会宁一中2019-2020学年度第一学期期末高二级 英 语 试 题 ‎ 本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分，共计100分钟，满分120分。‎ 考生作答时，将答案答在答题卡上，在本试卷上答题无效。考试结束后，保留试卷，只交答题卡。‎ 第I卷 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）‎ 第一节（共15个小题；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、D中，选出最佳选项。 ‎ A Emergencies can happen anytime, so being prepared for a home first aid kit(成套工具) is important for your family. Having a proper one in your home is an easy but necessary part of good emergency preparation.‎ Pick a good container One good choice is a large translucent plastic container, which makes it easy to see the materials inside. Lunchboxes are also another good choice. Basically, if it’s big enough, and at least somewhat water resistant, it can make a good container. Regardless of your container choice, it should be easy to recognize, so write “FIRST AID” on it with a marker.‎ Teach your family about the kit For younger children who shouldn’t use the items in the kit, teach them where it’s located, so they could show a visitor, relative or babysitter. For older children and adults, instruct them on how to use the items in it. Use a first aid instruction booklet, like those available from the American Red Cross for guidance and place a booklet in the kit for reference.‎ Keep your kit up–to–date No one wants to fetch a first aid kit and find the bandage box empty or the pain relievers expired (过期了的). Keep track of supply amounts and expiration dates regularly.‎ Create a checklist in the kit Record every item on a sheet of paper and keep it in the kit. Besides, record the amounts of the items and expiration dates next to the listed items on the checklist that you include in your kit. In this way, anyone who wants to reach the kit can immediately know what it includes and doesn’t include. Also, they can be clear whether the items can be used.‎ ‎1. Which is close to the meaning of the underlined word “translucent”?‎ A. Wide. B. Advanced. C. Clear. D. Strong.‎ ‎2. What should the young children be told about the home first aid kit?‎ A. How to use the items. B. What it contains.‎ C. Where to place it. D. When to fetch it.‎ ‎3. Why should the home first aid kit be examined regularly?‎ A. To make it clean and tidy. B. To make sure it’s available.‎ C. To be familiar with the items. D. To learn to deal with emergencies.‎ B My husband and I recently went to Disney World with our children and grandchildren. We had a wonderful time and made lots of sweet memories together, but unexpectedly, I learned something as we made our way through the parks.‎ Our four grandchildren were excited about the attraction where children can drive the cars. Since our party was uneven (不均匀的) in numbers and two people fit in each car, I sat out that one and headed down to get pictures of everyone as they drove past on the track.‎ As I waited for my gang to drive by, I noticed a car with a father and his son who looked to be about 7. They rolled down the hill at the beginning, and then the car stopped. The young driver looked panicked, “I can’t do it.” His father quietly said, “Yes, you can.”‎ ‎“No. I can’t!” “Yes, you can, son.”‎ The little guy was almost in tears, “I CAN’T!” With deep patience, ‎ the father said, “Son, you can do this. I’m going to help you.” Then he talked him through pushing the gas pedal (油门踏板) and driving the car. Mere moments later with the father helping his son, the two went smoothly on their way down the track.‎ The scene brought tears to my eyes. That sweet whispered to my soul, “Yes, you can”. Then every time things got hard or when I had failures along the way, I would think “You can”.‎ Time and time again, the words patiently encouraged me on the journey. That’s where the true strength comes in. I am aware that I can not do things under my own power, but the words “Yes, you can” come beside me and provide wisdom and strength. There’s no way I can fail. Are you struggling with something today? Have the “I can’t” moments taken over? You can trust the words “Yes, you can”.‎ ‎4. What did the author think of her family’s trip to Disney World?‎ A. Surprising. B. Disappointing. C. Satisfying. D. Boring.‎ ‎5. How did the boy feel before the car restarted again?‎ A. Excited. B. Frightened. C. Encouraged. D. Moved.‎ ‎6. What did the boy’s father do? ‎ A. He encouraged the boy. B. He let the boy drive all by himself.‎ C. He took the place of the boy and drove. ‎ D. He was unwilling to help the boy.‎ ‎7. What can be inferred from the text?‎ A. The author enjoyed traveling very much.‎ B. The author was unwilling to help lazy children.‎ C. “You can” has helped the author a lot.‎ D. The author hasn’t failed in anything.‎ C Almost every college and university in the US now offers some forms of Internet–based application. However, students may miss a lot when they only use Internet information to make their college decisions. Some people believe that the best way to get a detailed look at what life is like at any college or university is by visiting the campus.