得夺市安庆阳光实验学校赤峰二中2014级高二第一次月考英语试题第一部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
AFacebook and Twitter have become a significant threat to marriage –with social media now a factor in an increasing number of divorce cases, say lawyers.One in seven married individuals have considered divorce because of their spouse’s（配偶） postings of Facebook or other online sites, according to research. A similar percentage admit that they search online for evidence of their spouse’s disloyalty, while nearly one in five say they have daily quarrels because of the way their husband or wife uses social media. The research was assigned by law firm Gordon in response to an increase in the number of its clients who said that Facebook, Skype, Snapchat, Twitter or other social media sites had played a part in their divorce.Andrew Newbury, of law firm Gordon, said: ‘Social media is the new marriage. Five years ago Facebook was rarely mentioned in the context of a marriage ending, but now it ha s become common.” Social media, specific pictures and posts on Facebook, are now being routinely raised in divorces.’The survey by Censuswide among 2011 husbands and wives, found the most common reasons for checking their spouse’s social media accounts were to discover who they were talking to, who they were meeting and where they were going. A quarter of the married people said the resulting suspicions led to quarrels at least once a week, and 17 percent said such quarrels were daily events.Arguments were caused by contact with former partners, by the sending of secret messages, and by the posting of ‘inappropriate’ pictures. Some 14 percent said they looked at their spouse’s social media with the specific intention of detecting evidence of adultery（出轨）.1. The underlined word “disloyalty” in Paragraph 2 probably means_______.A. affectionB. discomfortC. dishonestyD. violence2. What might checking spouse’s social media accounts result in?A. The couple let out secrets quickly.B. The couple lost trust between each other.C. All the couples quarreled at least once a week.D. The couple felt comfortable about their relationship.3. By saying “Social media is the new marriage minefield”, Andrew means that _______.A. a new marriage needs social media fieldB. social media is a good thing to marriageC. social media is a new field of communicationD. marriage ending will be caused by social media4. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Facebook, a Multifunctional ToolB. Social Media, a Threat to MarriageC. Posting Pictures is Killing MarriageD. Argument about Social Media SitesBDriving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link, driving will be affected.Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is:● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or● 67 milligrams of alcohol p er 100ml of urine (尿液).Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens (样本) for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.Drink driving is a criminal offence（违法犯罪行为）. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.5. The first paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the introduction of driving skillsB. the damage of drinking to your bodyC. the effect of drinking on drivingD. the process of alcohol being absorbed6. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to“________”.A. alcoholB. absorptionC. bloodD. process7. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.B. Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice.C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit.8. A driver suspected of (被怀疑) drink driving ________.A. should provide specimens for testingB. will be forbidden to drive for 3yearsC. will be punished for 10 driving-offence pointsD. should pay a maximum fine of HK $25,000CWhen it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence.People naturally have different levels of confidence. Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals. Increasing self-confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success. If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors(上级), will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job. If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing. After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve. Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.9. What is the passage mainly about?A. The influence of confidence on one’s life.B. The importance of confidence to success.C. The difference of people’s confidence.D. The judgment on one’s confidence.10. Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those _____.A. who think their goals are hard to reachB. who expect to give guidance to othersC. who want to ask the boss for a raiseD. who dream to be recognized experts11. What does the underlined word indispensable in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. importantB. attractiveC. outgoingD. energetic12. What message does the author want to convey (传达) in the last paragraph?A. To overlook one’s disadvantages.B. To make full use of one’s advantages.C. To have great confidence in one’s abilities.D. To make objective(客观的) evaluations of one’s abilities.DChinese female scientist Tu Youyou won the 2015 Nobel Prize in medicine on October 5 for her discoveries concerning a novel treatment against Malaria（疟疾）. This is the first Nobel Prize given to a Chinese scientist for work carried out within China.Tu shared the prize with Irish-born William Campbell and Satoshi Omura of Japan, who were honored for their revolutionary anti-roundworm treatment. 