Don’t have plenty of time for reading?If you are interested in non-fiction books,here are good choices for you.

A Room of One’s Own

This essay by English writer Virginia Woolf is based on her several lectures given to two women’s colleges at Cambridge University in 1928.In it,Woolf describes that it’s circumstance not talent alone that allows men to be more successful at writing.Women,in other words,spend so much time cooking,cleaning,and tending to their children that they have no time left for art.To write well,therefore,a woman must have “a room of her own”.While on its surface,this essay appears to be only about writing,it is actually about wealth and class,freedom and imprisonment,and the power struggle between sexes.

The Art of War

Written by ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Zi,The Art of War is widely considered to be one of the best books about military strategy in human history.Consisting of 13 chapters,each dealing with a separate aspect about how to fight a war,the book has been translated into many languages and has thousands of editions.For centuries,it has been used to train military leaders for its detailed study of military strategy and effective leadership.

Letter to My Daughter

This book of essays and poems by Maya Angelou,a respectable American poet,is written for “the daughter she never had”— the millions of women,both young and old,who she considers to be her “family”.From the viewpoint of a caring,older relative,this book contains lessons selected from her own life experiences,including the birth of her only child,a son,as well as the development and loss of friendship.

A Brief History of Time

If you’re short on time,then why not read about,well,the creation of time?This book,first published in 1998 from brilliant scientist and mathematician Stephen Hawking,explores

mind-bending questions about the creation of the universe,including if and when it will end,and if so,how.Despite its heavy subject matter,Hawking addresses these questions in a way that’s easy to understand,even for those who know little about physics.

21.What can we learn about the four books?

A.A Brief History of Time mainly focuses on the matter of the earth.

Enjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater.These days,musicians are performing in private homes,at haircutting shops,at airports...even on ferry boats.

Musicians like house concerts.At music clubs,they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol.People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.

Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O’ Hair Salon,Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials.Then,they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space.The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon,near the hairdryers and make-up tables.

“This is our first show at a hair salon,” Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week’s performance.Frank said she and band members,Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time “interacting” with the audience.

Concerts in people’s homes,or small businesses such as O’ Hair’s,are becoming more popular,musicians say.“There is a more relaxed atmosphere,” said Domenic Cicala,a musician who opened up his O’ Hair Salon to concerts.“People really get to know the artists.”

At house concerts,people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers.Often,the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.

“People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend,” said Matt Hart,with Aubrey Zoli making up the Local Strangers,a folk-rock group based in Seattle.At many such concerts,the musicians do not need microphones.Yet,every word of their songs can be heard.

24.Why do musicians like house concerts?

A.Because private homes are easier to get to.

B.Because people pay more attention to their music.

C.Because they can do other things while performing.

D.Because they don’t have to bring their microphones.

25.What impressed Sarah Frank most at her last week’s performance?

A.The small performance space.

B.Her first show at a hair salon.

C.Their interaction with the audience.

D.The more relaxed atmosphere.

26.How many music groups are mentioned in the text?

A.One.

B.Two.

C.Three.

D.Four.

27.What may be the best title for the text?

A.Musicians Struggle to Make a Living

B.People Really Get to Know the Artists

C.Musicians Find New Places to Perform

D.Concertgoers Won’t Go to Music Clubs

“Hungary?” I looked at my school headmaster in confusion.“I never mentioned wanting to go to Hungary.” And with that,my adventure started.

My name is Jonathan Diamond and I just finished an amazing school exchange year in Hungary.

Going on an exchange had always been my dream.When my high school offered an all-year program,I jumped at the opportunity.It would pay for almost everything and all I had to do was buy a plane ticket.I knew where I wanted to go:Spain,the country of dancers wearing flowing red dresses.So when I heard that I was going to Hungary,I was pretty shocked.But I decided to make the best of it,since it was,after all,a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.Before I knew it,I was on the airplane,leaving for Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport,Hungary.

I had difficult times when I almost gave up.Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet.Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peers and me.I had to give up eating carrots,my beautiful favorite,for Hungarians think carrots are rubbish in their country.The change in the landscape was amazing,looking nothing like skyscrapers,bullet trains,cars,and people in tiny houses that I had been accustomed to.Gradually,I fell in love with the relaxing lifestyle,the

warm-hearted people,and getting home at 2:30 p.m.at the latest from school.And I was sad to leave on my very last day.

Having the host family who took me as one of their own members was the best thing I’ve ever experienced.From my little sisters,I learned how to embrace life to its fullest.From my brothers I learned that it’s OK for a boy to run around the house.From my host parents I learned to stay positive,to smile and that when you pick the right people and take their hands,suddenly,you become friends.

28.How did Jonathan feel when he was told to go to Hungary?

