高二英语下学期期末试卷（带答案）

高二英语下学期期末试卷（带答案）第一部分听力（略）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AI clearly remember my mom telling me to drink milk every day—one glass in the morning and another at night．I also remember loving it while my sister thought quite the opposite—she would surreptitiously pour her milk into the sink or water the plants with it! I guess I should thank my mom for making us drink a lot of milk, so rich in calcium（钙）, during those important years．Today, calcium shortage is one of the main concerns of women in their 30s or even early 20s．The great fear is that when we reach our 50s or 60s, osteoprosis（骨质疏松症）will set in．That is why you can see a lot of advertisements for products supposedly containing a lot of calcium．Because calcium is not that easy to acquire from the food we normally eat, busy women these days should take calcium supplements（补充物）．There are a lot of different forms of these---calcium carbonate（碳酸钙），oyster（牡蛎）shell or bone-meal-based calcium supplements．You have to be careful when choosing which kind to take．This is because calcium is not easily absorbed by the body．So the fact that you are taking supplements doesn’t mean that the body is actually benefiting from them．Different supplements may have different instructions on dosage（剂量）and manner of intake．You can ask your doctor to help you determine which supplement is the best for your needs．21. From what the author’s mother did we may inferthat___________________．A．her children had osteoporosisB．she knew her children would benefit from milkC．she must have suffered from osteoprosisD．she didn’t like her daughter who didn’t obey her order22. Based on the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A．The author’s sister will suffer from osteoprosis when reaches her 50s or 60sB．Many businessmen have already been selling products supposedly containing calcium．C．We can’t get enough calcium only from food we eat every day D．Women as young as their 20s should be concerned about calcium shortage23. What does the underlined word “surreptitiously”in the firstparagraph probably mean?A．Honestly B．Frankly C．Secretly D．Curiously24. We may infer from the last paragraphthat____________________．A．what one chooses as a calcium supplement might not workB．one shouldn’t take in calcium without the permission of a doctor C．the more calcium supplements one uses, the more calcium one can take inD．it is dangerous to use calcium supplements without the guidanceBPeople living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in the country each year. Choices made about where to go, how to get there and what to do can either benefit or harm the environment.While on holidayMany of the things you can do to the greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but there are also some extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals. Here are some suggestions:●Making the most of locally produced fo od and drink, and local activities and attractions will support people in the area you arevisiting and reduce the need for further environmental influence from transport.●Switching off any air conditioning, heating and lights will help reduce climate change effect.●Save water—some countries suffer from water shortages and saving water can help avoid damage to our natural habitats. Endangered speciesSome gifts and foods available in some countries can be made from endangered plants or animals. Check before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid any illegal trade hotspots can be found on the Souvenir Alert webpage.Making a positive contribution to the place you are visiting.There are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment.●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural habitats.●When you are away, or if you are looking for somewhere tovisit, you can support projects or attractions which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects.25. According to the passage, we can _______ to help reduce climate change effect.A. make good use of waterB. buy local food and drinkC. save electricityD. go around on foot26. We should check the gifts and foods before buying because______.A. sometimes they are of poor qualityB. they may not be typical local productsC. some of them will do harm to our healthD. they may be made from endangered animals or plants27We can infer from the passage that ______.A. it is not easy for people to travel abroadB. not everyone can tell an illegal souvenirC. green holidays have been accepted by peopleD. volunteer work is a must for protecting natural habitats28. The passage is mainly about ______.A. travel enjoymentB. the harm to the environmentC. protection of endangered animalsD. greener choices for holidayCIt’s said that professional footballers in the USA can make millions of dollars throughout their careers. Yet statistics show that many eventually run out of money once their playing days are over. The University of Pennsylvania wants to change that andhelpteach American footballers how to rebuild their lives when their sports careers come to an end.