84-year-old Tu is awarded this prize for her contribution to cutting the death rat e of malaria, reducing patients’ suffering and promoting mankind’s health. Although she received several medical awards in the past, the 2015 Nobel Prize is definitely the most privilege reward that recogn izes Tu’s dedication and perseverance in discovering artemisinin（青蒿素）, the key drug that battles malaria-friendly parasites（寄生虫）.However, her route to the honor has been anything but traditional. She won the Nobel Prize for medicine, but she doesn’t have a medical degree or a PhD. In China, she is even being called the “three-noes” winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and she’s never worked overseas. No wonder her success has stirred China’s national pride and helped promote confidence of native Chinese scientists.The fact that Tu has none of these three backgrounds reminds us that science should be more accessible to all. One shall be able to become a scientist no matter what kind of background he or she comes from, as long as one dives into scientific research. There have been discussions on people who really love science but are never able to achieve muchduring their whole life. Their contributions can never be ignored. They work so hard to prove the wrong way so that the future researchers will be closer to the right one.As the first Chinese mainland Nobel Prize Winner of natural science award, Tu’s record-breaking winning also serves as a reminder to those who are too eager for instant success. Science is never about instant success. Tu spent decades on scientific research before its value is officially acknowledged. There is no way to measure how much one devotes to science and compare it with how much reward he or she may get.13. It can be concluded from the text that ______.A. Tu worked home and abroad to conduct her researchB. Tu got the Nobel Prize for her anti-roundworm treatmentC. The Nobel Prize is the first award to recognize her workD. Her discovery of artemisinin has helped to cut Malaria death rate14. The author seems to agree that a person who is more likely to becomea scientist is the one with _____A. a sense of national prideB. Relevant academic knowledgeC. a desire to achieve successD. enthusiasm forscientific research15. In writing the passage, the author intends to ___________.A. inform readers of the news and make commentsB. discourage the pursuit of instant success in scienceC. remind readers of the principles of scientific researchD. praise the award winner and encourage scientific research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。

AIn Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses, etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections(注射) so that they won’t carry diseases. They have special animal food stores, though they can buy animal food in almost every kind of stores. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food.When you visit people’s houses, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.1.

While the number of US students in China has grown from less than 100 in the early 1980s to more than 10,000 currently, many of them are here to gain a professional skill as much as to enjoy a new culture.“In the past, foreign students came to China merely for our culture,” said Xu Qiuhan, director of BLCU’s foreign students office. “But because of China’s rapid economic and social development, being able to speak Chinese has become a useful tool to a student’s future job.”There are more US students who choose to stay in the country instead of going back after graduation. Stephanie Schubmehlo, a 23-year-old from Rochester, New York State, said she would like to stay in Beijing after graduation. “I love the city , and I can earn myself a living here if I can speak good Chinese,” she said, adding that some of the US studentsshe knows shared the same idea.6. This text mainly tells us that A. US students prefer to stay in ChinaB. Chinese will become popular all over the worldC. Chinese helps students from America professionallyD. US students become less interested in China’s culture 7. Sam Gor studies in Beijing in order toA. find a job thereB. have a better professional basisC. learn China’s cultureD. study different languages8. In Xu Qiuhan’s opinion, .A. Chinese helps with the development of ChinaB. more and more Americans will study in ChinaC. professional skills are more important than cultureD. China’s development makes Chinese professionally useful 9. What do Sam Gor and Stephanie Schubmehlo have in common? A. They are studying Chinese in Beijing B. They are from the same city of the US.C. They are of the same age.D. They will go back to the US after graduation.10. Which of the following statements is true according to t he text? A. Many US students know Chinese better than English.B. Chinese is the necessary subject in many American schools.C. Most US students choose to go back to America after graduation.D. It’s easier for Sam Gor to get the job with learning Chinese well.CVOIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol. It is also referred to as IP Telephony. It is another way of making phone calls. VOIP is especially popular with long distance calls. The main reason for which people are so increasingly turning to VOIP technology is the cost. VOIP is said to be cheap, but most people use it for free. Yes, if you have a computer with a microphone and speakers, and a good Internet connection, you can communicate using VOIP for free.There are basically three ways of using VOIP. One is to have a PC on both communicating sides; another is to have a phone on one side and a PC on the other and the third is to have two phones.VOIP is a relatively new technology and it has already achieved wide acceptance and use.

