I knew that I had practised this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if 47 . Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically. My eyes burned holes into the page in front of me. There was no 48 that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this promise to myself, I leaned（斜靠） 49 and focused carefully on the music. 50 I came to the end of the page, a warning 51 inside my head: DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE! Needless to say, I 52 myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “paging-turning” feat（技艺）, I finished the 53 of the piece without making a single mistake.

Twelve women have won the Nobel Prize for science, one of the highest honors in the world. Some women scientists never married, some worked with their husbands, and others raised large families. It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists. In the early 1800s in England, Mary Anning became one of the first women recognized for her discoveries about the ancient history of the earth. Mary and her father collected fossils（化石）in their village on the south coast of Great Britain. Fossils are parts of plants or animals that have been saved in rocks for millions of years. When she was only twelve years old, Mary became the first person to find the almost complete skeletons（骨架）of several animals that no longer existed on earth. She didn’t become famous for her discoveries at that time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family. In 1891, a young Polish woman named Marie Sklodowska traveled to Paris to study physics. She did so because she could not get a college education in Poland. She began working in the laboratory of a man named Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together. They received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 along with another scientist. Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Nobel Prize in 1911, this time for Chemistry. Marie Curie was one of the few women at the time who became famous as a scientist. 56. The author believes that women scientists ______. A. have more opportunities to become successful B. can not get the highest honors in the world C. go through difficulties to be successful D. had better pay more attention to their families 57. Mary Anning was one of the first women to ______. A. win the Nobel Prize for Science after getting married B. make achievements in the study of ancient Earth C. research animals and their bones D. study the mystery of all kinds of plants 58. Mary Anning failed to be famous for her discoveries of fossils when she was 12 because ______. A. nobody recognized them B. they weren’t worth studying C. she didn’t want to be known to anyone D. she sold them for money 59. What can we learn about Marie Sklodowska? A. She studied physics in Poland and got a college education. B. She received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 on her own. C. She only got one Nobel Prize during her lifetime. D. She made many discoveries together with her husband after she got married. 60. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Ancient discoveries. B. Women scientists. C. Successful marriages. D. Different prizes. B When our second child was born, Jim and I thought she was perfect, but the doctor pointed out that her feet were turned inward. “Left uncorrected, it would be a problem,” he told us. We decided to do anything we could to help our baby. When she was only two weeks old, I brought her back to the doctor, just as he had directed, and the doctor put her tiny feet into casts（模子）, her precious baby toes just barely visible. Because she was growing, I had to take her back to the doctor every two weeks to have each foot recast. Eventually the casting was finished and it was time for corrective shoes and bars. Jim and I watched with hope and concern as she struggled to walk. Those first, awkward（笨拙的）steps made us so proud. By the time she entered preschool, her steps had appeared quite normal. Encouraged by her progress, we expected her to become much stronger. When she turned six, we persuaded her to attend skating lessons and soon she was very good. Of course, she had to work hard at every new movement, but she loved the ice and her dedication（奉献）paid off. At fifteen, she competed in both pair skating and the ladies’ single skating at the 1988 World Junior Championships in Australia, winning both events! At the World Championships in 1991, she won the ladies’ single skating. Then we found ourselves filled with love and admiration in France, at the 1992 Winter Olympics, as our daughter, Kristi Yamaguchi won the gold medal. I thought back to the early years of challenge for Kristi. During those years, we didn’t expect gold medals and professional career ahead of her. We respected her strength and hard work. In our eyes, Kristi had always walked in the life with the grace（优美）of a true champion. 