甘肃省会宁县第一中学2017-2018学年高二上学期第一次月考英语试题 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 Emily and Zach are confused! Their parents told them they could choose between Massachusetts and Arizona for their vacation this summer. Emily has always wanted to visit Boston, the capital of Massachusetts. Zach and she both agree that walking along the Freedom Trail would enable them to see Boston's most famous places of historic interest, like the site of the school Ben Franklin attended and the Old State House. If Emily and Zach went toMassachusetts, they could spend a few days at the beaches on Cape Cod. Emily loves body boarding, and Zach is great at body surfing. They both enjoy building sand castles with their mom and dad. Zach finds learning about Native Americans wonderful and has always wanted to travel along the Apache Trail in Arizona. This mountain highway passes Native American ruins in Tonto National Forest. Emily is not as interested in traveling along this trail as Zach, but they both would like to visit Phoenix, the capital, and then travel to Grand Canyon National Park and Meteor Crater (陨石坑). Zach learned in science class that Meteor Crater is a hole over 4,000 feet wide and 520 feet deep that was created when a huge object from space fell to Earth. The object went so deep that it has never been found. Zach would really like to try to discover it. But Emily thinks if experienced scientists and researchers cannot find it, Zach might as well not even bother (费工夫) to try. The only drawback for Zach and Emily if they choose Arizona would be the heat. It is very hot and dry in this southwestern state. Massachusetts, on the other hand, is in the northeastern United States. Here Zach and Emily and their parents could enjoy mild (温和的) temperatures. Their parents love hot weather, but Zach and Emily do not really like to sweat. How will they ever decide to which state they should travel? If only they could take two trips! 21. Emily and Zach will spend their summer vacation _____. A. visiting their parents B. learning how to swim C. doing some sightseeing D. living with Native Americans 22. Compared to Emily, Zach is more interested in _____. A. design B. sports C. beaches D. history 23. The underlined word “drawback” in Paragraph 4 means _____. A. value B. reason C. interest D. disadvantage 24. What would be the best title for the text? A. A difficult choice B. An interesting plan C. An unforgettable trip D. A personal experience B In the U.S., speaking more than one language fluently is not very common — except in Los Angeles, California. The city has one of the largest populations in the U.S. of young people between the ages of 18 and 34. More than half of them in Los Angeles are bilingual (会说两种语言的). Maria Elena Burgos, a mother of two American-born daughters, is cooking a Mexican breakfast. She says making Mexican food is just one of the many traditions in her home. Another is speaking Spanish to her children. “We want to keep Spanish somewhere in their learning too, not only at home.” Ms. Burgos thinks being bilingual will give them more opportunities in the future. Knowing Spanish also means the children can talk with their relatives in Mexico. Ms. Burgos' daughters both want to know their family's culture. “We are doing this in order to go back to our roots because that's part of who we are,” they say. The U.S. Census Bureau (人口普查局) says more than half the adults in the Los Angeles area between 18 and 34 years old speak a language other than English at home. For the whole country, the number of bilingual adults is only 25 percent. The number of bilingual speakers has gone up since the 1990s. University of California Los Angeles professor Raul Hinojosa says that in the past, the children and grandchildren of immigrants (移民) did not continue to speak the parents' native language. But now the opposite is true. In the last ten years, more immigrant parents say they want their children to keep speaking their native language. Mr. Hinojosa calls their choice the “path of pride”. The decision to keep a native language is clear in Los Angeles now. And, as the number of minorities in the U.S. continues to grow, he thinks bilingualism will spread to the rest of the country. 25. Ms. Burgos hopes her two daughters can _____. A. have a healthy diet B. become true Americans C. develop many good habits D. have a competitive advantage 26. What's the attitude of Ms. Burgos' daughters towards speaking Spanish? A. Bored. B. Worried. C. Interested. D. Surprised. 27. From the last three paragraphs, we can learn that more people in the U.S. _____. A. are proud of their new country B. speak English very fluently C. are learning a second language D. are forgetting their parents' native language 28. Mr. Hinojosa is sure that _____. A. more people will immigrate to the U.S. B. the U.S. is on the path to bilingualism C. the population of Los Angeles will drop D. more minorities will be accepted by the U.S. C Most people will recognise the man in this photograph. He is, of course, Bill Clinton, ex-president of the United States. Bill Clinton is a very popular speech giver and regularly gives talks all over the world, to many different audiences. He is so effective at giving talks because he has a special quality which we call “charisma (魅力)”. Nowadays, psychologists (心理学家) are becoming very interested in charisma and want to describe its meaning in a better way. People often misunderstand what charisma is and think of it as a kind of fame, but it is not the same as fame. Charisma is a kind of magic and is relatively rare. A well-known American psychologist thinks that charismatic people are basically excellent communicators. However, they have other qualities such as self-confidence, eloquence (口才) and vision. Charismatic personalities are able to draw people to them, and people feel happy in their