She sewed many of my sisters’ clothes, including both of their wedding dresses and boy’s suits for me. And on the side, she won several national bridge tournaments(桥牌锦标赛).My mom left many indelible marks on me. The first was to never lose heart and to be independent. My dad died suddenly when I was 19. My mom worked hard for a couple of years. But in1975, I won a scholarship to study in Britain and my mom surprised us all by announcing that she decided to go with me. When I met difficulties, she always said: “You’re a man, so never lose heart, never be knocked down, and try your best to pursue(追求) your dreams.”My mom’s other big influence on me is a sense of optimis m. She had taken her knocks. But every time life knocked her down, she got up and kept on marching forward, encouraged by the saying that pessimists(悲观者) are usually right, optimists are usually wrong, but most great changes are made by optimists.How I wi sh to listen to my mother’s words, and give my best regards on this Mother’s Day, but I have no chance now!

She is disabled because she has brain damage. She could not do even the simplest thing until a year ago. She could not comb her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. And they treated her like a baby.Mr. Ching has a daughter and a son. They are both grown. They live far from their father. Mr. Cling felt lonely.

Therapy is the treatment of a disease or disorder. It helps the children overcome their handicaps.Mr. Cling became a foster grandparent to Lisa when she was nine years old. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr. Cling was a stranger. But he came to see her every day, gradually she began to trust him. At last, Lisa let Mr. Cling do things for her.Cling speaks for most foster grandparents when he say, “We all benefit. The handicapped children benefit because we help them live more useful lives.

The best title for this passage is ________.A. Lisa, A Handicapped GirlB. Why Did He Do That?C. Foster GrandparentsD. The Greatest Happiness!CTo find how the name Canada came about we must go back to the 16th century. At that time, the French dreamed of disclosing and controlling more land, of expanding(扩展)trade beyond(超出) their borders and of spreading their faith(信仰) across the world .In 1535, Francois I ,King of France, ordered a navigator (航海家) named Jacques Cartier to explore(探险) the New World and search for a passage to India.Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not know what to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between two islands. If it was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upstream along the St. Lawrence River. However, instead or reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as theIndians called it. It was at this point that the term “ Canada” entered the country’s history. Apparently the word “Canada” came from an Indian work “Kanata”, which means community or village. Cartier first used it when he referred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge “ village” Canada is!66.In the early sixteenth century , the King of France ordered Cartier to ______A. f ind the new worldB. b uild an entirely new countryC. g o and visit the American IndiansD. g et more information about America and find a way to Asia67. Having reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence Cartier thought _____A. h e had already got to IndiaB. i t was a water way to the New WorldC. i t was a water passage to the EastD. h e had sailed into the Atlantic68.In the early sixteenth century , Quebec was only ____.A. a n Indian villageB. a little town in southern CanadaC. a village at the entrance to the Gulf of St. LawrenceD. t he place which we call Canada now69. Pick out the right statements from the following _____A. Q uebec was a village and Stadacona was anotherB. C artier mistook Quebec for StadaconaC. S tadacona was a village in QuebecD. S tadacona was what the Indians called Quebec then70.“Canada” was first used to refer to _____A. a small town in StadaconaB. t he place called QuebecC. a long water passageD. a huge village including Quebec and StadaconaDHave you ever heard of blogs (博客)? If you haven’t, you should have. It’s here,it’s growing and it’s having an influence on our life. Surf the Internet and you’ll find blogs everywhere. A blog, shortened from “weblog”, is a public Internet journal written by one person or a group of people. It is a website in which a person or a group can place news, personal thoughts, text, photos, video or audio files, or links upon which visitors can comment. A blog lets you post on the Internet without having to know web design or be technical. You are given an environment to make dated entries on the topic of your choice which are “publish ed”, so other people can read them. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called “blogging”. Blogging has revolutionized Internet publishing in the last several years because it gives everyone with Internet access the opportunity to become an online writer. Objects, such as “text and photos” in a blog can be called “blog posts”, “posts”, or “entries”. The person who posts these entries is called a “blogger”.Now, somewhere around the world, a blog is created almost every 6 seconds. Because it’s great potential, Bill Gates views it as important as e-mail, BBS, and MSN. He’s trying to make blogsthe important tools for future business communications.71. A blog is .A. a commentB. an Internet journalC. a designD. a link72. A person can do the following things in a blog EXCEPT _______.A. talk to othersB. give commentsC. read articlesD. enjoy photos73. Who is a blogger?A. A person who posts letters.B. A person who writes articles.C. A person who posts text or photos in a blog.D. A person who is an online publisher.74. From the passage we know that .A.

