‎2019-2020学年山东泰安高二下英语期中试卷 一、阅读理解 ‎ ‎ ‎1. ‎ Study lamps are vital to learning. Finding the best lighting for study is important for everyone. For the sake of maximizing the use of time and energy, and for the very important goal of preserving eyesight, anyone reading for understanding needs not only adequate light, but light that ensures reading with ease. Only when eye strain（疲劳）is not interfering does the learning process move forward.‎ Desk lamps You can purchase a large number of stylish desk lamps from lamp stores and online. The products range from precious ones to casual ones, from traditional ones to ultra-modern（超现代的）ones. They feature such desirable additions as dimmer switches and night lights. Some have battery backup in case of power failure and a choice of OttLite bulbs that duplicate natural sunlight.‎ LED desk lamps MetaEfficient reviews the most recommended LED desk lamps. These lamps come in many different styles and brand names and are valued for their directed beam of light, lack of heat and exceptional energy efficiency and brilliance. LED study lamps are made in goose neck and swivel（转圈）styles, as well as the more modern Z-bar and the human-like figure of the Moppel light.‎ Safest desk lamps According to Knol, StudyLite is the safest of all desk lamp designs. Not only does it provide LED light, freeing people from UV and IR radiation, but it has been tested to be eye-friendly. It has all the advantages—low cost and long life—of any LED lamps, but it is also equipped with a rechargeable battery. Its design and choice of colors make it desirable for more than its efficiency.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）What is the feature of Desk lamps?‎ A.Their styles are various. B.They are bought easily online. C.Their prices vary. D.They have satisfactory additions. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）What do LED lamps and StudyLite lamps have in common?‎ A.Rechargeable batteries.‎ B.Low cost and long life.‎ C.Their design and color choice.‎ D.Excellent energy efficiency and brightness.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）What is the main purpose of the text?‎ A.To introduce the method of choosing a proper lamp.‎ B.To give us some information on the best study lamps.‎ C.To present the finding that light affects study.‎ D.To give us some tips on how to protect our eyes.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎2. ‎ German cities are redrawing road markings to create new cycle paths for the duration of the Covid-19 lockdown, as cyclists demand more space to physically distance on their way to work.‎ Local authorities in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin trialled（试行）a temporary widening of two cycle paths on 27 March, arguing it would help cyclists keep the required 1.5-metre distance apart while car traffic was down owing to Germany's coronavirus restrictions.‎ On Friday, the council declared the plan a success because it had improved cycling safety while not blocking traffic.‎ The council said it had used removable tape and mobile signs to mark out the widened paths, which can be removed when the current restrictions on movement are lifted.‎ Residents in 133 other German cities have formally submitted applications for similar pop-up bike paths to their local authorities on the back of a campaign by Environmental Action Germany（DUH）, an environmental NGO.‎ The campaign group cites new research linking air pollution to higher coronavirus death rates as an argument for redrawing road signs across the country. "The coronavirus is showing us that clean air is necessary," said DUH's chair, Jirgen Resch. "It is now especially important to temporarily make it more important for people to move safely on their bikes. This will help improve air quality, enable exercise in fresh air while keeping a safe distance and avoid unnecessary accidents."‎ In Germany, bike repair shops are allowed to work because of the Covid-19 going on. Three federal states, Berlin, Saxony-Anhalt and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, have allowed bike shops to stay open.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）Why did German cities decide to widen temporary cycle paths?‎ A.To reduce air pollution.‎ B.To keep proper distance between cyclists.‎ C.To avoid traffic jams.‎ D.To go to work conveniently.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）How did the road workers sign the widened paths?‎ A.By hanging special boards.‎ B.By using removable tape and signs.‎ C.By pulling up attractive ropes.‎ D.By painting oil lines.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）What does the underlined word "pop-up" in paragraph 5 probably mean?‎ A.Separated. B.Substituted C.Expanded. D.Limited.‎ 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 ‎ ‎ ‎（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A.The use of bicycles can stop the Covid-19 from going on.‎ B.Special measures is taken to raise the production of bicycles.‎ C.Bicycle riding is encouraged to lower the risk of gathering.‎ D.All transportation means except bicycling are forbidden.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎3. ‎ A planet the size of Jupiter has been discovered and it is one of the hottest ones known to us. This has made scientists think about how planets are formed.