福建省莆田市第七中学2018-2019学年高二下学期第一次月考英语试题+Word版缺答案

高二下学期英语月考试卷 一．阅读理解（共两节 满分40分）‎ 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项，并在答读卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A ‎“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!” ‎ That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. ‎ Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin (皮肤), you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too. You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.‎ All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. The bottoms of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet. ‎ There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them! ‎ Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. ‎ If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see! ‎ ‎1. By touching things ______. ‎ A. you will have a strange feeling ‎ B. you can learn more about them C. you will learn how to reach out your hand ‎ D. you can tell what colors they really are ‎ ‎2. You can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket with ______ ‎ A. your fingers. ‎ B. your eyes. ‎ C. your feet. ‎ D. your back. ‎ ‎3. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?‎ A. The sound of a drop of water. ‎ B. Do touch. ‎ C. The sound of very loud music. ‎ D. Don’t touch.‎ ‎4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? ‎ A. Touching is helping us to see things better. ‎ B. Feeling things is a good way for us to learn. ‎ C. We can't feel the things on show in any museum.‎ D. Our skins may help us to feel the sounds of music. ‎ B ‎ Odland remembers like it was yesterday working in an expensive French restaurant in Denver. The ice cream he was serving fell onto the white dress of a rich and important woman.‎ ‎ Thirty years have passed, but Odland can not get the memory out of his mind, nor the woman’s kind reaction. She was shocked, regained calmness and, in a kind voice, told the young Odland. “It is OK. It wasn’t your fault.” When she left the restaurant, she also left the future Fortune 500 CEO with a life lesson: You can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she treats the waiter.‎ ‎ Odland isn’t the only CEO to have made this discovery. Instead, it seems to be one ‎ of those few laws of the land that every CEO learns on the way up. It’s hard to get a dozen CEOs to agree about anything , but most agree with the Waiter Rule. They say how others treat the CEO says nothing. But how others treat the waiter is like a window into the soul.‎ ‎ Watch out for anyone who pulls out the power card to say something like, “I could buy this place and fire you,” or “I know the owner and I could have you fired.” Those who say such things have shown more about their character than about their wealth and power.‎ ‎ The CEO who came up with it, or at least first wrote it down, is Raytheon CEO Bill Swanson. He wrote a best-selling book called Swanson’s Unwritten Rules of Management. “A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter, or to others, is not a nice person,” Swanson says. “I will never offer a job to the person who is sweet to the boss but turns rude to someone cleaning the tables.”‎ ‎5. What happened after Odland dropped the ice cream onto the woman’s dress?‎ ‎ A. The woman comforted him. B. He was blamed.‎ C. He was fired. D. The woman left the restaurant at once.‎ ‎6. Odland learned one of his life lessons from ________.‎ ‎ A. an article in Fortune B. the advice given by the CEOs ‎ C. his experience as a waiter D. an interesting best-selling book ‎7. According to the text, most CEOs have the same opinion about ________.‎ ‎ A. Fortune 500 companies B. the Management Rules ‎ C. Swanson’s book D. the Waiter Rule ‎8. From the text we can learn that ________.‎ ‎ A. one should be nicer to important people ‎ B. CEOs often show their power before others ‎ C. one should respect others no matter who they are D. CEOs often have meals in expensive restaurants C ‎ If you like traveling, you can go to the following cities. ‎ Marrakech‎, ‎Morocco The city is known as the “red city” for its rose-colored buildings. The city’s Medina, an old city, is a really famous place. 1000-year-old monuments(历史遗迹) can be found in Medina. Today, the place is a crowded marketplace with traditional Moroccan goods for sale. Make sure to visit an outdoor theater in the city. Storytellers and musicians perform there. Siem Reap, ‎Cambodia Visitors can see hundreds of ancient Buddhist temples in and around the town. After a long day at the temples, tourists can enjoy one of the town’s many bars, restaurants and nightclubs. If you go there, you can pay a visit to the Phnom Kulen National Park in Siem‎ ‎Province. The park’s two waterfalls offer great swimming areas. ‎Istanbul‎, ‎Turkey Turkey‎’s largest city has one foot in Europe and other in Asia. The city is a great place for history lovers. If you go there, make sure to see Istanbul’s most famous religious buildings: the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. At night, you can try sailing on the Bosporus‎ ‎Strait. It divides this city into the European and Asian areas. ‎Hanoi‎, ‎Vietnam Vietnam‎’s capital has tree-lined streets, lakes, and some 600 temples and towers.