2013-2014年第二学期高二英语月考
高二英语第一次月考卷I卷第一部分A.阅读理解（共15题，每小题2分，共30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
(A)UK parents hope their kids can grow into successful people so they make their kids learn all kinds of subjects after school. Though some kids are very young, they still take part in a lot of after-class activities.In UK, 20% of parents spend yearly 600 pounds on different classes for their kids. For example, young kids have to learn French, swimming, painting and so on to follow their parents' ideas. 75% of parents think that early learning is good for kids. Most kids who go to after-class activities are under 6 years old.The famous educator Lisa Houghton says, “Although learning different kinds of subjects is important to kids, it's more important to make them have a happy childhood. Parents should spend more time having, fun with their kids, not just making them stay in the classrooms.”1. UK parents make their kids learn a lot because they hope their kids canA. become successful peopleB. enjoy their lifeC. be famous2. Young kids go to learn a lot after class because they want toA. enjoy themselves by studyingB. do what their parents tell themC. be better than others3. The idea "Early learning is good for kids. " is supported by of the UK parents.A. 20%B. 60%C. 75%4. How old are most of the kids who go to after-class activities?A. Over 6 years old.B. Only 6 years old.C. Under 6 years old.(B)Happines s is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations(祝贺) to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. Ifyou notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also feel you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge(挑战) yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.5.Those who have big houses may often feel____.A. happyB. lonelyC. freeD. excited6.When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will____A. laugh at youB. play jokes on youC. quarrel with youD. help you up7. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress（取得进步）?A. Oh, so do IB. CongratulationsC. Good luckD. It’s just so-so8.Which of the following is this passage about?A. Bad luckB. Good luckC. HappinessD. Life(C)Hundreds of years ago，a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, love their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans.It looked as if the Romans would win.One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill.“We will rest here tonight，my men，”he said，“Tomorrow we will fight one more battle.We must win，or we will die.”They were all very tired.So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep.There were four guards on duty，but they were very tired, too, and one by one, they fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep.Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they went up the hill. Closer they came to the sleeping Scots.They were almost at the top.A few minutes more the war would be over.Suddenly，one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟)．He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a minute they wereon their feet and ready for a battle.The fighting was hard，but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it.Few people liked it.But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.9．Hundreds of years ago，the Romans________.A．came from the north through England to make war on ScotlandB．came to the north Scotland from England to make war on ScotlandC．came from the north of England to fight the ScotsD．came to the north from the south of Britain to fight the Scots10．At the shout of a Roman soldier, all the Scots who were asleep at the hill________.A．began to fight the Romans hard.B．stood up without putting on their shoes and began to fightC．woke and rose immediately, ready to fightD．put their feet into their shoes at once and were ready to fight11．The Scots were waken because________.A．they were too tired to sleep wellB．one of the guards pretended to sleepC．one of the Romans stepped on a thistle and let out a cryD．because the Romans got too close and they discovered them12．The Scots made thistle their national flower because thistle________.A．is lovely，though not beautifulB．gave them happinessC．is a kind of useful plantD．helped the Scots in wiping out the Romans（D）Imagine this：your child has just been involved in an emergency. You call 911. The medical workers rush in and begin asking you questions as they work to rescue your child. But they also ask questions about your child's medical history. It's hard to think clearly. You begin to answer and then end up saying，“I don't remember.I don'tknow.”So, many doctors suggest that parents keep a record of their children's important health facts handy. This can often help the medical team make a better and more rapid diagnosis (诊断)of a problem at a time when time really counts.The most important information to know is the child's allergies(过敏). It is especially crucial if the child is allergic to any medicine—penicillin，for example. Food allergies can come into play，too, so make note of those as well. Children