“All their life they have focused on football. Deciding what comes next can be difficult.”Says professor Morvarid Taheripour, the head of the athletes’project. “Some people say athletes die two deaths. You kind of die when you stop playing and you die in real life. So they’ve got to come back to life and figure out ‘How am I going to make a living at 25 for maybe another 40 years?”For Taheripour, the partnership with professional athletes is a dream to come true. “It was taking everythin g I love about teaching and yet being able to influence people who are accomplished and hard-working, yet very modest.”But even with help, figuring out the next chapter isn’t easy. Statistics show that 78 percent of professional football players are penniless, divorced or unemployed two years after retiring from their sport. The program tries to help players develop a plan for life after sport and 220 athletes have taken part over the past six years. Darwin Walker is one former student who avoided being a statistic. Today, he runs a number of successful businesses and thanks football for his accomplishments. “The concepts I learned about leadership have all come from playing the game of football,”says Walker. “The amount of study, amount of commitment, and timethat you have to put into it is very much like being a successful business person.”Shifting the skills learned on the field to the workplace seems natural to some, but the numbers show that’s not the case for everyone. Taheripour’s message to his stu dents is a serious one:This is the time to build for the future, he tells them, because no matter how long your athletic career lasts, you are so much more than just an athlete.29 By saying “athletes die two deaths”, the author means ________.A. athletes suffer too many failures in their lifeB. athletes have a sports life and a real lifeC. being an athlete contributes little to lifeD. athletes’later life can be easily rebuilt30. .Why is it difficult for professional athletes to decide what comes next?A. They might have not thought of this during their playing days.B. They have no idea whether to leave the game or not.C. They think as athletes they can make more money.D. They’re not willing to accept a new career.31. What does Darwin Walker manage to avoid?A. Making his sports career come to an end.B. Being unsuccessful in rebuilding his life.C. Going through the problem.D. Making a difference.32. What does the last paragraph imply?A. An athlete should think about more than his athletic career.B. An athlete’s sports career couldn’t last very long.C. An athlete should end his career earlier to build his new life.D. The longer an athlete’s career lasts, the more respect he receives.DDuring World War I, a German spy called Reginald Rowlandworked in the United Kingdom gathering information for Germany about the British army. A box of talcum powder (爽身粉) and other lotions （护肤液）with materials to write secret messages were found in his room when he was caught by British soldiers. He also used invisible (看不见的) ink on shirt collars, in pens, and mixed with cakes of soap to send secret messages.So, if you want to send secret messages, you will need:lemon,a bowl,a thin paintbrush or toothpick,white paper,a hairdryer or light bulbDirections:1. Cut the lemon in half, squeeze (挤) the juice into a bowl, and remove any pulp (果肉).2. Dip the paintbrush or toothpick into the lemon juice.3. Write your message or draw your map on the white paper, working quickly so that you can see what you have written before the lemon juice dries.4. When the juice dries, your message will not be seen. Protect it by writing a normal message in pencil on the other side.5. To reveal the secret message, hold the paper in front of a warm hairdryer or light bulb.33. According to the text, Reginald Rowland _____.A. hated the warB. was from the UKC. worked for GermanyD. was good at making up stories34. Which of the following best describes the step 2 of the directions?35. In sending secret messages, the hairdryer is used to _____.A. show the secret messageB. remove the lemon pulpC. squeeze the juiceD. dry the juice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。

In China, the mother river is the Yellow River while the Indian one is the Hindu River. These two cultures were developed for several thousand years and formed their own 4 .

Though a bit different from the Chinese one, it belongs to the same 7 .When the two mother rivers gave birth to the eastern culture, another famous culture was 8 on the Mesopotamian Plain美索不达米亚平原---- the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of the Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. And these two are well-known as the 9 of the European culture.

高二下学期英语期末考试试题（附答案）一、阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）（共4题；共30分）1.阅读理解On 29 May last year, I was doing my swim training for a half Ironman race in the bay near my home.I was finishing my first loop (圈) when I felt jaws coming around my body and a sharp pain. The water was dark, so I couldn't see anything. It just came out of nowhere and then it was gone in a flash. I knew it was something really big and assumed it was a shark. I panicked, but knew I needed to get out of the water. I was kicking wildly in case it came back. There was a lifeguard boat close by, so I waved my arms in the air and screamed for help. It got to me within 20 seconds. At that point I didn't feel anything; adrenaline (肾上腺素) had taken over. The lifeguards held me under the arms and pulled me up out of the water. Then the pain kicked in and it was pretty hard to bear. Some muscle had been bitten off my right arm. I felt a lot of warm, gushing blood.My chest felt heavy, as if someone had put their foot on it, and I was having trouble breathing. It was extremely painful. When I got to the hospital, I told the nurses to put me to sleep because of the pain. I just wanted them to fix me.I woke up after surgery four hours later. My doctor was amazed when I managed to move my fingers: the bite just missed a major nerve. My right lung had been damaged; I had several broken bones and a nerve in my leg was cut, so I have reduced feeling at the top of my leg. The shark also bit through my upper back muscle.Local experts determined that the shark was probably 9-10 feet long. It was young, about seven years old. It just attacked me, left and didn't come back because it figured I wasn't food.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案，并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

AMr Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, "if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea.""OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it.

