The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转) of the earth. At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 in the morning and sets at 6 in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(倾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than night. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.
1.When the Western Hemisphere is having day, the Eastern Hemisphere is having ______.
A.both day and night B.day C.neither day nor night D.night
2.A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ______ of the earth.
A.the pushing B.the pulling C.the spinning D.the passing
3.At the equator day is as long as night ______.
A.sometimes B.never C.usually D.always
4.When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets _____ sunlight.
A.less B.more C.all D.no
5.When it is winter in China, ______.
A. the USA is tilted toward the sun
B. the South Pole is tilted away from the sun
C. the North Pole is tilted toward the sun
D. the North Pole is tilted away from the sun

When we meet someone for the first time， we usually get an uncertain sense of what kind of person they are by the way they shake hands， talk， or walk． In the age of social networking， however， first impressions are sometimes made even before we actually meet someone in person - that is， by looking at their profile photos（头像）． 1.
In the study， a group of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania in the US used software to analyze the profile photos of 66，000 users of US social platform Twitter and 3，200 of their tweets． 2.The researchers wanted to find out if there was a relation between a person's profile photo and personality．
According to the results， open people are more likely to pose in an unusual way and use objects such as glasses or a guitar in their profile photo because they enjoy new and exciting experiences． Meanwhile， sensitive people often hide their negative emotions．3.Instead， they use an image of something like a pet， a car or a building． That's because sensitive people are strongly influenced by the strong social standard．
4.For example， outgoing people are found to have the most colorful profile images， as they want to emphasize their personality and show themselves off， the researchers wrote．
Although social media photos "usually represent oneself， they also allow a user to shape his or her own personality，" according to the researchers．5.After all， first impressions always last．
A．They want to show themselves off．
B．They try to avoid showing their faces．
C．We should make our profile photos available to others．
D．Some users were asked to complete a survey about their personality types．
E．According to a recent study， these social images say a lot about our personality．
F．When choosing a profile photo， we should think about what image we'd like to convey．
G．The colors used in profile photos also give us some information about the photo's owner．

Have you ever thought about what determines the way we are when we grow up? Remember the TV program Seven Up? It started following the lives of a group of children in 1973. We first meet them as wide-eyed seven-year-olds and catch up with them at seven-year intervals: nervous 14-year-olds, serious 21-year-olds and then grown-ups.
Some of the stories are inspiring, others sad, but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the children’s early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives. For example, at seven, Tony is a lively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver. When he grows up, he goes on to do both. How about Niki? She says, “I would like to find out about the moon.” And she goes on to become a space scientist. As a child, soft-spoken Bruce says he wants to help “poor children” and ends up teaching in India.
But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern, the program would be far less interesting than it actually was. It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that made the program so interesting. Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when they grew up? Are children influenced by what their parents do, by what they see on television or by what their teachers say? How great is the effect of a single important event? Many film directors, including Steven Spielberg, say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their lives. Dr. Margaret McAllister, who has done a lot of research in this area, thinks that the major factors are parents, friends and their wider society.
1.What does the text mainly discuss?
A. New ways to make a TV program interesting.
B. The importance of TV programs to children.
C. Different ways to make childhood dreams come true.
D. The influence of childhood experience on future lives.
2. What does the underlined word “influenced” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Impressed. B. Improved. C. Affected. D. Attracted.
3. What are the examples in Paragraph 2 meant to show?
A. Many people’s childhood hopes are related to their future jobs.
B. There are many poor children in India who need help.
C. Children have different dreams about their future.
D. A lot of people are very sad in their childhood.
4.Spielberg’s story is meant to show that _______.
A. going to a movie at an early age helps a child learn about society
B. a single childhood event may decide what one does as a grown-up
C. parents and friends can help a child grow up properly
D. films have more influence on a child than teachers do

