鹤壁淇滨高中2017-2018学年下学期高二年级 第三次月考英语试题 时间：100分钟 总分：150分 命题人：闫化闪 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。‎ A ‎ Do you want to travel abroad? If you do, here are some cities around the world you can consider traveling to.‎ Athens, Greece It is the birthplace of Western civilization now almost 4,000 years old. Explore the Acropolis in Athens, and then visit the new Acropolis Museum to truly appreciate the ancient settlement. Walk in Socrates' footsteps around the Agora — the center of social activities in ancient Greece. Beyond the Acropolis, you can also explore the flea markets (跳蚤市场) of Monastiraki and Plaka. ‎ Budapest, Hungary Budapest is known as the city of naturally warm pools of water called spas. The Hungarian capital features 16thcentury Turkish pools as well as medicinal spas. Budapest is also a longtime “foodie city”. Try local specialties (招牌菜) like Hungarian goulash, rich with beef, onions, potatoes, and spices.‎ Queenstown, New Zealand On New Zealand's beautiful South Island, Queenstown is one of the top places in the world for hiking, boating, and skiing. Nearby Milford Sound offers the peaceful beauty for which New Zealand is famous. Perhaps the most famous New Zealand product is the Lord of the Rings movies. Take a road trip and explore places where the movie was filmed.‎ Dubai, the United Arab Emirates Dubai is a city famous for luxury (奢侈的) goods. One of its shopping centers even has an indoor ski slope. Dubai is also home of the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. And the Burj AlArab hotel is on an artificial island in the Arabian Sea. ‎ ‎21．Where can you learn about social activities in ancient Greece?‎ ‎ A．At Plaka. 　　 B．At Monastiraki.‎ ‎ C．At the Agora. D．At the Acropolis.‎ ‎22．To enjoy the peaceful beauty of nature, one should go to ________.‎ ‎ A．Greece B．Hungary ‎ C．New Zealand D．the United Arab Emirates ‎23．Dubai would most likely attract those who are interested in ________.‎ ‎ A．delicious food B．outdoor sports ‎ C．the ancient civilization D．manmade wonders B About 97% of the world's water is salty and is found in our oceans and seas. But, as we can't drink seawater, how can it be important? ‎ Every part of our seas and oceans contains an amazing number of animals and fish that live at different ocean depths. Most of the different species of animals and fish depend on simple plants for their food. These simple plants called algae (海藻) drift near the surface of the ocean and use sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into food and oxygen. In fact, algae produce over half of the oxygen people breathe. How important seawater is! ‎ Each plant or animal in our seas and oceans is an important link in a food chain. The algae are eaten in large amounts by microscopic animals, which are in turn consumed by larger animals. These food chains are delicately balanced. ‎ The bad news about the food chains in the oceans is that they are under threat because of man. People once thought that the oceans were so big that it didn't matter if we dumped rubbish into them or caught huge quantities of fish and whales for food. But we now know this is not true, and fish stocks in the oceans have started to drop. ‎ Thankfully, the world is taking steps to protect the future of our oceans by introducing international agreements to protect marine habitats. Most countries have introduced fishing restrictions to protect fish stocks in the oceans, and new techniques are being pioneered to cope with pollution. Finally, the importance of protecting oceans is being made known to more people. This is just the beginning of a long process to protect the oceans for our future. We depend on the oceans for fish which are an important part of the human diet. How important seawater is! ‎ ‎24．Which of the following is the proper order of the food chain? ‎ ‎ A．small animals→algae→microscopic animals→large animals→man ‎ ‎ B．algae→microscopic animals→large animals→larger animals→man ‎ C．small animals→algae→large animals→microscopic animals→man ‎ D．microscopic animals→algae→large animals →larger animals→man ‎25．From the passage, we learn that________. ‎ ‎ A．most fish and sea animals live at the surface of the seas ‎ B．it is very difficult to break the balance of a food chain ‎ C．excessive（过度的）fishing has caused the decrease in fish stock ‎ D．it won't be long before the problems concerning oceans will be solved ‎26．Which of the following is NOT a way being used to protect oceans? ‎ ‎ A．The use of international agreements. ‎ ‎ B．Forbidding fishing to protect fish stocks.‎ ‎ C．The use of new techniques. ‎ ‎ D．Raising people's awareness of the need to protect oceans.‎ ‎27．What would be the best title of the passage?‎ ‎ A．The importance of seawater ‎ B．Life in the oceans ‎ C．How to protect food chains ‎ D．How to deal with seawater pollution C You may ride on your bicycle in a rush to get to school every morning. You may fight to get a bit of space on a bus or on the subway. You may also watch taxis crawl their way through traffic jams.