APoetry, one of the essential art forms of literature（文学），is a brief and easy way to express our feelings. Moreover, everyone understands it in their own way. Some find relief in poems; some read them simply for peace; some read poems for simple artistic pleasure.There are some special features of poetry, which make it quite different from other forms of literature. First of all, poems have rhythmic patterns. Generally most parts of a poem follow the same form of rhythm. Poems may have rhyme, but they don't have to. The lines are neatly arranged together so that they express a particular feeling or emotion.There can be various types of poems but according to the pattern or the form, there are mainly three types:匕丫1记5（抒情诗）:The lyric mainly concentrates on human thoughts and emotions rather than a story. Lyrics always bear song-like appeal. These are mainly short poems. Popular lyric poem forms are the elegy, the ode and the sonnet. William Shakespeare, Edmund Waller and Keats are some of the greatest lyric writers of all times.Narrative poems（叙事诗）：This type of poetry tells a story. Narrative poems are usually long poems. Epics（史诗）and ballads fall under this type. Some of the greatest epic poets are John Milton, Dante, Edgar Allan Poe, Alexander Pope, William Shakespeare, etc.Dramatic poems（戏剧诗）：Any drama that is written in verse is a dramatic poem. These poems generally tell a story. Black verse, dramatic monologue（独白）and closet drama belong to this type. William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson are some of the greatest dramatic poets.Whatever the form is, one thing, which cannot be denied, is that poetry is one of the most powerful tools to express our feelings.1.What do we know about lyrics?①They are similar to songs.②They usually tell stories.③They are not very long.④The sonnet is a type of lyrics.A.①②③B.②③④C.①②④D.①③④2.We can know from the text that.A.poems are weak in showing feelingsB.some poets write more than one type of poem 普宁一中2019-2020学年度高二第二学期第一次月考英语试题1C.narrative poems are shorter than lyric poemsD.the sonnet and the ballad belong to the same type3.This passage is written mainly to .A.tell us some simple facts about poetryB.teach us how to write poemsC.give some advice on reading poemsD.make us interested in poems【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。

第I卷（选择题共70分）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)ACoronaviruses (冠状病毒)Coronaviruses(冠状病毒) are a large group of viruses. They consist of a core of genetic material（遗传物质）surrounded by an envelope with protein spikes(蛋白棘突). This gives it the appearance of a crown. Crown in Latin is called “corona” and that’s how these viruses get their name.In this text, we’ll take a quick look at what’s currently known about the virus.Covid-2019The 2019 Novel Coronavirus was first reported December in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province, has quickly spread across the country and around the world. It initially occurred in a group of people with pneumonia(肺炎) who’d been associated with a seafood and live animal market in the city of Wuhan. Intermediate hosts: The 2019-nCoV may originate in bats, a team led by renowned Chinese virologist Shi Zhengli said earlier, while the intermediary host remains unknown.Incubation period(潜伏期): 1-14 days.Infection:Virus may spread before symptoms show.SARS-CoVThe Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) coronavirus was first identified in China in 2003 . Intermediate hosts: Bats are the original host. Civet cats and cats serve as an important intermediary that carries virus from the winged mammal to humans.Incubation period: 2-7 days.Infection: Virus spread after symptoms show.MERS-CoVThe Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS中东呼吸综合征) coronavirus that was first identified in Saudi Arabia(沙特阿拉伯) in 2012.Intermediate hosts: Bats are the original host. MERS-CoV was travelled from dromedary camel to humans.Incubation period: 2-14 days.Infection: Virus may spread before symptoms show.1. What is the intermediate hosts of the Covid-2019?A. Bats.B. Civet cats.C. Camel.D.Unknown yet2. Which kinds of coronaviruses may spread before symptoms show?A. The Covid-2019B. SARS-CoVC. The Covid-2019 and MERS-CoVD. MERS-CoV3. What is the following statement is not true about coronaviruses ?A.The Covid-2019, SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV are all included in coronaviruses.B.The animal reservoir of the Covid-2019 is bats.C.A mysterious pneumonia outbreak was first identified in China.D.But in both SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV cases, bats are the original host.BMary Wilkins Ellis was a volunteer pilot for Britain's Air Transport Auxiliary( ATA) during World War II.Mary Wilkins was born on Feb.2, 1917. When she was 8, her father bought her a ride in a plane. From there, she was hooked. As a teenager, she persuaded her father to pay for flying lessons, and she earned her pilot's license at 22 in 1939.In 1940，she heard an ad for volunteer pilots to help the war effort. She signed up and joined the ATA, whose task was to deliver planes from factory to base or from base to factory for repairs.At the height of World War II, 26-year-old Mary Wilkins climbed down a ladder from the cockpit (驾驶舱) of a bomber(轰炸机) at a Royal Air Force base in England.“Where's the pilot?" someone on the ground asked.