This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.‎ From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.‎ Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At that moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.‎ No more angry shouts and no more horns!‎ When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.‎ Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.‎ ‎21. The author feels sad sometimes because .‎ A. he has a soft heart B. some people fail to see the kindness in others C. some people pretend to be kind D. he relies much on others ‎22. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?‎ A. They waited with patience. B. They speeded up to pass.‎ C. They tried their best to help. D. They put on their flashlights too.‎ ‎23. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?‎ A. A Wheelchair Experience. B. A Driving Experience C. Weakness and Strength D. Weakness and Kindness.‎ B ‎“Get your hands off me, I have been stolen,” the laptop, a portable computer, shouted. That is a new solution to laptop computer theft: a program that lets owners give their property a voice when it has been taken.‎ The program allows users to display alerts on the missing computer’s screen and even to set a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thief a piece of their mind.‎ Owners must report their laptop missing by logging on to a website, which sends a message to the model: a red and yellow “lost or stolen” banner pops up on its screen when it is started. Under the latest version of the software, users can also send a spoken message.‎ The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief closes it. “One customer sent a message saying, ‘You are being tracked. I am right at your door’,” said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the company which produces the program, Retriever.‎ In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. The default through the computer’s speakers is: “Help, this laptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, please report me now.”‎ The Retriever software package, which costs $29.95 but has a free trial period, has the functions of many security software programs. Owners can remotely switch to an alternative password prompt if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access details.‎ If a thief accesses the internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its location.‎ Thousands of laptops are stolen every year from homes and offices, but with the use of laptops increasing, the number stolen while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.‎ Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down the computer.‎ ‎24. The expression “to give the thief a piece of their mind” can be understood as “ ”.‎ A. to express the owners’ anger to the thief B. to give the thief an alert mind C. to remind the thief of his conscience D. to make the thief give up his mind ‎25. Different from other security software, Retriever can .‎ A. record the stealing process B. help recognize the lost laptop C. send a spoken message D. lock down the computer remotely ‎26. One function of the program is that it allows the owner to at a distance.‎ A. turn on the laptop by using the original password B. change some access details for switching on the laptop C. operate the laptop by means of an alternative password D. erase the information kept in the stolen laptop ‎27. Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?‎ A. With no Retriever, thousands of laptops are stolen every year. B. Retriever has helped to find thieves and lost computers.‎ C. A new software provides a means to reduce laptop theft.‎ D. A new program offers a communication platform with the thief.‎ To: All Staff ‎C Columbus College, 241 Queen Elizabeth Drive, Kowloon City Memo From: Jakie Mok, Secretary; Sports Development Committee Date: May 20, 2010‎ A week ago, “Sports for Life” programme was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then, our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo (备忘录) for your reference when you answer the phones.‎ Sports 1: Basketball.‎ We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park. To cover the cost of hiring a bus, each student will have to pay＄10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.‎ Sports 2: Gym We will be using St. Peter’s Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6:00 pm. Second, it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities, skipping, jogging, outdoor aerobics (有 氧运动), all of which are free of charge, will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.‎ Sports 3: Hiking Hiking ( 远 足 ) will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 pm and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students, and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers. Each instructor will cost ＄75/hr. Students are advised to bring plenty of water and sunscreen.‎ Sports 4: Swimming The Kowloon City Aquatic Centre is a 10-minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the goings-on from the poolside. We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour (i.e. 2:45 pm to 3:45 pm). Only students skillful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards present. Girls must wear a swimming suit. The cost is＄10 per visit.‎ ‎28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A. Students participating in gym should arrive at 6:00 pm. B. Students selecting basketball had better register early. C. Hiking usually begins at 2:30 pm and lasts 2 hours.‎ D. Students having swimming suits can take up swimming.‎ ‎29. It can be inferred from the passage that .‎ A. students taking part in basketball will walk to the courts B. every student can gain admission to one of the four sports C. hiking students can have a regular rest in the shade of trees D. students taking up the four sports should bring bottles of water ‎30. It can be concluded that .‎ A. each sport will take only one hour B. students will be charged for the four sports C. teachers will accompany students on each sport D. all the sports will take place at Kowloon Peak ‎31. The purpose of the memo is to .‎ A. attract students’ interest in the programme B. require the parents to select a sport for their child C. help the staff explain the programme to the parents D. remind teachers and lifeguards to be present on time D When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.‎ For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫不掩饰的).‎ In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.‎ In adulthood the things that bring deep joy — love, marriage, birth — also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated.‎ My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.‎ I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.‎ Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.‎ We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.‎ Happiness isn’t about what happens to us — it’s about how we see what happens to us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have, but enjoying what we do possess.‎ ‎32. As people grow older, they .‎ A. associate their happiness less with others B. feel it harder to experience happiness C. will take fewer risks in pursuing happiness D. tend to believe responsibility means happiness ‎33. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 5 and 6?‎ A. She cares little about her own health. B. She enjoys the freedom of traveling.‎ C. She is easily pleased by things in daily life. D. She prefers getting pleasure from housework.‎ ‎34. What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?‎ A. Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness. B. Psychologists’ opinion is well proved by Grandma’ case. C. Grandma often found time for social gatherings.‎ D. Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life.‎ ‎35. What can be concluded from the passage?‎ A. Happiness lies between the positive and the negative. B. Each man is the master of his own fate.‎ C. Happy is he who is content. D. Success leads to happiness.‎ 第二节 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。（每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）‎ We all know the hard work that filmmakers and actors put in to provide us with entertainment.‎ ‎36 ‎ For decades now, film studios have used so-called test screenings to get feedback from members of the public before a movie comes out. 37 However, media giant Disney has come up with a more high-tech solution: to measure test audiences’ reactions by using special cameras placed inside cinemas.‎ Pairing the cameras with custom software, the company can track what each audience member is feeling at any point in the movie, from anger to joy. 38 The cameras can see in the dark, and the software can figure out a person’s mood based on the slightest of facial expressions. It’s hoped that this new method will allow more detailed feedback from test audiences because it can accurately read their reactions in real-time.‎ Test screening are highly valued in the movie industry. 39 Viewers of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) would have left the cinema feeling a whole lot different if it weren’t for its test audience’s feedback. “In one cut of the film that was tested, E. T. died instead of going home in his spaceship. You won’t be surprised to hear that the test audience in question didn’t warm to this ending at all.” wrote media website Den of Geek.‎ But for those who are concerned about privacy, the cameras won’t be installed in public cinemas.‎ ‎40 ‎ A. In reality, not all of the people are content with the effect of the movies.‎ B. This works by mapping 68 different points on each audience member’s face.‎ C. And several well-known movies have been greatly changed following feedback. D. The special cameras in public cinemas easily go wrong and often fail to work.‎ E. After all, unless you’re part of a test audience, being in front of the cameras is best left to the movie stars.‎ F. But it seems that even regular moviegoers like us have a big impact on how a movie turns out too.‎ G. Test audience members are usually asked to fill in a questionnaire after a screening, telling the film studio what they liked and didn’t like.‎ 第三节 阅读下列表述，若与 Teens 相应的文章内容相符请在机读卡的对应位置将 A 选项涂黑， 不符请涂 B。(每小题 0.5 分，满分 4 分)‎ ‎41.

