河南省洛阳市第一中学2018-2019学年高一12月月考英语试题+Word版含答案

洛阳一高 2018-2019 学年第一学期高一 12 月月考英语试卷 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 The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, on the island of Hawaii, has two active volcanoes: Mauna Loa, which last erupted (喷发) in 1984, is 13,677 feet (4.17 km) above sea level; Kilauea is next to Mauna Loa and it has been erupting since January 3rd, 1983. It is 4,190 feet (1.23 km) above sea level. When to visit The park is open 24 hours a day all year round. There are no plants or trees on the lava (火山岩) fields and no protection from the sun, so you must bring sunscreen (防晒霜). How to get there The best way to get to the park is to take Highway 11. From the airport at Hilo, Highway 11 will take you southward across the eastern part of the island. Things to see If you want to know more about the park, the Kilauea Visitor Center is surely a stop to make. It is a quarter of a mile (402 m) from the park entrance. There, you can see a great movie about real lava and learn about the island’s natural and cultural history. The center is open from 7:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. There are also many guided walks and hikes around the park. You must check weather conditions and volcanic activity before hiking alone. If possible, you may drive down Chain of Craters Road to see lava flowing into the ocean. Tickets Entrance to the park is $10.00 for each vehicle, $5.00 for those who travel on foot or ride a bicycle. Children under the age of 15 are free. 1. Different from Mauna Loa, Kilauea _____. A. will disappear soon B. is closed to visitors C. is much bigger D. erupts more often 2. The Kilauea Visitor Center _____. A. offers all kinds of movies B. is next to the park entrance C. is open for 8 hours every day D. introduces visitors to the park 3. The text is most probably taken from _____. A. a travel magazine B. a newspaper report C. a geography textbook D. a research paper B Most high school students would rather spend their summer vacations far away from the classroom. But Vineet Kosaraju and Nikhil Cheerla are choosing to go back to school, and this time they are the teachers. “I think it’s really nice that I can help the community by spending just a little bit of time every week helping just a few students here and there try and learn programming,” Kosaraju said. Friends since they were young boys, Kosaraju and Cheerla always shared a love of computer science. They learned the skills from their parents and school, but recognized that not all children have that chance. “Programming isn’t taught in that many schools, especially low income (收入) schools, because there isn’t that much money to support it,” Kosaraju said. So he and Cheerla developed “Math and Coding,” an after-school program for kids of all ages to learn the basics of computer programming. Between applying for college and doing their own homework, the two boys now spend a few hours every week going to different libraries teaching classes that cover everything from building basic games to developing apps. The friends started the program a little over a year ago and already, it’s spread to more than a dozen libraries across the Bay Area in California. They are even training volunteers to teach these very same classes in other US states and Canada. Maryann Mitchell brought her 8-year-old granddaughter, Gabriella, to a class on coding at the Alum Rock Library in San Jose, California. “It’s a chance for her to learn,” Mitchell said. “It’s the way of the future, and it’s a good way for her to get grounded and be ready for what the future holds.” “I think the most rewarding thing is having people come up and thank you and say they really learned a lot from this class,” Cheerla said. “It doesn’t get any better than that.” 4. Why do the two boys return to the classroom during summer holidays? A. To improve their computer skills. B. To get some teaching experience. C. To raise money for local schools. D. To instruct kids in programming. 5. What do we know about the program? A. It has a growing influence. B. It has been run for many years. C. It helps students apply for college. D. It trains teachers to work for libraries. 6. How can the class benefit Gabriella? A. It encourages her to visit libraries. B. It helps her prepare for the future. C. It allows her to make more friends. D. It’s a chance to learn about the future. 7. What does the text mainly report? A. The great work of volunteers in the Bay Area. B. A library’s important role in helping students. C. Two teens’ free coding course for children. D. The close friendship between two students. C Navarathri, which is celebrated throughout India, falls in September or October. On the first three days, people pray (祈祷) to the goddess Durga, the protector who destroys all evil. The next three days they pray to Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Then, also for three days, they look to Saraswathi, the goddess of wisdom and knowledge. The tenth and final day of the festival is for the goddess Durga. On this day many years ago, Durga killed the evil buffalo-headed monster, Mahishasura. My daughter and I took out the models of the gods and goddesses that we had stored away last year. Soon the room was littered with all kinds of dolls. We usually buy at least one new doll every year. On the tenth day, the dolls are carefully put away. If a doll is too damaged to be shown, it is never thrown away. Instead, it is put deep into the seas. In our hallway six long wooden steps are set up. First, we spread a thick white cloth over the steps. Now it’s time to put the dolls on the steps carefully. Every year, the gollu is