‎ Planets such as Earth have more oxygen than carbon, but what if the composition is just the opposite? This is a question opened up by a recent discovery of a diamond planet by US and UK scientists. The planet is 1200 light years away from Earth and was observed using NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. Dr Marek Kukula explained that researchers initially used the Super WASP（Wide Angle Search for Planets）robotic observatories operating continuously, all year around. They detected the planet, then it was observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which detected the heat coming from the planet, and from that heat signature they can tell what this planet is made from.‎ The planet is very different to Earth. "It's a giant planet," explains Dr Kukula, "a gas planet, a bit like Jupiter in our solar system. But the interesting thing that they've discovered is that it has a very different composition to the planets in our solar system. This planet has more carbon than oxygen." This suggests that there is more than one way to make a solar system and the range of planets in the universe could be much wider than previously thought.‎ Dr Kukula says that if there are smaller planets in the same solar system with a similar composition, rich in carbon, their rocks could be rich in minerals such as carbon and diamonds, unlike Earth which has silica（硅石）, the sand that rocks on Earth are made from. "This is where this diamond planet idea comes from; they haven't actually detected a diamond planet yet," explains Dr Kukula. It's hypothetical（假设的）, "but you can imagine strange landscapes with black graphite rocks lying around and the surface could be covered with sticky liquids instead of water".‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）What planet has been discovered recently?‎ A.A planet hotter than others. B.A planet with more carbon. C.A planet bigger than Jupiter. D.A planet with more oxygen. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）How do scientists decide a planet's composition?‎ A.By telescope. B.By its heat. C.By distance. D.By its size.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）What can we learn about the new planet from paragraph 3?‎ A.It is completely different from Jupiter.‎ B.It is in our solar system.‎ C.It contains a lot of gas.‎ D.It looks like Earth.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）Why do scientists call the planet "a diamond planet"?‎ A.It is rich in carbon. B.It is rich in water. C.It is rich in sticky liquids. D.It is rich in silica. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎4. ‎ Foldable phones are once again facing questions about their durability（耐久性）. The Galaxy Z Flip and the Motorola Razr are now both available to buy in the US—but early reports suggest the screens are easily damaged.‎ One media published photos of two layers of the Razr's display separating, affecting the touch screen. The Galaxy Z flip, meanwhile, boasts（自夸）a "flexible glass" display—but tests appear to show it scratching（刮擦）as easily as plastic.‎ In a statement, Samsung said the display had a protective layer, and had undergone extensive testing. "While the display does bend, it should be handled with care," it said.‎ The Z Flip's "pretty thin glass" is one of Samsung's primary marketing messages for the new phone. But a durability test conducted by popular Zack Nelson, a regular buyer, suggested it was no more durable than a soft plastic screen—and could even be dented（划痕）by a fingernail.‎ Nelson said Samsung's screen scratched exactly how a plastic screen would react. "I don't know what material this is, but Samsung definitely shouldn't be calling it glass," he said. He found that the screen of the Motorola Razr scratched as easily but it is not marketed as "glass".‎ The Motorola Razr was put on sale 13 days ago in the US, but Raymond Wong, an editor says the flexible screen on his handset has already broken. The upper layer of the Razr's screen separated from the bottom, creating "a giant horizontal air bubble" for no apparent reason. He wrote that the fault appeared after a 45-minute train ride during which the phone was in his pocket. The screen was completely warped from hinge-to-hinge with the top layer raised like a poorly applied screen protector. But Mr. Wong said that apart from the visual problem, the damage has affected the responsiveness of the touchscreen.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（1）What attitude do the buyers have to the quality of Galaxy Z Flip and Razr?‎ A.Optimistic. B.Unconcerned. C.Suspicious. D.Objective.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（2）What is the outstanding feature of the Z Flip by Samsung?‎ A.Protective function. B.Low price. C.Extremely thin screen. D.Portable style. ‎ ‎ ‎ 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 ‎（3）Why does Nelson complain about Samsung?‎ A.He is disappointed at its unfair competition.‎ B.He is angry at its post-sale service.‎ C.He is unsatisfied with its inexact statement.‎ D.He is strict in its screen materials.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（4）What is the best title of the text?‎ A.Different brands have their special features.‎ B.Foldable phones may not be all that great.‎ C.Disadvantages of two kinds of phones.‎ D.Cheat always exists in business.‎ 二、七选五阅读 ‎ ‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ The outbreak has forced people to work from home and given many couples the chance to see each other at work. But, after all, living together and working together are not the same.（1）________‎ ‎1. Put the problem on the table Knowing what your partner does is one thing, but seeing them in action is another.