‎ At present, school visits are becoming popular in the US. Most students begin visiting colleges and universities that they are interested in before their final year of high school. The majority of colleges and universities let interested students visit their campuses at any time of a year. Students can contact the admission offices of the schools that interest them. Current students usually lead the tours. Their job is to provide information, offer advice and show future students different parts of the campus, such as housing and classrooms. During the visit, students should also try to plan a meeting with an admission official. Most schools ‎ keep a record of all the exchanges they have with candidates. Trying to meet with officials in person to ask them questions shows interest on the part of the applicant, which schools like to see.‎ It’s never too early to visit a school. This could be years before they even start thinking about the application process. Simply witnessing the college experience in real life can be helpful for young people. That is why some applicants even bring younger brothers and sisters with them on visits.‎ However, visiting schools may not be a choice appropriate to everyone, especially international (国际的）students, so for students who are unable to visit, there is one additional resource: social media. Many schools use Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat to advertise themselves. Schools will permit students to post videos and pictures that show what their daily lives are like at college. These can provide applicants with a view that is almost as good as being there in person.‎ ‎8. What’s the most common way to apply for a college?‎ A. By visiting the campus. B. By surfing the Internet.‎ C. By writing a letter. D. By making a call.‎ ‎9. Who are more likely to offer information to the visiting students?‎ A. Admission officials. B. Volunteers.‎ C. Students at school. D. Graduates.‎ ‎10. Which word can replace the underlined word “appropriate” in the ‎ last paragraph?‎ A. Suitable. B. Familiar. C. Equal. D. Related.‎ ‎11. What’s the purpose of the text?‎ A. To give some advice. B. To show a phenomenon.‎ C. To compare the changes. D. To attract more students.‎ D Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK’s first full ‎5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?‎ One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new ‎ tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost £1.4 billion for the ‎5G wavelengths, and to compensate（补偿） for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK’s first hologram ( 全息 ) call. The Manchester‎ ‎City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn’t all holograms, however: ‎5G will offer faster Internet access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on ‎4G will be available in just a second.‎ The wider application is to support connected equipment on the “Internet of things”—not just the Internet–enabled fridge that can reorder ‎ your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones (无人机) to communicate with each other.‎ Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor’s new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the ‎4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access (农村宽带接入）and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.‎ Obviously, ‎5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both ‎5G and ‎4G, and the first ‎5G–enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout (普及）so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new ‎5G phone well before ‎5G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.‎ ‎12. Why does Webb say “the technology could be a case of the emperor’s new clothes”?‎ A. He is in favor of the application of the new technology.‎ B‎.5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.‎ C‎.5G helps people communicate better with each other.‎ D. He prefers more money to be spent on ‎4G networks.‎ ‎13. What does the underlined word “addressing” most probably mean?‎ A. Making a speech. B. Trying to solve.‎ C. Managing to decrease. D. Responding to. ‎ ‎14. What does the last paragraph indicate(暗示）?‎ A. It’ll take several years to make ‎5G accessible to the public in the UK.‎ B‎.5G service shows huge development potential and a broad market.‎ C. Customers are eager to use ‎5G smart phones instead of ‎4G ones.‎ D. It’s probable that ‎5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain. ‎ ‎15. What do we know about the text?‎ A. Vodafone is successful in spreading the ‎5G service.‎ B. Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by ‎4G.‎ C. The application of ‎5G will make life much easier.‎ D‎.5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK. ‎ 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） ‎ ‎ If you have stage fright, or the anxiety or fear of speaking in public, you are not alone.
