【全国百强校】吉林省长春外国语学校2016-2017学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题
Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?
UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”.
Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.
Simard talks about “mother trees”, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.
“We didn’t take any notice of it.” Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them a chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.
1.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Old Trees Communicate Like Humans
B. Young Trees Are In Need Of Protection
C. Trees Contribute To Our Society
D. Trees Are More Complex Than You Think
2.In Simard’s opinion, trees .
A. protect their own wealth
B. depend on each other
C. compete for survival
D. provide support for dying trees
3.We can learn from the passage that .
A. if “mother trees” are cut down, the survival for the entire forest will be affected
B. “mother trees” are usually of no use to other trees
C. Charles Darwin had the same thought as Simard
D. people know much about the complex “tree societies”
【答案】
1.D
2.B
3.A
【解析】文章介绍树和树之间不是你死我活的竞争关系,它们之间是相互依赖的,快要死的树会将自己的营养传给小树让它们更好的成长,人们如果知道这些现象,就可以更好的保护这些树。
3. A细节题:根据文章第四段的句子:She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow.可知mother trees之所以重要是因为它们将营养传给小树,选A。
B

While inventions like the wheel and the Internet have changed the way the world works today, there are some creations that never quite got off the ground. Let’s look at the strangest inventions from across the globe.
THE TOMATO-FEEDING ROBOT
Japanese juice seller, Kagome, invented a robot that will feed you tomatoes with its long metal arms extended on either side of your face while you run. Originally created for the Tokyo Marathon, the robot even has a timer so that tomato-eating runners won’t use up their supply too quickly.
THE ROLLING BENCH
It’s lunchtime and many people may be looking for a park bench to sit on, but the rain has made every surface humid. This is when the rolling bench comes in. When one side is too wet, a handle on the side can roll up another dry side for better sitting conditions. The inventions come from designer Sung Woo Park, from Seoul in South Korea.
THE LED SLIPPERS(拖鞋)
We all hate hurting our toes in the dark, but a revolutionary footwear design can prevent this from happening again. The slightly strange LED slippers are designed to be comfortable, yet shine your path at night. With two in-built LED lights at the top of each slipper, the users can direct their toes at any area that needs light.
THE FOOT-POWERED BICYCLE
It’s the unusual invention of German designers Tom Hambrock and Juri Spetter. Besides an unusual appearance, its function is also slightly strange, as the user must run to get the bicycle moving. As soon as the riders have enough momentum(动力), they’re able to rest their feet on the back wheel and use the handlebars to control its direction.
4.What can we know about the tomato-feeding robot from the text?
A. It’s popular with lazy eaters.
B. It was the creation of a Korean.
C. It was designed for a sports event.
D. It has two plastic arms.
5.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “humid” in the text?
A. Dirty. B. Wet.
C. Unsafe. D. Uncomfortable.
6.Which invention was designed for its users’ safety?

B. The rolling bench.
C. The foot-powered bicycle.
D. The tomato-feeding robot.

C. They are powered by electricity.
D. They can serve us in different ways.

Researchers in China and the United States have developed a new cataract(白内障)treatment with cells that has restored vision in babies in a trial and may eventually be used in adults.
The treatment- by doctors and staff members at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Sichuan and Sun Yat-sen universities in China-was published in March 9 edition of the scientific journal Nature.
A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens(晶体)of an eye. Typical cataract operation involves the removal of the cloudy lens and the insertion of an artificial one. The new operation has been tested in animals and during a small, human trial. It resulted in fewer complications(并发症)than the current harmful operation, and in regrown lenses with superior visual function in all 12 of the baby cataract patients who received the procedure.
A congenital cataract- lens clouding that occurs at birth or shortly after- is important cause of blindness in children. In the new research, Kand Zhang, head of ophthalmic genetics at US San Diego’s Shiley Eye Institute, and his colleagues relied on the regrown potential of endogenous(同源的)stem cells.
According to Zhang, endogenous stem cells are different from other stem cells that are typically grown in a laboratory, transplanted into a patient, and can have risks of
immune(免疫的)rejection, infection or cancers. Zhang told CBS News, “We invented a new operation to make a very small opening at the side of a cataractous lens bag, remove the cataract inside, allow the opening to heal, and promote potential lens stem cells to regrow an entirely new lens with vision.”
The human trial involved 12 babies under the age of 2 who were treated with the new method, while 25 babies received thee standard operation care.. The latter group experienced a higher incidence of pos- operation danger, early- onset eye high blood pressure and increased lens clouding. The scientists reported fewer complications and faster healing among the 12 babies who has the new procedure.
8.What is the text mainly about?
A. The concept of the cataract
B. A new cataract treatment with stem cells
C. Bad effects of post-operation in the cataract
D. The reasons why the cataract comes into being
9.Which of the following best describe the new cataract treatment according to the passage?
A. Convenient B. Comfortable C. Cheap D. Safe
10.What can we learn about the new cataract treatment?
A. It has more risks
B. It may be used widely
C. It has been put into practice widely
D. It can only restore vision in babies
11.What does the underlined word “congenital” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. Born B. Strange C. Serious D. Dangerous.
【答案】
8.B

