高中英语真题：2015届高三上学期期中考试试卷试题.doc一、阅读理解(共5题)1.When Paul was a boy growing up in Utah, he happened to live near a copper smelter (炼铜厂), and the chemicals that poured out had made a wasteland out of what used to be a beautiful forest. One day a young visitor looked at this wasteland and called it an awful area. Paul knocked him down. From then on, something happened inside him.Years later Paul was back in the area, and he went to the smelter office. He asked if they had any plans or if they would let him try to bring the trees back. The answer from that big industry was “No”.Paul then went to college to study the science of plants. Unfortunately, his teachers said th ere weren’t any birds or squirrels to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that, he was told. Even if he was knowledgeable as he had expected, he wouldn’t get his ideaaccepted.Paul later got married but his dream would not die. And then one night he did what he could with what he had. As Samuel Johnson wrote, “It is common to overlook what is near by keeping the eye fixed on something remote. Attainable good is often ignored by minds busied in wide range s.” Under the cover of darkness, he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.And every week, he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. For fifteen years he did this against the plain common sense. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later, as there was legal pressure to clean up the environment, the company actually hired Paul to do what he was already doing.Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass and bushes, and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned white, but he managed to keep that impossible vow (誓言) he made to himself as a child.21. When Paul was a boy, _______.A. he had decided never to leave his hometownB. the economy of Utah depended wholly on the copper smelterC. he hit a young visitor because of his comments on the wastelandD. he stopped the copper smelter polluting the area22. Paul went to college to study the science of plants, because _______.A. he wanted to find out the best way to save the area himselfB. he was interested in planting trees since he was youngC. he wanted to get more knowledgeable people to help himD. he thought his knowledge would make his advice more convincing23. W hat does the underlined phrase “the plain common sense” probably mean?A. It was impossible for trees to grow on the wasteland.B. His normal work and life would be greatly affected.C. No one would like to join him in the efforts.D. He had to keep everything he did secret.24. The company hired Paul to plant trees and grass because_______.A. they realized the importance of environmental protectionB. what Paul was doing moved themC. Paul persuaded them to help himD. they had legal pressure2.Music died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the importance of music and drama as part of the high-school curriculum (课程).The committee decided that teaching students how to take a standardized test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is running out of funding, it needs to make sure that students pass the test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test，it is not the fault of drama and music classes—they are failing because the “academic” classes are not sufficient (充足的).It is painful to think of how many students will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school committee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete,well-rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express feelings through art—there is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge—certainly not a good preparation for the real world.25. Music and drama are not included in the high school curriculum mainly because ________.A. the school committee pays no attention to themB. the school is afraid of losing financial supportC. the students are not interested in both of themD. the state standardized test is more important26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The sufficiency of the classes determines students’ performance in the mastery test.B. Quite a few students are discouraged from learning music and art in today’s school system.C. Students can be musicians and artists only if they can afford private music lessons.D. The school committee completely influences students’attitude towards the arts.27. We can learn that music and art can ________.A. motivate students in creativity and expressionB. make students round-shaped people in futureC. provide students with analytical thinkingD. prevent students graduation from high school28. The best title of the passage can be ________.A. Who killed music and drama?B. Can curriculum go without music?C. Why is music so important?D. How to prepare for the real world?3. For more than 40 years, scientists have sought to learn how wellhuman beings can adapt to long periods in space. The International Space Station continues to provide valuable knowledge about spaceflight. But an earlier space station, Skylab, helped make the current space project possible.Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield sang aboard the International Space Station on May 12, 2013. His music video has become extremely popular. The astronaut played his own version of David Bowie’s so ng Space Oddity. He performed while floating weightlessly, with images of planet earth and space appearing in the window behind him.Chris Hadfield recently returned home after nearly five months on the space station. For him, the long flight produced a hit video on YouTube and no major physical problems. But 40 years ago, scientists did not know how humans would react to long-term spaceflight. To find out, NASA, the American space agency, launched Skylab in May, 1973. Over nearly a year, three teams of astronauts visited Skylab for stays of between 28 to 84 days. They learned how people react to extended periods in space.Gerald Carr commanded Skylab 4. He spoke at a NASA event marking the 40th anniversary of Skylab’s launch. He s aid that the loss of the body’s muscle mass was a main concern. Astronauts on Skylab used exercise equipment to stay strong. The astronauts spent their workdays carrying out experiments, including biomedical (生物医学的) research.Marshall Porterfie ld is the director of NASA’s Space Life and Physical Sciences Division. He says the Skylab astronauts’ understanding of their own ability to deal with long-term spaceflight continues to help current astronauts. NASA says the next step for life away from Earth is a year-longspace station mission, set for 2015.29. Why was Chris Hadfield’s song so special?A. It was performed in space.B. It was created by an astronaut.C. It was a very familiar song.D. It was first sung by a famous singer.30. Which of the following best describes the physical condition of Chris Hadfield after his return?A. Worse.B. Better.C. Normal.D. Weaker.31. For what purpose did NASA launch Skylab?A. To research on whether human beings could stay in space.B. To gather up information on setting up a space station.C. To study the changes in the body when staying long in space.D. To find out the possibility of doing experiments in space.32. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Skylab is still in use to explore the space.B. The research results on Skylab are still valuable.C. Skylab is more advanced than the International Space Station.D. The Skylab astronauts made great contributions to biomedical research.4.Suppose you are thinking about attending college in the United States, but perhaps you might not be ready for a university with a four-year program. About 88,000 international students have found solution. They are attending U.S. community colleges. Such colleges are sometimes called junior colleges. They offer two years of education above the secondary or high school level.Community college students can choose from subjects like medical assistance, computer science or law. At the end of their study program, they receive a document of completion, called a certificate. Some students work toward an associate degree in traditional academic subjects like science or history. After getting it, the students can move on to a four-year college or university. They may have only two years of study left before they receive abachelor’s degree.Many educational experts agree that saving money is the major reason to consider a community college. The American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) says that a public two-year college costs 3,000 dollar a year on average. That is true if the student lives in the same state as the school. A student at a four-year public college may pay 8,500 dollars a year for classes and user fees. That does not include books and other materials.Some international students may need more preparation in English before entering a community college in the United States. For example, Istrif Montgomery came to the U.S. from Kosovo in 2006. First, he worked to improve his English at Montgomery College for a year. Then for the next two years, he attended classes in basic subjects in a community college.The international students at two-year colleges need to find a place to live. Most community colleges do not provide student housing on their grounds. But Mr Montgomery had a home nearby. He was able to ride the bicycle, and he was able to walk if he wanted. In fact, most community college students live within five to ten miles off the college.33. What’s the biggest advantage of a community college?A. The classes are free of charge.B. The students can save much time.C. The students can save a lot of money.D. It is convenient for students to live in the college.34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Mr Montgomery usually goes to school on foot.B. Most students in community colleges don’t live far away.C. 8,500 dollars covers all the cost of a four-year public college.D. International students often attend a community college directly.35. What’s the main purpose of the passage?A. To encourage students to study abroad.B. To tell the international students how to save money.C. To tell us it’s a good choice to study in public colleges.D. To give some information about community colleges.5.36 The answer is that the government needs money for many things, for example to pay its army, to build public facilities and to buy goods from abroad, and only the people of the country can supply the money.37 That is, a person pays according to the amount of his income. Whether he is a merchant, a doctor, a lawyer, a shopkeeper, a miner, or anything else, he must pay tax if his income is more than a certain amount. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money direct to the government.Another tax is paid on goods such as watches, jewelry, tobacco, wine, etc. When they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops. 38People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on things that they and their families need. We need policemen to catch thieves, and they must be paid what they earn; children need education and there must be schools and teachers; we want our streets to be kept clean, and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid. 39 And we cannot have an army without paying for it.40 We have no real cause to complain when we are asked to pay taxes for the good of ourselves and for our fellow citizens.A. Why must we pay taxes?C. Taxes, therefore, cannot be avoided.D. Taxes, however, should be cancelled.E. One of the most important taxes is income tax.F. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper.G. Above all, the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies.二、完型填空(共1题)1.Starbucks is the biggest coffee shop network in the world with more than 15,000 shops in 44 countries.