“I am the pilot!" she responded. She had delivered the bomber alone—although built for a five-man crew—from its factory. People on the ground looked at her in surprise. One of them even decided to climb up the ladder to check the plane for the “missing” pilot.She was one of the “Atagirls", as they were nicknamed, who almost always flew without other crew members, compass or radio assistance. They guided themselves by using maps and following rives or railway lines. While they did not fly in combat(战斗), they faced the daily danger of attack by enemy planes. Mrs. Ellis was once shot at over Bournemouth, in southern England, by “friendly fire” from t he ground. Another time, she had a near-miss when landing in thick fog at the same time a combat Spitfire landed on the same runway from the opposite direction. That experience won her the nickname “the fog flyer" .In all, Mrs. Ellis flew more than 1,000 warplanes of 76 types—including 400 Spitfires—among more than 200 British airfields from 1942 to the end of the war in 1945.4. What does the underlined word “hooked” mean in the second paragraph?A. Touched.B. Addicted.C. Annoyed.D. Confused.5. Where did Mary Wilkins probably learn the ad for volunteer pilots?A. In a newspaper.B. In a magazine.C. On a poster.D. On the radio.6. Why did one person on the ground climb up the ladder?A. He didn't believe women could fly these planes.B. He was interested in what a bomber looked like.C. He couldn't wait to experience a ride in a bomber.D. He wanted to check if the plane was in good condition.7. What do we learn about “Atagirls”?A. They often flew in combat.B. They were often shot at by enemy.C. They often flew on their own.D. They guided themselves by radio when flying.C"What kind of rubbish are you?" This question might normally cause anger, but in Shanghai it has become a special "greeting" among people over the past week. On July 1st, the city introduced stricttrash-sorting regulations（条例)that are required to follow and expected to be used as a model for our country. Residents must divide their waste into four separate categories and toss （投放）it into specific public dustbins. They must do so at specified times, when monitors are present to ensure correct trash-tossing and to ask the nature of one's rubbish. Individuals who fail to follow the regulations face the possibility of fines and worse. They could be punished with fines of up to 200 yuan （$ 29）. For those who repeat to go against them, the government can add black marks to their credit records, making it harder for them to get bank loans or even buy train tickets.Shanghai government is responding to an obvious environmental problem. It generates 9 million tons of garbage a year, more than London's annual output, which is rising quickly. But like other cities in China, it lacks a recycling system. Instead, it has relied on trash pickers to sift（筛选）through the waste, picking out whatever can be reused. This has limits. As people get wealthier, fewer of them want to do such dirty work. The waste, meanwhile, just keeps piling up.Many residents appear to support the idea of recycling in general but are annoyed by the details. Rubbish must be divided according to whether it is food, recyclable, dry or harmful, the distinctions among which can be confusing, though there are apps to help work it out. Some have complained about the rules concerning food waste. They must put it straight in the required public bins, forcing them to tear open plastic bags and toss it by hand. What they complain most is the short periods for dropping trash, typically a couple of hours, morning and evening. Along with the monitors at the bins, this means that people go at around the same time and can keep an eye on what is being thrown out；no one wants to look bad.8.What do we know about the trash-sorting regulations in Shanghai?A. They are the first of their kind.B. They are tied to one's bank account.C. They have the highest fines.D. They're aided by monitors.9.Why has Shanghai introduced the trash-sorting regulations?A. T here are fewer and fewer trash pickers.B. I t aims to build a new recycling system.C. I t faces more and more serious garbage problems.D. P eople throw the rubbish here and there.10.What makes the residents upset most about the regulations?A. L imited time for tossing the trash.B. C onfusing distinction among the categories of trash.C. B eing fined due to improper behavior.D. B eing watched by monitors when throwing the garbage.11.What can be the best title for the text?A. A Good Way of Trash-sortingB. A New Era of Garbage ClassificationC. A Great Time in Dealing with LitterD. A n Effective Solution to Rubbish ProblemDFrom talking robots to driverless vehicles, technology has become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And yet—we still have no cure for the common cold.Why can't we stop the common cold? According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh Napier University, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold viruses that belong to the rhinoviruses(鼻病毒). There are at least 160 types. They mutate(突变) so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs, or learn to hide from our immune systems. In other words, a single cure isn't likely to work on every type of cold.However, researchers from Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco, have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein(蛋白质) that the viruses need. All the viruses were unable to replicate(复制) inside cells without a gene that produces a specific protein called SETD3.To identify the gene which produces the specific protein, researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes in the human genome (基因组). Namely, they randomly disabled a single gene in each of the cells, so that the cells lacked one or another of every gene in our genome. These genetically modified cells were then exposed to the rhinoviruses, which cause the common cold. The team then looked at which gene was missing in cells that continued to grow. As it turned out. the one that stood out was SETD3, which makes a protein of the same name.Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can temporarily disable the protein, instead of producing genetically modified humans. “We have identified a fantastic target that all rhinoviruses require and depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no chance," said Carette.12. Which does Peter Barlow think is a problem for fighting the common cold?A. The poor immunity of patients.B. The large variety of viruses.C. The lack of enough cures.D. The side effects of drugs.13. What do we know about the gene- editing study in Paragraph 4?A. All genetically modified cells survivedB. Some genes in our genome were ignoredC. It located the gene responsible for SETD3D. It exposed the harm of the rhinoviruses.14. How should we stay away from the common cold according to Carette?A. Apply gene-editing to human genesB. Avoid contacts with colds patientsC. Prevent cold viruses from mutatingD. Develop a drug to switch off SETD315. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Potential defense found for cold virusesB. Secrets behind the human genesC. Real causes of the common coldD. Puzzles over rhinoviruses solved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。

