AAmazing Facts About Elf OwlsThe elf owl is mostly found in the southwestern parts of the United States and Mexico. During the spring and summer seasons, it moves to Arizona and New Mexico. It returns to Mexico for the winter. The elf owl doesn’t build its own nest. It lives in tree holes.The elf owl is a yellow bird with dark wings. Its eyes are bright yellow and its feet are large. It is the smallest owl of the species, only about 12.5-14.5 centimeters long. It is also the world’s lightest owl, weighing not more than forty grams. In general, female elf owls weigh more than male ones.The female usually lays three eggs at a time. After the young elf owls are born, their mother will feed them with worms for up to three to four weeks. After 10 weeks, the young ones are fully grown and ready to take flight.The elf owls are not aggressive birds. When danger comes, they will fly away in the other direction, rather than staying and facing the danger or their enemies. Besides flying, the elf owl can also walk and climb like a parrot. The elf owl is most active after dusk, during the night and just before dawn. It can produce many different kinds of sounds. It can live for three to six years in the wild. If they are kept in cages, they can live for ten to fourteen years. The elf owls are now in danger because of the loss of habitat. Cutting down trees will result in lack of places for them to live in.21. According to the first two paragraphs, the elf owl may ______.A. live in Mexico in winter.B. have yellow wings.C. have big and dark eyes.D. build its nest in trees.22. What can we learn from the text?A. The female elf owl lays one egg at a time.B. The elf owl can live no longer than six years.C. The elf owl sleeps at night and searches for food during the daytime.D. The female elf owl provides her young with food for three to four weeks.23. What is a characteristic of the elf owl?A. It prefers to live in cages.B. It has a gentle character.C. It is not- good at climbing.D. It is most active during the day,24. Where can we most probably find the text?A. In a science fiction.B. In a tourist guide.C. On a shopping website.D. In a wildlife magazine.BEvery year, billions of kilograms of fresh produce are wasted in the United States. Meanwhile, millions of poor Americans go hungry, without access to healthy, affordable meals.Evan Lutz is enthusiastic about correcting that social injustice: And he combines that goal with enthusiasm for business. Lutz is CEO and founder of Hungry Harvest, a business which collects and sells “ugly” produce. These are fruits an d vegetables that most food companies would throw away. More than six billion pounds are wasted each year due to surface imperfections.“So I’ll give you an example.” Lutz says, “If you go to a grocery store you will see all the produce lineup shiny, perfect, of the same size and color. But on a farm, everything doesn’t grow the same way. So all that stuff that doesn’t grow the same way often gets thrown out. And what we do is take all that normally gets thrown out because of its odd size or shape, box it up and deliver it to our customers once a week.”For Evan Lutz, giving back to others came from his upbringing.“When I was growing up my parents taught me the values of giving back, and giving is a lot more powerful than recei ving. We sell produce with a purpose and that doesn’t just mean we reduce food from going to waste. We hire people that were formerly in prison or were formerly injured or sick living in homeless shelters. They really wanted to get back on their feet for a second chance in life.”Evan Lutz is really happy to be realizing great mission that he thinks can really revolutionize the food industry in America.25. The social injustice in Paragraph 2 refers to the fact that _______.A. vegetables and fruits that don’t taste good get wasted.B. much produce gets wasted while many Americans starve.C. grocery stores only sell produce of the same size.D. poor Americans can not afford healthy food.26. What business does Hungry Harvest mainly do?A. Deliver food for free.B. Raise money for the poor.C. Collect “ugly” produce and sell it.D. Buy “ugly” produce and process it.27. Why does Evan Lutz hire those people mentioned in Paragraph 5?A. To lower labor costs.B. To increase productivity.C. To offer them a job.D. To enjoy a better reputation.28. What can be a suitable title for the passage?A. Creating More Jobs for the Less Fortunate.B. Putting Healthy