‎ No matter where you are, all big cities around the world have traffic jams these days. But although they all have their problems, many cities also have a type of transport that has become a cultural icon (文化标识)．‎ In London, to avoid the traffic above ground, people use the “underground”， also called the “Tube”. The city has the oldest and most complicated underground railway system in the world and is the pride of many Londoners. With 12 lines and 275 stations across the city, the Tube, is normally the quickest and easiest way of getting around London. In London, you are never far from a Tube station.‎ New York is famous for its Yellow cabs. They serve as a quick and easy way of getting across Manhattan, where the subway doesn't take you everywhere. Stopping a cab is easy, just stick out your arm like you do in any city. But, with over 12,000 yellow cabs in the Big Apple, they also cause traffic jams.‎ Since 1873 when the first cable car started public service, the slow and noisy vehicle has been a symbol of San Francisco. Although once damaged by a serious earthquake and challenged by cars, it is never caught in traffic jams and provides better views than the subway.‎ But there are no such symbols in Los Angeles. If you visit you'd better rent a car. The city's public transportation is terrible. It can take hours to get across town by bus. The subway covers just a small part of the city centre. The light rail line only runs between the Long Beach hotel area and the city centre. That's why Angelenos love their private cars more than any other people in the world.‎ ‎28．If you have a chance to London and want to avoid the traffic jam, you'd better ________.‎ ‎ A．ride vehicle　　　　　 B．take a taxi ‎ C．use subway D．rent a car ‎29．Which type of transportation has become a cultural icon of the Big Apple?‎ ‎ A．Noisy vehicle. B．Cable cars.‎ ‎ C．Subway. D．Yellow cabs.‎ ‎30．People in Los Angeles like their private cars because of the following except that________.‎ ‎ A．the public transportation is terrible ‎ B．it is not expensive to take a private car ‎ C．the underground railway covers a small part of the city center ‎ D．people have to spend hours getting across the Los Angeles　‎ ‎31．The passage mainly tells us ________.‎ ‎ A．how big cities in the foreign countries keep on moving ‎ B．how people in the city avoid the traffic jams ‎ C．why London has the oldest and complicated subway ‎ D．why people call New York the Big Apple D If you're bored with oldfashioned running, or if you feel that it's not a complete workout, you might want to try crunning. It does not mean crying while running. It's actually a cross between crawling (爬行) and running that involves getting down on all fours and moving. ‎ The strange workout, best described as your thighs' (大腿) worst nightmare, was invented by Australian fitness enthusiast Shaun McCarthy. The video of his crunning has been getting much attention online and it has inspired others to take up running on all fours as well. Now crunning is a steadilygrowing sport in Australia.‎ McCarthy says that crunning is a more complete workout because it involves the upper body as well. “It really works your thighs and shoulders at the same time，” he said, adding that he believes it burns more calories as well. Some fitness experts believe that McCarthy might just be onto something there. According to Kim Baylor, a certified personal trainer, any exercise that involves full body motions leaves the chance to develop a lot of strength. ‎ However, many think crunning is likely to be out of date soon and it might even be harmful if done incorrectly. Fitness coach Kevin Dean said, “We humans are upright; our wrists have different structures than ankles. But a quadruped (四足的) animal would have four of roughly the same joint. As a result, I often see broken noses, bad wrists, and shoulder problems arising from crunning.”‎ Health experts suggest wearing special gloves to prevent damage to hands while crunning.‎ ‎ It's necessary to increase the intensity (强度) of exercise step by step. Crunning may be too much for a beginner and it could be bad for your neck. If it hurts severely, stop immediately and just stick to traditional running.‎ ‎32．What do we know about crunning?‎ ‎ A．It is running on all fours.‎ ‎ B．It's not a complete workout.‎ ‎ C．It is gaining worldwide popularity.‎ ‎ D．It is created to strengthen the thighs.‎ ‎33. Kim Baylor's attitude to crunning is ________.‎ ‎ A．unfavorable B．approving ‎ C．doubtful D．cautious ‎34. What will Kevin Dean agree with?‎ ‎ A．McCarthy's idea is practical.‎ ‎ B．Crunning is a better fitness activity.‎ ‎ C．Crunning is not suitable for human beings.‎ ‎ D．It's dangerous to take wholebody exercise.‎ ‎35. What's the advice on crunning from health experts?‎ ‎ A．Try to avoid using your neck.‎ ‎ B．Once you begin, never give up.‎ ‎ C．Take measures to protect your hands.‎ ‎ D．Go as fast as possible at the beginning.‎ 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。‎ Birth order plays a vital role in deciding the characteristics of a child.