ABikes are popular in the Netherlands.In fact,nearly half of all travel in the Netherlands is by bike.Now,one Dutch bik e designer,Thomas,has taken the country’s interest in bikes by making a school bus bike.The big bike has eight sets of pedals（踏板） for kids,a driver seat for an adult,and three other seats,comfortably letting little kids for their trip to and from school.The bike even has a motor,which can help with high hills or at times when few kids on it.So far,Thomas tells Fast Company,he’s sold 25 school-bikes,at a price of $25,000 each—less than it would cost to buy a traditional school bus with the same number of seats.Along with the traditional color,the bikes are colored yellow so that they can be seen easily.Thomas says he’s sold school bus bikes to neighboring countries such as Belgium,England and Germany,but so far,the school bus bike hasn’t been sold in the United States.If the US agrees to buy this kind of school bus bike,it could do a lot of good to improve exercise for a young age and help them keep healthy.1.How do people in the Netherlands usually go to work?A.By car.B.By bus.C.By bike.D.On foot.2.The school buses are yellow in the Netherlands because ______.A.the color yellow is easy to paintB.yellow buses can be seen easilyC.yellow is the national color of the NetherlandsD.it's the designer's favorite color3.Which country of the followin g hasn’t bought a school bus bike?A.America.B.Germany.C.England.D.Belgium.4.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Thomas made a new kind of school bus.B.A school bus usually costs $25,000.C.Thomas sold bikes to Asian countries.D.Riding school bus bikes helps keep kids healthy.BStephen Hawking was born in Oxford,England on 8th January,1942.He went to school in St Al bans—a small city near London. Although he did well,he was never top of his class. After leaving school,Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics,then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙学).As he himself admitted he wasn't very serious about studying. He was a very lazy student,and did very little work. However,he still achieved extremely good marks （分数）.Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him at the age of 20.He started to bump into（碰撞） things,and often fell over for no reason. When he visited his family at Christmas time,his father was so worried that he was sent to hospital for test. Finally,the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone disease(运动神经元病),an incurable（无法治愈的） illness which causes the muscles of the body to waste away. Doctors said he would die before he was 23.At first,Hawking became extremely depressed (忧郁的).After a while,though,he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote,“Before my illness had been diagnosed (诊断),there had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortlyafter I came out of hospital,I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.” Hawking married,found a job at Cambridge University,where he still works today,and had three children. He also went to do some of the most important scientific research ever carried out.His story shows that nobody,however bad their situation is,should lose hope,“Life is not fair（公平的）,” he once said.“You just have to do the best you can in the situation you are in.”5.As a university student,Stephen Hawking ________.A.worked extremely hardB.studied moths and chemistryC.was lazy and did very little workD.only achieved average marks6.Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him when ________.A.he visited his family at Christmas time one yearB.he was 20C.his father made him see a doctorD.he was sent to hospital for test7.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.Hawking's education.B.Hawking's reaction(反映) to being seriously ill.C.Hawking's views on life.D.Diagnosis of Hawking's motor neurone disease.8.Hawking believes that ________.A.you should always do your best however bad your situation isB.life is fairC.nobody's life is as bad as hisD.it's OK to lose hopeCRecently, my husband and three kids were playing in the Mediterranean (地中海), swimming and floating in the picture-perfect sea. It was ridiculously beautiful in Majorca, Spain. The way the sun danced across the water and how the blue horizon was dotted（点缀） with storybook sailboats(帆船) were such beautiful scenes. I almost couldn't believe my eyes.My husband and I always dreamed about taking our kids on a trip around the world. It was something we always wanted to do“one day". It was one of the things we talked in detail（详细地） about, when we imagined our life with the children we hoped we would have.Fourteen years later, we had three boys who were growing up faster by the day. It was time to make good on(兑现,实现) those plans.We spent dozens of hours discussing, researching and planning.We had to learn how to “road school” our kids and arrange（安排） time off from work. We renewed our passports（护照）, and then packed our bags.We showed our kids the world. It was about experiencing the dozens of flights and trains and taxis together. We showed them how wonderful, how diverse（多样的）, and how fascinating the world is. We wanted them to learn all that we had learned ourselves, through our own travels as young adults.But there was something more than that: What we really wanted is to slow down time. We wanted the days to last a bit longer, and the weeks to take their time. The years with our children are going too fast. We wanted to put the brakes (刹车) on our busy lives for a year, and just be with our kids. We wanted a break from the daily morning routine（安排） of making lunches, eating breakfast and rushing out the door in time for school. We needed a family time-out (休息时间).It was a wonderful two months in Europe, full of incredible（难以置信的） moments. And when we look back at our lives, I know we'll be glad we did it. I know we'll be happy that this is a chapter of the story of our family.9.What was the author's attitude toward the trip when planning it?A.Calm.B.Expectant（期待的）.C.Stressed.D.Worried.10.