13、uman and mouse, get a good nights sleep.What should be no surprise is that movement can calm someone. Think of how many times youve fallen asleep on a train. But can motion really cause a nap, and make for a deeper sleep?To find out, researchers invited 18 healthy volunteers for a sleepover. So they
14、 came to the lab and slept one time on the motionless, normal bed. And one night where they got rocked. said Aurore Perrault, a sleep researcher at the University of Geneva in Switzerland.And what we find is that when compared to a motionless night, a whole night of rocking sleep has a beneficial ef
15、fect not only on sleep beginning but also on sleep continuity.Subjects who were rocked also did better on a memory test the next morning than the stiller sleepers. In the second study, Kompotis, a student at the University of Lausanne, rocked a group of mice.Whether rocking affects sleep in other sp
16、ecies was never before discussed.

Though mice were rocked four times faster than their human counterpartsa freque

22、cord for women. Her father checked the Guinness World Records and found that the farthest any woman had run was 80 miles.As a freshman in high school, Patti announced, Im going to run from Orange County up to San Francisco.(A distance of 400 miles.) As a sophomore （二年级学生）， she went on, Im going to r
23、un to Portland, Oregon. (Over 1, 500-miles.)As a junior, Ill run to St. Louis. (About 2, 000 miles.)As a senior, Ill run to the White House. (More than 3, 000 miles away.)In view of her handicap(缺陷）， Patti was as ambitious as she was enthusiastic, but she said she looked at the handicap of being an
24、epileptic as simplyan inconvenience. She focused not on what she had lost, but on what she had left.That year she completed her run to San Francisco wearing a T-shirt that read,I Love Epileptics. In her sophomore year, Pattis classmates got behind her. They built a large poster that read Run, Patti,
25、 Run! On her second marathon(马拉松），a doctor told her she had to stop.Doctor, you dont understand, she said. Im doing it to break the chains on the brains that limit so many others. She finished the run to Portland, completing her last mile with the governor of Oregon. After four months of almost cont

30、wn virus as its full effects remain to be seen. Fever, coughing, sore throat, difficulty breathing the NCPs symptoms are similar to the common cold or the flu, but its potentially more dangerous.Viruses could be deadly, like HIV and Ebola. But what are viruses? How can they cause so much trouble?Vir
31、uses are non-living organisms (有机体) approximately one-millionth of an inch long. Unlike human cells or bacteria, they cant reproduce on their own. Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.Viruses can infect every living thing from plants and animals down
32、to the smallest bacteria. For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life. Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infections trigger no noticeable reaction.Viruses lie around our environment all of the time, waiting for a host cel
33、l to come along. They can enter our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin. Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect. For example, HIV, which causes AIDS, attacks the T-cells of the immune system.But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from? Until now, no cl
34、ear explanation for their origin exists. “Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult”, Ed Rybicki, a virologist(病毒学家) at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, “because viruses dont leave fossils and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves within
35、the cells theyve invaded”.However, there are three main hypotheses (假说) to explain the origin of viruses. First, viruses started as independent organisms, then became parasites (寄生者). Second, viruses evolved from pieces of DNA or RNA that “escaped”from larger organisms. Third, viruses co-evolved wit
36、h their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.For the time being, these are only theories. The technology and evidence we have today cannot be used to test these theories and identify the most plausible explanation. Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers. Or futu

Viruses are really small living organisms.C. Viruses cant reproduce unless they find a host cell.D. Viruses enter

They evolved from parasites into independent organisms.C. They evolved from the T-cells in animals.D. They evolved along with their
39、 host cells.29. The underlined word “plausible” in the last paragraph probably means.A. reasonable B. commonC. creative D. unbelievable30. What can we conclude from the text?A. Viruses live longer in human host cells than in animals.B. Viruses will become more like bacteria as they evolve.C. It may
40、take a long time to understand the origin of viruses.D. The author is optimistic about future virus research.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to improve your studies scientificallyOur brain can possibly memorize 2. 5 petabytes(千兆）of information.

63、ic bags. Litter is a big problem for our environment, but it is a problem that individuals can easily do something about. Not littering at all or cleaning up litter, such as cigarette butts and plastic bags, greatly improves the quality of our environment. Although cigarette butts are small, they ar
64、e bad for the environment. Over 1,600 billion cigarettes are smoked each year in China and large quantities of the butts are thrown away. Worldwide, about 4.5 trillion butts are littered every year. Apart from the fact that butts spoil the beauty of the environment, they contain some very toxic chem
65、icals. These find their way into the water supply where they decrease the quality of the water and endanger plants and animals that live there. Because there are so many butts and because they can take up to 5 years to break down, the toxic chemicals add up to a large amount. So, if people have to s
66、moke, they should not throw away the butts but put them in the rubbishbininstead. Plastic bags are another common form of litter that is a danger to the environment. There are several reasons for this. They are made from oil and gas, which are non-renewable resources, if they are not recycled, these
67、 resources are lost to us. In China, 2 billion plastic bags are used every day. An enormous number of these become litter. This is a huge problem because they last from 20 to 1,000 years in the environment. They float easily in air and water and travel long distances. They find their way to rivers,
68、parks, beaches and oceans. Plastic bags kill up to one million seabirds, 100,000 sea mammals and countless fish each year worldwide. When the animal dies and breaks down, the plastic bag can become free again to kill another animal. It is up to people not to let plastic bags become litter. It would
69、be better if they used fewer and recycled them. Cleaning upyourcigarette butts and plastic bags would improve the environment. The earth would be a better place because it would be less polluted. And we would know that we were doing something to look after our planet. However, I believe the best sol
70、ution would be not to smoke or use plastic bags at all.泰宁一中2019-2020学年上学期第二阶段考试高二英语科试卷参考答案第一部分 听力1.5分 共30分15 ACABC 610 ABBAB 1115 CABCA 1620 CBACA第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）第一节 （共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分） 2123 B A A 2426 D A C 2730C D A C 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）3135 C F D E A第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1

75、 people can help deal with them. Cigarette butts, which destroy the beautiful environment and endanger life with poisonous chemicals, should be put into dustbins. Plastic bags, made from non-renewable resources, can exist in different places for a long time, killing countless animals. So people had better use fewer and recycle them. Cleaning up butts and bags will make the world better.
