An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Dick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I dont have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me. Your friend, Matthew41.

Some do very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. And some do one simple job. When an automatic washing machine is switched on, water pours in. The machine waits until the water is warm enough for washing clothes. It does this by “feedback” (反馈). Information about what is happening is feed back into the robot to tell what to do next. Our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback. They tell us what is going on around us. So robots are like human beings in two ways.They work and they have feedback.In some ways robots are better than human beings. They work quickly and do not make mistakes. They do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. And they never get tired. So robots are very useful in factories. They can be taught to do many different jobs. First their electronic brain must be shown how the job is done. A person moves the robots “arms” and “hands” through each part of the job.The most intelligent robots can move and see. Their eyes are cameras. Their fingers can feel shapes and sizes of the objects. These robots have computer brains linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions. The expensive “Times New Roman” - The most intelligent robots are used in scientific research. They do such job as handling radioactive materials.46. In this passage the author tells us that_. A. robots are very popularB. there are various kinds of robotsC. we see robots only at certain timesD. robots can be easily controlled47. What does the author seem to inform you about robots? A. They should be greatly improved. B. They will probably take over in the future.C. They are very helpful and useful to humans. D. They are machines that break down a lot.48.

In most ways robots are better than human beings. B. Robots have eyes, so they can see.C. Scientists sometimes do scientific research by using the intelligent robots. D. Robots can work but they have no feedback. CSome plants get so hungry they eat flies, spiders, and even small frogs. Whats more amazing is that these plants occur naturally(in special environment) in every state. In fact, theyre found on every continent except Antarctica.Youve probably seen a Venus flytrap. Its often sold in museum gift stores, department stores, and even supermarkets. A small plant, it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks（茎）are specially modified leaves that act like traps. Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger(触发) hairs. When an insect lands on them, the trap suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch.The Venus flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editor of the International Carnivorous Plant Societys Newsletter. Note: Despite any science fiction stories you might have read, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans.Dr. Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: “ attract, kill, digest, and absorb” some forms of insects, including flies, butterflies, and moths. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants -well, most of the time.All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis(光合作用). Plants use the sugar to make food. What makes “meat-eating” plants different is their bug-catching leaves. They need insects for one reason: nitrogen(氮). Nitrogen is a nutrient that they cant obtain any other way. Why almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil “Meat-eating” plants cant. They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity(酸度). So theyve come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to “meat-eating” plants. Never fertilize(施肥)them! But dont worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but theyll grow very slowly.51. According to the passage, carnivorous plants . A. only grow in wild field B. are rare to see C. are as common as flies D. cannot grow on Antarctica52. Venus flytrap preys on insects by . A. its numerous long stalks B. a container where it growsC. its insect-catching leaves D. the lining of tiny trigger hairs53. We can conclude from the third paragraph that_. A. carnivorous plants are dangerousB. carnivorous plants are fictionalC. carnivorous plants occasionally eat books D. carnivorous plants are harmless to humans54. Carnivorous plants eat insects in order to . A. make sugars through photosynthesisB. obtain a nutrient called nitrogenC. make food and nectarD. develop to a more advanced form55. In the eyes of the author, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Carnivorous plants cannot grow in acid soil. B. Carnivorous plants can grow in nutrient-poor soil.C. Carnivorous plants will die if they cannot catch any insectsD. Carnivorous plants can get nitrogen from nutrient-rich soil.第三节：读写任务 （共1小题；满分25分）阅读下列短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语文章。Competition is common in every field of life. For example, the Olympic Games is the most famous competition in the world. In the four hundred meter swimming race, the swimmers plunge into the water at the signal. Each swings his or her arms and legs and tries his or her best to be the first. Also there is the competition for jobs, for promotion, for customers, and so on. We can say, in a certain sense, competition stimulates (激励) peoples interest in work and helps society to go forward.We often find that competition goes hand in hand with cooperation. Take, for example, a volley ball match. The members of the team cooperate with each other. One serves the ball, then another passes the ball to a certain height for a still other to hit it over the net while the other members try to block it on its return. It requires good team work to win the game.While we advocate(提倡) competition, we cannot forget cooperation. Human beings are social beings. No one can exist alone in society. If you want to play the game well, you have to play with others. You cannot play single-handed and win. You have to cooperate with your playmates, who may make the social ladder for you to climb to the top. From cooperation we get help and understanding. With cooperation the world is progressing at peace and in harmony.【写作内容】1 概括以上短文的内容要点，该部分的字数大约30；2 以约120个词，就“竞争与合作”这个主题发表看法，并包括以下内容要点：（1） 一些人强调竞争而忽视合作，认为竞争能帮助他们打败对手；（2） 另一些人认为两者都重要，因为两者均对人们有好处（3） 你的看法。【写作要求】1 可以使用实例或其它论述方法支持你的论点，也可参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用材料中的句子。2 标题自拟。【评分标准】概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯。_ 珠海市斗门第一中学0809学年(下)期三月检测School _ Class _ Name _ No _ Mark _ 高二英语试题答卷第一部分： 听取信息（以下每小题1分） 16. _ 17. _ 18. _ 19. _ 20. _第二部分：语法填空（每小题1.5分）31. _ 32._ 33. _ 34. _ 35. _ 36._ 37. _ 38. _ 39. _ 40. _第四部分：写作（共三节，满分5