According to a survey published by the European Commission, the British are 69 (office) the worst language learners in Europe —‎ ‎62 percent of them can’t speak any other language apart from 70 (they) own.‎ Learning a foreign language is not a popular option at school in Britain; children start studying a foreign language 71 11 and many give up completely several years later. So why don’t young people continue with languages at school? A research suggests that students think it is more difficult to get good grades in languages than in other subjects, such as science or history. The government is now looking at different ways 72 (improve) language learning. One idea is to start much younger and introduce foreign languages from the age of five. 73 idea is to give school children more 74 (choose) and expand the range of languages 75 (teach) to include Arabic, Mandarin and Urdu.‎ Mandarin Chinese is predicted to become the second most popular foreign language learned in UK schools. Brighton College headmaster Richard Cairns says, “One of my key tasks is to make sure pupils ‎76 (equip) for the realities of the 21st century. One of those realities is 77 China has the fastest-growing economy in the world.” It may be an ambitious task to change the Brits’ attitude to ‎78 (learn) languages but the government is determined to try.‎ 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分 30 分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（每小题 1 分，满分 10 分）‎ 文中共有 10 处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线(＼)划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2. 只允许修改 10 处，多者（从第 11 处起）不计分。‎ Nowadays, the majority of citizens consider an ordinary job bored or even valueless. In our ordinary life, there are many ordinary people, and they have made extraordinary contributions. For an example, cleaners’ jobs are one of the hardest job. Every early morning, when we are deeply in our sleeping, dustmen have begun their daily work. With our sweat and diligent work, streets are clean and tidy. If there were no cleaners, our streets will be full of rubbish. There would be a lot of flies and rats nowhere. People living in the city would suffer from terrible diseases.‎ In my opinion, the ordinary thing is playing an important part in our life. Ordinary and small as it is, it’s necessary. Meanwhile those which do small and ordinary things should be respected and paid attention.‎ 第二节 书面表达（20 分）‎ 你校学生会需招聘一名留学生做英语学习顾问 (English Study Advisor)，请你以短文形式写一 则 100 词左右的招聘启事。内容应包括：‎ ‎（1）对语言的要求；（2）具体工作；（3）工作时间和报酬；（4）联系人：李蓉（Tel. 13866998856） 注意：（1）参考词汇：应聘者 applicant；（2）可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。‎ English Study Advisor Wanted Students’ Union 高 2017 级高二上期 10 月阶段性测试英语试题参考答案 命题人：高 2017 级英语备课组 ‎(Text 1)‎ M: How much are the tickets?‎ W: There are 15 pounds each, but student tickets are half price.

I looked out of a huge window, at that very moment I saw the largest truck in the world, I had to tell someone about this. I turned to my father who was standing next to about a thousand people waiting for the very flight and screamed “Track! Track!” My father tried hard to shut me up, but I was so excited, I kept screaming my special word. My poor mother decided she didn’t know this baby and then ran into the ladies room where she hid until I finally stopped. Well, I learned how to say truck correctly, and soon I was talking like a normal child.

Every early morning, when we are deeply(deep) in our sleeping, dustmen have begun their daily work. With our(their) sweat and diligent work, streets are clean and tidy. If there were no cleaners, our streets will(would) be full of rubbish. There would be a lot of flies and rats nowhere(everywhere). People living in the city would suffer from terrible diseases. In my opinion, the ordinary thing is playing an important part in our life. Ordinary and small as it is, it’s necessary. Meanwhile those which(who) do small and ordinary things should be respected and paid attention(加 to).‎
