河南省洛阳市第八中学2015-2016学年高一英语下学期第二次段考（5月）试题（无答案）阅读理解（30分）jules verne lived in a small french town named nantes in his childhood. verne ran away once as a child and came upon a small boy who was crying. the boy said he had to leave his family to go on a ship, but he didnt want to. so verne took his place on the ship. he thought he was going to explore the world, but his father caught up with the ship before it got very far and took jules home and punished him. verne said that after that he would only travel in his imagination, and he did. verne wanted to write plays. so as a young man he went to paris and hung out at local theaters and became friends with all the play-writers there. thats how he met alexander dumas. dumas wrote adventure stories that interested verne very much. verne decided to write one of his own, an adventure about the ever so popular hot air balloon trips of that time. success was not easy for him, though. he didnt know much about science and he had a wife and two children to take care of. so he would wake up early each morning and do work and research before he went to work to support his family. once he felt he knew enough about science he began to write his story in the morning. luckily, his book was finally published by a person named hetzel. jules verne was the first to write a believable story about a person going to the moon. verne used his knowledge of science to write a book about it. thanks to his book, people started thinking that going to the moon was more realistic. after jules verne died in 1905, other authors started writing about space. children would read vernes book and dream of growing up to build rockets. because of vernes book, the dream of going to the moon was reached.21. the authors purpose in writing this passage is to _.a. discuss the adventures jules verne had in his lifeb. explain the reason why jules verne became a writerc. show jules vernes knowledge of scienced. give a brief introduction to jules verne22. the story in paragraph 1 shows that the young jules verne was _.a. adventurousb. friendlyc. naughtyd. shy23. from the last paragraph we can infer that _.a. verne was the first person to go to the moon in the worldb. vernes books were the most popular ones with children at that timec. without vernes books people would never have dreamed of visiting the moond. verne probably mentioned rockets in his story about traveling to the moon24. which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?a. verne wrote many believable novels about people visiting the moon.b. vernes first adventure story was about hot air balloon trips.c. vernes idea of traveling on a ship was frustrated by his father.d. verne showed much interest in the adventure stories written by dumas.banyone can start an argument, but it takes a strong person to stop the argument. many people want to be the stronger person, but they often lack the know-how. if for you, the question of how to stop an argument is cooling yourself off and showing your ability to resolve conflict, follow these steps and begin the process of renewing your relationship. step one take a time-out from the person and the argument. go and get a cup of coffee, go to the bathroom or take a drive. do whatever you can to get yourself out of the place where the argument is taking place. remember not to leave the argument unresolved and walk away; just leave for long enough to cool off and get back together later. step two plan to finish the argument at a time when you can both be uninterrupted for 30 minutes. an uninterrupted 30 minutes is long enough for you both to share your feelings and discuss why you feel that way. step three think and plan during your time-out so that youre prepared for your meeting when it does take place. keep yourself from remembering the other persons past mistakes or from making personally pointed attacks. do this by keeping your focus on the issue at hand and always coming back to that issue. step four keep the problem between the two of you. regardless of how badly your feelings are hurt or how much you want to discuss this problem with your other friends, refrain (克制) for the sake of your friendship. stopping an argument is hard enough with other people getting involved. step five be open and honest with one another, be willing to show your vulnerability (脆弱性) and be open to the fact that you may be wrong. no one is right all the time, and your argument is more resolvable if you keep from feeling like you have to defend your every move. step six say “im sorry” even if you think youre justified in what you said or did. just hearing those words has a healing effect on every relationship, and most of the time we wound each other without being aware of it.25. the authors purpose in writing this passage is mainly to _.a. introduce the steps to resolve conflictb. tell readers how to cool themselves offc. tell readers how to become a strong mand. state that arguments are useless in resolving conflict26. when an argument happens, one of the things youd better do is to _.a. find a friend for helpb. order the other to shut upc. have a bath to cool yourself offd. leave and never meet the other again27. which statement is not the authors attitude to resolving conflict?a. to renew the relationship. b. to attack the other.c. to admit ones own mistakes. d. to apologize to the other.the use of the word “imitation” (模仿) reminds me that we ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime or violence. first, there is always a risk of children acting out scenes which could be dangerous. for example, i remember a woman who was head of a middle school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window at some children who were on the playground and saw them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck and then pulling the rope over the branch of a tree; fortunately she had enough time to get there before the child was hanged. i particularly remember a film in which the hero who had been imprisoned escaped by electrocuting (用电刑处死) his guard, and the technique of how this was done was shown in detail. this is the kind of scene which should be cut. in films for young people and adults we always tried to keep off the screen with details of criminal techniques, such as how to open a locked door with a piece of hard plastic or how to open a safe; if we were consulted before production, i used to advise that these kinds of details should not be shown. when i gave talks in prisons about censoring (审查) films, i had full support for this, since fathers, who were in prison for criminal offences, did not want their children to turn to crime. every time i gave a talk in a prison, someone used to mention the french film rififi made by jules dassin in 1954. this eye-catching film showed in great detail a robbery of a jewelers shop. the robbery lasting about half an hour and backed only by natural sound is one of the most brilliant film sequences of all time. i remember our discussion at the time. we thought that the robbery could only be accomplished by the use of advanced and obviously expensive equipment and that only the most experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it; we believed therefore that it was relatively safe. when talking with prisoners some years later, i learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied, so perhaps we were wrong.28. the author mainly wants to tell us that _.a. it is dangerous for children to imitate what they see on the screenb. the details of a crime should not be shown on the screenc. children should not see the details of a criminal techniqued. children should not imitate what they see on the screen29. parents in prison agreed to film censorship because _.a. they had been given a talk on it by the authorb. they had made mistakes by imitating the crimes in films c. they didnt want their children to follow them into crimed. the crime on the screen could be imitated without difficulty30. which of the following statements about rififi is not true according to the passage?a. the film showed the technique in detail.b. the technique of the robbery has not been imitated.c. the robbery shown needs experience and skills to do.d. some very expensive tools were used in the robbery.31. it can be inferred from the passage that _.a. only people in prison support film censorshipb. only children imitate what they have seen on the screenc. children have been prevented from seeing films with criminal detailsd. it is hard for children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginarydit is 7 oclock in the morning. you check yourself in the mirror, adjust your collar, and consider the busy day ahead. but at least you know that the stress wont damage your health, for this is no ordinary set of clothes you are wearing. set within the fabric are numerous sensors, constantly monitoring your vital signs. if danger signs are detected, the garment is programmed to contact your doctor and send a text message telling you to take it easy. garments that can measure a wearers body temperature or trace their heart activity are just entering the market, but the european project biotex weaves new functions into smart textiles. miniaturised biosensors in a textile patch can now analyse body fluids, even a tiny drop of sweat, and provide a much better assessment of someones health.jean luprano, a researcher at the swiss centre for electronics and microtechnology (csem), coordinates the biotex project. “one of the most obvious applications for smart fabrics is in the medical field，” he says. “there has been a good deal of progress with physiological measurements, body temperature or electrocardiograms(心电图). but no one has yet developed biochemical sensing techniques that can take measurements from fluids like sweat and blood. we are developing a suite of sensors that can be integrated into a textile patch. the patch is a sensing and processing unit, adaptable to target different body fluids and biochemical species. at the very least, some basic biochemical analyses could complement the physiological measurements that can already be monitored. in some circumstances, fluidic analysis may be the only way to get information on a patients health status.”32what is the text mainly about? asmart clothes that track your health.bhow to make your day stress free.cnew advancement in the medical
