2018-2019学年内蒙古包头市第四中学高二上学期第二次月考英语试题 Word版

包头四中2018-2019学年度 第一学期 月考 高二英语 ‎ 满分120分 时间100分钟 命题人： ‎ ‎ ‎ 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分）略 第二部分 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和D）中，选出最佳选 A ‎    If you want to be a citizen scientist，the National Science Foundation（NSF） has got you covered．NSF supports citizen scientists across all areas of science，whether your passion（热情）is scanning the night sky，exploring your own backyard or playing video games．‎ Join a Flock of Birders ‎   eBird is an online platform that allows bird﹣watchers to record their sightings on a massive online database．With more than 100，000 active users，eBird involves bird population，distribution（分布）and habitat that users can explore in real time．In May 2015，there were 9.5 million records uploaded．‎ Count Every Drop ‎    The Community Collaborative Rain and Snow Network is the largest provider of daily rainfall observations in the United States．Volunteers set up rain instruments and record data every time a rain，or snow storm passes．Data is organized and shared on the CoCoRaHS website，and used by the National Weather Service，scientists，farmers and so on．‎ Join the Plankton Party ‎    Without plankton（浮游生物），life in the ocean would not exist．These tiny things form the base of the food chain and play an important role in the global carbon cycle．Plankton Party encourages citizen scientists to identify images snapped（拍照）by the ISIIS，an underwater robot．Classifying the images helps researchers understand ‎ plankton diversity，habitat and behavior． ‎ ‎21．What can bird﹣watchers do with eBird？　   　‎ A．Watch birds through satellites．‎ B．Choose their favorite birds．‎ C．Upload their sightings to a database．‎ D．Observe the night sky ‎22．Which subject can you learn about if you join Count Every Drop？　   　‎ A．Farming．‎ B．Biology．‎ C．Animals．‎ D．Weather．‎ ‎23．What's the intention of the Plankton Party？　   　‎ A．To help researchers to learn about plankton．‎ B．To raise citizens' interest in plankton．‎ C．To inform citizens of how ocean life survives．‎ D．To tell us what ISIIS does with ocean life．‎ B Do dogs understand us?‎ ‎ Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think. ‎ ‎ A border collie(牧羊犬) named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩). ‎ ‎ In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words. ‎ ‎ In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before ‎ and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before. ‎ ‎ The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive. ‎ ‎ Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种)known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months. ‎ ‎ It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return! ‎ ‎24. From paragraph 2 we know that . ‎ A. animals are as clever as human beings B. dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzees ‎ C. chimpanzees have very good word-learning skills ‎ D. dogs have similar 'learning abilities as 3-year-old children ‎ ‎25. Both experiments show that . ‎ A. Rico is smart enough to get all commands right ‎ B. Rico can recognize different things including toys ‎ C. Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematics ‎ D. Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them ‎ ‎26. Which of the following statements is true? ‎ A. The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities. ‎ B. Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training. ‎ C. The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects. ‎ D. Rico is born to understand its owner's commands. ‎ ‎27. What does the writer want to tell us? ‎ A. To train your dog. B. To talk to your dog. ‎ C. To be friendly to your dog. D. To be careful with your dog.‎ ‎  ‎ C One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.‎ ‎“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice‎ ‎University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”‎ Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.‎ Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.‎ Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”‎ ‎28. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?‎ ‎ A. Students may easily get addicted to it.‎ ‎ B. Clothes bought online may not fit.‎ ‎ C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.‎ ‎ D. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.‎ ‎29. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.‎ A. their shopping experiences B. a program at their university C. some shop-owners’ complaints D. the Xbox 360 video game player ‎30. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?‎ A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning C. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes D. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanning ‎31. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?‎ A. It is perfectly developed. B. It will have its market share.‎ C. It is limited to women shoppers. D. It is like a kind of video game player.‎ D NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.‎ Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.‎ In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. ‎ The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it. ‎ Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.‎ ‎"Some memories can ruin people's lives . They come back to you when you don't ‎ want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard‎ Medical ‎School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering." ‎ But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. ‎ ‎ "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist. []‎ ‎32. The passage is mainly about . ‎ A. a new medical invention ‎ B. a new research on the pill ‎ C. a way of erasing painful memories ‎ D. an argument about the research on the pill ‎ ‎33. The drug tested on people can . ‎ A. cause the brain to fix memories ‎ B. stop people remembering bad experiences ‎ C. prevent body producing certain chemicals ‎ D. Wipe out the emotional effects of memories ‎ ‎34. We can infer from the passage that . ‎ A. people doubt the effects of the pills ‎ B. the pill will stop people's bad experiences ‎ C. taking the pill will do harm to people's health ‎ D. the pill has probably been produced in America ‎ ‎35. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with? ‎ A. Some memories can ruin people's lives. ‎ B. People want to get rid of bad memories. ‎ C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others. ‎ D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.‎ 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。‎ Humor plays an important role in relationships. In new relationships, humor can be an effective tool not just for attracting the other person but also for overcoming any awkwardness or embarrassment. 36_________________‎ Sharing the pleasure of humor creates a sense of connection between two people. When you laugh with one another, you create a positive tie between you. This tie acts as a strong buffer(缓冲) against stress, disagreements, disappointments, and bad patches in a relationship. And laughter really is infectious. 37 _________ But don’t worry if you’re not naturally a lighthearted, humorous person----you can learn to access your playful side and develop your sense of fun.‎ Like any tool, humor can be used in negative as well as positive ways. Humor can only help you overcome relationship problems when both partners can understand the joke. 38 _______ If your partner or friend isn’t likely to appreciate the joke, don’t say or do it. Humor in relationships should be equally fun and enjoyable for both people.‎ Don’t use humor to cover up other emotions. 39_________  That’s when it is used as a cover for avoiding, rather than coping with, painful emotions. You can be funny about the truth, but covering up the truth isn’t funny. When you use humor and playfulness as a cover for other emotions, you create confusion and mistrust in your relationships.‎ ‎  40________   The important thing is to find enjoyable activities that help you embrace your playful nature with other people. As humor and play become an unseparated part of your life, you’ll begin to find daily opportunities for using your new-found skills to help build and maintain your relationships.‎ A. Humor can help you and your loved one.‎ B. There are times when humor is not healthy.‎ C. It’s important to be sensitive to the other person.‎ D. It’s never too late to develop your humorous side.‎ E. The more you joke, play, and laugh----the easier it becomes.‎ F. Just hearing someone laugh can make you smile and join in on the fun.‎ G. In longer-term relationships, humor can keep things exciting and fresh.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节完形填空 阅读下面短文，从短文后各小题所给选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I loved working with my dad, but I hated the summer job he gave me.
