福建省三明市2018-2019学年高一上学期第二次月考英语试卷
福建省三明市-学年高一上学期第二次月考英语试卷福建省三明市2018-2019学年高一上学期第二次月考英语试卷一、阅读理解I admire my father for as long as I can remember. I loved the way he treated people with such respect and kindness.On Sundays we usually took the bus into Manhattan, where we would do interesting things, like riding the Circle Line. He would point out every landmark and tell us the history behind it. He loved to take us on the subway to Nathan’s in Coney Island. Once there, he would give my sister and me each a five-dollar bill and then he would enjoy himself for the afternoon with his newspapers.In 1968, we went to see the movie “Oliver”, a Charles Dickens’ classic story of a young orphan(孤儿) boy called Oliver. On the way home from the theater that afternoon he told us how he was raised in an orphanage(孤儿院) in New York after both of his parents died. He told us the nuns(修女) were wonderful to him and loved him like a mother would. As he grew older, he was placed in a few foster(寄养) families before he joined the Army.When we were teenagers, he still took us out each weekend and he would ask us to invite specific friends to join us and he would pay for them. We often went to Yankee Stadium to watch the baseball game and he bought us tickets in the least expensive seats. To keep the cost down, he waited for us in the car where he read his newspapers and then took a nap(小睡).He was always happy and appreciated everything he had. He loved his two little girls and later his two granddaughters. He gave so much, yet he had so little. He thought he was the richest man in the world.1.What would the writer’s father do when in Nathan’s?A. He would do interesting things, like riding the Circle Line.B. He would point out every landmark and have a good rest.C. He would wait for us and read newspapers.D. He would give my sister and me the chance to learn.2.What did the writer’s father and Oliver have in common?A. They both liked Charles Dickens’ stories.B. They both had ever been an orphan.C. They were both adopted(收养) by families.D. They both had been a brave soldier.3.How did the writer’s father find the life in the orphanage?A. Terrible.B. Satisfying.C. Tiring.D. Disappointing.4.Why did the writer’s father choose to take a nap?A. Because he wanted to save some money.B. Because he wanted to buy us expensive seats.C. Because he wanted to have a very good seat.D. Because he wanted to reward his foster parents.People often say that there is nothing in the world that can be as great as a mother’s love. Some mother expressions mean just that. The phrase “mother lode” comes from mining. It means the place where the largest amount of gold can be found. But now, the term “mother lode” means a rich supply of anything. For example, you might say, “She just graduated from college and struck the mother lode with her new job!”When we call something “the mother of all”, this means it is the biggest or best of something. Here is an example: “We are going to throw the mother of all parties this weekend. So you have to come!”Naturally, the word “mother” can be used to mean to givebirth, even to something you cannot touch, such as an idea or wisdom. The saying “necessity is the mother of invention” means that when people really need to do something, they will find a way to do it. And “experience is the mother of wisdom” means that people learn from what happens to them.You might think all expressions about mothers are sweet and loving. Not so. A boy who is “tied to his mother’s apron strings(围裙带)” is controlled by his mother. We can also call him a “mama’s boy”. Both of these terms are even more insulting(侮辱人的) if you are talking about a man, not a young boy. It can be a huge mistake for a woman to marry a “mama’s boy” who is still “tied to his mother’s apron strings”.A show about mothers would not be complete without talking about the very popular but mysterious “Mother Goose”. The short poems and songs that “Mother Goose” wrote are a part of growing up in the United States. Real or not, you could say “Mother Goose” is the mother of all nursery rhyme(童谣) writers.1.The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. all mother expressions are about nice thingsB. mother is the greatest person in the worldC. there are some expressions about mother in EnglishD. mother’s love is the greatest thing in the world2.If you strike the mother lode, you will ________.A. be richB. get injuredC. have to work hardD. get an easy job3.When saying “I heard the mother of all songs”, the person means ________.A. he heard your mother sing songsB. mothers were good at singingC. he loved songs about mothersD. the song he heard was the bestWhy we cry with happiness show: Responding with a negative reaction helps us deal with extreme joy. If you cry with happiness at weddings, you are responding to a happy experience with a negative reaction. The researchers believe the