科目:高中英語 來源:2012-2013學(xué)年浙江省富陽場口中學(xué)高二上學(xué)期11月月考英語試卷(帶解析) 題型:閱讀理解
Have you ever wished you could solve complex math problems without thinking? What about learning to play the piano in just three days? Or mastering several foreign languages within a month?
Eddie Morra, the main character in the movie Limitless can do all these things. But he isn’t Superman or Harry Potter. Eddie has taken pills called NZT.
Thriller Limitless came out in China on October 13. In the movie, Eddie is faced with “writer’s block”. He hasn’t written a single word of a novel, and his deadline has passed. And there’s more bad news: his girlfriend breaks up with him. By chance, Eddie runs into a relative who is a drug dealer. He gives Eddie some pills called NZT that allow people to make use of 100 percent of their brains. With the magic pills, Eddie’s life changes completely. He can recall everything he has ever read, seen or heard. He gains a sixth sense that allows him to predict future events. He even becomes a kungfu master by simply memorizing actions in Bruce Lee’s movie.
Before long he has finished his novel, won back his girlfriend and stepped into the financial world. He becomes rich incredibly quickly and is soon employed by a powerful Wall Street company. However, bad side effects are just around the corner. The effects of the pill last for only one or two days, and Eddie has to find more supplies of the pills. Meanwhile, the pills start to have other effects on him. Eddies’ mind loses the ability to control the actions of his body. What does destiny hold for him? Will he be able to go back to his normal life?
“Eddie’s fate turns out to be a barbed (諷刺的) joke… a sharp-eyed comic fable for an age of greed (貪婪)and speed.” writes A. O. Scott, a movie critic with the New York Times.
The drug isn’t real-----yet, some researchers say such memory-enhancing drugs might not be far off. Would you take such a pill despite its side effects? Is the ability to remember everything a blessing or a curse?
【小題1】Which of the following happened to Eddie after he took the pill?
A.He can easily call everyone in the world. |
B.He can expect what will happen next with his sixth sense. |
C.He can control a powerful Wall Street company and becomes rich. |
D.He can make a special pill to improve his own memory. |
A.Memory-enhancing is sure to do good to us. |
B.More people will take pills to enhance their memory. |
C.People are soon likely to remember everything. |
D.Such a pill to enhance memories may soon be invented. |
A.To give us the information of a new movie. |
B.To inform us of a new research on a new drug. |
C.To suggest a good way to improve memory. |
D.To tell us something about a new drug to enhance our memory. |

In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web(蜘蛛織網(wǎng)). The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English… Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?
Second, is the goal you’re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about his question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.
The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “l(fā)ive with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”
【小題1】This passage deals with two sides of failure. In paragraph 1, the author talks mainly about________.
A.the value of failure | B.how people would fail |
C.famous failures | D.the cause of failure |
A.succeeded | B.failed | C.gave | D.got |
A.productive | B.straight forward | C.sorrowful | D.deep |
A.to think about the cause of your failure |
B.to check out whether your goals are right for you |
C.to consider failure as a part or life |
D.to bear in mind that you will never fail in your life |
A.Bruce and Edison were successful examples. |
B.Failure may be regarded as a way toward success. |
C.Edison learned a lot from the lesson the spider taught Robert Bruce. |
D.One may often raise a question whether his goals are worth attempting. |