【名师点睛】
利用上下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义。最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。抓住所需推断词汇前后的“mean”或系动词或破折号等直接定义该词的部分。本题第4小题是词义猜测题。根据第四段中lens clouding that occurs at birth or shortly after—is a significant cause of blindness in children可知婴儿一出生就有白内障,所以划线词的意思应该是“天生的”,A项正确。

What is success? I am not going to try to explain success. I think a precise meaning is impossible! Is it winning a Gold Medal at the Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel Prize? What else? I believe personal success could be anything at all- it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or an unnoticed person, who has led a simple, quiet, sincere and happy life? The simplest definition of success,
I think, is “to set out to do something and to succeed in doing it.
The first step on the road to success starts with belief. Believe you can succeed and you will. Achieving success in whatever endeavor(努力)you choose may be the goal of life; because it gives you freedom from worry. Could that be?
Success means different things to every one of us. Some people believe it is measured in financial term; others believe it is helping others rather than helping themselves. However, most people are motivated to a great extend by public recognition. How many people are really happy? How many people are really doing what they want to with their lives? Incidentally, to imagine makes us different from animals.
Most important of all, I believe success is a matter of personal growth. If every day you are developing or growing just a millimeter, I believe one is successful. Just being a slightly better person each day for me is success. I’ve got a very long way to go them!
Finally, always remember success is a process and is not simply a matter of arriving at a destination. It’s the journey that really matters. Success is what you become in the often very difficult and dangerous journey down the river of life.
12.What is personal success according to the author?
A. Winning public recognition
B. Being an unhappy millionaire
C. Something impossible to define simply
D. Succeeding in doing what you want
13.Which plays an important role in your success?
A. Intelligence B. Confidence C. Wealth D. Kindness
14.According to he text, humans are different from animals in_______.
A. belief B. freedom C. imagination D. success
15.What can be the best title for the text?
A. What is success
B. No true success
C. How to be successful
D. Success is reaching a destination
【答案】
12.D
13.B
14.C
15.A
【解析】成功是什么?本文诠释了它的定义。
13.B
推理判断题。根据第二段第一、二句The first step on the road to success starts with belief.Believe you can succeed and you will.可知成功的关键是“自信”。故选B。
14.C
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句Incidentally,the ability to imagine makes us different from animals.可知人类与动物的最大区分就是想象力。故选C。

No matter what you are reading, it is important to enjoy what you read. Your friends may tell you the books they love, but those books might not necessarily be the ones you enjoy.
Give up books that you don’t enjoy
You may have chosen books that you are interested in, and they are right to your purpose. But while you are reading them, there may still be some books that you don’t enjoy reading. Whenever you realize that you aren’t enjoying the book you are reading, give it up. 39.

38.A
考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。不管你在读什么,享受你所读的东西是很重要的。你的朋友可能会告诉你他们喜欢的书,但那些书未必是你喜欢的书。从本段句意中可知,是要读你喜欢的书。故A符合题 意。
39.C
考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。句意:你可以选择了你感兴趣的书,符合你的阅读目的。但是当你阅读时,可能还有一些你不喜欢阅读的书。每当你意识到你不喜欢你正在读的书,就放弃它。从中可判断出读书不是小事,不喜欢的就放弃。chore,零星工作(尤指家常杂务;令人讨厌的或繁重的工作。在此指小事。
40.G
考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。 本段的主题句是“Set a reading goal”而G项就有“Having a reading goal…”最后一句“Before you read each book, ask yourself what time you need to complete this book by.”由此可知G符合本题 。故选G。
四、阅读填空
2017年全国普通高等学校招生统一考试英语(全国1卷)
41.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。
There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界) a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side (effect) such as overweight and heart disease—the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.
Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required (process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt 64 (remove) from food, the food tastes as if is missing something. As result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even (bad), the amount
of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food (be) full of fat and salt; by (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.
Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, is not good for the health.
【答案】
1.as
7.is
8.eating
9.careful
10.which
【解析】
1.考查介词。句意:这个做法最初是医学界作为一种对抗心脏病的形式开始的。as表示“做为,以...身份”,故填as。
2.考查单复数。分析语境可知作者表达的意思是“一些不为人知的副作用”,根据前文的some可知“副作用side effect”有很多,故填effects。
3.考查不定式。句意:他们被要求加工食物 require表示“要求”, require sb. to do sth.表示“要求某人做某事”,被动形式为“sb. be required to do sth.”,表示“某人被要求做某事”。故填to process。
4.考查被动语态。句意:当脂肪和盐分从食物中被去掉 分析可知fat,salt和move之间是被动关系,脂肪和盐分是被人们去掉,所以用被动语态。故填are removed。
9.考查形容词。句意:然而,注意不要走极端。分析语境可知be后面应该用形容词做表语,故填careful。
10.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:很可能摄入过多的脂肪和盐,那对健康没有好处。分析可知which is not good for the health为非限制性定语从句,先行词为前文中的have too much of both“摄入过多的脂肪和盐”。故填which。