Then create a schedule and set boundaries when it comes to separating work life and personal life.‎ ‎2.（3）________‎ You might be learning that your spouse is a fan of all the office clichés or holds too many meetings—but it's best to keep that to yourself. Even if you think your intentions are good, don't offer any unsolicited（主动提供的）feedback when it comes to your partner's work style. And don't mistake complaining as an opportunity to criticize. "Even if a partner is complaining about work, you shouldn't see that as an invitation or opportunity to provide critical feedback," said Anthony Chambers, a chief academic officer. "（4）________"‎ ‎3. Don't complain a lot These working conditions aren't ideal for many people right now—especially if you are juggling kids and other care giving responsibilities.（5）________ However, try not to keep score of who is doing what around the house, or whose work is more pressing.‎ ‎ A. How to do with this "new colleague" to maintain a harmonious relationship? B. Allow them to complain and you just listen. C. Avoid treating each other like colleagues. D. In this way, you're more likely to arouse sympathy from the partner which will help negotiate boundaries. E. The first step in making this situation work is to talk about it. F. Provide an inside look. G. This can leave you feeling overburdened and exhausted.‎ 三、完形填空 ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Last week I went shopping in the supermarket.

It was a great day to play outside and the best day of my life because I got a new ball and a new bike as my sixth birthday presents, and I was visiting my cousin, Kristy, at her house.‎ ‎"Here I go!" shouted David while kicking my new ball. David lived next door and was older than me. I thought he was a wild child, but he was actually very kind. The ball went flying as if it were going to space. "That was high!" Kristy said in surprise and we went after the ball. We all had a great time.‎ Later we had supper and the food my aunt made was good. While Kristy was helping do the dishes, David and I ran outside to play. We started taking turns riding my bike. David suggested that we ride it to the forest. And I agreed. David and I got on the bike and David started riding fast.‎ As we rode through the forest, I felt the wind brushing my face. It felt so great and free. Suddenly the bike hit a fallen branch and we went flying off the bike. Lying on the ground, I felt dizzy（眩晕的）. I checked myself for injuries and saw some but they didn't upset me.‎ ‎"David!" I shouted out anxiously.‎ ‎"Hey," said a voice. I turned my head and it was David, who was standing behind me, holding my broken bike.

It took David some time to calm me down.‎ Para 1: ‎ When we realized it was time to walk home, we found ourselves lost. ________‎ Para 2: ‎ It was completely dark when we saw fireworks（烟花）being set off in the distance. ________‎ 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 参考答案与试题解析 ‎2019-2020学年山东泰安高二下英语期中试卷 一、阅读理解 ‎1.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 目明意护 应水射阅读 细射理子 日常使原类阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎2.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 目明意护 推正移断 说使文以读 词较脱测 细射理子 社会都连类阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎3.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 说使文以读 细射理子 科正知阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎4.‎ ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 标射归初 推正移断 说使文以读 观射态经 细射理子 科正知阅读 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 二、七选五阅读 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 说明根废选五 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 三、完形填空 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 人体故硫 记验立完形 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 四、语法填空 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 说明都资法填空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 五、词汇运用 ‎【答案】‎ 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 词三术分题 名较夏树 形于术具础 过射都空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 词三术分题 名较夏树 形于术具础 过射都空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 词三术分题 名较夏树 形于术具础 过射都空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 词三术分题 名较夏树 形于术具础 过射都空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 词三术分题 名较夏树 形于术具础 过射都空 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 六、书面表达 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 应表文木作 提纲类 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 ‎【答案】‎ 此题暂无答案 ‎【考点】‎ 读三续硬 ‎【解析】‎ 此题暂无解析 ‎【解答】‎ 此题暂无解答 第13页 共14页 ◎ 第14页 共14页