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 7 refer to?A.Preparing for the vacation.B.Having fun in the picture-perfect Mediterranean.C.Experiencing a different and beautiful world.D.Learning to study during trips as young adults.11.What was the main purpose of the author taking this trip?A.To allow her children to see the world.B.To teach her kids to value life.C.To teach her kids what they can't learn in school.D.To enjoy a family break away from their usual busy life.12.How did the author feel after her two months in Europe?A.Exhausted（精疲力尽的）.B.Satisfied.C.Disappointed.D.ProudDWhether they're playing on our TV screens or printed in newspapers, adverts （广告） are everywhere.In fact, according to US market research company Yankelovich, the average person living in a city sees thousands of ads every single day.However, ads don't just act as a tool for getting people to buy things; they also serve as a window into cultures, societies and history.Modern adverts began to appear in the 18th and 19th centuries, since advances in printing techniques allowed more detailed images to be produced in newspapers and magazines. Looking at some of these early ads is like taking a step back in time to another world.For example, an 1881 advert for French cigarettes promised that its product would “give immediate relief” to a list of medical conditions, including breathing problems. And a US ad from a 1955 newspaper advised mothers to mix the sugary soft drink A7 Up with their baby's milk.These days, of course, the harmful effectsof both smoking and sugary drinks are well known. But although these adverts seem unusual to us now, perhaps future generations may consider some of today's ads to be just as bizarre.“Advertising often serves as an indicator（指示） for what society considers to be socially acceptable and desirable at the time,” US marketing expert（专家） wrote on the Ad Council's website.In spite of being designed to sell or advertise something, some ads can even become part of a society's vernacular (方言).In the UK, for example, a slogan(标语) created in 1994 to advertise paint is used in everyday conversation by many Britons（英国人）. The phrase, “It does exact ly what it says on the tin", is used to describe an item or product that's open, straightforward and simple. Meanwhile, also in the UK, if someone describes themselves as a “Marmite person”, this means that you may either love them or hate them, based on t he British food Marmite's slogan, “Love it or hate it.”So, in spite of what we may think of them, it seems that ads are a bigger part of everyday life than we think they are.Instead of finding them annoying, however, at least we can be assured that future generations will have an interesting way to see how we lived - no matter how unusual today's world may seem to them.13.What does the underlined word“bizarre” in Paragraph 9 probably mean?A.Typical.B.Creative.C.Strange.D.Misleading（误导的）.14.The examples of the two British phrases are mentioned mainly to ____.A.prove most ads in the past were simpleB.show ads can influence everyday languageC.explain why some ads are very popularD.show that British people love to use words from ads15.What's the article mainly about?A.The history of modern adverts.B.The changing roles of ads.C.How ads reflect history and societies.D.Ads that have influenced our lives.II.阅读七选五（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。

2019—2020学年度高二英语下学期月考试题(含答案)

2019～2020学年度高二英语下学期月考试题第一部分阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题，每题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从所给的四个选项（A,B,C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

AAre you afraid of moving up to senior high school? It is a completely new experience, but you shouldn’t worry. We’ve got a guide to help you.You’re not alone.Remember that everybody else in your year is in the same boat. You may not notice it, but they’re just as nervous as you are.Moving to senior high school is a chance, not a problem. Things are different, and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.The teachers will help.If you don’t know what to do or are worried about something, then ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to, because they have experience in helping new students. Pay attention to what your teachers say.Everything changes.There are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized.Other points.Make sure you know which rooms your classes are in and which days you have your different subjects on.If you’ve got an older brother or sister at the school, then ask them for advice. Be yourself! It sounds simple, but things will become better if you just act naturally.Having early nights makes a difference. You’ll also find it easier to get up in the morning!21. The author says that you’re not alone, because other students ______.A. are polite and friendlyB. will help you if possibleC. feel the same as you doD. will learn the new rules with you22. What does the writer think of moving up to senior high school?A. It is a difficult problem.B. It’s a good chance.C. It sounds simple.D. It’s worrying.23. Which of the following does the writer suggest you do?A. Just act naturally.B. Don’t be shy.C. Change yourself.D. Pay attention to others.24. The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A. tell students about a new experienceB. help students that are going to senior high schoolC. tell students how to make full use of timeD. teach students how to organize themselvesBAccording to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not help them build self-confidence(自信).Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children’s self-confidence —the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. "Teachers should not say things like ‘good job’ or ‘nice work’ whenever a child does anything. They should encourage them to continue to improve," some researchers advise.Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, "High self-confidence brought in by too much praise does not make children happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child’s advantages and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can." Praise also loses its effect if it is given equally to all students."It’s important to tell children the truth about what they’ve done. Honest feedback(反馈) is far better than empty praise," Duke adds. "People have got into the habit of not telling children when they’re wrong. That makes it hard for them to deal with difficultie s when they grow up. That’s just how the world is."25. According to some researchers, if parents praise their children too much, their children will ______.A. always look for praiseB. increase self-confidenceC. become strongD. do better in their studies26. In order to help children build self-confidence, some researchers advise parents to ______.A. make them live more happilyB. let them do more difficult workC. help them do better in schoolD. encourage them to improve27. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?A. Praise makes children become successful.B. Children don’t know what they’re really good at.C. The same praise for all children has no meaning.D. Duke thinks praise is more important than fin ding children’s strengths.28. The underlined word "it" in the third paragraph refers to _________.A. the effectB. the praiseC. the advantageD.the confidenceCHi! Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you knew was in trouble — and was he? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP(超感觉知觉).ESP stands for Extrasensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.Here's an example. A woman was ironing clothes. Suddenly she screamed, "My father isdead! I saw him sitting in the chair!" Just then, a telegram came. The woman's father died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.There are thousands of stories like this one on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what's behind these strange mental messages. Here's another example—one of hundreds of dreams that have come true.A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, "There's room for one more." The man felt the driver seemed dead, so he ran away. The next day, when the ma n was getting on a crowded bus, the bus driver said, "There's room for one more."Then the man saw that the driver's face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn't get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!Some people say stories like these are coincidences(巧合). Others, including some scientists, say that ESP is real. From studies of ESP, we may someday learn more about the human mind.29．According to the passage, the writer believes that the sixth sense is ________. A. in existence B. imaginative C. not real D. impossible30．ESP lets people know _________.A. about events before they happenB. about events after they happenC. about events that are happening some distance awayD. A and C31．By studying ESP, scientists may get to ________.A. learn how people tell liesB. know more about human dreamsC. know more about human mindD. learn how strange things happenDIt is interesting that the arrival of snow has the effect on people in different countries. For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a disaster or even a wonder.But there are countries between these two kinds that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfalls, however trains and buses have to stop in the middle of the way. Telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. And almost within hours there are also certain shortages — bread, vegetables and other things — not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go out and store up with food and so on —“just for fear that something bad should happen”.But why does snow have this effect? It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow-ploughs(犁雪车) and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow-ploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education, helping the old and so on.32. According to the writer, Britain is a country .A. which has regular snowB. which is not well prepared for snowC. for which snow is a disasterD. for which snow is a wonder33. After a few hours’ snow there is often some shortage of food because .A. shops have closed downB. people buy as much as they canC. farmers cannot produce any moreD. people eat more vegetables in winter34. The first reason why the British do not buy snow-ploughs is that .A. spreading salt is good enoughB. old people need more moneyC. snow-ploughs are not used oftenD. the hospital is more important35.The underlined words “two kinds” mean the countries .A. which have snow either as yearly happening to celebrate or as rare weatherB. which either have heavy snow or light snowC. to which snow either causes problems or no problemsD. which either have snow-ploughs or no snow-ploughs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。

On one of my trips to India, I saw children drinking water from the roadside. I was troubled to learn that millions of people, most of them children in developing countries, die each year because of water related diseases.Living in the US, I am lucky to be able to turn on the tap and get potable water(饮用水), while one sixth of the world's population lacks access to clean water This year, I entered the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge.