D．Adviser.DThroughout the world, clothing has many uses.It is used to provide protection from the elements.It is also worn to prevent others from seeing specific parts of one's body.However, the parts of the body that must be covered vary widely throughout the world.Some clothing is worn to provide supernatural（神奇的） protection.Wearing a lucky shirt to take an exam is calling for supernatural assistance.People in all cultures use clothing and other forms of bodily decoration to communicate status, intentions and other messages.In North America, we dress differently for business and various leisure activities.North American women are usually much more knowledgeable of and concerned with little difference in messages communicated by clothes than men.At times, this leads to silly mistakes of interpretation of female intentions on the part of men.Of course, clothing styles are also intended to communicate messages to members of the same gender (性别)．Long before we are near enough to talk to someone, their appearance tells their gender,age, economic class, and often even intentions.We begin to recongnize the important cultural clues at an early age.The vocabulary of dress that we learn includes not only items of clothing but also hairstyles，jewellery, and other body decoration.In most cultures, however, the same style of dress communicates different messages depending on the age，gender，and physical appearance of the individual wearing it.Putting on certain types of clothing can change your behavior and the behavior of others towards you.This can be the case with a doctor's white lab coat, or an army uniform.Most uniforms are clearly symbolic so that they can rapidly and unmistakably communicate status.For instance, the strange hairstyle and clothing of the English “punks” are essential aspects of their uniforms.There are many forms of body decoration other than clothes that are used around the world to send messages.These include body and hair paint, and even body deformation（损伤）.When doctors put braces on teeth, they are actually doing the same thing—deforming of reforming（改进） a part of the body to make it more attractive.13．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A．Clothing and Culture B．Communication through ClothingC．Clothing and Social Behavior D．Ways of Sending Messages14．Some people wear lucky shirts to take an exam because they believe________.A．clothes have extraordinary powerB．clothes can hide their fear for the examC．shirts can make them more comfortableD．shirts provide protection against bad weather15．In North America, men sometimes misunderstand women's intention because________.A．men are more careless than womenB．women spend more time on their clothesC．men and women have different views on clothing stylesD．men are careless about the different messages communicated by clothes第二节完形填空 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从1～15各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

高二下学期英语期末考试试卷(附答案)

高二下学期英语期末考试试卷（附答案）一、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）（共4题；共30分）1.阅读理解We produce 500 billion of plastic bags in a year worldwide and they are thrown away polluting oceans, killing wildlife and getting dumped in landfills where they take up to 1,000 years to decompose. Researchers have been unsuccessfully looking for a solution.The 16-year-old Canadian high school student, Daniel Burd, from Waterloo Collegiate Institute, has discovered a way to make plastic bags degrade(降解) in as few as 3 months, a finding that won him first prize at the Canada Wide Science Fair, a ＄10,000 prize, a ＄20,000 scholarship, and a chance to revolutionize a major environmental issue.Burd's strategy was simple: Since plastic does eventually degrade, it must be eaten by microorganisms(微生物)．If those microorganisms could be identified, we could put them to work eating the plastic much faster than under normal conditions.With this goal in mind, he grounded plastic bags into a powder and concocted(调制) a solution of household chemicals, yeast(酵母) and tap water to encourage microbes growth．Then he added the plastic powder and let the microbes work their magic for 3 months．Finally, he tested the resulting bacterial culture on plastic bags, exposing one plastic sample to dead bacteria as a control．Sure enough, the plastic exposed(暴露) to the live bacteria was 17% lighter than the control after six weeks.The inputs are cheap, maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because microbes produce heat as they work, and the only outputs are water and tiny levels of carbon dioxide.“Almost every week I have to do chores and when I open the closet door, I have piles of plastic bags falling on top of me．One day, I got tired of it and I wanted to know what other people are doing with these plastic bags．The answer: not much．So I decided to do something myself.” Said Daniel Burd.