who have been hospitalized in the past may have developed latex(胶乳)allergies. Often this information can help emergency workers find a cause for problems like breathing difficulties.Keep a list of any medicine, including what your child is now taking. Some medicines can cause an adverse reaction when they are taken together，so the doctors need this information before they give your child anything. You'll need to know when the child took the medicine last and how much was taken.It is also important to tell emergency workers about any health problem or illness your child has had. These pre-existing conditions can have a huge effect on the type of tests and treatment in an emergency.Consider having any child who has a health problem wear a tag (标签)around his neck.This kind of rapid notice can help doctors who are providing emergency care，especially if your child suddenly becomes ill at day care，school，or a friend's house.13. According to the first paragraph, the author probably thinks that, in an emergency，________.A．parents usually can't recall their children's medical historyB．doctors shouldn't ask parents too many questionsC．the medical service offered by 911 is not goodD．parents should record their children's daily activities14．How many types of allergies are mentioned in Paragraph 2?A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four.15．The underlined word“adverse”in Paragraph 3 probably means ________. A．beneficial B．harmful C．physical D．emotionalB.根据短文内容，从短文后的7个选项中选出5个能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AOne day，when 12-year-old Sean Redden went to a popular chat room on the Internet, he saw the name of someone he’d never seen there before, Susan Hicks. Her message was “ Would someone help me? I can’t breathe. Help me! I can’t feel my left side.”At first, Sean thought it was a bad joke and he told his mother Sharon Redden. But she asked, “ It’s not just some game, is it?The message was not a joke. “ Susan Hicks” was actually 20-year-old Taija Laitinen, a student working late at night at a college library near Helsinki, Finland---almost 7,000 miles away from Sean’s home in Texas. While searching the Internet, she began to feel terrible pain all through her body. The library was empty and the nearest phone was outside in the hallway. She couldn’t move that far because any movement caused the pain to get worse. Then as the pain became worse, she began typing her message for help in the chat room.“I don’t think it’s a joke, mom,” Sean said. He typed, “ Where are you? The letters appeared, “Finland.” Sean and Sharon couldn’t believe it. Not knowing what else to do, Sharon called the local police and explained the situation to officer Amy Schmidt. Schmidt told Sharon to try to get the sick girl’s phone number and address.Meanwhile, the Texas police called the international telephone operator and asked to be connected to the proper agency(机构) in Finland. The Texas police explained the situation and gave Susan’s address to the Finnish operator. When Sean heard that, he typed, “Help is on the way.”In the few minutes, the library door opened. Doctors and three policemen ran in. Taija turned once more to the computer, “ They are here. Thanks. Bye-bye.”1.

Rainer Nolvak, a businessman and his friends wanted to clean up all the rubbish in Estonia. The rubbish was not just an environmental problem. It was a problem of people’s attitudes. Rainer Nolvak got together with a team of 20 friends and they began to make a plan about how to clean up the rubbish. Soon, over 600 people joined in the group.They named the project(工程) Let’s Do It! Estonia. The Ministry of the environment gave them some support. Many other companies joined in the group. Famous actors and singers also took part. Even the President of Estonia joined in. They sent information about Let’s Do It! Estonia throughout the country.Technology experts developed a special computer program. Team members went into the forests to find where the rubbish was. They used their mobile phones to mark every place where they found rubbish and send the information to the computer program. Then, the marked rubbish places appeared on the map. Anyone could go on the Internet and see the map.The team found a surprising result. There were over 10,000 tons of waste in the forests of Estonia. When people saw how much waste was around their own homes, they were shocked. Thousands of people began to help. The team chose May 3, 2008 as the day to clean up the rubbish.On May 3, more than 50,000 people helped to get rid of the rubbish. They moved over 10,000 tons of rubbish in only one day!This was amazing for the environment in Estonia. But it was also an important step for Estonian society. Rainer Nolvak gave a speech at a conference in the Balkans. He said: “The most important thing we did was to build a team. It changed every one of us. We had to connect to people. We had to see that the rubbish was our problem. At times we are afraid of sharing. When we are together and there are many of us, we are not afraid.’5. The Project Let’s Do It!

