2018-2019学年河南省安阳市二中高二上学期10月月考英语试题（Word版）

‎2018-2019学年安阳市二中高二年级第一次月考 英语试卷 ‎ 第I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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。           ‎ A ‎ Reading poems can be a lot of fun for kids. With these children's poetry books, children will gain a new appreciation for poetry and the spoken word.‎ Joyful Noise: Poems for Two Voices The entertaining sounds of insects fill these poems by Paul Fleischman, making it a favorite with 12-15-year-olds. These poems were written to be read aloud by two readers.‎ Paul Fleischman received the John Newbery Medal for young people's literature for the book in 1989. Other recognition included: Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honor Book, ALA Notable Children's Books list and so on.‎ Eric Beddow's artwork, full page, detailed pencil pictures, are vivid and effective complements to the poetry, which brings insects to life when read aloud by two voices.‎ You Read to Me, I'll Read to You: Very Short Stories to Read Together Poet Mary Ann Hoberman is the author of the picture book, which includes the joyful pictures of Michael Emberley. The book contains very short story poems for two people to read aloud, alternately and together. Each of the 12 stories for 6-11-year-olds features rhythm, rhyme, and repetition, as well as humor and attention on the joys of reading.‎ The book is one of a series of story poems. All the books are designed to be read aloud by two people, as if, says Hoberman, it's “a little play for two voices.” The two people can be an adult and a child or two children.‎ Big Talk: Poems for Four Voices Poems for four voices are much more challenging to present than poems for two voices, but middle school students tend to enjoy the challenge. The three-story poems in it will appeal to middle schoolers. The author, Paul Fleischman, provides a clear ‎ description of how to use the book. The poems are color-coded to make them easier for the four readers to keep track of their parts.‎ I Am Phoenix: Poems for Two Voices The fifteen poems for two voices in the book are all about birds. Ken Nutt's soft pencil pictures complement the poems by Paul Fleischman. The words of each poem are in two columns, each to be read by one person, sometimes individually, sometimes together.‎ ‎1．Which book is written for primary school students?‎ A.

I shook my head stubbornly — and felt the ache in my tooth.I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately.Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.‎ ‎"If you come by right now," the receptionist said, "the dentist will fit you in."‎ I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car.But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn't he as busy as the others?‎ In the dentist's office, I sat down and looked around.I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried.The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.‎ When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, "Don't worry.The dentist is very good."‎ ‎"How long do I have to wait for him?" I asked impatiently.‎ ‎"Come on, he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork," the assistant said.‎ ‎"The artwork?" I was puzzled.‎ The chair went back.Suddenly I smiled.There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling.How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.‎ What a relief!‎ ‎4．Which of the following best describes the author's feeling that morning?‎ A. Cheerful. B. Nervous. C. Satisfied. D. Upset.‎ ‎5．What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?‎ A. The dentist's agreeing to treat her at very short notice.‎ B.