The one who can use English to communicate.BWealth starts with a goal saving a dollar at a time. Call it the pig gy bank strategy(策略). There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container.Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps. I f you wished to climb a 12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only h ave to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip in 10 years for a special occasion, to co llect the $15,000 cost, you have to save $3.93 a day. If you dro p that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a sa vings account at 1% interest rate after-tax, you will have your trip money.When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teac h me that, if I wanted something, I should save money to buy it. We associate piggy banks with children, but in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth. Around the world, many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year’s Day b rings good luck and financial success. Ah, but you have to put s omething in it.Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving? Why not an elepha nt bank, which is bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle A ges, before modern banking and credit instruments, people sav ed money at home, a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or di sh. Potters(制陶工) made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay(黏土) called “pygg,” and folks saved coins in pygg jars.The Middle English word for pig was “pigge”. While the Saxons pronounce d pygg, referring to the clay, as “pug”, eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation, sounding the “i” as in pig or piggy. As the word became less associated with the orange c lay and more with the animal, a clever potter fashioned a pygg j ar in the shape of a pig, delighting children and adults. The pigg y bank was born.Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money, brin ging in a sense of seriousness into savings. While piggy banks t each children the wisdom of saving, adults often need to relear n childhood lessons. Think about the things in life that require la rge amounts of money--- college education, weddings, cars, medical care, starting a bu siness, buying a home, and fun stuff like great trips. So when y ou have money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and inv est wisely.5. What is the piggy bank strategy?A. Paying 1% income tax at a time.B. Setting a goal before making a travel plan.C. Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.D. Aiming high even when doing small things.6. Why did the writer’s parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?A. To delight him with the latest fashion.B. To encourag e him to climb mountains.C. To teach him English pronunciation.D. To help him f orm the habit of saving.7. The piggy bank originally was ________.A. a cheap clay containerB. a potter’s instrumentC. an animal-shaped dishD. a pig-like toy for children8. The last paragraph talks about ________.A. the seriousness of educating childrenB. the enjo yment of taking a great tripC. the difficulty of starting a businessD. the importa nce of managing moneyCThe behaviour of a building’s users may be at least as import ant as its design when it comes to energy use, according to ne w research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC). Th e UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放）by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own — though extremely important- is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using t he building has to change too.The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to imp rove energy efficiency (效率)，which instead focus on architectural and technological develop ments.‘Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everythin g,’explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher，‘consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most car eful design. ’In other words，old habits die hard, even in the best-designed eco-home. Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers don’t have the knowledge they need to change their ene rgy-use habits. Without specific information，it’s hard to estimate the costs and benefits of making different c hoices. Feedback (反馈） facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors，could help bridge this information gap by helping people see ho w changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; so me studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters.Social science research has added a further dimension (方面），suggesting that individuals’ behaviour in the home can be perso nal and cannot be predicted — whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat (恒温器) , for example.Janda argues that education is the key. She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and their own beha viour in them.9.As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the i mportance of________.A. the behaviour of building usersB. zero-carbon homesC. sustainable building designD. the reduction of carbon emissions10. What are Katy Janda’s words mainly about?A. The necessity of making a careful building design.B. The importance of changing building users’ habits.C. The variety of consumption patterns of building users.D. The role of technology in improving energy efficiency.11. The information gap in energy use _______.A. affects the study on energy monitorsB. can be bridged by feedback facilitiesC. brings about problems for smart metersD. will be caused by building users’ old habits12.What does the dimension added by social science research sug gest?A. The social science