高二下学期第一次英语月考试卷
高二第二学期第一次月考试题(附答案)第一部分阅读理解(共两节；满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
AMy three-year-old granddaughter fell from her bike onto the road before I could catch her. Emily lay there for a moment, guessing her chances of survival. Finding the chances were in her favor, she sat up with a smile that quickly turned into tears when she saw the blood on her knee. I took her in my arms, saying words of comfort as I carried her into the house to mend her hurt.With much comfort, she let me wash and put ointment on her knee. I kissed her cheek. “All better now, sweetie？”“No, Grandma. you must say the Mommy words.” she said. I quickly ran a list of Mommy words through my mind: Please? Thank you? I love you? “You know, Grandma. Mommy says them to make me all better.” Emily took a deep breath and recited (朗诵), “A little k iss, a little hug, I give you these, with all my love.”My mind raced and I remembered. It was the same little song that I had said to my children, my mother to me, and her mother to her. My grandmother had died when my mother was eight. There had been nothing left but her dear memories. When she became a mother herself, she passed on the gentle love of her mother and the “Mommy words” that made all bad things go away and only the good remain. Hearing it now, I realized that though I had never metmy grandmother. I did know her. We were mothers —we were connected at the heart.I heard my grandmother's, my mother's, my daughter's, my granddaughter's, and my own voice mixing through time.“Don't cry, Grandma. I am all better.” Emily and I kissed and hugged, and said the Mommy words to each other.21．After falling from the bike, Emily lay on the ground for a moment ________.A. wondering if she was aliveB. waiting for her grandmother's helpC. because she was badly injuredD. because she was deeply shocked22．Why did Emily ask the author to say the Mommy words?A. She missed her mother very much.B. She just wanted to confuse the author.C. She wanted the author to comfort her.D. She hoped to learn the Mommy words.23．The underlined word “her” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.A. the author's grandmotherB. the author's motherC. the author's daughterD. the author's granddaughter24．What do you think is the theme of the story?A. A mother's love is great.B. Children are our teacher.C. True love shows itself in time of need.D. Kind words are the music of the world.BYou just heard you have a math test on Friday — the same day as your big history test and weekly quiz on Spanish verbs. How will you get all your studying done?Studying for tests and quizzes actually starts before you even know you'll have a test. Good study techniques begin in the classroom as you take notes. Note-taking is a way of remembering what you were taught or what you've read about. Even if you are an amazingly organized and neat note-taker, copying and organizing notes after class helps you absorb and understand the material. And that makes studying easier and faster at test time.As you study, review your notes and any special information from your textbook. In the case of math or science problems, do some practice. Pay special attention to anything the teacher seemed to stress in class.Many teachers tell students ahead of time what the format (格式) of an exam will be. This can help you study. For example, if the exam will contain essay questions, you'll want to think about which topics are most likely to be covered. Then come up with several possible essay topics and use your notes, books and other reference sources to figure out how you might answer questions on those topics.When trying to memorize dates, names, or other factual information, keep in mind that it usually takes a number of tries to remember something correctly. Read things over several times if youneed to, and write down any phrases or thoughts that will help you remember main ideas or concepts.25．The best title for the passage would be “________”．A. Note-taking Is ImportantB. How to Study in ClassC. How to Prepare for ExamsD. Ways to Study26．According to the passage, the first step to get a high score in a test is to ________.A. remember what you've learnedB. take notes in classC. understand what you're taughtD. do more exercises27．