Put oneself in other's shoes. D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.‎ C In Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called "satellite kids", who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.‎ Asians are immigrating to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.‎ The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. Because of these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West. Therefore, these children become "satellite kids", and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a "satellite kid".‎ Recently Canadians and Americans discovered the "satellite kid" problem. Because these children do not speak English well and their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a "satellite kid" means growing up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means growing up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere. What these "satellite kids" will probably say to their parents is that it's better to have parents around than to have a university education.‎ ‎8．Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because 　　　　.‎ A. they hope their children may easily find a job there B. the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own countries C. all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own countries D. the kids want to improve their English and make foreign friends ‎9．"Satellite kids" refer to Asian kids 　　　　.‎ A. without parents B. living abroad alone C. with university education D. speaking no English ‎10．Some Asian immigrant children become "satellite kids" because their parents 　　　　.‎ A.want to leave their own countries B.want them to go to university C.return to their countries to work D.want them to be independent ‎11．What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A.Parents want better education for their kids.‎ B.Parents feel lonely and miss their families.‎ C.Canadians and Americans begin to notice the "satellite kid"problem.‎ D.Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from their families.‎ D In mid-November of 1963, an island was born in the North Atlantic, some 20 miles off the southwestern coast of Iceland. It had given only one sign of its coming. For three days, farmers on the neighboring Vestmann Islands had noticed a bad smell in the air like the odor of rotten eggs.‎ Early on the morning of November 14, the captain of an Icelandic fishing ship saw black columns erupting from the sea through his telescopes. He suspected that he was seeing a volcano rising from the ocean. The hours that followed proved him right. He was watching the volcanic eruption that built the island later named Surtsey.‎ Some days earlier, a volcano had started to erupt 425 feet below the surface of the sea. It poured out gases and volcanic ash and cinder. They began to build a mountain. By the morning of November 15, the top of the volcano was 33 feet above the water and still growing rapidly. Columns of smoke and gases rose two miles into the air. Violent eruptions continued through the winter. In April 1964, the violent eruptions stopped, and lava began to flow. Surtsey,it seemed, had come to stay.‎ To earth scientists and to biologists, Surtsey was endlessly fascinating. It offered a chance to study a new volcano and to see new land take shape. Earth scientists hoped that by studying what was happening to Surtsey, they would gain a better understanding of the forces behind its growth.‎ Surtsey rose from a huge underwater mountain range that runs down the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and is called the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The ridge is the center of many earthquakes, and it is highly volcanic. Here and there its volcanic action has ‎ built mountains that thrust(猛推)through the surface of the ocean, creating small islands such as Surtsey. Long ago vast outpourings of lava from the ridge built the big island of Iceland.‎ The ridge, however, is much more than a builder of islands. It is a sign of powerful forces at work within the earth. Many earth scientists are certain that these same forces are builders of continents and mountains and are the cause of the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. They see the ridge as a key to understanding the most basic secrets of the earth. These forces helped to shape our planet when it was young, to give it land and sea and air, and so to make it the kind of planet where life could develop.‎ ‎12．What was the very first sign of Surtsey?‎ A.Some smoke. B.Explosions.‎ C.An unusual smell. D.A violent storm.‎ ‎13．What do we know about Surtsey?‎ A.It is a huge underwater mountain range.‎ B.It is located 20 miles off Vestmann Islands.‎ C.It took Surtsey almost one year to come into being.‎ D.It was produced by the strong forces within the earth.‎ ‎14．Why is studying Surtsey important to scientists?‎ A.It tells more about the formation of the earth.‎ B.It warns people of dangerous volcanic eruptions.‎ C.It leads to the discovery of new energy sources.‎ D.It helps predict when new islands will be formed.‎ ‎15．What is the passage mainly about?‎ A.How an island was born.‎ B.Where Surtsey rose from.‎ C.What are the secrets to volcanic eruptions?‎ D.Why the Mid-Atlantic Ridge is important.‎ 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。    ‎ The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot.      16      But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.‎ ‎●When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?”      17      ‎ ‎●Hit the streets with confidence.      18      Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.‎ ‎●Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don't get discouraged.‎ ‎●     19      Each interview that you get on the street shouldn't be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won't be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten.      20      ‎ ‎●If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don't leave work without them.‎ A. Limit your time.‎ B. As you approach people, be polite.‎ C. If you don't own a camera, you can buy one.‎ D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.‎ E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.‎ F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.‎ G. With a question like this, you will get more than a ＂Yes＂ or ＂No＂ reply.‎ 第二部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） ‎ ‎  阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I used to be a very self-centered person, but in the past two years I have really changed.I have started to think about other people 　21　 I think about myself.I am happy that I am becoming a 　22　 person.‎ I think my 　23　 started when I was at Palomar College.At first, I just wanted to get my 　24　 and be left alone.I thought I was smarter than everyone else, so I hardly ever 　25　 to anyone in my classes.By the end of my first semester, I was really 　26　.It seemed as if everyone but me had made friends and was having fun.So I tried a(n) 　27　.I started asking people around me how they were doing, and if they were having trouble I 　28　 to help.That was really a big 　29　 for me.By the end of the year, I had several new friends, and two of 　30　 are still my best friends today.‎ A bigger cause of my new 　31　, however, came when I took a part-time job at Vista Nursing Home.One old lady there who had Alzheimer's disease became my 　32　.Every time I came into her room, she was so 　33　 because she thought I was her daughter.Her real daughter never 　34　 her, so I took her place.She let me 　35　 that making others feel good made me feel good too.When she died, I was 　36　, but I was also very grateful to her.‎ I think I am a much 　37　 person today than I used to be, and I hope I will not 　38　 these experiences.They have 　39　 me to care about other people more than about myself.I 　40　 who I am today, and I could not say that a few years ago.‎ ‎21． A.since B.before C.or D.unless ‎22． A.famous B.simple C.different D.skilled ‎23． A.education B.career C.tour D.change ‎24． A.balance B.homework C.degree D.interest ‎25． A.talked B.wrote C.lied D.reported ‎26． A.careful B.lonely C.curious D.guilty ‎27． A.argument B.game C.experiment D.defence ‎28． A.dared B.offered C.hesitated D.happened ‎29． A.dream B.problem C.duty D.step ‎30． A.us B.which C.them D.whom ‎31． A.attitude B.hobby C.hope D.luck ‎32． A.friend B.partner C.guide D.guest ‎33． A.polite B.happy C.strange D.confident ‎34． A.bothered B.answered C.visited D.trusted ‎35． A.explain B.guess C.declare D.see ‎36． A.homeless B.heartbroken C.bad-tempered D.hopeless ‎37． A.quieter B.busier C.better D.richer ‎38． A.forget B.face C.improve D.analyze ‎39． A.forced B.preferred C.ordered D.taught ‎40． A.miss B.like C.wonder D.expect 第II卷 第二部分  英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）    阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ A motto is a sentence or a phrase 　41　can inspire us especially when we are 　42　(face) with difficulties.
