  高 二 上 学 期 第 二 次 双 周 考英 语 试 题Ⅰ.阅读理解（每题 2.5 分，共 35 分阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。ASeptember 21 ,2050- At a press conference today it is announced that the first tourist heading for Mars will be the 38-year-old US businessman Patrick Clifford. He will leave Earth in the launching window of June 2052 and set his foot on the surface of Mars in November,together with the other 6 astronauts assigned for the mission to further explore the planet.Patrick has two years of training to get ready for the trip. Not only will he spend five months in getting to Mars, but another 600 days there before he can go back home. Patrick said excitedly:“This has been my dream since I was four, and seeing the first man on Mars 20 years ago made me realise that it was possible.”To be able to pay the $ 1.3 billion for his ticket for the trip, Patrick sold his majority stake(股份) in the company his father had built. “I know that my father would have been proud of me if he had still been alive today, and he knew what this means to me,”said Patrick.There is no risk though that you will find Patrick begging in your street corner when he comes back,but it is said that he was paid twice as ,much for his part of the company.So, how is he going to spend his 600 days on the red planet?“Well, since I don't have a job when I get back after selling the company,I have plenty of time to come up with a new business idea," he said. If he brings a shovel (铁锹) he can start building the first hotel there, but maybe he shouldn't expect too . many guests until someone can offer a cheaper ticket.1. How long will Patrick Clifford be away before he comes back?A. About five months.   B. About two years.   C. About 600 days.   D. About 750 days.2.The underlined part in paragraph 3 means that         .A. the trip will turn Patrick into a beggarB. Patrick will get much money from the tripC. we needn't worry about Patrick's economic conditionD. it's likely that Patrick will be very poor after he comes back3. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Patrick is an optimistic man.           B. A total of six people will go to Mars.C. Patrick's father felt excited at the news.  D. Patrick will spend all his money on the trip.BIn the future your automobile will run on water instead of gas! You will be able to buy a supercomputer that fits in your pocket! You might even drive a flying car!Not all past predictions have been proven wrong. A few of them have been surprisingly accurate. Some great thinkers predicted the arrival of the credit card, the fax machine and even the Internet years before they happened.But for each prediction that has come true,some others have missed by a mile. Many of these predictions didn't consider how people would want to use the technology or whether people really needed these high-tech things in their lives or not,. Let's look at some predictions from the not-too-distant past.Robot helpersWhere's the robot in my kitchen?Nowhere, of course. And he's probably not coming anytime soon. Robots do exist today,but mostly in factories and other working environments.Back in the 1950s, however, people said that by now personal robots would be in most people' s homes.So why hasn't it happened? Maybe because robots are still too expensive and clumsy(笨拙的). And probably the idea of robots cooking our dinners and washing our clothes is just too strange. At home we seem to be doing fine without them.Telephones of tomorrowIn 1964 an American company introduced the video telephone. They said by the year 2000 most people would have a video phone in their homes. But of course the idea hasn't caught on yet.Why? The technology worked fine, but it overlooked something obvious: people desire for privacy. Would you want to have a video phone conversation w1th someone after you just stepped out of the shower? Probably not- it could be uncomfortable! Just because technology doesn't always mean people will want to use it.And finally, how about that crazy prediction of the flying car? It's not so crazy any more!But a flying car remains one of the most wonderful technology ideas to catch our imagination. Keep watching the news or perhaps the sky outside your window to see what the future will bring.4. Robot helpers haven't been used in most people' s homes because          .A. using this kind of robots at home is simply a waste of time and moneyB. this kind of robots hasn't been developed yetC. people find it difficult to control this kind of robotsD. this kind of robots won't bring people practical use5. The underlined phrase“caught on”in paragraph 6 probably means “        ”A. become popular     B. become enjoyable      C. come into sight     D. come to life6. What does the author think of the flying car?A. It is too difficult to imagine.          B. It is too crazy to realise.C. It is likely to appear in the future.     D. It has been the focus of the news.7. The passage mainly deals with          .A. predictions that catch our imagination      B. predictions that haven't come trueC. new technology that can benefit our life    D. new technology that is in wide useCHave you ever run out of coffee or tea?Found no eggs in the fridge? No bread for the sandwich and the nearest shop is too far away? Well,all that can change in the future.If all goes well, the intelligent future kitchen will soon help solve all your problems. In the future, all kitchen units will be connected to the Internet. The intelligent future kitchen will give wise advice on planning your menu for the day. Worried about your weight?

The animal tests showed it was completely effective in mice and monkeys. So Tu  volunteered to be the first human subject. “As head of this research group, I had the responsibility,”she said. It was safe with her, so she continued to try it out with more human patients.In 2007， her office was in an old apartment building in Beijing. Before 2011,Tu Y ouyou had been described as“almost completely forgotten by people". Yet in 2015，the Nobel Prize committee said her discoveries had given the world powerful new ways to fight a powerful disease which affected hundreds of millions of people every year.

Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom,“I'm going to find a better spot for us to camp."” and walked away.With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed toa high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing butthe forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realised that she waslost."Tom!" she cried.“Help!”No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom, Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling (滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream, To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse， thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.注意:续写词数应为150左右。But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again.                                       It was daybreak when Jane woke up.                                                                                高 二 上 学 期 第 二 次 双 周 考 英 语 试 题 答 案 Ⅰ.阅读理解（每题 2.5 分，共 35 分） 1-5 DCADA 6-10 CBABC 11-14 DBAC Ⅱ.七选五（每题 2.5 分，共 25 分） 15-19 FCGAE 20-24 DECGA Ⅲ.完型填空（每题 1 分，共 30 分）Ⅳ.读后续写（满分 30 分）