research is to be furthered.B. The education programme is under discussion.C. The behaviour preference of building users is similar.D. The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.DThe kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep b eside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They ha ve no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and s ome can make words.The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. g roup called One Laptop Per Child.The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology rese archers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have alread y learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarte n,” said Matt Keller, who runs the program.The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to sav e memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its working s and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in .With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any Engli sh. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” w here they can read to learn. It won’t be in , ’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jo bs.13. How does the program benefit the kids in the village?A. It contributes to their self-study. B. It trains teachers for them.C. It helps raise their living standards.D. It provides funds for building schools.14. It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.A. draw pictures of animals.B. learn English words quickly.C. write letters to researchers.D. make phone calls to hi s friends.15. What is the aim of the project?A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.C. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.D. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.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。

AIf the word researcher brings to mind someone who works in a laboratory doing experiments or reads a11 day in a librar y,then meet Dr.Sylvia Earle.Dr.Earle has carried out much of her research deep under the sea.Her outstanding work at sea ha s included leading around 70 expeditions(探索)and spending over 6,500 hours under the water. She also holds the world record for the deepest walk alone on the ocean floor at a depth of 381 metres.It’s no wonder she ha s been given the nickname“Her Deepness”.As a child,Dr.Earle was always interested in wildlife and was never afraid to find out about nature.Her parents told her to touch animals and insects,and not to be afraid of them.When she was older,she was given the opportunity to develop this int erest thanks to scho1arships to study botany at university.She also took courses in sea diving and decided to devote herself t o marine(海洋的)biology.It was this decision and her determined character that led her to have a truly remarkable career.After several years of diving,Dr.Earle took part in a research expedition in an underwater laboratory.The laboratory was called a Tektite Habitat and it allowed divers to remain under the water to carry out research for weeks at a time.In 1970 an all-female group went on the sixth expedition of the Tektite II scientists-in-the-water programme.Dr.Earle was asked to lead the expedition.Along with another four women-three scientists and an engineer-she stayed in the Tektite Habitat for two wee ks.Marine life has always been at the centre of Dr.Earle’s work and she is highly respected for her authority in this field.She i s often asked to give talks by environmental groups about marine life as well as her plan to create a global network of marin e protected areas. What makes her extra special is that she doesn’t look upon her work as a job,but as her vocation(天职)in life.21.In what way is Dr.Earle different from most researchers we know about?A.She works in a laboratory doing experiments all day.B.She reads all day in a library.C.She carries out much of her research deep under the sea.D.She has broken lots of world records.22.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2？A.Dr.Earle’s interest in wildlife led her to a truly remarkable career.B.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to her family background.C.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to the scholarships to study botany at university.D.V arious factors have contributed to Dr.Earle’s success.23.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 3？A.Five women took part in the expedition.B.Five scientists took part in the expedition.C.Dr.Earle was an ordinary member of the group.D.The group stayed under water for three weeks.24.What does Dr.Earle hope to achieve in the future?A.To keep marine life at the centre of her work.B.To create protected areas in the oceans around the world.C.To travel around the world giving talks.D.To look upon her work as her vocation in life.BA paperclip,made of steel wire bent into a looped()shape,is an instrument used to hold sheets of paper toget her.This common device is a wonder of simplicity and function.But where did this simple,cheap,and practical invention co me from?In the late 19th century,the most common way to hold papers together was by using a pin.Although the pin was an ine xpensive tool and was easily removable,it would 1eave holes in the ter,as steelvwire became more common,invent ors began to notice its elastic()feature.With this feature,it could be stretched and twisted into various clip-like objects.In the years just before 1900,quite a few paperclip designs appeared.The name most frequently associated with the paperclip invention is Johan Vaaler,a Norwegian inventor.However,Vaaler’s clips were not the same as the paperclips curr entlyin use.Specifically,they did not have the inside loop we see