Before an exam teachers usually tell students ________.A. what they'll examine onB. what they should pay attention toC. how to answer questionsD. the ways to take an examcIf you travel to a new exhibit at the San Francisco Greenhouse of Flowers, you will have a chance to see some meat-eating plants. Take bladderworts, a kind of such plant, for example. They appear so small and grow in a quiet pool. But these are the fastest-known killers of the plant kingdom, able to catch a small insect in 1/50 of a second using a trap (陷阱) door!Once the trap door closes on the animal falling into it, theenzymes (酶) similar to those in the human stomach slowly digest the insect. When dinner is over, the plant opens the trap door and is ready for trap again.Meat-eating plants grow mostly in wet areas with soil that doesn't offer much food value. In such conditions, these amazing plants have developed insect traps to get their nutritional (营养) needs over thousands of years. North America has more such plants than any other continent.Generally speaking, the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye, like pitcher plants, which get their name because they look like beautiful pitchers( a container like a bottle) full of honey.The Asian pitcher plant, for example, has bright colors and an attractive half-closed cover. Curious insects are attracted to come close and take a drink, then fall down the slippery wall to their deaths.Some of these pitchers are large enough to hold two gallons(7.5 liters). Meat-eating plants only eat people in science movies, but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn't a good place to get a drink.28．From Paragraph 1, we can know that meat eating plants can ________.A. catch 50 small insects in a secondB. catch an insect in the shortest timeC. be found floating on a quiet lakeD. notice an insect in 1/50 of a second29．What does it mean if the trap door of a meat-eating plant isclosed?A. The plant is fooling insects into taking a drink.B. The plant is producing honey.C. The plant is attracting insects to come close.D. The plant is enjoying a dinner.30．Meat-eating plants can grow in wet and poor soil because they ________.A. can get nutrition from animalsB. don't need much food valueC. can make the most of such conditionsD. have developed digestive enzymes31．We learn from the text that meat-eating plants ________.A. are big and tallB. like to grow in dry landC. look bright and beautifulD. are usually covered with hairDA Day of HopeA Day of Hope is a student-run non-profit (非营利性的) organization that sends baskets of food for Thanksgiving to poor families in Northern California. Over the past three years, A Day of Hope has sent baskets of food to 405 families in need.Arts for All AgesArts for All Ages is a non-profit organization that travels to schools, day care centres (日托所), and homeless shelters with the intention of giving children the opportunity to experience and experiment with the performing and fine arts in central Florida. We set up lessons and workshops for all children, who show an interest in learning any one of the arts we teach, free of any cost to them.Charity MusicCharity Music is a non-profit public service organization that lends musical instruments free of charge to people wishing to explore their musical talents. Its goal is to help develop future musical artists. The organization's Musical Instrument Donation Program was established in 1996 by former Macomb Symphony Orchestra President, Roger Fachini.The Food for Everyone FoundationThe Food for Everyone Foundation is a non-profit organization that travels to poor areas throughout the world, teaching people how to grow gardens that will produce 5 to 10 times more than traditional methods.House Rabbit SocietyHouse Rabbit Society is a volunteer-based international non-profit organization with two primary goals：1) To rescue abandoned rabbits and find permanent homes for them.2) To educate the public and assist caring societies, through the website, articles on rabbit care, phone consultation, and classes upon request.One Note at A TimeOne Note at A Time brings free professional music education to Haitian students living in rural mountain towns. In addition to preparing students for a potential musical career, these classes help to prevent children from wandering the streets and joining local bad guys, One Note at A Time also provides English classes and works with One Block at A Time, an organization that builds houses for the families and friends of these music students.32．What's the purpose of A Day of Hope?A. To set up schools for children in Northern California.B. To help children understand the importance of arts.C. To provide food for families on a special festival.D.