（1）Daniel Burd won first prize at the Canada-Wide Science Fair because ________.A.he found a way to degrade plastics in shorter timeB.he contributed much to environmental protectionC.he found a new kind of microorganismD.he could encourage microbe growth in an easier way（2）Daniel Burd exposed one plastic sample to dead bacteria to ________.A.make the live bacteria work betterB.know which bacteria worked fasterC.test how effective his method wasD.control the temperature in the process（3）Maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because ________.A.plastics can get hot easilyB.microbes can produce heat themselvesC.much carbon dioxide is producedD.the temperature can be controlled（4）Daniel Burd got his idea from ________.A.his school textbookB.the failure of researchersC.his everyday workD.the practice of other people2.阅读理解For hours after their boat sank, Ken Henderson and Coen trod(踏) water in the Gulf of Mexico, talking about life and death while struggling to survive. For more than 30 hours, it worked.Then Henderson was forced to make a decision. “I'm going to go for help or you're not going to make it,” Henderson told Coen, just before cutting the strap(带子) that connected them in the deep, cold waters. “I understand,”Coen responded, giving Henderson a last set of instructions, “Kiss my babies for me.”Days after the fishing trip ended in tragedy, Henderson told the story for The Associated Press.They had been fishing for a few hours when suddenly Coen noticed the boat was filling with water. Henderson got both motors roaring, only to have the saltwater that had leaked in break them straight away…Coen jumped to the right, his sunglasses and cap flying off. The two grabbed extra life jackets and other floating items, including a half full bottle of Diet Coke.“The water was so cold and it took your breath away,” Henderson said. They immediately began to tremble.The pair prepared for a long wait. And they talked.“We discussed things and discussed life. We discussed families. We just tried to keep occupied,” Henderson said.Eventually Coen started hallucinating(有幻觉). Henderson tried to keep Coen's arms and legs moving. But as morning came, Coen's situation worsened. And so Henderson decided to cut the strap.He swam for two hours, tired, frustrated and depressed. Then he saw an oil rig(钻探平台) in the distance. He swam, seeing ice and crystal trees in the water. He reminded himself constantly there were no trees.His legs was so weak that he could barely lift them. Henderson slowly pulled himself up the rig's ladder.It was over 50 miles from where they had gone in the water.All he could think of was Coen. Convinced his friend would survive, he told the coast guard where they had parted.Two hours later, a fisherman found a body in a life jacket.Later, in the hospital, Henderson saw his friend. He apologized and asked for forgiveness. He promised to realize his wishes and look after his girls.“I felt like a part of me had died out there,” Henderson said.（1）Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A.It was Henderson who first noticed something was wrong with the boat.B.Everything the men did to get the boat to work made matters worse.C.Henderson alone did what he could but it had little effect.D.The men's long discussion about life and death filled them with sadness.（2）After Henderson cut the strap and swam away, .A.he regretted his decision to leave his friendB.he knew he had a good chance of being savedC.he had to fight against exhaustion and hallucinationsD.he got encouraged by remembering the talk with Coen（3）What can we conclude from the article?A.Henderson tried to rescue both of them.B.They kept talking because they felt excited.C.Coen would have survived if he had believed in his friend.D.Coen was unwilling to be left alone but he eventually agreed.（4）What kind of person is Henderson?A.Strong-willed and loyal.B.Selfish but decisive.C.Smart and creative.D.Experienced but indifferent.3.阅读理解By now, you've probably been warned that a robot is coming for your job. But rather than repeat the warning, I've decided to throw down a challenge: man against machine.Start with the task we're doing right now: communicating in fluent human. We're sharing abstract ideas through words that we choose with an understanding of their slight difference and impact. We don't just speakin human; we speak as humans. A robot who says that science is fun is delivering a line (念一句话). A human who says that science is fun is telling you something important about being alive.Here's another inbuilt advantage we take for granted: as humans we are limited by design. We are bound in time: we die. We are bound in space: we can't be in more than one place at a time. That means when I speak to an audience, I am giving them something special. It's a custom-made, one-off, 100% robot-free delivery, from today's one-and-only Australian Chief Scientist.True, I now come in digital versions, through Twitter and Facebook and other platforms, but