A.Excited and satisfied.

B.Confused and shocked.

C.Amazed and embarrassed.

D.Delighted and interested.

29.Why did Jonathan still decide to go to Hungary instead of Spain?

A.He didn’t like Spain.

B.He wanted to learn Hungarian.

C.It was a rare chance.

D.Going to Hungary was much cheaper.

30.What can we learn about Jonathan during his stay in Hungary?

A.He fell in love with eating carrots.

B.He couldn’t wait to leave.

C.He was surprised by the landscape.

D.He quickly got used to the life there.

31.According to Jonathan,the host family .

A.changed him completely

B.taught him how to dance well

C.treated him as equally as a student

D.showed him the good things of life

D

Some pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic,according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare.The study,published in the journal Biology Letters,is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal,influencing judgment.

Asher,a researcher at the University of Newcastle’s Institute of Neuroscience,and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment.One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft,deep straw.After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks,the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.

“To do this,we trained each pig.In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets—pigs love them—and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans,which pigs find bitter-tasting,” a researcher said.

Over a number of training trials,pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets.On the contrary,they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.

The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations,to see how the pigs would react.Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside,showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets.Others,however,behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans,displaying pessimism.

The findings suggest that a one-size-fits-all answer to animal welfare issues does not exist.Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people,there is still cause for concern.Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.

32.What was the study trying to figure out?

A.How to make pigs happier.

B.The similarities between humans and pigs.

C.How living environment affected pigs’ mood.

D.How pigs’ mood and personality affected their judgment.

33.What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Simple.

B.More comfortable.

C.Unpractical.

D.Less free.

34.Which bowl can test whether a pig is optimistic or pessimistic?

A.The bowl with chocolate sweets.

B.The bowl containing coffee beans.

C.The bowl full of both sweets and beans.

D.The bowl unfamiliar to two types of pigs.

35.What do the findings of the new research imply?

A.People should treat pigs equally.

B.People’s health relies on meat quality.

C.People should meet pigs’ various needs.

D.People’s attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.

Traveling alone gives you the freedom to create your own schedule and do as you please.

36For example,a travel partner can provide practical support and share in the rewards of

first-hand experience with unfamiliar locations and cultures.Here are several tips to find a travel partner who will improve your journey.

37Traveling should be fun.When you are on a trip,you will want to do lots of activities that you enjoy.Preferably,your companion will want to do the same things as you.

Discuss financial plans.Before you travel,you should plan a budget.38You don’t want to be planning an expensive getaway at the same time your friend is looking for budget travel.

Have an honest conversation.If you are thinking about traveling with a companion,take some time to have an open discussion.Schedule a time to sit down and talk.Try saying,“I know we’ve talked about the idea of traveling through Europe together.Let’s have a coffee this week and actually talk that through.”39You should also talk about your travel style.

Find someone who is flexible.Choose a travel partner who can adjust.40Maybe it will rain on the day you planned to visit the Grand Canyon.Or you might not be able to get reservations at that French restaurant you’ve been dying to try.

A.Look for someone with common interests.

B.You should discuss your goals for the trip.

C.Travel with a friend who is pretty easygoing.

D.But traveling with a partner has its benefits,too.

E.Make sure that you are on the same page concerning money.

F.Try to meet your new travel partner in person before your trip.

G.No matter how carefully you plan your trip,it is likely that something will go wrong.

Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years? Jane Addams(1860 —1935) Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank.Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区)by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Rachel Carson(1907—1964) If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement migh t not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans. Sandra Day O’Connor(1930—present) When Sandra Day O’Connor finished thir d in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员)and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court. Rosa Parks(1913 —2005) On December 1,1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “ The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks. 21.What is Jane Addams noted for in history?

At the same time, a new industry was just being born: the cinema. America’s movie industry began life in New York; but by 1910, movie-makers were moving to Los Angeles. In New York, everything was too expensive: workers, land, taxes. Moreover, it was difficult to make movies in winter, because it was too cold. The Los Angeles region, on the other hand, was full of advantages. In California, they could make films all through the year; and everything was cheaper. In particular, there was lots of land for sale, especially in the Los Angeles suburb called Hollywood. Mo vies quickly became very popular, and this popularity exploded after “talkies” first appeared in 1925. Nevertheless, movies were expensive to produce, and film companies needed money-lots of it. For this reason, Hollywood rapidly became controlled by a small number of big companies such

2015年高考全国卷2英语试题及答案（word精校版） 含详细解析 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） A My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set. When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble. 21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set? A.He got an older model than he had expected. B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken. C.He could have bought it at a lower price. D.He failed to find any movie shows on it. 22. Which of the following an best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1? A.ended all their programs