unusual reaction may help renew emotional balance in us and keep extreme emotions under control. The findings make it clear how people express and control their emotions, which could help improve their understanding of people’s mental(精神的) health.Dr Oriana Aragon set out to explore the phrase “tears of joy”, which she said never made sense to her. But after studying a series of incongruous(不和谐的`) expressions, she now understands better why people cry when they are happy. “People may be renewing emotional balance with these expressions,” she explained. “They seem to take place when people are struck by strong positive emotions. People, who do this, seem to recover better from those strong emotions.”The report show various examples of responding to a positive experience with a negative emotion, such as, a crying wife seeing the husband returning from war again, and teenage girls screaming at a Justin Bieber concert. Examples also include a baseball player who hits a home run, only to be slapped(拍) on the back by teammates, as well as when people cannot help kissing babies’ faces who they consider lovely.Dr Aragon and her team discovered that people, who expressed negative reactions to positive news, were able to moderate(缓和) strong emotions more quickly. There is also someevidence that strong negative feelings may provoke positive expressions. For example, nervous laughter often happens when p eople are faced with a hard situation. We’ve seen people smiling during times of extreme sadness.“The findings affect our knowledge of how people express and control their emotions, which is importantly related to mental and physical health, the quality of relationships with others, and even how well people work together,” Dr Aragon said.1.What will an extremely happy person do, according to the passage?A. He will jump with joy.B. He will keep silent.C. He will calm down as usual.D. He will burst into tears.2.By responding to happiness with negative reactions, people can ________.A. hide the true feelings under a mask of politenessB. renew emotional balance and control strong emotionsC. show off their rich emotions now and thenD. express themselves carefully in a special way3.What does the underlined word “provoke” in Paragraph4 probably mean?A. Lead to.B. Hold back.C. Take in.D. Get over.4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It’s common to express negative reactions to positive feelings.B. When people cry, it means they are very happy.C. Expressing and controlling emotions is important for humans.D. Differences between positive and negative emotions.From now, if all goes well, a high-tech spacecraft will land in the South Pole of the moon. There, it will drill 66 feet down into the surface(表面) and collect samples of the mantle(地幔样本) to bring back to the earth.But before it leaves, it will have a two-part time capsule(时光胶囊): a public part, full of the Earth’s history, and a priv ate part, full of digital(数码的) memory boxes created by individuals(个人). These memory boxes can hold digital files — records of family trees, videos or actual DNA in the form of human hair. Not everyone can have a digital memory box, though. The boxes are only delivered for the people who donate the money to the project.The project, called Lunar Mission One, has already raised more than half of its ￡600,000 goal since its launch(启动) just a few days ago. The founders thought that it would succeed because of the attraction of both exploring the moon surface and leaving a time capsule behind. The mission was a technical action, but it was also an emotional one, bringing the excitement of knowing that something humans built on the Earth reached somewhere else in space.Still, it does seem risky(冒险的) for a person to donate￡60 to keep a digital memory box for a project that won’t come true until 20xx. What if the project never takes off? What if the technology isn’t good enough? What if those digital memory boxes b reak on the moon’s surface? And how will anybody ever even know if that happens? Ian Crawford, a professor at Birkbeck College in London and scientific advisor to the mission, says it is not necessary to worry about these. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon isn’t really about physically leaving something on the moon —it’s more an opportunity toencourage people’s interest in space.1.Who can have a digital memory box on the moon?A. A person who donated￡60 to the project.B. A person who has records of family trees.C. A person who is in charge of the project.D. A person who is interested in exploring the moon.2.What can be learned about Lunar Mission One from Paragraph 3?A. The spacecraft was successfully launched just a few days ago.B. It will explore the moon surface and leave a time capsule on the moon.C. It was created because of the excitement of knowing something in space.D. It was a technical action because it was designed with rich emotion.3.Why does it seem risky to donate￡60 to keep a digital memory box?A. Because the spacecraft won’t be sent on time.B. Because the technology isn’t good enough.C. Because the project won’t come true until 20xx.D. Because there are various possibilities in such a long time.4.What can be concluded from the last sentence of the passage?A. Everything about the project will be OK.B. The time capsule on the moon is not meaningful.C. