黑龙江省大庆铁人中学20xx-20xx学年高二上学期开学考试英语试题word版缺答案内容摘要:

his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They39。 d get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air. We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist- high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons(见识 ). We eventually arrived at my parents39。 doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories. I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence. Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of journey—and the best part of yourself. 29. Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents39。 home? A. It was less tiring. B. It would be faster and safer. C. Her kids would feel less confined. D. She felt better with other drivers nearby. 30. What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6? A. Freeways are where beauty hides. B. Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life. C. Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one39。 s health. D. One should follow side roads to watch wild animals. 31. What could be the best title for the passage? A. Charm of the Detour B. The Road to Bravery C. Creativity out of Necessity D. Road Trip and Country Life D We39。 ve reached a strange—some would say unusual—point. While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. It39。 s the good life that39。 s more likely to kill us these days. Worse, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. What39。 s going on? We really don39。 t have many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public- health campaigns since 2020 and the message is getting through—up to a point. In the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not anymore. A public- health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades. Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2020 and 2020, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has bee a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the world39。 s most body- conscious country. We know what we should be doing to lose weight—but actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower. Others blame good food. They say: it39。 s just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, plaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American- style fast food. Some also blame their parents—their genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because they39。 re normal in shape, or rather slim. It39。 s a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say—not as I do. 32. What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence? A. The good life is a greater risk than the bad life. B. Starvation is taking more people39。 s lives in the world. C. WHO report shows people39。 s unawareness of food safety. D. Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO39。 s efforts. 33. Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight? A. A lot of effective diet pills are available. B. Body image has nothing to do with good food. C. They have been made fully aware of its dangers. D. There are too many overweight people in the world. 34. The exam。