For the last challenge, each of us had to present the invention we had been working on over thesummer. The first pla ce winner would win $25,000, a trip to Costa Rica, and the title of America’ s Top Young Scientist. At the awards ceremony, all of us waited anxiously until one of the judges, Danny Forester opened the paper and started announcing "The winner of the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge is.... “ You could hear a pin(大头针) drop as he opened the paper with the winner’ s name, “Deepika Kurup!”As America’s Top Young Scientist, I was given an opportunity to show my invention on national television and deliver several presentations.

It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason. ＂This used to be the center of town,＂ he said. ＂Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.＂Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.4. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A. It made room for new equipment.B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.C. It was done with the help of the audience.D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.5. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A. It was an all-time classic.B. It was about the history of the town.C. The audience requested it.D. The theater owner found it suitable.6. What will probably happen to the building?A. It will be repaired.B. It will be turned into a museum.C. It will be knocked down.D. It will be sold to the city government.7. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to part with the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are eager to have a shopping center.CSpring is a wonderful season to celebrate rebirth and new life. The long，cold winter is over. The weather is warmer and sunnier. The trees again have leaves and the flowers are blooming. The season represents hope，joy and beauty. At this time，many people think of this classical music piece—Spring，which shows happiness. Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi wrote it in the seventeen hundreds.However，not all songs about spring are happy. This song written and sung by K．D. Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places. She recorded I Dream of Spring in 2008.Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote It Might as Well Be Spring for the movie State Fair in 1945.Frank Sinatra sings it.

Apple says its facial recognition is even secure enough to allow payments through its Apple Pay service.21. What is the special function of Google Clips?A. It can play videos by itself.B. It can take pictures automaticallyC. .It can change photos into videos.D. It can provide music and effects.22. Which of the following can now be bought on the Internet?A. Google ClipsB. GoPro HeroC. Snap SpectaclesD. Apple iPhone X23. How is Apple iPhone X unlocked?A. By facial recognition.B. By a fingerprint.C. By pushing a button.D. By making a map.BIt is generally accepted these days that reading a book will help you relieve stress. And it may actually make you a more thoughtful person as you learn to connect with the various characters. But there’s more. A new study discovered that reading more than 3.5 hours per week actually increased a person’s lifespan（寿命）by 23 percent — about 12 years for the people involved in the study.The study was led by a group of researchers at Yale University. It looked at 3,635 people, both men and women but all older than 50. The researchers divided them into three categories: those who didn’t read books; those who read up to 3.5 hours a week; those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.After the researchers adjusted for factors like education, health and income, the data showed that, on average, those who read about 3.5 hours a week were 17 percent less likely to die.In addition, the study examined people who read newspapers and magazines and found that they were 11 percent less likely to die than non-readers, but only if theyspent more than seven hours reading each week. That may be due to the different forms of these items. When people read newspapers or magazines, they tend to skim the material rather than read it fully. Avni Bavishi, the study’s leader, said, “We believe people need to know, learn and understand more things when they are reading books, because they’re longer and there are more cha racters, more plots to follow, and more connections to make.”From all of this, the authors concluded that, as with a healthy diet and exercise, books appear to promote a “significant survival advantage.”Clearly, there is a need for more study. We’re certain that book lovers all around the world will be glad to provide the data needed to make further conclusions.24. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. A few people think that reading can help them relax.B. Reading can make a person more sensitive.C. Reading can help a person to live a longer life.D. Most people think that reading can help them to live a better life.25. What can we learn about the people in the study from the text?A. All of them were older than fifty.B. Most of them were women readers.C. More than half of them were college students.D. They were divided into four groups by the researchers.26. Generally speaking, those who read newspapers and magazines ______ than those who readbooks.A. live longerB. are more likely to be positiveC. have a better ability to understandD. get fewer benefits in terms of the lifespanCDid you know that the Navy trained dolphins to find mines(地雷) which often blow up? Apparently, it was a cost-effective method; now, the Navy are preparing to replacethe dolphins with robots, not because they were doing a bad job or because they want to do a more human job, but because, guess what? Robots are more cost effective. Not particularly known for being humans, they’re also not planning to release or retire the dolphins, but they’re considering what other jobs they could be assigned to — probably some just as dangerous.