61. According to the first paragraph, all the followings are true EXCEPT that _________. A. Jim is the author’s husband B. the author’s second child is female C. the author’s second child’s feet were normal D. the author’s second child’s feet were unusual 62. When the author’s daughter went to preschool, ________. A. she tried to learn to walk B. she could not walk at all C. she walked with other’s help D. she seemed to walk normally 63. Paragraph 5 mainly tells us ____________. A. the author’s daughter was worried about by her parents B. the author’s daughter was hard-working and succeeded finally C. the author’s daughter spent a lot of money in learning to skate D. the author’s daughter was encouraged to learn to skate by her parents 64. The author’s daughter won the gold medal in the Olympic Games at the age of _______. A. 19 B. 16 C. 18 D. 15 65. From this passage, we can know that the author was very _________. A. unlucky and sad B. kind and helpful C. happy and proud D. anxious and hopeless C As parents we like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients（营养）they need. Children need two to three kinds of vegetables every day. A simple way to get children to eat vegetables is eating them ourselves. Following our example, they may start eating vegetables themselves. Don’t say things like that, “If you eat your vegetables, you can have dessert.” These methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them to hate vegetables more. Giving your child new varieties of foods will help her/him develop a taste for trying new things. Sometimes the simple things just don’t work. We have to start becoming a little creative when it comes to making our children eat these vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when they are small, they will hopefully help them lean to love vegetables. Think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables. For example, cut up vegetables like carrots, cucumbers, celery and assemble（聚集）them in a creative way on a plate with dip for an afternoon snack. Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping the vegetables or by putting the cheese right on top of the cooked or uncooked vegetables. If you prefer, you can also add a teaspoon of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to give them a little sweeter taste. Doing this shouldn’t lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount. If you have a child that refuses to eat vegetables, some of these suggestions I’ve listed will help to turn that around. In the end, you’re not just getting them to eat vegetables；you’re helping them live a healthier lifestyle. 66. Children need two to three kinds of vegetables every day because ________. A. their parents like to make sure that their children are eating well B. they can get different nutrients by eating different kinds of vegetables C. parents like to make sure that their children are fond of eating vegetables D. if they eat these vegetables, they can get dessert 67. According to the passage, all the following ways to get children to eat vegetables are creative EXCEPT _______. A. making vegetables much sweeter B. putting cheese on top of vegetables C. preparing carrots in an attractive way D. dipping vegetables in cheese sauce while eating 68. If you want your children to develop the habit of eating vegetables, you should______. A. be very patient with them B. set an example to them C. give dessert to them as a award D. cut vegetables into different types 69. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage? A. Children need to eat vegetables every day. B. Parents should help children live a healthy lifestyle. C. Sugar can make children keep a healthy diet. D. It is necessary to think of creative ways to make children to eat vegetables. 70. The best title for this passage would probably be “_________”. A. Vegetables Are Important for Children B. A Lot of Children Like Eating Vegetables C. Different Kinds of Vegetables for Children D. How to Make Your Children Eat Vegetables D Does technology pose a threat to the purity of Chinese language? Many Chinese use instant messenger tools such as MSN or QQ, listen to music on MP3 players and log on the Internet using ADSL — most without knowing the literal Chinese translation of the abbreviations（缩略语）. But they don’t have to, as many English letters have become part of the local lexicon. A dozen abbreviations including GDP, NBA, IT, MP3, QQ, DVD and CEO are among the 5,000 most-frequently used words in the Chinese-language media last year, according to a report on the 2006 Language Situation in China, which was released yesterday in Beijing. The report said some parents are so keen on English letters that a couple tried to name their baby “@”, claiming the character used in email addresses reflects their love for the child. While the “@” is obviously familiar to Chinese e-mail users, they often use the English word “at” to pronounce it, which with a drawn out “T” sounds something like ai ta, or “love him”, to Putonghua speakers. The study collected more than 1 billion language samples from newspapers, magazines, TV, radio and websites. The annual report is jointly compiled（编撰）by the Ministry of Education and the State Language Commission. “Nowadays, more and more English abbreviations are being used in Chinese, making them an important part of the contemporary language,” said Hou Min, a professor at Communication University of China. “The abbreviations have gained popularity because of the ease of usage,” Hou said. For example, DNA is much simpler to use than its Chinese version tuoyang hetang hesuan. “As more Chinese people learn foreign languages, especially English, in recent years, using abbreviations has become a trend among educated people,” she said. Some language scholars fear such usage will pollute the purity of Chinese and cause confusion in communication. 