Food on Dinner Table.C. Making Profits from Shiny Produce.D. Giving Unused Produce a Purpose.CAs the train started to move, I looked around in the car from my seat. Small bags hung from the luggage shelves，swinging from side to side along with the moving of the train. The lights were weak. The smells of oils, sweat，tobacco, socks and toilets filled the car. The windowcurtains seemed to have been picked up from a garbage can. Black and yellow marks dotted them. The wooden edge of the window by my seat had come off and was oily like a butcher’s counter. Brown and dry apple bites, bread bits and melon seeds mixed with beer out of the can lay on the small table in front of me，so was a used newspaper beside one used chopstick.I looked down. Five or six passengers sat on the floor，and one child even lay under a seat, sticking his feet out. Moving around the car would become a disaster. Even a brilliant ballet dancer on her tiptoe might find it hard to put her feet on. Most of those sitting on the floor were asleep, or half-sleep. From time to time they opened their eyes，taking a look at their luggage, and moved their bodies to keep their territory (领地）inviolate.There were also noises. There was laughter and arguments of four men in their poker game. Two women, standing beside, quarreled. A boy, excited, blew his whistles hard. An old lady seemed to lecture her grandson, who tore a hole in his trousers.Suddenly, the train came to a stop. An apple flew away from a hanging bag, bounced off a woman’s shoulder, and hit the head of a man sitting on the floor. Bottles were broken. Swearing, crying and shouting all came into an explosion.29. Which of the following can best describe the environment on the train?A. Warm, comfortable but noisy.B. Messy，dirty and crowded.C. Quiet, harmonious but smelly.D. Bright, busy and pleasant.30. What did the author see on the coach?A. A ballet dancer standing on the floor.B. A table shaped like a butcher’s counter.C. A newspaper and a chopstick lying on the table.D. The train curtains picked up from a trash can.31. How does the author develop the passage?A. By describing real scenes,B. By following space order.C. By comparing different behaviors.D. By following time order.DWhen people find out that I am a journalist, they often ask me: What do you think about the future of newspapers?I tell them that I think the future of communications is moving online. People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people’s minds I wouldn’t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However, strangely enough, I’m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.Since I began writing blogs, I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base，and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.In her successful blog post titled The job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have, author Jenny Surane states，“Print is an expensive product to love. And general managers, publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers’ heads.” She goes on to state that people don’t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll(滚屏)through their Twitter feed, and get news from many different sources.If print is dying, then a new form of communicating information is being born. The need for information has not died. If anything, it has increased. What has died，rather, is the way in which information is presented.Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources，if it chooses to.Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of communicating information to people，grim as well? Definitely not.32. According to Paragraph 2，the author feels ______.A. confident about the future of his career.B. worried about the future of print.C. tired of being a newspaper journalist.D. embarrassed about online writing.33. What information is conveyed in Jenny’s blog post?A. Twitter is not very popular.B. It is hard to manage online journalism.C. Print still has its own advantages.D. People have more options to get information.34. What does the underlined word “grim” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Promising.B. Depressing.C. Unforgiving.D. Encouraging.35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To explore the future of journalism.B. To analyze the cause of print decline.C. To explain the bright future of a journalist.D. To introduce a successful blog post about print.第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