“Everyone is familiar with security patrol dogs. You m ay even know that because of their exceptionally keen sense of smell, dogs like beagles are also used to detect (发现)drugs and bombs, or land mines. But a dog would not be effective in finding a sea mine,” reads the Navy’s site. “But just as the dog’s keen sense of smell makes it ideal for detecting land mines, the U.S. Navy has found that the biological sonar(声呐) of dolphins, called echolocation, makes them uniquely effective at locating sea mines so they can be avoided or removed.”The Navy will now equip underwater robots which will do the same job at a bigger distance, without needing constant rest and manned monitor. I, for one, hope the dolphins will be given a break and assigned to a safer task.27. Why will robots take the place of dolphins to find mines?A. Because dolphins do very bad jobs.B. Because dolphins are endangered animals.C. Because scientists want to be friendly to dolphins.D. Because using robots is cheaper.28. Dogs can be used to detect drugs due to ______.A. excellent sense of smellB. higher IQ compared with dolphinsC. echolocationD. biological sonar29. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to ______.A. security patrol dogsB. dolphinsC. sea minesD. the US Navy30.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Robots are going to take the place of dolphins to find mines.B. Dolphins are good at finding mines.C. Robots are welcome by humans because of their efficiency.D. Compared to security patrol dogs, dolphins do well in finding sea mines.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。

AHow to become a conservation officer: Jade's storyPart1 : J ade’s storyHi, I'm Jade. I'm 20 years old and I'm an apprentice conservation officer. Conservation is protecting the natural environment and trying to make it thrive and flourish as much as possible. My job really is to try and get as many people engaged in nature as possible and doing an apprenticeship like this, which is so diverse, really means that I can try every different area of this job out and see which fits me the best. And it means that I also get paid at the same time. I've always been a massive animal lover. I love being so close to them and observing the behaviours and I love the enthusiasm.This job has helped me vastly from day-to-day stress and anxiety, to just general happiness, I'm in such a better place because of it. I'm working with so many amazing supportive people and I really couldn’t be happier right now!Part 2: What to expect if you want to be a conservation officerWhen Jade finishes her apprenticeship, she will be a conservation officer. A role similar to Jade's is a countryside officer.●Countryside officer salary: ￡18,000 to ￡50,000 per year●Countryside officer working hours: 39 to 41 hours per week●Typical entry requirements: To do an advanced apprenticeship in environmentalconservation like Jade’s, you'll usually need 5 General Certificates of Secondary Education or equivalent at grades 9 to 4 (A* to C), including English and Maths.Paid or unpaid work experience can be very useful when applying for jobs.Organisations like the Conservation Volunteers, the National Trust and the WildlifeTrusts offer training for volunteers.1.In what ways does the job help Jade?A.By providing her with one-on-one training.B.By improving her confidence in protecting nature.C.By helping her relieve the pressure and stress.D.By training her in finding different types of jobs.2.Why does the text mention the countryside officer salary?A.Because it can attach importance to the job.B.Because it can call on people to apply for the job.C.Because it can show the popularity of the job.D.Because it can remind people to protect nature.3.How can you become a conservation officer?A.Grade 9 to 4 (A* to C) in English or Maths.B.Have paid or unpaid work experience.C.Get 5 General Certificates of Secondary Education.D.Volunteer in organisations like the Wildlife Trusts.BIt's 1944, in occupied Paris. Four friends spend their days in an arrow room atop a Left Bank apartment building. The neighbors think they’re painters- a cover story to explain the chemical smell. In fact, the friends are members of a Jewish resistance cell. They’re operating a secret laboratory to make false passports for children and families about to be deported to concentration camps (集中营). The youngest member of the group, the lab’s technical director, is practically a child himself. Adolfo Kaminsky, age 18.In the summer of 1943, he and his family were arrested and sent to Drancy, the internment camp for Jews near Paris that was the last stop before the death camps. This time, their passports saved them. Argentina's government protested the family's detention, so they stayed at Drancy for three months, while thousands of others were swiftly sent on to die. The Kaminskys were eventually freed, but they weren't safe in Paris, where Jews were under constant threat of arrest.To survive they would have to go underground. Kaminsky's father arranged to get false papers from a Jewish resistance group, and sent Kaminsky to pick them up. Whenthe agent told Kaminsky that they were struggling to erase a certain blue ink from the documents, he advised using lactic acid, a trick he'd learned at the dairy. It worked, and he was invited to join the resistance. Kaminsky's cell was one of many. Historians estimated that France's Jewish resistance networks together saved 7,000 to 10,000 children.Kaminsky never took a penny form forging. He thought the money would ruin his belief. He made a living by taking some commercial photos. To this day, 94-year-old Kaminsky feels guilty he survived the Holocaust, in despite