YOU may like chewing gum (口香糖) after meals to stop your breath smelling bad; or your mother might use a special neutralizer (調(diào)理劑) to protect her permed hair (燙發(fā)). But have you thought about the chemical principles behind such everyday actions?

On March 2, the Senior 3 students from the IB (International Baccalaureate, 國際文憑) classes at Beijing Huijia Private School presented their discoveries, all in fluent English. This kind of seminar is held every year to show the achievements of the IB chemistry experiment lessons offered by the school. IB is a qualification based on a common curriculum (課程) for students aged 16-18 in any country and is recognized by universities everywhere.

"Once I saw an advertisement for xylitol (木糖醇) gum," recalled Zhang Xinju. "Suddenly an idea came to my mind: are there any chemical reactions when the xylitol is working on our teeth?"

Zhang and his partner Bu Xuan visited several hospitals to try and find out. "Doctors know that xylitol can protect teeth, but few could explain how the chemical reactions happen," said the 17-year-old boy.

Presenting the results of their research in English to an audience of Chinese and foreign judges was never a problem for the students.

"Textbooks for IB students are in English, and our teachers speak in English," explained Wei Duan and Han Yu, whose research topic was "The Acid-Base Reaction (酸堿反應(yīng)) in the process of Hair-Perming".

"In Senior 1 we often referred to Chinese textbooks, but we found we could understand and express it all in English by the second year."

Lu Jiang, the school's IB chemistry teacher and China's only IB vice-examiner, is proud that her students can apply scientific theories they learn in class to daily life.

"You might have learned these facts from you kindergarten teachers, but few think about the theories behind them," Lu said. "This kind of practice is intended to develop the scientific thinking they will need in their future studies."

1.IB is recognized by____________.

A.Beijing Huijia Private School

B.univercities in China

D.universities in any country

2.which statement is true?____________

A.Doctors don’t know that xylitol can protect teeth

B.Doctors can explain how the chemical reactions happen

C.Few could explain how the chemical reactions happen.

D.The foreign doctors can explain how the chemical reactions happen

3.Textbooks for IB students are in___________

A.Chinese B.English

C.English and Chinese D.Japanese

4.From the passage,we know_______

A.the students are creative

B.the students are poor in Chinese

C.the students don’t like chewing gum

D.The students are hard-working

5.From the passage,we can infer _________________________

B.we must learn English well

C.we should intend to develop the scientific thinking in our studies

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學(xué)年四川廣元市高二下第二次段考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Michelle was a student at University of California, Los Angeles. She is here to tell us how she feels about the city.

What were the best things about Los Angeles?

One of my favorite things about Los Angeles is the weather. I hate the cold and it never really gets that cold there. Plus, most of the time it’s usually sunny, which is good because I love going to the beach during the summer. There’s so much to do at the beach, but my favorite thing in L.A. was having a picnic on the sand with my friends.

What were the worst things about being there?

I disliked having to drive everywhere to get around because the city is so spread out. Los Angeles has a lot of traffic and sometimes it takes a long time to get somewhere close by just because the streets are so crowded. Also, a lot of people complain about the pollution.

Did you have any problems there?

Just the normal problems of living in any city, like watching out for pickpockets. Some people think Los Angeles has a lot of crime, but I think it’s as safe as any other city. Also, many people think driving is difficult because there is a lot of traffic and road rage (路怒癥), but it just takes a little practice and a lot of patience.

What are the people like in Los Angeles?

There are all types of people in Los Angeles since the city is pretty diverse. For the most part, though, most of the people are friendly, calm and relaxed. Some people say that everyone in Los Angeles is beautiful, but I think that’s just a stereotype.

Would you go back to Los Angeles?

Certainly. Los Angeles is one of my favorite cities in the world. I love the fact that it has all the nightlife and shopping of a big city, but also has access to beaches, parks, mountains and other places you can’t usually find in large cities. Between the weather and the beaches and all the fun things to do, it’s a great place to be.

1.We can learn from the text that Michelle _____.

A. hates the heavy traffic in Los Angeles

B. dislikes the cold weather in Los Angeles

C. thinks Los Angeles is small and crowded

D. enjoys driving everywhere in Los Angeles

2.What’s Michelle’s impression of the people in Los Angeles?

A. They get angry easily.

B. All sorts of people live there.

C. They are patient and amusing.

D. Everyone is kind and beautiful.

3.How does Michelle find Los Angeles?

A. Safe but noisy.

B. Relaxing but busy.

C. Polluted and dangerous.

D. Diverse and interesting.

4.We learn from the text that _____.

A. Michelle was born in Los Angeles

B. Michelle loved the life in Los Angeles

C. Los Angeles has many traffic accidents

閱讀理解。

There’s no doubt that our character has a profound effect on our future．What we must remember，however，is not merely how powerful character is in influencing our fate (命運)，but how powerful we are in shaping our own character and，therefore，our own fate．Character may determine our fate，but character is not determined by fate．

It’s a common mistake to think of character as something that is fully formed and fixed very early in life．It calls to mind old proverbs like “A leopard can’t change its spots” and “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks．”

This perspective that our character is “etched in stone” is supported by a great deal of modern psychology emphasizing self-acceptance．As Popeye says，“I am what I am．” The hidden message is:Don’t expect me to be more，better，or different．

Ultimately，these views of humanity totally undervalue the lifelong potential for growth that comes with the power of reflection and choice．

How depressing it would be to believe that we can’t choose to be better，more honest，more respectful，more responsible，and more caring．None of us should give up the personal seeking to improve our character．Not because we’re bad，we don’t have to be sick to get better ，but because we’re not as good as we could be．

There are so many things in life we can’t control，whether we’re beautiful or smart，whether we had good parents or bad，whether we grew up with affirmation or negation．It’s inspiring to remember that nothing but moral will power is needed to make us better．

No，it isn’t easy．But if we make a great effort to become more aware of the habits of heart and mind that drive our behavior，we can begin to place new emphasis on our higher values so that we become what we want our children to think we are．

1.What is the best title of the passage?

A．We shape our own character．

B．Character determines our fate．

C．Character is fully formed and fixed．

D．We must meet what our children need．

2.The author agrees that _____________．

A．a(chǎn) leopard can't change its spots

B．in life we must attach importance to self-acceptance

C．we shouldn’t expect us to be more different

D．character is not fully formed and fixed very early

3.In the author’s opinion，which of the following is TRUE?

A．We can’t choose to be better．

B．We should seek to improve our character for we’re bad enough．

C．We should value our lifelong potential for growth．

D．We should make choices constantly．

4.What do we need to improve ourselves according to the author?

A．Our smartness．

B．Our will power．

C．Our fate．

D．Our character．

5.What can we infer from the passage?

A．It is not difficult to improve ourselves．

B．We must try our best to be as good as possible．

C．Our children should copy our behavior．

D．We should control as many things as possible in life．