山西省太原市外国语学校2017届高三第一次月考英语试题含答案

高三年级月考试卷（英语）第一部分阅读理解。

（共两节，满分60分)第一节（共15小题；每小题3分，共45分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中，选出最佳选项.ARead a lot，I mean a lot! You have to increase your ability for reading. Many students are in the habit of reading only when their exams are approaching while some others read only what they are taught or things that must be read because it is in their curriculum。

But listen to me now, I am telling you from my own experience that it is a very bad habit and it is not enough to improve your intelligence.You have to learn and get ready to become versatile in your reading. The fact that you are studying medicine in school does not mean that you should not know one or two things on politics。

Many people have complained to me that they find it hard to read stuffs like novels but I just shake my head in pity for them because it is obvious they have failed to realize the truth in that wise saying by Margaret Fuller that “today a READER，tomorrow a LEADER！”When you read, you get to “see” so many places and it will be as if you have visited those places in real life. This is because reading will improve your imagination and creativity and understanding。

Within one minute, the person assumed dead in this case will walk into this court room," he says and he looks towards the court-room door. The jury, somewhat surprised, looks at the door eagerly. A minute passes. Nothing happens.Finally the lawyer says," Actually, I made up the previous statement. But you all waited with expectation.

Ways to Work Well in Completing ProjectsD. Ways to Improve the Efficiency of EmployeesDResearchers say current exercise guidelines are unrealistic and argue that doctors should sometimes advise small increases in activity instead. They warn the 150-minute weekly target is beyond the reach of some people - particularly older individuals. And striving to reach these goals could mean the benefits of lighter exercise are overlooked. But public health officials say current recommendations have proven benefits in lowering the risk of heart disease.There is increasing evidence that inactivity is linked to heart disease, Type 2 diabetes（糖尿病）and some types of cancer. UK guidelines for adults recommend at least two-and-a-half hours of moderate activity a week, in short periods of 10 minutes or more.But in two separate articles in the BMJ, experts argue the message needs to change, with greater emphasis on making inactive people move more. Prof Philipe de Souto Barreto at the University Hospital of Toulouse, advises people who are sedentary（久坐的）to make small incremental increases in their activity levels - rather than pushing to achieve current goals. He points to previous studies which show even short periods of walking or just 20 minutes of vigorous activity a few times a month can reduce the risk of death, compared to people who do no exercise.In the second article, Prof Phillip Sparling of the Georgia Institute of Technology, says doctors should tailor their advice --- particularly for older patients. He suggests using GP visits for people over 60 to discuss "realistic options" to increase activity --- such as getting people to stand up and move during TV commercial breaks.Prof Kevin Fenton at Public Health England, says: "Everyone needs to be active every day –-- short periods of 10 or more minutes of physical activity have proven health benefits, but getting 150 minutes or more of moderate activity every week is the amount we need to positively impact on a wide range of health conditions." This includes reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes."liuxiaoming32. What is the current exercise goal mentioned in the passage?A. 10-minute exerciseB. 20-minute exerciseC. 60-minute exerciseD. 150-minute exercise33. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. A 10-minute exercise has little effect on the health.B. Heart diseases happen easily to the old in activity.C. Two-and-a-half hours of exercise is not necessary.D. Inactivity easily brings about many serious diseases.34. What is the suggestion of Prof. Philipe de Souto Barreto according to the third paragraph?A. People should spend less time on exercise.B. People should lower their activity levels.C. People should increase exercise properly.D. People should achieve their current goals.35. Which of the following is TRUE about current exercise guidelines?A. They are impractical.B. They are reasonable.C. They have no effect on us.D. They are popular with people.第二节：（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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。

Ways to Work Well in Completing ProjectsD. Ways to Improve the Efficiency of EmployeesDResearchers say current exercise guidelines are unrealistic and argue that doctors should sometimes advise small increases in activity instead. They warn the 150-minute weekly target is beyond the reach of some people - particularly older individuals. And striving to reach these goals could mean the benefits of lighter exercise are overlooked. But public health officials say current recommendations have proven benefits in lowering the risk of heart disease.There is increasing evidence that inactivity is linked to heart disease, Type 2 diabetes（糖尿病）and some types of cancer. UK guidelines for adults recommend at least two-and-a-half hours of moderate activity a week, in short periods of 10 minutes or more.But in two separate articles in the BMJ, experts argue the message needs to change, with greater emphasis on making inactive people move more. Prof Philipe de Souto Barreto at the University Hospital of Toulouse, advises people who are sedentary（久坐的）to make small incremental increases in their activity levels - rather than pushing to achieve current goals. He points to previous studies which show even short periods of walking or just 20 minutes of vigorous activity a few times a month can reduce the risk of death, compared to people who do no exercise.In the second article, Prof Phillip Sparling of the Georgia Institute of Technology, says doctors should tailor their advice --- particularly for older patients. He suggests using GP visits for people over 60 to discuss "realistic options" to increase activity --- such as getting people to stand up and move during TV commercial breaks.Prof Kevin Fenton at Public Health England, says: "Everyone needs to be active every day –-- short periods of 10 or more minutes of physical activity have proven health benefits, but getting 150 minutes or more of moderate activity every week is the amount we need to positively impact on a wide range of health conditions." This includes reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes."liuxiaoming32. What is the current exercise goal mentioned in the passage?A. 10-minute exerciseB. 20-minute exerciseC. 60-minute exerciseD. 150-minute exercise33. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. A 10-minute exercise has little effect on the health.B. Heart diseases happen easily to the old in activity.C. Two-and-a-half hours of exercise is not necessary.D. Inactivity easily brings about many serious diseases.34. What is the suggestion of Prof. Philipe de Souto Barreto according to the third paragraph?A. People should spend less time on exercise.B. People should lower their activity levels.C. People should increase exercise properly.D. People should achieve their current goals.35. Which of the following is TRUE about current exercise guidelines?A. They are impractical.B. They are reasonable.C. They have no effect on us.D.

