ It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana----she was still on cloud nine．‎ ‎ "I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience（观众）that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.‎ Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete（比赛）．"She's always been my role model．I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her."‎ One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”‎ As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens（青少年）about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Sheiley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.‎ When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."‎ ‎56.What do the words “on cloud nine” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ ‎ A. frightened B. troubled C. very happy D. very angry ‎57.Shelley takes her dance teachers as a role medel mainly because she is .‎ ‎ A. determined B. friendly C. strict D. experienced ‎58.How many children did the Hennigs have according to the text?‎ ‎ A. 1.