today.The familiar looped design was invented by Gem Manuf acturing Ltd.in England.This clip is therefore sometimes known as the Gem clip.Because of Vaaler,the paperclip played an important historical role in Norway.During World War II,Norway was occu pied by the Nazis.Norwegians were prohibited from wearing any symbol of their national unity(),such as buttons wi th the initials of their king.Thus,in protest,they started wearing paperclips to show their unity.The reason for doing this was simple:Paperclips were a Norwegian invention whose original function was to bind together.After the war,a giant papercli p statue was put up in Oslo to honour Vaaler—even though his design was never actually produced.25.According to the first paragraphthe paperclip is________.A.made of paperB.for holding clothes togetherC.shaped like a pinD.inexpensive and useful26.One way the paperclip is better than the pin is that_________A.it is cheaperB.it is simplerC.it doesn’t damage the paperD.it can be removed more easily27.Which of the following best shows what the Gem clip looks like?28.The last paragraph is mainly about_________.A.how widely used Vaaler’s clip isB.how V aalers clip became a national symbolC.how the Nazis ruled the Norwegian peopleD.why Norwegians had the initials of their king on their buttonsCI was born on the last day of February.I’ve always felt sorry for February,squeezed between the big months of January( named for the Roman god Janus,keeper of gateways)and March(after Mars,the god of war).The first Roman calendar,it is said,had 10 months and no February.Beginning at the vernal equinox()with March,i t ended with December.In an agricultural society,winter was of little importance,and thus went undivided.January and February were added about 700 B.C.by the second king of Rome,Numa Pompilius.He made all the months 29 or 31 days,but shortened February,the last month of the year,by giving it only 28.Next,it was the church’s turn.In 1582 Pope Gregory XIII announced a new calendar in Europe.Many changes were ma de,but the Pope passed up yet another chance to give February equality with the other months.It’s messy,even dangerous,changing how we measure time,but Pope Gregory was hardly the last one to try.The League o f Nations received over 150 new calendar designs,and the United Nations has considered more proposals since.Each propos al involves something that supposedly modernizes the calendar.But I have a simpler proposal that won’t lead to chaos,and will correct the historical injustices against Februarymove the last day of January and the last day of March into February to make it a normal month with 30 days,and a respecta ble 31 on leap years().This would not add or subtract a single day from the calendar year.It’s a great idea.And unlike J ulius and Augustus,I won’t even demand a month named in my honor.29.The first Roman calendar had only 10 months because_________.A.February hated to be squeezed between the big monthsB.the god of war always fought with January and FebruaryC.the Romans did not like the cold winter weatherD.it was Considered unnecessary to divide winter30.Which of the following is closest to Numa Pompilius’calendar?31.The writer sounds_____in the passage.A.sadB.humorousC.happyD. angryDOne important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughter’s kindergarten report car d.She got high praise for her reading,vocabulary and overall enthusiasm.On the other hand,We learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and computer skills,though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words tha t might be interpreted as negative()in describing her efforts.A number System indicates how she’s measuring up in e ach area without any mention of passing or failing.The debate over whether formal grades should be given to kids has long existed.At one level,the advantages and disadva ntages are obvious.A grade system provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing a t school--and how he or she is getting on compared to other children.But as writer Sue Ferguson notes,Grades can deceive. ()The aim should be”to measure learning,not simply what a student can remember on a test.”The two aren’t the same-and if you doubt that as an adult,ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-s chool-level examinations.If you’re old enough,You’ve lived through this debate before.At one time,it was considered unfair to put children in dire ct competition with one another if it could be avoided.The intention behind that may have been good,but it ignored the fact t hat competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition.32.Which of the following seems to be weak on the daughter’s kindergarten report card?A.Reading.B.V ocabulary.C.Enthusiasm.D.Numbers.33.what did the teachers try to do when preparing the report card?A.Avoid using negative words.B.Describe the facts as they really were.e numbers instead of words.D.Avoid showing weak areas.34.What does the writer suggest by the underlined part in Paragraph 2?A.Most adults can pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.B.There’s no doubt that most high-school-level examinations measure learning.C.As an adult,you should not doubt your ability to pass high-school-level examinations.D.It’s difficult for most adults to pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.35.Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with?A.Schools should not give formal grades to kids.B.Schools should give formal grades to kids.C.Giving formal grades to kids has no disadvantages at a11.D.It’s unfair to put children in direct competition with one another.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。