different. Sometimes — as the collection grows — there is no space to fit all of the dolls on the steps. Smaller dolls can also be placed on the floor. Every night there are prayers, music, dancing, and a large meal for many people. In northern India, the children sing songs while doing the dandiya raas, a traditional dance. Every dancer also has two wooden sticks — called dandiya — that he or she uses to make a sound in time to the lovely music. Dancing the dandiya raas helps people think of the true meaning of Navarathri — togetherness, laughter, and fun! 8. According to Paragraph 1, Navarathri _____. A. is just celebrated in Northern India B. usually takes place in the winter C. is in memory of Durga D. lasts for about ten days 9. How do Indians deal with the dolls used at Navarathri? A. They always take good care of the dolls. B. They usually throw away the broken dolls. C. They have to buy many new dolls every year. D. They keep the dolls in the hallway for a month. 10. The underlined words “the gollu” in Paragraph 3 probably mean _____. A. the collection of Indian songs B. the number of wooden steps C. the showing of the dolls D. the color of the cloth 11. What is mainly described in the text? A. Some traditional dances B. Three goddesses in India C. The history of Navarathri D. A popular festival in India D You might think people all over the United States have Wi-Fi----wireless Internet service---and mobile phones. But there is no such service in Green Bank, West Virginia, a tiny town four hours from the U.S. capital, Washington D．C． Fewer than 150 people live in Green Bank, which has two churches, an elementary school and a public library. It is also home to the largest radio telescope in the world. There is a ban on Wi-Fi in Green Bank, along with anything else that can create electromagnetic(电磁的)waves. Officials say the waves could disturb the signals the telescope receives. For many Americans, a visit to Green Bank is a little like returning to the 1950s. To get there, you must read road signs---because there is no GPS service in the town. People can connect with the Internet through telephones, but wireless service is not allowed. The observatory(天文台)is one of the largest employers in the area. The federal National Science Foundation(NSF) spends about ＄8.2 million a year to operate the observatory, telescope and educational center. Jonah Bauserman is a technician. If he supposes there is signal that is not allowed in the zone, he drives to the house where the signal is coming from and checks it. But once a week, when the device is cleaned, some banned devices are allowed near it. People in the town respect the work of the scientists. And they say they are happy to live without Wi-Fi and mobile phones. “You know, instead of sitting here on our phones and other devices we’re out fishing and hunting and going to each other’s houses.” Everyone knows each other and communication is almost always face-to-face. 12．What will you see when you pay a visit to Green Bank? A. GPS service B. road signs C. cell phone towers D. radio-controlled toys 13．What is Jonah Bauserman’s duty in his work? A．Following signals from cell phones. B．Cleaning the telescope once a week. C．Listening for signals from outer space. D．Protecting the telescope from being affected. 14．The telescope has brought to the local people. A．a healthier lifestyle B．many job chances C．great wealth D．much difficulty in life 15．What may be the best title for this text? A．The Largest Radio Telescope in the World B．Good Relationships Between People in an American Town C．An American Town Without Wi-Fi and Mobile Phones D．An American town without Internet 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。 Leonardo da Vinci is often thought of mainly as an artist, with world-famous works like The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. 16 But his notebooks, filled with his strange writing, show that his main interests were in engineering and technology. 17 If his pioneering work on anatomy (解剖学) is also taken into consideration, it is not hard to see why Leonardo is considered to be one of the greatest geniuses (天才) of all time. Born in 1452 to a Florentine lawyer and a local village girl, Leonardo was given only a very basic education. After ten years in the workshop of the artist Verrocchio, he began to work for himself. The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation. 18 At the age of thirty, he left his hometown and moved to Milan, where he spent seventeen years working for the Duke of Milan. 19 In fact, his painting was increasingly influenced by his interest in mathematics. During this period, he painted The Last Supper and developed his ideas for chemical weapons (化学武器). In 1506 he returned to Milan and became increasingly interested in science. 20 He also studied many other animals, comparing their bodies to the human body. From then on, Leonardo spent the rest of his life mainly on his scientific studies. A. Before long, he returned to his painting. B. Of course, his place in art history is certain. C. It also shows his great interest in technology. D. The notebooks are full of drawings for all kinds of inventions. E. He began to study human bodies and the movement of the blood. F. Here he continued to combine his scientific work with his painting. G. It was a good chance to make some money with his new inventions. 第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，共 30 分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Be a Traveler, not a Tourist Last summer, I had just enough money saved to buy a golden ticket—a 3-month train pass that would take me to the furthest reaches of Europe.