AIn American schools there is something called Homecoming Day. Many high schools and colleges with a football team have a homecoming game. This can be the most important event of the year except graduation or commencement (毕业典礼)Day. Students plan Homecoming Day many weeks in advance.Several days before Homecoming, students start to decorate the school. There are signs to wish luck to the team, and many other signs to welcome all the graduates. Many people still come to Homecoming twenty or thirty years after their graduation.The members of school clubs build booths(售货棚) and sell lemonade(柠檬汽水)，apples and sandwiches. Some clubs help to welcome visitors. During the day alumni and their wives will gather at the school. They like to look for teachers that they remember. Often they see old friends and they talk together about those happy years in school.Everyone soon comes to watch the football game. When the game is halfover, the band comes onto the field and plays school songs. Anotherimportant moment is when the Homecoming Queen or King appears. All thestudents vote the most popular student Homecoming Queen or King. It isa great honor to be chosen.Homecoming is a happy day, but it is not perfect unless the footballteam wins the game. Even if the game loses, the students still enjoy Homecoming. Some stay at the school to dance, and others go to a party.For everyone it is a day worth remembering.1. The best title of this passage is ________.A. Homecoming GameB. American SchoolC. Homecoming DayD. Homecoming Queen or King2. Which of the following is NOT done on Homecoming?A. To organize clubs.B. To see old friends.C. To call on teachers they remember.D. To watch thefootball game.3. The underlined word “ alumni” refers to ________.A. male former students of a school or collegeB. female former students of a school or collegeC. grandmothers of the students in a school or collegeD. grandfathers of the students in a school or collegeBSometi mes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Surely we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world. The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on thoseyou need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positiveself-image. When you can pat yourself on the back, you’ll know you’rewell on your way. Good luck!4. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to face challenges in your life.B. How to build apositive self-image. C. How to develop you good qualities.D. How to prepare for your success.5. You need to build a positive self-image when you .A. feel it hard to change yourselfB. dare to challengeyourself C. have a high opinion of yourselfD. are unconfident about yourself6.How should you change your self-image according to the passage?A. To understand your own worldB. To keep a different imageof others.C. To make your life successful.D. To change the way youthink.7.According to the passage, our self-images .A. are probably untrueB. have different functionC. are often changeableD. have positive effects CDavid Beckham was born in 1975 in London, at a place called Leytonstone. When he was a young boy, his greatest passion was in football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award. This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Essex and also for his county team.In 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he could practice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under-21 team. In April, 1995 he played his first football league game agains t Leeds Untied. During 1995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both football seasons, with David scoring many goals.His goals made him a household name. In the first game of the 1996-1997 season, he scored an surprising goal from beyond the halfway line; seeing the goalkeeper a little way out of his goal, Beckham became famousovernight. He continued to score astonishing goals, especially from free-kicks. The speed of one of his shots was timed at 157 kph. He also had the ability to make the ball go from left to right, or right to left, whenever he chose. Goalkeepers were never sure where the ball was going, and it regularly ended up in the goal.8. Which word can take the place of the underlined word “passion” in Paragraph 1?B. success A. interest D. prizeC. skill9. The unusually surprising way that he scored goals______.A. kept him playing for Leeds UnitedB. helped him to gain many prizes for EssexC. made him popular and famousD. offered him the chance to join the national team10.

Beckham played for the schools of Essex.A. b, e, d, a, cB. e, d, a, c, bC. b, d, e, c, aD. e, b, a, d, c11. The passage mainly talks about______.A. what abilities Beckham had to score so many goalsB. how Beckham became a successful football playerC. why Beckham could win in football league gamesD. when Beckham became famous all over BritainDThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have an equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, while the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons and events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. They enjoy all cheerful things. Those who are unhappy think and speak only of unpleasant things. Through their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeableeverywhere. If this turn of mind is founded in nature, such unhappy people should be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation（模仿）. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it can be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects.Although this attitude is mainly an act of the imagination, it has serious results since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. If such people aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word in favor of their hopes. If they are criticized, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join in criticizing their wrong doings. So they should change this bad habit and stop worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, they will have a disagreeable time, especially when someone becomes mixed up in their quarrels.12. How does the writer tell the happy from the unhappy?A. According to their attitudes to the same thing.B. According to their wealth.C. According to their habits.D. According to their degree of health.13. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” probably means“________”.A. enjoy the pleasure of lifeB. have a good attitude towardssocial lifeC. make others unhappyD. tend to scold others openly14. If such unhappy people insist on keeping the habit, the authorsuggests that people should ________.A. show no respect for themB. not have any communication withthemC. persuade them to recognize the bad effects of their habitsD. quarrel with them until they realize their mistakes15. In this passage, the writer mainly ________.A. laughs at unhappy peopleB. suggests ways to help unhappy peopleC. describes two types of peopleD. tells people how to be happyin life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。