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon is scientific.D. The message of the project is to call people’s mor e attention to space.二、七选五Are you afraid of failure? However, only by overcoming fear of failure can we achieve success in life. Here are some tips on how to remove fear and focus on success:Understand that at times you make mistakes. 1. Before any of us learned how to walk, we crawled(爬行). We got up, fell down and got up again. We continued the process until we could walk quite well.2. Instead, view it as a stepping stone. Make certain that you learn from failure and then use what you have learned in future situations. Refuse to consider failure a character weakness. Doing so will only prevent you from achieving future success.Remember that failure has produced many successes. 3. Albert Einstein’s teacher told him to quit school and said, “Einstein, you will never achieve anything!” Beethoven’s music teacher said he was hopeless to become a composer(作曲家). Henry Ford’s first two car companies failed.Appreciate the benefits of failure. Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “All life is an experiment. The more experi ments you try, the better you make.” It’s hardly possible for someone to achieve success for the first time he tries. 4.Believe in yourself. Rather than give up when things don’t work out, take it as a chance to build perseverance(坚持不懈). Remind yourself how many failures became successful because they wouldn’t give up. 5.A. Don’t take failure personally.B. Work hard and try to avoid(避免) failure.C. Realize that you are human and humans make mistakes.D. Believe that you’ve got what it takes to work through the difficult times.E. Making the same mistake again can lead to the failure inyour future work.F. Consider how many people in history had failed before they became successful.G. In other words, your chances of getting things right on the first try are little.三、完形填空Though the sun was shining, it was still cold here in the mountains. I was ______ home along the clear roads.

2010-2023历年福建省三明一中高三第二次月考英语卷
2010-2023历年福建省三明一中高三第二次月考英语卷第1卷一.参考题库(共12题)1. Scientists in the United States say plant life has increased on Earth in the past twenty years and that in every area of plant growth the increase is the result of weather conditions.Eight scientists from across the Uni ted States did the study. The space agency NASA and the Department of Energy paid for it. The findings were published in the magazine Science.The researchers spent one and a half years examining weather satellite information. The information was recorded from 1982 to 1999. That period was one of the warmest on record. Researchers found that rainfall generally increased during that time.The satellites measured the number of leaves on plants and the amount of sunlight taken in. The scientists used that information to estimate what is called net primary production. This is total amount of carbon stored in land plants.The scientists report a 6% increase in stored carbon since 1982. They say gains were high in equatorial areas, especially around the Amazon River in South America. The area alone had a 1% increase in the net primary production.Ramakrishna Nemani of the University of Montana in Missoula headed the study. He says reduced cloud cover led to growth in Amazon area. He also says the lack of clouds allowed more sunlight to get through. More sunlight meant increases in photosynthesis(光合作用). That is the process by which plants use energy from sunlight to produce the chemicals they need to grow.Northern Canada, the north-central United States and northern Europe were second in increased plant growth. Ramakrishna Nemani says a rise in temperature helped plants there.All together, the report says 25% of areas of plant life on Earth experienced increases. But the scientists also note increase in the number of people on Earth and carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Ranga Myneni of Boston University in Massachusetts,another study scientist says humans use about half the net primary production on Earth. And he notes that the world population grew by 36% during the period of time studied. 【小题1】Which of the following is in charge of the study?A．The spa ce agency NASA of the US.B．The Department of Energy of the US.C．Ramakrishna Nemani in Missoula.D．Ranga Myneni in Massachusetts.【小题2】What’s the main cause of the plant growth put forward by the study? A．