Today we talk about a time when half the world is waking from the dark, cold winter months. Spring! We often describe “spring” as a time of rebirth, renewal and awakening. Many trees are blossoming and early flowers are pushing through the earth. Things are coming to life!
But the word “spring” is not just a season. It is also a verb that means something going on or coming out quickly. When you put “spring” and “life” together, you will get “spring to life”. This expression means something suddenly becomes very active or perhaps seems more alive! You may “spring to life” after hearing that a distant friend will be visiting you. Or maybe your favorite soccer team finally “sprang to life” in the second half, played well and won the match.
Now, besides being a season and a verb the noun “spring” refers to a metal coil (线圈) that is wound tightly. When the coil unwinds, it often jumps. So, we often say a person “has a spring in his step” if he is lively and active. He might even appear to jump, or bounce a little when he walks.
There is another way we use “spring” as a description. In the case of a “spring chicken”, “spring” means young. However, “spring chicken” is also an informal, humorous way to refer to someone who isn’t young at all. So, we use this expression in the negative form, as in “no spring chicken”. For example, let’s say you know an 85-year-old man who decides to run a marathon, even though he has never exercised before. You could say, “That’s amazing! After all, he’s no spring chicken.”
But be careful when using this expression. It could be a little disrespectful. Let’s say your boss shows you a picture of his wife, and you say, “Wow, she’s no spring chicken.” That response would be disrespectful and a bad career move.
1.What does “spring” mean in the expression “spring to life”?
A. The season after winter.
B. Being young and healthy.
C. A tightly wound metal coil.
D. To occur or appear quickly.
2.What is the passage mainly about?
A. The origin of the word “spring”
B. The meaning of the season “spring”.
C. Some expressions with the word “spring”.
D. Some characteristics of the season “spring”.
3.How does someone feel when he “has a spring in his step”？
A. Angry B. Surprised
C. Happy D. Frightened
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Being young is a great advantage in career development.
B. Women may feel offended when described as “no spring chicken”.
C. Using “spring-related” expressions in conversations seems impolite.
D. Expressions with the word “spring” are always disrespectful to others.

高二英语完型填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
We discuss the issue of when to help a patient die, which was not talked about openly and little was written about it.
The best way to bring the problem into focus is to describe two patients whom I cared for. The first, formerly a nurse, had an automobile accident. And there she was: in coma, on a breathing machine. One day, her husband and son came to see me. They told me their wife and mother was obviously going to die; she was a nurse and had told her family that she never wanted this kind of terrible death, being maintained by machines. I told them that while I respected their view, there was nothing deadly about her situation. The kidney(肾) failure she had was just the kind for which the artificial (人造的) kidney was most effective. While possibly a bit reassured, they were disappointed. Here was the head surgeon seemingly determined to keep everybody alive, no matter what.
Within a few days the patient awoke from her coma. About six months later, the door of my office opened and in walked a gloriously fit woman. After some cheery words of appreciation, the father and son asked to speak to me alone. As soon as the door closed, both men became quite tearful. All that came out was, “We want you to know how wrong we were.”
The second patient was an 85-year-old lady whose hair caught fire while she was smoking. She arrived with a deep burn; I knew it would surely be deadly. At the time, there was a class discussing medical ethics(道德). The instructor asked me if I had any sort of ethical problem I could bring up for discussion. I described the case and asked the students their opinion. After the discussion, I made a remark that was, when looking back, a serious mistake. I said, “I’ll talk with the nurses before we decide.” The instructor and the students were shocked: “You mean this is a real patient?” The teacher of ethics was not accustomed to being challenged by actuality.
A day or two later, when the lady was making no progress and was suffering terribly, we began to back off in treatment. Soon she died quietly and not in pain. As a reasonable physician, you had better move ahead and do what you would want done for you. And don’t discuss it with the world first. There is a lesson here for everybody. Assisting people to leave this life requires strong judgment and long experience to avoid its misuse.
1.Why were the first patient’s husband and son disappointed at first?
A.Their wife and mother was going to die.
B.The doctor didn’t do as they asked to.
C.Their wife and mother had to receive an artificial kidney.
D.The doctor scolded them for their cruelty.
2.The author discussed with the students________.
A.how to help patients end their lives
B.the importance of saving patients’ lives
C.whether it is ethical to keep a patient alive on a breathing machine
D.the case about an old lady
3.Why was the instructor of ethnics shocked?
A.He had never discussed helping a patient in real life to die.
B.He thought it was cruel to assist the old lady to die.
C.He was not accustomed to talking about ethnical problems.
D.He felt he was challenged by the author.
4.The author suggested that doctors _______ before they assist a patient in killing himself.
A.discuss it with the others first
B.make sure there is no other choice left
C.be required to do so first by the patient
D.give the patient enough medicine
5.Which of the following can best describe the author?
A.Cruel. B.Determined.
C.Professional. D.Considerate.