In real life, clownfish are among the thousands of colorful sea creatures that call the Great Barrier Reef home. Stretching 1, 250 miles along Australia’s north-eastern coast, the Great Barrier Reef is the longest coral reef in the world.A coral reef is a living underwater structure. But these days, the Great Barrier Reef has found itself in trouble. Overfishing, pollution, and high temperatures are harming its health. That’s why the government in Australia is trying to help rescue the reef.Underwater GardenWhile coral may look like a plant, it is actually made up of tiny sea animals. Those sea animals are called coral polyps.As polyps die, they leave hard shells behind. Other polyps grow on top of the shells. Over thousands of years, they form a coral reef in warm water that is not very deep.In many ways, the Great Barrier Reef resembles an underwater garden. Coral can be hard or soft. It forms in different colors and in strange shapes. Some coral looks like hardened brains. Other coral looks like fans and lettuces.The reef bursts with schools of tropical fish, dashing among gaps in the coral. The reef supplies food and shelter to creatures living in and around the coral. Turtles, sharks, sea horses, and crabs are among its many inhabitants.Helping HumansWhile the reef is important to ocean life, it helps humans, too. People rely on the reef for both food and jobs. It also provides medicine used to treat disease. Each year, the Great Barrier Reef contributes about$ 975 million to the economy through tourism and fishing.Stressed OutIs it surprising, then, that the Great Barrier Reef is under too much stress?Fishing nets and ships break off sections and damage the reef. Air and water pollution are also doing harm. At the same time, warmer sea temperatures have caused coral bleaching(漂白)on half of the reef. The high temperatures cause the coral to turn white, often killing it.Reef RescueIn an effort to help save the reef, the government has limited fishing to two thirds of it. That plan increases the number of “green zones”. Those are areas that are off-limits to fishermen and boats. However, tourists and researchers can still visit them. Many fishermen are upset about the plan because they rely on the reef for jobs.The Australian government says that its plan will help keep the reef safe from some threats. “It is very important that we give the reef proper protection for the future, ”said one government official. The reef is Australia’s greatest natural treasure.25.Which of the following is not a creature that lives in the Great Barrier Reef?A.Coral polyps.B.Turtles.C.Sea horses.D.Whales.26.Which section describes the problem in this passage?A.Underwater GardenB.Helping HumansC.Stressed OutD.Reef Rescue27.What picture can the reader get from the underlined sentence“The reef bursts with schools of tropical fish, dashing among gaps in the coral.” in Paragraph 6?A.Many fish quickly moving through the coral.B.Fish moving toward the center, or target, of the coral.C.Structured, orderly groups of young fish without a clear path.D.Fish exploding when they come into contact with gaps in the coral.28.What is this passage mostly about?A.The causes of reef problems and possible solutions.B.Coral bleaching, which causes the reef to turn white.C.The history of tourism to the Great Barrier Reef.D.Overfishing and higher temperatures.CTexting pedestrians aren’t just an annoyance to their fellow walkers, but something dangerous to themselves.“I was checking emails while walking to work this morning, ”said Wolbert van den Hoorn. “But it has a serious influence on the safety of people who type or read text while walking. ”Anecdotes back him up. A tourist from Taiwan walked off a port near Melbourne last month while checking Facebook—bringing an abrupt, and icy end to a penguin-watching visit. Another shopper in the U. S. was too addicted to his mobile phone to notice the fountain ahead,walking straight into it.And as mobile-phone use has grown to about 77% of the world’s population, the study says-so has the number of phone-related accidents. The number of U. S. emergency-room visits linked to phone use on the move doubled to as many as 1, 500 between 2005 and 2010, an Ohio State University study recently showed.Authorities world-wide