Growth in population.B．Regional features.C．Seasonal variation.D．Weather conditions【小题3】 Why do scientists believe that reduced cloud cover has led to the plant growth in the Amazon area?A．Because plants could take in more sunlight.B．Because plants could get more rainfall.C．Because plants could enjoy cooler air.D．Because plants suffer less from natural disasters.【小题4】 Which of the following descriptions about the years from 1982 to 1999 is TRUE?A．It was the warmest on record.B．Rainfall decreased little by little.C．World population grew by 25%.D．Stored carbon increased by 6%.2.On a hot summer day, a soft drink can really take away your thirst. At home, at school, in the park or at the movies—you can find one almost anywhere.Carbonated(碳酸的)You can see bubbles in these! Of all soft drinks sold, about 75 percent are carbonated. But be careful, carbonated soft drinks have lots of sugar and caffeine. Caffeine is not very good for you in the summer, because it takes water out of your body. And the sugar can make you overweight if you drink too much.Fruit juiceThere are different kinds of juice. One kind is made only from fresh fruit. This kind of fruit juice may not ta ste sweet enough for some people, but it is nutritious. Another kind of fruit juice tastes good but has lots of sugar in it. Many young people buy this kind because the advertisements are good. It is bad for your teeth and bones to drink lots of this.Energy drinksThese kinds of drinks have caffeine and things that make people get excited in them. They are sometimes called “party drinks”. Doctors say that if you drink too much of this kind, you may have a heart attack.Bottled waterWe have lots of different kinds of bottled water, such as mineral water, purified water and distilled(蒸馏的) water. They are clean and easy to drink. But it is best not to drink very cold water. It may make your stomach feel bad.Sports drinksMost of these have funny names like “Scream” and “G-Vital”. They have lots of vitamins and minerals in them. After you play sports, you may want to drink one of these.But if you just spend your summer holiday sitting around watching TV, you won’t need them at all!【小题1】Which of the following is NOT suitable for you to take if you go climbing? A．Carbonated soft drinks.B．Fruit juice.C．Bottled water.D．Sports drink.【小题2】 If you have to stay up late, what kind of water may help you?A．Fruit juice.B．Energy drinks.C．Bottled water.D．Sports drink.【小题3】What’s the probable reason for you to drink sports drinks after sport? A．They have funny names that sound very exciting.B．They can recover the minerals lost in your sweat.C．They can effectively get rid of your thirst.D．They can take away your vi tamins and minerals.【小题4】What’s the main purpose of the author writing this article?A．To advise us to keep away from unhealthy soft drinks.B．To teach us some useful ways of keeping healthy.C．To make advertisements for the soft drink companies.D．To tell us how to choose a suitable one from different drinks.3.It was black in the evening.

Just as Dana Richardson, who is a professional mermaid in Hawaii!“As a child, I always felt very connected to the ocean and played mermaids in the water,” says Dana. “My love of the ocean too me to different types of wor such as a lifeguard, swim instructor, boat crew member, underwater photographer, boat captain, and surfer. I just decided to tae it to the net level and grow a tail!”Dana doesn’t mean literally(照字面地). In 2008 she began maing mermaid tails from materials including shiny fabric(织物) that she wears while free-diving in the waters around ona, Hawaii. Free-diving means diving without protective equipment. It requires you to hold your breath while swimming deep underwater. As she dives in, Dana not only loos lie a mermaid; she eperiences what it is lie to swim lie one too.The waters around Dana’s home in ona are fi lled with wildlife, including dolphins and whales. ona is by a sheltered sea where the waters are calm for swimming. For ten years Dana has been swimming with the creatures of ona. Some of them have even learned to recognie her.Dona nows how to swim with sea life because she is a trained marine(海洋的) naturalist. She understands the behavior of sea life and nows how to safely interact with it. Every morning when she swims with sea life she gets to eperience her other “home”. “The ocean beneath the depths re ally is another world. Watching how the world wors so gracefully in that circle of life underwater is a beautiful thing.”For Dana Richardson being a mermaid just maes sense. “I’ve always felt more comfortable underwater than on land,” she says.Would you lie to follow your dream, even if it seems impossible? Dana reminds everyone, “One person can truly mae a difference. By following your heart and offering the world your unique gifts, you will inspire others to do so. The world needs you!”24.