I can’t find blue food—I can’t find the flavor of blue! I mean yellow is lemon; orange is orange and red is cherry. Where is the blue food? ”‎ ‎ Well, Carlin pretty much has it right—there’s not no blue food, but there’s certainly not a lot of it. Fresh-picked blueberries are blue, though they become purple when they are turned into jam. The blue in blueberries—like the purple in grapes and the red in tomatoes—is found in nature. But it isn’t a hot color for food. People don’t seem to prefer blue food. Some diet programs even suggest that those determined to lose weight should make their food blue.‎ ‎ Eating, in part, begins with our eyes. Charles Spence—an experimental psychologist from Oxford‎ ‎University—points out that color can change our taste experience. Commonly, we consider red-colored foods up to 20% sweeter than they actually are; and green foods as being more sour. Spence suggests: human expectations may be influenced by our long history of watching - green fruits can become sweets they grow up and turn red.‎ But what about blue? Except blueberries, much of the blue food we see these days is dyed blue artificially. Food producers argue that artificial color doesn’t do much harm to health. A lot of research shows that some physical problems of kids are related to food dyes—while other studies show no effects at all. Blue birthday cake or even blue-dyed chicken can be served on the dinner table. So what?‎ ‎12. George Carlin’s words are placed at the beginning of the passage to _______.‎ ‎ A. show the author’s opinion B. lead in the topic ‎ C. tell a famous person D. introduce a TV show ‎13. Which of the following statements of blue is true?‎ ‎ A. Blueberries are always blue, whether fresh or not.‎ ‎ B. The blue in blueberries is found unnatural.‎ ‎ C. Blue is not a very popular color for foods.‎ ‎ D. People often feel cold when they eat blueberries.‎ ‎14. Eating sometimes begins with our eyes because _______.‎ ‎ A. our taste experience can be influenced by color ‎ B. red-colored food is 20% sweeter than green food ‎ C. people prefer red-colored food to green food ‎ D. before eating, people watch food for a long time ‎15. The underlined words “is dyed” in Para. 4 are closest in meaning to “_______”.‎ ‎ A. is eaten up B. has grown up ‎ C. is changed in color D. is harmful to 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ The jobs of the future have not yet been invented. 16 .

When meeting people, 5being excited, I often felt upset.‎ But we all know 6are important. The more friends you have, the more opportunities you get, 7it’s job opportunities, a romantic relationship, or business partners. So a smile is important to make others feel 8. Mother Teresa said, “Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a(an) 9to that person, a beautiful thing.”‎ The smile I’m now talking about is not to make a face to cashiers or waiters. I’m talking about those 10smiles you make when meeting old friends. So I’ve discovered a 11.

Sometimes, failure can benefit us a lot. When I had failed my English exam last term, I felt upset at first, but then I made up our mind to study even harder. It was that failure which motivated me to put more time or energy into learning English. What’s more, I find my small vocabulary and poor grammar led to my failure, but I changed my learning methods. Finally, I made great progresses in English. Most importantly, now I have a right attitude for failure. All in all, failure is the mother of success, what really helped me get closer to success.‎ 五．根据所给的提示用单词的正确形式完成句子（5分）‎ ‎1.________ (worry) about the time available, Zhang Pingyu had made a list of the sites she wants to see.‎ ‎2.