have taken note. Signs on Hong Kong’s subway system advise passengers in three languages to keep their eyes off their phones. Police and transport authorities have also warned the danger in Singapore, where the Straits Times newspaper ranked it as“No. 2 Bad Habit”,due to the rising number of r oad deaths. Some U. S. states, including New York and Arkansas, are even considering bans on this act.The Australian study used 26 volunteers, a third of whom admitted having hit objects while texting. They were fitted with different equipment in different parts of their body, and asked to walk 8.5 meters three times—once without a phone, once while reading a text and once while writing a text—while eight cameras captured the action.Volunteers using the phone walked slower and with shorter steps(and slowest of all when typing), and more seriously, they locked their arms and elbows in—like“robots”, in the researchers’ words. That forced their heads to move more, throwing them off balance.“In a pedestrian environment, inability to maintain a straight path w ould be likely to increase potential for hits, falls and traffic accidents, ”said Mr. van den Hoorn. “The best thing to do is to step aside and stop, or keep off the phone. ”29.Which of the following about“Texting pedestrians”is WRONG?A.People who type while walking.B.People who phone while walking.C.People who text while walking.D.People who read a text message while walking.30.The writer uses the two examples in Paragraph 3 to show____.A.the advantages of mobile phonesB.the use of mobile phones in waterC.the use of mobile phones in a wrong wayD.the popularity of mobile phones31.What is New York and Arkansas’ attitude to texting pedestrians?A.Considering forbidding their acts.B.Ranking it as“No. 1 Bad Habit”.C.Setting up signs to warn them.D.Equipping them with advanced machines.32.What is the best title for the passage?A.Text message or e-mail only?B.Ways to avoid fallsC.Mobile phones for entertainmentD.Safety or text message?DHave you ever heard the saying“All roads lead to Rome”?At one time, this was pretty much true. During the Roman Empire, lots of roads were built in order to move armies, send messages by courier(信使), and make trade easier.The network of Roman roads was begun in 312 BC. It was demanded that the roads be strongly built so that they would not fall down. Roman soldiers, supervised(监督)by engineers, laid down the roads in a special pattern of layers. There were all together 4 layers, which was made of different materials, such as sand, rocks, stones and so on.Also, Roman roads were cambered(拱形的). This means that they were built higher in the middle than on the edges, allowing rainwater to run off, which prevented flooding. We use the same technique in building roads today. The Romans also laid out roads over hills when necessary, setting them down in a zigzag(之字形的)pattern to make the road rise gradually.All Roman roads had milestones(里程碑), placed every thousand paces(a Roman mile). The milestones told when the road was built, who was emperor at the time, the road’s destination, how far the traveler was from the destination, and how many miles had been traveled since the beginning of the road. This information was a great help to travelers.Because of their excellence in construction, it really is no surprise that many parts of Roman road still exist today. These roadways are one of the most impressive achievements of the Roman Empire.33.The following description about Roman roads is true EXCEPT____.A.Roman roads were built by Roman soldiers directed by the engineersB.Roman roads could prevent flooding using the technique we don’t use todayC.Roman roads had milestones that were placed every Roman mileD.Roman roads still exist today as an impressive achievement of the Roman Empire34.What information can you find on the milestones?A.The builders of the road.B.The materials used in building roads.C.The distance from one city.D.The time spent in building roads.35.The passage mainly ____.A.explains the saying“All roads lead to Rome”B.praises ancient Romans for their great achievementsC.shows how great the Roman Empire wasD.introduces the construction of Roman roads第二节：（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）阅读下列短文，从所给的七个选项中，选出与文中横线处匹配的最佳选项，并填在题号后。