71. MSN is a kind of ________. A. MP4 player B. instant messenger tool C. photography making tool D. video game software 72. The report on the Language Situation in China is ________. A. compiled by the Ministry of Education alone B. sponsored by Sina C. compiled every two years D. compiled every year 73. Why does the author use the example of a couple who tried to name their baby “@”? A. To show Chinese is badly polluted by English. B. To express the writer’s love for the child. C. To indicate “@” is a very common sign among the email users. D. To show some parents are very enthusiastic over English letters. 74. Why are the English abbreviations becoming more and more popular? A. English is the most common language in the world. B. Using English abbreviation is a fashion. C. English abbreviation are good to pronounce. D. English abbreviations are easy and simple to use. 75. ________ is the best title. A. English abbreviations become popular in China B. Some Language Scholars Fear the English Abbreviations C. Language Situation in China D. English Abbreviations May Cause Confusion in Communication 兖州高二英语检测试题 第Ⅱ卷（共45分） 注意事项： 1．用黑色或蓝色钢笔、圆珠笔答在答题卷上，答在试题卷上不得分。 2．答卷前将密封线内的项目填写清楚。 题号 第一节 第二节 总分 得分 评卷人 得 分 第四部分 写作（满分45分） 第一节 阅读 表 关于同志近三年现实表现材料材料类招标技术评分表图表与交易pdf视力表打印pdf用图表说话 pdf 达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，然后用英语简洁回答文后所给的五个问题。 Recent studies show that many young people in the United States never finish high school. Some researchers say about fifteen to twenty percent of public school students do not complete their education. But many other experts and policymakers believe that for the past twenty years, the dropout rate has been around thirty percent. For Latino and black students, the numbers are even higher. Researchers say almost half of them leave schoo1. At the same time, almost half the states let students leave school before the age of eighteen without letting their parents know. Finding a good job without a high school education is _________. A recent study found that almost half of all dropouts aged sixteen to twenty-four did not have a job. The lack of high school education can also lead to other problems. An estimated two-thirds of prisoners in the United States dropped out of high schoo1. The main reason why many students drop out of school is that they are failing. Many are bored with their classes or feel disconnected from their school and teachers. Some students feel that educators place low expectations on them. There have been efforts to increase graduation rates through education reforms during the past twenty years. Some communities are working on dropout prevention programs. These include alternative（其他的）high schools to meet special needs. In addition, experts suggest “early warning systems” to help identify（识别）young school children at the risk of dropping out of high schoo1. They say schools should also keep regular contact with parents, especially if their children are missing school often. 76. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.) ___________________________________________________________________________ 77. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

No matter what is troubling you, don’t blame yourself for not doing well. I suggest you communicate your trouble to your teachers and classmates, as they may help you out of the tough situation. You are not supposed to think about your exams all the time, which only makes you more depressed. Instead, you should think about the progress you have made in your study, which will surely increase your own confidence. In addition, I advise you to do more exercise in your spare time to relieve your stress, because sports will also help you sleep better at night. Only when you feel energetic can you concentrate on your study. I hope you will get out of your trouble soon and live happily. Yours sincerely, Li Ming 附：听力录音文本材料稿 Text 1 W: It’s pouring outside.

I’d like to tell you something about the student clubs in our school. Let’s begin with our reading club. It was first started in 1968, and has 90 members now. Every Thursday afternoon, they gather together to exchange their ideas on books. And you may join them to share your views. If you are a music lover, come to our music club. This club has a total of 85 members who usually meet on Saturday. Sometimes they go to the concerts together and sometimes they give performances themselves. For those who enjoy outdoor sports, the bicycle club can be a good choice. Trips are usually organized on Wednesday and last at least two hours. Together with 50 cyclists, you can not only see the beautiful nature, but also make yourself stronger. Of course, there are also many other clubs in our school. For more information, please go to the school website. 姓名 班级 考号 座号 密 封 线 内 不 准 答 题 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 密封线内不准答题