the availability of those tools hasn't stopped people from inviting me to speak in person. Digital Alan seems to increase the appetite for human Alan, just as Spotify (a digital music service) can increase the demand for a musician's live performances.Thanks to technology, many goods and services are cheaper, better and more accessible than ever before. We like our mass-produced bread, and our on-tap lectures and our automated FitBit advice. But automation hasn't killed the artisan bakery (面包店). Online courses haven't killed the booming, alongside their machine equivalents.Here's a third argument for the win. We humans have learned the habit of civilization. Let me explain this point by a story. A few years go, some researchers set out to study the way the people interact with robots. They sent out a small robot to patrol (巡逻) the local mall. That robot had a terrible time, and the villains of the story were children. They kicked him, bullied him, and smacked (掌击) him in the head.The point is not that the children were violent. The point is that the adults were not. They restrained whatever primitive impulse (冲动) they might have felt in childhood to smack something smaller and weaker in the head, because they had absorbed the habit of living together. We call it civilization. If we want artificial intelligence for the people, we'll need every bit of that civilizing instinct.Together, these points suggest to me that humanity has a powerful competitive edge. We can coexist with our increasingly capable machines and we can make space for the full breadth of human talents to flourish. （1）What's humans' second advantage according to the author?A.Our special personality.B.Our super intelligence.C.Our unique existence.D.Our language ability.（2）What's the author's attitude towards Spotify and FitBit?A.Negative.B.Doubtful.C.Grateful.D.Reserved.（3）Why does the author tell the story of a small robot?A.To prove humans are well-educated.B.To show children are naughty in nature.C.To suggest machines will become violent.D.To indicate machines can serve humans well.（4）What's the author's final conclusion about humans and machines?A.Both sides would be losers in the fight.B.Humans will completely defeat machines.C.Machines will replace humans in many fields.D.Humans and machines will live in harmony with each other.4.阅读理解One of the most firmly established idea of manliness is that a real man doesn't cry. Although he might shed a tear at a funeral, he is expected to quickly regain control. Sobbing openly is for girls. One study found that women cry significantly more than men do—five times as often, on average, and almost twice as long per period.Historically, however, men routinely wept, and no one saw it as shameful. For example, in the Middle Ages, knights cried purely because they missed their girlfriends. In The Knight of the Cart, no less a hero than Lancelotweeps at a brief separation from Guinevere. There's no mention of the men in these stories trying to restrain or hide their tears. They cry in a crowded hall with their heads held high. Nor do their companions make fun of this public crying; it's universally regarded as an admirable expression of feeling.So where did all the male tears go? The most obvious possibility is that this shift is the result of changes as we moved from an agricultural society to one that was urban(城市的) and industrial. In the Middle Ages, most people spent their lives among those they had known since birth. If men cried, they did so with people who would sympathize. But from the 18th to 20th centuries, the population became increasingly urbanize, and people were living in the midst of thousands of strangers. Furthermore, changes in the economy required men to work together in factories and offices where emotional expressions and even private conversations were discouraged as time wasting.Yet human beings weren't designed to swallow their emotions, and there's reason to believe that holding back tears can be harmful to your well-being. Research from the 1980s has suggested a relationship between stress-related illnesses and inadequate crying. Weeping is also, somewhat related with happiness and wealth. Countries where people cry the most tend to be richer and more confident.（1）In history, people considered it ________ for men to cry in public.A.manlyB.acceptableC.shamefulD.ridiculous（2）How does the author answer the question raised in paragraph 3?A.By making comparisons.B.By explaining effects.C.By offering descriptions.D.By giving definitions (定义).（3）Who is likely to be healthier according to the passage?A.Tony who lives alone and seldom expresses himself.B.Emily who is outgoing but sometimes sobs in public.C.Arthur who is under great stress but never shed a tear.D.Rebecca who sometimes cries but quickly regain control.二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）（共1题；共10分）5.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。