of the fact that his remarkable work as a forger during World War II saved the lives of thousands of Jews. "I saved lives because I can’t deal with unnecessary deaths- I just can’t. All humans are equal, whatever their origins, their beliefs, their skin color."4.What is the main duty of the Jewish resistance cell?A.To provide an apartment building for painters .B.To protect Jewish people from being killed.C.To make fake identities for all families.D.To train students to operate laboratories.5.What happened to Kaminsky in 1943?A. He was sent to a concentration camp.B. He moved to live in Argentina.C. He was swiftly sent on to die.D. He protested his family's detention6.Which of the following words can best describe Kaminsky ?A. Enthusiastic and gentle.B. Expressive and humble.C. Disciplined and modest.D. Courageous and helpful.7.What does the story intend to tell us?A.Don’t raise the white flag quite yet.B.You want to get rough, we can get rough.C.There is always a bit of light even in the darkness.D.No-one hits the bull’s-eye with the first arrow.COn January 27th, in order to win the new pneumonia Resistance Wa（r 抗击新型肺炎战），the Ministry of Education issued a notice on putting off the start time of school in spring 2020. It was said that school should not start before February 17th. The exact start time of school will depend on situations and further notices.However, many parents are very worried that putting off the start of school may affect children’s studies. It they have such a long winter vacation, children will not learn any knowledge, read books or study at all. They may forget what they have learnt before. Staying at home for a long time will make them keep eating, sleeping and playing, which seriously affect their physical and mental health.In short, the close of school influences learning and develops bad habits, so how should we avoid these problems? Local education departments have also issued a notice, that is, to organize online teaching and create a network platform, where necessary courses will be shown every day, and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject, and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.It should be said that such a method is very good. It can not only keep students indoors and not worry about the infection of the disease, but also make them study at home, improve their learning ability, and truly achieve “no suspension of classes”. Both the platform itself and the recorded lesson resources are more useful, and are welcomed by parents and teachers.Of course, except for learning at home, it is also necessary to teach children about health knowledge, especially how to keep away from touching virus; at the same time, it is also necessary for children to do some physical exercises or some games, which is good for physical health at home.8.Parents worried about putting off the start time of school because .A.children may be infected by virusB.they don’t like the idea of online learningC.children’s study may be affectedD.parents have no time to look after children9.Except for learning at home, what is also necessary according to the writer?A.To keep playing online games.B.To keep touching different people.C.To do some physical exercise outside.D.To teach children about health knowledge.10.The underlined word “suspension” in Paragraph 4 probably means .A.planB. stopC. growthD. change11.What’s the best title for this passage?A.ASpecial Way to Learn at HomeB.ANew War with a New ChangeC.AWay to Keep Mentally HealthyD.AMethod to Make Parents UnworriedDMoney might not grow on trees, but it seems that furniture does! Gavin Munro, a UK-based designer, has come up with a brilliant alternative to cutting beautiful trees and converting them into furniture.He first came up with the idea of growing furniture when he was working as a gardener in California and also made furniture with washed-up driftwood on the side. After several attempts, he finally managed to develop a model chair using four trees. Munro is now tending to a small 2.5 acre “furniture forest” of 400 trees in a field north of Derby, England. He uses specially designed plastic frames to make young oak and ash trees into the shapes of chairs, tables, frames, or lamps.A forest that grows furniture sounds like a setting right out of Alice in Wonderland, but there’s nothing magical about it, just a lot of hard work. The forest consists of rows upon rows of trees covered in blue plastic molds, converting them into furniture as they grow. Once they take the desired shape, they are cared for until thick, mature and ready for harvest.After harvesting, each piece is planned( 刨平) and finished to show off the wood grain inside. “It’s an art form in itself, keeping track of everything,” Munro said.The entire process takes about four to eight years, resulting in fully functional, organic, eco-friendly furniture, and more long-lasting than anything else on the market. They are grown and grafted(嫁接) into one solid piece without any joints that loosen over time. As Munro puts it, “These pieces of furniture could last for centuries.”Quality isn’t an issue with forest-grown furniture, but maintenance and scalability(可伸缩性) certainly are. For now, Munro expects to grow 50 pieces a year, with the first lot of chairs available for purchase in mid-2017, priced at $3,700 each.12.The first paragraph mainly serves as .A. commentB. praiseC. introductionD. background13.Gavin Munro thought of growing furniture .A. while serving as a gardenerB. while relaxing at homeC. w hile studying in CaliforniaD. when he grow up14.What plays a key role in growing furniture?A. Rich imagination.B. Perfect d esign.C. Large irrigation.D. Hard work.15.The passage is probably taken from .A. an essayB. a reportC. a novelD. a diary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。