Dana encourages people to _________.A. help those in needB. love marine animalsC. try to realie their dreamsD. protect the marine environmentCStudents who go to class every day may get more than just an education. To combat truancy (逃课), many school districts are offering iPods, laptops and even cars in echange for perfect attendance.California’s Santa Ana Unified School District partners with a local auto dealership and holds a car raffle (抽奖) at the end of every academic term. Students who made it to every class for the 180-day school year are allowed to participate. “It’s caught on. Our attendance rates have improved,” Santa Ana spoeswoman Angela Burrell said last wee. “Other raffle pri es in Santo Ana include iPods, movie ticets and other items,” Ms. Burrell said. Similar programs have been carried out in districts in Wyoming, Ariona, Michigan and elsewhere.Education specialists see value in such efforts. “Sipping school is often the si gn of dropping out, andschool are wise to try and reach students before they give up on the system entirely,” said James Appleton, eecutive director of the National Dropout Prevention Center.“Research indicates that those who sip school often come from l ow-income families, have parents who lac high school degrees, are victims of abuse or neglect; have mental health problems or have parents with histories of criminality,” Mr. Appleton said. “However, some are highly intelligent and are just bored with scho ol.”While they agree truancy is a serious problem that must be addressed, some officials are septical of giving students iPods or cars as motivators to come to class. Camden, N.J., School Board member Sean Brown told The Philadelphia Inquirer that he opposed the reward systems. Former board member Jose Delgado told the paper that the move was unacceptable and sent the wrong message to students.But others believe that students can’t be reached unless districts get them in the building. “Many times it is beneficial to get ids to school in order to be able to wor on these underlying (根本的) problems,” Mr. Appleton said. “Research suggested that motivators can be effective.”28. What is the purpose of Santa Ana’s raffle pries?A. To reward ids for their achievements.B. To provide ids with better education.C. To encourage ids to attend school.D. To raise money for ids in need.29. What does Mr. Appleton eplain in Paragraph 4?A. The influence of family.B. The reasons for truancy.C. The importance of safety.D. The problems with learning.30. What is Mr. Appleton’s attitude to the reward systems?A. Supportive.B. Doubtful.C. Uncaring.D. Tolerant.31. Why did the author write the tet?A. To report some new learning programs.B. To describe a California’s school district.C. To discuss a method of tacling sipping class.D. To promote research on attendance rates.DWhat does a cow drin? Your quic answer, lie most people, wa s probably “mil” because of the very strong association between cows and mil, even though you are well aware that cows do no drin mil. Similar mistaes also happen at school.Why do some mistaes happen more often than others? In order to answer this question, let us start with an eample. In a very famous eperiment, children are ased whether the two rows of dots presented below contain the same number of dots.If you let yourself answer quicly, don’t you want to say that there are more dots in the upper row? Why? Because in your everyday life, at the library, for instance, when a line of boos is longer than another one, it usually contains more boos. Your brain is very good at picing up on these inds of patterns in your environment and it will tend to create a “rule”, in this case the “length equals number” rule. We call these types of rules heuristics. Heuristics are very useful because they are fast, require little effort, and almost always give us the right answer. But not always! So here, to give the correct answer, you need to actually count the dots in each row. We call this type of strategy an algorithm. When you face a problem, there is always a race in your brain between heuristics and algorithms. Heuristics almost always win, because they are faster. But they are so fast that, when there is a trap, the heuristic maes you fall into it and mae mistaes!What happens in your brain when you manage to avoid the trap? Scientists found that people use the area located in the front of the brain called the prefrontal corte (前额皮质) to avoid the trap. The prefrontal corte coordinates (协调) the wor of all the other brain areas, and its role is usually to determine which areas should not be woring. So basically, the prefrontal corte allows us to inhibit (bloc) the heuristics.Can you improve your inhibitory sills? Actually our brains continuously adapt and improve as we learn. This characteristic is called neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). So now, when you repeat the same mistaesseveral times, don’t give up! What you must do is as your teacher to help you find and understand the heuristic you spontaneously (本能地) use, then practice inhibiting it many times!32. Why does the author as what the cow drins?A. To entertain the reader.B. To mae the reader feel confident.C. To test the reader’s level of intelligence.D. To show that some mistaes happen very often.33. The “length equals number” rule _________.A. is always wrongB. cannot save timeC. is not always rightD. requires lots of effort34. The prefrontal corte usually _________.A. allows people to wor fasterB. stops some areas of the brain functioningC. helps the brain create general rulesD. encourages people to follow the heuristics.35. To prevent maing the same mistaes, students should first _________.A. learn how to use the heuristic betterB. find out how the heuristic affects themC. do the same items over and over againD. as their teacher about the correct answers第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