company. There is a sense of “togetherness” when a charismatic person is with other people. A good example of this ability, some say, is the famous American, Oprah Winfrey. She is a highly-successful businesswoman and is probably best known as the presenter of a very popular talk show. Oprah is able to relate to audiences at her shows and they respond well to her. Her charismatic personality has made her one of the richest women in the world. She owns several houses and publishes her own magazines. Presently, she is presenting a new series of the Oprah Winfrey Show. She also runs a book club, which influences the nation’s reading habits and may be one of the reasons why people are reading more these days in the USA. A woman who had extraordinary charisma was the film star, Marilyn Monroe. A beautiful woman and a talented (有天赋的) actress, she was always the centre of attention wherever she went. Unlike fame, charisma doesn’t disappear over time. Even now, more than fifty years after her death, when young people see Monroe in her films, her charisma seems as fresh and powerful as ever. 29. Bill Clinton is good at giving talks because _____. A. he has a quality called charisma B. he was once president of the USA C. he has many fans that support him D. he is well-known all over the world 30. According to the text, charismatic people _____. A. are all effective speech makers B. are all confident and successful C. can easily attract and interest people D. often try to create a calm atmosphere 31. What do we know about Oprah Winfrey? A. She is most famous as a magazine publisher. B. She has a happy relationship with her audiences. C. She often gives talks to American young people. D. She writes books to influence Americans’ reading habits. 32. The author mentions the popularity of Marilyn Monroe to show that _____. A. fame is as important as charisma B. famous people always have charisma C. charisma doesn’t become weaker over time D. Monroe is an extraordinarily talented actress D In February 1807, President Jefferson organized an expedition (远征) for the American Philosophical Society (APS). The members of the Society were especially interested in the bones and long teeth that had been found along the Ohio River valley for more than 100 years. The French and British explorers who had first discovered these bones had sent most of them back to their countries. Many believed they were from a mammoth (猛犸象), similar to the frozen animal bones found in Siberia. But the teeth of the mammoth found in the Ohio River valley were different from those of the mammoth found overseas. The scientists of the Society knew they had to find more of these mysterious bones. As president of the Society, Thomas Jefferson hired (雇用) William Clark to carry out this new search. Four years earlier, Jefferson had chosen Clark and Meriwether Lewis to survey the vast, unknown lands west of the Mississippi River to look for the mysterious animals living there. But the Lewis and Clark Expedition just found few fossils (化石). So in the fall of 1807, William Clark tried again. He made his way to Big Bone Lick in the Ohio River valley, where mammoth bones had been collected before. After digging for only two weeks, Clark sent Jefferson a letter describing the bones they had found. Jefferson hoped that Clark would be able to find more different bones. He wanted to expand the APS' fossil collection. Clark and his men finally dug out about 300 bones, including mammoth, elephant, goat, buffalo, and horse. Six months later, Jefferson received the bones Clark found in the Ohio River valley. He was so surprised at the large number that he invited his fellow society member Dr. Caspar Wistar to come to look at the bones. As they sorted through them, Jefferson came up with a new idea. He would keep the bones that the APS needed for its collection and share the rest with the Museum of Natural History in Paris. Jefferson also kept a few choice (精选的) fossils for himself, fixing the head and the long teeth of the mammoth on the wall in the entrance hall of his Virginia home, Monticello. 33. What can we learn about the American Philosophical Society? A. Its aim was to protect animals. B. It was set up by President Jefferson. C. Its members were interested in science. D. It was close to the Ohio River valley. 34. Why did Jefferson choose Clark to carry out the new search? A. Because Clark had such work experience before. B. Because Clark found the first mammoth bone. C. Because Clark was a member of the APS. D. Because Clark volunteered to do this work. 35. Clark's dig in the Ohio River valley in 1807 was _____. A. a big success B. full of danger C. nearly worthless D. quite interesting 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。 How teens can stay fit Any type of regular, physical activity can improve your fitness and your health. 36 Exercise should be a regular part of your day, like brushing your teeth, eating and sleeping. It can be in gym class, joining a sports team, or working out on your own. Keep the following tips in mind: 37 A good attitude is important. Find an activity that you think is fun. You are more likely to stick with it if you choose something you like. A lot of people find it's more fun to exercise with someone else, so see if you can find a friend or family member to be active with you. Take it one step at a time. 38 For example, walk or ride your bike to school. Get on or off the bus several blocks away and walk the rest of the way. Use the stairs instead of taking the elevator. Get your heart pumping (跳动). Whatever you choose, make sure it includes aerobic (有氧的) activity that makes you breathe harder and increases your heart rate. This is the best type of exercise because it increases your fitness level and makes your heart work better. 39 Examples of aerobic activities are basketball, running, or swimming.
